Chapter 326
Zhang Ming didn't want to stay in Xuzhou anymore.

This time the military expenses were also paid by Yuan Shao, he was just making money.

After arranging the next things, he left.

When Zhang Ming left, Liu Bei finally felt more comfortable.

The foreign army was just outside his headquarters, and he felt uncomfortable.

On the way back, Zhang Ming dug a few more holes for Liu Bei.

This time, I came to Xuzhou for more than three months and did a lot of things.

It took half a month to go back, because Mi Lan, Guo Jia, and Guo Jia couldn't run day and night.

Half a month later, Zhang Ming returned to Beiping City.

When Zhang Ming came back, Youzhou had changed a lot this time.

Tian Feng, Xi Zhicai, Guan Yu, and Xu Rong came to Zhang Ming together.

Guan Yu and Xu Rong were in charge of guarding Youzhou together.

The two reported the situation. The training of the army has been completed very well, especially the militia, which has completed the training.

"Second brother, you go to the third and fourth brothers. If there is no war, you have to defend each side."

The four brothers may not be able to get together normally. They have to guard a county each, and Zhang Ming personally guards Beiping City. In this way, the four brothers may only be together when the war breaks out.

Guan Yu left with Xu Rong, and soon Xu Rong also needed to be dispatched to guard one side.

In Beiping City, it is enough to have him as a general, and two lieutenants are enough.

After everyone left, Tian Feng and Xi Zhi began to report to work.

Xi Zhicai mainly reported on the construction of the bases for newspaper distribution.

Today, the distance is five or six states closer, and newspapers can be delivered within a few days.

"Very well, thanks for your hard work, our newspaper is becoming more and more powerful."

Xi Zhicai didn't dare to take credit for it, Zhang Ming came up with it, he just executed it.

After Xi Zhi finished his report, Zhang Ming said to him: "Your friend Guo Jia is also here. You should put down what you are doing recently and go to accompany him for a walk, everywhere."

"Yes, my lord."

Xi Zhicai hasn't seen Guo Jia for a long time, the two are studying in the same academy.

As soon as Xi Zhicai left, only Zhang Ming and Tian Feng were left.

"My lord, this subordinate also has something important to report."

Zhang Ming went to exchange another cup of tea for Tian Feng, and then sat down to listen to him.

"My lord, we discovered a super silver mine in the Fusang area. Now there are only a few thousand people mining there, and the efficiency is not high. I want to send more people to mine it."

"How much has been mined?"

Silver mine, a very large silver mine, Zhang Ming attaches great importance to it.

"Recently, a batch has been brought back, and it can probably make more than 70 silver coins."

A lot, very important to Zhang Ming who is short of money.

Zhang Ming nodded, and then said: "You can send more people, send a group of Koreans over there, tell them that after one year of digging, they can start paying wages, and after three years of digging, they will be given the status of a big man, and let them They have their own last names."

"By the way, we also need to solve the problem of spouses. If you are single, let them get married and support the local women first. If not, we big men's women can also do it."

In today's war, many men have been sent to the battlefield, leaving behind many women.

"My lord, the management of Fusang is still a bit difficult. What instructions do you have?"

"Specially set up a few more counties in the coastal areas. After we have a certain foundation, we will send a few groups of refugees there in the future. In addition, we must bring a group of scholars there to teach them to read, write, and learn Chinese."

"Just send them from the academy. Those who want to be selected as officials will first go there for two years and allow them to come back after two years."

To be sent overseas, it is best to go voluntarily, and those who do not voluntarily go will be assigned, and those who have been assigned can return after two years.

Both Goryeo and Fusang will become Zhang Ming's territory in the future, so they must learn Chinese, so that they will become an inseparable part of China since ancient times.

Zhang Ming discussed with Tian Feng and decided the future of Fusang and Goryeo.

He has now sent tens of thousands of people to Fusang, but Fusang is a very large area, and several points have been opened up.

The cost of arranging people from China is too high, so Zhang Ming can only let Fusang locals marry Han people, let them study, and slowly assimilate.

In the next few days, Zhang Ming, Tian Feng and other major officials formulated a series of policies.

There are hundreds of thousands more people in Youzhou, and the power is much stronger.

With the support of Qian, the businesses of each county developed rapidly.

The money that Zhang Ming borrowed at the beginning will be repaid soon.

The mansions in Beiping City cost hundreds of thousands of copper coins. Many of these businessmen came from grass roots. Now that they can become aristocratic families, they naturally spend a lot of money to buy them.

Zhang Ming also set aside some, which can be used in the future when he lacks money.

In Beiping City, many private houses have been built now, and more than 30 people have lived in them, and now there are still people moving in.

Everything is developing rapidly.

Time flies, and several months pass by.

From autumn to winter, Zhang Ming and the others had a bumper harvest.

Many people rejoiced at this bumper harvest.

There are more than 20 people, and they harvested for the first time in Youzhou.

For this harvest, they handed in [-]% of the harvest, and the remaining grain was enough for them to eat for a whole year.

Some are more diligent and have reclaimed more land, which is also planted by them.

All of a sudden, life changed drastically.

If the family has food and can eat enough, then one or two more children will be raised.

Many broken families, slowly getting better.

Although Zhang Ming took [-]% of their income, they lived better than they did in other places.

There are no exorbitant taxes here.

Zhang Ming sent people to interview and paint pictures, and would slowly introduce the situation in Youzhou through newspapers.

In the past few months, there have been very few new arrivals, only about [-].

On this day, Xi Zhicai came to Zhang Ming.

"Go to see Guo Jia again? How is he?"

"Both of us were in poor health since childhood, he was shocked to see me." Xi Zhicai said.

Xi Zhicai is strong now, and after his illness is cured, Xi Zhicai will not be ill for a long time.

Zhang Ming nodded, and then said: "Cao Cao didn't bring money to redeem him, so why doesn't he want Guo Jia and Dian Wei?"

"My lord, this subordinate is here because of this matter. I have received news that Cao Ang has already gone north with money to redeem him."

"It's a pity that there was no interest payment at the time of the signing. The past few months have made it easier for Cao Cao."

It's not that Cao Cao didn't want to come to redeem people, so he fought with Liu Bei, and then most of Yanzhou was occupied by Lu Bu. He drove Lu Bu away, but he also suffered a lot.

Therefore, after stabilizing the rear, he has no money to redeem people, so he can only let Guo Jia and Dian Wei stay with Zhang Ming, and he is ready to redeem people after he has developed a bit.

"Very good, this time Cao Ang is here, I want to receive him personally, you can arrange it."

Xi Zhicai took the order and left.

This time Cao Cao came to send money again, it couldn't be better, although Zhang Ming is not short of money now, but no one thinks he has too much money.
