All of a sudden, the auction was full of wealthy businessmen.

Almost all of them still did not resist the temptation of the land.

Zhou Yangsheng seemed very excited, he bid again and again, and the original initial price of a piece per mu was only 100 yuan.

In the end, it was pushed up to 500 Wen.

After all, for the vast majority of people, 500 Wen is really nothing.

And the value of a piece of 30,000 acres of land is only 15,000 taels.

Nowadays, the development of commerce and trade is extremely fast, and 15,000 acres is not a pain in the bones for Zhou Yangsheng.

He didn't even expect the land he had bought to be worth immediately, or how much money he would make from it.

But this land was bought, and no matter how valuable it was, it would be passed on to future generations.

Even if it is unprofitable for ten or twenty years, what about a hundred years later?

After winning a piece of land, Zhou Yangsheng was satisfied.

However, this auction did make many people see the heat of land transactions.

Someone started to get excited, so they ...... More people who have not yet auctioned their land are looking forward to the next auction.

In fact, the scale of this auction is not large, just the Zhang family came to test the water, for Zhang Jingyi, this is a big deal, because the Zhang family has too much land, a Siberia, which is twice as large as the two capitals and thirteen provinces in Guannai, the so-called 300,000 acres of land launched today, if it is sold like this every day, I am afraid that the Zhang family will have to sell for a hundred years to sell it all.

And...... The land sold by the Zhang family now is probably just not good or bad.

In the future, along the real railway, not to mention that the Zhang family had planned to keep it in their hands, and even if they wanted to sell it, they would need to add money.

In fact, Zhang Jingyi originally didn't expect these rotten lands to be sold for a price.

But after this auction, Zhang Jingyi realized that after the radical New Deal, which almost completely closed the land transaction, the tradition rooted in the millennium still did not dissipate, and a mature agricultural empire, with the love of land in its bones, would never have been able to implement the New Deal and suppress the desires of these people if it were not for the toughness of the Emperor of the Apocalypse and Zhang Jingyi, coupled with the absolute force of the Donglin Army.

And now, this desire has been released again, although this land is thousands of miles different from the land in the Guannai, but it is better than the cheap, in the past, in the Guannai, those landlords were ten acres and 100 acres of transactions, but here, it is ten thousand acres of starting price.

Nowadays, Zhang Jingyi is very busy, it can be said that his feet do not touch the ground, he paid attention to the land transaction matters during the day, and in the evening, he invited the members of the alumni association to have a light meal in Lushun, and there was no major discussion during the banquet, it was nothing more than the development of the Guannai alumni association.

When everyone dispersed, Liu Wenxiu refused to leave, Zhang Jingyi knew that he had something to say, so he kept quiet, and waited for everyone to leave, before seeing Liu Wenxiu in the small hall.

Liu Wenxiu's identity is different from ordinary people, he is not only the backbone of the alumni association, but also the person in charge of Jinyiwei in Liaodong, and he is in contact with countless private matters every day, so he is more and more silent.

"Mentor ......"

"Sit down and take a sip of tea." Zhang Jingyi looked calm and relaxed, and smiled.

Liu Wenxiu nodded, sat down, took a sip of tea, and said: "The Japanese and Korean countries have something to report, saying that they have sent an envoy and will arrive in the capital soon, but after the capital pays tribute, they plan to come to Liaodong." ”

"Really?" Zhang Jingyi was not surprised.

The strength of Liaodong's side has swelled, this is obvious.

For the Korean state, Jiannu was originally a big trouble, but the Donglin Army directly beat the Eight Banners of Jiannu, and then this Jiannu also joined Zhang Jingyi's command, and now Liaodong is a thousand miles a day.

The North Korean country is far inferior to the Eight Banners, not to mention that it now has a neighbor who is ten times stronger than the Eight Banners.

And this neighbor doesn't seem to be a fuel-efficient lamp, not only holding the Liaodong Donglin Army, but also the Eight Banners and the Liumin Army are also attacking the city, and it would be false to say that he was not afraid.

Not only did the Japanese have information from Korea and Liaodong, but what shocked them the most was the news that the Daming Naval Division had defeated the combined fleet.

In fact, at this time, in addition to the Ming Dynasty, the greatest influence on the Japanese was the Dutch, known as the sea coachman, the Dutch once arrived in the Japanese country, and asked the Japanese to open the country, relying on their own strong ships and cannons, directly monopolized the overseas trade of the Japanese state.

Therefore, the strength of the Dutch people is well known to the Japanese people, but such a maritime overlord is actually directly ...... The whole army was annihilated.

Within the Wa Kingdom, there was an uproar.

From the shogunate to the various daimyos, they were actually uneasy, after all, as early as decades ago, the Wa Kingdom and the Ming Dynasty fought a war in Korea, and after this war, the Wa people retreated to the Wa Island, and planned to live behind closed doors, and the Ming did not seem to continue to be aggressive, but there was a dislike between each other.

