"The construction of the Great Oriental Navy fleet is quite effective, Shichang and Zhenhai Erqing are not a little troubled, I hope that Erqing will not be arrogant or impatient, and make persistent efforts, the Japanese people will definitely not tolerate the situation in the East Ocean to continue like this, they will definitely take countermeasures to deal with it, at present, the strength of the Japanese Navy is still far superior to the Imperial Navy, so the Second Secretary should be cautious. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo”

Although it seems that His Majesty the Emperor's mind seems to be a little deviated, but Zuo Shichang and Sa Zhenhai are still quite satisfied, after all, His Majesty the Emperor patrols the southeast, and when he arrives in Yuhang, he first inspects the Yuhang Military Port, and makes it clear that he will also inspect the Zhuangyuanao and Quanzhou Military Port, and even the Huludao Military Port will be included in the inspection target, which makes the two quite shocked, His Majesty's attention to the Navy is not a mere formality, it can be seen from his personal experience, which also makes Zuo Shichang and Sa Zhenhai also feel pressure, Your Majesty attaches so much importance to it, if the two of them can't come up with a decent achievement to explain to Your Majesty, the commander of the Oriental Fleet, the two of them have no shame to sit down。

"Your Majesty rest assured, Shichang and Zhenhai will never dare to live up to Your Majesty's dragon grace, within three years, Shichang and Zhenhai will definitely build an invincible fleet across the Great Eastern Ocean, all of them will definitely ask Your Majesty to take a look. Zuo Shichang didn't have too many words, so he could only set up a military order for himself to repay Wufeng's weight.

"Well, I believe in Erqing's ability, and I am willing to wait three years, and in three years, I really want to see a naval fleet worthy of the invincible prestige of my Tang Empire. Wu Feng smiled faintly and nodded.

When the naval officials retreated, Wu Feng's face gradually darkened, and his eyes became a little cold, and the urgent letter on the imperial case pressed on his heart like a boulder, and even Anne and Su Jie, who were sitting on the side to accompany him to meet with the officials, felt this gloomy depression.

"Wu Feng, there are officials from Jiangnan County waiting to be received, do you want them to wait or?" A crested jade hairpin swayed lightly, the brown and black hair was pulled into a beautiful bun, and the tortoiseshell hairpin was carefully pressed on it, this way with a strong Western Continent court style is refreshing, with Anne's white and round egg face, the concave and convex proud figure looms under the pure black and gold silk embroidered cloak, which has a unique style.

"Well, wait a minute, I'll think about it. Wu Feng waved his hand, the officials of Jiangnan County must meet him, but at the moment his mood is indeed a little bad, and he needs to adjust his life, Bo Jinchen still knows his thoughts, the Tiger Guard Legion has already taken the lead in the southwest, Liang Chongxin has also been recruited to Yuhang, Mu Lige has taken over the Eleventh Legion, and the arrangement is also orderly, but this big defeat really made Wu Feng's heart very unhappy, and You Jiangnan's mood was also destroyed.

"Wu Feng, is there something wrong with Yanjing?" Anne asked tentatively, it stands to reason that there shouldn't be any problems, Xiao Tang, Su Qin and Bo Jinchen are all in Yanjing, plus Angel is also staying in the palace, what else can be a problem?

"Hmph, Yanjing is no problem, but there is a big mess in the southwest, it is really to win glory for the empire, two big defeats, one defeat, hum, even I feel a fever on my face. Wu Feng couldn't help but snort coldly from his nose twice, Wen Na is also a veteran of the battlefield, this time he took office to plant such a big somersault, I'm afraid he even has the heart to die, right?

"What's going on in the southwest?" Su Jie couldn't help but interject and asked, "Is it the peninsula?"

"Hmph, I didn't expect the Peninsula Alliance and the Pasha people to play a beautiful trick in front of us, the empire's intelligence department was played by others as monkeys this time, the two sides secretly made peace We don't know, we don't know about the Peninsula Alliance's more than 200,000 troops returning eastward, and we don't know anything about the secret commander of the Night Rose Suleiman, I don't know what the empire spent a lot of money to support so many people in the intelligence department?!"

Thinking that it was impossible for the Peninsula Alliance and the Pasha people to reach a compromise in a short period of time, and the Peninsula Alliance did not dare to easily turn its face against the empire for the sake of Nan'an and Soketu, but he did not expect that these accidents would combine to become what it is now.

Listening to Wufeng's tone, there was something unkind, Anne and Su Jie didn't dare to interject, Wufeng rarely got angry and angry, but this time Annie and Su Jie both realized that their husband was probably really a little annoyed, and the southwest war situation was also an important part of the empire's westward expansion.

