I came to this world to enlighten the gods

Chapter 99 The Richest Man in the South China Sea
After drinking the rice porridge, Li Qing's pale face finally turned rosy. The maid brought two goose feather pillows to Li Qing's back. After a short rest, Li Qing felt that his body had gained some strength.

He asked in a weak voice, "Did anything major happen while I was in a coma?"
"What kind of government affairs are you still in charge of at this time, let's take a rest for a while." Li Qing hurriedly stopped him, what kind of government affairs are you still in charge of at this level.

Li Qing forced a smile and said, "I'm fine, let Yan Zhengyi talk."

How could his dignity be reassuring, Yan Zhengyi had no choice but to pick up the most important thing and said: "The most sensational thing in the county at present is that the families of thirteen county governors were collectively seduced by evil spirits."

Speaking of this, Yan Zhengyi couldn't help but look at Li Qing, feeling intuitively that this should be done by the lord, and only the lord is capable and dared to seduce the souls of the families of the thirteen prefects.

"I already know about this, you can talk about other important things," Li Qing cheered up and said.

Yan Zhengyi's expression changed. Li Qing was present at this time and there were many things that he couldn't talk about. Seeing that Li Qing looked tired, he planned to end the conversation as soon as possible.

"Not much else happened. Militaryly, General Wei Ziping has infiltrated Cangwu County according to the plan. Wu Yunjuan has conquered Beishan, Jingtian, and Xuanniao, and is starting to form the second banner, Xuanniao Banner. I just heard that Manting Over there, there were some complaints about Wu Yun's movements, and several nearby tribes were ready to move. General Wu wrote that he could handle it "

"You mean the Barbarian Court?"

Li Qing is very sensitive to this news. The Man God is the mountain god of Shaoshan, the highest peak in Jiaozhou. He is called the patron saint of the barbarians because he is worshiped by the barbarians. The Man Court is the place where the barbarians worship the barbarian gods. It is the god worshiped by hundreds of ethnic groups in Jiaozhou.

Shaking the Barbarian Court is no small matter!
These barbarian races are devout to the barbarian gods, and the anger of the barbarian court represents the vibration of all the barbarian races.

Li Qing said seriously: "You immediately notify Wu Yunju, and pay close attention to the movements of the barbarians. The other party is likely to organize a big move. When I recover, I will rush there in person."

"Yes"

Seeing that Li Qing attached great importance to this matter, Yan Zhengyi knew that there must be some negligence in it, so he didn't dare to disturb Li Qing any longer, so he left immediately.

After talking so much, Li Qing couldn't hold on any longer, so he asked the maid to remove the pillow and lie down on the bed to sleep.

I slept until the next morning when I finally woke up, feeling hungry, and hurriedly put on my clothes and got out of bed.

The maid always prepares light and delicious meals for Li Qing to enjoy when he wakes up.

After eating plain porridge and refreshing side dishes, I finally felt better.

Since his body could not lie down for a long time, he walked in the garden with the help of the maid, breathing in the fresh space and felt his stiff body relax a lot. The maid next to him smiled when she saw that Li Qing was in a good mood.

"The young master is in good health and the atmosphere in the mansion is much more relaxed."

With a smile on his face, Li Qing sighed, "I was careless."

The maid opened her eyes wide and said, "The young master is extremely intelligent, how can you be careless, even Master Wang said that the young master is a rare genius in the South China Sea for a thousand years."

"Who is Master Wang?" Li Qing asked doubtfully.

The maid said: "Of course it's the richest man in the South China Sea, Mr. Wang Zhengwang. You don't know, young master, Mr. Wang..." As she was speaking, she was suddenly startled when she saw Li Qing's gloomy face.

The General's Mansion uses military law to rule the family. The servants and maids in the mansion are strictly forbidden to communicate with outsiders. If there is any violation, they will be punished and expelled from the mansion, and if they are serious, they will be beaten to death with a stick. The maid's face turned pale with fright when she thought of this.

"Take it down, and deal with it according to the rules after the interrogation is clear"

Li Qing said with a blank face, the country has state laws, the family has family rules, there are always rules in everything, and he will not take the initiative to break the rules.

The maid knew Li Qing's character, trembling all over, she was taken away by the soldiers.

