I really just want to lose my fortune

Not to mention Qin Ge, Wei Zheng didn't understand at all.

Jia Xu frowned slightly, and said to Fan Zhongyan: "Then you killed Master Fan and those family members on the grounds of driving up the price of food?"

"Ahem..." Fan Zhongyan said dumbfoundedly: "The purpose of being a lower official is to solve the problem, not to ask for death."

"Then what is Master Fan's plan?" Jia Xu frowned and said, "It can't be to make the people unable to survive, rebel, and then use the troops here to put down the rebellion, right? That's really a lot of mouths to eat."

Fan Zhongyan was stunned, what is the origin of this person, why is he thinking so cruelly?

Not only Fan Zhongyan, but also Wei Zheng broke out in a cold sweat.

When Li Ru and Jia Xu conspired, he was one of the executors and knew how ruthless the two were.

Jia Xu was really able to implement the two strategies just now, it was definitely not just talk!

Even Wei Zheng felt that if Qin Ge really had no choice, Jia Xu would dare to let the Tatars in to kill people!

"In this way, first collect grain at three times the current price, presumably those aristocratic chambers of commerce will send grain here desperately." Fan Zhongyan didn't hold back, and began to talk about his plan: "Isn't there enough grain?"

"Bingzhou's financial resources are not rich." Qin Ge hesitated.

"My lord." Fan Zhongyan said: "The rest of the matter is a national policy, if there are not enough official positions..."

Fan Zhongyan was asking Qin Ge tactfully if these two people were worthy of trust.

"They are the king's right-hand men, so I can hear them," Qin Ge said.

"My lord, there is still work under the door, so I will leave first." Wei Zheng quickly got up and saluted.

Just as Qin Ge was about to speak, Jia Xu gently tugged him.

Qin Ge opened his mouth and changed his words: "Then leave it to Mr. Wei."

Hearing this, Wei Zheng withdrew.

Seeing that Wei Zheng was gone and Jia Xu was still there, Fan Zhongyan continued: "As long as the news spreads, those aristocratic families will definitely sell their grain, and those who hoarded it before will also find a way to sell it to the government of Bingzhou. In this way, Chang'an, There will definitely be a large amount of cheap grain and grass flowing into Jizhou. If we open warehouses to release grain at this time, the grain from those wealthy families will not be able to be transported back."

When Jia Xu heard this, she suddenly realized.

Qin Ge heard what Fan Zhongyan said, and he also realized it. It's like when a certain commodity is scarce at the beginning, everyone produces it. The people at the beginning take advantage of it, and the latter either don't make money or lose money.

As long as the output keeps up, things will naturally be cheaper.

Didn't the price of something that was sold at a sky-high price when it was rare in the past have come down now?

"After those aristocratic families know about it, they might be dissatisfied with the prince, and there will be hidden dangers." Jia Xu said.

"It's okay, the prince has soldiers." Fan Zhongyan said calmly.

Jia Xu laughed when she heard the words: "The prince may face many obstacles from now on."

"It seems that there is not much resistance from the prince's family now." Fan Zhongyan spread his hands.

"Yes, yes." Jia Xu nodded, approving the idea.

"Master Fan really has a clever plan." Qin Ge said with emotion: "In this way, the food in the early stage of Bingzhou is enough, but the finances..."

"The lower officials haven't finished talking yet." Fan Zhongyan said: "Those rich businessmen and wealthy families have come here, and they have been cheated on food prices here, so they have to be compensated, and they can't really make them hate the prince completely. We wait Sell ​​the land and raw materials to them at a lower price, build a temple here, promote the reputation of a great benevolent person; open a restaurant there, let them make some money. Taxes and so on, charge less, and we will sell the land at a low price. "

"Wonderful!" Jia Xu slapped the table: "This also solves the employment problem of countless victims, and prevents them from fighting for land reclamation. At least it gives them some new choices."

Qin Ge's eyes widened. This is labor in lieu of relief!

"Those wealthy families actually have money and have no place to spend it. We can find some fun for them." Fan Zhongyan said: "For example, we can put on more exhibitions, big plays, horse races, etc., and let them spend."

"They've all been scammed. Even if we sold them land at a low price, would they be happy to squeeze them like this?" Qin Ge said.

"My lord's use of the word "sweeping" is wonderful." Fan Zhongyan picked up the teacup and took a sip: "Aren't we happy, don't we have soldiers?"

