Chapter 1078 Governance
The wind in Shuobei is biting, which makes the cattle and sheep return to their sheds, makes the horses' manes rise, makes the men frown, and makes the girls' faces turn red. The yellow sand dances wildly, and the sky and the earth are unclear.

Wang·Direct Bachelor of Longtuge·Chaoyi Lang·Shaoqing of Guanglu Temple·Quanzhi Henan Road Comfort Envoy and Secretary of Yanzhou Affairs·Xiaoqiwei·Specially given purple clothes, wearing purple robes and mink fur cloaks , because of the strong wind, he did not wear an official hat with wings. He only wore his hair in a high bun, a green jade hairpin, and official boots, standing on the gentle slope of the hill.

His hands were in his sleeves, and his coat was rolled up in the wind.

"Fan Gong, Di Gong, please go back. The cold wind is biting. You two are both very young, so you'd better stay away."

The two old men looked deeply at the Khitan military camp opposite, wanting to fight...

This is the Nuanquan Peak on the border between Xiazhou and Khitan. A considerable number of soldiers and horses are fighting here, and they have even fought against each other during the previous peace talks.

Wang Yan wrote repeatedly, requesting the Northern Expedition and cooperating with the peace talks. After striking out with Xixia, they directly drove the army over. Without saying a word, they launched an attack on the Khitan defenders here. There was a small group battle involving tens of thousands of people, and the enemy was forced to abandon their armor. After the talks, the Khitans increased their troops to Nuanquan Peak. The peace talks went smoothly, and no coins were needed.

"Zi Yan, you made it clear to me, when are you going to take action?" Fan Zhong asked without knowing the reason, with a solemn expression.

Di Qing on the side also looked over, waiting for Wang Yan's answer.

Wang Yan pretended to be silent for a moment, and then slowly spoke: "If there is discord this time, it is time to fight the Khitan. Yelv Zongzhen is dead and Yelu Hongji has ascended the throne. This is a God-given opportunity. If we can't fight now, we have lost it. If there is a good opportunity, there is no need to look for a good time to fight again. If it is a good day to go out, just go there. But now that the army has stopped, it is better to make a good living. If the student is still here to serve in the army within two years, then he will do it. The Khitan must be attacked at that time.”

"Yan Yun is hopeful..." Di Qing smiled and nodded.

"Fan Gong and Di Gong must take care of themselves in order to have hope."

"Have you not seen them all? You are very healthy." Fan Zhongyan waved his hand, "I won't go back with you. I will go east of the river with Han Chen back to Beijing, and I will have another fight with them."

Fan Zhongyan, an old man who is ambitious and never dies, has accepted Wang Yan's new ideas of reform and is full of high morale and courage.

Wang Yan smiled and cupped his hands: "Student, I wish Mr. Fan his wish, and Mr. Di doesn't have to worry. Before that, I had already reported to the officials alone and made a bitter apology. When I return to Beijing this time, Mr. Di can just resign, and there is no need to return home. , free time in Beijing."

Di Qing understood it as soon as he heard it, so he just circled him in the capital and watched. He sighed: "Thank you Ziyan for your help."

"Gong Di will live a good life and take good care of his body. He will surely rise again in less than three years."

Di Qing nodded with a smile, followed Fan Zhongyan into the carriage, and headed south. Wang Yan stood in the strong wind and said goodbye...

After the peace negotiation is completed, the fruits of victory will naturally be shared, and everyone from top to bottom will be promoted and made rich.

Wang Yan was naturally promoted, from the original seventh rank to the sixth rank, two levels in a row. Of course, the official position is useless, but the actual work dispatch "Quan Zhi Henan Road Economic Strategy and Comforting Envoy Si Jian Zhi Yanzhou Affairs" is more important.

Henan Road is the division of the land conquered by Wang Yanxin. It is named because it is located south of the "Ji" bend of the Yellow River. It governs the six states of Yin, Shi, Xia, You, and Yan. In order to balance resources and take care of Wang Yan, Yanzhou was transferred over. As he thought, he will govern everything, and all the original soldiers and horses, including the Xiang Army and the Forbidden Army, will be under his command. This is the scope of his power now.

Of course, this is definitely not a reward for him, because based on his achievements this time and the political and military abilities he has displayed, he is enough to be promoted to an official position by two levels, reaching the fifth rank, and he will also be granted the title of earl. As for dispatches, those who participate in political affairs and serve as deputy envoys can all be promoted at once. But obviously, letting him join the center would make people want to die more than letting Fan Zhongyan rule the world.

Everyone knows that once Wang Yan enters the central government, regardless of his position, he will be the prime minister, and there will be no way for others to survive. Many people have already made up their minds to keep Wang Yan out of the center for the rest of their lives.

To this day, they are very sure that it is impossible to kill Wang Yan. After all, Wang Yan has been seeking death since he became an official, and he has not succeeded yet. Instead, he has sent many people to die.

What's more, Wang Yan himself has given people the power to take charge. This time, he made his own decisions and was good at using weapons. How could he let him go?

