Chapter 641 Monk Bian comes from the north

There are really too many contents displayed in the park, and most of them are novel and attractive. They are worthy of being called the richest things in Nandu. They cannot be understood clearly through a simple tour.

Therefore, many powerful people from Guanzhong and the local area continued to visit the park in the next few days. They lingered in the park and carefully understood the content and profit prospects of each investment project. I only felt that each investment project was very valuable. It's tempting, everyone wants to join in and get a piece of the pie.

However, except for the first day, Li Tai will naturally not go to the park in person for guidance and introduction in the next few days. After all, the General Manager's Office still has many backlogged government affairs waiting to be processed.

Of course, while handling government affairs, Li Tai is also paying close attention to the progress of investment promotion work. After all, many of the government decrees and development plans require money and food to be in place before they can be officially launched.

In the next few days, various investment contracts were concluded one after another. New territory means new opportunities. Even if we don’t talk about the various profitable advanced crafts in Wuhuayuan, just the current basic crafts such as making farm tools, there are many new people in the jurisdiction of the current General Administration. Against the background of a large amount of land reclamation demand, the profits are also not thin.

As various contracts are concluded one after another, the amount of investment received by the Jingzhou General Manager's Office is also rising.

Previously, the Taiwan government issued a quota of 2.3 million pieces of silk for the export of Guanzhong's assets this year. Li Tai did not know what kind of accounting the Taiwan government used to draw up such a quota, but based on this alone, the Taiwan government could directly Twenty-three Gao Aocao were collected.

As for how to achieve this amount and let the local tycoons in Guanzhong pay freely, that is what Li Tai and the Jingzhou Governor's Office need to consider, while the Taiwan Government just sits there and divides the spoils. This deal is not very cost-effective. If someone under Li Tai is so capable, he will definitely not doubt him and trust him wholeheartedly!

However, under the inducement of the Investment Promotion Association, the amount of funds pledged by the powerful people in Guanzhong soon exceeded the amount issued by the Taiwan government, and quickly exceeded the three million horse mark, heading towards a higher amount.

It is a common perception that Kansai is poor and weak, but the main reason is the overall regional difference. Due to the perennial war and turmoil in Kansai, the overall productivity development and population of the society lag far behind Hebei.

However, these powerful people who have settled in Guanzhong for generations and supported various tribes can also ensure orderly production during the war years. For example, the Mao brothers, who were prominent when Xiaowu entered Guanzhong, were famous for their wealthy families. Many Luoyang dignitaries looked up to them. of life. The Diaoyin Liu family in northern Shaanxi paid half a million bolts of silk just to board Li Tai's ship. This was a few years ago when Li Tai's power was not strong.

Therefore, the poverty of the Western Wei Dynasty and the poverty of the Bafu do not mean the poverty of Guanzhong. Not to mention these powerful men, Yu Wentai only scratched a layer of oil on the temple in the old year, which greatly advanced his plan to rebuild the Sixth Army.

In the next more than half a month, the amount of investment continued to rise. After reaching more than 4.3 million horses, the growth momentum gradually slowed down. Compared with the amount given by the Taiwan government, it exceeded the full amount. More than two million pieces of silk.

As for the excess portion, the share that needs to be turned over to the Taiwan government is not one-tenth, but the proportion of the commission that needs to be increased according to each step. Even if you don't take into account the subsequent increase in the share, for now, if you want to transport these contract funds to Jingzhou, you need to draw nearly 600,000 pieces of silk to the Taifu!

Seeing this comparison of numbers, Li Tai couldn't help but feel a little distressed for a while.

He even wanted to find the lucky man who killed Gao Aocao in the Western Wei army, and help him collect debts from Daxingtai. You just casually acquired sixty Gao Aocao, but in the end you still owed the small soldier's bounty to the clan. Destroying the country and destroying the whole country will lead to no account. Isn’t it a bit too inappropriate to be a human being?

Although these contracts are still just investment letters of intent, the numbers on paper still need to be implemented and may be returned at any time.

However, Li Tai is not worried about this. Nowadays, there are not many people in Guanzhong who dare to offend him for this. What's more, the interests of the Tai government are also involved. As for Daxing Tai's virtue, who dares to make him happy in vain? , then you shouldn’t grab people’s feces and urine!

Regarding such an investment result, Pei Xia, the secretary in charge of organizing the records, was astonished for a moment. Looking at the series of astonishing figures, he murmured: "I didn't expect that the wealth of all the families in Guanzhong turned out to be so rich!"

Although he had made a statement to close the relationship with Li Tai when he first met him, as the envoy stationed here by the Taiwan government, he did not blatantly cover up the cheating and falsified accounts. He still faithfully transcribed and compiled the results of this investment and wrote them down quickly The horse was presented to Huazhou Chengtai Fuzhong.

Although Pei Xia maintains his integrity, the people in the Taiwanese government do not believe in him. When this report arrived at the Taifu, because the content was so shocking, some of the exaggerated figures were quickly spread throughout the Taifu through various channels.

"More than four million bolts of silk? How is this possible! Even though Taiyuan was prosperous and admired by the masses, the people in Guanzhong are still suffering from many problems..."

