The gate of Linshui City is not only Zhongli Qiuyang and Cheng Yiren.

There are also five hundred Zhongli Qiuyang's personal guards.

There are also the neighbors of Waterfront City who have received the news and the merchants who have settled here.

A large number of people stood on both sides of the city gate, all eagerly awaiting the arrival of the regent!

The name of the regent is now extremely loud in the whole Ning Kingdom, especially in the hearts of those merchants.

Thanks to the new policy implemented by the regent to boost industry and commerce, the commerce of Ningguo is now gradually active.

The barriers to the movement of merchants that once existed between the states have been completely removed.

There is no more entrance tax.

There is no need to go to the government to issue a road guide.

The local government no longer dared to collect the haphazard taxes from the heads of the merchants, and even the local government strongly encouraged the merchants to come and build workshops under their rule.

This is a big change!

In the past, it was almost impossible to invest in other places to build workshops, not only because of the restrictions on household registration, but if you have no power or power, there will be no bones and dregs left that will be eaten by the local government.

It's good now.

Now the officials in those places will even take the initiative to go to the big businessmen in other places and ask these businessmen to set up workshops under their rule, and the procedures have become extremely simple, and there are even many preferential policies.

This took a long time for merchants who had been suppressed for a long time to get used to it.

After some daring merchants tried it, more merchants went into action.

Especially in Gangnam-do.

The business atmosphere here is already strong, and the ability to accept new things is stronger than in other places.

As a result, Jiangnan Province gradually had more merchants from Shuzhou and more merchants from Lingdong Province.

Of course, many businessmen in Jiangnan Province also invested their industries in Shuzhou or Lingdong Province, which gradually had the prototype of commercial complementarity.

A new atmosphere has gradually taken shape.

Now, the regent has returned safely, which has given all the merchants of Ningguo a reassurance.

After all, this policy was formulated when the regent left Kyoto two years ago, and when the regent left Kyoto for Kure, many merchants waited and watched for a while.

Now that the regent has returned, and it has been heard that he will also be the emperor of Ningguo, this policy will inevitably continue, and it is even very likely that more new policies will be introduced that are conducive to commercial behavior.

This is naturally expected by all businessmen.

Just in the afterglow of the setting sun.

In the sight of tens of thousands of people outside Linshui City, a fast horse galloped in!

A voice came from afar:

"Lord Admiral...... The Prince Regent's guard of honor is coming ......! ”

The horse was approaching, and a general leaped down from the horse, and he came to the front of the Admiral Zhongli Qiuyang, knelt on one knee, and saluted with a fist, "Report to the Admiral, the regent's guard of honor is a few miles away from here!" ”

"Good!"

Zhongli Qiuyang flirted with a big blow, turned over on the horse, and waved his big hand:

"You are here to maintain order, and this Admiral himself will go to greet the Lord Regent!"

He and Cheng Yiren rode away, and the people at the city gate suddenly became even more excited.

In this crowd, a middle-aged man in a fancy dress tiptoed and looked at the end of the official road, retracted his gaze, and looked at an old man beside him.

"Gong Chen, just now you always said that the Yingzhou Chen clan is planning to go to Beimo Dao to have a look......"

"I came to Jiangnan Province from the North Desert Road ten years ago, and if I want to say that I know the North Desert Road, even if I don't know it well, I still have a relatively good understanding of the situation in that place."

"Let's not talk about the Great Wilderness Country's troubles to the Northern Desert Dao, let's talk about the officialdom of the entire Northern Desert Dao...... Speaking of which, almost all of the officialdom of the Northern Desert Dao are still clean officials, but let's be honest, those so-called clean officials have not changed much about the Northern Desert Dao. ”

"Of course, there may be many reasons for this."

"For example, the imperial court did not attach importance to the Northern Desert Road, so it ignored that place in formulating national policies."

"For example, Beimodao is already very poor, and it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, and those officials have no silver in their hands, so they don't have much achievement."

