Facts have proved that Nan Seventeen is indeed the right person to be the commander of the patrol station, after he took office as the commander, the patrol station quietly began to establish its own structure and opened its own stall, and the news that Lin Wushuang and others wanted to know also began to be sent from the patrol station in a steady stream.
Da Ruan civil strife, Da Zheng civil strife, these good news, one after another, flew onto Lin Wushuang's desk, so that I couldn't believe it, this kind of thing is not a lucky thing to encounter, this is simply a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Let's talk about the Great Zheng Kingdom first, the specific process is still unclear, but Zheng Shaoqiu, that is, the third prince Zheng that Lin Wushuang knows, has successfully ascended the throne within half a month of this break, and the seventh prince of Zheng who once competed with him for the throne has now been sent by Zheng Shaoqiu to I don't know where to go, and now in the Great Zheng Dynasty, Zheng Shaoqiu is the rightful King Zheng, of course, there must be some ups and downs during this period, but all this is not the focus of the news that Changnan wants to explore, they just need to know, Da Zheng Guo has already changed masters, and this master, at the moment, is slowly rectifying Da Zheng's government and taking his control and influence among every official, they are enough.
As for Da Ruan, this has to be said, no matter how capable Nan Seventeen is, it is impossible for this patrol post that has been built up in a short period of time to send spies to Thang Long City and send back the news they have found out in time, but this does not prevent him from inquiring about the news from those merchants who came to Changnan from the territory controlled by Da Ruan, although these news have not been confirmed, but as soon as the news that Lin Wushuang got from Qi Hu of the Shandong Chamber of Commerce confirmed, naturally the authenticity of these news is clear at a glance.
Therefore, the current situation in Da Ruan's country, not to say that it is all, at least eight points of the situation can be confirmed, the reason why the advance of the Qingfeng Battalion, why Da Ruan's soldiers and horses collapsed at the touch of a button, and did not organize a few decent resistance, the reason for this is also about to come out, it is not that they can't organize a few decent resistance, but their commander is not in the army at all at the moment, and, compared to the Qingfeng Battalion's cautious step by step, there are some things, for the Prince Ruan who commanded the Da Ruan soldiers and horses, More important.
At this moment, it seems that it is not appropriate to call Ruan Tian Prince Ruan, to be correct, Ruan Tian should be King Ruan now, although this King Ruan has not been recognized by the Ming Dynasty, but Zheng Shaoqiu, the third prince of Zheng Zheng, has unknowingly become King Zheng, and how has he been recognized and canonized by the Ming Dynasty, although Ruan Tian and Zheng Shaoqiu both know that if the Dayue Kingdom is no longer part of the Da Ruan and Da Zheng, but a complete and unified country, at that time, there was a messenger sent by the imperial court of this country, Asking for tribute from the Ming Dynasty and asking for canonization, nine times out of ten, this request will not be refused, but that day still seems to be a little far away.
The Qingfeng Battalion, which was originally hesitant to withdraw or hold on, decisively chose to stick to it under the orders of the military and political yamen, if nothing else, in a short period of time, Da Ruan's soldiers and horses would definitely not organize a larger offensive, and this time was enough for Changnan to digest these territories occupied by them.
The bidding meeting of the new offensive city was held as scheduled in Guangping, and the bidding meeting held in Yuelai Restaurant for the first and second time was different, the venue of this bidding meeting was chosen in the General's Mansion, no matter what the result of this bidding meeting was, at this time, it was already a dazzling treatment to be able to get an invitation from the General's Mansion and enter the General's Mansion to participate in this prosperous era.
The invitation is sent directly to the chambers of commerce, yes, it is the chambers of commerce, in addition to the old Guangping Chamber of Commerce, the new seven chambers of commerce in Guangping City, everyone has been invited, the object of this bidding, is not an individual, but the chamber of commerce, which is different from the previous bidding, but has a huge difference.
