I was a famous teacher in ancient times

Yang Xixuan set a two-year plan for himself. In the past two years, he will not expand. In two years, he will vigorously develop the two states of Ruide and focus on defense.

He didn't want Jinzhou's defection to drag him down, so Zhao Jiang's role would be great.

Zhao Jiang stood up with a firm voice, "I am confident that my subordinates will never let the lord down."

Yang Xixuan smiled, he likes smart and confident people, "I can give you support within two years, you not only have to win the Golden State, but also find ways to build and develop the Golden State, I hope that in two years the Golden State will not become My huge burden, do you understand?"

Zhao Chang understands what the lord means, let him seize the territory and build Jinzhou at the same time, "The subordinates will do their best."

Satisfied, Yang Xixuan found out the map of Jinzhou at the same time, "You should also find out if there are mines in Jinzhou."

Zhao Jiang scratched his hair in embarrassment, "There is no one here who knows how to investigate."

Yang Xixuan sighed, he has some on his side, but he is short of manpower, he has already dispatched all the people who know how to explore the terrain, it seems that he needs to train more manpower to explore the terrain and mineral veins.

Zhao Jiang hurriedly said: "Mr. Zhou said that Jinzhou is very suitable for growing several common medicinal materials. Mr. Zhou wants me to plant more medicinal materials and send them to Ruizhou in exchange for supplies."

Yang Xixuan's mood improved again, "Now there is a shortage of medicinal materials everywhere. Ruizhou has done a good job of researching medicinal materials, and has already produced a lot of patented medicines. You can take some with you when you leave."

Zhao Jiang has long seen the benefits of proprietary medicines. They don't need to be boiled, they can save a lot of firewood, and they are convenient to take. He made up his mind to go back and grow more medicinal materials.

Anyway, they are hiding in the mountains. The mountains are not suitable for growing food, but they are convenient for growing medicinal materials.

Zhao Jiang thought for a while and then proposed, "My lord, can I travel around in Dezhou, I want to learn from Dezhou's policies."

He can't learn from the development of Ruizhou, he can only start from Texas, which is also impoverished. He can lead people to do things, but governance is still lacking.

Although he can ask the two gentlemen for advice, he prefers to learn by himself, so as to find out the most suitable path for Golden State.

Yang Xixuan is liking Zhao Jiang more and more. He is indeed the person his brother-in-law often praises. He has ideas, ability, and what a good subordinate, "Yes, I will give you a pass token."

Dezhou is still under military control, and the entire Dezhou is divided into several pieces. Without tokens and guides, it is difficult for outsiders to move in Dezhou.

As time went by, newspapers about the Zhou Family Academy spread throughout the south unknowingly. Because Yang Xixuan had a relationship with the cannon, the entire southern power did not pay attention to him.

Various factions read the newspapers and did not understand the Zhou Family Academy. Many people thought that the Zhou Family Academy was like a well-known academy, and the books taught were still the Four Books and Five Classics.

Even though Zhou Yu said a lot of meaningful things, it still didn't attract much attention.

Of course, there are also those who are far-sighted. According to what Zhou Yu and his wife have done, they recognize the abilities and abilities of the husband and wife. You must know that Ruizhou's law code is not a secret, and has been secretly sent back by spies.

So some forces want to investigate the Zhou Family Academy.

As for the Ming family who had been in contact with Zhou Yu and his wife, the Ming family reacted the most, feeling the crisis intuitively through the newspaper.

Ming Jiao inspected the border of Jiaozhou and returned to Fucheng, when his father called him into the study, Ming Chen asked, "Did you read the newspaper?"

Ming Jiao looked tired, Jiaozhou was going to use troops, he hadn't had a good rest recently, "I've already seen it."

Ming Chen also feels sorry for his son's fatigue, but who is not tired in this world?

"What do you think?"

