The city is full of Yellow Turbans

Chapter 563, various measures to benefit the people

Zhuge Liang fought with all the Confucianists, no matter who came forward to sarcastically question him, Zhuge Liang could easily resolve it, and even the humiliated Jiangdong counselors were speechless. Lu Su also hoped to reconcile with Liu Bei and form an alliance. After all, Jiangdong has reached a critical moment , but he didn't know how to dissuade everyone, at this moment, Huang Gai strode into Jixian Pavilion.

"Kong Ming is a genius in this world. It is not a courtesy for you to talk to each other with your tongue. When Xu Feng's soldiers are on the scene, he doesn't think of a way to retreat from the enemy. He just fights with his mouth!" Everyone turned their heads and saw that the speaker was General Huang. Gai, Huang Gai was the elder of the three dynasties in Jiangdong, the minister of Sun Quan and Sun Ce Tuogu, and everyone was ashamed and speechless.

Huang Gai hurriedly invited Zhuge Liang to Sun Quan's study, and Zhuge Liang offered advice to Sun Quan, taking advantage of Yuan Shu.

"Mr. Kong Ming's thoughts coincide with Zijing's. To tell you the truth, I have sent envoys to unite with Yuan Shu, and Yuan Shu will lead troops to help soon."

"Report..." As soon as Sun Quan finished speaking, a person hurriedly ran outside the door. Seeing that this person was Jiang Qin, Sun Quan was immediately startled, and invited Jiang Qin to inquire. When he heard the news that Er Qiao had been robbed, Sun Quan immediately became astonished. Falling into the ice cellar, my heart was half cold.

"What should I do?" Sun Quan slumped down on his seat with a face full of disappointment, and muttered to himself.

"Using the opportunity doesn't necessarily mean joining forces?" Zhuge Liang seemed to have guessed something, and persuaded him.

"Oh? I wonder what Mr. Kong Ming's opinion is?" Sun Quan's eyes lit up immediately, and there was a look in his eyes.

"beat."

"Hit? I hope you can tell me directly." Sun Quan was puzzled and hurriedly asked.

"Pretend to be a Yellow Turban to attack Jizhou and lure Yuan Shu into Guanzhong." Zhuge Liang blurted out, shaking the feather fan in his hand lightly.

"It's a clever plan, it's a wonderful plan." Sun Quan suddenly realized, yes, just do what Zhuge Liang said?

When Lu Su told Zhou Yu about this, Zhou Yu smiled wryly, "Zijing, I thought you understood it at the time? Who told you to join forces with Yuan Shu? What I mean is to fight Yuan Shu and lead him to send troops."

Sure enough, Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang thought exactly the same.

Zhuge Liang went to Jiangdong as an envoy. At the same time, Pang Tong and Xu Shu arrived in Yizhou. , and sent Pang Tong away.

"Haha, the talent of the phoenix is ​​not inferior to Wolong at all. Look at the present, one is the chief military adviser of others, and the other is a little county magistrate that no one cares about. Shi Yuan, do you really want to be that county magistrate for Liu Bei? "Xu Shu almost laughed out loud. Who in the world doesn't know Pang Tong's name. Even if he used eight sedan chairs, he might not be able to invite him. This is good. Sun Quan ignored him in Jiangdong, and Liu Bei ignored him in Yizhou. Feng Chu served as county magistrate for Liu Bei. It's funny just thinking about it.

"Hey..." Pang Tong also sighed for a long time, but he went to the post generously. Xu Shu immediately sent a letter to Xu Feng, telling Xu Feng about Pang Tong.

What is Xu Feng doing now?Writing books, engaging in printing, hyping up food prices, droughts in the Central Plains, especially in the north, and a bumper crop in Xichuanjiaozhou, and Xu Feng's hoarding of grain and grass for many years, the Central Plains continued to be warped, Cao Cao fought for years, Yuan Shu was not good at governing internal affairs, so they There is not much food and grass, so Xu Feng directly borrowed the technique of book printing to raise the price of food, and directly bought food at a price three times higher than the market price.

This move can be said to be a bottom line, and businessmen value profits. Even though Cao Cao and Yuan Shu don't want to sell the food in the land under their jurisdiction to Xu Feng, those who are in business don't care. Isn't it a fool to put a lot of money and not make money?

Xu Feng raised the price of food. In order to prevent the outflow of grain, Cao Cao and Yuan Shu also had to raise the price of food. The price of food doubled and the ultimate beneficiaries were the poor people who suffered.

Since entering the land of Yizhou, Xu Feng's strategy for dealing with grain and grass has always been to only get in and out, and has been hoarding, which is more than ten years ahead of Cao Cao and Yuan Shu. Xu Feng maliciously raised the price of grain, making the already miserable situation worse Cao Cao was even more stretched, and even Yuan Shu couldn't stand it.

At the same time, Xu Feng issued a recruitment order to the people all over the world, not only to promote the peaceful rule of Yizhou, but also to welcome all comers no matter what skills they had. The princes only set up recruiting halls in their own territories, and Xu Feng has in his hands a sharp weapon that no one else can compare - printing and books, no matter what it is, he can walk to all parts of the country in the first place.

Of course, with the printing technology, many books came into being. Many great Confucian scholars in the county wrote books one after another, and all kinds of books that benefited the country and the people came out. , Trouble, manual transcription is laborious and laborious, and it is too thick, and it will soon be replaced by books in the land of Xichuan.

Following Jia Xu's suggestion, Xu Feng wrote a book about the morality of the Taiping Dao, the program of the Yellow Turban Army, and various measures to treat the people, telling the people all over the world that only by following the Yellow Turban can they have a peaceful life. Mastering the book, Xu Feng Then he grasped the direction of public opinion in the Eastern Han Dynasty. In this regard, no prince can compare with Xu Feng.

There was an endless stream of people who signed up for the Humble Academy and those who came to join the army. Even many hermits and great scholars, seeing that Xu Feng's books were sweeping the world and being so popular, couldn't stand their loneliness and planned to write down what they had learned throughout their lives and pass it on to future generations. Xu Feng welcomes everything.

At the same time, following "The Great Han Locust and Rat", "Swollen Hair in the East of the Yangtze River" and "Yizhou Crucian Carp" have also come out one after another. Of course, "Jizhou Buck" is also in the process of being printed.

A small book is like the news dissemination of later generations. The public opinion of the whole society is no longer controlled by the clan, but is directly controlled by Xu Feng. It can be said that it is easy for Xu Feng to want to discredit anyone.

Of course, Xu Feng sits in the town, and he has not relaxed in the way of people's livelihood and food production in his jurisdiction. The selection of the imperial examination has been on the right track. Xichuan is mostly mountains and hills. According to the crop planting methods of later generations, Xu Feng proposed the method of terraced fields on hills, which will be improved again. In order to facilitate the development of Jiaozhou and Nanman, they built water conservancy extensively in the mountainous areas where irrigation is inconvenient. Not only did they spread the advanced planting experience to the past, but they also spared no expense in building roads to transport the rich resources of Nanzhong Jiaozhou. In places where it is impossible to build mountain roads, after all, the level of science and technology at that time was too low, and where roads could not be built, Xu Feng built cableways according to local conditions.

No matter where they are, as long as they are their own people, they must live a good life, at least they can no longer suffer from hunger.

Recently, Shi Xie, the prefect of Jiaozhou, performed well, and he was considered loyal. Xu Feng sent back several of his nephews and used hostages to collect the loyalty of others. In Xu Feng's opinion, it was a bad idea, not to mention that he had absolute power in his hands. He has no power, and he is not afraid that Shi Xie will rebel against him.