It seemed that he also noticed that he was a little out of shape in front of his concubine, Wu Feng breathed lightly, waved his hand and said, "Let's not talk about this matter for the time being, let Wang Zongxi and Bai Yuan come in again." ”

The conversation with Wang Zongxi and Bai Yuanzhong made Wufeng's originally somewhat annoyed mood immediately better, the rapid improvement of the situation in Jiangnan is inseparable from Wang Zongxi's efforts, Wang Zongxi's flexible wrist and lofty vision make Jiangnan businessmen admire this governor who once vigorously absorbed the remaining funds in Jiangnan in Tiannan, and this time he was appointed governor of Jiangnan naturally won the unanimous welcome of the industrial and commercial circles in Jiangnan.

Jiangnan industry and commerce have a strong foundation, although it hurt the muscles and bones in the Situ Tai era, but the thick commercial heritage made Jiangnan industry and commerce quickly out of the trough and ushered in another period of development. In particular, since Wang Zongxi took office, he has gone all out to win over and support the industrial and commercial leaders and financial tycoons, encourage them to increase investment, expand production, and expand overseas trade, and has achieved quite good results.

In particular, the shipbuilding, shipping, silk and tea industries of Yuhang Province have developed by leaps and bounds, and it has become a well-deserved first capital in the southeast, and overseas trade has doubled, faintly surpassing Naples to become the first commercial port in the Great Eastern Ocean. The second phase of the wharf expansion project of Yuhang Commercial Port has also officially started, and it is expected to be completed in 701 years, when the throughput capacity of Yuhang Port will be tripled compared with now, and the goal of Yuhang City Shoubai Yuanzhong is even more ambitious, he will build Yuhang into a canal and the Great Oriental Ocean during his tenure of the double central hub of the empire's domestic and foreign shipping trade, and strive for the tax and fiscal revenue of Yuhang to account for more than one-third of the entire Jiangnan County.

But this alone is not enough, Wang Zongxi before coming to Jiangnan to take up the post of governor, Wu Feng specially reminded him, asking him to not only look at the problem from the position of the governor of Jiangnan, but also from the perspective of Jiangnan County, which occupies half of the empire's financial revenue and capital reserves. Jiangnan has developed industry and commerce, advanced technology, capable people, and abundant funds, while many places in the empire are rich in resources, but lack of funds, talents and technology, Wu Feng clearly pointed out that Burmese County, Central South County, and North Luzon County should be the key counterpart support areas in Jiangnan, and Jiangnan County should introduce some policies to encourage Jiangnan capital, talent and technology to flow into these areas, and drive the economic development of these areas, and these areas will also cooperate with Jiangnan industry and commerce to give corresponding policy support.

In this regard, Wang Zongxi is also painstaking, Jiangnan businessmen finally ushered in such a good opportunity for development, are more willing to develop in their hometown, especially the rise of shipbuilding and shipping industry, so that businessmen have more investment channels, Jiangnan shipbuilding and shipping industry rapid expansion is also with a large amount of investment in Jiangnan remaining funds. Wang Zongxi had to come to persuade one by one, and asked the seven families in the south of the Yangtze River headed by the Wen family to set an example, but fortunately, in order to win development, several counties in the interior have also launched a series of preferential policies, coupled with the continuous improvement of infrastructure in the interior, and finally achieved gratifying achievements, which is why Wang Zongxi dared to raise his eyebrows in front of Wufeng.

The conversation with Wang Zongxi and Bai Yuanzhong was undoubtedly pleasant, Jiangnan's prosperity and wealth had long been in his ears, but Wu Feng didn't have many opportunities to see it, but he was more concerned about what Jiangnan could do for the empire. The gap between the rich and the poor makes the empire like a big ship with an uneven load, the rich get richer, and the poor get poorer, if this phenomenon continues, the empire will inevitably have big problems, which Wufeng never wants to see, so he put Wang Zongxi here, and he came to Jiangnan in person shortly after he ascended the throne this time, a very important purpose is to use the development of industry and commerce in Jiangnan to drive the development of other poor and backward areas, even if he himself does it himself.

Pleasant times always pass quickly, and before you know it, it's already time for dinner, and Wufeng left Wang Zongxi and Bai Yuanzhong to dine on the dragon boat, which flattered the two, which is a rare honor, and it is enough to show off to future generations.

The three of them were also talking and laughing during dinner, about the goal of Jiangnan County in the next stage, Wang Zongxi and Bai Yuanzhong were also full of confidence, Wang Zongxi's goal was to make Jiangnan's fiscal and tax revenue account for half of the empire's total fiscal and tax revenue, you must know that this is in the case of the empire adding three counties in the Central Continent and three counties in the Eastern Continent, which can be regarded as a bold statement. Bai Yuanzhong's idea was even further, he wanted to make Yuhang Mansion the center of shipbuilding, shipping, and tea making in the entire Eastern Continent, and the shipbuilding and shipping industries would overtake Naples within three years, and the tea industry would account for more than half of the entire empire.

Wu Feng also encouraged the ambition of the two, especially Bai Yuanzhong, this guy has some ability, but it's a pity that he was a little anxious at the beginning, otherwise if he was more peaceful, at least he should be the governor of a county, it seems that this lesson has made him a lot more restrained, so should he give him a chance?
