Chapter 220: A New Chamber of Commerce
Bilai doesn't keep idlers, so everyone works hard. Even officials don't dare to be lazy. Now that Bilai Country is sparsely populated, Wu Zhizai can know anything at the first time.
His Majesty has a good heart, but for those who do not obey orders, His Majesty will definitely not let it go easily. It's something they all know, so they don't dare to be lazy.
Whether it is the original pirate group or the Shark Spirit royal family in the country, they are very polite to each other. This kind of politeness is politeness on the surface, and it is trembling politeness. Even if there was any collision, they would quickly apologize to each other.
Wu Zhizai knows this situation. He was afraid that things would be reversed, and that their repression would explode one day.
The Lan Clan's Shark Spirit royal family has a grudge against the original pirates, and the relationship is very delicate. That's why they are so trembling and polite.
However, after the arrival of the Huang Clan's Shark Spirit Imperial Family, they got along very well with both the original pirates and the Lan Clan's Shark Spirit Imperial Family. They are like a lubricant for the gears, easing the tension between the two sides.
The environment in which the Shark Spirit Imperial Family lived in the past was very cruel, and in this environment, all the men of the Shark Spirit Royal Family were warriors.
The former pirates also often fought at sea, and it was not difficult to build a strong army among this group.
After the army was formed, Wu Zhizai, the 300 soldiers of Sky Island, sent two ships to send them back.
When autumn came, another boatload of people came, and the number of people was not large, only a few dozen.
The environment educates people, Wu Zhizai has understood this truth since a long time ago. In the Qiyang Dynasty, everyone thought that it was normal for people to divide between high and low, so they took it for granted.
Here, people feel the joy of equality and feel that life should be like this.
The main palace in the center of the island has been built, and Wu Zhizai feels that he should live in it. As for the part that has not yet been built, it will be slowly built when the time comes.
Standing on the roof, Wu Zhizai looked out into the lively distance. sighed, "Cheng Ting, the population will become more and more, I'm afraid I won't be able to govern this country well." "
"You founded the country at the age of thirteen, and now you are fourteen years old, and it is already remarkable that you can build a country like this. "
Hao Jichen is the son of a powerful person, if he is still in the Qiyang Dynasty, his father will let him go to the army to train. With Hao Jichen's strength and unconvincing character, Hao Yu will definitely let him be an officer. At that time, there will be more than 20,000 people in charge.
Cheng Ting thought to himself, if he were to be himself, would he be able to build a country?
Cheng Ting shook his head, if it was his former self, he would definitely be very proud that he could do it. But he doesn't think like this now, he doesn't have a broad mind like Hao Jichen, and he can't give the people here a stable country.
He thought to himself that the land here was vast and fertile, that everyone had a job to do, that women could work to earn money, and that there was the help of an ally who was empty. It is not difficult to manage 20,000 people.
The difficulty lies in having loyal subordinates and allies, and in gaining the love of the people.
Cheng Ting knew that he was not as good as Hao Jichen and could not do it. He remembered the method that Hao Jichen had told him how to tame the Celestial Dragon cub.
At that time, in the forest of Wansen, he let the dragon cub go. However, the Tianlong cub was immediately pursued, and could only run back to Hao Jichen's side and seek protection from Hao Jichen.
At that time, Hao Jichen said that it was luck to be able to tame Bai Youling.
It is not a kind of luck to be able to establish the country of Bilai.
It is vast and fertile, and the number of people in the country of Bilai was sparse at the beginning of the country. Moreover, he is the first person in the world to provide shelter for the Shark Spirit Royal Family, and the Shark Spirit Royal Family is absolutely loyal and obedient to him.
Such a country is indeed much easier to establish.
Cheng Ting shook his head and smiled bitterly, Hao Jichen, this kid, is really lucky.
"What are you laughing at?" Wu Zhizai asked with a smile.
"I'm smiling bitterly, wryly smiling at why you're so lucky. "
Wu Zhizai knew what he was talking about, and he also felt that he was lucky to be able to establish the Bilai Kingdom.
Wu Zhizai laughed, "I heard that kind people don't have too bad luck." Cheng Ting, it's true, if you stay kind, your luck will be good. "
Cheng Ting glanced at him and did not speak.
One day in October, three merchant ships came over. Conforming Kang didn't know who the other party was or where he came from. He hurriedly asked Su Xiaowen to come over to be on guard, and he, Lan Ke, Huang Sihai and Su Xiaowen greeted the merchant ships that were about to dock.
