Chapter 96
The next morning.

Gao Shun left Shanhai County with the four hundred camp.

With the departure of Gao Shun, Tiger Roaring Camp also started a new training.

Although Tiger Roaring Camp is the elite of Beishan Province's garrison troops, its combat effectiveness is slightly worse than that of the trapped camp, especially in terms of will to fight, it is far inferior to the trapped camp.

The will to fall into the battle, there is no life or death!
Not all soldiers have the will to die.

The remaining [-] trap camp fighters will train the [-] Tiger Roaring Camp into a new trap camp, and Gao Shun who left will also train a more powerful trap camp.

With the arrival of Tiger Roaring Camp, Shanhai County's army has grown a lot again.

Today Shanhai County has [-] Tiger Roaring Battalions, [-] Flying Tiger Battalions, [-] City Guards, [-] Expedition Fleet, and [-] Near-voyage Fleet, totaling more than [-] troops.

Among them, the Flying Tiger Camp was stationed in the western mountains and was responsible for deterring those cottages and preventing the mountain people from rioting. The City Guard Army was responsible for guarding the city gates and city walls of Shanhai County.

The expedition fleet escorted the sea trade fleet, and the near-voyage fleet was dominated by Yihetang, who collected protection fees in cooperation with Yihetang.

As for the Tiger Roaring Camp, Zheng Ming did not assign them any tasks, but just let them train in the camp.

The white horses pass the gap, and the sun flies.

And far 40 years august.

The road from Shanhai County to Beibianfu was finally repaired.

Zheng Ming stood in the middle of the road on horseback, looking at the rolling mountains, his heart was filled with peace.

More than 8000 people were invested in the front and back, and it took more than seven months and cost 500,000 taels of silver. He finally repaired the road.

Once this road is opened, Shanhai County will no longer be blocked, and it will be completely presented to everyone in the Dali Dynasty.

This road connects Shanhai County and Dali, and also connects him with the imperial court.

In the future, he will no longer be the overlooked Prince of Shanhai, but the fifth prince standing in front of him.

"Your Highness, it's time to start!" Xin Qiji walked to Zheng Ming's side and said softly.

Zheng Ming turned his head and looked behind him.

The carriages formed a long queue, like a long dragon with no end in sight.

Not all horse-drawn carts, but also ox carts, donkey carts, and mule carts. No matter what kind of livestock pulls, they will all be collectively referred to as horse-drawn carts for the time being.

These carriages came from various chambers of commerce in Shanhai County, and the hundreds of carriages at the top belonged to his Shanhai Chamber of Commerce.

Next, they will go to Beishan Province to sell all the commercial goods accumulated in Shanhai County for three months.

Looking at the long queue, Zheng Ming grinned and said, "Let's start then."

"Go ahead and tell them that Shanhai County is no longer the backcountry it used to be. In the future, Shanhai County will be the most prosperous place in the Dali Dynasty."

Xin Qiji took a step forward, reached out and waved before the convoy.

"set off!"

click, click~~
The wheels turned, one or two carriages slowly moved forward, and the drivers were all smiles and excited.

Looking at the fleet that was getting farther and farther away, Zheng Ming narrowed his eyes.

"Dali Dynasty, feel the charm of business!"

He has been waiting for this day for a long time.

This is his first step towards the Dali Dynasty in the true sense.

If those were all layouts before, then today is the time to start harvesting.

Some fruits are ready to be picked.

For example, Si Jianmen.

"Your Highness, let's go back." Xin Qiji said softly.

Zheng Ming glanced at the end of the mountain road and nodded.

"Go back and prepare, the silver dollar can be issued."

Zheng Ming has been preparing since he decided to cast silver dollars.

Not only established a mint, but also transferred Gong Shuqiu to the mint to study the minting machinery.

Gong Shuqiu and a dozen craftsmen worked together for three months before they built a machine called a screw press, which can quickly cast various silver and copper coins with very fine and beautiful patterns and textures.

