Chapter five hundred and fortieth resettlement of the North Court generals
The two sat in the room and laughed, as if two villains had joined forces to launch a plan to destroy the world. At first, Li Siye saw the huge economic interests behind pepper and dipterocarp, but it was obviously more tempting than the economic interests.
The purpose of human is to use the pepper trade route to entangle various people together and consolidate the rule of the Anxi Jiedushi in the Qixi area. He might as well think bigger, which will help him obtain the Hexi Jiedushi to rule three towns in the future, thus driving the
The economy of the Hexi region and even Chang'an has a hundred benefits and no harm.
The idea is wonderful, but it will be difficult at the beginning. Part of the profits must be given up to let those people compete for bread crumbs and gain core competitiveness.
Li Siye solemnly held Dai Wang's shoulders and said: "You are a master of overall planning. When choosing agents in Dunhuang, Jiuquan, Wuwei, Zhangye, Lanzhou and even Chang'an and Luoyang in the future, you must consider the even balance of the various forces. Once a certain
If some forces that are not overbearing and unreasonable join in, things may turn the table upside down."
He immediately corrected his attitude and folded his hands: "We will live up to Li Zhongcheng's expectations and open the pepper trade route as soon as possible."
"Okay, you and I can encourage each other."
Li Siye came today with the intention of bringing him to Beiting to use his skills to straighten out the household registration, clear land, do a good job in renting and adjusting taxes, and then figure out a strategy for collecting commercial taxes, but now he has been convinced.
Leaving Dai Wang in Shule laid a foundation for himself in advance, and he went to Beiting to consolidate his power. This is called holding both hands hard. It's just that he didn't have a capable civilian assistant in Beiting, which was a shortcoming after all.
Dai Wang saw through the look of regret on his face, and he raised his hands knowingly and said: "I have a person I want to recommend to you. His name is Jing Shen. He is from Jiyang, Nanyang. He was reading at the age of five and could write poems at the age of nine.
At the age of 20, he entered Chang'an to be a scholar, but he was not promoted. In Tianbao's third year, he passed the Jinshi title and should still be waiting for selection in Chang'an."
"Cen Shen? Isn't he just a poet?"
Dai Wang smiled and shook his head and said: "In today's Tang Dynasty, every scholar is a poet. He is not only good at writing poems, but also has extensive knowledge and memorization. He has traveled for many years and is also proficient in household registration and taxation. He is a practical and capable person.
.If you can recruit him as your staff, he will definitely be able to help you improve Beiting's financial revenue."
Li Siye was right when he thought about it. Due to his special status, Dai Wang could only hide in the dark and could not hold an official position. He currently lacked public staff around him, such as the Secretary of the Marching Army. Cen Shen happened to meet him, so he had to find a way to bring him in.
.
It's a pity that the Beiting Jiedushi did not leave a backyard in Chang'an City. The newspaper sent by Anxi Liu's backyard had to be copied to Beiting, and then there was no more.
For the time being, he could only use the Miji store in Chang'an West City as a backyard. After returning to Beiting, he wrote a letter asking Michagan to find a way to contact Cen Shen and give him travel expenses to come to Beiting to find a job.
The evening sun slanted through the window paper, casting an afterglow on Dai Wang's wide table. The jars on the wine table had been emptied and the cups were gone. Li Siye stood up with his hands on his knees, looking tired and saying in a sad tone.
"I left Shule this time. I'm afraid it will take a long time to come back. Today is my farewell. Remember, don't force things that can't be done. Gao Xianzhi is not a good person. If he discovers your intentions, he will not do anything.
scruples."
Li Siye's suspicion is justified. Nine out of ten generals are greedy for money. The remaining one who is generous and generous is holding back his energy and preparing to rebel. Even if Gao Xianzhi knew the value of Xiao Bolu to the Indian trade routes, he would not have the leisure to build any trade routes.
, but that doesn’t stop him from grabbing all the things you’ve made ready-made, and then they’ll just be making wedding clothes for others.
"Please rest assured, I have my own sense of discretion."
"That's good, I'll take my leave."
He straightened his head, pushed open the door and walked out, only to see Qiu'e and Daorou standing by the door on the left and right, like female figurines buried in the tomb passage, and then they realized what they were doing and stepped away.
"Qiu'e," Li Siye waved his hand and said, "keep an eye on him and don't let him act too randomly."
Qiu'e didn't know why, but she still nodded.
"Dorou, let's go."
