Chapter 108 Jade

"I want a hundred kilograms of jade."

Ying Yidao.

"jade?"

The scholar laughed as soon as he heard this: "Sir, Nanyang produces jade. The jade and jewelry I have collected before were all in the county warehouse. Those with the best quality are all hidden well for the adults."

After hearing the scholar's words, Ying Yi suddenly realized that he was no longer alone. He defeated the thief, Zuo Liangyu, killed Ding Qirui, occupied Yuzhou, and confiscated a lot of money. Among them, there were jade, jewelry, gold, silver, and money.

He had already given 30% of the reward before, but this time he did not turn around.

Ying Yi nodded: "It's good. I'll go to Crescent Valley a little later, and I will leave the matter here to you and my father-in-law Tai. You can also carry the food and grass transportation, and I have no time to take care of it for the time being."

"Yes, sir."

Then Ying Yi went to the warehouse to select a hundred kilograms of high-quality jade, and also saw the wealth he has now. Regardless of gold, silver, money, and jade jewelry alone, and the quality of jade and jewelry, the storage in the warehouse may be worth 100,000 taels of silver.

Most of these jade and jewelry were obtained from the mansions of Zuo Liangyu, Ding Qirui and others. In addition to various types of money, it is worth at least 400,000 taels. How long did these bastards go to Yuzhou? I don’t know how they plundered them.

But now it's all cheaper Ying Yi.

Ying Yi packed a hundred kilograms of jade in two small boxes and put them on the horse's back. Two guards led the horses behind him and walked out of the county government to the city.

Ying Yi is no longer alone now. Ying Yi originally planned to ride alone, but after all, he was persuaded, but the scholar arranged two guards for him.

According to the scholar, if there are any trivial matters, there is a errand runner.

Ying Yi did not refuse.

These two guards were soldiers recruited from the Crescent Valley earlier. This time, Ying Yi occupied Yuzhou and selected dozens of people from the army to protect the county government, among which these two were included.

One is named Zhang Si and the other is called Lin Gen.

Walking on the streets of Yuzhou City, the coldness is everywhere. As soon as the beacon passed, the people were trembling and rarely came to the streets. The few days before, it was almost difficult to see people. In the past few days, Zheng Yunzhi's announcement of the people has gradually become effective. People have already walked on the streets, and some shops have also opened one after another.

In Yuzhou today, the rules are determined by Ying Yi. The biggest change is the commercial taxation. A few days ago, many merchants came to the door with a tough slap. If you want to go up to Ying Yi's territory, you must follow Ying Yi's rules.

For this reason, many merchants used all their means to stuff money and bribes, which was normal, but Ying Yi's power was a brand new force, not the old force of the Ming Dynasty that merchants believed. Although some people accepted bribes, they were all severely dealt with by Ying Yi, and the matter came to an end.

However, Ying Yi knew that this was just the beginning. Yuzhou was just a county, and the Central Plains had been poisoned by thieves for a long time. The powerful merchants in the past were either killed by thieves or moved away, but some small and medium-sized merchants had little resistance.

When the territory occupied in the future becomes larger, these bullshits will naturally occur.

But Ying Yi had absolute confidence to press them down.

In the business field, Ying Yi didn’t have much thoughts. Encouragement is one, taxation is one. In addition, it is land.

Now, it is even more important.

Land is the foundation of everything, and at the end of the dynasty, there were often serious annexation. Zheng Yunzhi was already working on this matter these days, but it was difficult to move forward.

Ying Yi did not act rashly. The power rooted in the land was the biggest force of this era. Whether it was an official, a small landlord, or a large merchant from all walks of life, the rich and powerful often occupied a large area of ​​fertile land and squeezed the living space of the people.

Ying Yi is temporarily focusing on military affairs because he is considering the thieves. When he drives the thieves away, he will naturally have to clean up the matter when he turns around.

If the land is not cleared, the matter will be impossible.

Near the city gate, more people became more crowded.

At the city gate, there is an office established by the county government. It gathers registered refugees, distributes porridge, releases grain, and recruits workers, which are all here, which attracts many people.

As the war in Nanyang stopped and Sun Xiucai's publicity, many refugees gradually gathered in Yuzhou and Wuyang. They were all needed by Ying Yi.

The population, labor, and technology are all about them.

Ying Yi stopped for a while and saw that he was orderly and left the city.

After leaving the city, Ying Yi turned over and rode his horse, three people and four horses, and walked towards Fangcheng Mountain with the rolling smoke and dust.

To this day, no rain has fallen. The land of Nanyang is full of yellow and desolation. The sky is still gloomy, but even if it doesn’t rain, Ying Yi can only sigh.

The horse's back was up and down, Ying Yi thought to himself, but felt powerless and could not do it for the time being.

"Just look forward to it raining sooner..."

Zhang Si and Lin Gen were deeply touched by his words.

...

In the afternoon, Ying Yi finally returned to Bibo Valley.

The mountains of Fangcheng are now full of enthusiasm. There have been teams of slave workers working in the mountains one after another. More than 30,000 slave workers will be organized and reorganized, which will take some time, but it does not prevent the reorganized first from being put into use.

Ying Yi naturally knew the reorganization of the slave labor camp. More than 30,000 people were organized into 32 slave labor teams according to one organization per thousand.

There are only seven or eight that are put into use now.

Each slave worker team is equipped with a captain, who is a scholar who is good at writing recruited by Lian Biao. It is impossible to select twenty supervisors from them and use slave workers to supervise slave workers. Ying Yi lacks enough staff.

Fortunately, the slave workers were pretty good too. On the contrary, the supervisors selected from slave workers were even more powerful. Perhaps to show goodwill to Ying Yi, these supervisors were even more cruel to other slave workers.

When Ying Yi entered the mountain, he encountered two teams of slave workers. The mountain road from Bibo Valley to Xiaowangzhuang was the two teams of slave workers responsible for the construction.

It didn't take long to say, but after a big battle, I suddenly turned around and it seemed like a long time had passed. Bibogu indeed became different.

All workshops in Bibo Valley have been completed. Among the more than ten acres of valleys, there are two workshops with gold and fire font sizes, and one other one. The seven workshops are neatly planned and not messy at all.

The gun head required by Ying Yi had already been prepared, and now the working direction of Bibo Valley is focused on tool manufacturing.

Hoe, plow, rake, hammer, chisel, this is the top priority of the Bibo Valley Workshop after the spear head.

Ying Yi occupied the three counties and wanted to plant another crop of grain in the season, so that agricultural tools must not be missing. And all kinds of tools must not be missing in construction requirements.

"The various tools produced in Bibo Valley can already meet all aspects of their needs."

Pu Tiech and Erniu followed Ying Yi to answer the questions for Ying Yi.

Pu Tiehui said: "The tools required for all projects in the city mountains below are all produced by our Bibo Valley."

Ying Yi nodded slightly and smiled, "Does the master craftsman have any flaws about that firearm?"

Pu Tiech looked puzzled and said, "Sir, the biggest problem is to concentrate on the water source. There is not enough water in Bibo Lake."

In fact, it's not just that.

Only a few days have passed? All preparations for building a firearm have not been completed yet.
Chapter completed!
