Wen Yan comforted, and rewarded several past tomb robbers led by Qi Yu on the spot, not only rewarding the house with money but also rewarding a small official with nine grades, which suddenly made the tomb robber Qi Yu and others who had been embarrassed all their lives grateful. In particular, Qin Feng personally promised to take Qi Yu's family in Qi Country over, which immediately made this little old man die.
Compared with Jin Jingnan's fluttering promise, the emperor in front of him, His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Chrysostom Yuyan, naturally said it, and it will definitely be done, Qi Yu has no doubt about this.
His identity has also changed from a criminal to an official of the Ming Dynasty in an instant, and this feeling is really unbelievable.
Of course, the reward is still limited to Qi Yu and some other leaders, but this gives other tomb robbers great hope, since Qi Yu can have such a result, then they will naturally have such an opportunity in the future.
Qin Feng left, but the motivation of these guys who stayed behind was instantly pulled to the highest, and before His Majesty left, this beam was completely opened up, so as to please His Majesty the Emperor, and it became the common mind of the big guys.
"These people, in my eyes, are all technicians and masters who will open mountains and holes in the future." Qin Feng said to Jin Jingnan: "They should be given certain rights appropriately, for example, every once in a while, give all the rights of the people of the Ming Dynasty to those who are active and have made meritorious contributions, so as to increase their enthusiasm." And they can't always be treated as single-use. β
"Yes, Your Majesty is far-sighted, and the ministers are far behind." Jin Jingnan Liandao.
"Not to mention self-humility, you can think of these things, you are already smarter than me." Qin Feng smiled: "It's really remarkable that you started planning these things a year ago, when I first came up with the concept of rail cars. β
"Panic!" Jin Jingnan's panic was not polite, but indeed a little flustered.
"The minister doesn't have to be inferior to the king, and the king doesn't have to be stronger than the minister." Qin Feng said disapprerovitically: "There is a specialization in the art industry, the status is different, and the things to consider are different, you don't have to think that I will be jealous of you, with a capable courtier like you, I will only be happy." β
Qin Feng had already said that he was very naked, but Jin Jingnan could only lower his head and even claim that it was.
Along the winding mountain gallop road to Taiping City, as soon as he entered the city, Qin Feng felt the hot wind blowing in his face.
Taiping City is no longer what it was when he left here.
All the people have moved out of Taiping City, and now Taiping City, in addition to all kinds of official offices, there is only one thing left, that is, factories related to military industry.
The entire Taiping City is now home to tens of thousands of people, all of whom belong to the craftsmen, technicians, apprentices and their families of various military workshops in the Ming Kingdom.
"Your Majesty, you and your mother's original letter house in Taiping City is still kept, and now it has been cleaned up, so please go over and rest for the night, and then look at things tomorrow!" Jin Jingnan Dao, I have been busy all day today, and I am a little tired when I think about coming to Your Majesty.
"Oh, the house is still there?" Qin Feng smiled: "Jin Jingnan, you don't want to make money with them, right?" β
"What about that?" Kim Kyung-nam laughed embarrassedly.
"Now there are so many people gathered in Taiping City, I'm afraid that the houses are very nervous, I remember when I first designed this city, the scale of the entire city was about 50,000 people, right?" Qin Feng asked.
"Yes, Your Majesty, in the past two years, all kinds of military workshops have been continuously expanding in scale, but they still can't meet the needs of the army, and now there are more than 55,000 people in the entire Taiping City, including more than 40,000 craftsmen, and more than 10,000 people with their families." Kim Kyung-nam introduced.
"The house, make use of it." Qin Feng smiled and waved his hand, "I'm afraid that I won't have the opportunity to live here for a few days in the future, besides, now that Taiping City is full of smoke, and the ping-pong rings all day long, it's not a good place to live." β
"This is a place used by His Majesty, how can you live in it for others? Even if the minister dares to divide them, no one dares to live there? Kim Kyung-nam was embarrassed.
"Then dismantle him." Qin Feng said: "Demolish this house and rebuild it on the same ground, I remember that the house covers the largest area, if you demolish him and build a house for ordinary apprentices to live in, at least a few hundred people can live." β
"Yes, Your Majesty. Just do it when you turn around! "Jin Jingnan is not ambiguous, since the emperor has opened his mouth, then he can naturally handle it accordingly, anyway, now Taiping City is overcrowded." So where does Your Majesty live today? β
"Go and live in your house." Qin Feng looked back at his entourage: "Your mansion, it's not like even a few of me can't live there, right?" β
Listening to Qin Feng's joking words, Jin Jingnan couldn't help laughing. There were not many attachΓ©s who came to Taiping City with Qin Feng, and most of the guards of the Agni Death Camp stayed in Fengxian County and did not come in with the emperor.
