The situation in Nanjing cannot escape Xu Changqing's eyes.

After the main force of the Qing army retreated, two secret reports were sent to him every day, one in the morning and one in the evening. If there is an emergency, it will be exacerbated.

But Xu Changqing was not in a hurry to fiddle with the state of Nanjing.

The main reason is that this kind of thing cannot be changed at once and for a while. It is just rash and it is very likely that not only will it not have any good effect, but it will make things worse.

Xu Changqing was already very skilled in the principle of "Dayu's flood control".

Speaking of which, it is not all Confucius' pot. There are still many positive things left by Confucius.

It's really hateful!

It is a person who borrows the legacy of this kind of sage, uses the right to speak in his hands, and wants to misinterpret them, so as to achieve their ulterior motives!

This kind of struggle will accumulate for a long time, so you must not be in a hurry. It will definitely be a long process.

Just like when the Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang turned away Hu Weiyong and Lan Yu, even if it was Lao Zhu's foundation, he needed to endure and plan for a long time.

Xu Changqing's top priority is to focus on military affairs.

The latest news from the front today is that the main force of the Qing army has passed Linqing at this time, and the vanguard has even left Shandong, and many Han slaves have arrived near Linqing.

The efficiency is amazing.

Of course, the reason why Han slaves ran so fast was because the Qing army had carefully screened it.

In the past, the Qing army captured the population mostly because young women were the best, especially Han beauties, to meet their various purposes.

After all, Han beauties are basically 'capable and capable', and many are thrifty and will definitely not lose money, especially those Mongolian slaves and armored people.

But this battle is different.

Most of the Han slaves left by the Qing army were young and middle-aged men, and women were basically left to Xu Changqing. The Hongniang now gathered tens of thousands of Han women in Ningyang, and the total number was about to be 400,000.

From this we can see how urgent the Qing Dynasty needed labor to improve productivity at this time.

Although Xu Changqing felt a little painful to lose these populations, Xu Changqing would never lose the 400,000 young women and more than 100,000 men and women in Denglai.

Especially many important industries in the Lianghuai region have been plowed away, and Xu Changqing will undoubtedly have more room for his own room.

However, Xu Changqing would not develop the industries of Lianghuai by himself. He would at least give half of the profits to the court and the Nanjing nobles, so that they could do it themselves.

This is Xu Changqing's first killer move against Nanjing, including the entire Jiangnan!

Nowadays, Jiangbei is short of people, but Jiangnan is not short of people.

In fact, since its birth, Chinese civilization has never lacked any people...

Xu Changqing only needs to move his mouth to enjoy the huge benefits and achieve his own political goals. Why not do it?

As for these 400,000 young women, Xu Changqing would definitely not return them to the court, asking them to return to their hometown in Lianghuai. The benefits of the salt farms and land they gave up in Lianghuai could still allow the court to subsidize these women.

These women were a big burden to the court and Jiangnan, but they were extremely valuable wealth to Haicheng, which had already begun to focus on emerging capitalism.

After they are placed and on the track, Haicheng will undoubtedly embark on the new fast lane.

"Master General, Yan Sheng Gong sent someone to invite you to come to the banquet in the evening. It seems that there are some gentry and celebrities from Jining and Yanzhou..."

At this time, Zhang Taiping came over to report. After resting for a few days, he had recovered almost, becoming more and more calm and very handsome.

"Well, I understand, I will pass by time."

"yes."

Seeing Zhang Taiping leaving quickly, Xu Changqing couldn't help but smile.

Kong Yinzhi is quite reliable in doing things, at least he is still reliable in his own affairs, and his plan is almost ready to go on track.

Xu Changqing also took advantage of the afternoon to handle many complicated military affairs.

At this time, the main camp of the Model Army had moved outside the north gate of Qufu City. Because of the hasty retreat, the Qing army had no time to transport away many property, including strategic materials, and several small hills were piled up in the Model Army camp.

