Swish... Everyone looked at Zhang Quan. Faced with such a bad situation, can Zhang Quan really give suggestions?

Zhang Quan was not in a hurry, "I have three strategies.

The best strategy is to ask Your Majesty to send someone to announce that we are willing to take in all the people of Cai, resettle them, and not blame them in the past.

The people of Cai were just crazy in despair; if they were given hope, they would definitely settle down. After this incident, there would inevitably be many geniuses among the people of Cai. In order to calm the complaints of the people of Chen, we can appropriately charge the people of Cai for three years of accommodation tax.

But this will make us face the Shang Kingdom and Tang Kingdom head-on.

Zhongce, the imperial edict informed the remaining local people, all soldiers, merchants, etc. of the country to allow everyone to go and capture slaves, and all the wealth seized during this period belongs to the individual.

Use permanent interests to induce everyone to fight.

This will inevitably stop this chaos. We can even exchange the slaves of Cai State for resources from the Shang Kingdom.

However, this move may cause some families to be too inflated, and may even cause robbery in the chaos and indulge in evil.

The worst strategy is to establish countless defense lines, set up layers of defense, and clear the fields. Especially in the abyss, mountains, rivers and other natural barriers, and buy arms from the Shang Kingdom.

This move will inevitably cause fierce conflict, and the casualties will be immeasurable by then. A large number of deaths will harm the heavens!"

With Zhang Quan taking the lead, the remaining officials suddenly became "smart" and various suggestions came out, many of which were remarkable.

Prince Chen, who was sitting next to his father, saw that all the officials looked like this, and a light flashed in his eyes. The prince saw it too clearly. These ministers were not really helpless just now, but were afraid to "make a head bird" and were afraid of making mistakes.

As a result, with Zhang Quan, the "silly boy", these ministers became "smart" one after another.

Soon all kinds of opinions emerged, and finally summarized it into a practical and perfect solution: to strengthen the walls and clear the fields, and to defend the enemy at all levels is necessary. Secondly, His Majesty the Emperor should also express peace to the rioters, and at the same time, he should also encourage Chen State to go up and down to "picture" some slaves and wealth.

This is all supplemented by Zhang Quan's opinions; but the ministers also have new opinions, that is, differentiation.

More than 50 million chaotic people cannot be united. They can divide and use various rewards to cause civil strife among the chaotic people.

For example, killing one rioter can atone for sins; killing two refugees can obtain the right to live in Chen; killing more than three is considered military merit...

For example, if you lead ten people to surrender, everyone is innocent, and the person who leads the lead can receive a certain reward, etc. If you lead a hundred people to surrender, you can reward military merits...

In addition, we also ask for help from the Shang Kingdom. According to the opinions of the ministers, the Shang Kingdom should not come to support it; but with this excuse, we, Chen Kingdom, can openly accept all the population of Cai Kingdom, and it is not easy to ask questions in the later period!

In fact, asking for help from the Shang Kingdom is to block the mouth of the Shang Kingdom.

After the conditions of all sizes were discussed, the Chen State immediately started to operate. It was said that Chen State was not a foolish country like Cai State; especially the rise of the Shang Kingdom, the demise of Qi State, etc., which greatly stimulated the Chen State.

In particular, Li Yulong's move to completely kill Cai State deeply stimulated Chen State. Therefore, Chen State is now acting very quickly.

However, Zhang Yuan, Zhang Quan and his son are currently only "advisors in industry and commerce" and do not even have formal official positions. Of course, they can only go home in shame after the court dispersal.

I didn’t expect that as soon as I got home, I saw the old butler standing at the door and winking. After many hardships, the old butler still followed him, which was also touching.

The old housekeeper winked without saying anything or sending a spiritual sense to him. Zhang Yuan understood that some people came, came quietly, strangers, but it should be more important and things were shameless.

A look and a little movement are enough to convey this information.

Zhang Yuan and Zhang Quan entered the gate quietly and walked into the hall as usual; but did not stop when they entered the hall, but walked straight into the back hall; after passing the back hall, they entered an inconspicuous wing room, and then met the main owner.

Along the way, Zhang Yuan kept investigating to make sure that no one was following him and there were no people lying around him. On the one hand, he was checking on the people from Chen State, and on the other hand, he was also alert to strangers he had not met.

After entering the wing room, I found a seemingly ordinary person sitting quietly; the tea on the table was already cold.

Zhang Yuan and the other party looked at each other for a long time, but Zhang Yuan was the first to speak: "What's the matter with fellow Taoist?"

"You are Zhang Yuan?"

"yes!"

"Hello, my name is Xiang Bowen. I think you must have heard of my name!"

Xiang Bowen? Zhang Yuan looked at the person in front of him in surprise. How could Zhang Yuan not know Xiang Bowen’s name? It’s so well-known.

When Xiang Bowen started making gunpowder, Cai State was still a little confidential, but with Huang Fu's autocracy, many people were forced to leave the court, so this matter could not be kept secret.

Especially later, when Cai State wanted to compete with the Shang Kingdom for arms, etc., this matter was made public!

Only then did everyone realize that in addition to the Shang Kingdom, Cai State also had "gunpowder". In short, it can be said that the appearance of Xiang Bowen interrupted the monopoly of the Shang Kingdom (Anyang at that time) on gunpowder and contributed to the peace in the east of Yingzhou.

