Chapter 362 Boshan is still pure

Under Li Tai's tough request, the troops led by Wang De and Han Bao still obeyed the arrangements of the state government, obediently disarmed and moved into the camps designated by the state government.

Of course, Wang Deke, who was placed in the defense city, could not help but roar and protest all day long, as if he hated Li Tai to the core and would never give up.

Li Tai didn't care much about this. He had lost face, so what's wrong with his tough words? It should be noted that he did not restrict Wang De's personal freedom. He could leave Fangcheng at any time and lead his troops to fight with him. However, Wang De only dared to shout and complain in Fangcheng, which shows that he is fierce and cruel.

After spending several years in the Western Wei Dynasty, Li Tai's biggest feeling is that everyone is keen to establish a personality for themselves, but if you believe it, you are stupid. These old town soldiers started to enter the world since the Six Towns Mutiny, and what is left now can be said to be a big wave. The upper limit of their IQ may not be high, but their scheming is by no means simple.

For example, Penngle of the Eastern Wei Dynasty who let Yuwentai go during the Battle of Mangshan was laughed at by many people and called a fool. But Peng Le has the BUFF of reverse naming. Whoever thinks he is stupid is really stupid. Even Lao Yin and Gao Huan warned his son to beware of Peng Le.

The reason why Wang De refused to leave Fangcheng was also very simple. Once he left, if there was another violent collision between the two sides, he would be the first person responsible for forcing Longyou to rebel. Although staying here will damage your face, it can minimize the subsequent responsibilities you need to bear.

At the same time, this is also a gesture to Dugu Xin. Although I have been ordered to come, I am not targeting you because I doubt you. I believe that you will never destroy the old friendship and harm me, so I dare to come here alone.

Although Han Bao said that the junior high school would hold a grand parade in advance this year, Li Tai was shocked and realized that his idea was not comprehensive enough, but he still had to do what needed to be done.

After all, it is impossible for Longyou to fight with Guanzhong, and how Duguxin and Yuwentai will contact and negotiate next and what results they will reach will be completely inferior to the far-reaching and long-lasting impact that the reopening of the Silk Road trade route will bring to the general public here.

Therefore, after Li Tai met Han Bao once, he no longer paid special attention to them, but continued to focus on supervising and promoting the construction of his Sifang City.

Han Bao was not restricted in his personal freedom, and he was not as proud and arrogant as Wang De. He was a little curious about what Li Tai was doing in the government now. So after some inquiries, he also found the Sifang City construction site.

Seeing that the foundation frame of this building was quite huge, and the outline of the city was neatly laid out like a vegetable patch, Han Bao couldn't help but feel curious. After searching around the construction site, he came to where Supervisor Li Tai was, and couldn't help but ask: "The construction of this city by the governor of Guanbo Mountain is very consistent with the construction method. Is it to build a large garrison city? The base of the city alone is so huge. Once it is built, it will not be able to accommodate tens of thousands of soldiers."

Li Tai was delighted when he heard the inquiring meaning in Han Bao's words. He did not deliberately try to scare him, but he just said with a smile: "Qinzhou's military affairs are complete and comprehensive, so there is no need to build new cities to garrison troops." Han Shizhong The fortifications you see are actually a warehouse city for business and trade.”

Han Bao was surprised when he heard this, and continued to ask with a surprised look: "How come the merchants here are so prosperous? Do you need to build such a huge warehouse city to maintain it?"

No wonder Han Bao was so surprised. The prosperity of business is first linked to productivity. If you can't produce even the most basic goods, then there is no business! The second is the level of social stability. People are robbed when they go out, and there are wars and wars at every turn. Survival becomes a problem, and all kinds of needs and desires are gone.

In the past few years, Guanzhong did not even have the two most important elements, and its commercial activities were almost non-existent.

Han Bao had been a subordinate of the Ba Mansion for a long time, so he knew this very well, so when he saw the scale of the Cang City in front of him, he was naturally shocked. This city was even bigger than Chang'an City, the capital of the country. Even if he tried his best to imagine, he couldn't figure out how big the trade volume would be to require such a large-scale infrastructure?

"That's not the case, I'm just making preparations first..."

Li Tai did not laugh at Han Bao's fuss, but patiently told Han Bao his ideas.

Since Yuwentai sent Han Bao to Longyou to implement the plan, this shows that Han Bao should have a place in the future order of Longyou in his heart.

Although the current situation is contrary to the expectations of the Overlord, there is still room for peaceful dialogue between the two parties. Although there is some conflict between their positions at the moment, if Han Bao stays in Longyou next, Li Tai will have to deal with them in order to ensure the smooth flow of trade.

Li Tai was not worried that his plan would be plagiarized by Han Bao, because this was a plan he planned and worked hard to create based on his own situation, and the core was naturally him. The addition of others will only make the number of people involved and affected by this plan larger, but it will be difficult to replace his position.

