Chapter 3: Everything is messy in troubled times

"Zhou Guoping's "Heart-Burning Plan" has been implemented."

When Qian Shaoshao found Yun Zhao, he found that he was I took my two sons to collect money.

The father and son were all chewing elm coins in their mouths, seemingly very happy.

"Have the White Lotus Sect been eliminated?"

"Not yet. The crazy officers and soldiers are clearing the countryside. However, the remnants of the White Lotus Sect don't seem to have any intention of escaping. Nanjing City The remnants of the White Lotus Sect hid in the homes of some wealthy families and continued to resist. The White Lotus Sect members in the countryside were organized and continued to rob homes and homes.

Nanjing City, as well as Yingtian Mansion..."

Hearing this, Qian Shao Shao took the elm money, took out the huozhezi, and put the elm money in his hand. The tip was lit.

"This matter has nothing to do with us."

Yun Zhao nodded and said: "Send Zhou Guoping's woman to Hanzhong."

Qian Shaoshi frowned Said: "It's not that..."

Yun Zhao interrupted Qian Shaoshao and said: "Compared to destroying Zhou Guoping, I can still accept the fact that Zhou Guoping likes women."

Qian Shaoshao said: "She is a secret agent, and she should face some things."

Yun Zhao shook his head and said: "Before she became a secret agent, she was a woman, or in other words, a kind-hearted person. A woman only has a heart that refuses to admit defeat, so she strives for the upper hand.

She is different from Han Xiufen. Han Xiufen simply likes to make achievements.

Seriously, Zhou Guoping. This situation has a lot to do with us."

Qian Shaoshao took a bite of the money and said, "Why don't you ask about Ying Tianfu, but pay more attention to Zhou Guoping?"

Yun Zhao glanced at Qian Shaoshao and said: "We must put people first."

Qian Shaoshao felt that this sentence made sense. After all, in Nanjing City, the people from Yingtian Mansion have not yet become Lantian ministers. Time...

Fifteen years after entering Chongzhen, Yun Zhao has changed a lot.

From Qian Shaoshao's perspective, Yun Zhao has become an emperor.

I have become terrifyingly calm. When facing any state affairs, I no longer have much emotion.

However, as long as he does not talk about state affairs, Yun Zhao is a purely kind-hearted person, even an emotional person.

When he heard that the lives of the people under his rule were still difficult and the people were in dire straits, he would burst into tears, get angry, and even donate his salary to help those in need.

He was even watching period dramas rehearsed by students from Yushan Academy. He would shed tears when encountering some sad scenes...

However, the rebellion in Yingtian Mansion caused More than 20,000 people were killed and injured, many salt merchants and noble families suffered. The scene was horrific, but he turned a deaf ear.

Just like now, because I have money in my hand, attracted many children. While he was distributing the elm coins, he himself was smiling like a child.

Everyone is making a difference!

Yun Zhao is the source of these changes.

If Yun Zhao was angry at this time, Yun Yang would not dare to say another word.

This is a natural thing. When everyone starts a business, feelings are above all else. When the business becomes bigger, rules become paramount.

It doesn’t matter who eats an apple. How to divide a golden apple should be discussed carefully.

Haizhi left Lantian County and went to Lantian City, the purpose of which was to give Yunzhao and his brothers a chance to cut themselves off. At this time, when it was time to talk about friendship, everyone could still talk about friendship.

After all the rules are established, it’s time to speak up.

Lantian County now controls more than 10% of the Ming Dynasty, and their expansion has not slowed down, but is accelerating.

The Lantian people, who were based on the 200,000 Lantian regular troops, seemed unscrupulous when expanding outward.

However, the remaining power of the imperial court cannot be used against Lantian. Anyone with a basic understanding of Lantian's strength knows that if the imperial court goes to war with Lantian at this time, the result will be an accelerated destruction of the Ming Dynasty.

For the old vested interests of the Ming Dynasty, Lantian was a group of people with strict laws but very reasonable.

Of course, this very reasonable point is compared with Li Hongji and Zhang Bingzhong.

Lantian County was even more reasonable than the imperial court in certain situations.

At least once you enter Lantian County, no one will snatch anything that belongs to you except the land.

Over the years, the gentry of the Ming Dynasty who have been educated by Wang Jiayin, Wang Ziyong, Gao Yingxiang, Li Hongji, and Zhang Bingzhong no longer regard money as so important.

Especially land!

After experiencing the cruel war, they realized that they really cannot take away the last fig leaf from the farmer...

However, this truth can only be understood by a generation, By the second generation, they will still forget everything.

Yun Zhao has no good solution for this.

Back home with one son on his back and one son in his arms, the two sons were still unwilling to get off their father. Yun Zhang even straddled his father's neck, humping his buttocks. My father worked as a horse rider.

The child is young, so Yun Zhao naturally has a lot of patience. He will be able to fight in two years.

Royal fathers and sons generally rarely talk about emotions, or in other words, their emotions are basically verbal or performative.

The status of a monarch and a minister has already shattered all emotions. When a father can chop off his son's head at any time and at any time, it seems very hypocritical to talk about relationships.

Many people’s impressions of their fathers basically come from childhood.Years later, father and son have basically become rivals.

