Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Tong Baimei pondered Zhang Xian's words for a moment, and said for a moment: "What you said is true, but it is absolutely impossible for me to work under Zhao Zhiran like Wang Shouyu! But now, between Beiyuan, Xixia, and Tubo,  There is no big battle, so I can¡¯t serve in the army.¡±

    Then he sighed: "In the battle at Baima Mountain, I helped Master Zhang fight against Xuanci of Buddhism. Zhenshitang originally wanted to give Songfan to my teacher, but he was rejected by the teacher and used it in exchange for Alas! Otherwise, how could this kid like Zhao Zhiran be where he is today?  !¡±

    Zhang Xian said: "It is indeed a pitybut the past is over. There is no use talking about it. It is better to look at the present."

    Tong Baimei looked at Zhang Xian, who seemed to be confident, and urged: "If you have something to say, say it quickly, don't hold back."

    Zhang Xiandao: "Actually, I was just tempted at first and hadn't figured out my thoughts yet. But today, after hearing what happened to Uncle Yan, I have made up my mind. My nephew plans to go to southern Xinjiang!"

    Tong Baimei was puzzled: "Southern Xinjiang? What are you going to do?"

    Zhang first took out a journal and placed it in front of Tong Baimei: "Uncle Yan, please read it."

    This is the "Inside and Outside the Imperial City" that just came out a few days ago. Tong Baimei has been traveling around the country during this period. He didn't read the new journal. When he turned to the first page, he saw the eye-catching title - "The Fiefdom Law" is about to be released.  ?

    I looked at Zhang Xian in confusion, and saw Zhang Xian pointing at the article and saying, "That's it!"

    The article said that according to reliable information, the joint meeting is pushing for the Daomen and the imperial court to jointly issue an edict called the "Fiefdom Law."

    The general content of the "Fiefdom Law" is that in order to encourage monks from various factions who serve in the inspection fleet, whoever has made great achievements in naval battles will be granted islands by the joint meeting based on military merit and titles, as is the case today in all parts of the Central Plains.  After the war, pavilions will be built in the East China Sea, and each enfeoffed island will build pavilions individually or jointly and be included in the Daomen pavilion system.

    50% of the production of each sealed island was paid to the overseas reclamation company, which was used by the reclamation company to repay the principal and interest of the bonds and then distribute dividends. Fifty years later, the reclamation company withdrew from the East China Sea, and the Donghai Pavilion was managed by Zhenshitang like the Zhongyuan Pavilion.

    Seeing this, Tong Baimei said: "Although the conditions are good, but as you said, let me serve under Zhao Zhiran, don't even think about it!"

    Zhang Xian said: "Uncle Yan, don't be busy, keep reading."

    Tong Baimei turned the page and continued reading.  The article analyzes that the promulgation of this law originated from the voice of frontline soldiers, but this will damage the interests of shareholders of overseas reclamation companies. For this reason, the "Fiefdom Law" intends to compensate overseas reclamation companies.  The development rights of Hengduan Dashan and its south will be handed over to overseas reclamation companies for the same period of fifty years.

    The article concluded that the joint meeting and the Overseas Reclamation Company¡¯s Board of Directors discussed development methods for the area south of Hengduan Mountain. It is reported that the majority opinion is that the reclamation company will issue a license, and license holders can go to Hengduan Mountain.

    Tong Baimei closed his eyes for a moment and asked, "Go to Hengduan Mountain? What does it have to do with me?"

    Zhang Xian said: "Uncle Yan, look at the author of this article."

    "Ruoqi?"

    "In the 29th year of Jiajing, when I entered the realm of alchemy, this Ruoqi interviewed me and has been in contact with me since then. Uncle Yan may not know that she is very valued in front of Pei Zhongning and Suchuan Yao, and she can interview me  I learned a lot of things that others couldn't interview. She told me that for the disposal of the south of Hengduan Mountain, Daomen is likely to follow the example of Donghai and implement the pavilion system. The difference from Donghai is that the occupation will be recognized by default.  purpose."

