Chapter 150 Return to Zhijiang

Let’s talk about Lin Chunhong’s rush back to Zhijiang after she slept all the way, Li and Zhou Feng almost didn’t dare to recognize each other: Lin Chunhong’s beard, his hair was scattered, and his body was covered in dust, just like a refugee who was fleeing famine. Zhou Feng was still stunned. Li walked up tremblingly, held Lin Chunhong’s arms, and cried, “Son, I’ve suffered in the north! Fight a hard battle, live in Zhijiang with peace of mind!”

Zhou Feng felt very distressed and stood behind Li, unable to express his lovesickness. After holding it in for a long time, Fang excitedly said: "Third brother, our daughter is pink and very cute..."

Lin Chunhong was overjoyed, grabbed Zhou Feng and Li's hands with both hands, and kept shaking: "Mom, Xiao Feng'er, let's go and see Xiao Yu'er together!" After that, he was about to rush into the inner room.

Li shouted anxiously, "Xiao Yuer has gone to bed early. You are so dusty. It's time to take a shower, pass the brazier, stop the bad luck, and then go to see your daughter!"

"I can't help it, I'll take a look first!" Before Lin Chunhong finished speaking, he grabbed Zhou Feng's hand and ran away, leaving behind Li, who kept complaining: "Hey, this naughty child, it's still unpredictable to do things..."

Xiao Yuer, who was in her infancy, had already fallen asleep, lying quietly on the bed. Lin Chunhong stood far away, bent down deeply, almost at a ninety-degree angle, and tried hard to put his head to the mosquito net, and carefully looked at the crystals of him and Zhou Feng.

What a cute little man, his eyes were closed tightly, like a line, and his pink face was still full of crystal clear fluff, and his mouth kept sucking, as if he was still eating nai.

Lin Chunhong couldn't help but murmur: "Xiao Yuer, Dad is coming to see you, haha, little beauty, you're a beauty! Haha..."

Lin Chunhong became more and more happy as he looked at it. He couldn't help but straighten his waist, hugged Zhou Feng, hugged Zhou Feng's waist, and put his mouth close to Zhou Feng's ear, "Xiao Feng'er, you have suffered. Did you scold me when you gave birth to Yu?"

Zhou Feng was in a state of excitement, and tears were like pearls with broken threads, falling drop by drop. Regardless of the dust on Lin Chunhong's body, he hugged Lin Chunhong's neck tightly and sobbed, "I cursed, I'm so angry! I don't even accompany me!"

Lin Chunhong held Zhou Feng's face, stared at Zhou Feng's eyes, pointed it at Zhou Feng's lips, and kissed him deeply. Zhou Feng nodded, hugging Lin Chunhong's neck tighter with his arms, wrapping around Lin Chunhong like a lip vine.

After a long time, Lin Chunhong said, "Okay, OK, I'm back, I won't leave my little Feng'er behind!"

Zhou Feng's face was red and gasping, "I'm here to lie to me again. When will I go back to the north?"

Lin Chunhong smiled embarrassedly and said, "I have to take a shower immediately. I have been riding a horse for several days and ate the dust all the way. I have to discuss matters with my father-in-law and the others after a while. Oh...you go to bed first..."

...

When Lin Chunhong met with the Pavilion Envoy, it was already ugly when he returned to the bedroom. Zhou Feng was still sitting on the bed with his big phoenix eyes open. As soon as he saw Lin Chunhong, he immediately rushed up and printed his hot lips on Lin Chunhong's mouth. Zhou Feng gave birth less than three months, and Lin Chunhong was extremely tired, the two of them quenched their thirst a little and hugged each other.

The next day, just dawned. Lin Chunhong woke up and saw Zhou Feng hugging her tightly. He couldn't help but kiss her white and tender face. He gently took Zhou Feng's pink arm, got up, and helped Zhou Feng press the quilt. He reluctantly left the bedroom and took the guards to Bailizhou.

Bailizhou is the core area of ​​Lin Chunhong, with strict surveillance, which is suitable for such a secret meeting. At the meeting, the envoys of the Pavilion first reported on all aspects of Bangtai over the past year. Although Lin Chunhong knew Bangtai well through the writing, he was far from detailed as the face-to-face report. Lin Chunhong listened with relish.

In terms of finance, Bangtai Group's monthly income is stable at more than 500,000 taels, but spending money is like flowing. Military expenditure accounts for nearly 40%, employee salaries account for 20%, education and engineering college expenses account for 10%, and some other fragments, such as more than 200,000 taels of silver paid to King Hui every year, accounting for 30%. The monthly fiscal revenue and expenditure are almost offset, and there is not much balance.

The main source of income at present is 50% of the profits of Bangtai Business, which accounts for about 60% of the entire Bangtai income, and the other 40% comes from taxes from Zhijiang tribe and Tusi tribe. Moreover, Zheng Tiancheng estimates that within three months, taxes and business income will each account for half of the country.

