Chapter 1115 Yulin Binds People
Halong Bay.
A row of giant ships lined up on the sea, and the pier was on the verge, and eight hundred black armored cavalry stood.
Xu Luoren was slowly wearing armor, the phoenix-winged helmet mountain text armor given by the emperor, and the sliver belt of the qilin swallowing lion.
"Mr. Xu, there is no need to do such a situation, right?"
Next to him was Niu Jianhu, the defense envoy of the South China Sea Navy fleet who escorted him from Guangzhou. However, Xu Luoren just stood there, and two personal soldiers tied armor for him.
"Mr. Xu, why don't I go to see Duke Wei first?" Gao Jin, who was also a Guangzhou patrol envoy and Guangzhou military appearance, said with a smile.
"I came here with the order and should go to pay homage to Duke Wei in person."
"But there is no need to wear armor. It's easy to misunderstand it."
"Misunderstanding? What misunderstanding? Duke Wei is the god of war in the Tang Dynasty, the son of King Zhongwu, the god of the national protection army. Which one in the Tang Dynasty disrespects me? Although I, Lao Xu, have never fought any decent battles, I am also a general. Since I came to pay a visit to Duke Wei, of course I have to wear armor to see him."
When the cow saw the tiger, Gao Jin looked at each other in surprise.
In the small town of Shenlong Island Fishing Village not far from the pier, those businesses had long seen the movement here. Everyone was shocked to see the situation. Some people even closed their doors and closed their businesses directly. Some were bolder and still kept their business open, and they even had the leisure to watch the fun from afar.
"Which do you think this is?"
In a teahouse, the legend of the heroes of the Sui and Tang Dynasties was originally talked about, and everyone was happy to hear it. When the fleet arrived, the Xuanjia cavalry formed a formation, and the teahouse was immediately messed up. The storyteller, who was usually very eloquent, was stuttering and trembling, and many listeners were walking around.
The few people in the elegant building on the second floor are still very leisurely.
"Where can you go? That guy is upset. Time and time again, do you want to save face?"
When the emperor was angry, blood flowed and the pestle was floating.
"I heard that the saint sent Xuanjia cavalry to pick him up the bride." A guy said with a smile. The word "receiving bride" is interesting. Qin Lang was given a saint's marriage to Princess Changle more than ten years ago. He was about to get married, so he had to drag him down again and again. Now the emperor has sent a hundred cavalry commander to pick up Princess Wei back and Princess Shang to get married.
In broad daylight, those who can drink tea in this large teahouse with great consumption are originally both idle and rich. In addition to fishermen, there are many maritime merchants buying land to build villas and manors here. In addition to the beautiful scenery and pleasant climate, the most important thing is that the Duke of Wei has built a large manor on this island and often lives on this island.
Therefore, in recent years, more and more people have bought land and built garden villas on Long Island, either rich or noble, especially maritime merchants.
Those garden villas that cost tens of thousands of yuan have added a bit of wealth to the island and have also increased the commercial goods and consumption levels on the island.
Especially some large restaurants and tea shops, the decoration is no worse than that of Taiping and Guangjie ports, and the consumption level inside can even reach the level of the two capitals.
But no matter how much you play or make a fuss, everyone is still very close to Mr. Wei.
In this situation outside, no one would believe that the emperor was really unfavorable to Mr. Wei, and they were more like watching the fun.
Although Mr. Wei was idle at home for several years, no one in the world, especially those merchants in Lingnan, worshipped Qin Lang as the God of Wealth.
Everyone knows that the current situation of maritime trade and prosperity of industry and commerce is certainly the support of the emperor and the court, and it is also inseparable from the strong promotion of Duke Wei. It can be said that in today's environment, Duke Wei is a policy formulation and promoter.
Everyone is very satisfied with the current environment and policies, and they all rely on this to make a fortune and live a free and easy life.
"Have you heard that, I'm going to ban the Bohai route."
"It is not a ban on Bohai routes, but a ban on Goguryeo and Baekje routes, and any cargo is prohibited from reaching the two countries of the sea and east. Moreover, the routes to Japan are partially restricted, and some commercial goods are prohibited from passing."
“What is this to do?”
"What else can I do? I'm going to fight. Isn't this obvious?"
Merchants have always been well-informed and have a good eye for their hands and eyes. The more top-notch merchants are, the more complex the relationships they have. It is difficult for pure merchants to grow bigger and longer. They basically have complex relationships with the powerful and high-ranking officials in the court. Many big merchants are just agents of those powerful families.
In recent years, not only has the Tongyi Sea Channel going to the South China Sea become more prosperous, but the Bohai Sea route to the northern and eastern countries is also very lively.
Especially the smuggling trade, it was so prosperous. The iron materials transported from Guangzhou, the grains from Taiping Port, the rubber bands and horns from Qinhuangdao, etc., and the gold, ginseng, horses, slaves, Haidongqing, slaves transported from Silla, lacquer, silver and copper materials transported from Japan...
The bulk smuggling goods were as if no one had seen them, and they were so large that they were so large that they had never checked several fleets on the sea.
At first, some people found it strange, but soon everyone knew what was going on.