    "What's the meaning?"

    "Wherever you occupy and develop, the land under your feet will be yours! If you occupy a land of one mansion, you can build a mansion of one mansion"

    Tong Baimei's eyes lit up: "If I occupy the land of a mansion, will I be the master of it?"

    "Yes, if we occupy a large enough area, have a large enough population, and have a strong enough influence, the imperial court will also grant us a title, and the True Master Hall will also commend us! Just imagine, with such a status, such military exploits, and such a reputation, your contract  Is there any journal that won¡¯t publish a letter of challenge? Is there anyone who can¡¯t hear your voice? I don¡¯t dare to say that I can bring down Zhao Zhiran, but I¡¯m afraid it won¡¯t be difficult to make an appointment with him for a fight, right?¡±

    After a few words, Tong Baimei was shaken and couldn't sit still.

    "The owner of a hotel?"

    ¡°Real status and power!¡±

    "Praise from the True Master Hall?"

    "This is the glory!"

    "A knighthood from the imperial court?"

    "Famous throughout the world!"

    "real or fake?"

    ¡°I thought I almost didn¡¯t run away!¡±

    "Then let's give it a try?"

    "Uncle Yan, with you taking the lead, my nephew is willing to join me!"

    At that moment, the two began toDiscuss.  It is not easy to develop land in the Hengduan Mountains. It is a place where spirits and demons are rampant, and there are many dangers hidden there. Of course, it also means the same wealth.

    Tong Baimei has spent many years in the Hengduan Mountains. Although it is only on the northwest edge, his understanding of the place is much deeper than that of the average person, and he can speak fluently.

    Based on his knowledge, it is not recommended to develop in the deepest part of the Hengduan Mountains. Although there are many natural resources and treasures there, and the benefits are the greatest, it is also easy to die. He recommends starting at the edge, either in the north or in the north.  south.

    The north is close to the Ming Dynasty, so it is easy to get support, but the competition will definitely be fierce, and it is expected that many sects will come to grab the territory.  Not to mention anything else, the Huayun Pavilion of Long'an Prefecture in Sichuan alone still has sixteen small sects. Once the fiefdom law is introduced, won't they be able to grab their scalps?

    There are definitely fewer people going to the south, and the competition may not be strong, but close to Dali, who knows what will happen in Dali?  Will there be a conflict with Dali then?

    These are all issues that need to be considered and must be studied carefully.  But no matter how you think about it, there is one problem that cannot be avoided, and that is money.

    Silver is needed to purchase talismans, recruit personnel, purchase food and daily necessities, and even military armor, agricultural tools, etc. used by ordinary people.

    Zhang first reminded that if you want to develop the south side of Hengduan Mountain, you must cross the sea from Guangxi, which requires ships.

    After asking the store owner to remove the food and wine, the two of them spread out pen and paper on the table and listed the things they needed one by one.  After the list is made, counting the money, it is necessary to invest at least eighteen thousand taels.

    Tong Baimei took out all the silver notes and gold, silver and jade stones, which can be converted into about 3,800 taels. Zhang Xian was able to take out 9,000 taels, and there was still a gap of about 6,000 taels.

    Zhang Xian said: "I know a friend, whose surname is Huanqiu. He is a monk at Zhenqing Hall in Kunming Prefecture. His level is a little lower. He has only been in Jindan for four years, but he is very righteous. If Uncle Yan agrees, I will  He also brought in the three of us to create a foundation."

    Tong Baimei briefly asked Lou Huanqiu about his character and then agreed.  Zhang Xian quickly gave Lou Huanqiu a flying talisman. After several exchanges, Lou Huanqiu decisively agreed to join the gang and was willing to pay 8,000 taels of silver to increase the principal to 20,000.

    Tong Baimei was a little embarrassed: "I don't have enough money"

    Zhang Xian smiled and said: "Silver is something external to the body. You are a great refiner. Without your leadership, how could we dare to rush into the Hengduan Mountains at will?"