"In addition to these, in terms of the ground environment of the Northern Desert Road alone...... In the next word, Chen Gong, although the entire sixteen states of the Northern Desert Dao have not been able to set foot in all of them, I have also heard that almost all of them are poor mountains and bad waters! ”

"Yingzhou Chen's business is tea and smelting...... I have never heard of any famous tea produced in Beimodao, there are many mountains, but I have never heard of any mines with rich reserves! ”

"If you really go to the Northern Desert Road...... Isn't it better to go to Lingdong Road? ”

The old man known as Chen Gong stroked his long beard and grinned:

"Tongju, you are indeed speaking from the bottom of your heart."

"Before this, my Yingzhou Chen clan really didn't have a plan to open up the Northern Desert Dao, but after hearing about the things after the regent went to the Northern Desert Dao, the Yingzhou Chen clan convened the family elite to hold a clan meeting and set a plan to run the Northern Desert Dao."

"This matter is a long story, your Xie family has a lot of business dealings with my Chen family, and your Xie family is also more familiar with Beimo Dao than my Chen family."

"After the old lady Xiang of the Xiang clan in Yuzhou arrives in this waterfront city, we will sum it up, and the old man will tell you in detail about the possible changes in the Northern Desert Dao!"

"By the way, I'm afraid you don't know that there is a talent in the Xiang family in Yuzhou, and his name is Xiang Qingyun."

"Last year, he was named on the gold list, and then Wen Shoufu personally received him, it is said that Wen Shoufu was very appreciative of a conversation, but we have no emperor in Ningguo, so we have not been named the champion!"

"However, Xiang Qingyun, this kid, was left by Wen Shoufu's side, and he has not yet been given an official, obviously waiting for the regent to return to Beijing before making a decision!"

"Xiang Qingyun said that he was doing miscellaneous things in the center, but in fact, what he came into contact with was the core secret of Ning Kingdom!"

"Old lady Xiang of Yuzhou Xiang is a very discerning person!"

"He sent his second eldest Xiang Huai to the Northern Desert Dao when he was young, and not long after Xiang Qingyun stayed with Wen Shoufu, he sent the third elder of his family, Xiang Huaiyu, to the Northern Desert Dao......"

"You taste, you combine it with the Yanjing City built in that place in Youzhou...... Although there is only one city wall in Yanjing City, since the regent named it Jing......"

Xie Tongju was stunned and his mouth grew, he understood!

But he couldn't believe it!

"Didn't you say that even if Kyoto was moved, it would be moved to Changle City?"

Chen Dingmao smiled slightly, "Changle City is only dozens of miles away from Yujing City, so what must it be?" ”

Xie Tongju was puzzled again:

"But that place in Yanjing City is really desolate?!"

"Now it's desolate, and if there are more people going, it's not desolate!"

Xie Tongju pondered for a moment, bowed slightly, and bowed: "Thank you Chen Gong for your order, if the Yingzhou Chen family wants to go to the North Desert Road for a field trip, I, Xie Shi, am willing to be the guide!" ”

"Good ......"

"Gong Chen, I heard that Su Mingtang, the head of the Ping Jiangsu clan, will also arrive in this waterfront city in the near future...... Could it be that the Su family also has this plan? ”

Chen Dingmao raised his head and looked into the distance.

"The head of the Su family came to Shui City, and he had two meanings."

"This is the first, Su Meng, the granddaughter of the famous cousin, but the fiancée of Wang Zhenghaoxuan, the son of Wang Zhengjinzhong, the emperor of the Imperial City."

"Wang Zhenghaoxuan, this kid is the real brother of the regent!"

"This is the second...... Su Yi'an, the eldest son of a famous cousin, is a servant of the province under the door, and he was personally invited by the regent when he was a year old! ”

"Jiangnan Su family, this is developed!"

"Cousin Ming naturally wants to come here to meet the regent, as the head of the Jiangnan merchants...... Of course, he also has to lead by example and become a model for the regent's new policy! ”

"The old man came here mainly to meet his famous cousin and listen to his high opinions."

Chen Dingmao understood.

Jiangnan Province fell with a Shang clan and rose with a Su clan.

That's the situation.

So how will the situation change in the future?

Chen Dingmao looked up at the official road.

Everything is tied to that one person.

This is the hope of all!