So, Yun Zhao wanted to get closer to his children before they developed a rebellious mentality and develop more family ties, so as not to be annoying when they grow old in the future and cause his son to have to lift The knife forced him to get out.

"Why do you have time to play with the children for so long today?" Feng Ying asked in a low voice when she saw the two children fell asleep.

Yun Zhao sighed and said: "Flattering them."

"Flattering?"

"It's impossible not to flatter them. Liu Zeqing's son used Liu Zeqing alive. The pillow is so suffocating."

"I've been thinking about nothing all day long. Zhang'er and Xian'er are both good children. You shouldn't compare such a disgusting person with our children!"

"What's even more disgusting is that Li Hongji's wife ran away with someone again, this time with Li Yan."

Feng Ying sighed and said: "Sorry, Miss Red."

Yun Zhaodao: "You don't have to worry about this woman Hong Niang anymore."

"Why?"

"I heard that she ran away with her two children. ."

"Eh? Will you come to us?"

"No, I heard that Li Yan was chasing Li Hongji very hard this time. Unfortunately, not only did Li Hongji take away a large amount of money and food, he also took away almost 30,000 people.

The reward from the court has been received. Li Yan was named Dongping Bo and stationed in Xuzhou!

Li Hongji swore to God that he would skin and cramp this couple."

"However, Li Hongji's army still stayed in Luzhou."

" Where can he go without a lot of money and food? I guess Li Hongji will start looting again."

"Yangzhou?"

"No, it's Xuzhou!"

"Is there any connection between Liu Zeqing's accident and Li Yan's surrender to the imperial court?"

Yun Zhao said with a smile: "Yes, there is a shadow of Cao Huachun in it. I heard that the official position of Uncle Dongping was originally Liu Zeqing's "

Feng Ying sighed and said: "We have no regard for human relations."

Yun Zhao said: "This is scary, the court finally decided not to be shameless."

After Feng Ying heard this news, she would naturally not be too happy. The red lady was one of her few friends. At this moment, seeing her old friend abandoned by the one she loved again, she had to It is impossible to say that I have no idea at all.

No way, the news Yun Zhao knows here is generally very dark, especially the news about the Ming Dynasty, Li Hongji and Zhang Bingzhong. The news from these places makes Yun Zhao's world so dark that he can't even see his fingers. .

Fortunately, there will always be some positive news coming from Hanzhong, Xiangyang, Ningxia Town, Baiyin Factory, and even Shuzhong, which gives Yun Zhao a little relief and will not make him distrustful of this world. Totally disappointed.

The news from the barren Longzhong is the most pleasant. Clouded Leopard, heThe tobacco leaves they planted with their own money achieved a huge harvest, and the locals also specially developed a novel smoking method - hookah.

Since the Silver Factory produces copper, a smoking device called a hookah was created. To be precise, tobacco leaves are burned in a pot to produce smoke, and then the violent dry smoke is filtered by water. , it becomes soft and has a long aftertaste.

This quickly made tobacco become the most value-added cash crop near the silver factory. Qingcheng, which was once barren, has now become a famous tobacco distribution center, and people are happy to make money every day.

The refugees in Hanzhong have basically gone down the mountain. This has added more than one million people to the household registration of Lantian County. According to Xu Wuxiang, in two years, he will be able to Hanzhong is coming back to life.

It’s just that there are still many thieves in Hanzhong, and the Yun’s black-clothed men still need to continue to hunt them down. Therefore, it is impossible for the seconded Yun’s black-clothed men to be sent back in a short time.

The rice produced once a year in Ningxia Town is surprisingly delicious. Ningxia Town plans to increase the rice planting area this year.

This is very good. It shows that Ningxia Town has started to develop from having enough food to eating well.

The land distribution in Xiangyang has been completely completed. The wealthy households who were born in Guanzhong attach great importance to the land in Xiangyang. Many businesses even regard Xiangyang as a transfer station for Lantian County to enter Fujian and Guangdong in the future.

As a result, Xiangyang’s commercial prosperity even exceeded that of agriculture, which had just begun.

As for Shuzhong, it is very interesting.

The Yun family did not take the initiative to expand in Shu. Instead, the local people were actively moving closer to the Yun family. In the middle of Shu, the Lantian County boundary monument once again began a long journey.

Qin Liangyu wrote to Feng Ying several times to warn the Yun family not to expand into Shu, but Feng Ying ignored them all.

The warning of the female general is actually very weak. Nowadays, the biggest business with Guanzhong is her Shizhu Chieftain.

When Lantian County's business policy tilted slightly towards Shizhu Tusi, the output of that barren land was not enough for Duoduo Business Group to swallow it up in one go.

After making money, Shizhu Toast was directly exchanged for grain, salt, and cloth at the Guanzhong Market. After being transported back to Shizhu Toast, he sold it to more remote places, making a huge profit.

Now that things have happened, Ma Xianglin, the eldest son of the female general who should have died long ago, is now living very healthily and often exchanges letters with Yun Zhao. In the letters, the commander of the Shizhu Xuanwei Division often said Expressing dissatisfaction with the warlords in Yunnan and Guizhou.

I hope that Yun Zhao will provide money, food, and weapons, and he will contribute to quell the warlords of the people in Yunnan and Guizhou and give the people a peaceful world.

Yun Zhao takes it for granted that he is always a good person to talk to.
