Chapter 154: Post-War Development (Part II)

Not only that, Xiang Luyang also set up some post stations on the main roads leading to Dengzhou in various places, which usually have the same function as taverns, providing catering and accommodation services for merchants for a fee.

But once they encounter a roadblock robbery, these post house guys, immediately turned into officials, to help the traders, to solve the trouble, because Xiang Luyang relied on his own strength to eradicate the news of the Haisha Gang, has been spread into a myth in the land of Qilu, so the mountains of Shandong will give him some face, as long as the merchants say that they are doing business in Bendenzhou City, the various hills, will not be too difficult for them.

At the beginning, the mountains of Qingzhou, Yanzhou and other places, relying on their own distance from Dengzhou, intercepted several merchants who went to Dengzhou, but their mountains were uprooted on the night of the robbery, and the chickens and dogs were not left.

In fact, Xiang Luyang himself did not send people to Qingzhou, Yanzhou and other places to deal with those mountains, these things were all done by Luo Tianwu and others in the back, Xiang Luyang also knew what was going on, this was also the development needs of Luo Tianwu and others, so he acquiesced to these things.

It turned out that the private salt business controlled by the Haisha Gang, Xiang Luyang also sent someone to take it over, this money is not made in vain, the official salt has always been in the hands of the imperial court, that part of the money has to be handed over, Xiang Luyang has not been generous, and he has created a profit for his opponent.

After the implementation of Xiang Luyang's series of actions, almost all the industries in Dengzhou City have been driven, and the first thing to get the benefits is the business of taverns and inns.

There were no taxes, sales were unimpeded, and for a time these farmers had spare money in their hands.

When Xiang Luyang was developing the economy, he didn't just look at money, he banned all private schools in Dengzhou City, and replaced them with schools, which not only taught literature, but also taught martial arts.

The people of Dengzhou City, when they learned that Xiang Luyang was personally the principal, sent their children here, because they all wanted their children to become people like Xiang Luyang, and even more, the rich people in the surrounding cities of Dengzhou also entrusted people, found relationships, and sent their children to Xiang Luyang.

When Xiang Luyang was doing these things, he also reported everything to Zhu Youzhen in the form of letters, and now is not the time to turn his face with Zhu Youzhen, he still has to rely on Zhu Youzhen to buy time for himself.

Although Zhu Youzhen has never replied, Xiang Luyang still reports in detail every time he does something, the process of the matter and its purpose, of course, when it involves money and troops, Xiang Luyang will make some discounts, he can't let Zhu Youzhen know his true purpose.

In these three months, Xiang Luyang's militia has expanded to more than 4,000 people, although the number has been growing, but Xiang Luyang still feels that the manpower is not enough, no way, and now his stall is too big.

In the past three months, Luo Tianwu has gained a firm foothold in Yanzhou, and Marco has his own territory in Qingzhou, and the most surprising thing for Xiang Luyang is Wu Ran, this kid actually mixed into the army, and now there are more than 400 people under his hands.

Gao Biying took Zhao Guizhen, and chose to fall into the grass as a coward, specializing in robbing those rich and unkind landlords, Jinbao is even more desperate, this guy is entangled in a group of tomb robbers, specializing in looking for ancient tombs all over Shandong, as long as good things are dug out from them, they will be sent to Gao Biying, and after he sells them, he will support the silver taels to several other people.

During this time, Long Feiyu also came a few times, discussed with Xiang Luyang, and asked Xiang Luyang to open a dart game in Jinan, at first, Xiang Luyang wanted him to do it himself in Jinan, and then the two sides cooperated, but Long Feiyu said that he would not say anything.

If Xiang Luyang has to do it himself, he assists from the side, and he doesn't take a penny of profits, and in the end, Xiang Luyang has no choice but to compromise, but the premise is that Long Feiyu must participate in the operation, and he must take 30% of the dry shares.

When the Jinan Mansion Dart Bureau opened, Xiang Luyang did not go to the opening ceremony, but he sent Shen Aotian over, and when Shen Aotian came back, he brought him back a gift, which was given by Wu Junshan, a token, with this token, all the children of the martial arts family will listen to him.

Xiang Luyang knew that this was a thank you gift from Wu Junshan to Shen Aotian, so he didn't leave this token for himself, but directly left the token to Shen Aotian.

After the autumn harvest, Xiang Luyang has nothing to do, this day when he was idle and bored in the back hall, Ye Qiushui walked in, and when he saw Ye Qiushui coming, Xiang Luyang joked: "Master Ye, why are you free to come over, come and sit down, I'll pour you tea!" ”

Ye Qiushui glanced at him and said, "Okay, don't be poor, I'm here to discuss with you." ”

Xiang Luyang said: "What kind of business, haven't we all handled our business?" ”

Ye Qiushui said: "Lingyunguan, how long do you plan to lock them up?" ”

Hearing Ye Qiushui say this, Xiang Luyang patted his head and said, "If you don't remind me, I have forgotten about these people, how are they now?" Is it still locked up in that small courtyard? ”

Ye Qiushui said: "If you remember, those people would have starved to death a long time ago, and they are all fine now, and they are all in the barracks!" ”

Xiang Luyang said: "What's going on with this Lingyun Temple, have I forgotten, they have also forgotten about it?" ”

Ye Qiushui said: "How could they forget, three months ago, Yihe sent someone to deliver a letter, and the tone of the letter was very tough, saying that he was waiting for you in Lingyunguan to personally send people back, if you don't send it within 100 days, he will come to visit you in person!" ”

Xiang Luyang said: "Now there are a few days left before the 100-day period?" ”

Ye Qiushui said: "Three days! ”

Xiang Luyang said: "Enough, it's time to solve this matter!" ”

Ye Qiushui said: "You plan to go in person?" ”

Xiang Luyang said: "Go in person, I also want to meet this Yihe and see what kind of character he is." ”

Ye Qiushui said: "How many people do you plan to bring?" ”

Xiang Luyang said: "It's just me!" ”

Ye Qiushui said: "No, you can't go by yourself!" ”

Xiang Luyang said: "A few of you can't leave, it's useless for others to bring too much, I have two guns for one person, even if I encounter danger, they can't help me." ”

Ye Qiushui said: "Are you willing to use a gun?" ”

Xiang Luyang said: "I am in a hurry, I have how many catties and taels I have, I know in my heart!" ”

Ye Qiushui said: "That's okay, you go, when will you leave?" ”

Xiang Luyang said: "Tomorrow! ”