So based on this, we only promoted him two levels and let him take care of the newly acquired land here. Wang Yan has been away from Beijing for two years, and he can stay here for a few more years this time.

Of course Wang Yan is also willing. Whether it is the promotion of new banknotes, the penetration of Xixia and Khitan, or the current military power, he needs it.

This battle was very successful and the harvest was great. The overall land of Xixia was shrunk by a large circle, which basically just gave Xixia some breathing space. As the saying goes, don't chase after the poor enemy. If the fight continues, Xixia will definitely develop greater potential and fight back desperately. This is also some of the considerations of the ministers in the capital.

Wang Yan did not have strong objections. The main reason was that he was currently unable to confront the entire Song Dynasty's senior management. However, Xixia's vitality was severely damaged by the beating, and this was actually part of the reason.

Next, he can slowly regulate Xixia while managing the newly conquered land and population. Of course, the Khitan will not let it go. Two new markets were opened, one for the east and one for trade with Xixia and Khitan respectively. This was the breakthrough.

What Wu Zang and Pang and others said was right. There were constant rebellions in Xixia, and he sent people to instigate all kinds of rebellions that killed officials. At present, if the three families of Song, Liao and Xia were compared in order of exploitation, Xixia would definitely be the highest, followed by Liao and finally Song.

In the past two years, because of Wang Yan, the atmosphere of being an official has been affected to a certain extent, and it has also made the wealthy people restrain themselves a lot. Then if everyone restrains themselves and makes less money, social conflicts will be greatly alleviated.

Because they are leaving a way out for themselves. As long as they are called 'people of insight', they all know clearly that even if Wang Yan cannot care about him, he is still a big boss in various places. Wang Yan is so powerful that it is impossible for him to be here. Serving in the border areas for too long will be a disaster for the country. Sooner or later, when officials come to their doorstep, they will be doomed. So they all made a tacit agreement to leave a way for themselves, and they had something to say when they were dealt with.

Now that Wang Yan has defeated Xixia again, and seeing that the Khitan will inevitably be attacked in the near future, they have nowhere to run and can only hide in the valley. And Wang Yan will send troops to sweep the mountains, drive away ferocious beasts, and attack bandits when nothing happens. They can't even hide in the valley for too long...

Fan Zhongyan has not yet made specific arrangements, but Wang Yan can say with certainty that it is impossible for Fan Zhongyan to return to the prime minister. Because reform can only be implemented when it has to be changed. Now that the situation has improved somewhat and a lot of land has been regained, we will not support the reform.

But on the other hand, Wang Yan's reform method is effective. The successes in Hangzhou, Qingzhou, and Yanzhou are visible to the naked eye. The monarchs and ministers of the Song Dynasty are not fools who don't know good and bad. They will definitely still find a way, and slowly It will be implemented nationwide, but it will not be as fierce as Wang Yan's, but more gentle.

And this 'gentleness' is the purpose of Zhao Zhen in transferring Fan Zhongyan to Beijing. Zhao Zhen is not an old fool yet. He still wants to make his Zhao family's country better and make his reputation better after his death. He has reached the time to consider these things. when.

Going back to the purpose of the reform, which is to make money, Fan Zhongyan will probably join the Third Division as a deputy envoy and play half the role. Fan Zhongyan himself had expected it, so he took a big turn on his way back to Beijing to meet Wang Yan, just to discuss with Wang Yan how to be 'gentle' and the general strategy of action.

Unlike Wang Yan, who was not popular with others, Fan Zhongyan was still very prestigious because of his many years of business as an official and his age. As far as being an official is concerned, being younger is an advantage, as is being older. Moreover, Fan Zhongyan's reforms in Qingzhou were already very gentle. Although he also suffered assassinations, the level of resistance was far less than that of the big families in Hangzhou.

Therefore, Fan Zhongyan is still very confident. He said that like Wang Yan, people hate dogs, which is self-deprecating. Furthermore, it has been six years since Hangzhou, which is not a short period of time. Both officials and large households have already understood that Hangzhou must be the direction of future reforms and can be regarded as a pilot role.

Another point, which is also very important, is that Fan Zhongyan has a magic weapon. If it is difficult to advance on some key issues, he will solve the problem with just one sentence. I will let Wang Yan go...

Wang Yan, in the eyes of the superiors, it is a good knife, but in the eyes of the inferiors, it is an absolutely ferocious vicious dog, the kind that bites people and kills them, it hurts...

In addition to discussing the 'gentle' method and unifying opinions on future actions, Wang Yan was asked to take a look at the body again, and Di Qing was also given a look.

I heard that during the previous war, the two of them had a plan in mind and did not stay up late at all. So I take it easy in emergencies. I think I will pay more attention in the future...

After bidding farewell to Fan Zhongyan, Wang Yan began to concentrate on the management of the Henan Road site.

It's nothing more than three tricks: working with big households, working with gangsters, dividing fields, collecting business taxes, and carrying out a large number of construction projects. In addition, he has the power to issue new money independently without having to use a large amount of copper to mint and issue coins. Just like the development of the country after a thousand years, a certain degree of fiscal deficit will not matter.

