Chapter 897 calculation
Under the night, Yang Jiyuan's old face was a little hot, and his own calculations were clearly seen by the young grandson-in-law after all.
This is not close to Weng Zhang. Although the Yang family in Langshan belonged to Qin Lang earlier, Qin Lang used swords and guns to subdue them at the beginning, but the Yang family was a little unconvinced after all, or it was He was very unwilling to let Qin Lang **** away the family business that several generations of the Yang family had worked so hard to build up in Lang Son.
Granddaughter Chongniang married Qin Lang, it was just an expedient measure at the beginning, it was a helpless compromise, although old man Yang also loved this granddaughter, but women are outsiders after all, marrying from her husband, the water thrown by her married daughter. Yang Chongniang is now called Qin Yang's family. This is not patriarchal, but that's how it is.
Family is male surname after all.
For the sake of the family, Lao Yang can give his granddaughter to Qin Lang without hesitation, so of course he will not give up on Yang because of his granddaughter's concubine, because of his granddaughter's feelings or status in the Qin family. The interests that the family should have.
In the eyes of outsiders, Lao Yang is a Han, and his granddaughter married Qin Lang as his concubine. The Yang family in Langshan was the first native of Wu'an Prefecture to belong to Qin Lang. Now they are still serving as Sima in Wu'an Prefecture. They should be Qin Lang. The core of Lang's confidants is closely related to Qin Lang's interests.
But in fact, Yang Jiyuan has never been able to enter this inner circle, and he himself is actually not very active. He is afraid of being completely annexed by the Qin family, and deliberately wants to maintain some independence. In the end, Qin Lang still broke his promise after all.
Tweeting the hereditary governor of Lang Son became the county magistrate, and then became the no longer hereditary Sima of Wu'an Prefecture. Lang Son is now full of powerful people from the Qin family.
In a sense, Yang Jiyuan thought that Qin Lang broke his promise to him, and even oppressed the Yang family from the very beginning, so when he saw the emperor of Chang'an in the Central Plains attacking Qin Lang, he actually felt a little gloating in his heart , and even looked forward to some conflicts between the two husbands and sons-in-law. If Qin Lang really recklessly acted recklessly and offended the emperor and was punished, or even his fief was taken back, then for the Yang family, this might be a big deal instead. Chance.
An opportunity to get rid of Qin Lang and become the Lord of Lang Son again.
It's just that although Yang Jiyuan is also an old, treacherous guy, Qin Lang is not that kind of stunned young man. Under his young skin, he has been a man for two generations and is well versed in the world, let alone the ten years in the Tang Dynasty. Pretty grueling.
The Yang family, as a Han Chinese who has moved southward for six or seven generations, is called a Southerner by the people in the Central Plains, and called a guest by the slang and barbarians here.
Compared with the new generation of immigrants from the Central Plains, these southerners are actually a new ethnic group. They come from the Central Plains, but they are already a little out of touch with the Central Plains. is welcome.
On the contrary, they think that these new immigrants are here to grab their territory and occupy their resources. In many places, these guests and the natives are actually on the same line.
Qin Lang hopes to integrate them. After all, the roots are of the same origin, and the language, culture and customs are almost the same, so he has a natural sense of closeness. Therefore, although he is not in Wu'an Prefecture, he has always encouraged the new immigrants in Wu'an Prefecture to give priority to those southerners. Marriage and intermarriage form a more stable interest group instead of separate confrontation.
Many southern families supported Qin Lang's policy and married one after another. However, the Yang family did well on the surface, but in fact they were not very active.
The granddaughter Yang Chongniang became Qin Lang's concubine, another granddaughter became Huang Biao's successor, and several other granddaughters also married into Wu'an Prefecture's vassals, either as wives or concubines, and the Yang family also married Some of the daughters of the Qin family vassals.
Not to mention, Qin Lang also deliberately took Yang Chongniang's father and brothers to Chang'an, and arranged for them to serve as officials in the Ministry, or to study in the Imperial College, or to be guards in the Three Guards of the East Palace.
Yang Jiyuan's other sons are now also assigned to work in Wu'an Prefecture, and most of their grandchildren are also studying in prefectural and county schools.
The Qin family invested in developing some minerals in Lang Son with the Yang family, and established workshops. The Yang family also took advantage of it, and treated them well in all aspects.
In fact, most of the younger generation of the Yang family are relatively satisfied with the status quo, especially the branch of Yang Chongniang's father who has already entered the capital. They feel that they can return to the Central Plains, and even go to Chang'an. This is a sign of the strength of the family. .
Ancestors were also forced to move south to Lingnan, all the way to Jiaozhou, and finally retreated to Lang Son after the Jiaoman rebellion failed. He believes that being a phoenix tail is better than being a chicken head, but Mr. Yang always believes that it is better to be a chicken head than a phoenix tail. In the past, the Yang family was the overlord of dozens of miles, but now they have to bow to the Qin family everywhere. Sticking to the ear, the old man can't turn the corner.
On the surface, the Yang family is still the old man's one-spoken family, but in fact, the internal division is serious. Yang Jiyuan's brother Yang Jizhen died in the battle with the Qin family, so Yang Jizhen's family has always held great hatred for the Qin family. It is also resolutely against the Qin family.
