Recreating the prosperous Tang begins with summoning players

The reason why Wuwei City is called the gateway to Longyou is because of its extremely important geographical location.

To the south of Wuwei City is Shanzhou. Shanzhou is the Hehuang area called in the Han Dynasty, and it is also the most fertile area in the entire Qinghai area.

The seat of Shanzhou is Shancheng, and a Huangshui River passes along Shanzhou.

In the upper and middle reaches of Huangshui, there are two cities, Huangyuan and Huangzhong, one prefecture and three cities, which shows the richness of Shanzhou.

In fact, Shanzhou is connected to Tuyuhun in the west, and the straight-line distance from Tianzhu City is closer than Wuwei City. However, the reason why Tubo did not attack from Shanzhou is because there are mountains such as Qinghai Lake and Mengchunling between Tianzhu City and Shanzhou.

There are Baishui Army stationed in Shanzhou. Originally, there were 1 troops, but in order to suppress the rebellion in Guanzhong, 6000 people were also transferred into Guanzhong.

To the east of Shanzhou is Lanzhou, which also borders Wuwei City. After the decline of the four counties in Hexi, Jincheng, the seat of Lanzhou, has long been the military center and political center of successive dynasties in the northwest.

Of course, the Great Song Dynasty, which has never occupied the Northwest from beginning to end, does not count.

To the east of Lanzhou is Huizhou. The Yellow River circles along Huizhou and Lingzhou, forming a shape of "ji", which wraps Huizhou and Lingzhou in a few words.

This is the famous Hetao area.

The Hetao is eroded by the Yellow River, and the soil is relatively fertile compared to the lower reaches of the Yellow River. At this time, the Yellow River is not the Tianhe that is easy to flood in later generations.

This is also the reason why today's emperor can rely on the soldiers of Hetao to fight against the puppet Yan for so long. This used to be a very rich area.

Hetao has the danger of the Yellow River and is blocked by Yinshan Mountains. It is the frontline area for the nomads in the north of the other side.

The dynasties that occupy Hetao can go north to the Yinshan Mountains to attack the prairie dynasties.

A dynasty without Hetao, such as the Song Dynasty, could not stop the nomads from invading Guanzhong, so they had to set up a defense line in the Guanzhong area, which cost a lot of manpower and material resources, but they were often robbed.

The Hetao is also a corridor connecting the Hedong and Longyou areas. At that time, Guo Ziyi proposed to directly attack the Puppet Yan Laochao Hedong from the Hetao, because the distance here is similar and the terrain is flat and easy to attack.

And these areas are all connected to Wuwei City, from which we can know why Tubo, Uighur and King Jianning all took Wuwei City.

This city is so important!

Xue Hu was transferred from an internal guard to an official, and now he has been appointed as the [City Guard] of Wuwei City, in charge of the big city of Wuwei.

[City Guard] is a saying among the players, Xue Hu's position is the Sima of the Jianning Palace, and he is in charge of Liangzhou military and political affairs.

Xue Hu directly crossed the palace to join the army, and was promoted to Sima of the palace, realizing a leap forward.

Sure enough, wealth and wealth are sought in the midst of danger. Both old and new players are envious of Xue Hu. Now there are only a few players who can independently control a state, and Xue Hu has reached the sky in one step.

Wuwei City is a big city, Xue Hu is different from players like Cui Tao and Zeng Mu, he has no experience in governing a city.

Fortunately, Xue Hu is a fan of simulated city management games, and he understands the most important thing in urban development—a sense of security.

If you want people to do business well, a stable market is essential.

After Xue Hu took charge of Wuwei City, he first managed the security of Wuwei City.

As an internal guard who once lurked in Wuwei City, Xue Hu was very familiar with the organizations in these gray areas of Wuwei City.

Under the drastic action, the atmosphere of Wuwei City was completely suppressed.

Outside Wuwei City.

"Shopkeeper, I didn't expect the battle in Wuwei City to end so soon." A young guy said excitedly to the young shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper's complexion is fair. Although his face is weathered, he doesn't look like a businessman but a scholar.

The name of the shopkeeper was Wang Jun, and he couldn't help sighing when he saw the tall Wuwei City. He said to the shopkeeper, "Clean up the goods. I heard that you have to pay taxes before entering the city. Get the money ready!"

Wang Jun looked at Wuwei City with an investigative attitude, because he was not an ordinary businessman.

Wang Jun, from the famous Taiyuan Wang family, was once the most famous family in Hedong.

The Taiyuan Wang family in Bingzhou was a big family that started in the Han Dynasty, and reached its peak in the Jin Dynasty and the Southern and Northern Dynasties. There were as many as three princes in the family, and it was an important big family in the North.

Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, the Wang family of Taiyuan is also one of the five surnames and seven Wangs, and it is the top wealthy family in the Hedong area.

However, since the Anlushan rebellion, the Taiyuan Wang family has also been coerced because it is in Hedong.

Such a big family can naturally see that the foundation of Anlu Mountain is unstable, but now that Shi Siming is stationed in Taiyuan City, the Taiyuan Wang family can only join him.

These big families have been able to pass on to the present, so they naturally know the truth that eggs cannot be put in one basket.

Some members of the Taiyuan Wang clan continued to stay in Hedong and became officials to serve the puppet Yan court.

Some clansmen went south to Fengxiang Mansion to serve in the Tang Dynasty.

Other tribes began to migrate around, looking for a new place to stay.

Wang Jun's clan moved west from Taiyuan to Lingwu.

