Wang Mang came quickly and walked faster.

He only stayed in Xinfeng for one afternoon, and then led the Ti cavalrymen overnight, and under the protection of the cavalry who arrived in Xinfeng in advance, he brought the three assassins captured by Zhang Yue back to Chang'an.

However, before leaving, Wang Mang revealed a message to Zhang Yue - the Wu Heng Sagittarius who was captured by him was indeed Li Ling's subordinate.

To be precise, it was Li Ling's deserter who was defeated in the army in Junji Mountain!

Moreover, not only he is a deserter, but almost all the assassins are deserters.

Deserters in previous wars.

This is very interesting.

A deserter is absorbed by someone, and can be explained as accidental.

Eight assassins, deserters from many wars, eventually gathered together.

If there are no ghosts here, who believes it?

The only Taiyuan Bai family is just a powerful man in a place. No matter how capable it is, it is impossible to achieve this level.

Not to mention, the deserter Wu Heng was holding a big yellow crossbow!

At that time, Zhou Yafu's son was just to save some underworld weapons for Zhou Yafu to be buried after his death, and secretly created five hundred armor weapons for burial, so he put Zhou Yafu in prison.

The sensitivity and danger of this yellow crossbow are more than ten thousand times that of those with no practical use and are purely good-looking underworld weapons.

Not to mention, with such dangerous goods, he openly entered Guanzhong and appeared in Xinfeng, which was so close to Chang'an.

This shows...

The traitors lurking in Guanzhong are probably very capable, and there are many!

Otherwise, how could such a thing happen?

Wang Mang was very excited, while Zhang Yue was worried.

But he had no choice and had no ability to intervene.

This matter is no longer a matter that he can interfere with and interfere with.

After Wang Mang left, Xinfeng returned to peace.

Soon, the day for the civil service exam has arrived.

…………………………

It was already 18th day in the summer of the first year of Yanhe, and it was ten days after Zhang Yue took office.

The first public examination in Xinfeng County to recruit officials was officially kicked off.

Early in the morning, the entire Xinfeng City was occupied by young people from all over the county, even Lin County, and even Chang'an and their parents.

After the assassin incident, all the landlords, scholars and nobles in Guanzhong have already confirmed a fact--the new Xinfeng Order and the Shizhong Officer Zhang Zizhong are indeed a star of hope that is promising and radiant, worthy of following and investing!

Sooner or later, he will definitely be on the battlefield.

The upper limit may be Changping Liehou, or more likely to be the champion Jing Henghou.

Relying on supreme martial arts and invincible military achievements, he pioneered and established his own era and established his military aristocratic group.

Just like the Weihuo military aristocratic group, it looks down on the world, roams all over the world, and is invincible in the world.

And ultimately influence and determine the major national policies.

Even the lower limit is still a new Haixi Hou.

At least it can create a new war frenzy, just like Haixihou launching the Dayuan War, leading thousands and tens of thousands of people to glory and wealth.

Such golden thighs are rare in a century.

Maybe the top three ministers and nine ministers and relatives of the foreign marquis should be more cautious and reserved.

The people below don't have so many concerns.

Especially the scholars, nobles and merchants of the middle and lower classes came almost at the news.

In just a few days, the number of applicants for the public examination has increased from only 300 to 1,000. Before yesterday's registration date, the number of applicants even rose to 1,457!

The applicants from Xinfeng have even dropped to less than 30% of the total number.

But there are only fifty-four jobs left for so many applicants.

The highest one is just a 400-stone Xinfeng Cao Ring.

The lowest position is even just a fighting official who is responsible for handling documents, which is the so-called temporary worker.

That is to say, an average of thirty people compete for one position.

If you change to another place, at other times.

I'm afraid that many famous scholars would slap their heads, shouting that they were insulting their ethics, and then leave - what do you think of us scholars as? Hawkers selling on the streets? Or are merchants who are competing in the market?

ah?

Do you want to get through anymore?

Are you shameless?

But in Xinfeng City, most young people and his parents were full of excitement, ready to try.

