Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

After Zhang Xin's rectification, the bureaucrats in Maozhou have a way to make money.In the future, it will not be difficult to reform the land and return it to the people.

What about other state capitals?

Especially the Ya, Qiong, and Mei prefectures that participated in the rebellion suffered great production damage. After the rebellion was suppressed, how could the people of the three prefectures survive?

Now, with the technology to make blue clips, it will be easy.Build a workshop and use work as a substitute for relief.It must be able to absorb many people who have no means of living.

Especially for the Liao people, the dyes needed by the blue valerian are mainly the bluegrass on the mountain.They grow and collect bluegrass to get rich.

Once they get used to this kind of life, it will not be so easy even if someone with a heart in their hearts encourages them to rebel.In the future, reforming the land and returning to the people will surely get twice the result with half the effort.

Therefore, the political significance of Guo Ye's opening of these workshops is far greater than the economic significance.Even if it is a loss, it is nothing.

As for Zhou?It's not a disadvantage either.

Although they announced this unique technology, because of the shares of the workshop, it is no problem to find some jobs in the workshop.There are only more than 100 people in the Zhou family. Excluding the old and the young, there is no pressure to arrange dozens of people.

How can it be easier to manage things in the workshop than to work hard to make blue clips?This can be regarded as a win-win situation.

Although Zhou Zhengcheng didn't think so much about Guo Ye, he was just worried that his benefactor would suffer.Seeing that Guo Ye was full of confidence, he stopped persuading him and nodded his head.

Without further ado, the preparations for the Lanjiavale workshop will begin immediately, and Guo Ye entrusts this task to Li Yifu.

As a treacherous official who left his name in history, doing such a trivial thing is simply killing chickens with a knife.In less than a month, the first blue clip Valerian workshop officially opened.

Contrary to people's expectations, with a large number of supplies, the price of blue valerian rose instead of falling.The reason is very simple, the output of this thing was too small before, even if it was several times the profit, it would not make much money.Merchants may or may not buy it, no one will specifically sell this item.

However, when the output increased, it became possible to get rich by selling blue valerian, so merchants rushed to buy it, which temporarily pushed up the price.

The profits of the workshop are extremely lucrative, and the Zhou family received the first dividend, so it goes without saying that they rejoice and thank their benefactor.

The guys in the workshop also received high wages.

For a while, working in a government-run workshop became a good job that everyone envied.County magistrate Li Da, ah, no, it should be called Li Dadu Dudu. In addition to the name of an upright official, he also has a reputation of nodding and becoming a gold medal.

He lost no time in announcing that in the future he would not only build workshops for blue clips, but also workshops for red clips, yellow clips, and green clips.

Although it was just a cake, the people saw that the days were getting better and better, and it was enough to satisfy their hunger.

The treasury was abundant, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment. In just a few months, Maozhou seemed to have become a paradise, in stark contrast to the neighboring three rebellious states.

It turned out that the Liao people from Maozhou ran to Sanzhou and took refuge in Yang Sheng.Now the situation is reversed. It is the Liao people and even the Han people from the three states who are fleeing to Maozhou, and there are even deserters from the rebel army.

Whether it was Lu Tianyou, the Marshal of the Rebel Army, or Yang Sheng, the leader of the Liaoren, they both saw the crisis involved in this matter.

However, now they can't care about this matter, because there are more urgent matters waiting for them to solve.

This event is the Chongyang League on the ninth day of September.

Chapter 2081 A turmoil caused by gambling

In order to avoid leaking secrets, Guo Ye did not use the government's troops to participate in the Chongyang League this time.He asked for a thousand elites from the Cao Gang, and took Qin Ying, Kong Kong'er, and Jing Jing'er straight to Meizhou.

What needs to be explained is that Lei Shuyao also followed.However, she neither disguised herself as a man nor changed her name this time.The banner directly played is to sacrifice Lei Shuyao, the holy maiden of Liaoren, in the Zhuwang Temple.

In addition, she also recruited a hundred brave and strong people from Maozhou Liao people as followers.

Therefore, in name, these two groups of people are not the same thing at all, they just happened to come together.

Guo Ye brought a little more people, but he was carrying the documents issued by Zhang Yun, and the journey went smoothly.

As for Lei Shuyao, let alone.Although she didn't have the document issued by Zhang Xin, the title of Liaoren Saintess is the best passport.

Don't forget, this is on the territory of the Rebel Army.How could Lu Tianyou let go of the opportunity to create trouble for Yang Sheng?

All the way without a word, everyone arrived at Nan'an County in Meizhou smoothly.

Nan'an County itself is not big, so many people rushed in at once, it must be impossible to live there.Therefore, in fact, various soldiers and horses were still arranged to camp outside the county seat.Only figures at the leader level are allowed to live in the city.

Guo Ye, for example, was only allowed to bring 20 people into the city.As for Lei Shuyao, the treatment is more preferential, and he can bring 50 people.

Despite all the restrictions, there are quite a few high-profile customers entering the city.It's only the fourth day of September, and there are still a few days before the meeting.Everyone was bored and had money in their pockets. The service industry in Nan'an County began to prosper abnormally.

Brothels, Chu houses, gambling houses and restaurants are all very prosperous.

Guo Ye and the others had their identities, but they didn't dare to mess around. Under Guo Ye's strict order to stay behind closed doors, they seemed to be very strict, which made them dare not be underestimated.

It's just that when people sit at home, disasters come from heaven.Despite all the precautions, trouble still found its way.

bang bang bang~

Outside the small courtyard where Guo Ye lived, there was a knock on the door.Qin Ying opened the door and saw that this person really knew him, but Li Yuankui, the head of the Lazy Dragon Mountain.

"Master Li Dazhai, what kind of fragrant wind brought you here?" Qin Ying asked.

"Hey, what is Xiangfeng? Smelly wind! Ah, no, it's gambling! Forget it, I can't tell you clearly, is my elder brother here?"

"Big brother? Who is your big brother?"

"Do you need to ask? Of course it's the jade-faced little white dragon Guo Xiaobao, Brother Guo!"

"Are you asking about my master? Of course he is. Just wait a moment, and I will report to you."

"Thank you, thank you!"

……

……

Inside the living room.

"Brother, you have to make the decision for me!" Li Yuankui fell to his knees when he saw Guo Ye, hugged his thigh and cried bitterly!

Guo Ye hurriedly helped him up, and said, "Master Li please hurry up, there is no need to perform such a great gift. Uh... you just called me big brother, where did you come from?"

"Have you forgotten? Back then at the foot of Lazy Dragon Mountain, brother Qian Ba ​​and I both recognized you as our eldest brother!"

Guo Ye hesitated and said, "That's not right... I think you wanted to recognize me as the master at the beginning, but I didn't agree, and I didn't mention anything about begging the elder brother."

"You can't say that." Li Yuankui shook his big black head and said, "I think you didn't agree at the beginning, but you didn't refuse. It's just an idea for us. At the Chongyang League, we will find another Ming The Lord takes refuge."

"Uh... your statement is not wrong."

"Then it's over? Don't wait until the ninth day of September. Our two brothers have already decided to recognize you as the master. From now on, you will be our big brother. You let us go east, and we dare not go west. You let us Beat the dog, we absolutely dare not chase the chicken!"

Guo Ye frowned and said, "Why bother? You two don't think about it anymore?"

"What are you thinking about? You have only been in Shiquan County for a few months, and you have turned the entire Maozhou into your own territory. With this achievement, it is enough to prove your ability."
