Chapter 1208: The news of Ming'an Ulji's murder was passed back to Horqin
Smoking is harmful to health and is also a big profit and tax dealer.
Even if the tiger flag does not grow tobacco, sooner or later, tobacco will be spread throughout the Ming Dynasty. Instead of this, Liu Heng felt that it would be better to do this by the tiger flag.
Even if Zhao Yutu opposes, he will not agree to ban smoking, and tobacco is banned at all.
Tobacco sold in the south has already been sold to the north, but the number is small and only circulates in the hands of a few people, and most people don’t understand it yet.
He has his own plan for tobacco.
What the Tiger Flag needs to do is to make most people get used to the taste of tobacco, completely open up the sales of tobacco, and become a way of wealth for the Tiger Flag.
In the future, the tobacco with the tiger-shaped flag will not only be sold within the Ming Dynasty, but will also be sold to the Mongolians on the grassland and sold to Liaodong.
Grain and iron cannot be sold to Jiannu in Liaodong, but tobacco is different. Not only can it be sold, but the more it sells, the better.
"Sir, Director Huang has arrived, so why not ask his subordinates and Director Huang to discuss the relocation of several workshops of the Weapons Bureau." Seeing that he could not dispel Liu Heng's idea of growing tobacco, Zhao Yutu gave up and continued to persuade him.
Liu Heng nodded, looked at Huang Chong, and said, "The iron farm in Dayin Mountain has been completed. Your Weapons Bureau and Logistics Bureau should quickly make a plan to relocate the workshop, split the workshop as soon as possible and relocate it to the grassland.
.”
"yes."
Before coming, Huang Chong knew that it was for the relocation of the workshop, so he agreed very happily.
"Okay, you two go back and discuss. After the relocation plan is completed, send it to the Military and Political Department." Liu Heng said to the two people in the signing room.
Zhao Yutu stood up from his seat.
"Subordinates surrender."
Huang Chong and Zhao Yutu bowed to Liu Heng respectively, and then left the signing room.
Liu Heng took a sip of boiled water from the teapot, picked up the pipe again, put it in the tobacco, and then started smoking.
"Sir, can you give me some tobacco?" Zhao Wu, who was standing beside him, licking his face and whispered, looking embarrassed.
Liu Heng took out his iron box, put it on the table, and said, "Take it all, save some smoking. At present, the dry tobacco is still being tried to plant, and I don't have much in my hand."
"No, my subordinates didn't want it for me." Zhao Wu rubbed his hands awkwardly and said, "It's the guards. When they saw their subordinates smoking dry cigarettes, they fell in love with this thing after a few sips.
But I had no place to buy it, so I begged to come to my subordinates."
When Liu Heng heard that it was the guards who wanted it, he threw the iron box into Zhao Wu's arms.
At the same time, he said: "That's all. When the tobacco planting scales in the future, we can produce dry tobacco by ourselves, and we can smoke as much as we want."
He was not surprised that someone in his guard liked to smoke.
Although smoking is harmful to health, he will not oppose smoking by the people with the tiger flag. So many people in later generations have seen no major incidents in smoking. Moreover, if you forcefully control smoking, it is better to let it develop on your own.
"My subordinates told them to save some smoking." Zhao Wu happily put the iron box into his arms.
Now, only Liu Heng has some tobacco in his hand. If you want to smoke, you can only ask Liu Heng for it.
……………………
It has been a few months since Omubuhong from Qingcheng became Tumote Khan, and now he has sent someone to the capital to ask for the title of King Shunyi.
Behind this is the secret support of the tiger flag.
Omubuhong inherited King Shunyi, which allowed the Ming court officials to feel at ease with the Tumote tribe.
In the northeast of the Tumote tribe, on the Korqin grassland near Liaodong, Oba Taiji's yurt was caught, and several Taiji of the Korqin tribe gathered.
"Jinong, Ming'an Wuleji went to the Tumote tribe for a few months and should have come back long ago. His family has been at my place for several times." The person who spoke was a round-faced Mongolian, not tall.
Too high.
In the first seat, Oba was an elderly Mongolian man with shredded meat on his beard. He only heard him say, "It's not that Mingleji has been arranged to take people to Tumot's tribe to find out Ming'anwu.
There is news from Leji. Wait a little longer, maybe something will be delayed in Ming'an Uleji."
"What are you delaying! What I heard is that Ming'an Uleji has died in Tumot." The round-faced Mongolian said with a dark face.
Oba frowned, looked at the round-faced Mongolian in front of him, and asked, "Zhemuhe, who did you hear of Ming'an Uleji, is he dead? Ming'erji is back?"
"I didn't see Mingleji." said the round-faced Mongolian Tshemuhe, "It was the news from Chahar that Anwuleji was dead, not only him, but also went to Qingcheng together.
The golden men also died in Tumot."
Obba frowned even deeper and said, "It's not that after the war between the Tumote tribe and the Ming Dynasty's merchants, they were already seriously injured. How dare Omubuhong kill the people and Jin people of our Korchin tribe? He is not afraid.
Have you offended our Korqin and Tianming Khan? Could you hear fake news?"
He couldn't understand the killing of Ming'an Uleji and the Jin people in Tumote's tribe.
The Korqin tribe did not have much contact with the Tumote tribe, let alone any hatred. Moreover, Ming'an Wuleji went to Qingcheng to attend the Khan ceremony of Omubuhong. After all, he was also an envoy of the Korqin tribe.
Even if the people in the ministry are unwise, they should not kill anyone.
"The news should be true, and it was not the Tumote tribe who killed people, but the tiger flag." Takagi said.
Obba said in confusion: "Why do people with the Tiger Flag kill Ming'an Wuleji? You know, our Korqin and the Tiger Flag still have contacts, and their convoy will come to our Korqin to do business."
"I suspect that it is because of the Jin people, the tiger flag, who are killed." Takagi He expressed his guess.
"Golden Man?" Obama frowned deeply and said, "The tiger flag is just a business in the Ming Dynasty. What kind of hatred can it have with the Jin people?"
Zhemuhe said: "It is precisely because the tiger flag is a business name in the Ming Dynasty that it has a grudge against the Jin people. Don't forget that the tiger flag is a business name in the Han people, and the Jin people killed many Han people in Liaodong."
"What does the Jin people kill Han people in Liaodong have to do with the tiger flag? I remember there was a business name called Fan Ji. It was not that they sold things like grain and iron to the Jin people. As long as there is money to make money, the merchants in Ming Dynasty would not care about it.
How many Han people have the Jin people killed?" Oba said disapprovingly.
He had lived at such an age, and he had heard and seen too many of them. The merchants were all selfish. He did not think that if some Han people died, the business names like the tiger flag would be enemies of the Jin people.
