Time passed day by day, and since that rumor, the whole world seemed to have forgotten about this incident, and there was no follow-up.

However, it is obvious that the whole country is about to come in a storm, and many major events have emerged one after another, and the Mongols in the north and the Japanese in the southeast have not stopped. Guangdong was even more eventful, Zhang Lian of Chaozhou was already preparing to establish the country and Kaiyuan, and the Su and Yao people in the Luokeshan area of Zhaoqing Prefecture revolted again.

The turmoil in Luoke Mountain in Zhaoqing Prefecture was not too much, and it was quickly suppressed by officers and soldiers, but it exposed that the Pingyao Battle two years ago did not completely solve the problem, which made the situation of Wang Fang, the governor of Liangguang, more and more embarrassing.

Wang Fu and Xu Ji, the governor of Zhaoqing Prefecture, adopted the suggestion of Lu Luan, the governor of Zhaoqing Prefecture, and cut the four capitals of Taiping, Olive, Dapu and Yongyi in Sihui County and placed them in Guangning County, taking the meaning of widespread tranquility.

This move shows that the high-ranking officials in Guangdong have an infinite yearning for "tranquility."

It's just that the ideal is very plump, and the reality is very skinny.

The great pirate Xu Chaoguang led the Japanese to invade Jieyang in Chaozhou, causing the local officers and soldiers to be tired of coping, and Wang Fu personally went to take the town, and the situation of the Japanese in the coastal areas of Guangdong became more and more severe.

But all this seems to have nothing to do with the western part of Guangdong, let alone the Leizhou Mansion that occupies the Leizhou Peninsula.

The construction here is still in full swing, and all kinds of Daming commodities are transported to the Nanyang countries through the Leizhou wharf, presenting a thriving scene.

Leizhou, already in the vast territory of the Ming Dynasty, is like a rising star.

In the blink of an eye, the end of the year is approaching.

The core members of the United Business Group gathered in the living room of the Lin Mansion, and everyone's faces were filled with joy.

In the past year, United Restaurant, United Rice Shop, United Salt Shop, Yipin Sauce and United Cooperative Workshop have all achieved good results, among which the performance of Lianhe Cooperative Workshop is the most prominent.

Lin Haoran has always liked to wear ordinary scholar's clothes in his own house, and at this time he was sitting upright on the first seat, like an old monk in a meditation, slowly sipping a hot tea.

On both sides, the core personnel of the United Business Group sat separately, Shen Liuye and others sat in turn, but Gu Mancang was missing, replaced by Gu Qingfeng, Hua Zisu and Huang Dafu.

Behind some of them, there are their sons and nephews standing in a regular manner, and they are the second generation of the United Merchant Group that the United Business Group is currently focusing on cultivating. As for the little girl who was trained more emphatically, she didn't know where to run.

The three young people were standing in the hall and talking, on the left was Lin Qiang from Changlin Village, in the center was Shen Jun, the son of Shen Liuye, and on the right was Yang Chunlai's son Yang Fuhe.

The three of them had just returned from an inspection in Luzon, and they were following everyone present to talk about the situation in Luzon.

In particular, Shen Jun went to find a Cantonese who settled in Luzon this time. As a result, we learned a lot about Luzon, and learned that the local fields were not worth anything at all, and that many people lived a primitive life.

"I've been listening to your nonsense for a long time! You just say, is Luzon suitable for cotton and pepper cultivation? Shen Liuye seemed to be unable to get used to his son's strength, and immediately asked sharply.

Shen Jun was stunned for a moment, and dared to say that he had been playing the piano to the cow for a long time, and after blinking his eyes, he nodded seriously: "Yes!" The land fertilizer there is tens of thousands of acres of borderless land everywhere, and it is a waste to grow cotton and peppers! ”

"Growing chili peppers will be wasted? Do you know how lucrative peppers can be, and what can be compared to growing them? Yang Chunlai immediately rolled his eyes and asked seriously.

The United Restaurant is fully operated by him, and the price of a high-quality hot pot soup has been speculated by him extremely high, and the profit is so high that he is embarrassed to reveal it to outsiders.

Shen Jun knew that he was speechless, his original intention was that he could grow any kind of grain there, let alone grow drought-tolerant cotton and peppers, and hurriedly accused Yang Chunlai: "My nephew knows his mistake, please don't blame Uncle Yang!" ”

"Everyone, please look at the areas marked on this map, which are the preliminary findings of the three of us on this trip, and these places are suitable for planting cotton or pepper plantations!"

Yang Fuhe looked more stable, took out a map of Luzon, clearly presented the situation of Luzon Island in front of everyone, and pointed to a few circles marked on the map and said seriously.

Although Guangdong is not far from Luzon, Luzon has not formed a strong consumer market at all, and the economy and culture are very backward, and there are no good things to trade with Guangdong, so many people do not have a deep impression of Luzon.

Nowadays, it is unexpectedly heard that the soil of Luzon is fertile and suitable for growing crops on a large scale.

"If the land of Luzon is so fertile, why are they still so poor, and even come to our Daming to buy grain?" Zhang Qinghe asked puzzled.

Yang Fuhe said: "We were very surprised at first! But after understanding, it was discovered that they all existed in the form of tribes, and were not even controlled by the king of Luzon, and lived on safaris! ”

"Not bad! When we got there, we realized that there were no big cities in Luzon at all, and their country was desolate everywhere! Shen Jun also nodded, emphasizing this point.

After Shen Liuye and the others heard the report of Shen Jun and the others, they had a clearer understanding of Luzon. couldn't help but secretly glance at Lin Haoran, and found that this was really a god, and he knew that Luzon was suitable for planting cotton on a large scale without leaving home.

If the situation in Luzon is really as Shen Jun and others say, then it is indeed worth pushing forward with this big plan to build a cotton and pepper base in the northern part of Luzon Island to deliver raw materials for the joint workshop and Yipin sauce.

"Have you ever thought about it! In Luzon, we have to build a wharf, build a defensive city, build water conservancy to plant cotton and peppers, and protect our base. Zhao Fugui said with concern.

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but turn their heads to look at Mr. Iron Ram, the general ledger of the United Business Group.

The Iron Ram had already carried out budget statistics according to Lin Haoran's requirements, and after receiving Lin Haoran's nod and approval, he said bitterly to everyone: "After the preliminary budget, this project needs to invest about 400,000 silver!" ”

400,000 taels?

Hearing this astronomical figure, everyone present gasped unwillingly, which undoubtedly greatly exceeded their budget. If it had been a year ago, many of them would have stood up and left immediately.

Even if it was Shen Jun, who was full of energy, when he heard this investment amount, he secretly swallowed and foamed.