For the Japanese people, as long as I close the door, even though the Ming Dynasty has a million heroes, but after all, I can't cross the sea, and I don't have to be afraid, but now...... It doesn't seem quite the same anymore.

This means...... Once the Ming Dynasty or Zhang Jing of Liaodong moved their minds together, it was bound to be a catastrophe for the Wa Kingdom.

Therefore, this time, whether it is the Korean State or the Japanese State, they immediately sent envoys, and the Korean State is fine, after all, it is Little China, and the Ming Dynasty calls the subject countries to pay tribute, and the Korean State is often the one that takes the lead, at most it is just a concern.

The Wa Kingdom was more afraid than worried, for fear of accidents, so they came to Liaodong to test the tone, but it was their true intention.

Once Liaodong shows that it is not very friendly, at least within Wajima, it is better to take precautions as soon as possible.

Liaodong Jinyiwei has now also sent a lot of people in the Wa Kingdom, so the movements of the Wa State are reported in 1510.

Zhang Jingyi listened to his head: "The implementation of the new policy by the Ming Dynasty can be described as a thousand-year-old change, and for the vassals, why is it not a change that has not been seen in a thousand years?" Now they are suspicious of each other, but it is also said in the past. ”

"What are the plans?" Liu Wenxiu paused, and then lowered his voice: "Recently, there is a lot of hope in public opinion in Guannai and Liaodong......

Zhang Jing said: "Crossing the sea? What to do across the sea? ”

"Avenge that arrow!" Liu Wenxiu said very seriously.

Zhang Jing smiled: "This is made up by those businessmen again, right?" ”

Liu Wenxiu hurriedly said: "Not only businessmen, but also many homeless people and Jiannu people...... In the hope of World War I, many newspapers also had many such articles early. Even many articles have been spread to the territory of the vassal domains, which has caused even greater concern. ”

Zhang Jing nodded, sighed and said: "Now everyone has tasted the sweetness, this war together, how much cotton, steel and gunpowder needs to be purchased by the imperial court, I don't know how many people want to get rich." Let alone...... On the side of Liaodong, even those snow fields in the far north are still needed. This Japanese country, and even the Korean country, is much more fertile, regardless of the shame, everyone is greedy for their land, right? ”

Liu Wenxiu smiled.

Zhang Jingyi said: "Actually, to put it bluntly, now that our military is strong, once the war starts, it is bound to be a crushing situation, the losses are small, but the gains are large." In addition, many businessmen have tasted the sweetness, and there are also in the army, don't you know that many people in the army are counting on meritorious service? It's just that...... After all, the countries are vassals, and once they provoke, they will inevitably lose their morality and choose to go to war, so why not use the method of surrendering the army without a fight? ”

Liu Wenxiu said: "Teacher...... A soldier who surrenders without a fight? ”

Zhang Jingyi sighed and said, "How much do you know about the situation of the Japanese people?" ”

Liu Wenxiu thought for a while and said: "Over the years, the students have also collected a lot of information from Wadao, and they know a little bit about the general things. ”

"Then do you know how their shogunate dealt with other princes?"

This seemed to be taking the school Liu Wenxiu, Liu Wenxiu listened to it, but his eyes lit up, and he said: "What the teacher said is the "Martial Arts Laws"? ”

Zhang Jing smiled: "I never thought you knew so deeply. ”

Liu Wenxiu said: "In order to weaken the princes, this shogunate issued this decree, in addition to the agreement that criminals should not be shielded, and the etiquette of the upper and lower levels is respectful, one of which ...... It was about the system of the princes entering Edo Castle to see the shogunate, and the students thought that this was the foundation of the shogunate's ability to check and balance the princes today. ”

The Japanese called this edict the "Confession of the Pilgrimage", ostensibly only to allow the princes to go to the shogun on time, but in reality, it required the princes to perform a period of government affairs after entering Edo Castle before they were allowed to return to their domains...... It was a heavy burden for them, because their princes, even if they entered Edo, needed to have the dignity of the princes, so from the selection of servants to the cost of lodging, in addition to the cost of transportation, and the cost of carriages and horses along the way, the princes entering Edo Castle would cost almost half of the expenses of the domain, after all, bringing their families with their families, and the large number of personnel, the cost was amazing. In addition, when the princes entered Edo, they had to stay for a long time, so they ran back and forth and worked hard, and the prestige of the domain was not as good as before. ”

Zhang Jing said: "Not only that, these princes are tired, not to mention, the important thing is that it has created the prosperity of Edo Castle, hundreds of princes, every three or five to drag their families with their families, live in this Edo Castle for a long time, which means that a lot of their money in the domain will eventually be spent in Edo Castle, decades ago, this Edo Castle was just an ordinary small town, after this "Confession", this Edo but all of a sudden gathering of merchants, it can be said that the entire Wa Kingdom was drained, but it was a giant city. ”

………………

It's been six days since the surgery, and it's finally seeing the light.
