Monument Yangmen

Chapter 670 The Disappeared Lu Mengzheng
Under the temptation of a lot of money, the businessmen fully demonstrated their character of not dying for money.

When they tested the route from Dengzhou to Liao Kingdom, there was no danger, and they transported a large amount of goods like a tide to Liao Kingdom.

Liao Kingdom's business, which seemed to be squeezed into bagasse, quickly swelled like fried dough sticks.

But the fallen leaves, the instigator, quietly sailed to Dongtou Island.

Dongtou Island is an archipelago. Apart from the main island, Dongtou Island, there are more than 100 other islands surrounding Dongtou Island. The area is small, but it is the favorite of pirates.

Don't think that there were no pirates in the Song Dynasty.

On the contrary, there were still many pirates in the Song Dynasty, among which Dongtou Island was the most.

Because Dongtou Island is the closest to Salmon Island, and Salmon Island is just the place where Da Song sent prisoners.

Some desperadoes who were dispatched to Shamen Island, after escaping from the guards of the yamen servants, fled to Dongtou Island by boat one by one.

There are also all the remnants of the previous dynasties, those of the Southern Tang, Wuyue, and Southern Han, and so on.

All in all, Dongtou Island is a den of pirates.

After Luo Ye led a group of people under his command to Dongtou Island, he used his powerful fists to declare sovereignty on Dongtou Island, and forcefully cleaned up the remnants of Dongtou Island.

They are all scumbags, and they are completely vulnerable to the attack and defense of the formally trained soldiers under Luo Ye's command.

Nearly 8000 pirates were formed into a huge infrastructure slave group, and began to build infrastructure on Dongtou Island.

Yang Qi ordered the deciduous leaves to build several sites, and all the deciduous leaves were built without falling.

It took two full months for the fallen leaves to clean up Dongtou Island.

Standing on the edge of the largest pier on Dongtou Island, Luo Ye was wearing a long gown, waiting for someone.

It didn't take long before I saw a large ship with the flag of the southern country slowly entering the pier.

Fallen Leaves rushed to meet her.

There is an important person on board.

Someone who means a lot to him.

A person who came to pick peaches after he took care of Dongtou Island.

When the big ship docked, the first to disembark from the big ship was a group of soldiers.

They were wearing black armor, and they couldn't see any faces at all.

Their faces are shrouded in visors.

"Where are the fallen leaves?"

The leader was a burly man, even with armor on his body, he still couldn't hide his burly.

Luoye stepped forward, cupped her hands and said, "I am Luoye."

The burly man glanced at the fallen leaves, and asked in a cold voice: "Can the warehouse for hoarding goods be built?"

Luo Ye nodded, "According to Master Hou's order, all the warehouses have been built."

The burly man said indifferently: "From today onwards, we will officially take over the warehouse. Tell your people to stay away from the warehouse, otherwise they will be killed."

Luo Ye nodded and smiled, "Understood."

Afterwards, the burly man didn't chat with Luo Ye, he asked Luo Ye for two guides, and then led his soldiers to the two islands where the warehouse was located.

The soldiers of the southern kingdom left.

From the big boat behind them, a person wearing a blue gown and carrying a large cloth package came down.

This person is the one who really came to pick the fallen peaches.

An ordinary person, a serious scholar.

He used to be an official, or a senior official.

Luo Ye knew this person, and when he saw this person, he took the initiative to greet him, "Mr. Lu..."

The middle-aged man who was replaced by Mr. Lu gave a wry smile, stuffed the package on his back into Luoye's arms, and sighed, "I escaped from your hands at the beginning, but I didn't expect to turn around and fall into your hands again.

What a trick!Why……"

Luo Ye was carrying Mr. Lu's package, grinning and said: "If you hadn't offended Huhou back then, you might have become a political advisor now. So, I can't blame good luck, I blame you for offending the wrong person.

But it's okay now, we will stir the horse spoon in the same pot in the future, and we will be a family. "

"family?"

Mr. Lu was taken aback, and then roared and cursed: "Who is your family? If it wasn't for that shameless Su Yijian who tricked my family to go to the southern country, I would be with you? Maybe I'm being re-accepted now." Called back to court.

You not only designed to frame me, but also kidnapped my family members, you are simply shameless.Who is a family with you shameless people? "

Luo Ye didn't care about Mr. Lu's abuse. He grinned and said, "Do you have a choice now? You know so many secrets about Huhou, you thought Huhou would let you go easily."

