Happy life in the world of film and television

Chapter 1432: Goodbye Wei Zifu, Yixiu is the Queen

Jiang Chen turned his head and looked at him, with surprise in his eyes: "Master Zhuo? What a coincidence, I didn't expect to meet you here."

The head of the Zhuo family is Zhuo Wangsun.

That is the character in "Phoenix Prisoner".

Jiang Chen had met Zhuo Wangsun when he came to the Third World last time.

The Star Caravan and the Zhuo family have collaborated a lot in the past few months.

"Greetings, Master Jiang." Zhuo Wangsun walked over and bowed.

"Master Zhuo." Jiang Chen returned the greeting.

The two chatted for a while.

"Mr. Jiang, there is a restaurant up ahead. Shall we go have a drink together?" Zhuo Wangsun said.

"Okay." Jiang Chen did not refuse.

At that moment, Jiang Chen brought Luo Qi and Zhuo Wangsun to the restaurant.

After ordering some wine and food, Jiang Chen and Zhuo Wangsun chatted while drinking.

We talked about cooperation.

"Mr. Jiang, I want to increase our cooperation." After Zhuo Wangsun made a lot of money by cooperating with the Star Caravan, he wanted to increase cooperation with the Star Caravan.

As a businessman, Zhuo Wangsun would not miss any opportunity to make money.

"Okay, but..."

When it comes to cooperation, Jiang Chen is an expert.

Under Jiang Chen's eloquent persuasion, Jiang Chen and Zhuo Wangsun further reached a cooperation agreement.

However, although a cooperation agreement was reached, Zhuo Wangsun was not satisfied with it.

Although this cooperation agreement was good for the Zhuo family, it had not yet achieved the results that satisfied him.

"Master Zhuo, as long as our cooperation is successful, we can continue to strengthen our cooperation in the future." Jiang Chen said.

"Mr. Jiang is right." Zhuo Wangsun nodded.

"Master Zhuo, I'll take my leave first. If you have any matters in the future, you can send a message to the Jiang Mansion. Even if I'm not at the Jiang Mansion, my wife will handle matters related to the Jiang family." Jiang Chen said.

"Okay." Zhuo Wangsun nodded.

"Master Zhuo, our Star Caravan will still need your help when it goes to Shuzhong in the future," Jiang Chen said.

"Is the Star Caravan preparing to march into Shu?" asked Zhuo Wangsun.

"This is inevitable. Not only in Shu, but also in other places in the Han Kingdom, and even in Wusun, Dayuan and other countries, we have industries of our Star Caravan." Jiang Chen said.

Zhuo Wangsun was shocked.

As someone who has cooperated with the Star Caravan, he is very clear about the strength of the Star Caravan, but now he understands from Jiang Chen's words that the Star Caravan is even more powerful than he imagined.

Half an hour later, Zhuo Wangsun said goodbye and left.

"Sir, where are we going next?" Luo Qi asked.

"Let's go back. There's nowhere to go." When Jiang Chen saw Zhuo Wangsun walking away, he couldn't help but think of Zhuo Wenjun.

Zhuo Wenjun was a talented woman.

When I saw her before, I didn't think she was too stunning, but...

Abdominal poetry and gas from China.

This may be how Zhuo Wenjun is described.

Jiang Chen felt that if he could capture Zhuo Wenjun, he could let her study calligraphy and poetry together with Cai Wenji.

Jiang Chen opened the properties panel.

"It is October 1058th now. I have been in the Third World for almost half a year. My strength has increased by 1198, my physique has increased by 613, my spirit has increased by 538, and my agility has increased by ."

"After coming back from the Fourth World and arriving in the Second World for more than a month, my strength and physique increased by 130, and my spirit and agility increased by 40. In the more than a month before coming to the Third World, my strength increased by 210, my physique increased by 240, my spirit increased by 110, and my agility increased by 100. I didn't expect that in almost half a year, my strength has increased by 1058, my physique by 1198, my spirit by 613, and my agility by 538."

"Sure enough, Xiaoyao Tian Jue, plus elixirs and mid-grade spirit stones. As my cultivation level improves, my attribute points increase faster and faster."

