The military fleet waited in Malacca until February 1658, when the southeastern monsoon blew on the sea, and the fleet set sail and arrived in Guangzhou in March.

Neither the conflict with Tsarist Russia nor Jungel could be resolved in a short time.

Inconvenient transportation and difficulty in replenishing food and ordnance, the military operations of Ganchao were restricted.

Over the years, even if the Central Plains imperial court controlled the Western Regions, its troops stationed were limited. Most of the time, it used diplomacy to leverage small countries in the Western Regions and supplemented with the Central Plains army to rule.

Now Junggar controls the north and south of the Tianshan Mountains and forms a powerful Khanate. There are no small countries in the Western Regions that can unite, so there is only a large-scale conquest.

The land in the Western Regions not only needs to be defeated, but also needs to be studied how to defend and manage it. For Ganchao, it takes time to prepare and consider it, so Gao Huan is not in a hurry.

Guangzhou, as one of the starting points of the Maritime Silk Road, has a large number of ships in the harbor and the city's economy is prosperous.

At this time, on the deck of the battleship, Gao Huan looked at Guangzhou in the distance, "Oh! I haven't been back for nearly a year in a flash."

Xia Wanchun smiled and said, "Your Majesty, will you go back to Nanjing by land or by sea?"

After Gao Huan returned to Malacca first, Xia Wanchun stayed in Kolkata to deal with the follow-up matters.

After signing a treaty with the Mughal Empire, tens of thousands of Mughal prisoners in Malacca, together with their equipment, were sent back to Bangladesh by the fleet, giving Shahshuja the ability to protect himself.

Xia Wanchun helped Shahshuja again and formed an army, leaving behind a group of military advisers, leaving a thousand troops in Kolgoda, and then led the remaining troops to withdraw from Bangladesh.

After the withdrawal of the coalition forces, the Mughal Empire was peaceful on the surface, but in fact it was already in a state of division.

Shahshuja, who was supported by the Gan Dynasty, ruled by Bengal, the British, Dalaxuko, ruled by the lower reaches of the Indus River, and the French supported Bahshush's ruled by the Deccan Plateau.

Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb was already facing a split empire.

Gao Huan stared at Guangzhou and pondered for a while, "It's better to go by land!"

Xia Wanchun felt a little nervous. He knew that His Majesty the Emperor had left for a year and wanted to see if his ministers had taken the opportunity to commit favoritism and fraud, and were passive and negligent.

The last time in the White Dragon Fish Suit, the Jiangnan Group suffered a heavy blow, and the boss Zhou Yanru stepped down. I don’t know who is going to be unlucky this time.

Every time His Majesty goes out, he comes back and he will be in a white dragon fish suit, which is a bit like fishing and law enforcement.

However, if you take land, you must have entered Huguang from Guangdong and Guangxi or passed Ganzhou and Jiangxi. Neither of these places are the sphere of influence of the Jiangnan system, so it is also his fault for the Chu Party.

The last time the Jiangnan faction was unlucky, it was because Du Yinxi stabbed the knife in the back and killed Zhou Yanru, the second-ranked leader in the Council and Gao Hongtu, the third-ranked leader in the Council. Du Yinxi climbed directly from fourth place to second place.

Li Yan has been working for almost ten years. Even if His Majesty the Emperor trusts Li Yan, it is impossible for a faction to be in charge of the central government for another ten years. Therefore, at the next National Congress, Li Yan will most likely be placed in the local area as a magistrate, and Du Yinxi will take over as the position of leading the political affairs.

Although Xia Wanchun believed that the Jiangnan clan was indeed too overdoing and too bureaucratic, the Jiangnan clan was supposed to be in power but was replaced by the Chu party, which made him feel uncomfortable.

Xia Wanchun smiled slightly, "Then I will make arrangements!"

Gao Huan was in a heavy mood, hoping that the officials would not let him down, fearing that he would encounter any problems.

The fleet stopped at the wharf, and Ding Qirui, the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, came to pay a visit immediately after receiving the news.

Gao Huan didn't want to disturb the place at first, but he and Ding Qirui were considered old friends, so he finally decided to summon him on the deck.

The two met and greeted each other. Gao Huan praised Ding Qirui's political achievements in Guangdong and Guangxi, and told him that Guangzhou was an important starting point of the Maritime Silk Road, and asked him to actively develop Guangzhou's business and build Guangdong and Guangxi into an economically strong province.

Gao Huan said that if Guangzhou is well built, he will return to the central government in two years.

After some exchange, Ding Qirui invited Gao Huan to the city to rest, but Gao Huan politely refused.

That night, Gao Huan notified the Guoan Department, and took his confidant and guards to the shore and leave Guangzhou, heading north.

The fleet set sail and left Guangzhou early in the morning.

Gao Huan passed through the prefecture and discovered some minor problems, but generally, no serious incidents occurred.

In South China, after land was established, people had land to cultivate, but the business was not developed enough, the gap between the rich and the poor was not large, and there was no particularly sharp social contradiction.

In May, Gao Huan and his party arrived in Chenzhou, Hunan, just in time for the people to go to the market.

Gao Huan also joined in the fun and experienced the people of Hunan.

Outside Chenzhou City, the road became lively, with hundreds of large trucks parked on both sides, and stalls made of wooden boards.

Xiangxi is mountainous and has inconvenient transportation. It is very difficult for people to go down the mountain once, so it is a fixed day every month to open a market outside the city to facilitate trading.

Gao Huan stood in the market, watching the Han Miao people trading, listening to the shouts, shouts, and bargaining, and feeling that the market was very lively.

This made Gao Huan very satisfied. As the emperor, he liked this scene full of life.

He fought all year round, and what he wanted was the people to live and work in peace and prosperity.

The current scene is a picture of peace and prosperity.

At this time, a loud noise came from the market. A Miao civilian shouted in stiff Chinese: "Why do other villages collect it at a silver dollar, but our village only gives half the price!"

Gao Huan frowned and saw that there were many people huddling around him. He also walked over and saw a Han businessman who confronted several Miao people.

The fat businessman looked arrogant and said, "I opened the stall. I will charge the price of the price I want to charge! If you don't want to sell it, I won't force it. But I'll say that, if you don't sell it at this price, I will come to me later and I will give you a hundred dollars less!"

After hearing this, the Miao people led by Miao people's chests were undulating, but the few people behind them started to cry.

Gao Huan couldn't understand Miao language and couldn't help asking, "What's going on?"

An old scholar next to him heard Gao Huan's words and knew that he was a foreigner, so he shook his head and explained: "These are Miao people deep in Xuefeng Mountain. After walking down the mountain for more than 100 miles, people were exhausted to death, let alone carrying mountain goods. Those unscrupulous merchants were sure of these Miao people and could not resist the goods back to the copycat, so they deliberately suppressed their prices. For the same mountain goods, the nearby villages are at the same price, and the far ones are at the same price!"

When Gao Huan heard this, he immediately understood that merchants took advantage of the Miao villages to be inconvenient and needed to obtain necessary daily necessities from the Han area, so he took the opportunity to squeeze the Miao people.

Gao Huan was a little unhappy inside, but the businessman essentially wanted to make money and to get the maximum profit. Gao Huan could not directly interfere, so he could only say calmly: "Mr. Xie has advice!"