Unfortunately, it looks a lot and is worth some money, but the real value is not too high, only about tens of thousands or two hundred thousand taels of silver.

Dorgon is still a monkey spirit, and most of the more valuable ones he can take away have been taken away by them.

Now that the Qing army has withdrawn, the main force of the Model Army has been roaming abroad, it is not a solution. It is important to know that the consumption of troops on the local level is definitely not the same as the ones. People eat horses and horses every day, even if Xu Changqing has a strong foundation, he will not be able to bear it.

Now that the Model Army retreated to Haicheng is Xu Changqing's top priority.

However, there are many skills in retreating!

Whether it is Qufu, Jining, or Yanzhou, which has begun to be restored and rebuilt, Xu Changqing has to personally plan and arrange personnel, and gradually penetrate the influence of the model army into these areas.

To put it bluntly, it is to install people!

However, it cannot be too obvious and proactive, so we have to let these people beg Xu Changqing.

Therefore, Xu Changqing had to personally talk to these men and have a good chat and a careful chat in many important positions.

...

Night falls and lights are on.

Under the escort of five hundred personal soldiers, Xu Changqing slowly arrived in front of an ancient restaurant in Qufu City.

Also accompanying Zhu Guobi, the man who had just arrived in Funing, was accompanied.

As the carriage stopped, Zhu Guobi, who had already understood Xu Changqing's intentions, hurriedly got off the carriage like an eunuch and helped Xu Changqing open the curtain.

Outside the restaurant, Kong Yinzhi worked with dozens of Kong family members and gentry from all over the world around No. 50 and 60, and had been waiting here for a long time.

"Haha, Marquis, it's really not seen each other for a day, it's like three autumns. Marquis, your style is even better than yesterday."

Kong Yinzhi had already understood the benefits of tacit understanding with Xu Changqing at this time. As soon as he saw Xu Changqing, he quickly came up with him, and his old face was about to smile.

"Mr. Master, you love me. Haha, these colleagues are the gentry and celebrities around our Qufu and Jining, right?"

Xu Changqing greeted Kong Yinzhi, but he did not forget the crowd of gentry and wealthy families around him.

As Xu Changqing looked at them, the gentry and wealthy families were slightly turbulent, and they all couldn't help but say hello to Xu Changqing excitedly.

They had long heard of Xu Changqing's reputation for a long time, but this was the first time they actually saw it.

Xu Changqing didn't seem to disappoint them either.

Not only are they tall and mighty, but their strong confidence and momentum from the inside out make them feel at ease.

In addition, with a purple robe, Zhu Guobi, who is also powerful, pushed Xu Changqing's power up one level.

After a long time, the crowd exchanged greetings, and then they entered the restaurant bustlingly.

This restaurant is called Songyuewai.

Needless to say, it is also the industry of the Kong family, which has a great business.

It is said that this huge building complex covering an area of ​​dozens of acres was first built during the reign of Emperor Zhenzong of the Northern Song Dynasty, and there were also inscriptions from Emperor Zhenzong.

Perhaps it was to show off with Xu Changqing and to increase his weight. The authentic works of Zhenzong's famous saying "There is a golden house in the book, and the beautiful woman in the book" were brought here at this time, and it was named for everyone to appreciate it.

When everyone saw this word, they were almost about to explode and were filled with surprise.

Even Xu Changqing was a little shocked.

I poke his grandma, I have heard this sentence for almost a lifetime, but this is the first time I have seen the original work.

I have to say that the foundation of the Kong family is definitely not accessible to ordinary people.

To a large extent, this should be the only number one gentry that has truly passed down and has been circulated in thousands of years.

Seeing Xu Changqing's expression, Kong Yinzhi was extremely satisfied. He secretly approached Xu Changqing's ear and said softly: "Mr. Marquis, this letter is really special, otherwise it would be okay to give it to you. However, I have also prepared other gifts for Marquis, including a genuine work of Mi Fumi. Later, I would like to ask Marquis, you can appreciate it carefully."

"Master, you are so dissatisfied. You and my brothers are like brothers, so let's communicate together!"