"The clan's luck increased by 4813 points."

“That’s a pretty good increase.”

"In almost half a year, we signed a total of 62 female protagonists."

"There were quite a few people who signed in, and with the discovery of the Sky Continent, we conquered Zhao Song and established the Great Qin Empire."

"The family has been expanded to include Nian Suyan, Zhong Xuezhi, and Guo Qingyi."

"The ones who haven't been certified are Qin Yun and Yin Susu."

"So, even if we include those who don't have the Saint Casting Clan's certification, there's still about one per month, which isn't much."

Jiang Chen took a deep breath, discarded all the thoughts in his mind, and then took out a ten thousand year old red fruit.

After signing in and obtaining the Ten Thousand Year Red Fruit, Jiang Chen wanted to take it.

Therefore, after returning to Jiang Mansion, Jiang Chen immediately prepared to take the Ten Thousand Year Red Fruit.

“I hope I won’t be disappointed.”

Jiang Chen swallowed the Ten Thousand Year Red Fruit in one gulp, and then began to practice his skills to refine it.

As Jiang Chen refined, the aura on his body became stronger and stronger.

Three hours later.

Jiang Chen opened his eyes.

"The Ten Thousand Years Red Fruit is indeed useful."

“I wonder how much it has increased?”

Thinking of this, Jiang Chen opened the property panel.

"After refining the Centennial Vermillion Fruit, strength increases by 70, physique increases by 80, spirit increases by 20, and agility increases by 60. The condition is that it requires a Grandmaster Warrior to refine it."

"After refining the Millennium Vermillion Fruit, Strength increases by 94, Physical fitness increases by 100, Spirit increases by 30, and Agility increases by 80. The condition is that a Grandmaster is required to refine it."

"After refining the Ten Thousand Year Vermilion Fruit, my strength has increased by 314, my physique by 283, my spirit by 70, and my agility by 180." "I didn't expect that after refining the Ten Thousand Year Vermilion Fruit, it would increase so much. It's much stronger than the blood of a true dragon that is times thinner."

"It seems that it is not difficult to break through to the Martial God Realm before going to the Fourth World."

"However, the Ten Thousand Years Red Fruit requires a warrior at the Martial King level to cultivate."

Jiang Chen was happy.

There are many warriors in the Jiang family who are at the level of Martial King.

Signing in will get you the Ten Thousand Year Red Fruit, which also means that many people can refine it.

The attribute points of the Martial King realm are above 500 points.

The attribute points of the Martial Emperor realm are above 1500 points.

This means that to break through from the Martial King Realm to the Martial Emperor Realm, one only needs to increase 1000 attribute points.

This also means that one ten thousand year old red fruit increases the progress of breaking through from the Martial King Realm to the Martial Emperor Realm by one fifth.

"However, there are only nine Ten Thousand Year Red Fruits left in my hand."

“I can only wait until I sign in.”

Jiang Chen took a deep breath and walked out of the secret room.

"My husband has made a breakthrough?" Rong Yin came forward when she saw Jiang Chen coming out.

"No." Jiang Chen shook his head and said, "I am now in the Martial Emperor Realm. It is not easy to break through to the Martial God Realm. However, I feel good about this training."

"Then congratulations, husband." Rong Yin said.

"Hahaha."

Jiang Chen smiled and said, "Congratulations."

"I'll go prepare the bath water." Rong Yin said.

Jiang Chen nodded.

After a while, Jiang Chen came to the bathroom.

Rongyin brought up hot water with her maid.

Pour hot water into the tub.

"You guys go down." Rong Yin waved her hand and asked the maid to leave.

"Yes."

The maids left.

"Together?" Jiang Chen opened his arms and said as he let Rong Yin undress.

"I listen to my husband." Rong Yin did not refuse.

This is not the first time that Jiang Chen has encountered such a thing.

As Jiang Chen's woman, this is my duty.

If Jiang Chen doesn't even let her do this, it means that he is not very interested in her.

Soon, unspeakable noises were heard in the bathroom.

An hour and a half later, Jiang Chen walked out of the room and saw Wei Zifu.

"Greetings, sir." Wei Zifu bowed.

