The ministers begged me to ascend the throne

The trade conference and the military parade have ended for several days, and the foreigners and foreign guests have left the Marsh Mansion one after another. However, the impact of the trade conference and the military parade has not disappeared, but has been deeply engraved in everyone's minds. heart.

Let’s talk about the people of Marsh Mansion first. The trade conference has a great influence on them, and of course it is a good influence. During the trade conference, the people of Marsh Mansion made a lot of money. The money they have made in these few days is more than they have made in the past few decades, or even more than they have made in a lifetime or two.

In addition to making money, the most beneficial thing for the people of Marsh Mansion is their increased knowledge. They saw many things they had never seen before from foreign merchants and foreign merchants, and also learned many useful things from them.

In the past, the people of Marsh Mansion were trapped in the fields. Every day, they either hunched over and worked in the fields, or were forced to do various hard labor by the officials of Marsh Mansion. All they see is endless work and despair. But now, they see a new world beyond the fields and see hope.

After the trade conference, the people of Marsh Mansion were completely convinced of Zhao Yao, His Highness the King of Han, and no longer had any doubts about him.

In the minds of the people, Zhao Yao is no longer His Royal Highness the King of Han, but a "living Bodhisattva" who saves them from their miserable days. If someone speaks ill of Zhao Yao, the people will never let him go.

If the trade conference affected the lives of the people in Marsh Mansion. Then, the military parade changed the attitude of the people of Marsh Mansion towards Zhou Dynasty.

The military parade made the people of Marsh House involuntarily feel a strong sense of pride and pride. They felt extremely honored when watching the military parade.

Whether they are the people of Marsh Prefecture or the people of other Lingnan prefectures, they have never considered themselves to be the people of the Great Zhou since the founding of the Great Zhou. Of course, it's not that they can't forget the past. Even if the previous dynasty is still there, they do not consider themselves to be the people of the previous dynasty.

The people of Lingnan have never considered themselves to be subjects of any dynasty. They always feel that they are outcasts and sinners.

The collapse of the previous dynasty was of no concern to the people of Lingnan. The establishment of a new dynasty did not matter to them. No matter it was the previous dynasty or the new dynasty, the court did not treat them as human beings. Whether they were officials from the previous dynasty or officials from the new dynasty, the imperial court sent them to Lingnan to supervise and exploit them. This has always been the case. Therefore, they have no sense of belonging to Dazhou and never consider themselves to be the people of Dazhou.

Last year, the King of Han of the Great Zhou Dynasty came to Lingnan and came to Marsh Mansion. The people of Marsh Mansion never recognized him and felt that he was no different from the previous officials. Even though His Highness the King of Han did a lot of good things for the people last year, the people still hesitated, always feeling that His Highness the King of Han had an ulterior motive for doing so.

At the beginning of the trade conference, the people of the Marsh Mansion still felt that His Highness the King of Han was not well-intentioned for holding this trade conference. It was not until they made money during the trade conference and His Highness the King of Han did not send anyone to ask them to pay, that they believed His Highness the King of Han. The trade conference is not held to harm them.

During the trade conference, Zhao Yao allowed the people of Marsh Mansion to do business freely and did not charge them money, as long as they obeyed the rules honestly.

The people of Marsh Mansion did not believe that His Highness the King of Han did not accept their money at first. They always thought that His Highness the King of Han would take away all the money they earned after the trade conference, but it did not happen. Not only that, during the trade conference, they were bullied, and His Highness the King of Han would send people to protect them and prevent them from being wronged at all, which moved them very much. If something happens, His Highness the King of Han really makes the decision for them.

They will always remember that the patrolling adults said that they were the subjects of His Highness the King of Han, and that His Highness the King of Han would not let them be bullied by outsiders for the sake of outsiders. While trade conferences are important, they are not as important. In the heart of His Highness the King of Han, the common people are the most important.

The people of Marsh Mansion initially sneered at these words. They felt that His Highness the King of Han was talking nicely, but they soon discovered that these words were true.

Before the end of the trade conference, the people of Marsh Mansion had already identified themselves as subjects of His Highness the King of Han, but they did not identify themselves as people of Zhou Dynasty until the military parade.

Watching the military parade made their blood boil. At that moment, they felt proud to be the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty. However, what is more, they are proud to be the subjects of His Highness the King of Han.

After watching the military parade, the people of Marsh Mansion felt not only proud, but also at ease. They saw how powerful the personal guards of His Highness the King of Han were, and they believed that those foreigners would not dare to bully them or fight with them anymore. They no longer have to worry about dying in battles.

In the past few years, Annan was dishonest and invaded southern Xinjiang. At that time, Lingnan was also affected. Many people and their families died at the hands of the Annamites.

At first, when war broke out in the previous dynasty, Lingnan was not affected much because of its remoteness. Although the people in Lingnan live a hard life, they live a relatively stable life. They never thought that Annan would attack southern Xinjiang, breaking their long-standing stability, causing their family to be destroyed, and their wives to be separated.

When it comes to the battle that year, the people in Lingnan still have lingering fears. They don't want to suffer the pain of war again. Now, seeing with their own eyes how powerful the personal guards of His Highness the King of Han were, and seeing the foreigners who came to attend the trade conference were frightened with fear on their faces, they felt happy and extremely safe at the same time. At that moment, they knew that as long as His Highness the King of Han was around, they would never be bullied by foreigners.

The people most affected by the trade conference are the people of Marsh Mansion, followed by businessmen from other places. During the trade conference, businessmen from other places made a lot of money.

