The 2067th chapter is inseparable from the original accumulation

After returning to Tuyuhun, the first thing Han Yi did was to hand over the war criminals like Qinling to Tuyuhun for trial.

This is a very important thing. After all, Tubo and Tuyuhun have already formed a deep blood hatred, so we must give the victim an explanation. The victim must say that this matter has passed before it can be considered as a past. It is impossible to say that Tubo believes that we are now the people of the Tang Dynasty and that you have no reason to seek revenge on me. This is too unfair. Tuyuhun must think that this can be settled, and then this matter is considered as a past.

This is the first time to end the war with a judgment.

When the Tang Dynasty destroyed the Turks, Jie Li was able to die in Chang'an. Jie Li was definitely an enemy of the Central Plains. When he reached the Wei River, he could not have killed anyone, but the Tang Empire not only did not kill him, but also supported him.

Of course, after all, it is a great country. It must have some style and cannot be petty about everything. However, the main reason may be that Li Shimin had to consider the feelings of the Turkic people at that time. If Jie Li and the others were killed, those loyal to Jie Li would definitely not be willing to surrender, and they must take revenge. After all, Jie Li was the golden noble of the Turkic people, so he might continue to fight endlessly, because at that time, the Central Plains could not have been in control and could only adopt a system of restraint. For the sake of the overall situation, Jie Li and those nobles would not be killed.

In fact, if you kill people, they are all killed on the battlefield. Li Jing and Li Ji killed many Turkic nobles. Li Jing, an old driver, is not ruthless, and he still has to grab what he should do.

But then there were good generals such as Qibir and Asunatur. These generals really made great contributions to the Tang Dynasty.

It can be seen that everything has two sides. Qin Ling was originally an excellent commander, and there is no doubt that according to Li Shimin's character, he might recall Chang'an and make him loyal to him.

But Han Yi doesn't care. Now it is the era of muskets and industrial production, and there is no need for a strong commander. Just suppress the firepower. Moreover, he uses the law to judge. This killing person pays for his life is a natural thing in the law. As long as there is evidence, it cannot escape the judgment of the law. This is actually a breakthrough. The more important reason is to give an explanation to the Tuyuhun people, so that this hatred must become history.

Of course, if Tuyuhun thinks that he can not kill them, then Han Yi doesn’t care! Anyway, he has brought him to you, so you can do it yourself.

However, Tuyuhun hated the Lu Dongzan family to the core. If they didn't kill, there would be ghosts. They sentenced all criminals to death as much as possible.

Qinling, his younger brother, and more than 20 chiefs, including the chief of the Bailan tribe, were sentenced to death by Tuyuhun. The place where he was hanged was at the entrance of Bailan Mountain, which was the source of sin. Lu Dongzan invaded Tuyuhun on the grounds of Bailan, and almost every time, so Bailan's nobles were almost sentenced to death.

In fact, Han Yi put all the crimes in front of them first and did not ask them to investigate. Otherwise, Tuyuhun would probably be sentenced to death. Tubo defeated Tuyuhun this time, and only Qinghai Lake left. He almost destroyed the country several times, and he fought Tuyuhun first every time. The resentment in his heart can be imagined.

On the day of the execution, many people came to watch, crying and laughing, all of them were there.

Han Yi was the only purpose of this, allowing them to vent their hatred. Now both sides can no longer make enemies because Tubo has been included in the territory of the Tang Dynasty.

After hanging Qinling and others, many people might be prepared to let go of this unbearable past, but some people don’t think it’s just over.

Fu Shicheng.

"Brother Han, can't we just count it?"

Wu Kelie, who had just arrived, was very excited and said: "We have burned our homes by them, and thousands of people have been displaced. It is one thing to kill people and pay for their lives, but we have to compensate for our losses."

Why did Wu Kelie and the others come to Tuyuhun to meet Han Yi? You should know that there will be another trial in Tingzhou later, which is to judge war criminals of the nine surnames of Tiele. They came here because they were afraid that Tuyuhun would leave all the money. They and Tuyuhun were both victims, so this matter must be discussed together, and there is no order. After all, they also know that the Central Plains is also consumed relatively largely and the supplies are not very abundant.

Yigu was also excited and said, "General Qibi and his team did too much. When our army counterattacked, he did not allow us to enter Tiel's territory. This is too unfair to us. If they beat us like that, of course they have to compensate us."

Queen Yan seemed absent-minded and sat quietly aside.

