The Three Kingdoms

The more Sun Quan thought about it, the more melancholy he became. Although Cai Yong's current situation in the court has changed from disappointment to despair, the bright heart of the Han Dynasty still hasn't disappeared in his heart.

"How can we let this old man settle down?"

Sun Quan scratched his head, completely at a loss. Wu County is only so big, and once he reaches the top level, there are only a few people, who can't see Li Nie's identity completely.

If this old man Cai finds out that General Zhengdong's mansion actually took in the mastermind who once forced the young emperor to death and burned Luo Yang, with his staunch temper, something big might happen.

Cai Yong is no ordinary old man, he has great energy.

Not to mention Cai Yong's reputation as a great Confucian in the past, let's just say that now, he is the sacrificial wine of Jiangdong Academy. Jiangdong Academy recruited foreign students for the second time in September last year.

Today, there are nearly 8000 students in the entire college.

In the modern world, a university district with 8000 students is nothing, but in this era of ignorance and decline, an academy of this size is a giant.

Today, the scale of Jiangdong Academy is the largest institution in the world. Whether it is the strength of teachers or reputation, it has come to the forefront of the times. Its reputation has shaken the world. It is called a holy place for Confucianism by scholars. I want to study There is an endless stream of people.

And Cai Yong, as the No. 1 sacrificial wine of such an academy, his status among scholars has far surpassed the general Confucianism, and now there are only a handful of people who can be compared with him.

If he tried his best to force Jiang Dong to kill Li Nie, it would be difficult for Jiang Dong to keep Li Nie.

"call!"

Sun Quan thought about it for a long time, but with old man Cai's stubborn temper, he still didn't have a proper way to get the best of both worlds. In desperation, he let out a cloudy breath and muttered to himself: "Forget it, there must be a way for the car to reach the mountain. No matter what, Li Nie has to return to Jiangdong, if a great talent like Li Nie is not sent back to Jiangdong to take charge of the overall situation, it would be a waste to just develop here in Liaodong."

........................

In the fifth year of Chuping, at the beginning of February, the weather in Liaodong began to warm up, and the snow on the ground began to melt. This is good news for Jiangdong people.

Some Jiangdong people can't adapt to the icy and snowy weather.

Sun Jing, the new governor of Pingzhou, took office, and the chaos in Liaodong gradually subsided. The appointment of the new governor was equivalent to having a backbone. It turned out that after Gongsundu's disillusionment, many local powerful forces who were still on the sidelines began to visit.

One emperor and one courtier, this sentence is not wrong at all. In the past, they strongly supported Gongsundu, but now Jiangdong dominates Liaodong.

No one wants to be a role model for Sun Jingliwei.

The local tyrants who can gain a foothold in Liaodong are not a group of idiots and fools, and they will not foolishly kill themselves for the sake of Gongsundu. If they are a little unwilling to take refuge in Sun Ce and Sun Quan brothers, then they don’t have so many concerns about taking refuge in Sun Jing.

After all, Sun Jing is so old, at least it gives them a sense of trust and stability intuitively, and Sun Jing is also the younger brother of Sun Jian, the lord of Jiangdong.

Sun Jing is also a vigorous and resolute person. Not long after accepting the Pingzhou Governor's Department, under the suggestion of Sun Quan and others, the first step was to directly finalize Xuantu and the county guard of the Liaodong vassal state.

In fact, these two positions were specially reserved by Sun Ce and Sun Quan for the new governor of Pingzhou to stabilize the situation. After all, the new governor cannot control the situation without the support of a few of his own confidants.

Sun Jing's decision was very decisive. The sheriff of Xuantu County was a native of Liaodong, or a Liaodong native with the surname Gongsun. Of course, this was not from the line of Gongsun Du, but a small official from Liaodong County, Gongsun Fu.

Gongsun Fu is in his early 40s this year. He was born in a poor family, has read poetry and books, and has extraordinary talents. In the past, he was an official to Liaodong County. A small county official.

After Jiangdong entered Xiangping, he set up a recruiting hall. He was one of the first batch of people who were frustrated. Coupled with his previous resume, it is not too much to be the prefect of Xuantu. Relatively speaking, As the prefect of Xuantu, he also regained the hearts of many people in Liaodong.

As for the candidate to preside over the Liaodong vassal state, Sun Jing gave her a confidant she brought from Jiangdong. The Sun clan, Sun Ling, and Sun Ling can be regarded as a cousin of Sun Jing and Sun Jian, not to mention that they have been separated for several generations.

This can be regarded as a capable person, familiar with handling government affairs, and tactful. Sun Jian has always been away, Sun Jing is at home, and Sun Ling has been assisting Sun Jing to protect the foundation of the Sun family.

Now that the county guard has been appointed, the next is the captain, who leads the army. It is an important position, and there must be the most trusted person.The candidates for the captains of the various counties were finalized one by one after many discussions and the opinions of Zhou Yu and Sun Ce were also sought.

