[Lv Weibin successfully promoted the land tax system in Yuhang, and the Great Zhou Dynasty's national fortune: +10000 points! ]
[Tang Yan successfully incorporated Dahe's colony in Southeast Asia, Da Zhou's national fortune: +10000 points! ]
what?
Li Tian quickly opened the system prompt.
The system's data described the information in detail. After reading it, Li Tian almost fainted from anger!
Lu Weibin!
You are such a jerk!
I sent you to Huajiang Prefecture to be a cruel official!
What kind of magic are you changing?
Since Lu Weibin took office in Huajiang Prefecture, he came into conflict with local gentry over issues related to land and factories.
Then he presented the complaint to the emperor, and Li Tian rewarded him with the imperial sword.
This confirmed Lu Weibin's authority.
With the support of the emperor, the plan of equalizing the land tax was quickly promoted in Huajiang Prefecture.
Li Tian quickly used his clairvoyance to take a look.
The entire Huajiang Prefecture's farmland was connected, and there were enthusiastic farmers everywhere.
White smoke was billowing from all the workshops in Huajiang Prefecture.
The government-run silk reeling workshop only had to work for four hours a day.
After completing the work, Lu Weibin also hired more than ten poor scholars to teach the workers in the silk reeling workshop to read.
Although the brocade weaving workshops run by wealthy gentry had a slightly higher intensity of work, the wages were higher than those in the government-run silk reeling workshops.
There are also many workers working diligently.
The local population of Huajiang Prefecture is not enough to supply these workshops.
Poor people from many surrounding counties came to Huajiang Prefecture to work.
My Huajiang Prefecture!
How did Lu Weibin make him like this!
Li Tianqi felt dizzy!
What made Li Tian even more depressed was that the Yuhang governor immediately followed up and announced the implementation of the land tax system throughout Yuhang.
At present, the land annexation problem in Yuhang has been greatly alleviated.
Ships from the Huajiang River estuary were arriving at the port one after another.
From Ryukyu, Japan, Korea, and even from Southeast Asia.
These merchant ships were loaded with goods from the Great Zhou and sailed back to their own countries.
The products of Da Zhou have become best-sellers in all these countries!
Now in Japan, if you don’t have a set of brocade clothes from the Great Zhou Dynasty, you cannot be called a noble!
You should use the porcelain from the Great Zhou Dynasty when eating and drinking.
You have to wear brocade from the Great Zhou Dynasty.
When writing, you have to use the wolf hair brush from the Da Zhou Dynasty.
The trend of the Great Zhou swept across Japan.
This was not only true for Japan, but also for Goryeo.
All the royal family and ministers of Goryeo were detained in Kyoto to study.
Of course, the ministers who remained in Goryeo were unable to handle state affairs.
Therefore, the entire Goryeo court is now controlled by the Great Zhou's pacification envoy.
Under the control of the Goryeo pacification envoy.
Commodities such as porcelain and silk also flowed into Beimang through trade with Goryeo.
These trades brought in large quantities of livestock.
The royal families of Ryukyu and other Southeast Asian countries were also purchasing goods crazily.
Li Tian was almost fainted with anger. What on earth did Lu Weibin do?
Isn’t this guy a cruel official?
Didn’t he force Gao Yao to death?
How come he suddenly became so capable!
You kid!
Only then did Li Tian realize that this guy was not a cruel official at all!
He is obviously a wise minister!
How abominable!
After finally calming down, Li Tian saw that Tang Yan's national fortune points had increased by 10,000, and his blood pressure suddenly soared.
How could my elder brother-in-law stab me in the back after going to Southeast Asia?
After looking through the system records again, Li Tianqi was furious!
Tang Yan set out from the Xiangjiang River and defeated the Limas fleet of the Great Dutch Indian Company.
Tang Yan didn't hesitate and directly interrogated Limas about their colonies in Southeast Asia.
Tang Yan simply led his fleet to Southeast Asia and began to take over the Dahe colony.
There are mainly two major countries in Southeast Asia.
Lesser Luzon and Kalimantan.
Kalimantan is a large island, inhabited entirely by indigenous people.
There were also many immigrants from the Great Zhou in Kalimantan who could not make a living in the Great Zhou and went to Southeast Asia.
The natives of Kalimantan are still at the tribal stage, not much different from wild monkeys in the jungle.
Dahe occupied several ports in Kalimantan and traded with the people of Dazhou and the indigenous people in Southeast Asia.
The geographical locations of these ports are good and the surrounding areas have been cleared.
Dahe even spent a huge amount of money to build a fortress at the port.
However, these fortifications had no resistance at all against Tang Yan's cannons.
With Limas, the traitor, Tang Yan took all the colonies of Kalimantan into his pocket.
Further south of Kalimantan is Little Luzon.
Little Luzon is a little more civilized than Kalimantan, at least it has a king.
Lesser Luzon is very large, but it is made up of scattered small islands.
Tang Yan led the fleet south, and the King of Luzon immediately came out to greet him.
Before the maritime ban, the King of Luzon wanted to trade with the Great Zhou.
However, the Great Zhou implemented a maritime ban, and Little Luzon cut off ties with the Great Zhou.
After Little Luzon learned about the powerful deeds of Tang Yan's fleet in Kalimantan, it directly expressed its willingness to become a vassal state of Great Zhou.
Of course Tang Yan did not dare to make a decision on his own. He asked the King of Luzon to send an envoy north to Kyoto to pay homage.
The King of Little Luzon readily stated that the islands occupied by Dahe could be leased to Dazhou as long as Tang Yan was willing.
Although Little Luzon also engages in trade, all of their business is offshore.
So they have no idea how important these islands are.
After studying the map, Tang Yan discovered that the Dahe people had a very sharp vision.
The most critical strait among them is called Malu Strait.
It is an important node for Dahe to go to the East.
From here you can go north to Da Zhou, or you can go to Goryeo and Japan.
To the west, you can go to the Dai Viet Kingdom, which borders the Da Zhou.
If you go further west, there is another big country.
After Tang Yan's research, it was found that the country was the Tianzhu mentioned in "Journey to the West: The Demons Strike Back".
Follow the map of the Dahe people.
Continuing westward along the coastline of India is Persia.
Tang Yan had also read many miscellaneous books. He soon discovered through research that the customs of Persian countries were very similar to those of the Western Regions countries recorded in history books!
In other words, the Western Regions are also the Persian region!
The sea and the land are connected!
Since the rise of Northern Mang, the Great Zhou and the Western Regions have been disconnected.
The once prosperous Western Silk Road was also completely blocked.
Emperors of previous dynasties had also thought about contacting the Western Regions and attacking the Northern Mang together.
However, there has been no news since the delegation was sent out.
It is actually possible to reach various countries in the Western Regions by sea!
Going further west along the countries in the Western Regions is a terrifying red area.
The natives there are all dark-skinned and are basically at the tribal stage.
The red area is full of plague and does not have many resources.
The Dutch only occupied a few ports.
If you follow this red area westward and northward, you will reach Western countries.
The ground is indeed square!
Western countries must be the end of the world!
Tang Yan firmly believed that his philosophy was correct and was eager to set sail.
But as a result of his actions, Little Luzon declared itself a vassal state of the Great Zhou.
They also occupied more than ten colonies in Dahe at once.
The entire Nanyang once again fell under the influence of the Great Zhou.
Li Tian was so angry when he saw the country's fortune soaring!
Lu Weibin and Tang Yan!
I cannot coexist with you!