Han Yi was as clear as a mirror. They were not asking for money from Tubo or Tiele. How much money can the poor and remote areas take out? They were asking for money from the court and asked: "Didn't you respond to the situation to the court?"

"How come there is no? But the letters sent are as deep as the sea, and the court does not even have a reply, we heard."

Wu Kelie wanted to speak but stopped.

Han Yi asked, "What did you hear?"

Wu Kelie said awkwardly: "I heard that Your Majesty has passed away!"

Han Yi said: "So you know it too!"

Wu Kelie and the others looked embarrassed.

Han Yi sighed and said, "Actually, I was here to deal with these things and try my best to help you. The reason is very simple. The people in the Central Plains will not be hungry no matter how hard they are, but the people here are facing hunger. Everyone is the people of the Tang Dynasty, so they should help each other."

"Yes, yes, that's what we mean." Wu Kelie nodded straightly.

Han Yi said: "But on the way back, I heard a lot about Chang'an. I believe you have also heard some of it. If you want to support this place, you must first get things done. Let's not talk about you anymore. Now I may not respond to it. Moreover, the court is also in debt and may not be able to afford so much money."

Wu Kelie said nervously: "What should I do?"

Han Yi hurriedly said, "Don't be nervous first. Although the imperial court has no money, the Central Plains merchants have the supplies you need, but those merchants cannot give them the supplies to you free of charge. In fact, they have donated a lot of supplies to you, so I plan to do so. The Jinshang will issue loans to you rich merchants in the northwest, but the imperial court will help you pay all the interest. You take the Jinshang loan to buy the supplies you need from the Central Plains merchants, and then use these supplies to hire local people to help you resume production. In this way, at least the people can be kept from hunger. Of course, this also includes the people of Tiel."

Wu Kelie and the others exchanged their eyes, and of course they hoped that the court would provide free support.

Han Yi said again: "You shouldn't forget that you actually borrowed it once last time, but you borrowed money from the court at that time, but this time you changed it to a businessman. I remember that you were not very willing at that time, but what was the result? When you repay the loan, you didn't feel that you had paid back the money because it was too easy. That little money was nothing to you at that time.

I promised you that in three years, you will be much richer than before the war, but this money is nothing at all. Oh, I actually have no way to do this, because the court now has no money, only merchants can help you. The court cannot force private people to give you supplies, so I can only do this. Moreover, if I lend you money to you, of course I have to help you get rich. If you don’t have richness, then you will not be able to pay back the money."

When Wu Kelie recalled the debt, he suddenly felt quite strange. When they paid back the money, they did not feel much, but why was that happening?

It's very simple, it's capitalization.

Because there were too many labor after the war, they could gather a lot of cheap labor and capitalize everything. Once developed, the little money would be nothing. What tempting them even more is that there is an additional Tiel region. From the Korean arts point of view, Tiel must also be fully commercialized. This not only provides them with resources and labor, but also provides an extra large market. If it develops well, their wealth will double.

Wu Kelie and the others weighed the pros and cons, but finally nodded and agreed.

Han Yi said: "But the situation in Chang'an is unclear now, and the merchants are involved, so it may not be possible for the time being. You still have to rely on yourself. You have to do everything you can to produce goods and try to resume some transactions first. After I go back, I will solve the problem of the court. I will immediately lend you money to the financial store and ask the merchants to prepare the supplies as well."

Wu Kelie frowned and said, "How long does it take to wait?"

Han Yi sighed and said, "I'm not very clear, but I will solve it as soon as possible."

Wu Kelie and the others couldn't help but be worried again, but they had no choice, because they also heard some news and knew Han Yi's difficulties. If those problems were not solved, Han Yi's policies would not be implemented. They immediately silently supported the Central Plains merchants. In fact, they only had the concept of the Tang Dynasty, thinking that they were the people of the Tang Dynasty and yearned for the civilized culture of the Tang Dynasty. As for whom the emperor was, they really didn't care much. What they liked was the system. Now that the court can't afford money, merchants can use the money to help them. Of course, they hope that the merchants will win. If the merchants lose, they will be embarrassed.

Of course, these were all planned long ago. Han Yi could not just think about how to start this war without considering the matters after the war. After the war, it is actually the time to collect returns.

First, the entire northwest region will support the merchants in the Central Plains to put pressure on the court. No matter what, you will not kill all the merchants. If you want to kill all the merchants, the northwest will definitely be in chaos.

