"My lord, as soon as General Zhang launches an attack on Chen Youliang, my Imperial Guards will be the first to burn their supplies."
Jiang Tian: "Well done, Chen Youliang will have no way to escape now."
"Han Xin, tell Li Guang and Huo Qubing not to come to Ye City, and have them lead their troops straight to Nanpi."
What I want is Chen Youliang's head.
"promise……"
Jiang Tian walked up to Shen Lian and said, "Your Embroidered Uniform Guard should infiltrate the capital."
"That's already been done."
As expected of the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, Shen Lian is decisive and efficient. Jiang Tian did not expect that Shen Lian would achieve such success so soon after establishing the Embroidered Uniform Guard.
This refinement is indeed worthy of being redeemed from the system.
It's incredibly powerful.
"Shen Lian, I need to know the situation of all officials in the capital. How long will it take to investigate?"
Shen Lian held up three fingers: "Three months, three months is enough."
"Okay, I'll give you three months."
"Rest assured, my lord, I will deliver a complete report on the situation of all officials in the capital to you within three months."
…………
Ye City truly lives up to its reputation as a prefecture or county of Ji Province.
There are fertile fields thousands of miles outside the city.
Jiang Tian galloped on his horse, with Ling Yunzhi and Chen Feilong close behind.
As Xiao He rode his horse into the distance, he realized for the first time that Jiang Tian's grains were indeed harvested once a month.
These crops were only sown a few days ago, and they've already turned a lush green.
Xiao He dismounted and walked to the edge of the field.
In the fields, people are busy everywhere.
Although these people were extremely thin, their faces were filled with happy smiles.
"A miracle, this is truly a miracle." Xiao He held a few rice seedlings in his hand. The seedlings were already over a foot long.
Jiang Tian dismounted and walked through the fields, where the river flowed gently, its surface shimmering.
A gust of wind blew by, and ripples spread across the water.
Several water birds flew by, chirping as they skimmed the surface of the water.
"These crops will be ready for harvest by the end of the month." Jiang Tian looked into the distance, and the system notification indicated that he could now exchange for a lake.
He wanted to transform Jizhou into a land of plenty, a fertile region in the north.
When the people saw Jiang Tian, they all rushed over, their eyes filled with tears.
"My lord, I kowtow to you."
"We've lived like this for so long, and only now do we realize what life is all about."
"My lord, we... we have nothing more to say, and I don't know what to say either. I just want to kowtow to you."
"Get up, all of you," Jiang Tian waved to them, "get back to your work."
After the people respectfully kowtowed three times, they got up and went about their business.
“My lord…” Xiao He stepped forward, “Could our grain be sold to other places?”
"Of course, not just grain, but also our fruits, beef and mutton, herbs, and all the things Song Yingxing makes can be sold."
"Now it's not just the Great Xia Dynasty that's short of food; other countries are also short of food and water."
"As long as you sell this grain, you're guaranteed to make a fortune."
“And another thing,” Jiang Tian said, looking at the dirt roads in the fields, “If you want to get rich, build roads first.”
We must first build up all the roads, big and small, in Jizhou.
Those people who received the grain were mobilized.
There's a subsidy for road repairs.
"What kind of subsidy?" Xiao He asked quickly.
“They’ll get food to eat while they work on the road. That’s what we call a subsidy. We can’t keep giving them our food for free forever.”
"promise……"
"The paving standard will follow the standard of the Qin Straight Road. Once Song Yingxing produces cement, these roads will be replaced with cement roads."
What is cement?
"You'll find out then. Now you can start the large-scale development of Jizhou."
"clear……"
A luxurious carriage came hurtling towards us from the road.
Ling Yunzhi and Chen Feilong stood blocking the road, each holding a saber.
"Be on guard..." Chen Feilong roared.
"Don't be nervous, don't be nervous." Jiang Tian glared at Chen Feilong and Ling Yunzhi. "This road is so wide, everyone can walk on one side. Are you going to stop people from walking?"
"Sir, beware of assassins!" Chen Feilong quickly warned, just as Luo Xiaohu had been killed in the same way.
Chen Feilong and Ling Yunzhi didn't want anything to happen to Jiang Tian.
One hundred guard cavalrymen, each wielding a saber, blocked the road.
The luxurious carriage stopped 50 meters away from Jiang Tian.
The driver leaped off the cart and headed straight for Jiang Tian.
"What are you doing?" Ling Yunzhi roared.
"Our young lady wishes to speak with Lord Jiang. We wonder if you gentlemen would allow us to pass."
The coachman tucked his whip into his belt and picked up a pipe to smoke.
"Stand there with your hands up, and wait for us to check you before you move forward," Ling Yunzhi roared, immediately waving his hand at his men.
Two guard cavalrymen quickly rushed to the front.
"There's no need to be so cautious." Jiang Tian looked at the luxurious carriage and strode over to it.
The two guard cavalrymen were searching the coachman.
A pretty face peeked out of the car window: "This humble servant greets Young Master Jiang."
This beautiful face is extremely exquisite.
Her eyebrows were arched like willow leaves, and her face framed a pair of large, bright eyes that looked as clear as autumn water.
A high, straight nose, cherry-like lips, and shallow dimples.
This little girl is not only beautiful, but also quite playful and cute.
"Young lady, who are you?" Jiang Tianyou carefully examined the girl, but she couldn't remember where she had seen her before.
"My name is Ji Yanran." The young woman slowly stood up. "I am truly honored to meet the renowned Young Master Jiang here."
Xiao He stepped forward: "My lord, the Ji family is the richest family in the Great Xia Dynasty, and their businesses are spread all over the world."
The Ji family not only conducted business in the Great Xia Dynasty, but also maintained extremely close business ties with neighboring countries.
What business does a businessman have coming here to find me?
Ji Yanran jumped off the carriage and opened her arms: "Young master, there is no need to worry. I am a very weak woman and will not pose any threat or harm to you."
"If you are worried, sir, you may have your men search my body."
After Ji Yanran finished speaking, she smiled slightly, looking playful and cute.
It's clear that this girl is a very outgoing and carefree person.
"My lord, this Ji Yanran manages most of her family's business. Don't underestimate her just because she's a young girl; she's very shrewd."
It's said that even men fall for her.
"Miss, what brings you here to see me?" Jiang Tian stepped forward slowly.
Chen Feilong and Ling Yunzhi stepped aside.
The 100 guard cavalrymen also retreated.
"Young master, may we talk in the carriage?" Ji Yanran pointed to the carriage behind her. "There are some things I don't want others to hear."
"Young lady, haven't you heard that men and women shouldn't touch each other? You've invited me to your carriage, aren't you afraid I'm a bad person?"