Guangping Chamber of Commerce, Shandong Chamber of Commerce, Jiangsu and Zhejiang Chamber of Commerce, Fujian Chamber of Commerce, Yunnan-Guizhou Chamber of Commerce, Sichuan Chamber of Commerce, five representatives of each Chamber of Commerce, after receiving the invitation from the General's Mansion, waited early outside the General's Mansion.
At the moment, the door of the general's mansion was opened, and all the businessmen who were waiting outside the door were welcomed into the mansion, just the door was opened, which made the representatives of the Chamber of Commerce present, one by one, moved very much, even if the Ming Dynasty has attached great importance to the merchants, but, no matter which minister's mansion, for welcoming a group of businessmen, there will be no etiquette to open the middle door, businessmen such identities, can enter through the side door to be received, that is already a big face for the businessmen, like this kind of behavior of the Changnan General's Mansion, It can be completely boiled down to the category of favor.
The businessmen gathered together, Lin Wushuang took the initiative to come out, and was polite to the merchants, the bidding for the city's commercial rights, more really, this is a matter of the civil affairs yamen, Lin Wushuang held this bidding meeting in the general's mansion, and attended it in person, which is enough to express his importance to the businessmen, although the time he was present was not as long as one-third of Su Su's time present, just a few polite words, a few words, and then toasted all the merchants with a glass of wine and left, the next thing, It was all handed over to Su Su and Lin Qiaoqiao, but this feeling of being valued still made the businessmen present feel very satisfied.
The bidding for the city is not particularly fierce, it can be seen that before this grand meeting was held in the general's mansion, these chambers of commerce had contact in private, and they had already negotiated with each other about the distribution of the cities that were already in the hands of the Qingfeng Battalion, and the result was simply unexpectedly average, seven cities, the Seventh Brother Chamber of Commerce each divided one, none of them failed, and none of them occupied.
For this situation, Su Su is a little helpless, after all, these merchants have put a lot of effort into bidding, the first city to be auctioned out of the vestibule city, at the beginning, it was only sold for 50,000 taels of silver, but this time, whether it is in the small and barren city, as long as it is in the ranks of bidding, none of them have a bidding price of less than 100,000, and the big city, for example, the newly occupied Fucheng, is auctioned at a high price of 250,000 taels of silver, you know, this is not just a mouthful of words, After the bidding was over, the silver had to be paid to the civil affairs yamen immediately, and after receiving the silver, the civil affairs yamen began to arrange for these merchants who had obtained commercial rights to accept the city.
The auction process of the city is very short, but the long one is that after the auction, Su Su reminded these chambers of commerce.
"These cities can be handed over to the bidders within a month after the chambers of commerce of each bidding proceed pay the silver, and at the same time, my Qingfeng Battalion still provides local defense, but the security of the city, clearing and suppressing, and maintaining these things have to depend on yourself, I hope you are ready, if we find that the bidders are completely incapable of managing these cities, and these cities under the control of my Changnan cannot bring benefits in terms of population, resources, grain, grass and ordnance to my Changnan, then, Even if the bidder has paid enough silver taels, we will take back these cities at our discretion."
"Lord Su, this seems to be a bit unfair, whether this has the ability to govern these cities, or what the city will be governed into, but there is no fixed saying, to put it mildly, if we feel that we have managed the city well in the future, but your lordship thinks that we are not well managed, do you have to take back the jurisdiction of these cities at any time?"
"There won't be this case" Su Su shook his head and said: "How much is the population of the city, how many people appear, how much should be offered to Changnan, these have special calculation rules for people, as long as the regulations for Changnan are completed, even if you make the city into a hell on earth, we don't care, you are the actual manager of these cities, but if this requirement is not met, even if the people in the city all boast of how merciful and loving the people are, it is useless, and when the time comes, I will still ask you to get out" "Understood, is the commercial right of this city still limited to ten years?"
"That's right, a ten-year period, after ten years, and then re-adjust, but at that time, maybe it's a bidding, maybe it's a reward, maybe it's a reward" Su Su smiled: "Maybe it's a separation, who knows how, when the time comes, these cities, everyone will deal with them, but what can be confirmed is that no matter how these cities are handled, the original owners of the city's commercial rights, that is, the actual managers, will have the priority to deal with this city, even if it is for some special reasons, If you can't get the business power for the next ten years, the General's Mansion, in the name of General Lin personally, guarantees that these people will receive sufficient compensation, and this compensation will not be lower than your expectations."
