Aspirations for Nation and Beauty: Chapter 103 Chaos! chaos! chaos! (1)
But there are some things that you have done and found out that they are not correct, but you have not turned back, Mori Centurion thought a little gloomily, but since the lord has already made a decision, I can only do my best to help the lord to complete it His wish was fulfilled. Thinking of this, Maori Centurion resolutely said: "Master, when are you going to start the plan?"
"Well, I want to implement it as soon as possible. We have fully grasped the information on Kamchatka and Treasure Island. The Tang people have very few troops stationed in these two places. I think we can complete the occupation of these two islands within a week. " Liyuan Shanchuan said in a deep voice: "Mr. Mao Li, is everything ready in the country?"
"My lord, the immigration has been mobilized twice, everything is ready, and the civilian ships are all mobilized in place. It is estimated that 15,000 to 18,000 people can be transported at one time. It is planned to be transported to the pier, our intelligence personnel have also sneaked into the two islands as planned, and the attack and action routes have also undergone many simulation exercises, just waiting for your order."
Although he did not agree with Liyuan Shanchuan's plan, the Maori Centurion has always carried out the tasks assigned by the lord. Before planning to attack Kamchatka and Treasure Island, the two occupied the military The follow-up measures that need to be taken after the two islands have also been discussed many times. The two agreed that a large number of local landless farmers must be relocated to these two places in the shortest possible time to quickly consolidate their rule in these two places. The population of people must exceed the number of local Tang people. Only in this way can we ensure that these two places are firmly controlled by our own side.
"Very good, the time is ripe, it's time for us to pick these two overripe fruits." Nodding in satisfaction, Li Yuan Shanchuan couldn't express his expectation and longing on his face, "Taking Kamchatka and Treasure The island is only the first step in our long journey ahead, we and people must strive for more living land and space for our descendants, and this goal can never be changed.”
"Sell newspapers, sell newspapers, the latest "Imperial News", large-scale drought and poor harvests in the northern grain areas of the empire, some areas have no harvests, and the disaster situation in the north is severe!"
"Come on, come on, "Daily Express". If you want to know the latest grain situation, please read today's "Daily Express". , the Five Lakes region will not be able to supply enough food to the imperial capital and the north this year, for details, please see today's "Daily Express"!"
"Buddhists and Taoists held a dharma meeting to pray for an early end to the drought. Experts commented on the reasons for the abnormal climate in the eastern continent this year, and analyzed the climate trend of next year and the impact on agricultural production next year and countermeasures; Myanmar has once again set off a development boom. The road is progressing rapidly, and Su Minshun, director of the Northwest Construction Department, announced to the outside world that the extension of the Burmese Highway has the hope of connecting the commercial roads in the southern part of the mainland, and all the business affairs of the empire are in the "Business Weekly"! Would you like a copy, sir? One silver coin."

Although it is already midsummer, the weather in the imperial capital is still hot. The flow of Yinlong Spring, which has never been reduced in the imperial palace for a hundred years, seems to have become much smaller. The severe drought has affected the health of the entire imperial capital. Basic life, although the Fan River has not stopped flowing, the water volume of the river section flowing through the imperial capital has dropped by two-thirds compared to normal years. Painted boats also had to choose to dock in some deep river sections, and could not wander around to attract guests as before.
The water use of residents in the city has also been affected to a certain extent. Fortunately, the fan river, the lifeblood of the empire, flows through it, so domestic water can basically be guaranteed. The vicious sun seems to be no different from the previous month. Every day when I wake up, the sun seems to be hanging in the sky, without a cloud, only the golden crow in the sky exudes infinite heat. The weeping willows by the river have long been scorched and turned yellow, and the green willows in the past have also lost their vitality.
The teahouse by the river was full of people who had slipped out of the house due to the heat, waving their fans and waving their sleeves, and some less particular people even showed their naked chests. Feeling a cool breeze, doing anything in this day is a kind of suffering. Only lying by the river with open clothes and holding a teapot with a cow to drink seems to be able to relieve a little of the heat.
"Have you heard? There was a plague in Heshuo, and many people died. Now a large number of refugees are coming to the imperial capital and the south. I heard that the army has come forward to block the passage to the east. Alas, this year It's really unlucky, all kinds of bad things have gathered together." Linjiang Qingmingju is a famous tea house on the bank of the Fanjiang River, the first floor is mostly for individual tourists, or waiting for others to sit, and the second floor is Linjiang. The Jiang lobby is open tens of meters along the river, where the wind from the river blows and the summer heat subsides. Those who go to the third floor are not those who are afraid of spending money. They are either rich or expensive, and idlers cannot go there.