Chapter 441 The Way of Balance

To put it bluntly, I just want to force a fee, what can you do to me?If you don't accept it, if you don't accept it, go to other princes, even rebels like Yan Wang Yuan Shao, we will see the truth on the battlefield.

Anyway, because you are chasing profit, you have to be prepared to be plucked.

"Aside from recovering the money, there are other benefits, right?" Qin Ge said.

"Of course, as long as the war is over and stabilized for a while, the tourism industry will also rise." Fan Xiwen said: "People here know what's going on, but people outside don't know the truth. As long as this state is peaceful, there must be good things going on. come and see."

Due to the force majeure of Fan Zhong, it is called Biao here.

"Okay, okay, okay!" Qin Ge said excitedly, "Lord Fan, a talented scholar of the country!"

"They are all doing things for the common people." Fan Xiwen said modestly: "Distribute the surplus money to benefit the poor."

What Fan Xiwen did was simply to beat up local tyrants.

The common people's money will be returned in full, and the rich gentry's money will be divided in threes and sevens.

"What about the people from Jizhou coming to Bingzhou?" Qin Ge said.

"This problem is easy to solve. To put it bluntly, they are prone to fights because some of them are natives and the other are foreigners. The locals are just xenophobic." Fan Xiwen said: "They are all ordinary people, or victims of disasters."

"They are hostile to each other because they have no common enemy."

"As long as those aristocratic families are often dressed in gorgeous clothes, they will have a common enemy. Moreover, it is impossible for the people who work for those gentry to be affected by disasters, and the locals will also go."

"Coupled with the prince's military suppression, this matter can be easily resolved."

"By the way, in the activities for those rich people, you can add a courtship conference or something. After intermarrying, they will naturally stop fighting. Within five years, these people will be integrated."

"Thank you, Lord Fan, for your advice." Qin Ge took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice, "I don't know, Lord Fan, would you like to be the governor of Bingzhou?"

With that said, Qin Ge got up, took a step back, and bowed deeply to Fan Xiwen.

Fan Xiwen didn't move, but was thinking quickly.

In order to prove his identity just now, Fan Xiwen was able to display his talent vigorously.

And now...

Your lord wants me to stand in line?

Fan Xiwen wanted to go back to Chang'an to report on his duties, but he also saw the situation in the world. The fight between the princes and the rebels was a foregone conclusion, and most veteran officials like him would be kicked out.

Fan Xiwen is okay with power, otherwise it would be impossible for Qin Wenkui to be angry at Qin Wenkui for neglecting political affairs. He really wanted to do something for the people.

Although Qin Ge showed some skills in many operations, Qin Ge was famous after all.

In Fan Xiwen's eyes, King Wei is a respectful and virtuous corporal, and he is decisive in his actions, with the appearance of a hero.

Although other people think that King Qi is hiding deeply, but Fan Xiwen has seen King Qi go to learn how to help the world and govern the country, and he knows that King Qi is a real good king.

And the king of Chu...forget it.

Fan Xiwen was wondering if he should go on Qin Ge's boat.

He is the governor and has a great reputation among scholars. He believes that if he wants to leave, Qin Ge will not do anything to him.

King Qi went to Xuzhou, and I was transferred back to Chang'an...

Heh, it seems that King Qi has given up on me.

King Zhao occupies two prefectures. Although they are far apart, one of them is a strategically important place that must be defended against the prairie people, but the development of Jiaozhou should be good.

Will there be good results if you follow King Zhao?

"If the prince can transfer his ministers to Bingzhou, then the officials will definitely benefit the people of Bingzhou!" Fan Xiwen stood up and bowed solemnly.

Fan Xiwen didn't know whether his choice was right or not, but he knew that the people of Bingzhou needed him now, and that was enough.

…………

After asking Fan Xiwen to rest first, Qin Ge slumped on the chair and said to Jia Xu: "Wen He, do you think Master Fan has returned his heart?"

"For a person like Mr. Fan, don't worry about whether he returns or not." Jia Xu said, "As long as the lord sincerely seeks to benefit the people, this lord Fan will definitely stand by his side. Sometimes if there is something unavoidable to do, Master Fan will leave, or he will be disappointed."

"Understood." Qin Ge nodded solemnly: "Don't let Sikong take over all the official positions in Bingzhou."