A Changping Hou who can survive in the future, the champion Hou, at least it is also an opportunity for Haixi Hou to stay with him?

This is the real ladder to heaven!

only……

Many people looked around and found that there were too many competitors.

Especially the powerful nobles who were locally native to Xinfeng were now furious.

Looking at the people from Huxian, Nanling and even Chang'an, their eyes were about to burst into flames.

This is a grand event for my Xinfeng to select officials, not what you are waiting for!

Why do you guys come and rob?

However, they had no good idea.

Those who come from Linxian and Chang'an are not vegetarians.

Moreover, the powerful people in Xinfeng were also afraid that they would cause trouble and would lead to suppression.

So, I can only watch.

At most, I would like to complain to those outsiders to show off their faces.

A few merchants in Xinfeng City instantly seemed to have arrived in heaven.

The influx of a large population makes their products and goods almost worry about sales.

Thousands of scholars who applied for the exam, parents and followers who were several times more than that, immediately bought out the entire Xinfeng.

Grain, cloth, oil and salt, inkstone, ink and bamboo slips...

Almost all the products were sold out.

Businessmen make money and get cramps in their hands.

Cute little money filled their money cabinet.

And those guys who had left for fear or other reasons before Zhang Yue took office now have regretted their intestines.

I had known that this new county master was so promising.

So……

Even if they die, they will not give up.

Now, I gave up on my own initiative and gave the hot spots to others.

………………………………

Zhang Yue was immersed in wealth at this moment.

Three thousand golden cakes were filled with dense crowds of his sight.

"Teacher, this is sent by my father's disciples..." Yuan Chang said happily beside him: "My father said that after discussing the 80 million bonds required by the Shizhong and many great merchants and charity merchants in Guanzhong, everyone is willing to buy them... At most one month, the 80 million funds can be received!"

The bond sales were simply smooth and beyond imagination.

After hearing that Xinfeng tax was used as collateral, the great merchants in Guanzhong all came to the scene.

Some people even need interest but invest.

Because Xinfeng is Changsun’s fief and the territory of “Zhang Chiyou”, the Liu family is in other places, and perhaps the grass is scattered.

But in terms of debt issues, it has a very high reputation!

The country owes money, and always borrows it and will pay it back!

Not to mention, even if you take out the money and buy a ticket that can get the chance to get on the Changsun Ship, it is worth it.

This kind of opportunity is not easy to encounter.

Now, this batch of bonds not only stipulates the repayment period, but also has interest!

Bonds can also be offset by commercial tax and calculate Hotan tax!

Is there any better investment opportunity than this?

there is none left!

Especially after the news that Zhang Yue had killed the assassin spread, the last trace of concern and concern among the merchants also disappeared.

Countless people waved the Wuzhu coins and gold in their hands, and cried and shouted that they would buy a bond.

pity……

They reacted too slowly. Yuan Guangguo and his relatives had digested all the bonds internally long before this.

Less than 10 million were left, allowing others to compete for it.

As Yuan Chang knew, that ten million bonds were immediately divided up.

Zhang Yue listened, and was ready to go and felt very energetic.

In this world, it’s easy to do things with money.

Even the country is like this!

With this money, he can do a big fight in Xinfeng!

However, the goals and goals have been fine-tuned.

Before, he was just thinking about building Xinfeng well so that the people of Xinfeng can live a prosperous life.

But now, he has a new goal - to build Xinfeng into a barracks!

Let Yanhe's generation become strong and well-trained elite soldiers.

Then, take them to conquer a big territory and conquer that big world!

What's even better is that this goal does not conflict with the previous goal at all.

Xinfeng is well built - how can it be considered good? Of course, it is to balance the wealth gap and rebuild a strong middle-class group that is the backbone of society.

The people are rich? The more middle class, it means that the better people's lives are.

The children of middle-class self-cultivated farmers have always been the main source of troops of the Han army and the best source of troops!

However, just Xinfeng is not enough to support his ambitions.

Zhang Yue narrowed his eyes, looked at Yuan Chang, his cheap disciple, and then smiled and said to Yuan Chang: "Yuan Chang, Master wants you to help Master do something..."

