The impact of the emergence of the scholastic family was not great, and the nascent scholastic family was still very weak. It will take at least a few decades of development for the scholarly families to show their power.

Wang Ze continued to inspect the world, and then raided the homes of a large number of nobles, heroes, and officials who dared to privately mint copper coins, and then prepared to exile them in the Western Regions.

The world is vast, and there are still many people who dare to mint copper coins privately, after all, wealth is moving. The profit from normal minting is about half, and those who mint privately make even more money.

The hustle and bustle of the world is for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit.

Not everyone can resist their greed and not mint copper coins privately. After Wang Ze dealt with the affairs of Handan, he went to Jicheng, which is close to Liaodong, and those who were exiled from Jicheng were directly assigned to Liaodong.

Don't think it's good to send Liaodong, although Liaodong is only a few hundred miles away from Jicheng, but Liaodong is colder than Jicheng.

In addition to the fact that there is no drought and no desert in Liaodong, the environment is worse than that of the Western Regions. In this era, the river course of the Liao River basin was chaotic, forming a vast swamp, Liaoze. It is full of mosquitoes and is extremely unfriendly to humans.

When the first emperor divided the title of King Yan, it has been decades now, and there are only four or five hundred thousand cadres here.

Fortunately, Daqian was strong and strong, defeated the Xiongnu, shocked those Donghu, and made them dare not make mistakes, plus the strength of Yan is not weak, otherwise Yan will have to fight with those Donghu here a few times a year.

Wang Jing exiled the nobles and powerful officials of Jicheng to Yan State in order to increase the strength of Yan State.

The Yan Kingdom has also been actively developing over the years, capturing a large number of Beidi Zahu, these women have been rewarded to soldiers as wives and concubines, and men have been sent to build the embankment of the Liao River.

In order to solve the problem of the flooding of the Liao River, Yan has been managing the Liao River for many years. By excavating river silt and building river embankments, the Liaohe River will be connected and introduced into the sea.

The tributaries of the Liao River were also trimmed and finally poured into the course of the Liao River to flow into the sea. At the same time, ditches were also built to divert water from the Liao River to irrigate farmland.

The governance of the Liao River requires a lot of manpower and material resources, and the governance of the Yan State for decades has been quite effective, and the number of floods of the Liao River has been significantly reduced. After the water of the Liao River was diverted into the ditch or the sea, the water source into the Liao River also decreased.

It's just that it is still extremely difficult to manage this swamp within a radius of hundreds of miles.

Because the swamp is difficult to walk, Daqian needs to go to the north to go to Yan Kingdom, through a mountain pass, although the swamp can also pass, but once it is blocked, it is very dangerous. Therefore, in order to contact with the Yan Kingdom, Daqian Liaodong built sea ships and went to Yan through sea ships.

It's just that the current navigation technology is backward, and the danger of navigating at sea is also quite high.

Wang Jing exiled the 30,000 Haoqiang and big households of Jidi to Liaodong, and then went to Jinyang, Guanzhong, Bashu and other places.

After spending two years, the imperial court finally sorted out the world, and all the nobles, heroes, and officials who dared to privately mint copper coins were solved by the imperial court like a storm sweeping away leaves. The entire Great Cadre combed through, and at least 300,000 people were exiled to the Western Regions.

A large number of nobles, heroes, and big families were exiled to the Western Regions, and on the Hexi Corridor in the Western Regions, they were pedestrians who could not see the edge at a glance.

A large number of people entered Dunhuang through the Hexi Corridor and were then exiled to Tingzhou, Qiuci, Shule and other places.

After completing the combing of the world, Wang Jing divided the fourth prince Wang Ze and the fifth prince Wang Yu as the king of Zhao and Tang, and also divided them into the Western Regions, and the two of them were in the northern Xinjiang.

Because of the division of the state, Wang Jing prepared 3,000 elite cavalry and 3,000 expeditionary athletes for each of them, and the family members of the 3,000 elite cavalry were more than 10,000 people, almost about 20,000 each, and then went to the Western Regions to seal the country together.

As for the nobles, heroes, and big families who were assigned to the Western Regions, they were one and a half people. The two feudal states each numbered about 200,000 people.

With such a large population, when the time comes, if you conquer some northern Zahu or Western Regions people, plus the support of the Western Regions Protectorate, Zheng Guo and Wei State, you will soon be able to gain a firm foothold.

Northern Xinjiang has a vast territory, unlike southern Xinjiang, except for the Tianshan Mountains, Kunlun Mountains, and oases formed by the meltwater of snow-capped mountains near the Green Mountains, almost all of them are Hanhai Desert.

Although northern Xinjiang is also arid, there are more grasslands, and there are also large countries such as Wusun State. With a population of one million and more than 100,000 people, it is the largest country in the Western Regions.

Zheng had always been friendly with Wusun in order to prevent them from uniting with the Huns, or sending troops when he went out to fight.

In order to befriend the Wusun Kingdom, he and Wang Bo sent a large number of caravans to do business with the Wusun Kingdom. Silk, lacquerware, and iron pots from the Central Plains were very popular in the Usun Kingdom.

And Daqian also exchanged a lot of war horses, leather, and so on from Wusun Kingdom. While making friends with Wusun Guo, Zheng Guo also sent many caravans and spies to the west to investigate.

Rewind the clock to a year.

The thirty-first year of the Mandate of Heaven, March, the Western Regions, the northwest of the Green Mountains.

Chen Shuo tightened the sheepskin jacket on his body, feeling that it was still a little leaky, so he tightened the sheepskin jacket on his body with his belt, and stuffed some withered yellow hay into the leather jacket.

Then he untied the skin around his waist, opened the skin and poured a sip of spirits, the cold wine entered his stomach, and soon a warmth rose up, making his body felt some warmth blown by the cold wind.

Chen Shuo carefully took out a cloth bag from his chest, and when he opened it, there were several pieces of dried meat that were as dry as tree bark. Picking up the hard jerky, Chen Shuo stuffed it directly into his mouth.

The hard jerky carries some residual heat from body temperature, and it is unusually tough in the mouth, and it is as tough as leather when chewed. Chen Shuo carefully moistened it with saliva and chewed it vigorously. Gradually, the salt in the jerky and some meaty flavors slowly spread in the mouth, and finally it was swallowed into the stomach.

After a long time, Chen Shuo walked out from behind a stone, and then he put the hemp rope on his back on his back on the two large wooden planks. The plank looks like a pair of sleds.

At the beginning of March, the green ridge was bitterly cold, and the lowest could reach more than ten degrees below zero, and basically no one would go over the green ridge at this time.

Chen Shuo, Guo Xing and the others ventured over the Green Ridge to return to Tingzhou.

From Tingzhou, follow the northern foothills of the Tianshan Mountains, all the way west, through the Ili River Valley, to Broken Leaf City. At this time, the city of Broken Leaves is not large, but the environment here is very good, there are a large number of miscellaneous people living there, and the small plain is cut very messy by the plain leaf water.

The whole small plain looks as messy as a leaf, so this place is also called the city of broken leaves by Zheng Guo.

When Zheng Guo saw this land, he felt that this place, like the Ili River Valley, was a rare and good place in the Western Regions, and in addition, it was located on a key road, so he was very enthusiastic about this area.
