Time passed quietly, and it had been several months since Yi Yun returned to the Shanghai Oasis, the year of the Great Meng Calendar in 1561, the year of sailing the East China Sea, was about to come to an end, and the chill of late winter wrapped the huge Shanghai Oasis, but the city still exuded great vitality even in the depths of winter.

The streets are full of people shuttling back and forth, and merchants from all over the world are still engaged in trade in the market.

Although Yi Yun agreed to teach Zhou Zifan how to govern the country, in fact, he didn't teach him anything in the past few months, and asked him to carefully observe the situation of the Shanghai Oasis first to see how the people were doing.

According to Evian's words, how can the country be governed well? Only when the people are happy can it be considered good! If the people are not happy, the country will certainly not be well governed.

Zhou Zifan didn't understand this truth at first, but with his in-depth understanding of the Shanghai Oasis, he slowly discovered that this is the life that the people really want, there are smooth streets when they go out, and they can buy everything in the market when they want to buy things.

If you think of Shanghai as an independent country, rather than a city in the Great Meng Country, then it already has all the ingredients to make your country strong. The economy is developed, the army is strong, the regime is stable, and the unique culture of the Shanghai Oasis also radiates to several surrounding cities, such as the Hangzhou Oasis, with the tacit approval of Cai Rou, the king of Qiantang. Under the leadership of Hu Zhongxian, learning from the governance experience of Shanghai Oasis, Hangzhou is also in the process of establishing a Zhencheng Shen Management Team. 119, 110, 114, 120 and other departments were also set up, and Hu Zhongxian also set up a "Governor's Open Letter Box." There is also the Nanjing Oasis, and the King of Jinling said: "This trick is not bad." As a result, local officials have followed the trend frantically, and there has been a boom in the digital sector.

Zhou Zifan seems to vaguely understand something, and I have to say that he is a leader in the Donglin Party. Because he is different from other Donglin Party members, although he is also stinky and hard, and he is poisoned by the ideology of the Heavenly Empire, he is an upright person, clean himself, and really willing to think about the people, otherwise he would not be called Zhou Qingtian by the people and loved by the people of Jiangnan.

Zhou Zifan desperately studied these reasons that inadvertently made an oasis so powerful, and composed them into many parts. Based on his observations, he wrote "On the Power of Cultural Radiation." Silently annexing neighboring countries", "Enlightened policies can promote economic take-off", "The relationship between the economy and state tax collection", "A strong army needs a strong economy as a backing", "A strong army will bring the greatest guarantee to the country......

As these folds were written out one by one, some of Zhou Zifan's own ignorant views in his heart also changed. Because in these seemingly independent passages, he found many unclear relationships. Policies affect economic and cultural development, and backward policies will hinder economic and cultural development. And enlightened policies will boost the economy and culture. The economy affects the military, and without the economy there is no military.

Culture can help the military, because the culture of Sheng Ming will have a radiation effect on the surroundings, so that the people of the neighboring countries will be invisibly assimilated, and the army will be very easy to win when attacking. This. It was only when Zhou Zifan saw that several boats of Japanese robbers took the initiative to go to the Shanghai Oasis to surrender, and he thought of it. Because when these Japanese invaders surrendered, they kept saying that they longed for the new life of the Shanghai Oasis, and did not want to be Japanese at sea anymore, and hoped to be some serious fishermen and accept the jurisdiction of the Oasis. I have to say that it was the culture of Shanghai Oasis that infected them. ...,

In the end, the most important thing is the military, and having a strong army can ensure the existence of all the above, otherwise it is empty to say anything.

Zhou Zifan excitedly sealed these concerts and sent them to his mentor in the imperial capital, his mentor is almost the same as Zheng Shuliang's identity, he is one of the leaders of the Donglin Party, and has a very high prestige in the Donglin Party.

When Zhou Zifan was busy, what was Yi Yun doing?

In the palace of the king of Shanghai, unreliable visitors are coming!

In the lobby, one tall and one short, two women, one big and one small, are sitting on the guest seat drinking tea, the tall one is heroic and upright, with a trace of heroism in her beauty, but unfortunately the clothes she is wearing are tattered, and they are very dirty, this person is Taishi Xiaohua. The short one is still a little Lori, but there is no trace of the innocence and cuteness of the little Lori, the whole face is expressionless, this person is Zhou Lanye.

Yi Yun sat on the main seat, accompanied by Chen Yuanyuan and Zhu Qingqing, and was greeting guests.

Taishi Xiaohua smiled and said: "You are really generous this time, buy me two thousand beautiful maids and five thousand male servants at one time, and you have to ask the Cao Gang to transport them, it is really a lot of trouble, so many maids, your small body is really fine?"

