I’m The King Chapter 831: : Sunrise East (56)
Jishi City, the political and economic center of Zhengdong Mansion, is busy and orderly, running at high speed. With less than 20,000 troops struggling to support it, the new regime did not fall into a panic because of this. The officials and messengers who worked in the various yamen handled their official duties almost without touching the ground. Walking in a hurry, even if you meet friends and acquaintances, you just wave your hands, smile at each other, and rush to your own affairs
Everyone is busy
But in the entire Jishi City, it is calm. This is based on the fact that the East Conquest Army has been invincible in foreign wars over the years. The once powerful Donghu regime collapsed under the attack of the East Conquest Army. Although the final news of Gao Yuan's personal conquest of Donghu has not come back, everyone believes that Donghu will one day soon, with the arrival of the messenger of victory, become a mark in the long river of history. Man, how long can they be proud? Didn't you see that the Eastern Expedition Army now has less than 20,000 troops, and they have dragged the Qi Army, which is several times larger than their own, into the quagmire of Langya?
Squads of grassroots militiamen gathered here from all directions in Jishi County, and at the same time, Hejian County and Liaoxi County were doing the same thing. The powerful reserve force, Hejian, and Liaoxi have assembled a considerable number of militiamen. These people, if they change into military uniforms in the county, can compare with the general standing army in the United States
Different from other countries on this continent like Fangchuan, Dongfu is conquered and the people are allowed to bring their own weapons, bows and arrows. Except for the ban on heavy weapons such as heavy crossbows among the people, everything else is allowed to be left alone. This has created a good martial arts style in the entire area. Once something happens, an order will be issued. The young and strong will be able to prepare their own weapons and go to the designated place to gather
Thanks to the blessings of God, the rain has been smooth in recent years, and the Zhengdong Mansion also overhauls water conservancy, roads, and the granary is full every year. Every time an army is assembled, it will continue to march towards the west of Liaoning. Although the army has not yet returned, everyone in Zhengdong Mansion believes that it will be before the army returns. They can completely resist the enemy's invasion, and when the army returns, it's time to counterattack
If you eat mine, spit it out, and if you take mine, give it back to me. Of course, you have to pay some interest. This is the only thing in the hearts of all the people in Zhengdong Mansion
All the officials in Zhengdong Mansion are very busy, except for one person, and this person. It is precisely the highest official left behind in the Zhengdong Mansion, discussing the affairs of Jiang Jiaquan
He was accompanying a guest from afar, the emperor teacher of Daqin, the most powerful country in this continent. Li Ru
Jiang Jiaquan and Li Ru came from the same school, but after they graduated from the same school, they parted ways because of their different political ideas and governance ideas. From then on, Li Ru was appreciated by the king of Qin. After staying in Qin State for decades, he implemented his philosophy of governing the country from top to bottom to all aspects of Qin State. Although he has no official position, he has a high status, but Jiang Jiaquan is poor in Yuyang, living under a county guard, being an unappreciated master, eating and waiting to die, and staying for decades
But in less than ten years, this huge gap in life has undergone a fundamental change. Jiang Jiaquan has found his own stage. Killing all directions, even his suzerain, Dayan, is now trembling under the soldiers of Zhengdong Mansion. The strength of Zhengdong Mansion cannot but attract the attention of Qin people who are determined to rule the world
You know, how much effort and price the Qin people spent before they wiped out the enemies in the backyard. Even so, the Qin people failed to pull the Huns into their arms. Building the city of Shannan County and shutting out the Huns' rangers, this strategic decision finally achieved the Zhengdong Mansion. Gao Yuan took the Huns into his arms with little effort, and since then established An iron cavalry that can rival Donghu's beauty, swept across the east and raided Shannan County, won the city of Shannan County, and directly threatened the backyard of the Qin people. Now, Zhengdong Mansion's defeat of Donghu is already in sight. Whether the army will enter the Qin State from Shannan County City, threaten the backyard of the Qin people, and make the Qin people no longer have the peace of mind to sweep the world, it has become a concern of the Qin people from top to bottom. Shicheng and his party
He came here to find out the next move of Zhengdong Mansion, and secondly, he also wanted to see how a small soldier back then developed into such a thing in less than ten years. A colossal
Two old men, both over 120 years old, dressed in plain clothes, walked slowly on the wide road outside Jishi City. She is pampered and treated well, even if she travels around the world, she still has a lot of servants and servants. She has never suffered any hardships and is well maintained. She looks much younger than Jiang Jiaquan
The Chi Road was built extremely wide. Firstly, the foundation was made of Sanhe soil, and then gravel was laid on top of it. Finally, a horse dragged a heavy stone roller to press it evenly. It was raining heavily, but this road was not muddy at all. Walking on it, it was refreshing. Just this endless road, in Xianyang, the capital of the Qin people, is also invisible. Xianyang is only in some places in the city. The main road is paved with stone slabs, and some other places are muddy when it rains, let alone outside the city
The outside of Jishi City is so particular, let alone the inside of the city. Li Ru has not arrived in Jishi City for a few days, but he is already secretly shocked. As a policy maker of a country, of course he knows very well that the How much manpower, material and financial resources are needed to build a city like this, even with the strength of the Qin State, it is still unable to complete such a project, how did the small Zhengdong Mansion do it?
