Chapter three hundred and eighty seventh: at all costs

When Wei Hongmin said this, his face was neither blushing nor breathing.

Qin Shaoyou was shocked by his shamelessness.

He thought that the Shizhong should not be so open his eyes and telling lies, but now it seems that he obviously underestimated this circle too much.

Speaking of this, there is really no need to expose it.

Qin Shaoyou said: "Since Wei Shizhong is a kind person, then I want to ask you what kind of good method is Wei Shizhong."

Wei Hongmin looked at Qin Shaoyou and said word by word: "Have you heard about returning to the capital?"

Qin Shaoyou yawned and said, "I heard some of them, but these are just rumors in the market. To be honest, if it is true, it is just a few people who are quarrels. It's no big deal. The capital has been moved to our Guandong, so there is no reason to leave. The return to the capital is a waste of national strength. If someone really supports it, I must argue with him. This matter is just a joke. Why, Shizhong Wei came for this matter? Does Shizhong Wei agree with it? What should I say that I shouldn't say, it's just a misleading country and people. How could I do this? How could I do this? Moving the capital has been a big deal in all dynasties, and it's not easy to say it."

I knew that Qin Shaoyou would definitely object.

Wei Hongmin was mentally prepared and had already said something, but he was leisurely. No matter what, he still had a trump card after all, so he smiled and said, "But if the capital is moved, the Eastern Capital cannot be abandoned. However, once the imperial guards are transferred, the prefect of Henan Prefecture will inevitably be difficult to suppress the situation. So I asked the Henan Prefecture to be guarded by His Highness. Your Highness is guarding..."

The word "guardian" is very serious.

Since you need a town, you need soldiers. If you have soldiers, you need food. If you have food, you have to pay taxes. If you pay taxes, you have to manage taxes. Taxes involve government affairs, so you must also handle government affairs, start a horse to manage soldiers and dismount to manage people.

Qin Shaoyou squinted his eyes, and his heart suddenly became hot.

Henan Prefecture...

This is not an ordinary prefecture. Although it is only as big as two or three prefectures in terms of area, the land is fertile, and most importantly, it was once the capital. As the former capital, its population was almost ten times that of ordinary prefectures. In this era, the population is wealth, not to mention. Most of the people living here originally had savings of more than several times that of ordinary prefectures. One Henan prefecture can be worth twenty Guandong prefectures. This is enough to estimate it in small ways.

Of course...the most important thing is that Chang'an is known as Guanzhong, which is easy to defend but difficult to attack. The only terrain that can be compared with Jiannan Shuzhong is probably the only one that can be compared with it. However, Wu Zetian moved to Henan Prefecture for defense. On the one hand, many barriers have been established. The south of Henan Prefecture are mountains and mountains in the east. The west is opposite to the pass in Guanzhong, and the north is a Yellow River.

It can be said that after decades of operation, although this place... is not as defensive as Guanzhong and can create a country in the middle of the country, except for Shuzhong and Guanzhong, this place of Henan Prefecture can be called the place of Guanzhong.

Once Qin Shaoyou guarded the place, relying on Mengjin's wealth, the military strength of the Shence Army, and the support of the Kanto gentry, he would be able to be a local emperor behind closed doors, of course...the premise is that he does not rebel.

There are millions of people here, and millions of people are almost one-tenth of the entire Tang Dynasty. Of course, although the population of the Tang Dynasty seems to be only tens of millions, Qin Shaoyou firmly believes that this number should be extremely conservative, because in this era when the gentry and family dominate, there are hundreds of slaves hidden behind almost every big family. Only by hiding and concealing the population can we avoid paying taxes. However, even so, Henan's population number is probably more than one-twentieth of the entire Tang Dynasty.

Population, wealth, and ready-made barriers, as well as the most perfect infrastructure in the world in the past few decades, all of these can be called perfect.

……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Qin Shaoyou did want to get a share of the capital this time, but what he thought was that he didn't dare to be greedy, but the Wei family was very generous. He waved his hand and sent Henan Prefecture in front of him.

This is almost fatal attraction for Qin Shaoyou.

And the reason why the Wei family... is ridiculous to say it. In fact, for them, what they want to plan is obviously the whole world. The Wei family wants to be the second Wu family, but to be a Wu family, they must return to Chang'an. If they cannot go back to Chang'an, they will encounter constraints everywhere. In Henan, it is not the Wei family. They use flowers to offer Buddhas in exchange for Qin Shaoyou's support for the movement of the capital, and also to be unrestrained by the assassination. It is obviously a good deal.

Both parties to this deal are actually quite interesting.

The Wei family is taking other people's things to pretend to be generous, while the Qin Shaoyou's side is crying through a false assassination.

But... everything is essentially what everyone needs.

Qin Shaoyou was moved.

He squinted his eyes and tried to calm himself down.

Then he looked at Wei Hongmin who was smiling brightly.

I immediately understood the essence of this transaction.

The things that the Wei family took out could make Qin Shaoyou the largest prince in the world. Almost all the powerful governors and Sima in the local area were overshadowed in front of Qin Shaoyou. What the Wei family got from this must be the whole world.

The more ambitious they are, the more impatient they are, the more they cannot hide their greed, and the more they are like wolves and tigers they are, the more precious things they can exchange, because from the beginning to the end, the Wei family is most likely to be the biggest beneficiary of this exchange. This is why Wei Hongmin is so generous and Queen Wei is so willing to give up.

It’s just Henan Prefecture. As long as you don’t cry or make a fuss and let the Wei family take this step well, the Wei family’s income will be ten times more than that of your Qin Shaoyou. So... they can spare no expense.
