The Three Kingdoms: A vicious plan was offered, and Liu Bei was stunned!

Chapter 319: Jiangdong nobles moved to Jiangling, and a century of wealth gathered in Jiangzuo
Pang Tong laughed and said: "Why can't we stop you? You have a lot of people and no one wants to fight. What can the Lord of Wu do?"

"Hey, we have no soldiers."

Without soldiers, you can’t speak loudly.

Zhang Xiong looked at Luo Yuan and said, "We want to send our families to Jiangling. Is it possible..."

Oh, shit!

Good thing!
These nobles in Jiangdong moved to Jiangling to seek refuge. Luo Yuan could understand that, but would the refuge be in vain without any benefit?
Luo Yuan quickly said: "Yes, yes, no problem!"

"We want to buy some land in Jiangling!"

"The land in Jiangling is very expensive, and the Military Command generally does not sell land to outsiders!"

"Ten gold coins per acre is fine!"

Xu Shu and Pang Tong looked at each other and stopped talking.
Luo Yuan nodded slightly: "That's fine, but it must be in accordance with Jiangling law. Each person can only own a maximum of five acres. You nobles cannot live in groups. Living in groups can easily lead to trouble. Other things are fine!"

"Don't worry, my lord. We know the laws of Jiangling and will abide by them!"

I just love talking to you rich people, you speak nicely and are generous.

Jiangdong fought against Cao Cao and gained the upper hand.

The Jiangdong cousins ​​who came to Jiangling for refuge also brought advanced rice-growing techniques.

Don't ask for too many benefits, just provide a little protection!

It doesn't cost much.

After Luo Yuan and Zhang Xiong had reached an agreement, the other party went back to do his work. Moving house for aristocratic families is a very time-consuming process.

Xu Shu and Pang Tong looked at Luo Yuan hurriedly. Luo Yuan agreed, fearing that Sun Quan would be unhappy.

"I don't care. You don't know how much benefit there is. Which of the Jiangdong nobles is not rich? Who doesn't have hundreds of years of savings? How much profit can we all get from sericulture alone? Silk, do you know about silk? Now only Shu and Jiangdong can raise silkworms and make silk. There is also advanced rice planting technology, which is in the hands of the Jiangdong nobles. There are also Jiangdong water buffaloes. You don't know the benefits of water buffaloes. They are more useful than cattle."

Luo Yuan said: "It's not that Jiangdong doesn't have good things, it's just that Sun doesn't know how to use them. But we in Jiangling need these things, and they are things I have always been reluctant to ask Sun Quan for. Now they are willing to send them to me, why shouldn't I want them? The mineral forging techniques and silk techniques of Wuyue, why shouldn't I want them?"

Am I crazy?

The transfer of nobles means the transfer of technology.

When the Jiangdong area began to develop, it was because the northern Han people fled to the southeast and the northern Han people fled to the south, which led to the rapid development of Jiangdong, because the northern Han people brought with them the advanced Central Plains culture and technology.

Now Luo Yuan wants to gather the advanced technology of Jiangdong. Luo Yuan really doesn't know how to raise silkworms, but the Jiangdong gentry are very good at it.

If there is a chance to gather these talents, then offending Sun Quan is a mistake!

Luo Yuan said: "I am not after the wealth of the nobles, I am after the farming techniques that they have mastered, that is the foundation. The nobles of Jiangdong have taken refuge in Jiangling, and our people can also sell more things!"

What can those people bring with them when they come to Jiangling? At most, they can bring some valuable items. Everything else can be bought in Jiangling.

This is the benefit of a developed commodity economy.

"Besides, it is of great benefit to Jiangling to implement the new currency. The nobles have recognized our new currency. How can Sun Quan not recognize it? After all, the people who spend the most money are still the nobles!"

Pang Tong and Xu Shu thought about it and felt that they were convinced. It seemed that the benefits of this matter were too great and the costs were too great. Or, it seemed that there was not much cost at all.

What's more, Luo Yuan is Sun Quan's brother-in-law. Isn't it reasonable for the Jiangdong gentry to come to Jiangling for a trip and see Sun Shangxiang?

