Training Tai Sui

Before the horse came to a complete stop, Yang Guang turned over and got off the horse. His movements were done in one go, and he looked very chic. On the other hand, Qin Feng's appearance on the horse before was simply unsightly.

Qin Feng was a little dissatisfied and said: "Aying, which dog did you let go?"

Yang Guang held his horsewhip and said angrily, "Brother Ziyu, the son of the chief bookkeeper at the door is your friend?"

Qin Feng was taken aback, and tentatively asked: "Jia Chen?"

"That's right." Yang Guang nodded and said, "It's him who stopped my horse and kept talking nonsense, so angry that I almost didn't give him a few whips."

Qin Feng frowned, and he knew in his heart that Yang Guang was not the arrogant and arrogant guy in the later period. It would not be an exaggeration to say a gentle and polite sentence, which could make him so angry. Say something nice.

Thinking about it further, that guy first came to test him, intending to enter Qinjiazhuang, and after being rejected by him, he blocked the door of Zhuangzi. This probably means...he knew Yang Guang, or he recognized him. Lost Yang Guang's identity!

The purpose, of course, is to hold the thigh. The master Jing Zhaoyin is not a high-ranking official. For their family, it may not be possible to see that Yang Guang will succeed in seizing the heir in the future, but it is undoubtedly a good choice to hug the thigh of King Jin.

More importantly, to make Yang Guang so angry, I'm afraid he not only wanted to hug his thigh, but also said a lot of bad things about Qin Feng, right?

Damn Jia Chen, I don't care about you, but dare to speak ill of the young master. You wait, the young master must show you what it means to take revenge from a villain, from morning till night!

Chapter 59 Salt Iron

Qin Fengqi came and went quickly. After all, as a good-natured young man with excellent qualities in the new century, he has always believed in taking revenge when he has revenge. After punishing those who offended him, why is there any need for revenge?

Of course, this matter cannot be said on the bright side, because Qin Feng does not want others to leave the impression that he must repay him.

Yang Guang looked at the piglets happily eating pig food in the pigsty, and asked with some joy, "Brother Ziyu, may this method of raising pigs be popularized throughout the Sui Dynasty?"

Speaking of the newly learned words from Qin Feng, Yang Guang said excitedly: "Sheep grow fat slowly, and they also need grassland, and the amount of meat produced is not as good as that of pigs. I think if it is popularized, the people of the entire Sui Dynasty will be at least separated from each other. You can eat meat in a few days."

"It's not up to me." To be honest, Qin Feng was a little reluctant, but he still said: "You all know the way to make pork not smelly. As for the production of pig food and how to raise piglets, it's all up to you." In the record with Xuan Cheng, I just mentioned a method."

Yang Guang had never been a merchant, and he thought Qin Feng was a high-minded hermit, so he didn't raise any money at all.

However, distinguishing between rewards and punishments is a necessary quality for superiors, so Yang Guang said with a bit of a headache: "But brother Ziyu, you don't want to be an official, what should I do?"

I am willing, one thousand, ten thousand willing!

Qin Feng roared in his heart, the young master didn't know your identity at the beginning, he was afraid that after entering the officialdom, he would be eaten up by the old fritters, and there was no chance to enter the officialdom, if he had known that your boy was the future emperor, That young master, I am afraid of a hammer!

But the words spoken, the water poured out, I pretended to be forced, and I had to continue to pretend with tears in my eyes.

Blood was dripping from his heart, but Qin Feng put his hands behind his back, looked at the sky at a 45-degree angle, and said calmly: "An Neng's brows and waists are powerful and powerful, which makes me unhappy."

This pretense is good, no matter what Qin Feng thinks, at least Yang Guang looks at Qin Feng with admiration.

"Good poetry, good poetry!" Responding to Qin Feng's pretense, instead of substituting himself into the despised dignitary, Yang Guang praised loudly: "Brother Ziyu's talent is well known to me, and it's yours." Credit, if anyone dares to be greedy for ink, I will be the first to refuse!"

"It's not urgent." Since he chose to pretend to be aggressive, Qin Feng planned to pretend to be full.

"Nowadays, the piglets have not yet grown up, and they are rashly offered to the court. I am afraid that people who have never seen them may not believe it. You may wish to wait until the piglets grow up in the next year. At that time, even if the court has doubts, but there are The ready-made fat pigs are here, and they cannot be denied."

"There are also those peppers, which can be planted next year, and the people and soldiers in northern Xinjiang can also use this thing to keep out the cold."

When Yang Guang heard that Qin Feng was not only going to donate the method of raising fat pigs, but also that the peppers were not going to be spared, Yang Guang's admiration was almost to the point of surrender.

"Brother Ziyu is high-spirited and upright, but he doesn't take credit for his talents, but the Great Sui Dynasty has clear rewards and punishments, so he will definitely not treat brother Ziyu badly."