…
Seven days after the full moon feast of Li Siye's son, they officially moved their family from Shule Town to Tingzhou City. I remember that when he moved from Chang'an to Kucha, he only bought a carriage. When he moved from Kucha to Shule
At that time, they used a horse-drawn carriage and rented two ox-carts. By the time they moved to Beiting, the starting team had already loaded seven full carts of goods, all of which were the personal belongings of Li Twelve Niang and Li Mei'er. Li Siye's own belongings
All the belongings are on those three precious horses.
He rarely rides the Zhaoye Jade Lion, and is reluctant to let it carry even heavy objects. Hei Pang and Qing Zui feel ashamed in front of it.
What he prepared for Twelve Niangs was a carriage with three or four layers of cotton mattresses, many folded baby diapers, and cradle hanging on the top. The servants at home either rode animals or walked.
Not only did he have to travel, but he also had to cook porridge in a casserole from time to time and take care of his wife's three meals a day.
The journey was naturally hard, and Li Siye kept returning to cheer his wife up. Others in the family also tried their best to support her, and finally no one was left behind.
When they arrived in Tingzhou, it was already a month later. The child's health was not greatly affected, and instead looked stronger. On the other hand, the Twelfth Mother looked very weak and tired, and her lips were as white as swollen.
Li Siye ordered the driver to park the Xi chariot outside the inner hall of the inner courtyard of the Jieduzheng's residence. He first ordered people to use charcoal to warm the room, and then laid out the wooden couch. He personally opened the double doors of the Xi chariot and put the bedding on it.
The lady hugged her down, quickly stepped across the threshold, and held her on the couch in the corridor on the right.
Twelve Niang stretched out her arms around her husband's neck, looking at his face with loving eyes, watching him carefully put her on the bed, and then carefully take Li Zuoguo out of the cradle and put her on the bed.
On the inside of the bed, mother and son lie side by side, like a continuation of life, and also like his retreat.
He is no longer a simple soul from the future, looking at the world with a detached gaze. After having a wife and children, he has completely integrated into it, and his previous life seems to be an unreachable dream.
After settling down his family, Li Siye settled down and began to take charge of the work of Beiting. His first priority was to place his people where they needed to be. This was not a simple and mindless thing. Tianshan Army and
The Yiwu army originally had military envoys, namely Zhao Jue and Cao Lingzhong.
The Yiwu army only had 3,000 men, so Cao Lingzhong did not need to replace him. The Tianshan army had 5,000 men. He wanted to replace Zhao Di with Tian Zhen, but Zhao Di was already a veteran in Beiting and he had not made any mistakes. Simply removing him would cause trouble.
The dissatisfaction in the army affected morale. He could only be promoted openly and secretly, and he was promoted to deputy governor without real power.
Duan Xiushi should also be appointed as the envoy of the Han Navy with 12,000 troops. This military envoy was originally concurrently held by the Jiedushi. Now Duan Xiushi is suddenly placed here, which will cause dissatisfaction with the other two deputy military envoys. I have endured a long time in the Han Navy.
It took us so many years to become the deputy military envoy. If you suddenly find such a person to lead us, who can swallow this?
He briefly got to know Zhou Yi and Zang Xiyan. Zhou Yi was Gai Jiayun's fellow villager and was promoted to deputy governor by him. After Wang Guangjian became the Jiedushi, he might have had a problem with Gai Jiayun in the past, so he brought him to
He was demoted to the deputy envoy of the Han Navy. Zang Xiyan was even more extraordinary. He came from a family of generals. His great-grandfather Zang Man was a former Sui cavalry general, and his grandfather Zang Chong was the general councilor of the Taizong Dynasty and the governor-general of Lingzhou. This history continues to this day.
In the first generation, the cousins and brothers of the Zang family all served as generals in various parts of the Tang Dynasty, the highest being deputy envoys of Jiedu, and no matter how bad they were, they were the governor of a state. It can be said that the whole family was serving as officials.
Therefore, these two people had to be arranged well. After careful consideration, Li Siye promoted Zhou Yi to the position of Marching Sima, and Zang Xiyan to the position of Deputy Protector and Jiedu. The positions of deputy envoys freed up in this way gave Duan Xiushi the opportunity to be promoted after he became the envoy.
Newcomers establish prestige.
All these people had been promoted, and the legendary hero Guo Ziyi had no reason not to be promoted. He decided to propose to the court that Guo Ziyi be promoted to deputy envoy of Tongjiedu and governor of Tongxizhou.
