Start Being a Vassal King Today - Chapter 741

[Chapter 741 Currency System]

autumn wind blows, and the dead leaves rustle.

After resting in Qinghe County, Zhao Xu returned to Yanzhou with the army of the Wangfu.

When passing through Rangseong, the King of Koryo, along with his ministers and generals, knelt on the ground to greet him in front of the south gate.

“Congratulations to Your Highness on his triumphant return. Your Highness’s brilliance and prowess really make the sun and the moon pale…” King Gaoli continued to flatter.

The East-Turk Alliance Army was defeated, and he got the news immediately.

The strength of Yanzhou’s army deeply shocked him and made him full of fear for King Yan.   ”No courtesy.” Zhao

Xu’an sat on the horse, glanced condescendingly at King Gaoli, and said lightly, “Don’t forget what I told you before.”

He has accumulated a lot of affairs, and he needs to go back and deal with them.

King Goryeo responded yes, got out of the way, and stood on the side of the road.

Zhao Xu and the army continued to head north.

After another ten days of trekking, Zhao Xu and his party arrived at Yancheng.

“Your Highness…”

Back at the palace, Yang Susu came out to welcome Zhao Xu before he entered, with a happy face, as if he had a thousand words to say.

Xiao Biesheng is a newlywed, if there is no servant by his side, I am afraid that she will directly throw herself into his arms.

On the other hand, Feng’er was always excited, covered her mouth and laughed for a while, then drove away the servants of the palace, and took Luan’er to go by herself.

“This little girl…” Yang Susu couldn’t laugh or cry, and her face was full of shyness.

Zhao Xu is from the present age, and compared to the ancients, he is thick-skinned in this respect.

He directly picked up Yang Susu and walked towards the bedroom, with a smirk on his face, “It’s been more than a month since we parted, does the princess miss me?”

“No.” Yang Susu buried her head in Zhao Xu’s chest, feeling ashamed to death.

Zhao Xu laughed twice, “Hmph, I’ll let you admit it right away.”

After finishing speaking, he hurried back to the bedroom.

Suddenly, the spring in the room faded.

Happy, Zhao Xu slept until noon the next day.

When he woke up, he didn’t immediately summon the ministers to inquire about government affairs.

Instead, he took a walk with Yang Susu in the mansion, enjoyed the scenery outside the city, and rested for a few days.

During this period of marching and fighting, the bumps immediately made him very tired.

After recovering, he called Prime Minister Liu Fu over and ordered him to report on the situation in Jiangbei during this period.

“It’s a coincidence that His Royal Highness came back. The four big houses will officially open in two days. During this time, I also asked Mi Wen’s publicity department to make a big publicity through newspapers. No matter whether it is a county or a country, everyone has an understanding of it. .” Liu Fu looked excited.

After a pause, he continued: “Many merchants and common people even came to inquire about relevant matters, wanting to deposit money in the four major banks, or loan money to set up workshops.”

Hearing this, Zhao Xu laughed lightly.

Banks are the foundation of the financial system. Only by making banks sound and impressive can the industrial and commercial development of Dasong be further stimulated.

After thinking for a while, he said, “That’s right, not only in Yanzhou, except for the Royal Bank which is only located in Yancheng, the other three major banks will spread all over Jiangbei, and all counties and counties should have them, so that people can save money.”

“This one This matter, I have ordered it to go down, and it is being implemented.” Liu Fu replied: “Besides, Yanzhou Daily is also implementing it at the same time, but due to the different distances between states, I am afraid that the content of Yanzhou Daily will be delayed accordingly. It’s a pity.”

Zhao Xu nodded.

Liu Fu now realized the benefits of the newspaper.

With the newspaper, the imperial court’s policy communication will be very convenient.

But even so, due to communication reasons, it may take ten and a half months for the contents of the newspaper to be known to the entire Yanzhou.

If it is in places like Ningzhou, it will have to be delayed, and it will take more time to transmit it to the countryside of Ningzhou.

“This king has a solution to this problem.” Zhao Xu thought of something and smiled sassyly.

“Your Highness has a solution?” Liu Fu shook his head, “Your Highness has made a telescope and has a clairvoyance. Could it be possible to make something else, with a smooth ear…”

He was just joking, but seeing King Yan’s confident face, his heart skipped a beat, ” No way.”

Zhao Xu chuckled twice, “Just wait for the good news about this matter, let’s continue talking about government affairs.”

Liu Fu calmed down after hearing this, and continued to report about the things that happened in Jiangbei during Zhao Xu’s war. Variety.

“The 8,000 Japanese captives who came back from Koryo were handed over to the Ministry of Industry, and the Ministry of Industry handcuffed them and took them to lay the railway from Yancheng to Jinghai.” Liu Fu said, “There are also those who came from Koryo. The first batch of 30,000 young adults, according to His Highness’s instructions, although they were not treated as prisoners, they were not given monthly silver, they were only given food, and they went to lay the railway.”

“Well, there will be 20,000 Dongying soon .” When the captives arrived in Yanzhou, they were also handed over to the Ministry of Industry to build the railway. As for the 270,000 people in Koryo who will arrive in Yanzhou in the form of corvee, if there are enough people to build the railway, let them build the cement road and start construction. Dig a canal.” Zhao Xu said.

In the last battle of Koryo, many Japanese soldiers who could not escape chose to surrender.

As for the surrender of the Dasong powerful clan, it is still an old policy.

Let the Propaganda Department correct their thinking first, and let them leave on their own if they don’t want to stay.

Through these few wars, this policy is still effective.

Once the war is frustrated, there are still many powerful soldiers who are willing to surrender, which saves them a lot of energy.

Then, Liu Fu talked about the situation of dividing the fields in Jiangbei.

At present, the division of land in each state is almost over.

According to the responses of the prefects and herdsmen of various states, the people who were allocated land were very grateful to the Wangfu, and their trust in the Wangfu was also at an all-time high.

In addition, it is the construction of workshops in various counties and counties.

All the workshops in Yanzhou dispatched a group of old craftsmen to go to the states to guide the construction of the workshops, and at the same time recruit workshop craftsmen in the states to teach the craft.

After that, Liu Fu reported the production and sales of each workshop in Yanzhou, the livestock and farming situation in Guanzhuang, and the construction of agricultural machinery workshops and construction machinery workshops.

Although, some matters here are under the direct jurisdiction of people like Yang He and Wang Chong.

But he is the prime minister, and when he is not around, he still has to report back to him.

After listening to Liu Fu’s report, Zhao Xu was generally satisfied.

Everything was going according to his plan, and there was no delay because he went to Goryeo to fight.

Telling Liu Fu to leave, Zhao Xu called Yang He over.

After the first battle of Goryeo, Goryeo officially became a vassal state of Daesong.

Next, he wants to completely control it from the three aspects of politics, military affairs and economy.

Needless to say about politics and military affairs, the King of Korea and Yin Boming are his puppets, and the military has kept 2,000 garrisons.

Economically, Yang He can generously import goods from Yanzhou to Goryeo.

Not only that, the Korean court had to provide various conveniences.

“From luxury goods such as fine wine, perfume, pocket watch, pendulum clock, down to cloth, cement, soap, etc., sell them all to this king.” Zhao Xu ordered.

“Your Highness, just watch.” Yang He smiled hippie.

In the past, Gao Li was a half-hidden man with a pipa for the commercial firm, but now he is stripped naked, so he naturally wants to make a lot of money.

Zhao Xu nodded, this is still the first step.

His real killer move is actually in the Royal Bank.

Immediately, he will let the Royal Bank launch the currency system, and at that time, he will also let Korea join the system.

Control it financially.
