Chapter 455 Long-term plan
A few days ago, I arrived in Guangzhou and went to the dock to see the loading of large ships. I wandered around the city. I accidentally found that the cloth sold by the local Baiyue people was very different from that produced in the Central Plains. It looked better than that produced in the Central Plains. I saw that there were both ramie and mulberry trees and silkworms. I accidentally touched a local accusation written by the Southern Dynasty people that Shangguan Wan'er had read. The book contained the ancestors of Nanyue who were good at textiles. Now, when I saw this, Shangguan Wan'er had thought about it and had today's discussion.
The straight man Zhang Changzong of the steel man didn't expect that he had understood when Master Wan'er reminded him and asked quickly: "Master means that you can let the people on our island learn from Baiyue people?"
Shangguan Wan'er nodded and said, "Liulang, you have said that in overseas countries, the porcelain of the Tang Dynasty is the most popular cargo. Your fleet must need a large amount of cloth to go to sea. Since this is the case, we have ships and land, why not weave them yourself? These villagers have just migrated from the northern border and have little experience in affairs at sea. They are still unable to join the fleet and are closely related to you and complement each other. This relationship is not enough to entrust. However, the island is now in this situation. I think that it is necessary to make the people have a closer relationship with you, which is the long-term way."
It’s not enough for people to get to the territory, but people have to be loyal and unconsciously maintained. After all, that is their home, so you must manage your relationship well and be able to use it for me to be considered your own person.
Zhang Changzong was stunned! Damn it, who would say that the ancients had low IQ in the future, he would definitely be covered with big mouths!
What kind of relationship is the most stable in this world?
Emotional relationships, interest relationships, are not. Emotional relationships cannot withstand the struggle between time, and interest relationships cannot withstand the ups and downs. Only with both is the best.
Shangguan Wan'er's idea was very rational and pragmatic. The villagers followed him to migrate from the northern border to seek the island, share the land and reduce taxes, and the burden on him was light. However, how can we be united and have a strong relationship? It would not turn our heads into a weapon to hurt the Zhang family because of the court or other changes!
Shangguan Wan'er has been thinking about this issue.
Now, the result of her thinking is to put it in a simple way to tie everyone up with a boat, share weal and woe, and make everyone know that with Zhang Changzong there will be a good life and a success, so that all islanders will be in line with Zhang Changzong's interests and form a bondage.
Shangguan Wan'er said: "The people on the island were previously living in the northern border and were unfamiliar with the maritime affairs. If you want to select crew members and sailors, it is obviously not possible in a short period of time. So, Liulang, you look at selecting veterans from your fleet and select disciples from the villagers to teach them. In time, sailors and crew members of the fleet can give priority to the people on the island. This is a long-term plan."
Zhang Changzong understood that he was familiar with the profits of marine trade. However, as a person, you cannot just think about getting the benefits yourself, and you have to let your subordinates share the benefits. It is not possible to eat alone by yourself. If the team cannot be organized, it will not be long-term. As the main person, you must let people know that following you is beneficial and promising. The most intuitive way is to make money from the family, let the people below improve their lives and bind their interests together.
Shangguan Wan'er saw Zhang Changzong thinking about it and said again: "But, the villagers on the island had lived in the northern border before and were not familiar with maritime affairs. This method was not yet possible, but it was too late to win over the people's hearts. It should start from the beginning of your island. Therefore, in addition to granting land exemption, we have to find another method. Think about it over and over again. The two are inseparable from the Central Plains in Lingnan. In this area of Lingnan, there is such a method that is better than the Central Plains. For the teacher, the climate on the island is not very different from the Baiyue land, or can it be introduced and imitated?"
This is all about planning and planning for him!
He moved Zhang Changzong and stood up directly and bowed to the master: "Thank you for planning for your disciples. I really don't know how to repay you!"
Shangguan Wan'er received his gift, waved her hand and asked him to sit down, and said angrily: "What else do we say about our master and disciple? You have stolen all the teachers from the palace. It's good or bad, and you can only rely on your disciple to live in the future."
Zhang Changzong was startled and quickly expressed his loyalty: "Master, why do you say that you are dependent or not? Isn't this sad for your disciples? We are really relying on each other for your own ends. Master cares about your disciples, and your disciples are filial to your master, okay?"
Shangguan Wan'er looked at him, and her eyebrows were full of gentle expressions. She didn't say anything, but asked him to sit down and said, "But, although this method is good, there is a difficult thing to do. If this matter fails, no matter how good the method is, it will not work."
Zhang Changzong could naturally think of it, and frowned and tried to ask: "You must find someone who is willing to teach us methods, or can you ask for it for a lot of money?"
"Silly! Don't say I taught you so stupid!"
After being disliked, Zhang Changzong scratched his head, and was helpless. He could not pretend to be cute and cute like he was when he was a child. When he was a child, he had to pay attention to etiquette and words and deeds. You see, there are difficulties in being a child, and there are difficulties in being an adult. It is difficult to have a dual method in the world.
Shangguan Wan'er looked at his stupid appearance and didn't know if she felt cute, but she spoke happily: "Guangzhou will be a place where you often come and go in the future. I see, the plan given to you by your aide Liu Ying seems to have the intention of letting you take charge of Guangzhou?"
Zhang Changzong mentioned it and said, "At my level, it is impossible to be in charge of Guangzhou as the governor. It is impossible to have no soldiers in your hands. Wait until the disciples plan and get a general to do it."
Shangguan Wan'er nodded and pointed out: "Whether it is a general or a governor, you may be unfamiliar with the people's conditions when you go to a place? If you want to be able to handle it well with the local relationship, you must manage the local relationship well. Liuqiu and Baiyue can be called a neighborhood place. If the neighbors start with money from the beginning, what should you do in the future? If you have a heart, you should communicate with sincerity and treat each other with courtesy. This is the long-term way."
Zhang Changzong suddenly felt enlightened, and he nodded repeatedly, nodded a few times, suddenly reacted and looked at Master Wan'er suspiciously: "Master, you have been in the palace since you were young, and these ways of dealing with the world are not like what you can say."
Now I’m so smart!
Shangguan Wan'er glanced at him and was very calm: "I have asked your wife for advice, and she has made it to you."
It is not surprising that it is taught by Mrs. Zheng. He is an old lady who has lived a life of worldly style for a long time, so it is not surprising to think of these things.
Zhang Changzong nodded in agreement and said, "This method is good. Although it will take longer, the relationship will be stronger and will be beneficial to the long-term. The disciple has no objection. Master can do what he wants to do in the future."
In fact, Zhang Changzong had a longer-term plan after being told by Shangguan Wan'er. However, it is hard to say now. It is better to wait until he has made a filial piety and he is planning a position here. He must make up his territory before he can truly be considered his territory.
A consensus was reached in the general direction, and the master and apprentice also had to discuss the details. Zhang Changzong simply asked someone to invite Xue Chongxiu, and the three of them discussed together, and it was necessary to do things well.
As he was speaking, he came to report: "Mr. Langjun, Mr. Rusun has an urgent letter to him. Please read it."