Mentioning this, the expression on Mr. Lu's face became more and more bitter, "I didn't know Yang Yansi's strength before, so I encouraged the third prince to fight against Yang Yansi. I thought that I could be a hero of Conglong in the future. But I didn't expect that Yang Yansi He got it to Yongzhou in one fell swoop. Only then did he have the chance to discover that Yang Yansi was a wolf in sheep's clothing.

I lost at the hands of a bad wolf, and I was not wronged. "

Mr. Lu paused, and asked Luoye hesitantly, "From my dispatch to Yongzhou, to my design to get me to the southern country, all of this is too strange. You used to be someone close to Yang Yansi, can you tell me. Has Yang Yansi been following me for a long time?"

Luo Ye hesitated for a moment, thinking that the guy in front of him is now his own, and said honestly: "When Huhou established the Southern Kingdom, he always felt that there was a big gap in the officials of the Southern Kingdom, and he needed to recruit a group of people to help him. He governs the southern kingdom.

Huhou once made a list, and your name, Lu Mengzheng, happened to be on the list. "

That's right!

This person called Mr. Lu was dispatched to Yongzhou, and when Zhao Guangyi remembered that he wanted to recall him, Lu Mengzheng found no such person.

From Lu Mengzheng being dispatched to Yongzhou, to getting Lu Mengzheng to the Southern Kingdom, all the deciduous leaves were involved behind it, so he understood the process of Lu Mengzheng's being tricked to the Southern Kingdom.

In fact, it is very simple. Lu Mengzheng went to Yongzhou alone to take up the post. Less than two months after he took office, his family also went to Yongzhou.

Coincidentally at this time, a rebellion broke out among the Liao people in the mountains of Yongzhou, and the target was the place that Lu Meng was governing.

These rebellious bureaucrats arbitrarily tied Lu Mengzheng and his family to the southern country.

Lu Mengzheng, who had just arrived in the southern country, resisted fiercely.

In the end, Su Yijian, that black-bellied guy, coerced and lured him into signing a document.

A document proving his treason.

Then he had to give in.

Su Yijian not only threatened Lu Mengzheng to sign the treasonous document, but also detained his family members.

Under double coercion, Lu Mengzheng had to help Yang Qi.

After serving as a government official in the Southern Kingdom for two years, he was brought to Dongtou Island by Su Yijian, and came to help Luo Ye manage Dongtou Island and Shamen Island together.

Hearing Luo Ye say that Yang Qizao missed him, Lu Mengzheng didn't know whether to cry or laugh.

He only hoped that he wasn't the one who was punished the most by Yang Qi.

Otherwise, when everyone gets together in the future and chats about the process of being cheated by Yang Qi, he will look very embarrassed.

"How many of the people on Huhou's previous list have surrendered to Huhou?"

Lu Meng asked tentatively.

Luo Ye lowered her head and calculated, then said, "Thirty percent..."

Lu Mengzheng nodded and said with emotion: "To be able to poach [-]% of the people from the imperial court is enough to show that Huhou is very remarkable."

Luo Ye bared her teeth and smiled, but said nothing.

It will be very miserable if a bully is cheated, but it will not be so miserable if there are a group of bullies accompanying him.

Lu Mengzheng chatted with Luoye for a while, and then quickly entered the state of his official. On the way back to the island's temporary government office, Lu Mengzheng asked Luoye, "What is the construction of Dongtou Island now?"

Luo Ye pointed to the slaves who were still working not far away, and said, "The places requested by Hu Hou have already been built. Now the roads on the island are being built, as well as the inns, shops, and warehouses that will be used at the pier in the future." .

What Huhou means is to build this place as a sea transit place, which may develop to the size of a harbor city in the future.Therefore, the construction of the foundation must keep up.

Moreover, the permanent population of the island should be around [-] to [-] in the future, and the places where these people need to live must also be emptied quickly. "

Lu Mengzheng frowned, and asked, "Is it a bit fast?"

Luo Ye smiled and said: "Not fast! Those southern soldiers who followed me have been wandering overseas for more than half a year, and they will probably settle here in the future. Many of them have already suggested to me to take their family members over and let them live together. Live here.

Moreover, although the Song court also gave us Salmon Island.But Huhou doesn't seem to have any intention of staying on Shamen Island.He asked us to properly clean up some of the heinous criminals inside after taking over Salmon Island, and then move the rest to Dongtou Island, focusing on the development of Dongtou Island. "

Lu Mengzheng clicked his lips and said with emotion: "It seems that this Dongtou Island will not be taken back after the Song Dynasty."

