I seek economic hegemony in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 137: Impeach Li Heng, a traitor!

On a sunny morning on the seventh day of December, Li Heng took Meng Guang, the chief clerk, to the Weaving Department.

"Mr. Meng, I will show you a treasure today."

Meng Guangpi smiled and said, "What treasure does Li Shangshu want to show me?"

"You'll know when you come."

"But now I'm busy with official duties, I'm afraid..."

"Mr. Meng, don't refuse." Li Heng looked at Jiang Binsi and shouted, "Protect Meng Gong. The security in the capital has not been very good recently."

"Here!"

"Thank you Li Shangshu for your concern." Meng Guang smiled awkwardly, "Li Shangshu is so enthusiastic, I will go there."

Meng Guang followed Li Heng to the Weaving Department. This time he was not going to the Papermaking Institute or the Textile Institute.

Instead, go to the blue and white porcelain kiln.

As soon as he entered, Meng Guang was stunned.

"here is?"

Li Heng waved his hand, and Xue Liang immediately handed over a blue and white porcelain.

Li Heng casually threw it to Meng Guang. Meng Guang was startled and quickly caught it with his hands.

I took a closer look in shock and was shocked on the spot.

"This is it!" Meng Guang's eyes widened, "There is such a wonderful instrument in this world!"

With a crash, Meng Guang lost his grip and fell to the ground, breaking into pieces.

Meng Guang's whole body was filled with chills and he screamed, suddenly feeling nervous and distressed.

"Li Shangshu! I didn't mean it, I'm sorry!"

"Hahaha, it doesn't matter. I still have 1 blue and white porcelains here!"

"What! 1?"

"That's right, 1!"

After speaking, Li Heng turned around and walked inside.

The surrounding shelves are filled with blue and white porcelain.

Meng Guang was dazzled.

"Li Shangshu, did you do all this?"

"It's not me, it's them!"

"This..." Meng Guang found it incredible. He asked in a low voice, "How much does this cost?"

"A hundred stones each."

"One hundred stones?"

"Yes, one hundred stones!"

"Then 1, is 100 million stones?"

"Mr. Meng is right!"

"Li Shangshu!" Meng Guang suddenly stood up, then clasped his fists, "Please accept my bow!"

"Hey!" Li Heng hurried over and supported Meng Guang, "Why is Mr. Meng like this!"

"I was so offended before, I'm sorry!"

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter!" Li Heng said with a smile, "We don't understand each other, so some misunderstandings are inevitable."

Meng Guang is actually a very responsible person.

It's just that my mouth is usually a bit clumsy.

Therefore, historically, Meng Guang was from the Jingzhou sect, but because he often offended others with his remarks, his promotion was not as good as that of the Yizhou sect such as Tan Cheng.

"Li Shangshu is righteous!"

"These are nominally the income of Taifu Temple, but most of them still have to go into the national treasury." Li Heng looked at Meng Guang and said earnestly, "So I will have to trouble Mr. Meng in the future!"

"I am so grateful that Li Shangshu can trust me again!"

"Here, please come here." Li Heng said, "The blue and white porcelain we produce now is relatively rough in workmanship."

"Is this still rough?"

"We can still improve it, but that's for later. Now we'll sell these to Sun Wu and Cao Wei."

"That's great."

Just when Meng Guang was sighing, Li Heng suddenly said: "I have something to discuss with Mr. Meng."

"Li Shangshu just said it doesn't matter."

"We have been fighting all the time and the people are suffering. I would like to propose that the people be exempted from tax for three years. What does Meng Gong think?" "Three years of tax exemption?" Meng Guang was startled again and his face changed. "Li Shangshu, you know that, The treasury has been tight..."

"These 1 pieces of blue and white porcelain are worth 100 million stones. If we make [-] more pieces of blue and white porcelain, we can make up for it all."

"That's true, but isn't it too wasteful..."

"The people are suffering too much. Could it be that Mr. Meng..."

"Where's the Prime Minister?"

"The Prime Minister has agreed, but I think that since you are a great farmer, we have to respect your opinion."

"Since the Prime Minister agrees, I have no objection."

"Okay, I will have to rely on Mr. Meng for some things in the future!"

"Don't dare!"

"Also, has Mr. Meng finished counting the fields confiscated from Qi County, Guanghan County?"

"Ninety thousand acres in total!" Meng Guang whispered.

Li Heng secretly thought in his heart, good guy, there are more than I expected!

"How are you going to deal with it?"

"There is no good solution for now."

"I suggest that all the land should be settled on the imperial government's public land first, and the people with household registrations should be slowly transferred there. Of course, you have to discuss this with His Majesty before reporting it to the Prime Minister."

Meng Guang fell into deep thought.

He didn't know that Li Heng had already been eyeing the land property for a long time.

After taking Meng Guang around the Weaving Department, Meng Guang was completely convinced.

Li Heng knew that Meng Guang was an important role.

Future tax reforms and fiscal reforms must be implemented by him.

What follows is an eventful period. Not only are the various government offices in Taifu Temple making intensive preparations, but the Jiangzhou Papermaking Institute has also begun production.

Dahan's production capacity has been almost completed from zero to one.

The establishment of Jiangzhou Papermaking Institute marked the first step in the implementation of joint-stock trading companies.

This step is crucial.

Only by completing multiple points of scale can we realize social division of labor and complete industrial clusters.

To carry out economic exports and achieve economic hegemony, in addition to strong force guarantees, it also requires low-cost industrial groups.

Moreover, if you want to have monetary hegemony, you cannot do without the deployment of industrial clusters.

It's all just beginning.

At the end of the 13th year of Jianxing, Guanzhong was still in confrontation, and Sun Wu was still waiting and watching.

However, both Cao Wei and Sun Wu still stayed in the vision of traditional warfare and did not realize that Yizhou had begun to evolve.

Of course, this evolution has not been smooth sailing.

Still the same reason: uneven distribution of benefits.

In mid-December, the first internal group attack on Li Heng began.

The murder of Tan Cheng indeed caused a great disturbance in Chengdu.

Since Zhuge Liang came to power, the internal affairs have been very stable.

The person who died now was a young man who was ranked among the ninth ministers.

It is said that not only Tan Cheng was killed, but Tan Lun, Tan Cheng's son, was exiled, and even the Dan family of Qi County, Guanghan County was sealed off.

For a time, people panic.

It was at this time that the memorial to impeach Li Heng, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, was delivered to Liu Chan's desk.

At first, Liu Chan didn't take it seriously.

In the next few days, the impeachment memorial fell on Liu Chan like snowflakes.

Only then did Liu Chan realize the seriousness of the problem.

Look again, good guys, there are not only ministers from the Yizhou faction, but also ministers from the Jingzhou faction, and ministers from the Dongzhou faction.

It seems that Li Heng's killing of Dan Cheng not only angered people in Yizhou, but ministers from other factions were also unconvinced.

December [-]th, light snow.

Li Heng eats mutton at home.

Lu Zhi, Zhao Xiang, Ma Yong, and Jiang Binsi were all there, as was Li Xiang, Li Fu's son who came to visit from Jiangzhou.

"This time, there are too many memorials to impeach Mr. Li." Li Xiang suddenly said.
