I will be the master of Xuande

Chapter 260 Liu Jian Wants To Put Me On The Stove To Grill?
After discussing about drying salt, Liu Jian discussed another matter with Liu Yu and Liu Bei.

That is about the Daxing textile industry in Qingzhou.

Throughout the Han Dynasty, there were only two prefectures that had the potential to develop the textile industry with large-scale cultivation of mulberry trees and silkworms, namely Yizhou and Qingzhou.

Yizhou, without a doubt, is the birthplace of Shu Brocade.

With Chengdu as the center, the brocade weaving industry in central Sichuan flourished, so that "machines and looms complement each other", Shu brocade weaving skills became more and more proficient, and it is famous for its exquisite workmanship and various styles.

In the historical period of the late Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms period, grain and cloth were more "firm" than traditional metal currency.

As a high-grade silk fabric during the Three Kingdoms period in history, Shu Brocade was not only popular among the bigwigs in Cao Wei and Sun Wu, but also settled trades, paid "wages", and was suitable for various consumption occasions.

In recent years, with the instability of the current situation, the dominance of copper coins in the commodity economy has also been severely challenged. A large number of "scissors" coins have appeared on the market, that is, the outlines of five baht coins have been cut off, so that Shoddy money is a red flag for the overall currency market.

Liu Jian believes that as the situation of the separatist regimes among the princes becomes more serious, the situation will only get worse.

As warlords fight each other more and more fiercely, the purchasing power of metal currency will become weaker and weaker.

Therefore, in the coming days, the purchasing power of commodities among states and counties will become extremely important.

Shu brocade in Yizhou in history can be said to be the hard currency among the three kingdoms of Wei, Shu and Wu!

However, although Shu Brocade was very famous in the Han Dynasty, it does not mean that Yizhou's textile industry is the best in the world.

Qingzhou is also a big silkworm state, and its textile industry was also among the best in the Han Dynasty.

In particular, Qi embroidery in Qingzhou has a very high reputation in Han territory.

Before most people have a timely understanding of the purchasing power of money in the future, Liu Jian intends to seize the opportunity and ask Liu Yu to develop the textile industry in Linzi, recruit world-renowned brocade craftsmen, and take advantage of Qingzhou Silkworm Dazhou. Advantages, so that the local textile industry can be further developed.

Strive to use the fastest speed to replace the textile industry status of Yizhou and Xiangyi and lead the world.

Before the purchasing power of money collapsed, use Qingzhou's hard currency to monopolize the country's brocade industry.

Of course, the Jizhou Science and Technology Bureau has been researching new types of looms. As long as the research is successful, it will be put into production in large quantities. At that time, Liu Jian will set up a government-run textile factory in Hebei, and at the same time achieve high efficiency and high-quality goods. A route, using Hebei's textiles to harvest wealth at home and abroad!
Of course, the emerging loom does not mean that it can be created.

Not to mention anything else, the shuttle alone is enough to make the high-level craftsmen in Hebei troubled.

But a good meal is not afraid of being late, as long as it can be one step ahead, it is enough to lead the tide of the times, Liu Jian is not in a hurry.

After listening to Liu Jian's description, Liu Yu was deeply moved.

He is also a rare economic expert in this era. There are some things that he had never thought of before, but as long as Liu Jian explained to him a little, Liu Yu would understand everything.

He immediately decided to lead by example, in addition to salt and paper, and then vigorously develop the textile industry.

First, he planted [-] mulberry trees on his own land as an example, to show his determination to develop the textile industry as a shepherd in Qingzhou, and to encourage mulberry planting.

Liu Jian was very happy to see Liu Yu listened to such persuasion.

"If Da Sima can do this, the land of Qingzhou will surely prosper in the future! Papermaking, sea salt, and textiles will become the three carriages of Qingzhou's economic prosperity. No one can stop it, and no one can stop it!"

……

……

Liu Jian's envoys arrived in Luoyang in two groups to meet Dong Zhuo.

The first wave was to propose reforms to Dong Zhuo.

Liu Jian roughly put forward two points in his reform proposals.

One is about the reform of the tax system and corvee, and the other is about the reform of the procuratorial system. The contents are quite detailed, and specific methods and measures are also listed.

Even Dong Zhuo, after seeing these two suggestions, couldn't help being startled into a cold sweat, tongue-tied, not knowing what to do.

The first is the reform of the tax system. The content is probably to ask Dong Zhuo to try to merge the corvee and land tax and the head tax, and collect all kinds of taxes together. Apportionment.