After hearing this, Yuan Chang immediately bowed with great enthusiasm and said: "Teacher, please tell me that the disciples must go through fire and water and work hard!"

Yuan Chang is now completely convinced of this teacher.

Not only is he very talented, but his martial arts value is also unimaginable.

Now, he feels much more enjoyable than before when he goes out.

In the past, people only knew that he was Yuan Guangguo's only son, a nouveau riche and a second-generation ancestor.

People may be afraid of his wealth and his family's power.

But I didn't have much respect for him.

But now, as soon as you go out, who is respectful and bows to greet you?

Even the aristocratic girls he once loved were now staring at him with admiration and admiration, wishing to marry into the Yuan family immediately.

It is completely different from the previous love and Leng Ruobingshuang.

Of course, Yuan Chang understood that this was because he was the teacher's only disciple, the master of the Han Shizhong and the disciple of Xinfeng Ling.

"I have designed several fishing equipment recently..." Zhang Yue blinked his eyes and stuffed a piece of silk cloth to the other party, saying, "Since you are a disciple of the teacher, then go to Liaodong or Jiaozhi Beach to buy some fishing boats to fish..."

"Fishing?" Yuan Chang was puzzled and had a look of doubt.

"Of course!" Zhang Yue chuckled and said, "Sea fish, that's an inexhaustible resource..."

"These fishing equipment designed by the master, two of which can even kill giant whales!"

This cloth is painted on several common fishing gears that Zhang Yue traced back to, which were active in the Mediterranean and the Atlantic Ocean between the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries in the continent.

For example, original trawls, long-line fishing tools, and harpoons for whaling.

Zhang Yue once suggested to Sang Hongyang that he would take the Lou Ship fleet to the Liaodong waters, Jiaozhi and Fanyu waters to fish.

Unfortunately, the bureaucratic group's action is really slow before being stimulated or before encountering a crisis.

There was no choice but to let the Yuan family take the lead.

The fishery resources in the ocean are so rich that they are beyond your imagination in this era.

Countless fish that have become luxury goods and delicacies in later generations are now full of them.

The yellow-lipped croaker worth millions may now be the on-the-trade food for fishermen in Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

In later generations, many of them became a group of whales that had long become protected animals, and many of them were flooded.

As for those fish that are famous for their group numbers, they may even be able to catch dozens of kilograms if they are spread out on a net.

Therefore, the Grand Secretary’s fishing fleet in Qilu is truly a talented person to catch fish in the sea near Qilu.

Unfortunately, after picking up these slags, I don’t know how to change the place to another place after picking up Qilu.

It's such a pity!

In the future, Zhang Yue will set off a great conquest for his ambitions and desire for war.

In this process, the supply of food, especially meat, will determine success or failure, and at least determine how far his army can travel?

Today, the Han army's meat is mainly beef and mutton.

Especially beef.

But, this era is about to pass soon.

Because, when cattle plowing technology is promoted, cattle will become a protected livestock.

I can no longer have a pleasant beef.

As for mutton? One is the fishy smell, the other is the supply too small.

Zhang Yue had no choice but to explore the fishing resources of the ocean.

Moreover, marine resources must be utilized as soon as possible.

He couldn't wait, the bureaucrats were slow to move.

Therefore, private capital can only take the lead.

Zhang Yue also believed that as long as the Yuan family made profits by fishing on the coast, the Han people's pursuit of wealth and pursuit of it.

In a few years, fishing boats will be everywhere in the entire empire's coast.

A large number of sea fish will be dried into dried fish and transported to the mainland and north.

Fisheries will become the fuel and power for the empire's external expansion.

So, defend the Ministry of Agriculture and expand the territory and fishery affairs!

Yuan Chang was stunned when he listened, but it didn't matter. His family had more money and many people, so he was not afraid of wasting it.

Holding the silk cloth, he nodded without thinking too much and said, "Teacher, please don't worry, I will send someone to do it immediately after the disciple goes back..."
Chapter completed!
