When I got up early, I still looked at the cloudless appearance, after noon, a gust of wind came, but suddenly became cloudy, the mountain rain was coming, when it was time to hold the lamp, the gloomy God finally couldn't help it, with a thunderstorm, the rain beads of bean grain were split and fell from the sky, hit the ground, stirred up a burst of gray mist, and a fishy air in the air diffused in all directions.

It was cloudy for a long time, and everyone in the Tiger Prison Pass was also prepared, and as soon as the rain fell, countless colorful umbrella flowers bloomed on the street at once, and from top to bottom, it was also a different scenery.

The economic penetration of the Ming State into the Qin State can be said to have involved all aspects, from food, weapons, to all kinds of daily necessities, everything, as long as you can use it, the Ming people will be very considerate to send it to you, of course, you need to exchange things for money.

This example is the colorful umbrella flowers that bloom on the street now. In the past, when it rained, more of it was used as a hat and a green paper umbrella, but with the opening of the business road, the Ming merchants poured in, and all kinds of more exquisite, more durable, and cheaper goods poured into the tiger prison, and immediately the tiger prison was already fragile and all kinds of workshops were defeated. Generally speaking, they have only two paths, one is to go bankrupt and become a poor man who is not literate, and the other is to become a vassal of the Ming merchants.

There's nothing good about it. The Qin merchants in the Tiger Prison Pass immediately became loyal supporters of the Ming merchants, and the Ming merchants did not kill the Qin merchants, but adopted a way to accept them in a way that seemed extremely friendly to the Qin merchants. They could use their own workshops, previous techniques, labor, and even the connections of these workshops in other parts of the Qin State as capital shares, although these things seemed to the Qin merchants to be worthless to the Ming people, but the Ming people generously gave them shares and incorporated them into their own system.

In the past few years, the Ming people's economic penetration capacity has been involved in all aspects of the Qin State through these methods, and every corner has not been spared. In the words of Wang Yueyao, the boss of the Ming Dynasty Commercial Bureau, where there are Qin people now, there are Ming people's goods.

The Ming State Department of Commerce gave policy guidance, and the profit-seeking businessmen immediately rushed into the Qin State like a shark that smelled blood, and under the backing of the Ming army's bright broadsword, they had no scruples to use all their solutions to impact the fragile industry and commerce of the Qin State, and it is no exaggeration to say that the national economy of the Qin State has basically been hollowed out by the Ming people. As long as the Ming people are willing, they can create one economic collapse after another in the Qin State at any time.

The control of the big businessmen is naturally the input of bulk goods, and the remaining corners and corners are the paradise of other small businessmen in the Ming Kingdom, and these small businessmen who followed the footsteps of these big businessmen into the Qin State are far inferior to the big businessmen in terms of financial strength and official strength, but they are better than the crowd, even if they pick up some small business opportunities that the big businessmen look down on, it is enough for them to live extremely nourishingly.

This commercial invasion did not have the momentum of thousands of troops, but the results achieved were far better than a big victory on the battlefield, and this also allowed the bigwigs of the Ming Kingdom Zhengshitang to see another way to conquer. Compared with the naked war, this commercial invasion seems to moisturize things silently, but it kills people invisibly.

These bigwigs believed that after two years of economic plundering of the Qin state, if the war against the Qin people was officially launched now, their fragile economy would collapse immediately, and their army would not be able to pay their salaries, not have enough food, and would not have all kinds of materials to deal with the war. This war has not officially begun, and the Ming Kingdom can already claim to be the victor.

Another notable result of the Great Commercial Invasion was the paper money issued by the Ming State, which became a popular currency in the Qin State, and the coinage made by the Qin State was forcefully suppressed. Now the Qin people, especially these states and counties near the border of the Ming State, basically no longer use the money system of the Qin State. The reason is very simple, they are more closely connected with the Ming people, and they are more dependent on the Ming merchants, but when they trade with the Ming merchants, they don't want the money of the Qin State at all, and all the settlements must be carried out in Ming currency.

There's no way! There are more and more Qin people working for the people of the Ming Kingdom, and the wages they give are the paper money of the Ming Kingdom, don't you? Yes, you were fired. In the Qin State, are you still worried that you can't find someone to do things?

Slowly, the people of Qin discovered that these banknotes of the Ming people seemed to be very easy to use, and they could buy more things than the money made by Qin. The price of goods on the street seems to fluctuate every day if measured by Qin copper coins, but when measured by Ming coins, it is quite stable. The common people did not understand any advanced things such as finance and economics, but this did not hinder their wisdom in life, and when they could buy more things with the Ming coins worth one tael of silver than the Qin State money worth one tael of silver, they immediately abandoned their own country's makers without hesitation.

