Chapter Ninety-Eight: Whose Meal Is Eaten, Whose Clothes Are Dressed, Whose Money Is Taken, Whose Words Are Listened to, Whose Sword Is Served!

Time flies, time flies.

Unconsciously, Li Yunze had been sending troops to the southeast for a long time.

His reputation in the southeast is so great that he has reached the point where he can stop a child's night cry just by mentioning his name.

In order to compete for the right to sea trade, Li Yunze can be said to be killing on a large scale.

The previous sea lords and merchants were almost swept away by him, and the rest were smart people who had the strength of vision and hurriedly defected to his command when they saw the wind.

Li Yunze took over their supply and took over their channels.

The ironclad fishing fleet destroyed and blockaded the ports everywhere, eliminated the pirates, sank many disobedient ghost ships, and forced them to bring gold and silver to the center of the left to do business.

The sea trade business is so huge, and the trade harvest every month is so great that even Xue Zhen, who is used to seeing goods, is trembling.

"Do you know what is the most important thing in doing maritime trade in this era?"

Faced with Li Yunze's inquiry, Xue Zhen thought for a while and said, "Strong capital? โ€

Li Yunze shook his head: "No." โ€

"Plenty of supply?" ลดลดลด.BIQUGE.biz

Li Yunze shook his head again: "Not really." โ€

"Smooth channels?"

Li Yunze still shook his head, "You always look at problems from the perspective of a businessman, and your thinking is limited." From an overall point of view, the most important thing in doing maritime trade is to have a hard fist. โ€

"Without a fleet blockading the ports and cutting off the enemy's access to the sea, who will come to buy what this center left is?"

"Without Jingying sweeping all the powerful sea owners, how can we master the supply channels?"

"Without soldiers and horses in hand, who will easily let the local government go without engaging in moths?"

"What the second brother said is very true." Xue Zhen saluted respectfully, "Xue Zhen has been taught." โ€

Li Yunze smiled, "You are much stronger than you Xue Pan, and I have nothing to teach you." In a few days, I will lead my troops back to Shenjing. Everything here is up to you. โ€

Xue Zhen paused slightly, and subconsciously responded, "Second brother, I'm just a shallow learner..."

"Don't talk about this kind of article." Li Yunze waved his hand, "You have the ability, and you are your own person, I can rest assured that it will be handed over to you here." There is a word for you. โ€

Xue Zhen first nodded, and then saluted, "I was about to ask the second brother for guidance." โ€

"I'll leave Jia Lan to lead troops to assist you, and he will send a fleet to Fusang to open up trade routes in the near future. There is a lot of gold and silver in Fusang, and no matter what method you use, you have to get it. Li Yunze's expression was a little serious, "Don't ask too much about military matters, you take care of the money here, and send it to Shenjing City to me regularly, no matter who else asks for you, don't pay attention to it even if it is ordered by the emperor." โ€

Xue Zhen, who looked awe-inspiring, first thought thoughtfully, and then looked solemn, "I understand." โ€

It's easy to talk to smart people, if this is Xue Pan, even if Li Yunze speaks, he won't understand it.

"Second brother." Xue Zhen took a wooden box, and after opening it, it was actually a bottle of perfume, "This is a treasure of Francis Country, it is very rare, please take it to Shenjing City and send it to my sister." โ€

"I have a heart." Li Yunze didn't say that I have this thing there, and your sister Baochai doesn't lack this thing or anything.

He accepted the perfume and patted Xue Zhen's shoulder, "Do things well, and the Xue family will look at you in the future." โ€

Xue Zhen, who chuckled, lowered his head, but what he thought was that the hope of the Xue family in the future could only fall on Sister Baochai. ....With most of the Southeast Haikou pacified by Li Yunze, the remaining ones could no longer become a climate under the deterrence of ironclad fishing boats. The ghosts were subdued, and obediently went to the center and left to do legitimate business.

On Li Yunze's side, it was also time to return to Shenjing City.

