908 is on track

In the aftermath, large landslides and avalanches occurred in these valleys, which are said to have been caused by ground movements. Whether it is the ground moving or the man-made blasting, who can say clearly, what can be said is that all the traces of the camp are buried under the rocks dozens of meters deep.

The Baekje royal family and Japanese mercenaries involved in this event will not have the opportunity to return home anytime soon, and will all be sent to the central part of the peninsula for basic military training. The Japanese mercenaries were also promised that if they performed well and were admitted to the Navy or Marine Corps, they could move to Haidong Province with their families, and they would not have to go back to Japan to starve, and they could eat whale meat as much as they wanted!

Wang Hao's family, who were able to survive, thought that the supporters had gone north from different routes, and with a passion for recovering the country and the excitement of escaping death, they bid farewell to the navy responsible for protection, were sent out of Jingzhou as a gift, and set foot on the land of Jinguo.

As for their fate, Jiang Erlang and Xiao Wuna have a lot of things to do, and the people of Goryeo are also waiting for the establishment of the new kingdom in anxiety, who has the heart to think about a group of exiles. Most of those who have thoughts are buried in the Dafeng Mountains, and those who are lucky enough to survive have to hold their tails and be people, and they dare not talk in their dreams when they sleep at night.

From the dispatch of troops to the founding of the country, the birth of a new regime and the demise of an old regime, it was only six months. During this time, all the countries on the left were silent and silent, as if they had not seen or heard. But this is all a superficial phenomenon, behind the scenes, the Great Song Dynasty and the Jin Kingdom are very busy.

The Great Song Dynasty was busy signing various treaties of mutual exchange, trade, and security with Haidong, while the Great Song Dynasty maritime merchants were busy exploring routes to various ports in Haidong, finding suitable places and quickly establishing warehouses and warehouses.

In the past, except for some furs and medicinal herbs, there were really no bulk goods in the Goryeo Kingdom. The buyers are the royal families and nobles near Kaijing, and the demand is also not very large, so it is not possible to go or not.

But now Haidong is different, there is a shortage of grain, seeds, farm tools, fertilizer, cloth and peat, the new king has sent envoys to the various ports of the Great Song Dynasty to attract investment, posted notices to openly recruit powerful merchants to do business in Haidong, if they are willing to operate for a long time, they can also enjoy tax exemptions.

This alone made many merchants of the Great Song Dynasty blush, not only maritime merchants, but also inland. It is true that maritime merchants have ships, but they lack a long-term and stable source of bulk commodities, so they have to join forces with inland merchants. One tube buys, one tube transports and sells, and they hit it off, and they are busy heading towards the other side of the sea.

Even the shipbuilding industry with Fujian and Liangzhejiang Road is also thriving, orders are scheduled to go to the next year, the cost of ships is also rising, just suitable for shipbuilding wood, three months doubled.

At this time, another big ship from Haidong Kingdom came, and it was all pulled with large timber. As soon as they landed, before the people from the city department left, the merchants who came to purchase timber lined up, and there were a few boats.

The nimble merchant simply followed the sea ships of Haidong Kingdom back, bought those good wood transported from Liaodong locally, resold it and sold it back to the Great Song Dynasty, and became a transnational second-class dealer.

But there is a kind of trade that neither the merchants of the Great Song Dynasty nor the merchants of Haidong can interfere with, and there are two fleets that travel between Kaijing and Youzhou Haihe Port, and they are all hung with the whale flag of the king of Haidong.

When I went, I was empty, and when I returned to Kaijing, I was fully loaded, and I didn't enter the port in the middle of the night, so I circled around the sea, and the merchant fleets that passed by wanted to get closer and have a look, but they were all driven away by the warships of Haidongguo.

What does Youzhou produce? Not to mention that ordinary merchants of the Great Song Dynasty can't think of it, even Wang Hao, who has been to Youzhou, has a lawsuit. It is true that there is coal and iron in that place, but the imperial court has explicitly ordered that private mining and forging are not allowed. A lot of cotton is grown, but the winter is not the harvest season.

It is said that their Wang family is a perennial partner who has a deep friendship with the regent and Jiang Erlang, and they have been wearing a pair of crotch pants for so many years, and such a confidential matter as transporting poison is also the first appearance of the Wang family's fleet, but this deal has not been touched.