One thing about the subordinate officials of Bafu is that they are very pragmatic and flexible. They do not insist on the idea of ​​​​focusing on agriculture and suppressing business, and they do not think that talking about interests and interests in their heads is just a dog-eat-dog and dishonorable.

Of course, this is also a cause for trouble. The Western Wei Dynasty was founded in danger. No matter what method can be used to increase fiscal revenue, it is a good method.

Therefore, when Han Bao listened to Li Tai talk about various strategies to promote the development of Longyou's trade, he did not belittle it, but listened very seriously. When he heard the method he agreed with, he couldn't help but He nodded repeatedly and couldn't help expressing his stance.

"No wonder the Lord repeatedly praises Boshan for his expertise in business construction, and for his achievements that are beyond the reach of predecessors. I always feel a sense of loss after leaving the government. Today, I have seen Boshan's planning ability, which really broadens my horizons and benefits me a lot!"

At the end, Han Bao couldn't help but praise Li Tai.

In fact, the issue of Longyou's commerce had been discussed in detail in the Taifu before. After all, seizing any opportunity to expand financial resources is a basic awareness that every official of the Taifu must have, and the deeper the experience, the higher the awareness. The business tradition and history of Longyou and Hexi have a long history, so how could the masses ignore the benefits contained in it.

But despite their many discussions, the conclusions they came to were limited, far less detailed and specific than Li Tai's plan with clear steps, and they have even begun to promote implementation.

It can't be said that the officials of the Taifu have limited intelligence. In the final analysis, they lack imagination. How can they plan something serious and specific if they have never experienced or seen it?

Hearing Han Bao relaying Yuwen Tai's praise for him, Li Tai couldn't help but laugh. You stinky black otter, you look down on me on the surface, but you still miss me behind my back. You think of my kindness again after not seeing me for a while? Although he lacks ideas, Han Bao is also very opinionated. After praising Li Tai, he quickly digested the relevant information in his heart, and soon put forward his own different views: "Longyou has been in chaos for a long time, and it still lacks the king's way of preaching. The powerful and wealthy often have the idea of ​​being guests but not subordinates. Their followers steal the local sentiment and abuse people for power. Boshan, although your plan is good, it does not seem to involve the local situation this time. It is good to promote business and enrich the people, but it must be carefully identified, judged its urgency, and balanced its quantity. It is the original intention of governance to cut off the strong and help the weak. If the rich are always rich, the poor will become poorer. The rich are unkind and the poor are unjust. Then the country will be in trouble and the people will be in danger. The lesson is not far away." Li Tai heard Han Bao say this and couldn't help but respect him. Regardless of the intention of the person who proposed the idea of ​​equalizing the rich and the poor, it is enough to show that he is a person with conscience. He has seen very few people in this world who can pay attention to the interests and demands of the grassroots.

"Thank you for your advice, Minister Han, your words of morality are like thunder in my ears!"

Of course, Li Tai also has the idea of ​​benefiting the poor masses, and has a plan to gradually release the slaves in the temples. However, with such a large number of people pouring into society, there must be enough social resources to carry them, and the handicraft industry that will soon be prosperous with commerce can meet this requirement very well.

He also wanted to hear what Han Bao thought about this, and Han Bao immediately discussed this issue with Li Tai seriously.

Unlike the traditional farming, weaving, animal husbandry and other industries, the production resources needed have long been divided up by the local tyrants. Han Bao also believes that the flow and growth of resources brought by the emerging trade is an important opportunity to adjust the social structure. It must be controlled, coordinated and properly distributed by the government to make the distribution of social wealth tend to be equal.

After listening to Han Bao's ideas, Li Tai proposed to summon local tyrants to the center to raise their political status while reducing their local competitiveness.

In fact, the Longxi Li family was summoned to the central government based on this idea, and the five surnames and seven families in later generations who forbade marriage were gradually eliminated through this method to manage and maintain the rural order.

Li Tai had made a similar proposal to Dugu Xin before, which was to expand Dugu Xin's influence in the country through this kind of recommendation and disciple relationship from Dugu Xin's perspective. At this time, talking to Han Bao again, it was to win over more people to the central government from the perspective of the hegemony, thereby strengthening the centripetal force of all parties.

No matter from which aspect, this is a beneficial and harmless choice. If he didn't have this ability to please both sides, he wouldn't dare to eat tea and meals from both sides openly.

This idea is not new, but if it is used together with the allocation of trade resources, it is enough to disintegrate the rebellious ideas of many powerful families on this side, and reduce the difficulty of enemy management.

The two talked a lot about this, and the atmosphere of the conversation between them became harmonious again. After finishing the conversation, Han Bao returned to Fangcheng and reviewed the content of the conversation carefully. Then he took out a pen and paper and wrote quickly: "According to my opinion, Li Boshan has no intention of being disrespectful to the outside world. He still has the intention of attracting people from all over the border to the country..."
