"Spread my will, let Xu Guangqi of the Ministry of Science take the lead, and the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Households, and the Ministry of War will coordinate to go to the mouth of the Yangtze River, build a wharf and shipyard for me, and Ma He will also go with me, in addition, transfer craftsmen who know how to make ships from China, and transfer all those who can be transferred, and I will give you five years to build a large ship that can sail thousands of miles."

Ma He is still a hairy young man, and he can't be entrusted with important tasks, so Guo Zongxun asked him to follow Xu Guangqi first.

Xu Guangqi has a strong ability to learn and accept foreign things, exploring the sea, exploring whether there is land at the end of the sea, and what new things can be learned and learned, so it is very suitable for Xu Guangqi to be responsible.

As for the department, it is temporarily handed over to Song Yingxing to manage, the department is an important department of the Great Zhou, independent of the three provinces of Zhongshu Province, Menxia Province, and Shangshu Province, and is under the direct management of Guo Zongxun.

Li Chongjin had already stationed troops at the mouth of the Yangtze River, and had also recruited a large number of people to begin the construction of Greater Shanghai.

Li Chongjin, who was calculated by Guo Zongxun and Liu Bowen, really did not start construction in Jiangbei, but crossed the river and chose Jiangnan.

This is actually in Guo Zongxun's arms.

"If Li Chongjin starts construction in Huainan and northern Jiangsu, I am really a little worried, but this person's heart is always greedy and insufficient, Li Chongjin, since you happily jumped into the pit I dug for you, it is not so easy to come up."

Following Dugusheng, Guo Zongxun sent Xu Guangqi over again this time, and informed Li Chongjin in advance, that it would not conflict with his task of building Greater Shanghai, and would definitely not interfere with all his measures to build Greater Shanghai, Xu Guangqi would take people to build docks, ports and shipyards.

Of course, Li Chongjin will not object, and his little abacus is also a thief.

"The little emperor took the initiative to send me a port and a shipyard, hehe, when you build it, these places are mine."

Li Chongjin continued to dream, Dugu Sheng ran at both ends, and his main tasks were two, one was to fool Li Chongjin, and the other was to exterminate the water bandits along the Yangtze River.

Liu Bowen and Yang Ye are in Jinling, and they have been looking for Zhao Pu's whereabouts, but they have been unable to open the situation for a long time.

On Yanyun's side, the abduction of children under the guise of cultivating immortals became more and more intense, and even Cao Bin, the town guard of Youzhou, repeatedly wrote to him, requesting that he be cleared as soon as possible.

"Tell Cao Bin, let him calm down, if he can't bear it, he will make a big plan, it's just the gains and losses of one city and one place, what I want is to dig up the mastermind behind the scenes."

Guo Zongxun's true thoughts, I'm afraid only Liu Bowen can guess, and he is not sure, if it is really what he guessed, then ......

"Your Majesty does things, often take one step and be able to see a few good moves, just like a skilled chess player, every move of the opponent is counted to death, General Yang, the children they abducted over there over there really began to be transported to Jiangnan in batches, pity those parents who are ruthless to send their children out, they are still dreaming of cultivating immortals, do you say this is pitiful or hateful?"

Yang Ye has been refreshed these days, and after Liu Bowen arrived, he demonstrated to him an iron-fisted action to rectify the wealthy businessmen in Jiangnan.

Anyone who violates the laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty will not be consulted with the wealthy businessmen and families of Jiangnan at all, and the confiscation should be handed over to the imperial court within a time limit, and it will be free of charge.

You want to find someone to reason, okay, Jinling City Prison and Jinyiwei Prison, you pick one, and after you go in, someone will accompany you to reason.

Under several tough suppressions, the wealthy businessmen in Jiangnan finally knew that this day had completely changed.

In the past, they used business to get involved in politics, seized power with politics, and set up the trick of the Southern Tang Dynasty, which did not work at all in the Great Zhou Emperor.

The merchants began to flee south, and if they wanted to get out of Jinling City alive, they had to hand over half of their family property, Liu Bowen told Yang Ye:

"Don't think we're too dark, I don't believe we can bet that if these businessmen really want to leave, they will definitely hand over half of their family property happily, and they don't dare to play any cats."

Let these businessmen honestly obey the decrees of the imperial court, they don't have this habit, the previous Southern Tang Dynasty court was weak and bullied, and now, retribution is coming.

No matter how rich you are, no matter whether you can reach the sky with your hands and eyes in Jiangnan, if you don't obey the laws of the Great Zhou, you will be bankrupt and ruined in an instant.

More than half of the top wealthy businessmen who were arrested in the first batch were raided, and it was not too easy to find out whether these people had broken the law and committed crimes.

These are all the problems that the Southern Tang Dynasty court gave to these rich businessmen, and here in the Great Zhou, if it is a problem, it must be cured, and it should be confiscated and exiled, which is unceremonious.

It is said that Jinling City has made such a big move, and the prices in the market should fluctuate greatly, and these merchants have previously relied on controlling the market and disrupting the market to force the Southern Tang Dynasty to make concessions.

The Great Zhou court did not give them the opportunity to raise prices at all, and the Hundred Battles Heroes Hall was fully stationed in Jiangnan, directly monopolizing almost all commercial transactions.

Of course, the local businessmen in Jiangnan are not without a chance at all, and the killing rod has been enough, and the sweet dates are followed and delivered immediately.

Jinling businessmen Zhang Yaozu, Xue Lin, and Gao Guirong, because they actively cooperated with the Great Zhou Dynasty to rectify the Jiangnan business, after the Great Zhou Dynasty heard about it, Longyan Dayue specially issued a decree to entitle the three as Jiangnan imperial merchants, and they were included in the Hundred Battles Heroes Hall and became the new Jiangnan business leaders.

As the saying goes, there are three caves of cunning rabbits, not to mention these rich businessmen who have monopolized the business community in Jiangnan for many years, and they have commercial tentacles in the farther south and even in Xishu.

The wealthy merchants who could afford to toss and did not want to live under the strict laws of the Great Zhou handed over half of their family property, and could still drive hundreds of carts out of Jinling and go farther south to seek a paradise.

There are still many businessmen who can't afford to toss, what should they do?

Isn't there already an example of Zhang Yaozu, Xue Lin and Gao Guirong, who are now the upstarts of Jinling City, but how did they actively cooperate with the imperial court to rectify Jiangnan commerce to win the reward of the Great Zhou Tianzi?

Zhang Yaozu, Xue Lin and Gao Guirong taught by example and told these businessmen who wanted to stay in Jinling in detail.

"You don't have any children in your family to join the army, that's a pity, the three of us are lucky, we have all had the experience of serving in the army, and we have accumulated a lot of military exploits, although it is not the military exploits of the Great Zhou army, but His Majesty the Emperor has recognized our military merits."

"If you want to join the Hundred Battles Heroes Hall and obtain the protection of the imperial court, there is only one way to go, so that the children of your family can quickly join the army, go to the battlefield to fight bravely to kill the enemy, accumulate military merits, and enter the Hundred Battles Heroes Hall after retiring."

"We can help you intercede with the Yang Zhen Guard, and your family's business will be temporarily entrusted to the Hundred Battles Heroes Hall, and when your family's children return with honor, these businesses will be handed over to them to manage."

"Listen to every word we say clearly, only those who are in the army are eligible to enter the Hall of Heroes of the Hundred Battles and become a small shopkeeper, those who do not join the army, those who have not accumulated enough military merits after joining the army, I'm sorry, no one has this opportunity......"