In fact, as early as two months ago, the mint had already started to manufacture silver and copper coins. At present, the mint's warehouse has stored silver coins and copper coins with a total value of more than 100,000 taels.

After Zheng Ming returned to the palace, before he could sit down and drink a cup of tea, the black devil came running.

"His Royal Highness, the Lord of the Rain has sent a message to come back and ask His Highness, do you want to continue to expand on the Siyu Island?" Black Demon said.

In the past six months, Yuhuatian has not been idle. Taking advantage of the chaos of Siyu Island, it has continued to expand the Siyuan Kingdom. Now the Siyuan Kingdom is no longer the down-and-out family it used to be. Even the army has expanded more than ten times, and the standing army has reached more than 10,000 people.

The overall strength has already ranked in the forefront of many famous countries.

Zheng Ming sat at the desk, shook his head and said, "Forget it, let him come back first."

Now that the situation on Siyu Island has stabilized, and all countries have stopped their expeditions, if the Siyuan Kingdom continues to expand at this time, it is likely to face a boycott of many big names.It may even attract the attention of the shogunate.

As for overthrowing the entire Eastern Ying Dynasty, Zheng Ming never thought about it.

That was a dynasty, even if it was a relatively weak dynasty, it could not be overthrown easily.

What's more, he is still an outsider and has no absolute strength. It is a fool's dream to rely on conspiracy and tricks to destroy a dynasty.

The Black Demon nodded in response, and said, "Your Highness, an official document has been sent from the Great Zhou Dynasty."

"Official text!" Zheng Ming was surprised. "They sent official texts to this king? Are you kidding me?"

He is the county king of Dali, and not from the Zhou Dynasty, so there is no reason to send him an official letter.

After taking the official document handed over by the black devil, Zheng Ming opened it and read it.

After reading it, he couldn't help laughing.

"It seems that the Great Zhou court is really messed up!"

The official text was sent in the name of the Rites of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the reason was salt.

In the past six months, the Great Zhou Dynasty has been wrangling with Dali because of this matter, and will send a letter of credentials every once in a while, but needless to say, all of them were sent back by Zheng Qingsong.

For this reason, the Great Zhou Dynasty was furious, but there was nothing they could do.

Because Dali is stronger than Da Zhou.

Martial arts prevailed in the Dali Dynasty, and the military strength was still very strong. Although the royal family and the Bailianzong had constant disputes, Zheng Qingsong had been sitting on the throne for 40 years, and his control over the court had almost reached its peak. It is stable.

In contrast, there were many problems in the Great Zhou Dynasty, such as suspicion of the main country, corrupt officials, lax military, chaos in the sects, the rise of noble families, and so on.

These problems made the Great Zhou Dynasty seem particularly powerless.

If it weren't for Zheng Qingsong's age now and he was too lazy to toss, he might be able to bite off a piece of fat from the Great Zhou Dynasty.

It is precisely because of this that the Great Zhou Dynasty did not directly destroy the fleet of the Shanhai Chamber of Commerce. They were afraid of causing a war.

Zheng Ming so blatantly sold snow salt to the Great Zhou Dynasty, and it was precisely this point.

In the Golden Dynasty, Zheng Ming did not sell snow salt, but only traded regular commodities, and he honestly paid taxes.

The reason is that the Golden Dynasty is not afraid of Dali.

man!It's just bullying.

The Eastern Ying Dynasty is the softest, and Zheng Ming even sells ordinary sea salt.

The Great Zhou Dynasty was next, so they played a little trick.

The Dajin Dynasty was the toughest, and Zheng Ming was also afraid that they would go crazy, so he only made regular transactions.

"Where are their people?" Zheng Ming asked.

"Master Xin arranged for them to rest in the other courtyard of the county government office." The Black Demon replied.

Zheng Ming held his chin and thought for a while, and said, "Bring me to meet, this king wants to see what they are thinking."

The black demon bowed and retreated.