"Zi Fu?" Jiang Chen's eyes lit up when he saw Wei Zi Fu, and he strode forward: "Are you used to living here during this period of time?"

"Habit." Wei Zifu replied.

"You'll get used to it." Jiang Chen took Wei Zifu's hand and said, "Shall we go for a walk?"

"Okay." Wei Zifu didn't dare to refuse.

After Princess Pingyang gave her to Jiang Chen, she knew what she should do.

At that moment, Jiang Chen took Wei Zifu and talked while walking.

……

The Imperial Palace in Bianjing, Tianqiong Continent.

"Husband, this is the battle report from the border." Yixiu handed a memorial to Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen opened it and started reading.

This is the battle report between the border troops and Xiyan.

Before, after Jiang Chen secretly controlled the border troops, he set up an attack against Xiyan.

During this period, Han Shiyi went to the border in person and used the border troops to fight against Xiyan, defeating Xiyan's 100,000-strong army and inflicting severe damage to Xiyan.

"It seems that the border has been stabilized." Jiang Chen said.

"In the previous battles against Western Yan, Zhao Song suffered more defeats than victories. This time, we defeated Western Yan's 100,000-strong army, which has had a morale-boosting effect. In addition, the internal rebellion in our Great Qin Empire has been almost resolved. Now the situation in the Great Qin Empire has almost stabilized." Hua Chunran said.

"Well, that's good."

Jiang Chen said: "We have stabilized the situation with force, and now we just need to develop with peace of mind. The economy of the previous Zhao Song Dynasty was already prosperous, and now our Great Qin Empire must go further under the development of the former Zhao Song Dynasty. Both maritime trade and other trades must be developed. In addition, the surplus labor caused by land annexation must be reasonably utilized."

During the Zhao and Song dynasties, after the founding of the country, water conservancy projects were built, a large amount of arable land was reclaimed, the population increased significantly, and agricultural production tools were significantly improved. With the advancement of agricultural production technology, the unit output rate of agriculture increased significantly, resulting in a surplus of agricultural products. The increase in grain production allowed a large amount of grain to enter the market in the form of commodities, further improving the commercialization of agricultural products and promoting the specialized production of commodities.

At the same time, the commercial development of agriculture provided the handicraft industry with a source of food and sufficient raw materials and labor, making the division of labor in the handicraft industry more refined and the product variety richer. The output and quality of products have been significantly improved, especially in the southwestern coastal areas (in the Tianqiong Continent, maritime trade is developed in the southwest coastal areas, and the geographical location is exactly the opposite of the east and west of the Zhao Song Dynasty in history). The silk weaving and porcelain industries have developed rapidly.

The silk weaving industry in the Jiangnan region has a high degree of specialization and high production efficiency, and has surpassed the north to become a developed region for silk weaving production. At the same time, the porcelain industry has also entered a mature stage with excellent quality. In addition to meeting domestic market demand, a large number of porcelains are exported overseas.

As the scale and scope of transactions expanded, currency as a medium of exchange needed to be innovated. Without the intervention of the Jiang family, the traditional copper coins of the Song Dynasty would have been difficult to meet the needs of large-scale transactions, and Jiaozi would have appeared.

Now that Star Coin has appeared, and precious metal weighing currencies represented by silver will also appear in the circulation field, by then copper coins, iron coins and silver will coexist in the monetary system. By then, Star Coin can slowly develop into an international currency.

This is also one of the reasons why Jiang Chen conquered Zhao and Song and established the Great Qin Empire, and made Bianjing the Jiang family's base in the third world.

"In terms of maritime trade, I think relevant economic policies need to be formulated," Grace said.

"I think the previous policies of the Zhao Song Dynasty on imported goods were withdrawal, prohibition, and purchase in bulk." Jiang Chen asked.

"Yes." Grace nodded.

Previously, the Zhao Song Dynasty levied a portion of the imported and exported goods as a tax in kind. "Whenever a ship arrived, the commander of the grain transport and the inspector of the maritime trade would inspect the goods and collect the tax, which was called levying tax."