This is for Qin Feng's backboard, Qin Feng immediately felt relieved, and said modestly: "There is no need for this, I am a commoner, working in Daxing, and I don't want to be famous, I just want the people of the Sui Dynasty to get better."

At this moment, Qin Feng felt that he was Zhuge Kongming who worked in Nanyang. No matter whether others believed it or not, he believed it anyway. Perhaps this was the highest level of pretense.

"Let's go, rest for a few days, and start teaching you again today."

In the study, Qin Feng didn't dare to take out the map of later generations, let alone a globe, so he took a map of this era and said: "Salt and iron are the most important things of the imperial court, so there should be no need for me to Come and tell you."

It is really not necessary, even though Wei Zheng is still young, he also knows that salt and iron have always been violent businesses.

The reason is also simple, both of which are scarce and necessary.

If it was like a stone, it was something that was everywhere on the street, who would want it?

Especially salt and iron are very important for the army, but for the common people, the demand is not great.

But salt is different. As early as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Guan Zhong had reformed the salt system, making Qi the overlord.

Later, regardless of Qin, Han, Wei, and Jin, every dynasty, big or small, had a very strong control over salt, and the Great Sui Dynasty was no exception.

But the problem is that money touches people's hearts, and no one can resist the huge profits of ten times and a hundred times brought by salt.

If Yang Jian, like Zhu Yuanzhang and Liu Bang, came from a grassroots background and used his own team to seize the world, then the administration of officials in the Sui Dynasty might be clear for decades.But the problem is that Yang Jian took over the Northern Zhou's team. Although he also has his own officials, most of them are located in the imperial court, but the grassroots officials have been corrupted, and corruption has emerged endlessly.

This is not a secret, but what is frustrating is that even if you know the situation clearly, you have nothing to do in the face of countless officials.

After all, in this day and age, only aristocratic families can become officials, big and small aristocratic families collude with each other, if you want to pull carrots, then you can't just be prepared to be taken out of the mud, you have to consider whether you want to turn over the whole field, that The consequences are too serious, even Yang Jian can't bear it easily.

"The territory of the Sui Dynasty is not small, and the annexation of Nanchen was only a short period of time. However, according to the previous practice, even if Nanchen is destroyed, those aristocratic families will not be affected. It is nothing more than continuing to be an official in another place."

Speaking of this, Qin Feng changed the topic, and suddenly said: "The Great Sui Dynasty is very big. After annexing the Southern Chen Dynasty, the territory will be even wider. Compared with the former Han Dynasty, it will not be far behind. But for the whole world, the Great Sui Dynasty is only It's just a one-off place."

"This world is far wider than we realize, not to mention the Western Regions, Great Qin, Nanyang, not to mention the endless treasures in the endless sea."

"I don't deny that the princes in the court are all great talents, but their vision is too small. They think that as long as Nan Chen can be taken back, Tai Sui will become the center of the world, but they don't know that the world is far bigger than theirs. What you see is much bigger."

"What they have is far more than what they know."

"Take salt as an example. Why is the profit of salt so high? Because it is scarce and everyone needs it, which breeds corruption. And His Majesty may not be unaware of this, but he has not acted for a long time. "

Hearing Qin Feng talking about the emperor, Wei Zheng couldn't help but cast a glance at Yang Guang. Others didn't know, but he knew the identity of this person. He was a little worried that Qin Feng's words would anger Yang Guang.

But Yang Guang was just taking notes, looking very diligent.

He remembered what his father said a few days ago.

"Guanger, according to Su Qing, this Qin Ziyu is at least a candidate to be a censor. He is a talented person, but his knowledge cannot be wasted on a mere farm. You can learn more from him at ease. In the future ..."

Yang Jian didn't say much about the future, but in Yang Guang's view, his father will definitely promote Qin Feng to be an official in the future.

Qin Feng didn't know what his two disciples were thinking, so he just held the pointer in his hand, pointed at the map and said, "So, at present, it is unrealistic to solve the aristocratic family, but it is urgent to deal with corruption, otherwise those corrupt officials will be like the same The pile of maggots is constantly corroding the foundation of Da Sui, and sooner or later, the big tree of Da Sui will collapse because of them."

Yang Guang raised his hands high and asked after getting Qin Feng's consent: "Brother Ziyu, since there is an urgent need to deal with corruption, and the aristocratic family is too big to lose, what should we do?"

Qin Feng smiled slightly and said: "Sometimes, it seems to have entered a dead end, just like the current situation, there is no solution at all, but why don't we think from a different angle?"

Yang Guang was stunned, puzzled and said, "How to change the angle?"

stubborn!

Qin Feng curled his lips and said: "Corrupt officials, even if His Majesty can be ruthless and kill them all, how can you guarantee that the officials you replace will be clean?"