"Well, Mr. Fan has a very good reputation among scholars, so he must be able to recruit a lot of people who can be used." Jia Xu said: "However, we can't suppress Mr. Sikong too much, and we must leave him three points no matter what. One of the official positions, after all, Lord Sikong was the first to invest in the prince, and it was also the biggest guard of honor for the prince in the beginning."

"This person will definitely be a powerful minister in the future, but the prince can check and balance a little."

"Not only that, Mr. Fan seems to be doing things for the benefit of the people, but he is somewhat against the family. Sometimes the prince has to stand on the side of the family, and can't completely stand on the side of the people. This balance requires The prince can control it himself. Unfortunately, it would be great if Wu Meiniang was the mother of the prince, her way of balance is not comparable to that of the sect."

"Yes." Qin Ge nodded, agreeing to Jia Xu's proposal.

"It's Cheng Yaojin, what kind of luck is this man, how can he always go out and pick up people?"

In this kind of metaphysics, Jia Xu has no choice but to believe in evil.

"His luck is indeed very good..." Qin Ge said: "Let's not talk about this, why can't Wei Zheng listen to these things?"

"Because he is far away from the prince, he has been helping Sikong all the time." Jia Xu said, "Naturally he wants to avoid suspicion at this time."

"However, my lord, please rest assured, it is impossible for Sikong to completely control Bingzhou."

"With you in Bingzhou, I don't worry." Qin Ge smiled.

Party factions were Qin Ge's biggest headache, but they couldn't be avoided.

It's easy to say anything when I'm still here, but if I'm not here...

Phew, luckily I don't have to worry about my absence or anything.

I have to get a son out quickly, so that the son can establish a relationship with these uncles.

I have to help him with the balance before I leave, so I can't leave a mess.

…………

After tossing about these things, Qin Ge returned to his tent.

Mu Guiying, Yang Yanqi, they are all too busy, Qin Ge will not be able to make out with them for some days.

"My lord."

Seeing Qin Ge's return, the two maids saluted at the same time.

"By the way, what's your name?" Qin Ge looked sick again, obviously he had to pretend after he came back.

Along the way, Qin Ge had been discussing the art of war with Mu Guiying, and Qin Ge didn't have the habit of the ancients, such as letting a maid serve him when having sex.

Now that Mu Guiying and Yang Yanqi were away, Qin Ge had time to talk to them.

It has to be said that the ones Qin Wenkui gave to Qin Ge were really beauties, one of them was not inferior to Cai Wenji in terms of appearance and temperament, and the other was not a normal beauty, but she had a heroine demeanor.

"My servant, Wang Qiang, is good at playing the pipa." One of them said.

"Little girl Liang Hongyu, good at riding and shooting." Another person saluted.

Chapter 442 Huo's Navigation

The first person was fine, but when he heard the second person's name, Qin Ge's whole body was refreshed.

Liang Hongyu?

The name Qin Ge is very familiar, it seems to be tied to Han Shizhong, isn't she Han Shizhong's wife?How did you come to me.

This Liang Hongyu should be a heroine!

"Looking at you, you don't look like a normal court lady." Qin Ge was instantly alert.

This person is not here to kill me at any time, is he?

You know, Han Shizhong is loyal to Qin Wenkui.

But no matter how loyal you are, you shouldn't let your wife treat me as a concubine, and then assassinate me!

"The little girl's father and grandfather were beheaded because they missed the plane in the battle with Fang La..." Liang Hongyu's eyes darkened: "All the female family members of my family were used as official prostitutes, and all the men were sent to the army. If it wasn't for His Majesty's kindness, send the little girl to Lord, the little girl must have fallen into the dust. His majesty told the little girl that the future of the little girl not only belongs to the prince, but also pays for the prince at any time. If someone wants to kill the prince, even if it means risking his life, he must protect the prince from disaster. "

"Your Majesty also promised the little girl that as long as the little girl can do it, my son-in-law can start from the uncle and will not be reduced to a low status."

Qin Ge's mouth twitched.

Fang La...

Anyway, Qin Ge thought that Fang La was really easy to beat. Her grandfather and father were killed for beating Fang La?

Qin Wenkui asked her to protect me, could he be so kind?

Because Qin Wenkui had done too many killing games against Qin Ge, Qin Ge could no longer trust Qin Wenkui.

However, Qin Ge really misunderstood Qin Wenkui this time. In the past, Qin Wenkui wanted Qin Ge to die, but now Qin Wenkui wants Qin Ge to live.
