I seek economic hegemony in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 393 Who in the world doesn’t surrender to the Han?
The expression was the same as when Wang Ling came to Jiangling. When he saw the neat and smooth cement road outside Jiangling City, Zhuge Ke's jaw almost dropped to the ground.

Seeing the huge crowd outside Jiangling City again, Zhuge Ke couldn't bear it anymore: "Who are those?"

"Those are people from Jiangxia County or Changsha County." Du Yu said.

"There are so many people!" Zhuge Ke couldn't help but sigh.

"There are also people coming from Yuzhou." Zhuge Rong couldn't help but laugh, "The number of people in Nan County is now several times greater than the year before."

Although Zhuge Ke has been in Wankou, he has heard about the loss of people in Jiangxia County and Changsha County.

He has always been curious.

Zhuge Ke couldn't help but ask: "What method did you use to attract so many people?"

"Why did Yuan Xun come to Jiangling?" Du Yu asked.

"The dispute over Jianye is becoming increasingly fierce. Even if Lord Wu can tolerate me, I'm afraid others won't tolerate me, so I have to leave Jianye."

Zhuge Ke was shocked. This was the first time he heard this.

"If there is no way to survive in Jiangling, people will not come continuously for more than a year." Zhuge Rong also sighed, "Brother, do you know that in order to come to Jiangling, some people carry wood and drift in the Yunmeng Daze. Many people There were people who died there, crossing mountains and rivers.”

Someone was driving a carriage loaded with goods just unloaded from the ferry.

Zhuge Ke pointed to a street ahead, where many people were squatting on the roadside. When they saw the trucks hauling goods coming, they swarmed over them.

"General!"

"It is a place where goods are stored. Many merchants transport goods to Jiangling City, but it is impossible to sell them all on the same day, and it is impossible to pile them up at the ferry. So they transport them to the city and store them in a collapsed house. You only need to pay some fees. ”

Zhuge Ke was even more curious about Li Heng.

"What is a collapsed house?"

"Everyone has the right to pursue a better life."

"Maybe those powerful people can stop them for a while, but they can't stop them forever."

"Who said this?"

"Where is that?"

Everyone knows the reason, and there is no need to say nice things, as that will only add to the embarrassment.

Du Yu nodded, he liked Zhuge Ke's frankness very much.

"That's a collapsed house." Zhuge Rong said.

"General?"

When he walked into Jiangling City, what caught his eyes was a scene he had never seen before.

Du Yu said: "The taxes in Wu are becoming increasingly heavy. If the people have a way to survive, who would be willing to go far away?"

Zhuge Ke sighed, but couldn't help but fall into deep thought. When he reached the gate of Jiangling City, he couldn't help but ask again: "Will they have a way to survive when they come to Jiangling?"

The main streets of Jiangling City have all been paved with cement roads and are very spacious. People wearing different clothes are walking on the streets.

"Because as long as they come to Gangneung, their family will really have food to eat and clothes to wear, and the same will be true for their next generation."

"It's unheard of to have such a place like this!" Zhuge Ke was greatly surprised. "Over there, on the roadside over there is..."

"That's a trading bank, a trading bank on the roadside. Jiangling City is different from other cities. You can open a trading bank on the roadside. You only need to go to Yamen to register and get the business certificate."

"Shouldn't it be in Lifang?"

"There are no longer any squares in Jiangling." Zhuge Rong said, "Since Lu Xun led his troops to attack Jiangling two years ago, many of Jiangling's fellow villagers died in the battle to defend the city, and many houses were vacated. The government began to control the entire city. The city has been rebuilt. You see, the road is three times as wide as before. The place you are walking on was once inhabited by people. After the government demolished it, they also moved those families to other places. "

"Without Rifang, there won't be any problems?"

"There are nearly 800,000 people in and around Jiangling City. There are ten county captains, and each county captain has thirty officials. Moreover, the security of a city is not only related to whether it is prepared, but also whether the people live a prosperous life. related."

"If most people have a stable income, who will break the law and commit crimes?"

Zhuge Ke was not only shocked but shocked at this time.

And he also saw farmers driving cattle, and others collecting cow dung on the street.

In the distance, a tall pillar rises from the ground, with black smoke rising from the pillar.

"What is that?" "That's it." Zhuge Rong glanced at Du Yu.

Du Yu said: "Iron smelting workshop."

Zhuge Ke was lost in thought all the way. Jianye was the capital of Wu State, but compared with Jiangling in front of him, it was simply too far behind.

After arriving at the General's Mansion, Zhuge Ke was waiting in the front hall.

Not long after, Li Heng came out.

"Yuan Xun!"

Zhuge Ke saw a young man striding out, and he couldn't help being stunned for a moment: "Your Excellency..."

"Brother, this is the Han general Li Jian!" Zhuge Rong said.

"I have met the general."

"There is no need to be polite. I have many official duties and cannot go to greet you. Please stay away."

"How dare you?"

"sit."

"General, please."

Everyone took their seats.

Zhuge Ke said: "What I saw and heard along the way is incredible. The land of Jiangling is beyond my imagination."

Li Heng smiled and said: "It's all Du Yuankai who manages well, as well as my uncle and the officials from various counties in Nanjun."

"The general is extremely talented!"

"How dare you?"

While he was talking, an old man strode in. Although he was a little fat, he was full of energy and his eyes were bright.

"General, my subordinate is late."

"Your Majesty, please take your seat quickly."

Wang Ling took his seat.

Zhuge Ke looked at Wang Ling, and Wang Ling looked at Zhuge Ke.

"Let me introduce you. This is Prince Wang Yanyun, General of the Han Dynasty Zhengdong."

Zhuge Ke suddenly stood up, his face full of shock.

Wang Ling really came to Jingzhou!
Wang Ling is Zhuge Ke's old rival.

In recent years, Zhuge Ke has been active in Wankou.

Wankou is an important military base for the Wu Army's Northern Expedition. You can go north to Shouchun along the river.

Zhuge Ke reported the Northern Expedition to Sun Quan many times. Although he was suppressed by Sun Quan, he was extremely public in Wankou.

Wang Ling's scouts also kept staring at him.

"This is Zhuge Yuanxun." Li Heng continued to introduce.

Wang Ling also stood up. The two looked at each other for a long time, then looked at each other and laughed.

"I have heard about the name of the prince for a long time, and today I finally meet him!"

"I have heard of Zhuge Yuanxun's name a long time ago! I just got to meet him today!"

At this moment, the two of them actually had a tacit understanding and sympathy for each other.

Li Heng raised a glass of wine and said to Wang Ling: "In the past, the prince served Cao Wei and stationed troops in Yangzhou. Yuan Xun served under Sun Wu and stationed troops in Wankou. Today, the two of you meet in Jiangling. You are no longer the enemy of the past. I hope you two Forget the past grudges, and we will prosper the Han Dynasty together."

Wang Ling and Zhuge Ke immediately picked up their wine glasses.

Wang Ling said: "There is no need to mention the past."

Zhuge Ke said: "From now on, we will kill the enemy together!"