If you don't have any benefits, you are a bastard.

Especially for big dogs like the Kong family, Xu Changqing will not be polite.

The two of them looked at each other and couldn't help but smile knowingly, everything was silent.

At this time, a servant came over to inform that the food and food were ready and that it was ready to attend the table. Kong Yinzhi hurriedly invited Xu Changqing to take the lead in the table.

Although it was a difficult time, the Kong family's foundation was here, and the banquet was still quite sumptuous. There were all kinds of flying in the sky, swimming in the water, and running on the ground, which was probably not much worse than the imperial meal.

Shandong cuisine was the chief of the national cuisine at this time. At this time, the person who cooked the banquet was a master of Shandong cuisine who was close to the Kong family. It was almost instantly forgotten that the world was still wandering, and it seemed like it was back to singing and dancing in the prosperous era.

Because the meeting is going to be held, the dining room is not a separate room, but in the lobby.

Of course, at this time, except for Xu Changqing and the gentry, there were no one else in the hall.

After this time of deliberate warm-up, the atmosphere was almost done, and everyone subconsciously looked at Xu Changqing.

Xu Changqing smiled, cleared his throat, picked up the wine glass, looked around the crowd warmly and said, "Everyone, everyone, speaking of it, Changqing has long wanted to communicate with you, but he is suffering from the turbulence of the current situation and we have never had time. Today, with the beauty of Lord Yansheng, Changqing borrows flowers to offer Buddha here and wishes you a cup!"

"Mr. Marquis, you are so kind. I will respect you first."

"Mr. Marquis, the student wishes Marquis to be fierce and virtuous, and to run thousands of miles..."

"Marty..."

These gentry members of the rich and powerful families were deliberately selected by Kong Yinzhi, and basically captured the essence of southern Shandong and surrounding areas in one go. The words of these people were more beautiful than the other.

The atmosphere of Xu Changqing bringing this first glass of wine quickly became popular, and he also came to Zhu Guobi's stage.

As Xu Changqing sat calmly, Zhu Guobi and Xu Changqing had a look of eye contact, and stood up with a glass of wine, and said aloud: "Everyone, with the treasure land of our Lord Yansheng and the glory of the Marquis of Haicheng, Zhu made a fool of himself here."

Everyone had already learned some details before, and they saw that they started serving "meat and vegetables" so quickly. They were all clever and quickly gathered their energy.

Zhu Guobi is now Xu Changqing's hardcore dog-legged, completely Xu Changqing's voice-over. He has long forgotten the little dirty things he had with Xu Changqing before. Instead, he pretended to be a tiger's power and took pride in it.

Seeing that the scene was shocked, Zhu Guobi smiled slowly and said, "Everyone, Zhu and you all met before and didn't know each other, but today, we all know each other. He was appointed by the Empress Dowager and entrusted by the Emperor. Zhu had an important thing at this time, and he wanted to talk to you."

After all, he was a noble young man from a wealthy family, so Zhu Guobi's style was still unspeakable. While speaking, he bowed to Nanjing.

The atmosphere in the venue was quick and quiet, and everyone was staring at him with awesomeness.

Zhu Guobi was very satisfied and enjoyed his current state, but his face changed to a sad expression: "Everyone, the Tatars went south to our Ming Dynasty this time, which was like a locust crossing the border. It really caused heavy losses to our Ming Dynasty. Fortunately, the Marquis of Haicheng and the Model Junerlang turned the tide, so he successfully resisted the Tartars' military front and returned the peace of the Ming Dynasty!"

Everyone nodded repeatedly and said yes.

Seeing that everyone was getting more and more upright, Zhu Guobi also smiled on his face: "Everyone, this life is like this. It's so painful, but we have to continue living our lives. For example, the Lianghuai region is the core of the salt industry of the Ming Dynasty. Now, being made like this by the Tartars is already messy, but the people of the Ming Dynasty always have to eat salt, right? Everyone has to come up with a charter."