Monopoly refers to the state's monopoly on a certain type of goods. In coastal trade, it means that all the monopoly goods imported by merchants will be purchased. In other words, "from now on, except for the monopoly goods, only half of the other goods will be sold at the current price."

The policy of purchasing goods at a certain percentage is that the state purchases the goods. The combination of the policy of purchasing goods at a certain percentage and the policy of purchasing them in full is called purchasing goods at a certain percentage.

"These three policies have been constantly evolving as time went by and trade conditions changed. The rates and types of goods in the tax collection system have changed, with the trend toward a lower rate and more detailed types. According to records in the palace, the tax collection system was divided into two parts in the second year of Chunhua. Later, there were many changes. During the reign of Zhao Heng, one out of ten ships arriving from the sea was collected first."

Grace has been studying the maritime trade policies of the previous Zhao Song Dynasty recently, so she can give a clear answer.

After a pause, Grace continued, "At the same time, the types of monopoly in the monopoly system have been decreasing overall. Since the beginning of the Taiping Xingguo era, all frankincense, urn, elephants, and treasures have been completely banned. Trade with foreign guests is also completely prohibited. I think such a policy will inevitably be difficult to continue."

"During the Song Dynasty in the history of the First World, it seemed that the scope of the monopoly was repeatedly reduced, even to the point where only eight kinds of goods remained: pearls, shells, hats, rhinos, iron, tortoise skin, coral, macan, and frankincense. Finally, except for a few spices and military supplies, all other items were allowed to be traded by the people," said Xue Chunyu.

"Yes. In addition, the rate of betting on Zhao Song has been gradually decreasing, and the types of goods bought have also been required later." Grace continued.

"We must formulate a maritime trade policy suitable for the Qin Empire based on our actual situation, adapting to the times and local conditions," said Jiang Chen.

"That's true. In addition, the policy towards foreign merchants also needs to be changed," said Xue Chunyu.

"Policy on foreign merchants?" Jiang Chen nodded.

Maritime merchants are an important entity driving overseas trade. The number of foreign merchants directly affects the volume of overseas trade and is closely related to the income of the imperial court.

"Previously, the Zhao Song Dynasty's policies on foreign merchants mainly included three categories: attracting foreign merchants, protecting them along the way, and managing them..." Grace introduced the foreign merchant policies during the Zhao Song Dynasty, and then said, "Our Great Qin Empire is now continuing the relevant policies of the Zhao Song Dynasty. Therefore, if we make direct and drastic adjustments, it will affect the situation of the entire market."

"Then take it step by step."

Jiang Chen said: "The Great Qin Empire is now our base camp in the Third World. I don't want large-scale unrest, so we can gradually adjust the relevant policies on maritime trade. In addition, in Guangzhou, Quanzhou, Fuzhou, Mingzhou and other places, which are major maritime trade ports, we must set up branches of the Universal Bank as soon as possible. Give full play to the role of the Star Coin. At the same time, mobilize the Jinyiwei for real-time monitoring."

There are 11,000 Jinyiwei in the Qin Empire of the Tianqiong Continent, but there are 3,000 Jinyiwei in the palace. But even if there are only 8,000 Jinyiwei, they can monitor the world.

After all, it is easy for 8,000 Jinyiwei to develop 80,000 peripheral members, all they need is enough funds.

"That's fine." Grace nodded. "We just need to visit these port cities every once in a while. We have flying talismans and flying swords, so it's no problem for us to go to these port cities."

"Then let's discuss the specific situation." Jiang Chen said.

"it is good."

At that moment, Jiang Chen, Hua Chunran, Yixiu and others started discussing the matter.

During this period, although Jiang Chen was not in Bianjing City, he asked Yixiu to handle government affairs in the name of the Queen of the Great Qin Empire, with Hua Chunran, Helan Mingyu and Guo Qingyi as her assistant.

As for whether doing so would lead to bad rumors, Jiang Chen didn't consider it at all.

After all, in Jiang Chen's opinion, these rumors are not a big deal at all.

And with Guo Qingyi around, she could appease the hearts of most of the old ministers of the Zhao Song Dynasty.

Liu Shengnan said at this time: "The shipbuilding industry of the Qin Empire is doing well now. We can build Zheng He's treasure ship..."
