The second floor of Zhu's Restaurant.

Almost all of Zhao Huan's forces in Tokyo have arrived here.

Of course, they are all boss-level characters.

Zhao Huan thought about it and decided to tell the truth.

"Today in the court, although I got the errand of purging the traitorous party as I wished, the official family was still influenced by the traitorous party, and wanted to dismantle the Liangshan army and let me reselect people from the forbidden army and the box army."

"I don't want any changes in the matter of purging the traitorous party, so I didn't dare to refuse in the court."

But that doesn't mean I'm going to accept it! The army has already marched north, and it is impossible to change troops on the spot. I plan to drag it out until Tian Hu is pacified, and then the Liangshan army has military merits, and the situation will be much better! ”

"At the same time, since the official family has agreed to let me choose the forbidden army and the box army, then we might as well first select the ones who can fight in the forbidden army and the box army, it doesn't matter how many people there are, as long as the combat effectiveness is strong enough after forming an army alone!"

When Zhao Huan said this, everyone understood.

The meaning is nothing more than left hand and right hand, and the key to achieving this goal is the time difference.

It always takes time for the Liangshan army to withdraw from the battlefield, and if they can use this time to destroy Tian Hu, or make a breakthrough, it will be enough to prove their loyalty and strength.

Even if Zhao Huan is willing, he can delay it for a longer time, after all, the reason why Zhao Ji wants to break up the Liangshan army still looks down on them in his bones.

Contempt can easily lead to contempt, contempt can easily lead to neglect, and the conditions for procrastination are naturally met.

I have to say that in addition to directly confronting Zhao Ji and letting Zhao Ji take back the edict, this is a better solution.

After Wu Yong and the others listened, most of their hearts were put down.

Zhao Huan turned his head to look at Yang Yizhong:

"I'll leave it to you to choose the forbidden army and the box army, after all, you are more familiar with Tokyo and the forbidden army in Tokyo! After you have singled them out, you will be under your command and you will form an army on your own, either to defend Tokyo or to go south to suppress the bandits, depending on the situation. ”

Yang Yi and others were overjoyed and hurriedly thanked him.

It's a big errand!

Leading an army alone not only has a bright future, but also represents Zhao Huan's trust in them.

You must know that it is very rare that they and Zhao Huan can gain such a lot of trust after only one lunch just now!

Zhao Huan confessed again:

"You're going to start choosing people today. I will meet with the people of Tokyo in three days at Donghuamen, and a large number of people will be needed to maintain law and order, and you will be in charge! ”

"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, rest assured, what is the situation of the forbidden army in Tokyo, which army is the best, which army has the most masters, who is whose henchman, who is loyal and who is greedy for life and afraid of death...... Not to mention that I know everything clearly, and it is all very similar, and I will definitely be able to select a capable division for His Highness! ”

Yang Yizhong was full of confidence, and immediately entrusted the seven wounded ones to Zhu Fu, and rushed to the forbidden army camps with the remaining ten people and Zhao Huan's military orders.

The garrison of the forbidden army is not only in one place, but scattered around the city of Tokyo, and if they want to select the elite among hundreds of thousands of people, Yang Yizhong has been busy in the past three days, so they must race against time.

As soon as Yang Yi left, the original people were left upstairs.

Zhao Huan said to Wu Yong: "Your bookstore, I saw it on the way when I came, it is not very conspicuous, presumably you didn't treat it as a business, just as a cover!" ”

"But I think you can do more!"

"I'm about to clean up Liang Shicheng, Yang Jian and others, they don't have much at home, except for gold and silver treasures! With so much gold and silver treasures, instead of handing them over to the imperial court for those corrupt officials to do wrongdoing, it is better for us to cut off the beard and do something more meaningful. ”

Wu Yong didn't understand a little, and hugged his fists and said, "Please instruct Your Highness, what should we do?" ”

"I want you to make greater use of these riches and rob the business of the big families and wealthy businessmen!"

Zhao Huan pointed out the window.

Wu Yong was a little embarrassed to hear, "But we are not good at business......"

"You can hire some businessmen! Powerful, rich and powerful, but afraid that you won't be able to grab a business? After stealing the business, isn't it easy to take the original businessmen for their own use? ”

"I see!"

Wu Yong suddenly realized, "It's what I think of!" If, according to His Highness, you can do as much business as you can in this world, it is possible to multiply these riches several times! ”

"Nope! You still don't understand what I mean! ”

Zhao Huan shook his head.

"I'm not asking you to make money, but I want you to control and manipulate the business of the Great Song Dynasty!"

Control?

Wu Yong and the others were taken aback.

The commerce of the Great Song Dynasty is so prosperous, there are millions of merchants alone, and it is appalling to want to monopolize the commerce of the Great Song Dynasty.

Without waiting for Wu Yong to ask rhetorically, Zhao Huan immediately said:

"Nowadays, people all over the world have misunderstandings about commerce, and they are all guilty of the mistake of valuing agriculture and suppressing commerce since ancient times, thinking that businessmen are not engaged in production and are not beneficial to the country."