The emperor was already not at ease with him, not to mention that he was leading troops outside, and he still had a large amount of financial resources in his hands, and no emperor would allow him to cultivate power outside for a long time.

Li Yunze actually wants to say something to the emperor, you are thinking too much, I want to do something in Shenjing City.

The army returned from camp, this time by land over the northern Fujian Mountains, and then crossed the Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces and returned to Beijing along the Grand Canal.

After more than a month of trekking through mountains and rivers, he finally returned to Shenjing City.

Unlike the last time after pacifying the southwest, only the king of Zhongshun went out of the city to greet him, this time the emperor personally led a hundred officials out of the city for ten miles to welcome the triumphant army.

The reason is very simple, during this period of time, the border troubles in the north were continuous, and the nine sides suffered defeats one after another, and the Jurchen soldiers and horses of the Liao region even broke through the barriers, and there were countless disasters in the north of Zhili.

As the disaster situation continued to worsen, the drifting of civilian officials became more and more serious, and the wandering of the local government gradually became the climate, and the repeated attacks and suppressions of officers and soldiers ended in failure.

The successive defeats and the loss of the city and land made the emperor and the court lose face.

At this time, Li Yunze's victory on the southeast coast was very important for boosting morale and maintaining face.

Not to mention, Li Yunze also opened up a rich source of wealth for the emperor.

Li Yunze, who often reads Di Bao, scoffs at those defeats.

It's not that the soldiers and horses of the Great Zhou Dynasty can't fight, but the premise is that you have to give people enough money and food and military resources.

The perennial arrears of military salaries, the civilian officials drifting everywhere, the empty salaries of the military generals are deducted, and the military funds are even more sophisticated on the surface, but in fact they are all garbage, not to mention, even the garbage is insufficient.

The sergeants don't talk about fighting, they can't get enough to eat. Who gave you your life?

In this case, even Wei Huolai led the troops and couldn't win.

The soldiers and horses of the current Great Zhou Dynasty are very similar to the Ming army at the end of the Ming Dynasty.

No one can beat them without pay for the soldiers and horses, and no one can beat them with enough pay for the soldiers and horses.

The greeting ceremony goes through the process, and the Ministry of Etiquette has already arranged it properly in this regard, and everyone is playing their respective roles.

However, an incident happened during this period, which made everyone look sideways.

It is rare to have an emperor who is in a good mood, and when he sees Li Yunze's soldiers, horses, vests, and stomachs, they are still neatly lined up under the scorching sun.

Such a strong army made him feel very good, standing on the royal car and shouting to the soldiers of the army, "The weather is hot, the soldiers take off their armor to escape the heat~~~"

The voice was very loud, and the surrounding civil and military officials and most of the sergeants could hear it.

But an embarrassing scene appeared for the emperor, the soldiers who were standing under the scorching sun wearing armor stomachs heard the emperor's order and did not move!

When the expressions of the officials were different, Li Yunze turned around and greeted him very calmly, "Unload your armor." โ€

'Boom~~~' The soldiers of the army took off their armor stomach in the call of the generals to "the general has an order, take off the armor".

The emperor's face was extremely ugly!

In fact, this is very easy to understand, the emperor and the imperial court only give the soldiers 30% of the salary, and often arrears and deductions, the grain sent down is basically old grain, the cloth is insects and rats, and the salt is mixed with a lot of sediment official salt. ....The soldiers can now feed their families in full, and they can also be fed, clothed, and often rewarded, relying on the money paid by the lord Li Yunze.

They are all very simple and good children.

Eating Li Yunze's food, wearing Li Yunze's clothes, and taking Li Yunze's money, naturally listen to Li Yunze's words and be Li Yunze's knife!

When going through the follow-up process, the emperor had a black face the whole time.

He didn't think about why the soldiers didn't listen to the emperor, but to Li Yunze.

He just wants to kill Li Yunze!

If he can't do it now, then he can't be given a chance to expand his power in the army.