Moreover, the central court did not collect taxes from him. As long as he ensured the stability of the newly acquired land and spent part of the border army's military resources, that would be success. In fact, this is what the capital requires of border officials.

But they didn't expect that within a year of Wang Yan's arrival, he would make Yanzhou rich and build a strong army, which he would directly drag out to fight against Xixia. Even after the entire battle, Yanzhou did not require the capital to pay for military supplies. It only provided a large amount of weapons and equipment, as well as normal Forbidden Army expenses and a small amount of Forbidden Army casualty pensions, which made up for some food gaps, and the rest It was all supported by the efforts of Yanzhou and one state.

This is the reason why people love and hate Wang Yan. He is so good at making money, and he is not just trying to catch all the money. After all, Hangzhou is right there. Except for the talent in the imperial examination that was cut in half and has not recovered until now, everything else is pretty good.

Thriving is an adjective. But where Wang Yan is in charge of political governance, there are real changes visible to the naked eye. If this period is extended to ten years, it can be said to be an earth-shaking change.

After all kinds of officials were fully equipped and Wang Yan dealt with those who dared to disobey, the entire Henan Road developed steadily.

Wang Yan also quietly promoted the circulation and spread of his new banknotes in the border areas.

With official support, coupled with Wang Yan's vigorous development of trade and his tough requirements, the new banknotes issued by him must be used for transactions in the two settlements in the east and west of the Henan Road area he governed.

With the development of business exchanges, merchants naturally discovered the convenience and strength of new banknotes, and they will inevitably gradually accept them. The anchoring of the new banknotes was calculated comprehensively by Wang Yan based on all taxes, GDP, etc., and was not simply anchored.

But really speaking, the new banknote is actually anchored by Wang Yan's personal power. He actually did not print new banknotes based on the calculated data. It was just an explanation he announced to businessmen.

In fact, he issued the new banknotes based on the population within the circulation range. He roughly synthesized the data and then calculated a number based on experience that would not explode. It was basically at the limit. As we all know, there is no way to quickly ramp up construction without raising debt.

As for the conditioning of Xixia and Khitan, it is carried out all the time. He is now sending his troops out to fight in a one-on-one battle. He wants to perform some biological and chemical warfare, but no one has accepted the move. It is necessary to summarize war experience. Whether it is Xixia or Khitan, they all believe that Wang Yan sent troops to kill many elites in single combat, which was an important factor affecting the war.

But it doesn't matter, he will send people to both sides to secretly promote his side's policies and say how good it is here. And because of their close proximity, they had actually heard about the good life here. This kind of news could not be blocked. They themselves were spreading rumors among themselves, and if he sent people to spread the word, the effect would still be there.

Some people choose to live with Wang Yan with their families, and some people listen to the people sent by Wang Yan to preach that his way to make people rich is to kill big families and corrupt officials, and their lives are very difficult. So good, they turned red-eyed and picked up the knife with a breath of blood...

These are all things that people like to hear and see.

In fact, it’s not just Xixia and Khitan, people from other neighboring prefectures and counties also secretly run here. They all want to live a good life, which is understandable...

In this way, the entire Henan Road developed steadily and prospered.

As expected, Fan Zhongyan became the deputy envoy of the Third Department. The first thing he did was to collect business taxes, first in the capital. Because Fan Zhongyan discovered that there was a cleaning department in the inspection office of Kaifeng Mansion, he suddenly realized that if Wang Yan had not been kicked out of the capital at that time, he was afraid that cleaning fees would have to be collected in the capital next.

So he let nature take its course and continued Wang Yan's unfinished business. Anyway, he could also dispatch the Inspector Yamen. Wang Yan also told him that the Inspector Yamen had a small notebook...

Fan Zhongyan was really not in a hurry. He already knew that as long as the business tax was increased and some miscellaneous taxes were reduced for the people, the situation would immediately become much more stable, so he calmly started from the capital and slowly spread to the surrounding areas.

In this process, various supervisory methods were used to deal with large households and officials who colluded and concealed the situation, and to solve other problems. Today, this is unstoppable. This is a trend set off by Wang Yan because it is 'correct'. But the land is not good enough. It is the lifeblood and we dare not move it on a large scale.

A big event also happened during this period, that is, Xiao Dongliang got married. She is not a lady from a wealthy family, but the daughter of a poor family. Her brother is a poor scholar who became a petty official because of Wang Yan's policies. In his spare time, he taught his younger sister how to read and write.

Wang Yan took a look and saw that the girl was very pretty and had a big butt, which fit Xiao Dongliang's aesthetics perfectly. I still remember how fondly Xiao Dongliang thought about it when he mentioned it to him.

It's interesting to say that Xiao Dongliang also fell in love with this girl on the street. Ever since Wang Yan asked him to get married, he had been going out for walks all day long, just like when Wang Yan fell in love with Hua Lan...
