Yes, many times, he is also a little envious of Zhao Cheng's beginning, although he has nothing, but it is precisely because he has nothing that he is good at painting.

Kill whoever you want, kill whoever you want, and cut whoever you want, unlike him, who has to find an impeccable reason to raid a house.

Fortunately, the Dacang family has a big business, relying on a large number of land sales, alleviating the financial crisis, and raising more moths can also afford it, as long as the system of the imperial court can still operate normally, it is worth it.

If it is precisely because of the moths that the whole system is destroyed, it will be the worst and stupidest.

He Liu Guangzheng is not the founding ancestor of the country, and he can't act recklessly, even if he is unhappy, he has to endure it.

Liu Guangzheng can still grasp this point.

While vigorously building factories, Liu Guangzheng also launched a variety of labor-saving, can greatly improve the production efficiency of agricultural tools, these things, in the past, are taboo, because it will liberate part of the manpower and affect the stability of the world.

But now, Liu Guangzheng wants to develop industry, and what he needs is manpower.

Only by freeing up part of the manpower can we support a sufficient number of workers.

Sure enough, this year, the world ushered in a bumper harvest, under normal circumstances, it should be the grain that hurts the peasants, and the price of grain will be very low, but it will make the peasants starving.

However, because the imperial court had money from selling land, the price of grain was stabilized, and many peasants ushered in a respite.

Some of the grain bought by the imperial court was used as military food, and some of it was used to select workers' seeds from the people.

In this case, it has made countless people moved.

And this is not the end, in order to expand the army, in the second year, Liu Guangzheng began to sell arms.

At the beginning, Zhao Cheng only had a few Taoists, and for most of the year, he had two thousand guns in his hands, and Liu Guangzheng, now the Taoists under his command, are counting thousands and running at full strength, and the productivity is very terrifying.

It's just that most Taoists are self-respecting and noble, and they don't want to burn the stove.

For this reason, Liu Guangzheng simply tempted him with a pardon, of course, not directly pardoning the Heavenly Master, but directly dividing the number of qi and receiving wages by piece.

Liu Guangzheng gave very little qi, not that he was reluctant, after all, if the imperial court died, no matter how much qi he had, it would be empty.

It's because the production capacity of steel is limited, the raw materials are not enough, and there are not too many guns.

But Rao is most Taoists, and they can't look down on such a little bit of qi, but there are still more than 100 Taoists who are willing to do this hard work.

By the second year, the production of steel had risen, so Liu Guangzheng also raised the "wages" of Taoist stoves.

Therefore, in the second year, the imperial court issued a decree allowing individuals to buy guns, but the more expensive than guns is bullets.

As soon as this decree came out, the orders of the imperial court were directly scheduled for next year.

Originally, according to the normal situation, if Liu Guangzheng developed industry and manufactured firearms, he would never be able to sell them, and he would only arm himself and then sweep the world with this force.

Let people spend money to buy, it is better to rob the other party directly.

But now, with Zhao Cheng's enemy in the Southern Wilderness, he is no longer allowed to provoke civil strife.

And selling the gun will make it more difficult for Zhao Cheng to attack the imperial court.

After all, Zhao Cheng can also make these guns, even if they are captured by Zhao Cheng, they are useless.

The biggest disadvantage of the Southern Wilderness is that there are few people, and the biggest advantage of the imperial court is that there are many people, as long as the imperial court is fully armed, even if it is ten for one, for the imperial court, it is also profitable.

In this way, until the third year, the number of Canglongwei in Liu Guangzheng's hands has swelled to 100,000, everyone is equipped with guns, and has been trained for a long time, if there is no Zhao Cheng's Taiping army, this is undoubtedly the strongest army in the world.

After all, the army is money, and to pull up the army is to burn money.

And Liu Guangzheng, who is selling land and arms, can be said to have done the two most profitable things, in this case, he is sitting on the four seas, if he can't pull up such an army, it can only prove that he is too incompetent.

Not only that, as early as the first year, he ordered that magistrates and famous families all over the country could train the militia on their own, and even collect armor.

Originally, this kind of thing was opened for a period of time by the imperial court because of the Yellow Sky Rebellion, but it was banned later, but now it is opened again.

In this case, in order to protect themselves, the local forces naturally work hard.

It is true that this is weakening the imperial court's control over the local area and weakening the authority of the local government, but in order to resist Zhao, Liu Guangzheng can no longer care about this.

Even if in the end, Dacang becomes the kind of person in his previous life, the local forces are divided, and the royal family just becomes a mascot-like existence, he will not hesitate to do it.

His experience told him that when fighting with something like the Heavenly Demon, there could be no luck, and only by holding the heart of the jade burner could there be a little hope of winning.

In this case, in three years, the strength of the small forces of the people of Dacang will be at least one million in the eleven states of the world combined.

In addition, the state pastors, those big families, and powerful people in various places add up, but there are at least two million.

As for the reason, it is naturally because those ambitious people did not hesitate to see this opportunity, and they recruited troops and horses, and they already had the heart of disobedience.

After all, from ancient times to the present, it is the strong soldiers and strong horses who are the sons of heaven.

And the imperial court, the garrisons in the eleven states of the world, plus the army in the capital, are only more than 600,000.

The pattern of weak lords and strong ministers has emerged.

In this case, it is natural that no one can help but think about it.

After all, because of the battle of the Heavenly Pass, the big clan was strong and powerful, which can be described as heavy damage, and if the imperial court pressed forward step by step, it may not be able to greatly strengthen the centralization of power and weaken the strong and powerful.

But Liu Guangzheng is going to "go against the grain".

The smart people in this world naturally know that this is the idea of using their power to weaken Zhao Cheng, which belongs to a clear scheme, after all, looking at the new country, everyone is strong, and there is no good end.

Even if it is a surrender, I am afraid that I will lose my current wealth and honor, although life will not be sad, but it is impossible to be as prominent as it is now.

And with foreign enemies, even if the local heroes are strong, it is impossible to attack the imperial court first, otherwise they will be eliminated by others in the name of the Qing monarch, and a balance will be formed.

It can be said that Liu Guangzheng's political wisdom is not bad at all, if there is no Zhao Cheng in this world, he may really be able to become a generation of saints, for the great cang, continue the national fortune for hundreds of years.

And that is, at the end of the third year, in the fourth year, when it just came, Zhao Cheng, who burned the plank road and had been silent in the Southern Wilderness for three years, finally moved.

He sent a large number of craftsmen and began to overhaul the plank road!

With this move, he immediately attracted the attention of the entire world, and for a while, the entire Shenzhou was shaken by it.