And Yang Chongniang's father, as the son of the Yang family, saw the wider world outside in Chang'an, and deeply realized the insignificance of the Yang family, so he had no intention of fighting against the Qin family at all, and thought that he should actively embrace the Qin family with an open mind. Taking the initiative to integrate into the Qin family and becoming an important retainer of the Qin family's fiefdom in Wu'an Prefecture, so that the future of the Yang family can be brighter.
And Yang Chongniang's other uncles and brothers also have different opinions. Some think that the current situation is good, and some think that the previous situation is good. Some people want to get rid of the Qin family and develop mines and build workshops by themselves. Now that the technology is available, there is no need for the Qin family to take a share of the pie.
Some people were very dissatisfied with Qin Lang's son being named the hereditary county magistrate of Lang Son, thinking that this robbed the interests of the Yang family.
The old man is still there, so although the voices below are mixed, the old man is still the master of the Yang family.
Although Qin Lang has not been in fiefdom for a few years, he has been keeping a close eye on a big family like the Yang family. He is very clear about the current situation of the Yang family, understands the old man's thoughts, and understands the differences among the younger generation of the Yang family. .
The Yang family is actually not a threat, and will never be a threat to the Qin family. They resisted back then, but they were quickly defeated. It's just that Qin Lang doesn't want to regard them as opposites, uniting the majority, this is the best strategy, so as to be more powerful, if he blindly eliminates the differences, then he will make more and more enemies, and himself will become more and more powerful. more isolated.
This is like Yang Jian and Yang Guang. Yang Jian was the prime minister of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and his daughter was one of several queen mothers of the Northern Zhou Dynasty. The Yang family was only one of the core families of the Northern Zhou Dynasty. Although Yang Jian worships Buddhism and has never fought much, what he knows best is making friends and sharing the benefits together, so he can quickly monopolize the government and usurp the Yuwen family's throne easily.
Afterwards, although another empress dowager's father, Wei Chijiong, rebelled and once annexed Yizhou and other dozens of prefectures to rebel, in fact most of the core families in the Northern Zhou Dynasty supported Yang Jian because Yang Jian could take care of the interests of more people.
So in the end Yang Jian succeeded in usurping the throne. Later generations said that Yang Jian was the easiest person to win the world in the history of China.
On the contrary, Yang Guangna was born with a golden key in his mouth. When he succeeded to the throne, the Sui Dynasty ended the division of the world for hundreds of years, and opened the golden age in the hands of his father. When he was emperor, he was a national power Strong and prosperous, the most in hundreds of years.
However, such a large family business has only been tossed in the hands of Yang Guang for more than ten years. In the end, he tossed the entire Sui Dynasty, and even his own life. Not only Yang Xuangan who once helped Yang Guang's confidant Prime Minister Yang Su's sons all rebelled against him, even his most trusted recruiter, Xiaoguo Army, also rebelled against him, and the one who killed him in the end was the son of Yu Wenshu, whom he had always trusted the most Yu Wenhua and brothers.
Why?
After all, Yang Jian is a man with long sleeves and good at dancing, and he knows how to share benefits best. The premise of his usurping the Zhou Dynasty is to guarantee the interests of those nobles and high-ranking officials in the Northern Zhou Dynasty. His interests will not be affected, and he can even be promoted, so everyone has no objections.
And why did Yang Guang lose? Because he has lofty aspirations and is determined to build a great cause, he thinks about reform all day long, and reform is actually a cake on the plate of vested interest groups. He reuses upstarts such as Nanren, but he thinks all day long about robbing and suppressing the Guanlong Group. Forgot that it was the root of his Yang family.
I dug my own wall foundation every day, and finally dug my own wall and collapsed.
Great ambitions, but no talent to match, soon ruined the prosperous world that Yang Jian worked so hard to build.
As the saying goes, if you get the right way, you will get more help, but if you lose the right way, you will get little help. Qin Lang believes that this way is actually very particular. If it is more simple, it is actually possible to exchange this way for benefits. As long as the benefits are shared, then you can get help from many people , If you don't share, others will lose their interests, and they will all come against you.
Many of Yang Guang's major reforms were the redistribution of interests. During this process, the Guanlong Group, the foundation and core of the Sui Dynasty, was always suppressed. in this way.
Yang Jian also changed, but Yang Jian always wins over a large number of people and suppresses a small number of people, but Yang Guang insists on one person confronting the whole world.
Later, Li Yuan, Yang Guang's aunt and cousin, was very smart. He imitated Yang Jian everywhere and insisted on using Yang Guang as a negative teaching material. Hundreds of thousands of Turkic people would not easily award honorary officials, and Li Yuan often awarded hundreds of thousands of rewards at a time. Therefore, when the world's heroes were fighting in chaos, the world's aristocratic families defected to Li Yuan one after another.
"Mr. Yang, during my expedition to Juding this time, Tonghai County was newly established in Nanzhong. Recently, Governor Cheng Chumo sent a letter saying that Cuan Hongda, the governor of Kunzhou, took the initiative to assign Yuxi in the northwest of Tonghai City to the jurisdiction of Tonghai Mansion. It is said that a There is a super-large copper mine with huge reserves and easy mining. The Tonghai Governor's Mansion is preparing to attract investment and cooperate with Tonghai Mansion to mine this copper mine. I wonder if Mr. Yang is willing to join us? If you are interested, you can go with the Qin family. The prospect It's impressive."
Yang Jiyuan looked sideways at Qin Lang. The expression on Qin Lang's face was not very clear under the night wind, but his words were worth pondering. Qin Lang clearly saw through his thoughts, why did he show his favor like this?