The people on the boat saw that there were troops on the dock on guard, and their hearts beat very fast. Before he came here, he had done some knowledge of the country beforehand. Knowing that as long as he doesn't do anything to hurt the country, he won't have anything in the country.
As soon as the ship docked, the captain walked over with a smile, "Look at the two heroic postures, presumably the two are Prime Minister Shun and General Su, right? This time, I came here to trade with your country. Who are these two?"
Conform to Kang knows Qingyun Island, Qingyun Island is an island of forests, the island is full of branches and leaves, and towering trees abound. From a distance, it looks like a blue cloud.
Shun Kang smiled and introduced: "This is Lan Ke, the patriarch of the Lan Clan's Shark Ling Imperial Family, who serves as a squire in my Bilai Country. This is called Huang Sihai, the patriarch of the Huang Clan's Shark Ling Imperial Family, and he is the head of the household department. "
It is rumored that the Shark Ling Royal Family has a handsome face regardless of whether it is male or female, and when Sun Wu saw it, he had already guessed that the two of them were the Shark Spirit Royal Family, but he didn't know who was who.
"Sun has seen Lord Lan and Lord Huang. The Shark Ling royal family has a handsome face, and it has been built today, and it is so. "
Lan Ke and Huang Sihai replied very politely, and during the whole process of receiving Sun Wu, Lan Ke and Huang Sihai did a very good job.
Cheng Ting believes that these people who come to trade are just businessmen below, not envoys from other countries. How could the emperor personally go to greet the merchants? Isn't it a joke to let the world know?
Wu Zhizai also thinks that it should be so, in the eyes of the world, businessmen are the most lowly in their pursuit of profit. And he also saw it in the book, Shinong Industry and Commerce. Merchants came last, and although the merchants were rich, they were fine on these islands. If it was in the imperial dynasty, the world looked down on merchants.
During the whole process, Wu Zhizai ignored Sun Wu. It wasn't until Sun Wu said that he wanted to see the monarch of Bilai that Wu Zhizai received him.
After all, Bilai is a small country, and it is a good thing to have one friend.
Wu Zhizai put on a custom-made costume and met Sun Wu and others at Bilai Palace.
Sun Wu came over this time, and what he wanted to see most was this world-famous fourteen-year-old emperor.
The first time they met, he felt that the little emperor felt very gentle. There is no such delicate and domineering as the sons of the powerful, and there is no majesty and domineering like the emperor.
But Sun Wu understood that this little emperor was very powerful, and he came here all the way from the Qiyang Dynasty without a single defeat.
Sun Wu hopes to open a shop here, and will continue to pull goods to sell in the future.
For this, Wu Zhizai welcomes it.
Sun Wu brought many valuable gifts, and Wu Zhizai also gave a return gift, which was a pearl and an ore from the Shark Ling royal family.
Sun Wu was overjoyed when he saw these two gifts. This was a signal that His Majesty had allowed him to purchase ores and pearls from the Kingdom of Bilai.
But not now, when he first arrived, many goods were given to the people of Bilai in the form of gifts, and the money was not much.
But the coming days are long, this kind of thing, don't worry.
Half a month later, Sun Wu left Bilai Kingdom.
Since returning safely from the last trip to Sky Island, Wu Zhizai sent another boat to the sea to other islands.
On other islands, people are divided into high and low, and the powerful oppress the poor people. Wu Zhizai sent them out, in addition to purchasing supplies, but also wanted them to inform the poor people on other islands. In the country of Bilai, you can get a new life.
Since it was not Sky Island this time, Wu Zhizai sent Su Xiaowen and Lan Ke out together this time to comply with Kang and stay.
Moreover, there were only twenty people on board, and among these twenty people, all of them were mermaids, and if there was danger, they were few in number, and they could escape by the sea.
The distance that Wu Zhizai let them go to sea, the distance from Bilai Kingdom, the journey is between one month and one and a half months, and the farthest cannot exceed two months.
In the third month after they went out, it was a cold winter, and the weather was cold, and the days were short and the nights were long.
What Wu Zhizai was waiting for was not a triumphant return ship, but a pirate ship that the group had snatched from somewhere. Twenty people went out, and only eight people came back. They were all withered, ragged, and they hadn't eaten for a long time.
Not only that, but eight people were scarred, and some of them were aggravated by the lack of timely treatment.