He can ask Jiang Jiaquan, but his self-esteem does not allow him to do so. What's more, even if he asks, the other party may not answer him sincerely. Confident Li Ru believes that as long as he stays here for a while, he can rely on With my own wisdom, I can naturally crack them one by one
The thickest small trees on both sides of the road are no bigger than the mouth of a bowl. More and more people are coming, gradually diverting the crowded crowd on the main road
Jiang Jiaquan was extremely happy in his heart, and even more proud. Over the years, even when he was the most impoverished, he never thought of asking his senior brother who had made a fortune in the past for help, because in his opinion, the different ideas of governing the country have already Let the two no longer have any common language at all. I thought I was doomed, but in the last few years of my life, a big reversal came. To put it in a plain language, it is a typical blink of an eye, and my mother The chicken turned into a duck, the real salted fish turned around, the senior brother who was once aloof, now comes to visit me in Jishi City, this in itself is an affirmation of myself
Yes, Jiang Jiaquan feels that he has the right to proudly look at the people coming and going with satisfied smiles on Chidao, looking at the wide road and the endless grain fields, this is the real Xanadu.
"This year will be another bumper harvest year!" Jiang Jiaquan walked out of the road, squatted on the ridge of the field, stroked the heavy ears of wheat, and said with a smile, "The granary is still full until now, but now I am worried New grains are on the market, what should we do with the old grains?"
Li Ru frowned slightly, "Junior brother, the gentleman is far away from the kitchen, your appearance is really insulting to the gentleman." He could hear the triumph in Jiang Jiaquan's words, and felt a little unhappy
Jiang Jiaquan stood up with a smile, "Brother, I can't compare to you, but in our Zhengdong Mansion, we don't take this as an insult, even our high governor, he rolled up his sleeves himself during the inspection , Swing the sickle and reap together with the people!"
Li Ru sneered, but it was just an act of buying people's hearts. In Daqin, during the spring plowing every year, King Wulie of Qin led all the civil and military officials to dig the soil and waved the sickle.
Looking at Li Ru's appearance, Jiang Jiaquan knew that he didn't believe him, so he was too lazy to explain. He stood up with a smile.
"Since there is so much food, I wonder if our country of Qin can buy some from Zhengdong Mansion?" He asked tentatively.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Jiaquan laughed loudly, "As long as the people of the Qin Kingdom give real gold and silver, we will of course sell it. The new grain will be put into the warehouse, and the old grain will naturally have to be disposed of, but senior brother, we will not compromise the price." .”
"Old grain cannot be priced the same as new grain!" said Li Rudao.
Jiang Jiaquan smiled cunningly, "As far as I know, a large piece of land to the west of Qin State suffered a natural disaster today, and the domestic grain production dropped sharply. If Qin State hadn't destroyed South Korea two years ago, now it has occupied a large area of Wei State's land I'm afraid that this year will be difficult to survive. Even so, the court of Qin State is also very worried about this? Lu Chao's offensive in Wei State is gradually slowing down, and Li Xin is also in Hanguan Valley. It has nothing to do with it? You want food, we have food, you need food, but we don't care, even if it rots there, we can feed pigs, cows, and sheep. Senior brother also knows that we don't have much else here. There are so many livestock!"
Li Ru's face turned blue when he heard that, "Naturally, there will be special people to discuss these specific matters with you, as long as you agree to sell them, it will be fine, junior brother, you don't need to worry about such things, right?"
Jiang Jiaquan chuckled, "Naturally, naturally!" He thought that your people would go down and talk to the people in the Ministry of Household Affairs, and they would be beaten to the bone by Wang Wuyi. (To be continued)