But in Lingwu, he was squeezed out by local warriors, and he couldn't integrate into Lingwu's local northwestern tyrants.

As the legitimate son of this branch, Wang Jun offered to continue heading west and go to Longyou to see the situation.

The Wang family who moved to Lingwu discussed it, bought some goods in Lingwu, and took out the inventory brought by the family from Taiyuan, and asked Wang Jun to take it to Longyou to do business and inquire about the situation in Longyou.

Wang Jun traveled all the way, and heard the news that Wuwei City was fighting outside Wuwei City.

Hearing that Tubo invaded Hexi on a large scale, the staff in his staff panicked and wished they could flee back to Lingwu immediately.

The ferocity of the Tubo people is clear to the entire northwest region.

With the strength of Tubo, can Hexi resist it?

Later, I heard the news that King Jianning let go of his grievances with Fang Guan, the Jiedu envoy of Hexi, and sent troops to assist Hexi.

Wang Jun also has no confidence in whether King Jianning can solve the crisis in Hexi. He can only let the guys guard the goods. If the battle is not over, then Wang Jun will go back home.

Wang Jun had already prepared for the worst. If the Tibetans occupied Wuwei, Lingwu would no longer be safe.

Then Wang Jun will persuade the family to continue going south to avoid the war.

I didn't expect the war to end so soon!
The merchants said that all the [-] Tubo troops were killed, and even Shang Qixin'er, the host of Tubo, lost his life.

For this legend, Wang Jun did not believe it.

The generals in the border town have always had a tradition of lying about their military achievements, but it is true that Tubo has indeed retreated.

The commercial roads in Wuwei City have been opened. Although it is not clear whether the results of the battle are so big, the Tang army should have won.

Merchants poured into Wuwei City one after another, confirming that Hexi was safe, Wang Jun also led the family caravan westward and arrived at Wuwei City.

Looking at the majestic Wuwei City, Wang Jun suddenly felt an indescribable sense of security.

Maybe Wuwei City can really be used as a place for families to migrate.

Wang Jun thought so, and started to enter the city with his buddies.

"Prepare your money, and be smart when you encounter problems!" Wang Jun told the buddy.

Wang Er is the son of the Wang family and Wang Jun's playmate since childhood.

Wang Jun's branch is not the big house of the Wang family, and the rules are not so strict.

The relationship between Wang Er and Wang Jun is also very close, and there is not much feeling of superiority and inferiority.

Wang Er said with a hippie smile: "Young master, don't worry, I'm ready!"

After finishing speaking, Wang Er shook the silver money in his hand.

This was specially prepared to bribe the city gate officials. On the way from Taiyuan to Lingwu, the Wang family spent a bag of silver cakes just to bribe the city gate officials.

Those who are barbaric and chaotic, those who have power are the masters.

Hades is easy, but the imp is hard.

Although Wang Jun is young, he has grown a lot along the way.

Although he is disgusted with these bad habits, he also knows the truth that more things are worse than less things.

Wuwei City lined up very fast, and Jiang Lun had already trained several sets of mature tax collectors in the rear. After Wuwei City was captured, these people were sent to Wuwei.

Those merchants who often travel to and from Wuwei City have already gotten used to it. They sorted the goods and put them away in order to facilitate tax collectors to calculate the tax amount.

Those experienced tax collectors can know the approximate amount with just a glance.

Soon it was the turn of Wang Jun's caravan, and Wang Er quickly stepped forward, holding the silver cake and stuffing it into the palm of the leading tax collector.

The person responsible for counting the tax amount at the city gate is Wang Chengwei, who is a player of the Seven Tests.

Wang Chengwei is also a student majoring in accounting. After entering the game, he matched his major. After joining the public examination home, he was arranged to take the examination of the Yantie Tax Bureau.

The Salt and Iron Tax Bureau is the department with the largest number of players. This is not because the players like to be tax collectors, but because the natives' arithmetic skills are really not high.

The Salt and Iron Tax Bureau is required to test mathematics, so it currently recruits the most players.

However, Jiang Lun has already started to build a mathematics school. The local demand for officials who are proficient in mathematics is getting higher and higher, and those players who have accumulated enough levels will resign. Training aboriginal tax collectors is also the general trend.

When Wang Chengwei grasped the thing in his hand, he understood that it was bribe money from the businessman.

He opened his hand and said, "Take the things back! As long as you pay taxes according to the regulations and operate according to the law, no one in Wuwei City will dare to trouble you!"

"If you commit crimes, it doesn't matter how much money you give!"

Wang Chengwei stuffed the silver cake back on the spot, and then started the convoy's cargo.

After quickly calculating the amount, Wang Chengwei issued a tax payment receipt, handed it to Wang Jun and said:

"This is a proof of tax payment. Take the proof to enter the city and check the goods when you leave the city, so you don't have to pay taxes repeatedly."

Wang Jun quickly took the tax payment certificate, and said respectfully:
"Tax Secretary, may I ask what profitable business is there in Wuwei City?"

Now the sun is almost setting, Wang Jun is the last caravan.

Wang Chengwei saw that Wang Jun had an extraordinary demeanor, he didn't look like an ordinary businessman, so he also wanted to chat.

Wang Chengwei said: "The silk in the Central Plains is the best seller, the tea is also good, and the seeds of various crops."

"Recently, Zhangye is buying soybean seeds. If you have a channel, you can make a fortune by doing so."

"As for the goods from Longyou, I can guarantee that as long as they are brought to the Central Plains, they can make a lot of money!"