After a long time, there must be some ideas within the family, and then there should be children and nephews who come to Wang Hao and encourage the old man to go to the regent's palace to walk around, or simply go to the king of Haidong. Let's not make a big head, let's drink some soup assembly into individual stocks.

"Don't ask around, if you know something, you won't live long!" But Wang Hao's reaction was extremely resolute, as long as someone came to mention this matter, he would immediately scold it, without exception.

"Uncle, don't look at me, although the little nephew is a high-ranking official in Southern Fujian Province, the matter in Youzhou is really unclear, and the prime minister will not inform me."

The reason why the Wang family became one of the top maritime merchants in Fujian in less than ten years, with fleets all over Japan, Haidong and Nanyang, in addition to being close to the regent and having shares in the Wenjia shipyard, another important reason is that there is green smoke on the ancestral tomb of the Wang family, and a feudal official, Wang Xiong, has come out.

Since the beginning of the previous year, Fujian Road has become a special zone, and the following provinces have followed, dividing Fujian Road into two provinces, north and south. The northern province was appointed as a high-ranking official by the then dynasty Zai Fu Zhangdun, and the southern province was handed over to Wang Xiong by the Promotion Society.

It's not that his ability is outstanding, but that the times make heroes. The first article of the new bureaucratic reform is local governance, and officials below the provincial level no longer need to be officials in other places, but are encouraged to serve locally.

Wang Xiong is a native of Zhangzhou, and there are really not many Fujian people in the promotion society, and their third brother is also the veteran of the second phase of the Children's League, and he has family support, even if he does not have much governing experience, he is the best candidate.

In fact, sending a dog to be this high-ranking official is not much different from Wang Xiong, not that Wang Xiong is stupid, nor that his ability is too poor, but that the foundation of the promotion society in Fujian is too deep.

At that time, Wang Er made cooperatives, plantations, sugar factories, and newspapers in Fuzhou, and even affected Quanzhou and Zhangzhou. In addition to her own ability, she has also cultivated a large number of grassroots backbones.

Now that Fuzhou has returned to Zhangdun's northern Fujian Province, Wang Er naturally will not make trouble for him. After a secret order, most of the team that had been in Fuzhou moved to southern Fujian Province and became Wang Xiong's provincial government officials.

There is no need to change the prescription, and if you try it again, Wang Xiong's rule will be as rapid as Fuzhou back then, and the resistance will be smaller. Wang Xiong even received a secret order from the Promotion Society, and he must compare Northern Fujian Province with the Zhang family, court officials, the emperor and the people of the whole country to see whether the sage's education can make people fed and clothed, or whether the new policy has a great effect.

Facts have proved that even if Wang Er left a large area of mature industries to Zhang Dian in Fuzhou and occupied Jianzhou, the largest grain-producing area on Fujian Road, Zhang Dian still could not compare with these young people who were not yet established in terms of their ability to govern the local area.

It cannot be said that Zhang Dan's ability is insufficient, and he is not facing a few people, but the entire promotion society, or a huge system that has developed for more than 10 years and involves military, agriculture, education, scientific research, transportation, logistics, finance, and agriculture.

Even if the promotion society does not tilt resources, manpower and material resources to Wang Xiong's southern Fujian Province, relying on a few routines and a large number of grassroots workers that have been explored over the years, the Zhang Dian brothers still have no chance of winning.

Take Fuzhou Port and Quanzhou Port as an example, when there is no province, although Quanzhou Port is more famous, there are more fleets to and from Nanyang, but Fuzhou Port also has the convenience of sugar mills and paper mills, these are all in-demand commodities, which greatly drive the prosperity of local commerce, and the annual cargo throughput between the two places is about the same.

However, just a year after the province was divided, the output of the Fuzhou sugar factory fell by one-third, and the trend is still going down. However, the amount of sugarcane shipped out of Fuzhou port has surged, more than five times that of previous years.

At first, the governor of Fuzhou, who accepted his fate, did not care, he felt that the foreign merchants who came to buy sugarcane also had to stop at Fuzhou Port, and they also had to spend their money here, as long as they got the tax in hand, regardless of whether they were buying sugar or sugarcane.

But at the end of the year, as soon as it is settled, don't look at the people coming and going on weekdays, but the tax not only did not increase, but also decreased a lot. This thing can't be concealed if you want to, so you can only report it to Zhang. When Zhang Dian heard this, what, the tax has been reduced, this is not asking for his own life, so he hurriedly went to Fuzhou to investigate in person, for fear that the officials below would report the accounts.