"It is said that Wang Zheng came to see me"

Li Qing ordered Wang Zheng to come to Wang Zheng. He was very interested in this legendary rich man. This man controls [-]% of the salt fields in the South China Sea. He is known as the richest man in the South China Sea. There are even rumors that this man is already the richest man in Jiaozhou, which is even more strange. The most important thing is that this person was born in an ordinary Yanding family. He started from scratch and built a huge family business. He is a legend in Jiaozhou.

Not long after, Wang Zheng was taken to the general's mansion.

Wang Zheng had a worried look on his face, he didn't know why the general's mansion brought him here suddenly, and when he saw that it was a young man who summoned him, he suddenly became calm.

This person should be Li Qing, the Pingman general who was rumored to be seduced by evil spirits.

The age of sixteen or seventeen is as young as the rumors, but his face is a little pale, his steps are sloppy, and he looks like he is just recovering from a serious illness.Seeing Li Qing was still unavoidably shocked, he was so young. Although he was called a legend in the business world, he was still far behind Li Qing.

Kneeling respectfully, he said: "Wang Zheng of the Caomin sees General Pingman."

"Wang Zheng, you're guilty of colluding with the servant girls in the mansion, you're guilty," Li Qing said sharply.

A trace of panic flashed across Wang Zheng's face, and then he respectfully said: "The grassroots plead guilty."

Li Qing was a little surprised by such a straightforward confession, and then he realized that since he couldn't deny this matter, he might as well simply confess, this person is very knowledgeable about current affairs.

After pondering for a moment, he said: "Since it is necessary to be punished, there is a saying in this court that there is a silver for the crime, so let's fine 10 taels of silver and put it into the public treasury."

"Thank you General"

Wang Zheng let out a sigh of relief, 10 taels of silver was just a drop in the bucket for him, he had long wanted to get in touch with the general, and it wasn't the silver that could attract Li Qing's attention.

Immediately said: "I heard that the general spent a lot of money training the new army, and the grass people are willing to donate [-]% of the profits of the saltworks as a way of expressing their hearts."

Salt profits are huge, and Nanhai is the largest salt producing place in Jiaozhou. The annual profit reaches one million taels of silver, and the third achievement is 30. And it happens every year, which is almost equivalent to the annual tax payment of Nanhai County.

Li Qing thought of the information collected by Tian Boyuan, and knew that this person had a bad relationship with the local county magistrate's family. Although he had wealth, he did not have the power to protect it, so he was particularly enthusiastic about power and position.

Instead of answering the matter of Wang Zheng's funding, he said: "There have always been six Caos in this county, divided into officials, households, li, workers, Xing, and soldiers. I plan to set up an additional merchant Cao under the general's mansion. this position".

"Thank you my lord"

Wang Zheng was ecstatic, and he agreed without any hesitation, and he didn't even know what this Shang Cao was doing.

Li Qing also saw this, this Wang Zheng is not generally keen on power, and said: "Jiaozhou is rich in minerals such as silver and copper, as well as local specialties such as pearls, spices, rhino horns, corals, parrots, and emeralds, which are even more famous in Daqing. One of the salt-producing areas in China, Jing and Yi prefectures mostly rely on the prefecture for salt, but Jiaozhou did not get much benefit from it.

I set up merchants to integrate the gold, silver, copper and iron mines in the territory, collect merchant taxes, and even establish merchant gangs to trade with the states in the Central Plains to support the army. I have twelve articles of association. You can read and implement them carefully. If anyone obstructs you, you can ask me to make the decision.”

"Thank you, my lord, for your promotion"

Wang Zhengjiu knew the profits after going through the mall for a long time. Among them, pearls, spices, rhino horns, corals and other special products were shipped to the Central Plains, and the profits were ten times and a hundred times.

After carefully reading the articles written by the lord, he admired Li Qing even more. The lord is only a teenager, but he knows so many ways of shopping malls. Even he has never thought about many of the rules. The more you taste, the more you can feel it. exquisite.

Reincarnated from a commercially developed world, he naturally knows about trade profits. Although this world does not have the commercial atmosphere of his previous life, it can also bring him a lot of profits to support the army, which can also reduce the burden on the people under his rule.

Governing a big country is like cooking a small fish. No matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat, let alone a piece of fat.