This is not smuggling at all.
Some ignorant people really thought it was smuggling, and they wanted to go over and make a few dollars, but as soon as they went to sea, they were seized by the navy and then severely punished.
Gradually, those with tricks can join in and get a share of the pie. Those without tricks can honestly give up the idea and stop joining in the fun.
"Well, Goguryeo now has nothing to sell except slaves, ginseng, and Haidongqing."
Annanhai businessmen outside the street had long seen the problem of smuggling, but the Goguryeo people couldn't see clearly.
Longdao, in Qinjia Manor.
Qin Lang looked at the letter in front of him and just smiled.
"Okay, you go down."
A man who looks very much like Qin Lang nodded and quit.
"Send shadows to Treasure Island."
At the window of Ah Huang Station, he looked at the cavalry on the dock and the fleet in the harbor, and smiled, revealing his big gold teeth.
Qin Lang's manor is built on the mountain, but it is actually on the top of a small mountain, but there is a higher mountain behind it, so it looks like it is halfway up the mountain.
It is a place that is so beautiful.
"Xu Luoren is really good at pretending. Sanlang, you are the one who sets up soldiers in front of you. Isn't this a big axe in front of Lu Ban's door?"
Qin Lang put the letter in a charcoal basin and burned it, and then stirred the ashes into pieces.
"Okay, General Xu is really annoyed. After so many days, he has been rejected from visiting the island again and again. No matter how good the temper is, he can't stand it. Open the door and I'll go to greet General Xu."
"Sanlang, just let this old guy play. I really want to see if he has the courage to really hit the door."
Qin Lang stood up, "Stay at the forefront of doing things, so we can meet each other in the future. General Xu is also a confidant in front of the saint, so don't offend him ruthlessly."
Qin Lang just rushed back from Luzon Island, and now it is gradually on the right track. Although it is still wild and unemployed, it has developed well overall.
With the attraction of gold mines, under the publicity of those gold miners, batches of gold diggers are now rushing to hunt for gold, and the number of gold diggers is constantly increasing. By the time Qin Lang comes back, there are now more than 50,000 gold diggers, and Qin Lang has also removed many other people.
Responsible for land reclamation and farming, as well as some manual production and processing, and also formed a guard team.
His plan is to gradually be self-sufficient, and the food grown on the island can be self-sufficient, and fishing, breeding pigs, cattle and sheep, etc. After these self-sufficient, we will continue to immigrate to cultivate plantations, plant sugarcane, cotton, etc.
Mills, mills, logging yards, wood processing yards, brick factories, tile factories, ceramic yards, textile factories, furniture factories, blacksmith shops, tailor shops and other livelihood-related industries must be gradually established.
Gold digging is now the primary industry in Luzon. This can ensure that it attracts more people. The gold found can also fill the huge costs required for the early development of Luzon, ensuring a balance of income and expenditure. It cannot be like a bottomless pit and cannot only enter or leave. In that case, it will not last long.
Gold mining is the primary industry. In the future, sugarcane planting and processing of cotton, cotton textiles, and even tea, spices will continue to keep up. It is necessary to ensure that Luzon itself has sufficient development capabilities.
Originally, Qin Lang wanted to stay in Luzon for a while. If he could take charge for three or five years, then Luzon's basic foundation would be able to be well established.
But the emperor couldn't wait here.
One enfeoffed imperial edicts and one envoy to draw up the envoys.
When he received an urgent report from General Yulin, the commander of the Hundred Cavalry of Hundred Cavalry of the Hundred Cavalry, and headed south from the Qizhou Holy Vehicle and boarded the ship of the North Sea Fleet to Wu'an, he knew that he could not escape this time.
After letting Shadow delay him for another half a month, Qin Lang finally rushed back.
Xu Luoren was also very angry by Qin Lang. He came in person with the order. After half a month, he didn't even see Qin Lang's face. Only once Qin Lang stood in the distance and showed his face and asked him to go back.
Today, Xu Luoren also made up his mind. Since Qin Lang is so disrespectful to him, he has nothing to say.
Wear a full set of armor and turn on the horse.
Xu Luoren picked up his black painted iron horse spear, waved his long spear, and slowly rode his horse to the manor on the hillside.
A total of eight hundred black armored knights behind him moved forward together.
The cow rode his horse helplessly and followed the past.
Come all the way to the bottom of the mountain.
Xu Luoren's face became increasingly ugly. Looking at the closed manor gate, would he really charge and hit the door?
Although he was decreed, if he really wanted to do this, he would have completely broken up with Qin Lang.
He was a little confused. Why bother Qin Lang? Isn’t this embarrassing him?
Just as he was a little hesitant, the door slowly opened from inside.
Qin Lang took the lead and came out first.
Xu Luoren quickly stopped his mount and waved his arms to signal the armored cavalry behind to stop.
Qin Lang rode his horse closer and stopped slowly.
"Mr. Xu!"
Xu Luoren looked at Qin Lang with a complicated expression, gritted his teeth to calm down, and crossed his hands to pay homage to him, "Duke Wei, the emperor has an imperial edict."