The grand triumphal ceremony finally made a tiger and snake.

After returning to the city in a hurry, the originally planned palace banquet was also canceled because the emperor was unwell.

Li Yunze didn't care about this at all, and he took his guards back to Jiafu.

This time, everyone in Jiafu finally learned to be obedient.

The middle door was wide open, and Jia's mother led everyone out to greet her.

Wang Xifeng, who eats and sleeps well and is in a good mood, is obviously fat.

Seeing that the old lady with a tense face didn't speak, she simply stepped forward and shouted, "Welcome the head of the family back to the house~~~"

Everyone had no choice but to salute and shout.

Because of the uneven heart, shouting is also sparse and unimposing.

Li Yunze, who was on horseback, saw Mrs. Wang in the crowd and immediately frowned.

Seeing this scene, Jia Zheng hurriedly stepped forward and handed over his hand, "Brother Lian, your aunt has already known her mistake, please forgive me." โ€

Li Yunze didn't speak, and after being silent for a moment, he asked, "The eldest master..."

"The eldest brother has a big life, and the imperial doctor has saved him with his life. It's just that I've been unconscious and can only lie on the bed. Jia Zheng sighed again and again, "As for Brother Rong, there is a division to ask for the autumn queen." โ€

Li Yunze, who was pretending, raised his hand to wipe the tears that did not exist in the corners of his eyes, but what he thought in his heart was 'Jia Rong's waste, the plan of killing two birds with one stone, was made into a half-bird by you, what a useless waste!'" โ€™

He waved his hand, and Jia Mang led people forward and set up two halberds in front of the gate of Jiafu.

This is a halberd that symbolizes the identity of the samurai, and the halberd as the door represents the return of the Jia family to the ranks of the samurai.

Li Yunze turned over and dismounted, strode forward with his head held high, and entered the house from the middle gate.

He first went to the East Road Courtyard, apparently to visit Jia Yu, but in fact to confirm whether Jia Yu really couldn't wake up.

After a little performance, he told Xing's family, who was no longer majestic because Jia Yu had become a vegetative person, to take care of the nonsense of the eldest master, and then left.

After discussing with Jia Zheng and others, a family banquet was set up in the evening to catch the wind and wash the dust, and then turned around and went to Ningguo Mansion on the sandwich road.

"Why didn't you see Baoyu come out to greet you?" On the way, Li Yunze asked Sister Feng, "Aren't you taking Qiao with me?" โ€

Hearing Li Yunze mention this name, Sister Feng'er's face showed disgust, "Don't mention him, it's really disgusting." โ€

"How?" Li Yunze raised his eyebrows slightly, thinking thoughtfully, "What's wrong." โ€

"He's disgusting if he doesn't study well all day long, and he mixes with some singing guys."

Sister Feng gloated and said, "He got close to those singers in the Zhongshun Palace, and the prince personally came to complain, and the second master fainted angrily." โ€

Raised his handkerchief to cover his mouth and giggled, "When I woke up, I beat Baoyu hard, if it wasn't for the old lady forcing her to die, I would have to be beaten to death." Now, I'm still lying on the collapse to recuperate, where can I still get up. โ€

Li Yunze held back a smile, and his heart was already clear.

Instead of letting Dabao face scourge those poor girls, it is better to abolish him and let me come!

"Husband~~~" Wang Xifeng, who was holding his arm, had silky eyes, "I don't care about anything else, but the first one today must be me!" โ€

Speaking of which, this walk is more than a year.

Li Yunze can also occasionally go to the modern world to talk about his life ideals with his younger sister to make money and spend his sister.

But Sister Feng'er's side, then she can only endure it.

Now that the Ruyi Golden Hoop Stick is back, can you still bear it?

Turning his head to look at Sister Feng'er, who was about to burst into fire in her big eyes, Li Yunze Jill shook and muttered.

"Depending on your current state, I'm afraid one time is not enough.".