When many people mentioned this topic, they all subconsciously shook their heads in disbelief. More than four million pieces of silk would be piled up as high as Mount Huashan. Even if Guanzhong has so much wealth, who would be willing to transport it to Jingzhou, which is blocked by Guanshan Mountain? This is simply challenging people’s cognition!

Not only these unrelated spectators were talking about it and didn't believe it, but even Daxingtai and several important officials of the Taiwan government were stunned when they first saw this number. Daxingtai even had some He said sourly: "Guanxi Haoyou actually favored Li Boshan so much, and Hao supported him to establish rule in the southeast..."

Guanzhong is several years old, and grain prices have been falling year by year. When new grains came on the market last autumn, the price of one stone of grain reached the low price of a bolt of silk. If the more than four million bolts of silk are converted into grain, it would be more than four million shi, which is enough to empty out the entire Guanzhong public and private grain reserves at once!

So it's no wonder that Yu Wentai is so fond of it. As the leader of the Bafu, Da Xingtai rarely has the opportunity to dispatch so much money, food and supplies at once!

But when he thought that more than 600,000 of them belonged to him, Yu Wentai no longer cared about the taste. Because these were still agreements on paper, he immediately sent envoys to visit various places in Guanzhong to confirm with those involved whether it was true. If this is true, then the share supplied to the Taiwan government must be handed over as soon as possible.

Although it feels good to be able to reap profits without doing anything, but compared to these commissions, the larger amount of principal is more attractive. Therefore, while Yu Wentai sent people to Jingzhou to inquire deeply about the details of investment promotion, he also asked the government officials to seriously discuss whether Li Tai's various investment promotion methods were possible to be implemented in Guanzhong.

However, these internal affairs can be discussed in the long term. On the contrary, the various personnel information coming from the Eastern Wei Dynasty now affects Yuwentai's mood even more.

He originally heard that Gao Huan's second son Gao Yang was a foolish and ugly man, and he was still thinking that this son would be difficult to control in the face of the successive deaths of his father and brother. Perhaps there would soon be a more serious rebellion in the Eastern Wei Dynasty than the Hou Jing rebellion. of civil unrest.

However, the news that came one after another showed that the rumors seemed to be untrue. Facing such a complicated and bad situation, the second son Gao Huan was not helpless. Instead, he made a wise decision and successfully stabilized the Jin Dynasty with the help of Gao Huan and his old subordinates. Yang times.

Yuwentai was quite disappointed with this, but the subsequent developments gradually showed a turn for the better. The most critical point is that Gao Yang does not seem to be satisfied with stabilizing the current situation, but continues to promote the plan to seize the Eastern Wei State that his brother had prepared when he was still alive, and is more radical than his brother.

The change of political power in any period is a very important event. With Gao Huan's great reputation and Gao Cheng's cleverness and cunning, one must be cautious when facing this matter. However, this Gao Yang had no outstanding achievements before his brother's death. In this world, he wanted to do something treacherous as soon as he took over. This was naturally another great opportunity for Yu Wentai.

Therefore, he was currently paying close attention to the developments in the Eastern Wei Dynasty, and was too lazy to personally deal with some internal affairs issues. After paying a little attention to the investment promotion in Jingzhou, I did not continue to follow up. When the time entered May, I went to the river defense front line in person to catch the river wind blowing from the east and smell it carefully. .

This is the way the world is, and people from each class have their own problems that they need to face and what they focus on.

Just like Li Tai is not too worried about whether the local tycoons from Suilu who are still stationed in the countryside will secretly amass armored troops to subvert the rule of the Jingzhou Governor's Office over their hometown, he is also more concerned about foreign affairs issues recently.

After the war in Huainan ended last year, Li Tai came to Jingling again to force Xiao Laoqi from Jiangling to give in and sue for peace, and then led his troops back to the town to recuperate. But Xiao Laoqi was also a very thief. On the one hand, he sent envoys to the Western Wei Dynasty to become a vassal, and he did not forget to show his favor to Li Tai. Working together inside and outside, Xiao Yu was defeated and killed in one fell swoop.

The reason why Liang Wang Xiao Jin completely surrendered to the Western Wei Dynasty and joined the imperial court was because his brother's death made him deprived of support, which may not be enough to resist Jiangling's attack. Only by completely surrendering to the Western Wei Dynasty can we obtain more comprehensive protection.

This time when he entered the court, because of his respectful attitude, Daxingtai expressed his intention to condemn Xiao Yi, the king of eastern Hunan, for torturing and killing his nephew. Although the practical significance of this move is better than nothing, it also reflects the importance that the Tai government attaches to King Liang.

During this period, in addition to dealing with various internal affairs, Li Tai was also paying attention and waiting for Jiangling's response. If Xiao Laoqi's response was not satisfactory, he would probably have to lead his troops to Jiangling again. However, Li Tai is not very willing to antagonize Jiang Ling at the moment, so he still hopes that Xiao Laoqi will be more sensible.

It was not until May that Jiangling finally responded and sent Wang Sengbian and others to Mianbei to apologize.