After the captains of the counties were selected, the last thing was to reorganize the somewhat chaotic soldiers and horses. Now the troops and horses in Liaodong are all in chaos.

The [-] Jiujiang soldiers must be disassembled, and then all the soldiers and horses in Liaodong will be mixed together to re-establish soldiers and horses guarding the counties in Liaodong. This time, the soldiers and horses will be reorganized. work.

In mid-February, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu returned to Xiangping City from Xuantu and the Liaodong vassal state. The distribution of troops from all parties in Liaodong began, and it was still the rectification of all the troops under their command.

This job is related to the stability of Liaodong in the future, so it is natural to be cautious. Sun Ce and Sun Quan are assisted by two top advisers, Li Nie and Zhou Yu, but there is not much trouble. They broke up the soldiers and horses in Jiujiang one by one, and then Combined with the soldiers and horses left behind in Liaodong, plus some radishes and big sticks, the reorganization work went very smoothly.

Jiujiang soldiers have no choice. Liu Yao is now in Wu County and has become a teacher in Jiangdong Academy.

The Liaodong soldiers were originally surrendered, but now Jiangdong, where Gongsun Du went, is not in Liaodong, so they have no support at all.

Speaking of them, they are all Jiangdong's captive soldiers now, and they can only be merman fish. In fact, Jiangdong has not treated them badly. Said.

Whether it is Liu Yao or Gongsun Du, the two princes, the treatment of soldiers under their command is far inferior to that of Jiangdong.

For the soldiers under Jiangdong's command, whether it is the usual treatment or the pension after death, it is absolutely the best in the world. Any Jiangdong soldier who is serving, with his military salary, can at least support an elder Small.

In today's world, human life is as cheap as grass, and it is lucky for a person to live on enough to eat. The general princes treat ordinary soldiers under their command with enough to eat. Even if there is military salary, a month's military salary is too low.

It's not that they are stingy, but because they don't have such financial resources, and Jiangdong is called a rich place. For food and economy, Jiang Dong said that he was second, and no one dared to say that he was first.

Only with financial resources and food can we afford more soldiers and horses. This is an iron law.

Jiangdong is rich. There are two reasons for this. The first is that Jiangdong has this foundation, and the other is the existence of Sun Quan. He has a thinking beyond this era and pays more attention to economic development than ordinary people.

Although he did not dominate Jiangdong's economic development, he was considered a high-level decision-maker in Jiangdong. Sun Jian's suggestions to him have always been uncompromising.

He attaches great importance to merchants, and even the General Zhengdong's Mansion also attaches great importance to Jiangdong's merchants, and gradually formed a kind of influence, so Jiangdong's merchants have been very active in recent years, and the active businessmen can naturally drive Jiangdong. economic development.

It is precisely because of Jiangdong's strong financial resources and food support that Sun Quan had the courage to take over Liaodong. Liaodong is a place of bitter cold. It is undeniable that there are many resources here, and even the most elite cavalry. If it comes to your door, you may not dare to accept it.

Liaodong is sometimes a burden.

Given the current situation in Liaodong, at least within three years, food support from Jiangdong is necessary to develop steadily, and it will take at least three to five years to be self-sufficient.

Of course, this does not necessarily require efforts in food. Liaodong is still a pasture, and with the completion of the Tajin Port, the commercial roads between Jiangdong and Liaodong have been completely connected.

Merchants in Jiangdong experienced the voyages of Yizhou and Zhoushan, and now they are less and less afraid of the sea. Many people know that there are great business opportunities in the North. Traveling to and from the Northland, trading goods from Jiangdong and Northland.

On the East China Sea, in addition to the navy, more and more merchant ships are sailing continuously. Jiangdong's shipyard has already made a lot of money just by selling merchant ships.

After all, there are many rich Jiangdong businessmen, including some powerful families, who also formed caravans.

Benefits can change a lot of concepts, even aristocratic families have to admit that in the face of huge benefits, some principles have to be given up.

Jiangdong and Beidi are different places, and the price of the same item is huge, which represents a huge benefit.

If a stone of good rice in Jiangdong can be sold for at most [-] to [-] yuan, but if this stone of rice arrives in Liaodong, it can be sold for at least [-] yuan, and a horse in Liaodong and a horse transported to Jiangdong For a horse, the price difference is at least half.

The benefits contained in it can make people crazy, and there are not a few people who can see such business opportunities.

Relatively speaking, the policy of confiscating the East General's Mansion also supports this kind of exchange of goods, some transactions, only some transactions are taxed.

That is because this group of active Jiangdong merchants continued to enter Liaodong. In just one month, a group of powerful and businessmen in Liaodong was instantly driven. Countless people in Liaodong became enthusiastic, and each of them had a plan in mind to do business. Jiangdong to go.

For them, Jiangdong is a very wealthy place.

The days are getting warmer day by day, and the land of Liaodong, under the leadership of Sun Jing, has gradually stabilized and entered a mode of rapid development.
