Chapter 381

PS: there will be another chapter later.

After a series of orders, Xiao Ming explained all the affairs of the fiefdom, so that there was no trouble at that time.

He also asked Pang Yukun to write down his words, and he would punish anyone who failed to complete the task.

Finally, he said, "don't think you'll be at ease if you get a title. If you don't want to make progress and waste the title that the king gave you, the king can still take them back."

As soon as this was said, the officials and generals suddenly became solemn. They didn't want to lose this honor.

Secretly vowed to work harder in the future.

The meeting lasted until the evening, when Xiao Ming was relieved that the work was finally completed and he was able to go to Chang'an in peace.

Of course, there are still some people who didn't read Tao at this meeting. It's not that they don't have titles, but that these people are not in Qingzhou now.

For example, Liang Dahai, the slaver, Qian Dafu, the miner, and Yue Yun, who is now in the shipbuilding workshop in Dengzhou.

As he watched the construction of the Galen, he also recruited cadets in Denver to increase the number of Navy personnel.

After the meeting, Xiao Ming went straight back to the king's house. He was relaxed when he went on with the government affairs.

After Xiao Ming left, Pang Yukun and Niu Zhen also went outside the governor's house.

At this time, people immediately reveled in their own title and honor.

Lu Fei was the first to say triumphantly, "Oh, two thousand taels of silver, six hundred mu of Yongye farmland. What should we do?"

Hearing the speech, Luo Xin disdained to say: "what should I do? It's not easy to do. Just buy a few slaves to farm. My family's Yongye field is bigger than this one. "

"Your family belongs to general Luo of your father. What does it have to do with you? You are just like me Luffy has a bad look on his face.

Niu Zhen sighed: "well, I don't know how to use this ten thousand taels of silver. Your highness is so generous."

Lufei was immediately compared. He said with a smile: "governor, if you can't spend it, I can help you spend it. I'm familiar with Liang Dahai. When he comes back, he will buy you some slaves with money and help you see a slave plantation. In the future, he will not worry about food and drink."

Now the people who get the reward are all holding Lufei's idea.

They had land in their families, and now they had so much more land, and they had silver in their hands. They all wanted to buy slaves to cultivate the eternal land.

Pang Yukun shook his head, but there was no way. He also faced this problem now.

He said: "as human ministers, we are not meant to follow your highness and prosper in the future? Since his Highness has already rewarded us, we don't need to hide. I think Lufei is right. It's good to buy a few slaves to come back to farm. People live on food. "

"But the slaves Liang Dahai bought are all his highness's. where shall we go to buy slaves?" Li Kaiyuan knew Liang Dahai's business very well, and then he poured a basin of cold water on everyone.

Lu Fei said, "is there no one selling slaves except Liang Dahai?"

"Yes, but very few." Pang Yu Kun frowned. "Now Qingzhou is short of population. Your highness is worried about it. Naturally, he won't be willing to give his slaves to us. But Li Kai Yuan, don't your merchants have people who trade in slaves?"

Li Kaiyuan recalled for a moment and said, "there are, but their scale is very small, and they have today, but they don't have tomorrow. The most important thing is that our Highness has not yet agreed to these merchants to trade slaves."

"Your Highness didn't ask about you. He must have forgotten. You can't ask. It's up to you. If I can't buy slaves, I'll ask you Li Kaiyuan." Luffy looks like a rascal.

He is used to fighting with Li Kaiyuan.

"Captain Lu, you are too shameless." With these words, Li Kaiyuan suddenly found that everyone was looking at him eagerly.

After pondering for a while, he said, "OK, OK, I'll ask your highness to see if other merchants can be allowed to trade slaves in Qingzhou."

After that, Li Kaiyuan went to the palace of king Qi.

Pang Yukun and others laughed when they saw him. He said to Niu Zhen, "in my opinion, your highness attaches great importance to the slave plantation, and the potatoes and peppers will have a bright future in the future. If you listen to me, you might as well plant these things. In the future, they may make more money than planting grain."

Niu Zhen was indifferent. He saw through the ups and downs of his life and only wanted to keep his reputation in his later years. He said, "we plant what Pang Changshi grows. We still believe in Pang Changshi's vision."

Everyone nodded after hearing the words.

After all, Xiao Ming and Pang Yukun are the closest, and Pang Yukun knows Xiao Ming's ideas very well.

After chatting in the governor's office for a while, everyone went home. They couldn't wait to tell their families the good news.

At this time, Li Kaiyuan had already arrived at king Qi's residence. He still walked in."Li Kaiyuan, what's the matter? Are you not satisfied with your reward? " Xiao Ming was a little surprised when he learned that Li Kaiyuan was coming.

"Your Highness, that's not true. How dare you question your Highness's reward? They are forced by Pang Changshi and others. They have to ask your highness if he can open the civil slave trade, so that they can buy slaves and go back to farming."

"Civil slave trade." Xiao Ming suddenly woke up.

Since he let Liang Dahai sell slaves, the slave trade in Qingzhou was almost monopolized, but now this situation obviously needs to be changed.

After all, in addition to Qingzhou, he also has the vast land of Youzhou. Now these lands need a lot of labor force, which obviously can't be taken alone with his own ability. Therefore, we can only mobilize more people to buy land for planting, which can accelerate the economic development of Qingzhou.

After all, he needs to be a leader, not a person who restrains the overall development for his own interests.

So he said, "they are right. Let's take this opportunity to open up the slave trade, encourage the merchants in the chamber of Commerce to engage in the slave trade, and allow them to open a slave trade market in Qingzhou."

"Yes, your highness." Li Kaiyuan is very excited.

Xiao Ming nodded. Now the vigorous slave trade in the west is in progress, and he can't fall behind.

Perhaps from a modern point of view, this trade has no human rights, but the fact is that it is in an era without human rights, so there is no need to talk about human rights and be a virgin.

After all, compared with the national fortune and the accumulation of wealth, this problem is insignificant.