Everyone nodded happily, and the words were all said like this, if there is still someone who wants to ask the truth, then this person is missing a string in his head.
"Of course, due to the sensitivity of the current timing, for the management of these cities, I suggest that you should still maintain sufficient force, the Qingfeng Battalion is only responsible for local defense, and will not interfere with the management of the city, how the people in this city can be obedient, it depends on your ability."
"Lord Su, just now Lord Lin said that after we take charge of these cities, we are allowed to recruit a thousand households to one guard as a force to maintain the stability of the city, I want to ask, the source of these private soldiers, the Qingfeng Battalion will not interfere, and besides, these private soldiers will not be all recruited by the Qingfeng Battalion at some time and become part of the Qingfeng Battalion."
The person who asked this is obviously very thoughtful, and has studied all the avenues about the bidding and management of the city, after all, this is not a trivial matter, to make tens of thousands of people obey the system, it will definitely not be possible to rely on words, and the Qingfeng Battalion has made it clear that once the city is handed over, they will only be responsible for the siege of the city and fight against the enemy, and they will not care about the internal stability of the city, which means that they have to rely on their own strength, and the general's palace allows them to recruit private soldiers, Even these private soldiers are hung in the name of the civil affairs yamen, but no matter what kind of private soldiers they are, once they are armed, they will need a lot of money and manpower, and these people don't want these people who have worked hard and spent time and money to arm them at that time will be taken for granted by Qingfeng Ying.
"This question, you don't have to worry, this is a mutually beneficial issue, your city, if it is at the moment of life and death, the Qingfeng Camp will do its best to protect it, but if the Qingfeng Camp is at the moment of life and death, Changnan is at the moment of life and death, if there is no contribution from you, do you think that those alien races will let you maintain the status quo after defeating the Qingfeng Camp" Su Su asked rhetorically: "So, what I promise now is that under normal circumstances, we will not interfere with these forces of yours, let alone recruit them, but, If it is a matter of life and death in Changnam, I will maintain the right to call up all the armed forces in Changnam."
She smiled: "You are willing to spend such a large price, and let the outstanding children of your clan become a member of the Qingfeng Battalion, naturally you want to be one with my Qingfeng Battalion, and I Changnan as one, then, if my Qingfeng Battalion is defeated and the Changnan forces are not there, I am afraid that all of you will be wasted in these investments, this kind of trade-off, with your shrewdness, will you not be able to think of it?"
"Master Su is reasonable, one is prosperous, one is lost, at this time, you still have to take care of these, then don't see this momentum, I believe that in addition to your chamber of commerce, colleagues in other chambers of commerce are very willing to accept the city you just bid for."
"I'll ask if it's such a big thing, but all my net worth and life will be invested in the future, let me ask from Master Su for the exact word, what are you not satisfied with?"
Well, it seems that these chambers of commerce still don't buy each other, Su Su smiled and watched the underground businessmen slander each other and tear each other down, as long as these people are tied to the chariot by Changnan, they are not afraid that they will jump out of the car again, whether the quarrel at the moment or slander, it is just some worries before stepping on the chariot of the Qingfeng Battalion, and it has little impact on the overall situation at all.
"A month, within a month, all the successful bidders, you can organize your own manpower, come to the civil affairs yamen to report, and then by the general's mansion and the civil affairs yamen authorized to write, you can go to the city you bid to receive, time waits for no one, if you have time and experience to quarrel here, it is better to go back and prepare well, such a big thing, I am afraid it is enough for you to be busy" Looking at these merchants with a smile, Su Su ended this bidding meeting, for the Qingfeng Battalion, no matter how much silver these cities bid for, this is secondary, important, with these merchants taking over these cities, and even bringing their own private armies, then, for a long time, the Qingfeng Camp can not focus on these cities, but on a farther and wider place aa2705221 t1706231537:
