Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty

  Chapter 1082 All nations come to Korea

   Fang Jifan had no choice but to express his deep regret after hearing this.

   Isn’t it just dozens of people following behind to collect debts? What's the matter?

  As long as people do things with a clear conscience, are they still afraid of being chased for debts?

   Anyway, you are the prince, what can they do with you?

   "Lao Fang..." Zhu Houzhao obviously had a poor mental quality, and now he was frowning: "What should I do now."

  Fang Jifan said firmly: "Now there are three strategies: upper, middle and lower. The worst strategy is to ignore them, ignore them, and treat them as air."

  Zhu Houzhao shook his head: "It's Zhongce."

  Fang Jifan raised his head: "I have a grandson who has always been despicable. You might as well let him come forward and break their dog legs, and everything will be fine."

  Zhu Houzhao wished he could grab Fang Jifan's collar, and his eyes were burning: "This is the old Taishan of my palace. Thanks to you, you are going to break your Taishan's legs."

  Fang Jifan shuddered: "To be honest, I dare not!"

   "Let's talk about the best policy."

  Fang Jifan thought for a while: "The best strategy is the easiest. Once the house price rises, everything will go well."

"But..." Zhu Houzhao said with a painful expression on his face: "In the old city, if you want to renovate, the cost is astonishing. Although a lot of it has been sold, in fact, the revenue is only barely balanced for the time being. If you really want to make a profit, I'm afraid It's years away."

   This is the truth.

  The reconstruction of the old city will cost a lot. A lot of old houses need to be razed to the ground, roads need to be built, and countless public facilities need to be built.

   Judging by modern standards, the old city of the capital is simply uninhabitable. Once the land is obtained, if you really want to make a profit, at least for the first few years, don’t think about it for the time being.

Once the mansions in Xincheng become unstable, especially Zhu Houzhao's mansion outside the Fifth Ring Road, the sales will start to plummet. He has invested a lot in the early stage of building roads, theaters, schools, digging wells, laying water pipes, heating pipes, and a lot of money. The landscape, these... are all money.

   There are tens of thousands of people employed alone, and tens of thousands of families, eating and drinking, pointing to the land outside the fifth ring road of Zhu Houzhao.

  It’s better now, I don’t know who spread the rumors outside, and now it can’t be sold. As soon as the creditors heard the news, they immediately came to the door, and they all looked pitiful and cried poorly. Zhu Houzhao...

Fang Jifan looked at Zhu Houzhao calmly: "His Royal Highness, you must have confidence in yourself. Every day, you must tell yourself that you can do it. Don't be afraid. Someone must buy your highness's land. We Daming, The fortune of the country is very prosperous."

   Zhu Houzhao heard nonsense.

   But Fang Jifan looked overjoyed, holding a copy of the newly transcribed news in his hand, he was happy again.

  This is the reply letter from all the vassal states to the imperial court. The message is very clear. Everyone is cheering for the initiative of the Ming emperor. The noble families in the Eastern and Western countries have already started to leave.

   Good thing!

The next day, another decree came, and it was still the imperial edict. Fang Jifan refused once, but he was worried. His Majesty withdrew his order and dared not play any more. Get up in all directions.

   Immediately afterwards, it was wine making. After more than ten days of flowing water, Xishan was full of guests.

  One family and two men, what an honor this is.

  With a winged cap on his head, a gold belt around his waist, and a bright red bullfight suit, he is particularly eye-catching.

  Some family friends of the Fang family, Fang Jifan's uncles, all surrounded Fang Jifan enviously, this one pulled Fang Jifan's sleeves, and that one patted Fang Jifan's head.

Everyone was moved, and Zhang Mao said excitedly: "The old man said a long time ago that this son of Ji Fan has been smart and responsible since he was a child. In the future, he will definitely shine on the family. The old Fang family is virtuous."

  Everyone nodded: "That's what I said at the beginning."

  Fang Jifan found that his memory was really not very good, and he always felt that these old things were lying to him, but seeing what they said was convincing, he started to get confused, what the fuck, is that so? Why do they all say that they have a nose and eyes, and they are serious, which does not match my memory? Is it because I really have a brain disease, or are they all confused.

   These things, after all, can’t be delved into the depths. If you delve into them, you will turn your face.

  Fang Jifan, no matter how arrogant he is, would not dare to make a fool of himself in front of these family-acquainted uncles who carried him into the air since he was a child.

  Fang Jifan smiled dryly, keeping his eyes clear, and his smile also needs to be pure.

  After more than a month, the fleet of Wa Kingdom...arrived.

Thousands of young people, with their luggage, took a large ship, and under the **** of five ships from the Ningbo Navy, they arrived at Tianjin Port. They disembarked and looked curiously at the central country described in the poem. , here, everything is fresh, and then, under the leadership of Honglu Temple officials, they started to march to the capital.

  Here, they were temporarily arranged in the old house of Laohonglu Temple in the old city.

   It was the first time that so many guests came to Honglu Temple, but after all, they were not qualified to enjoy the single-family courtyard of real envoys, and because of the large number of people, they couldn't take care of everyone.

According to the intention of the imperial court, the eldest sons of these Japanese daimyos and nobles will study and live here until their fathers die before they are allowed to return to their hometowns and inherit their father's titles. His son stayed behind.

These young people, after encountering Ming's strong ships and guns, seemed to be sober. They suddenly realized that the heavenly kingdom is still the heavenly kingdom. At the beginning, the prosperous Tang Dynasty they admired is still the prosperous Tang Dynasty today. .

  Although it was the Ming Emperor's will and did not dare to disobey, at the same time, most of the people came here with longing.

  These people are almost the essence of the entire Wa kingdom. They are young and energetic. They have studied literature and martial arts since childhood, are proficient in Chinese, and have read poetry and books. In fact, there is not much difference between them and the scholars of Ming Dynasty.

  At this moment, they set foot on this piece of land and sat in the carriage prepared by Honglu Temple, feeling extremely excited.

  Oda Nobusada is one of them.

  His father was the lord of the guardian daimyo Shiba of the Owari Kingdom.

  Nobudaka Oda lived in the same room with seven or eight young people, and after that, he did not manage them.

   This is also what Emperor Hongzhi meant.

  Wa alone has thousands of people, North Korea has thousands of people, Ryukyu has hundreds of people, Western countries, and Uzbek Tibet. What a huge number of people.

  If the imperial court supports everything, the internal funds may have to go bankrupt.

   Provide them with a place to live. As for how to study and how to live, this is their own business.

As a result, Oda Shindou and his countless companions happily boarded the steam train from the old city to the new city the next day. As soon as it passed, the excited heart would jump out.

   This is a car that can walk by itself.

  The transportation capacity is hundreds or thousands of times higher than that of a bullock cart. Hearing the roar of the iron bump, they danced in the carriage.

   Then, they arrived at Xincheng.

  The straight asphalt road, brand new houses, hidden among the trees along the road, everything here is clean, except for some big chimneys in the distance, whistling white smoke.

  Pedestrians on the street are in a hurry, and not many people pay attention to them.

   This is...the place where they will settle.

  The companions who came with them went their separate ways. They were completely unfamiliar with this place. Soon, the countless new things here made them no longer miss their hometown.

  In the future, they may live here for ten, twenty, or even thirty years, until their father dies, and then let their son succeed them, and then they can leave.

  Therefore...they have too much to adapt to the new environment here.

  Oda Nobudaka walked aimlessly. This place is 11,000 times more magnificent and lively than any city in Ozhang Kingdom. He looked at every detail here curiously.

  Suddenly, his footsteps stopped, his body trembled, and then he stared in one direction, and suddenly, tears fell subconsciously.

When he came here, he was just a stranger from a foreign country. The difference in status and the bustling first capital made him feel inferior and strange, but here, he saw a newly built mansion. Hang a huge banner.

  He stared at the banner, the Chinese characters on it, he couldn't recognize them very well. At this time, the country of Wa was originally written in Chinese characters.

  He hurriedly raised his face slightly to seventy-five corners. This is because there are shiny things in the corners of his eyes, which seem to be slippery.

  Here... there is a taste of hometown.

  The banner reads: "It's such a joy to have friends from afar! Xishan Jianye warmly welcomes Japanese friends who come from afar, and wishes them a happy life and success in their studies."

  Nobudaka Oda...Suddenly I was thinking, the gentleness of this foreign land, I am afraid that I will always remember this moment, when I am the most lonely and hesitant, these few big characters give me the warmth.

  Suddenly, the long journey, the hesitation of being away from home, and the expectation of the new environment made him have mixed feelings, tears came down, and he cried.

   He was busy wiping the corners of his eyes with his gown before he opened his red eyes, his nose still twitching, but fortunately, his gaze began to become firm.

  This is a new life.

  In life, there seems to be a ray of dawn.

  As he walked, his footsteps began to become firm, and he began to be full of confidence in the future. So, he raised his head and chest, and didn't mind other people's eyes.

Heh... This place is really bustling, with countless people, countless mansions, the roads are like mirrors, and the cars and horses are like dragons. In the distance, there are cheers from the theater troupe. A little further on, there is a school. , came the children's babbling.

  Isn't this... the Chang'an described in the Middle-earth books left over hundreds of years ago?

   You deserve to be called Middle-Earth!