Luo Ye smiled and said: "Not necessarily, as long as Da Song is stronger than us, they can take it back at any time."

Lu Mengzheng smiled wryly and shook his head.

Lu Meng has seen with his own eyes how strong the Southern Kingdom is under Yang Qi's construction.

In terms of agriculture, the twice-cropped and three-cropped rice a year almost provided the people in the southern countries with inexhaustible food.

Not only that, the southern country exports tens of millions of tons of grain to Song Dynasty every year.

Even so, in the barns all over the southern country, the piles of grain are still full.

Every year when it was time to pay taxes, the people in the southern country handed in their food without much urging from the government.

There are even some second-hand goods who threaten the government to charge more food.

When other people know about this, they may think these bastards are stupid, but Lu Mengzheng thinks that these bastards are smart.

Because their food is moldy when they are piled up at home, it is better to hand it over to the government directly.

The government of the Southern Kingdom has a policy that every year the large grain collectors will have their children's school fees reduced.

Most of the children in the southern country have already left the stage of literacy, and now they are studying in the county schools in the county.

For some children in remote areas far from the county seat, the annual tuition fees, accommodation fees, and transportation expenses add up to a large amount.

And once they are rated as major grain requisition households, they can save a large part of money and grain.

In comparison, the extra food they handed over is a drop in the bucket for them.

Culturally, basic education has been implemented in almost all places in the southern country. In every village, village and town, all children who have reached the age of eight must go to government-run private schools to study.

No reason for refusal is permitted.Even some adults are among those who are forced to study.

There are higher-level county schools in the county, and there are countless subjects in the county schools, covering all walks of life.

There are academies in Fucheng, and almost all the academies are places for cultivating high-level talents and top technical talents in various industries.

There are also the two largest university halls in Seoul Metropolitan City.

One literate and one martial arts.

Cultivate more advanced talents.

All the talents who come out of the two great halls are basically talents who walk sideways in the southern country.

It's just that the two colleges have not been established recently, and there are not many students who can be admitted to the two colleges, so it looks a bit depressed.

However, Lu Mengzheng can be sure that if Nanguo is given another ten years, Nanguo will not only be able to achieve the goal of universal literacy, but also attract a large number of high-level talents.

And these, Da Song can't do it.

Not to mention ten years for the Song Dynasty, even if it is given 100 years for the Song Dynasty, it is impossible for the education of the Song Dynasty to reach the level of the Southern Kingdom.

When Lu Mengzheng was studying the policy of the Southern Kingdom with Su Yijian, he witnessed with his own eyes that no matter what level of officials in the Southern Kingdom, they never withheld money for education.

The scarecrow, the secret service agency in the south, checks money and money related to education at every level, watching from the beginning to the end, and no one dares to embezzle it.

Once discovered, the whole family was dispatched to the account of the Queen of the Queen.

Under the account of the female devil queen, that is a treatment worse than death.

He also witnessed with his own eyes that when Su Yijian approved education funds, the amount of money approved every year was as high as tens of millions of taels.

Da Song couldn't do the above two simple aspects.

In terms of commerce, the commerce in the southern country is very prosperous, and the degree of prosperity even exceeds that of the Song Dynasty.

Nanguo attaches great importance to business and protects the interests of businessmen.The southern country has very complete commercial laws, and has a government that specializes in commercial management.

Merchants can not only do business in the southern country safely, but also don't have to worry about being missed by others because they make a lot of money.

Since the commercial laws of the Southern Kingdom were passed on, businessmen from all over the world have desperately entered the Southern Kingdom.

Not to mention anything else, there are tens of thousands of household registration documents approved by the Southern Kingdom court every year for merchants to settle down.

So many merchants entered the southern country, which not only drove the commercial prosperity of the southern country, but also brought huge wealth to the southern country.

The original two ports in Southland have also been expanded to four.

Every day, you can see many businessmen traveling from south to north, staying in the southern country.

In terms of military affairs, the southern country can be said to be very crazy.

National military service system.

This is a military service system that Lu Mengzheng has never heard of.

Not only men have to join the army after reaching a certain age, but even women join the army after they reach adulthood.

However, women in the southern country did not have much resistance to joining the army. On the contrary, many women enthusiastically joined the army.

The reason...