The Linjiang seats in the lobby are already full, and guests in twos and threes all have their own business circles and circles of friends. A low brocade screen and a pot of emerald green bonsai separate the tables from each other without affecting the line of sight. , It can also play a psychological isolation role, killing two birds with one stone.
"Who did you listen to?! If there is a plague, it will be terrible! Remember the plague when we were young? How many people died in the neighborhood? The corpses pulled out by horse-drawn carts every day have to be piled up. Why do these refugees want to go to the imperial capital? Don’t let these people flow into the imperial capital.” After eating, the rat-bearded man closed his folding fan with a clatter, and shouted nervously.
"Hush", looking around, the yellow-faced businessman who started the conversation turned pale with fright, and quickly lowered his head to signal his companion to lower his voice: "Can you stop yelling? I heard it, who knows if it’s true or not? I’m just kindly reminding you not to go to those Goulan courtyards anymore. I heard that the Goulan courtyards now buy some fresh goods from Heshuo. If you get infected with these epidemics , it will only happen after a few days, if you don’t do it well, you will also be infected, then it will be really hard."
"Where are you going to scare me? The people in the Goulan courtyard are not afraid of getting the plague?"
"Hmph, do you know how cheap women are in Heshuo? They are more than half cheaper than ordinary slaves. Would you do it if you were in this business? Besides, not everyone is infected with the plague. Will you choose?" The yellow-faced businessman curled his lips in disdain, and said sarcastically: "But some people are unlucky, and they will meet them as soon as they walk."
His face turned blue, and the rat-whisker merchant's mouth was still stiff: "Then it's a big deal, I just don't go to these places for a while."
"Really? I'm afraid that some people will not be able to bear the temptation. When they hear about that fresh Qing Dynasty man, they can't help but salivate and run away. I heard my sister-in-law say, how many days are you Didn't go home." The yellow-faced businessman unceremoniously revealed the details of his old friend.
"Uh, it's a big deal, I won't go from today on." The rat-whiskered merchant turned his head aside angrily.
"That's what you said, don't blame me for not reminding you, there is no cure for the plague." The yellow-faced businessman was probably very worried about his business partner, and he told him again.
"Didn't it say that the Kamans occupied Heishan and Longquan in the north of Heshuo? Why did the plague break out again?" The rat-bearded man intentionally changed the topic~IndoMTL.com~Hmph, those damned Kamans The people occupied Heishan and Longquan, and I heard that they plundered grain in Heishan and Longquan, and drove the local people. In addition, those local people did not know where they heard that the imperial capital brought in a large amount of relief food from the south of the Yangtze River, and rumored that the five lakes had a good harvest. So these people swarmed to the east and south, and now it is said that Hejian and Jinzhong are also in chaos, and there are refugees everywhere, and they all want to move east to south with those refugees who ran from Longquan Heishan, probably to find a way. To survive, the caravan didn’t dare to go there at all, and the refugees would grab whatever they saw. The Taiping Sect is probably really doomed. Unlike before, they were barely able to pass. Now they can’t control the situation at all. I heard that Lianhe Everywhere in the city was robbed in the same way. The yellow-faced businessman sighed, "My caravan and Zhu Laoer's caravan were also ransacked in Jinzhong City. Fortunately, there was nothing wrong with them, or the family members would have eaten them up." "
"Oh, I think that Heshuo was one of the best places in our empire a few years ago, how did it become like this in just a few years?" To teach people, to bring disaster to the country and the people, to make a good Heshuo into such a situation, our supply of goods will also be cut off, and business will become more and more difficult to do, if this continues, we will only have to beg for food."
"It's not just Heshuo, where is it different now? Didn't you hear that the five lakes were also hit by disasters. Today's "Daily Express" also said that the grain production in five lakes has been greatly reduced. If you can't keep it, you have to turn around. Everyone says Jiangnan is good, isn't Jiangnan also in chaos now, His Royal Highness has entered Jiangnan, Milan people have gone north again, His Royal Highness has also occupied Jinhua, and even the guy who just surrendered to the court is not a bully Do you live in Huzhou? This day is going to be chaotic!" The yellow-faced businessman lamented: "How can we businessmen live?!"