In addition, Liu Jian also listed specific steps, including clearing the land, expanding the area of ​​expropriation, and unifying taxes and services. In addition, the collection of taxes and services will no longer be handled by the head of the village, but will be collected directly by local officials.

As for the second article, Dong Zhuo just glanced at the volume of bamboo slips about the reform of the procuratorate, and threw it aside.

"This son wants to throw the old man on the fire for barbecue?"

Dong Zhuo frowned and complained to Li Ru dissatisfied.

Li Ru opened the two bamboo slips sent by Liu Jian and read them separately, but he was sweating coldly, and he didn't know what to say.

When he was young, Fang heard him say slowly: "Xiangguo, although what Liu Jianzhi said meant to harm Xiangguo, I have to admit that what he thinks is indeed far from ordinary people. These two reform methods are all aimed at the key points. ! If it can be done, then Xiangguozu can be called No. 1 in the ages!"

"That has to be done!" Dong Zhuo's expression was a little annoyed: "Wen You, please take a closer look at the old man's face!"

Li Ru looked Dong Zhuo up and down suspiciously: "What did Xiangguo want me to see?"

"Do you think the old man looks like a donkey?"

Li Ru was taken aback when he heard the words, and then couldn't help laughing.

"It's not like it! Liu Jian wants to use Xiangguo, but he is still far behind!"

Dong Zhuo snorted, and said: "I want to rule those famous families, I want to rule those court officials, but I can't completely tear myself apart with them, beat when it's time to beat, and use it when it's time to use it." Use it! How can we get it all to death!"

"Yes, yes, what Xiangguo said is true!"

"Those famous Confucian scholars who were confiscated by the old man to Beijing, have all arrived in Beijing?"

Li Ru hesitated a little when he heard the words, and said: "Now, only a few people such as Cai Yong, Han Fu, and Kong Ni have been ordered to arrive in Beijing, and the rest of them have not yet arrived..."

"Order to urge again, keep urging, not only the order from the prime minister's mansion, but also an edict from His Majesty's side, understand?"

"Here!"

In the recent days, Dong Zhuo felt that his coercion over the nobles and nobles of the DPRK and China was almost enough, and it was time to win over them.

Although Dong Zhuo is now following the route of "supporting the big man" and "unifying with the emperor and the queen mother", no matter how he unites, he must have capable people to help him... The capable people here are not those who help him kill people and fight wars Liangzhou people, but the gentry who can govern the country and make the country run normally.

Previously, Zhang Jiao's letter was thrown out in the court hall to deter the nobles and ministers, and he successfully established the thirteen cao, took over the power of the ten permanent servants in the local area, and seized all the power in the court, and then let the great Sima Liu Yu's becoming the Shanggong weakened the influence of Taifu Yuan Kui in the world, and recently, he made Yang Biao the Sikong, and Yuan Ji himself was arranged by him to return to the position of the Taifu.

As for the position of Situ vacated by Yuan Ji, Dong Zhuo arranged for Huang Wan.

Dong Zhuo had a great time, but now that he has the authority and it is time to govern the country, he finds that he is a little bit at a loss.

This is the huge hidden danger behind his success in controlling the Eastern Han court and his speculation.

Therefore, now, he has started to select celebrities to enter the capital again, to establish a new personality for himself, and at the same time, he has begun to recruit high-reputation talents as assistants.

As for this job, he handed it over to Zhou Yan and Zheng Tai, and asked them to select for him.

The people selected by Dong Zhuo included Xun Shuang, Cai Yong, He Yong and other great Confucian scholars, as well as Zhang Miao, Zhang Zi, Liu Dai, Wang Fen, Kong Ni, Han Fu, Jiao He and others.

In addition to recruiting celebrities and capable people, Dong Zhuo also began to give sweet dates to the court officials of the Manchu Dynasty.

He let the children of Gongqing's family make up for the Langguan lost due to the previous Luoyang Rebellion, showing his sincerity.

Dong Zhuo's meaning is obvious. During this period of time, everyone fights, quarrels, and plays. It's time to make up, right?
But the problem is, Dong Zhuo's move is futile, some people in this world can't reconcile with Dong Zhuo at all.

Never.

And if these people don't reconcile with Dong Zhuo, then everything Dong Zhuo has done to the Kanto gentry will be in vain.

Now, people who do not reconcile with Dong Zhuo include Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Cao Cao, Qiao Mao, Wang Kuang, Bao Xin and others.

They have been planning secretly all the time, ready to deal a heavy blow to Dong Zhuo at any time, making him unable to stand up.

It's just that they haven't found a suitable opportunity and reason yet.

But that moment, I believe, will not be too long.