Lin Chunhong was also very happy, as if the Ming Empire's income was less than 10 million taels of silver every year. Wouldn't he be rich enough to rival a country? Lin Chunhong shook his head and drove away these thoughts. This account cannot be calculated like this.

In addition, the bill business is profitable and is currently expanding rapidly. At present, the principal rate of bills is 50%, and the principal reserve is 2.8 million taels of silver. The maximum value of issuing bills is 5.6 million taels, which is far from meeting Lin Chunhong's needs. After all, in such a huge economy as the Ming Dynasty, more than 5 million taels of silver cannot even splash a piece of water. At the meeting, Lin Chunhong directly ordered Zheng Tiancheng to increase the principal rate to 30%, increase the principal reserves and increase the supply of bills.

Immediately afterwards, Guo Mingyan reported on domestic industrial and commercial matters. At present, there are endless merchants in Yiling, Jingzhou, and all kinds of strange goods are emerging like bamboo shoots after a rain. Big merchants from all over the country saw the constant business opportunities in Yiling, Jingzhou, and went here to open workshops, and large-scale textile workshops, garment workshops, printing and dyeing workshops, papermaking workshops, and engraving workshops... In the fiscal revenue, the proportion of tax revenue is getting bigger and bigger, which is directly related to the increase in merchants.

In addition to the prosperity of domestic industry and commerce, Bangtai Business has also increased its expansion. Currently, the business is dominated by cotton textile industry, shipbuilding, steel smelting, iron making and transportation, and is striving to expand to sugar production. It has now established a large-scale sugarcane plantation in Suixi.

These made Lin Chunhong very satisfied and instructed Guo Mingyan to have a greater courage and strengthen the investment. He also promised that if there was a lack of funds, he would not hesitate to inject capital into the business.

In addition, Zhu Zhiyu's report to the Institute of Education and Engineering particularly surprised Lin Chunhong.

Since July this year, after Qian Qianyi and Zhang Pu went to Zhijiang to give lectures, the grand occasions of Jingzhou and Yiling have attracted the attention of scholars from all over the world. Many scholars came to Xingzhishu Hall to discuss the study of learning management and studying things. Lin Chunhong took the roster from Zhu Zhiyu and found that Fang Yizhi, Song Yingxing, Jie Xuan and others were listed.

Lin Chunhong was very excited. These people could not resist the temptation of studying things. The talented and intelligent people in the world have entered my trap. After their leisure time, they will definitely chat with them.

Then, after listening to the reports from others, Lin Chunhong finally focused his attention on Rongmei toast.

Lin Chunhong set the tone: There must be a battle with Rongmei Tusi, which is a need to expand the population of directly under the jurisdiction of the land and a need to open up Sichuan channels.

Focusing on this tone, the envoys spoke freely, and finally made a strategy through Lin Chunhong's decision.

Economically, immediately cut off any commercial transactions with Rongmei, block Rongmei's waterways, prevent any forces from trading with it, and make every effort to combat Rongmei's war potential.

Politically, we have sowed the relationship between the little toasts in Rongmei's territory and the little toasts who intend to resist Rongmei, and increased support for the little toasts who are interested in resisting Rongmei. We can not only provide money and grain, but also sell them plate armor and steel crossbows.

In terms of external contacts, strictly monitor Rong Mei's external channels, and do not care about Rong Mei's personal killing when she negotiates abroad, and try to cut off the possibility of Rong Mei's complaints to the court and the governor of Huguang as much as possible.

Of course, the most important thing is military. At present, Lin Chunhong's military force along the Qing River coast is only more than 5,000 archers of Li Huizhong, who are at a disadvantage compared to Rong Mei.

Lin Chunhong decided to defend first. With the Yangtze River Navy and three mountain camps, he could fully protect his foundation along the Qingjiang River. After the main force in the north came back, he would launch a counterattack.

Lin Chunhong ordered Li Mengshen's plundering fleet to return immediately and impose a blockade on the Yangtze River and Qing River. He also ordered Zhou Wang to lead three mountain camps to guard Yangbanqiao and block the road that Rong Mei invaded the Qing River.

In addition, Lin Chunhong has longer-term plans. He hopes to use this war to completely incorporate Yidu and Changyang counties in Yiling Prefecture into the Bangtai system.

After discussion, Lin Chunhong formulated a strict plan and immediately put it into practice when the time is right.

Now everything is ready, but the east wind is not there, and the court is only given the title of Lin Chunhong to quell the rebellion. Lin Chunhong believes that he has stuck Tian Chuchan's neck and Tian Chuchan cannot refuse. The difficulty lies in how to get the court to agree to him to lead his troops to quell the rebellion.