Like the Tiger Prison Pass, which is now a goods distribution center from the Ming State to the Qin State, a merchant concentration camp, and the Ming currency has long become the common currency here. It has long been difficult to find the shadow of Qin's money on the market.

The rain is getting heavier and heavier, and even though the Tiger Prison has taken the problem of drainage into account during construction, the water is still beginning to accumulate on the street, and the rain shows no signs of abating, and there are obviously fewer pedestrians on the street. In such a heavy rain, even with an umbrella, your body will be splashed wet.

In the heavy rain, the usually busy street suddenly seemed deserted, but the guys of the major shops smiled and even moved a stool to sit at the door and enjoy the heavy rain. Usually they are not so idle, thieves are busy. All day long, there is a time to rest, even if it is to eat, it is a rush to pick up a few mouthfuls, and you have to run to the thatched house, otherwise the boss will shout at the top of his voice.

These bosses from the Ming Kingdom have high wages, but they arouse people, and they also use women as men and men as beasts.

Having said that, the Qin people here are as happy as they are, and compared to the past, their lives are much better. Now it's not just a matter of having enough to eat, but thinking about how to live a more comfortable life. Ming businessmen are a little fierce, but the money is refreshing, once the business is very good, the boss is not stingy with rewards, sometimes a month down, the reward money, higher than the salary, there is such a good thing, the guys don't look forward to their own business is a little better!

Recently, business has been getting better and better, because the handsome son is getting married, and the daughter-in-law is still the granddaughter of the king of Kaiping County. In the past few days, there have been more and more people coming from the Tiger Prison Pass, basically all of them are people from all the counties of Qin State who have come to congratulate them, and the inns in the city have long been full, and those who come later can only find a way to stay in the city. Renting an apartment is one of the options. Many people whose homes are in the Tiger Prison have made a windfall this time, and many people and even their whole families would rather squeeze into the firewood house, but also vacate their houses and rent them out, renting for a short period of ten days, which is worth a year's wages.

These days, especially restaurants, restaurants and even some roadside stalls, are making a lot of money, and of course, they are also tired and cramping.

Today's heavy rain can be regarded as stealing half a day of leisure, just to rest, as the wedding day is approaching, I want to be busy for several days. After this incident, the owners have to give a little reward money to reward everyone for their hard work during this time.

It's a pity that Dashuai only has one son, if there are a few more, come here once a year, won't it be sent?

That's what many people think in their hearts.

But He Weiping didn't think so, he was galloping his horse at the moment, galloping directly into the city from outside the east city gate, the huge sound of horses' hooves trampling on the ankle-high water, splashing pieces of water, pouring a row of soldiers guarding the city gate from head to toe, but no one dared to make a sound.

Because He Weiping is the deputy general of Tiger Prison Pass, theoretically speaking, his identity is second only to Xiao Qiang, and he is a role under one person and above ten thousand people in Tiger Prison Pass.

Of course, this can only be theoretically argued.

In the Tiger Prison Pass, He Weiping was not so comfortable. The second child has always been the most difficult to be, because the boss is always guarding you from grabbing power, and the third and fourth children below are staring at him, waiting for him to make a mistake, so as to pull him off the horse and replace him himself.

In short, this position is a character roasted on a fire.

Of course, He Weiping is not a soft-footed shrimp that can be manipulated by others, he can sit firmly on the second chair under Xiao Qiang's obscenity, and he naturally has a few brushes. First, it is his great achievements, on the battlefield of alignment, he has repeatedly made military exploits and has a great reputation, and second, he also has his own circle and power. In the Tiger Prison Pass, whoever is stronger will naturally speak more loudly.

In the past, his strength was second only to Xiao Qiang, and his tone of speech was naturally high, but in the past two years, the problem has come out. After Xiao Qiang caught up with the Ming people, his strength increased dramatically, and the Tiger Prison Pass expanded to 100,000 people, of which eighty percent were controlled by Xiao Qiang's henchmen, and as a deputy general, in addition to the 10,000 horses and horses of his own lineage, the other armies were not so respectful to He Weiping.

The higher Xiao Qiang's tone, the lower He Weiping's voice naturally became, He Weiping knew very well that if he continued like this, he would either completely become Xiao Qiang's lackey, or be kicked out of the tiger prison.
