Chapter 192: You've Started Doing It

"Well, that's a problem, but don't let Yang Jiang do it for the time being."

Ye Yu nodded, the army was the last thing he wanted to move.

After all, as long as the military heart is on his head, it will do.

Weapons and equipment are already being studied, and that's enough.

Any army is built on logistics and the strength of the country as a whole.

If the Southern Dynasty does not have strength, no matter how strong the cohesion of the army is, no matter how strong the combat effectiveness is, and no matter how many people there are, it is just the end of the strong crossbow.

His focus now is on the lives of the people and the entire process of industrialization.

The distance from the capital to the deserted city is a large plain, which is ideal for large-scale machine farming.

In addition, there are mountains and rivers, and you can engage in a variety of agricultural activities.

His idea was to place a large number of factories in the West Hill State location.

On the one hand, if you remove a part of the mountains and have a lot of resources, on the other hand, if someone comes in and raids, or if the Jia Dynasty suddenly attacks you and is caught off guard, you can rely on the heavy industry of Xishan Prefecture to fight back.

Ye Yu believed that with the technique of the musket, Ye Lie should not want to attack in a short time.

Because the cost of making a musket was significant, and not only a large number of craftsmen were required, but also a large amount of iron and copper ore.

Of course, in my own vision, I also need to have better steel.

A lot of steel can support itself in reforming the army.

The army in front of you, as long as there are two regiments of Yang Jiang, will never collapse!

This is also one of Ye Yu's purposes.

His army, Ye Lie cannot be copied.

Unless he learns to run his own industry.

But even if you engage in industry, it will still collapse.

Because what Ye Yu has in his mind is a whole system, from industry to economy to education.

"Okay, you go back first, you must do a good job of intelligence work on the border, and after it is stable, you will go back to the secret guard yamen to report."

Ye Yu spoke, "Remember that during this time, it is best not to let any spies infiltrate, whether it is Ye Lie or other vassal kings. ”

In fact, there is one piece of the puzzle left in my head - the port.

It has been proven from ancient times to the present that if the army is strong, it can conquer only one area, but if the navy is strong, it can protect itself from the sea.

"Your Highness, then I'll go first."

Zhang Xingbang nodded and evacuated with the people first.

Ye Yu shook his head, he couldn't think of anything more.

At least not yet, there are still a lot of things to do in the capital.

Propaganda, industrialization, but also all sorts of road and agricultural issues.

Especially the future construction of Xishan State.

Sun Guowang only built a city wall from the deserted city to the northwest border of Xishan Prefecture to defend against foreign enemies according to his own requirements.

But no matter how you defend yourself, you need to be strong.

Heading south, they finally arrived near the capital after a few days.

At this point, the road becomes quite smooth.

"Stop!"

The checkpoint set up by Ye Yu himself stopped himself.

The main thing is not to check, but to change equipment.

This is also the rule I set before.

The only way to enter the capital is that all carriages need to be covered with a solid layer of rubber over wooden wheels.

"Everyone, when you enter the capital, you need to change the wheels, and you need to change the wheels for a car or two."

The man who stopped them said, "The main thing is the labor cost of our subordinates to change the wheels. ”

This was also set up by Ye Yu before.

"Okay."

Ye Yu opened the curtain and nodded.

At this moment, someone discovered Ye Yu.

"See Your Highness!"

In an instant, not only the people around who were changing wheels, but even the common people and the businessmen passing by all stopped the car and knelt in front of Ye Yu.

"Get up, all of you."

Ye Yu got out of the car and smiled, "It's not a big deal, it's just a change of wheel." ”

"No, we don't charge money for your Highness's wheels."

The tire changer knelt and spoke.

They know very well that it is because of His Royal Highness that they have a job.

It is precisely because of this series of operations of His Royal Highness the Prince that the roads in the entire capital are quite smooth!

"Take it, I said."

Ye Yu opened his mouth and said, "I am no exception, a total of eight cars, eight taels of silver." Your money is all earned on your own, and I can't deduct it. ”

As he spoke, Ye Yu ordered the secret guards to give the money.

They then modified the tires and put on new wheels and the car moved on.

Fortunately, I said that the money for this part of the solid rubber was paid by the Southern Dynasty, otherwise I would have to pay some more money.

Back in the car, Ye Yu frowned slightly.

He remembered that these things seemed to be in his mind before he left, how could he have already begun to implement them?

Could it be that the rubber in the south is well developed? Resource-sufficient?

He counted the days, starting from himself, it was a few days to the Jia Dynasty, and then going back and forth between Lincheng and Jingshi in the Jia Dynasty, as well as borrowing from other vassal kings......

It's almost two months!

Can you reach this level in just two months?

"So you're already starting to get started?"

Ye Yu smiled and muttered to himself.

After entering the capital, they quickly drove the car into the palace, and the money was delivered to the household.

"A total of 20 million to two, it should be able to solve the next problem."

Back in the study, Ye Yu immediately summoned Zhao Wanjin.

"Your Highness, in the two months since you left, President Gongsun's Bureau of Commerce has done a good job."

Zhao Wanjin reported, "In the past two months, the merchants in the capital have collected more than two million taels in taxes!" ”

"I see, you also did the rubber tire thing?"

Ye Yu asked with a smile.

"Although we don't know how His Highness made the specific arrangements, there is a lot of rubber sent by the secret guards now, so we will implement it within the capital."

Zhao Wanjin explained, "There is also Her Royal Highness Princess Gongsun, who has made some official announcements with the Ministry of Rites, and the people can know about it. ”

"This ...... I'm going to stabilize it first, and you're going to do it first? ”

Ye Yu was overjoyed, and when he thought about it, he knew that there should be the shadow of Gongsun Ce behind him.

Fortunately, when I rescued him and came back, I popularized a lot of things for him. Otherwise, with his outdated management style, the reform will be in a big mess.

"Zhao Wanjin, you happen to be here, go and call Zhou Hao and Kong Yi over."

Gongsun Ling'er took a document and said.

She had been busy doing things, and she didn't realize that Ye Yu had returned.

"Ling'er."

Ye Yu made a sound, and only then did he react to the busy Gongsun Ling'er!

"Ye Yu! You're back? ”

Gongsun Ling'er put the paperwork on the desk and hugged Ye Yu's arms.

"Yes, it's very busy, but I got back 20 million taels, and I shouldn't be short of money during this time."

Ye Yu said and smiled slightly, stroking Gongsun Ling'er's head.

"By the way, your movable type printing is so good."

Gongsun Ling'er spoke, "If it weren't for Mr. Wenzhu remembering what you mentioned, we would be much slower!" ”

"Movable type printing?"

"When will I say ......?"

Ye Yu then remembered that when he was chatting with Mr. Wenzhu and his father about the future, he had mentioned movable type printing.