In fact, for foreign businessmen, making money is secondary; the main thing is to do long-term business with foreigners. Their main purpose of coming to the trade conference is to do business with foreign countries and make money from foreign countries. Of course, there are also good things from foreign countries brought back to Dazhou for sale.

During these days, foreign merchants signed many business deals with foreign merchants, many of which were long-term deals, which made both parties very satisfied.

In Marsh Mansion, foreign businessmen found that it was not only full of business opportunities, but also very convenient. They decided to put more effort into doing business in Marsh Mansion after they returned. Before coming to the trade conference, they didn't have much hope, but they didn't expect that His Highness the King of Han gave them a big surprise.

Foreign businessmen unanimously feel that the potential for future development of Marsh Mansion is very great. If they do not seize the opportunity to do business in Marsh Mansion now, it will be difficult for them to get a share of the pie in the future. Now that everything has just begun in the Marsh Mansion, they have to seize the opportunity first so that they can get a seat. They believe that they don't have to wait for several years, but only need to wait for two years, and their business in Marsh Mansion will be bigger than that in other places. Discerning businessmen all feel that Marsh Mansion has great business potential, and will move the center of their family business to Marsh Mansion.

Gentile merchants had the same idea. They also decided to invest more energy and financial resources in Marsh Mansion to seize the opportunity now.

As for the shock brought by the military parade to foreign merchants, it did not dampen their determination to do business in Marsh Mansion. As long as they do business honestly in the Marsh Mansion, His Royal Highness the King of Han's personal guards will not do anything to them. Of course, they hope that their emperor will not be crazy and start a war with Zhou Dynasty, otherwise they will also be implicated.

Not all foreign merchants returned to China, leaving some to look after shops and do business in Marsh Mansion. Before the end of the trade conference, many foreign merchants had rented shops and opened shops.

Zhao Yao had previously built many houses on both sides of the main road to serve as shops. When the trade conference first started, many shops were empty. However, within a few days all the empty shops were robbed, and many foreign and foreign businessmen failed to grab the shops, which made them very anxious. They ran to find Zhao Yao, who told them that they would continue to build houses and they could make reservations in advance. When the shops were built, they could rent them directly. Therefore, before the new store was built, it was booked by many foreign and foreign businessmen.

In addition to shops, foreign and foreign businessmen naturally also want to live in Marsh Mansion. However, the residential area in Marsh Mansion has not yet been built. Foreign businessmen from other places can make an agreement in advance, or purchase homesteads and build their own houses freely.

Far-sighted foreign businessmen saw the current cheap housing and land prices in Marsh Mansion and decided to buy houses and land in advance. After a few years, no, two years, the house prices and land prices in Marsh Mansion will increase several times, and may even be as expensive as those in the capital.

Seeing many people making reservations for houses and land, Zhao Yao immediately had an idea in his mind. In Zhao Yao's dream, there was real estate in the world, which was specially used to sell houses. He thought that a new department could be established under the Ministry of Industry to be responsible for selling houses and land.

The Minister of Industry was summoned. After hearing what Zhao Yao said about the establishment of a new department, he agreed very much. Since the end of the trade conference, their industrial department has become very busy. Before the trade conference starts, their Ministry of Industry will be busy building many houses. After the trade conference, the number of houses to be built increased several times.

"Your Highness, there are too many people booking shops and houses, and we don't have enough manpower." So many people booked shops and houses, which made the Minister of Industry happy and miserable. "Your Highness, to be honest, with the current situation, I'm afraid it will take until next year to build the planned shops and houses." Your Highness, we are short of people. There are really too few people. Please think of a way to get some as soon as possible. People came to help build the house.

"I have already told the foreign guests and asked them to send us some manpower and craftsmen to help us build houses and build roads." In addition to building the shops and houses agreed by the guests in advance, there are also schools and factories. "In a few days, a group of people should arrive at Marsh Mansion. They will be given to you then. You can make good arrangements."

As soon as he heard that someone was available, the minister of the Ministry of Industry immediately showed a smile on his face.

"Your Highness, this is really great."

"You should hurry up and build the school. The school is urgent." After the trade conference, businessmen from other places, foreign dignitaries and businessmen kindly donated a lot of money to build roads and schools in Marsh Mansion.

"Your Highness, I have arranged for people to build the school. The day after tomorrow is an auspicious day, and construction will start then." The Minister of Industry reported respectfully, "According to your plan, it will be completed in two months."

After hearing this, Zhao Yao nodded slightly: "Okay." Just after he finished speaking, he remembered that Marsh Mansion currently only had one main road, and continued, "The second main road must be built as soon as possible. A market cannot have only one main road. At least three."

The minister of the Ministry of Industry felt bitter in his heart. It seems that in the next five years, no, maybe in the next ten years, their Ministry of Industry will be busy building houses and roads.

"Your Highness, we can only take our time now." He wished that each of them had three heads and six arms, so that they could build the house quickly.

Zhao Yao also knew the predicament of the Ministry of Industry, nodded slightly and said: "Then build the school and the scheduled house first, and then talk about the other things."

Alas, before the start of the trade conference, he was busy every day. After the trade conference, he thought he could rest for a while, but he didn't expect to be busier than before and had more things to do than before.

Headache!

In addition to being busy with matters in Marsh Mansion, he also has to worry about matters in the capital.

During the trade conference, a lot of things happened in the capital.

The New Year has finally come to an end, and relatives have finally paid their respects. I am really tired both mentally and physically. To be honest, celebrating the New Year is even busier and more tiring than working.

I’ll start updating more tomorrow, and I’ll make up for the updates during this period.

Finally, I shamelessly asked the veterans for monthly tickets!