"Not really! Farming is fundamental, but few people can make a fortune from farming; Therefore, if the world wants to be prosperous and prosperous, it must be businessmen. ”

"I let you control the commerce of the Great Song Dynasty, in fact, I dream that one day, the treasury of the Great Song Dynasty can be supported by you, and there is no need to collect taxes from the peasants of the world. In the final analysis, I want to rob the money from the pockets of those rich businessmen and use it for the state to reduce the burden on the peasants! ”

In fact, Zhao Huan didn't say anything about it, he developed the royal business in order to use the means of strong competition to quickly defeat those wealth owners, and collect most of the wealth in the hands of these few people into the treasury and then benefit the world.

By the way, those landowners were also solved, and the poor people cultivated at low rents in the form of state-owned land.

In this way, the land is planted, the people can live, and the court no longer has to worry about food, and the unlucky ones are none other than those big landlords.

This is a practice to learn from later generations, and it combines the advantages of both the East and the West.

But he didn't dare to say these words.

This world is still the world of rich businessmen and landlords, Zhao Huan wants to subvert them, it is similar to turning the world upside down, if he leaks his intentions in advance, I am afraid that he will be forced to quit the game in a few days.

Cutting off people's wealth is like killing your parents!

How could those people not fight against themselves desperately?

Even the words of "robbing the pockets of rich businessmen" must not be spread.

Even in the early stage, Zhao Huan could only do it anonymously.

But how smart Wu Yong and Liu Huiniang are, as soon as Zhao Huan finished speaking, the two of them each drew a grand picture in their minds.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, everything you think is very within the reach of people!

It's almost groundbreaking!

Zhao Huan didn't care what they thought, and continued:

"For the time being, Wu Yong can take the bookstore as the foundation, set up a huge bookstore, integrate the printing and selling of books, and first take Tokyo as the foundation, and open twenty or thirty bookstores in the city!"

"Of course, it's not just for you to sell books, I have a more important plan to make it happen with the help of your bookstore, and that is the newspaper!"

"Newspapers?"

Wu Yong felt that his brain was particularly insufficient at the moment, and Zhao Huan's words just now had just digested some of it, and a new term came out - newspaper!

"What is this newspaper?"

"This newspaper is an artifact to guide public opinion!"

Zhao Huan replied.

"For example, the news is not smooth today: the war in Guanzhong is often heard by the people of Shandong two or three months later; What happened in Tokyo, after it spread to the world, the north and south, often deviated greatly from the origin of the matter; The new decree issued by the state must also go through the mouths of officials at all levels, and the people below can know about it...... This kind of messaging method is easy to take advantage of by people with intentions! ”

"You are collecting all kinds of news in Tokyo with the aim of being my ears; Now I asked you to make a newspaper, so that you can be my mouthpiece! ”

"You see, I am going to judge the traitor soon, which is originally a thing that the people of the world like to see."

"But what evil things has Liang Shicheng done? How am I judged? How bad are the people under Liang Shicheng? Where did the wealth of Liang Shicheng's family go...... It is difficult for these messages to reach all corners of the world in their entirety! ”

"But with a newspaper it's different, how you write it, the people who read it read it; What you write, those who see it will understand it! ”

Wonderful!

When Zhao Huan said this, Wu Yong didn't understand it anymore and called Zhiduoxing in vain.

And according to Zhao Huan, he immediately thought of another use of newspapers:

Newspapers can not only disseminate facts, but also clear the name of the opponent or attack the opponent!

That's a lot to count!

"Wu Yong understands! Your Highness, rest assured, the anti-violence system will be done no matter what! ”

Wu said excitedly.

"Even if I don't need money in the early stage, I have to find a way to convey some important things to all states and counties in the world in the form of newspapers!"

Zhao Huan nodded: "It can be printed once every half a month, or once a month, you can control this according to the actual situation!" ”

"Wu Yong saves!"

Zhao Huan said to Zhu Fu and Zhu Gui again: "You two are veterans in business, but you have always been in the hotel business, and from now on, you can think about developing in other aspects!" ”

"Even if it is a hotel business, your current scale is too small, and you must always open hotels to all states and counties in the world to establish a complete hotel news network!"

"In a few days, I'll teach you some recipes for cooking spices, recipes, etc., which I promise no one has ever used today. You can use this as an advantage to compete with other hotels and liquor stores! You are no longer powerless now, and it will not be difficult for you to win. ”

As soon as Zhao Huan said this, the two brothers Zhu Fu and Zhu Gui were also fascinated, and they both made promises.

"Yan Qing is not here now, Duan Jingzhu and Bai Sheng can try the Qinglou and gambling house industry. But we must talk about credibility, and it is possible to open all over the world like Zhu's Restaurant in the future......"

"Your Highness, something is wrong!"

Before Zhao Huan finished speaking, the people guarding downstairs ran up and shouted.

"After Captain Su returned home, he suddenly had unbearable abdominal pain, his whole body was purple, and now he is ...... not awake."

"Ahh Big Daddy! ”

The three Su brothers and sisters were taken aback, and even Zhao Huan panicked and spilled the tea.