Secondly, Han Yi hopes to use the economy to control these regions, as well as those who have just occupied territories and to make these places highly dependent on the Central Plains, then these regions must be fully commercialized and operated with capital. Once capital is operated, they must rely on the Central Plains, because currency and commodities all come from the Central Plains, and the Central Plains market is the largest market in the world.

Third, help the Central Plains merchants consume excess supplies. Because the production scale of the Central Plains may have exceeded the demand of the entire Central Plains region, they have been expanding their scale before, all of which are prepared for war, and the large-scale use of steam engines is certainly not allowed to shrink them, and they have to find channels to consume these goods.

It can be seen that this primitive accumulation must be based on violence. The merchants in the Central Plains have just completed the final primitive accumulation. In fact, the crisis is just the beginning. This war is the complete primitive accumulation. The merchants controlled the productivity and means of production in one fell swoop. Otherwise, those merchants would not dare to challenge the scholars and officials.

Of course, Han Yi's plan has to go to this point, and he always has to fight this battle based on any interests.

After Wu Kelie and the others went out, Han Yi suddenly looked at Queen Yan, who had been absent-minded and said, "Is the Queen worried about Chang'an?"

Queen Yan glanced at him and nodded gently. She came from the Central Plains. She was very sensitive to this matter. She knew that if this matter was not handled properly, it would be very fatal.

Han Yi pondered for a moment and said, "Queen Yan, do you want to know the secret to my success?"

Queen Yan was a little stunned and said, "Of course I really want to know, but I don't know if Shangshu Ling is willing to inform me?"

Han Yi said, "Actually, it's not a secret. It's very simple. I always believe that tomorrow will be better than today, because whether it is good or not, tomorrow will come. If you don't believe in this, then tomorrow will always be dark. When you believe in this, tomorrow will always be bright. Difficulties are only temporary. It will always pass, and tomorrow will always be there. Then this bright tomorrow will come sooner or later. Similarly, in the difficult situation at the beginning, our Tang Dynasty has survived, and I don't believe that these little difficulties will defeat the Tang Dynasty. Although the death of Your Majesty makes me feel very sad, I am full of expectations for the future of the Tang Dynasty."

Queen Yan pondered for a while and suddenly laughed: "From Shangshuling's words, I have learned another set of secrets of success that suit me."

"So fast?" Han Yi said in amazement.

Queen Yan pursed her lips and smiled, "I just believe that as long as Brother Han is here, this light will come. With Brother Han's ability, and tomorrow, it will definitely get better and better."

Han Yi was stunned for a moment and said, "Then you have to bless me to live a hundred years."

After saying that, he laughed out loud.

Queen Yan also covered her lips and chuckled, with a hint of blush on her cheeks.

After a while, she suddenly remembered something, "By the way! Now Tubo has implemented the prefecture and county system, and we, Tuyuhun, also want to incorporate it into the Tang Dynasty."

Han Yi was stunned for a moment and said, "Do you all think so?"

Queen Yan nodded.

Han Yi nodded: "I can understand it too, but I'm afraid this will be confirmed until the matter in Chang'an is confirmed."

Queen Yan sighed softly: "I really hope I can end it soon."

Han Yi looked at Queen Yan in surprise.

Queen Yan said: "Actually, in recent years, I have always had the idea of ​​returning to Chang'an. Oh, I feel too tired, I want to take a break."

Han Yi sighed: "Actually, so do I. I also want to retire early."

"Yeah?"

Queen Yan said in surprise.

Han Yi nodded and said, "Actually, power is just that. Just try it out. There are many things worth pursuing in life."

Queen Yan nodded straight and said, "It makes sense. I met a painter named Wang Yuntu a few days ago. It turned out that he had been hiding here all the time and quietly drew very meaningful paintings. I was thinking at the time that it was okay to live like him!"

Han Yi said: "This Wang Yuntu is the most famous painter in the Central Plains in recent years. He also held an art exhibition to see his paintings, but it costs money!"

"Yeah?"

"Yes! I am the organizer, and his art exhibition has helped me make a lot of money."

Queen Yan chuckled and said, "No wonder, no wonder, whether it is Tuyuhun or the people in the northwest, they all think that as long as they are involved with Brother Han, they will not know life or death, but at least they will not be poor."

Han Yi laughed and said, "Go too much, too much."

Originally, so many troubles were gathered together, Queen Yan was very upset, but after Han Yi chatted for a long time, her mood immediately became relaxed.