Ming Jiao drank a cup of strong tea to refresh himself, "Father, we have to admit that Yang Xixuan is capable of literature and martial arts, he also knows the way of imperial power and balance, and there are endless ways to win people's hearts."

The more he came into contact with Yang Xixuan, the more embarrassing he felt. Yang Xixuan hit him too hard.

Ming Chen was silent for a moment, "I regret it."

It is useless to regret every day.

Ming Jiao continued: "Father, you asked me what I think of the Zhou family school. I found out that when the Zhou family went south to settle down, Zhou Yu and his wife escorted Yang Xixuan to study with them, from Yang Xixuan down to Bai Lang and other students. Dad , This is enough to show the extraordinaryness of the Zhou Family Academy."

Ming Chen, "The extraordinary ones are Yang Xixuan's sister and brother-in-law."

Without these two, there would be no Zhou Family Academy.

Ming Jiao said in a low tone, "At the beginning, I thought about sending the children of the Ming family to the Zhou family school, but unfortunately Zhou Yu and his wife were in Fucheng at that time, and it was even more impossible to have a tense relationship later on."

Now he not only wants to send his child to the Zhou family school, he also wants to study, but unfortunately he can only think about it.

Ming Chen asked again, "The hydraulic loom was remodeled by sister Yang Xixuan. You said that the people who imitated the cannon were really Zhou Yu and his wife?"

He has been thinking about the cannon, he wants to know who made it, but whether it is in Texas or Ruizhou, Yang Xixuan's control is too strict, and the spies haven't sent any news back.

Ming Jiao pointed to the newspaper, "It's too high-profile. Even if other forces are suspicious of the Zhou Family Academy, Zhou Yu and his wife are still famous throughout the south. When the news of the hydraulic loom spreads, Mr. Yang will become more famous. I don't think so. Two gentlemen."

Ming Chen also thought so, "That's right, these two have gone back to teach, how could they be the ones who made cannons."

In Fucheng, Dezhou, Yang Xixuan held a letter from the Jingzhou Dong family in his hand. After reading the letter, he handed it to Mr. Zhong, "The Dong family wants to cooperate."

Zhong Yan read the letter quickly, and asked back: "In the future, the lord will eventually subdue the family. Will the lord prefer the Ming family or the Dong family?"

Yang Xixuan, "These two are rare smart people in troubled times."

Zhong Yan, "So the Dong family?"

The Ming family is stronger than the Dong family. The Ming family has taken root in Jiaozhou too deeply. If they don't break up, they will be in trouble if they take Jiaozhou down in the future.

Yang Xixuan chuckled, "I'll take it easy. As for the Dong family's willingness to cooperate, of course it's fine. I do need coal. We are backed by the sea and have ice-making methods. The freezing and fresh-keeping technology is mature. As long as the Dong family can afford it, I will do it." I can afford it."

Zhong Yan frowned, "It seems that the water shortage in Jingzhou is more serious than that in Jiaozhou."

Yang Xixuan, "Many rivers in Dezhou come from Jiaozhou, and Jiaozhou's water veins are also good, and Jiaozhou is also building dams. The Ming family is indeed dreadful."

Recently, many policies in Jiaozhou have been learned from him. He is not depressed. He hopes that the Ming family will do more. He believes that the future will belong to him.

In Shanghe Village, the school rested for a day. Only a small number of children in the school were local people, and the rest were far away from home. Most of the children were still in the school, although they did not put down their books during the rest.

Yang Xi and his wife wanted to have a good rest, but it was a pity that someone came to visit after sleeping late, and it was an acquaintance Zhao Haishang who came to visit.

Zhao Haishang did not come to Xiang County by himself, he also brought his in-laws and friends, and directly stated the purpose, "We want to order canned fruits and other products."

Yang Xi was refreshed, "Okay."

Zhou Yu looked at his daughter-in-law with a smile on her lips. The sea tax they thought could be put on the agenda, but first the sea merchants must realize the sweetness.