Well, the actual situation is that Li Xian, the bastard, is indeed a "bastard". After knowing that gunpowder cannot be kept secret, Li Xian promoted the formula of gunpowder everywhere; as a result, Yingzhou East became even more chaotic! In just a few years, arms have completely changed the war mode.

But no matter what, Xiang Bowen's name was also remembered by many people.

Zhang Yuan looked at the person in front of him, looked at him for a while, and finally nodded slowly, "I believe that fellow Taoist is Xiang Bowen. But I don't know what happened to me to look for Mr. Zhang today?"

Xiang Bowen straight to the point, "I can't stay in the East anymore. I think of the West, and even the other divine continents. But after all, a person is alone and lonely. After all, he has been thinking for a long time. I think of you and Zhang Quan.

I am familiar with the knowledge of gunpowder and arms; while you are familiar with the political, industrial and commercial affairs of the Shang Kingdom.

If possible, I want to be a companion with fellow Daoist Zhang and go to the west to explore together!"

Zhang Yuan’s first reaction was to refuse - your mind was flooded! But in just a moment, in a thought, Zhang Yuan narrowed his eyes and began to think carefully!

Yes, at this moment, Zhang Yuan considered a lot.

No matter what, Zhang Yuan and his family first betrayed the Daxia Kingdom, and later after Xiao Liming seized power, they defected to the Xiao Kingdom; they betrayed the Xiao Kingdom not long ago and defected to the Chen Kingdom.

No matter what the reason is, Zhang Guang has betrayed three times! With such a "rich" experience, the Zhang family has become a cross-border rat in the east of Yingzhou. Not to mention development, they are even very trapped in survival! No country, organization (sect, etc.) likes such a rebellious boy!

Similarly, even if the Zhang family does business, it is difficult to get the recognition and trust of the businessmen!

In a word, the Zhang family has no future in the east of Yingzhou!

What's more, there is a "Yuan Family" behind it, chasing her for life!

If the Yuan family hadn't considered the Shang Kingdom's problems, killing the Zhang family would have been a matter of one word!

With such considerations, Zhang Yuan pondered for a while, and finally said simply: "I want to listen to fellow Taoist's plan!"

"Okay, just! He is the one who does big things!" Xiang Bowen gave Zhang Yuan a high evaluation. His finger dipped in tea and outlined it on the table, "In the westernmost part of Yingzhou, there is also a country that attaches great importance to business. Of course, it only pays more attention to it, and it cannot reach the level of the Shang Kingdom.

But in general, it is also a country that attaches great importance to business. This country, called the "Liao Kingdom", is a country with a vast land of 8,000 miles and very rich.

Liang State is close to the "Wan Zhuhai"; further west of Liang State is the "Female Land Shenzhou" with a huge land of 8 million miles among the legendary nine states.

The closest distance from Liang Kingdom to Feitu Shenzhou is about 1.1 million miles, and it takes several years or even decades to travel back and forth.

But there are no dragon clans in Wanzhu Sea, and there are no particularly powerful monsters; even if there are monsters, they will be hunted by masters from Feitu Shenzhou.

And there are countless scattered islands in Wanzhuhai, where all sizes can rest; some islands are tens of thousands of miles in size.”

Every time I say a little to the blog post, Zhang Yuan’s eyes lit up a little; in the end it is really brighter than the light bulb!

A country close to the ocean and attaches more importance to industry and commerce;

A sea without dragon clan and monsters; a sea full of islands that can rest at any time;

Close to the fertile land of China, one of the legendary nine major states!

This is really a good place! A unique environment! This place is better than the environment in the Shang Kingdom 1

Without saying anything below to the blog post, Zhang Yuan can already see his future glory. He can completely copy the development model of the Shang Kingdom and create another Shang Kingdom... No, create another "Shang Empire".

Of course, as a cultivator, he is essentially pursuing ascension; but if he really wants to build a "Shang Empire" and gather his luck, it is enough to make countless people ascend!

But Zhang Yuan was Zhang Yuan after all, and he did not agree at once, but asked for many details. The two talked until the next day, and Zhang Yuan finally made up his mind...leave! Of course, the two were not familiar with each other during this period, so they had to swear and wait.

As for family members, if you are willing to follow, you can follow them. If you are unwilling to follow, you can give them some spare money to dismiss them.

This time, Zhang Yuan proposed a formal farewell to the Emperor of Chen. The Emperor of Chen didn't care at all and let him go directly. Because some of Zhang Yuan's strategies, ideas, etc. had been handed over to the State of Chen long ago; in other words, Zhang Yuan is now a useless person.

Such a useless person, the rebel boy, knew to resign voluntarily. Emperor Chen was too happy.

As for family members, Zhang Yuan was also helpless. When he heard that Zhang Yuan was going to give up the comfortable life he had finally obtained, he had to travel hundreds of thousands of miles to find an unknown result, most of his family members finally dispersed. The main ones were some concubines, maids, etc.

Zhang Yuan sighed, but looked at the people who were still following him. Zhang Yuan smiled again, "As long as there is someone following me, I, Zhang Yuan, will not give up on my struggle! Just for your trust!"

There was also a little crazy light flashing in Zhang Quan's eyes.
Chapter completed!