In the dead of night, Qin Feng hadn't slept yet, but stood by the window, looking at the still brightly lit Taiping City, full of emotion.
"Kitten, when we first arrived here, did we ever think that we would be in this situation?" Qin Feng pointed to the city that was still very lively outside, and said with emotion.
The workshops in Taiping City, day and night, are rushing to work. Orders from the military are endless, and recently, the Commerce Bureau has placed a large number of special orders, which are all products ready to be sold to the Chu State. In order to meet the deadlines, each workshop adjusted its production process, dividing all the craftsmen and apprentices into three shifts, and the workshops worked day and night to produce all kinds of weapons.
"Your Majesty, it's not that I haven't thought about it, it's just that I haven't thought about it so quickly." The kitten smiled: "To this day, it still feels like a dream." β
"yes, no one thought it would be so fast! We have only been in Vietnam for six years! Qin Feng muttered, "This is thanks to Cheng Wuben." If it weren't for the strategic plan he formulated for me, I'm afraid that until now, I would still be entangled with Wu Jian and them! β
"This person is indeed a little amazing." The kitten nodded, "It's a pity that I met a stubborn master, but I blinded his talent." If he had accepted His Majesty's invitation to stay in Daming as an official, it would have been excellent for us and for him. β
"Character determines destiny." Qin Feng sighed slightly: "Sometimes I think about it, such a figure who has helped us Daming a lot, but now we are trying to bring it to a dead end step by step, I feel a little sorry." β
"There's no way around it. In fact, even if we don't do this, Min Ruoying will not keep him. Cheng Wu originally wanted to build the Jinghu defense line, and it was necessary to gather the strength of the whole country to make it possible, especially after the eastern border army was completely destroyed. I'm worried now that after Min Ruoying goes back, she will inevitably try to curb and weaken Cheng Wuben's power, so that the Jinghu front will eventually become a four-way front, full of loopholes, and it won't be beautiful. β
"You're wrong, that's what we want." Qin Feng sneered: "Min Ruoying will inevitably do this, as long as Cheng Wuben's Jinghu front begins to take shape, Min Ruoying will definitely attack him and replace him with his own people." The Jinghu front, which has not been completely built, will be attacked by the Qi people without stopping, torn apart little by little, and finally collapsed. All we need is time, and if the Jinghu front can buy us four or five years, it will be enough. β
"Yes, Your Majesty."
"Within three years, the problem of the Qin State will be completely solved. Then it took two years to turn around, and jointly seize the Chu State with the Qi State, and finally, it was time for the Ming and Qi to compete for the co-lord of the world. Qin Feng's eyes lit up.
"At this stage, we naturally want to help the weak and suppress the strong, and the greater the casualties caused by the Chu State to the Qi people, the more beneficial it will be for us." The kitten smiled sheepishly, "Yang Zhi has been running around the Chu Realm for a while, and it is not an exaggeration to describe the current Chu State with people's hearts fluctuating. And because of the relationship between Princess Zhaohua, some high-ranking officials and dignitaries of the Chu State or local gentry have much less psychological obstacles to defecting to us than defecting to the Qi State. β
"You're absolutely right. Yang Zhi's results are very good. Now we have confirmed that it is Zeng Lin of Jinghu County, who has made a clear statement, while Wu Teng of Xinning is still holding the pipa and half-covering his face, but with the development of the form, I believe that he will eventually become a member of our Daming. β
"Zeng Lin is okay, Jinghu is the area we focus on, but Wu Tengke is different, his Xinning County is still very good, the soldiers of Xinning County have been fighting for the past year, and the soldiers can be regarded as sharpened, which is really a good help." The kitten said happily.
"The Thunderbolt Battalion has completely withdrawn from Lingchuan County, and Wu Teng is under a lot of pressure to defend Lingchuan, and is now trying his best to buy all kinds of weapons from us." Qin Feng said: "I have already agreed, and I will sell him my Daming weapons at a low price, which can be regarded as I have armed them in advance." β
When the kitten heard this, he couldn't help but laugh. "Lingchuan must help Wu Teng defend it, and when we start with Qi Guo in the future, he will be a sharp knife."
"In the past few years, Geng Qiancheng of Izumo County has also done a lot of work on Xinning, and all kinds of commercial infiltration have been done to the extreme, kitten, do you know? Changlong Bank has spread branches all over Xinning. Taiping Bank is state-owned, which is somewhat eye-catching, but Changlong is privately owned. Now Xinning County is basically using our Ming currency. "Qin Feng said proudly." Subtly, the people of Xinning County have a stronger sense of identity with us. β
"They have always been on the border of the Chu State, and they are not valued by the imperial court, and the centripetal force on the Chu State is not as strong as the Jiangnan region of the Chu State, so it is naturally easier to divide them." The kitten said, "These works will play a huge role in our annexation of Xinning in the future." β
"Exactly!"