After Luo Yuan and Zhang Xiong had reached an agreement, some small noble families came one after another. When they arrived in Jiangling, the first thing they did was to come to the General's Mansion to buy land and build houses, and they always asked for good land.

He didn't even ask about the price, his generosity surprised Du Mao. The century-old noble family didn't even hide their heritage at this time. It seemed that they were just a small family and could easily take out a huge sum of money without even frowning.

On the left side of the Military Commander's Mansion, Luo Yuan built a lot of roads, but no houses. This was intended to build official residences for his subordinates in the future! Now they are all sold to the Jiangdong nobles. It used to be a wasteland, but now it has become a prime district.

"My lord, this is incredible. We have earned more than 30,000 gold in just three days. My lord, you can make so much money by selling houses!" Du Mao took the account book and reported the situation to Luo Yuan.

The local rich man in Jiangdong has amazing financial resources!
Luo Yuan smiled and said, "Land is worthless, what is valuable is friendship. This money also includes the protection they bought from us, which is also a face for me. In addition to land, they also need to buy materials to build a house. A mere 1,000 gold coins is nothing. Just serve them well. They are all wealthy people!"

"Don't worry, my lord. I know what's going on," Du Mao said. "Several families want to invite me as their guest. I think they like me and want to arrange a marriage. My lord, please be careful!"

"What are you being careful about? An official like you needs the approval of the Military Headquarters to get married. So, you've fallen in love with a peasant girl, right? How's that?"

"His father objected, saying that I was too high-ranking to marry him!"

"What's so great about this!"

"How should I know?" Du Mao was stunned. Didn't he remind the lord? Why did he mention my business? "My lord, those noble families are the best at marriage. There are many bachelors in our army. I'm afraid someone will be fooled!"

"Who are you talking about?"

"Gan Ning and his people"

"Don't worry, if they want to form an alliance, then just form an alliance. It's not me who is anxious, it's Sun Quan. Besides, Jiangling has its own laws, so can they just form an alliance if they want?" Luo Yuan smiled slightly, "I will come up with a marriage law later, free love, free marriage, and free intermarriage. Common people can marry the nobles, what do you think!"

"Haha, this... is great," Du Mao said, "I'll draft it when I get back. The rich and the poor will get married, right?"

"Yes," Luo Yuan smiled.

The nobles want to use intermarriage to infiltrate their power? Naive, I'll fight for it with a free love, and you guys can worry about it yourself.

Who likes to be arranged by others?
If you meet the person you love, it would be strange if you don't fight to the death.

The customs in Jiangling are very open and free. How could those young ladies from the Jiangdong aristocratic families who have never seen the world not follow suit?
Don’t you know that the good girl was finally harmed by the little hooligan? Let me show you how powerful the yellow-haired guy is.

Luo Yuan opened the door wide to the Jiangdong gentry and accepted everyone who came. The land in Jiangling was selling like hot cakes. When these gentry arrived in Jiangling, they began to build houses and arrange production.

As the social elite of that era, they discovered countless business opportunities together with Jiangling and were more organized in their work. The Tao family of Jiangdong took the initiative to approach Luo Yuan to cooperate with him in silk production.

Wow, the Tao family has been raising silkworms and making silk for five hundred years, since the Warring States Period. His ancestors were originally Yue people.

"Wu Jin?"

"Well, if the Lord allows, my family would like to specialize in Wujin in Jiangling."

The "Wu" in this Wujin does not refer to Jiangdong, but to the Wujin that was popular during the ancient Wu Kingdom.

"Cooperate with me?"

"Your Excellency is open-minded. I have seen many noble families in Jiangling doing business, and Your Excellency has no intention of robbing them, so I am willing to cooperate with Your Excellency Wu Jin."

It turned out that it was because of Laozi’s excellent character. Luo Yuan smiled and said, “Didn’t you cooperate with Sun?

"

The Tao clan leader smiled slightly.

Luo Yuan understood and was afraid that Sun Quan would steal their technology, so he naturally agreed: "How big do you plan to make it?"

"We need a hundred acres of mulberry forest,"

"That's it? Jingzhou can plant mulberry trees on the mountains. Let's start with 100,000 acres!" It's just a few hills. Luo Yuan looked at the confused old man and said, "If you want to do it, do it on a big scale. What's the point of playing house!"