Yi Yun coughed dryly and said, "I bought them to work, not to do that, it has nothing to do with my body." Besides, I obviously bought 5,000 male servants, why do you just grab the maidservants and talk about things?"

Although Zhou Lanye had no expression on his face, his eyes glanced at Chen Yuanyuan with a hint of deep meaning, and then patted Taishi Xiaohua's arm and said, "Well, I also don't think he will do that with these maidservants, to put it ...... What are you buying so many women for?"

"It's all said, get to the point!" Yi Yun said unhappily: "Obviously, I also bought five thousand male servants, whether you or Taishi Xiaohua, why do you grab the maid and say it repeatedly." ”

Taishi Xiaohua laughed and said: "Because we are women, women are born to love gossip, and such a large amount of human trafficking involves many beautiful maids, and it is a man who is the buyer, of course, it will inevitably lead people to reverie...... Tut-tut...... Think of a slick man walking into the midst of two thousand slick women...... Wow...... Yaay......y No, my brain capacity doesn't allow me to keep thinking about it. ”

Taishi Xiaohua said as she bleed from her nose.

Yi Yun Khan: "Are you a lustful old man? I actually thought that I had a nosebleed, I really can't stand you." ”

"Okay, anyway, the goods have been delivered, Zhou Lanye and I can say goodbye!" Taishi Xiaohua grinned, took Zhou Lanye's hand, and walked out, both of them are people from the rivers and lakes, and they don't pay attention to the court's etiquette, and they don't pay attention to Yiyun, the prince, so they swaggered out.

When the two of them left, Chen Yuanyuan laughed and said: "Look, Xianggong, I just said, if you buy so many people, you will definitely be ridiculed by the people in the rivers and lakes, in fact, the people in the court know about it, and they want to laugh at you, but you are the prince, they don't dare to say it in front of you." ”

Yi Yun flattened his mouth: "A group of bad guys, their minds are not pure. ”

Zhu Qingqing next to him suddenly jumped out again, and said with a smile: "I know why you want to buy so many servants, hahaha, you must have bought them to serve me! Although I am now playing hide and seek with the whole world, but after all, I am the king of a country, and there are thousands of officials and girls serving me alone in the imperial capital. ”

"If you jump out and talk nonsense, it's the biggest inconsistency. Yi Yun grabbed her neck and threw her hand into the side hall, the figure in the side hall flashed, and the thirty-two father-in-law flew out and held Zhu Qingqing Qingqing, and the sweat said: "Lord, be careful of breaking the emperor." ”...,

"Cut, this woman has been smoking for a long time, the more I pump her, the happier she is, if she doesn't smoke her one day, she will be lost. Eyun snorted.

"Okay, Xianggong can tell me, what are you doing when you buy these maidservants, right?" Chen Yuanyuan pouted: "Moreover, after returning from Penghu this time, you have been staying at home, refusing to go out for half a step, I don't know what medicine you are selling in the gourd, you tell me, what are you planning, otherwise...... Hum...... The twenty-four bridges and bright moon nights that I promised you tonight will be pulled down. By the way, An Qian and Yan Wanwan will also come together tonight, if you miss it, it will hurt very much. ”

Of course, Yi Yun will not miss this kind of good thing, he quickly straightened up and said with a smile: "You are my most powerful woman, of course I have to tell you about this." ”

He said seriously: "After returning from the first battle in Penghu, I feel that my strength is still too weak, although I have more than 1,000 nominal black soldiers, as well as nearly 100 artillery soldiers, which is very strong among the princes of the Great Meng Kingdom, but ...... Looking at the whole world, my strength is not very good, not to mention the enemies such as the Dutch, Spain, and Portugal in the country, even if it is the rebels in the Dameng country, the Cao Gang, the Beggar Gang, and the Zheng Zhilong Pirate Group, the strength is stronger than me. ”

"Well, that's right!" Chen Yuanyuan nodded and said: "Xianggong's strength is indeed not very strong, but with my Sanjiang Pavilion, the Cao Gang and the Beggars still don't need to be taken seriously." Rebels and Zheng Zhilong...... That's more powerful than we put together...... What do you mean by that?"

Yi Yun spread his hands and said, "I want to strengthen my strength......!" I stayed at home and bought a large number of maidservants and servants. ”

Chen Yuanyuan's eyes lit up, and he suddenly understood: "Staying at home is to practice the 'Imperial House', and I bought a large number of maids and domestic servants, and I plan to promote more subordinates after the career upgrade of the house, right?"

"That's right!" Yi Yun said seriously: "In the face of the turbulent and changing world, the crumbling Da Meng country! The otaku must do something to save it! And the biggest weapon of the otaku is to stay at home!"
