Chapter 1197

It's what Zhang Yu always wants to go south for inspection.

He wanted to know if the South had developed as he had imagined.

Zhang Yu is very concerned about the expectation of the south.

As long as the South can develop, there will be no hunger in China, which is very important to Zhang Yu. Many of Zhang Yu's strategies need to make the south develop.

For example, if Zhang Yu wants to protect the environment in Northwest China, he can't let the large-scale cultivation of food destroy the environment. So where does their food come from?

Only when the southern side continuously transports food, can they carry out other activities and then make money to buy food.

It's too far to think about these. In his life, Zhang Yu can only put forward some ideas and big strategies for future generations to implement.

But if Zhang Yu wants to lay a good foundation, at least it is cheaper to transport grain. If it is too expensive, it has no specific significance.

Zhang Yu stayed in Shanghai for several days, and many of the ideas here still can't meet Zhang Yu's requirements.

However, Zhang Yu allowed them to improve slowly, but they must be able to see the actual effect.

At the same time, Zhang Yu planned several industrial lands far away from the urban area, preparing to build many workshops here.

The workshop owner won't refuse this time. It's close to Shanghai and the port. It's very convenient to transport the goods.

Zhang Yu encouraged business and money making, but also encouraged the cultivation of food. There was no food instability.

The effect is very good. In the south, not only the industry and commerce are very developed, but also the agriculture has not fallen.

In this way, thanks to Zhang Yu, he has been promoting innovation and developing the south.

Zhang Yu continued to go south, this time directly to Guangdong.

It took Zhang Yu a few days to get to Guangdong by boat.

Here, the port is very busy every day, and the tax contribution here has been very high.

When Zhuge Liang came, Zhang Yu had to give him a lot of financial aid, and at the same time asked him to intercept all taxes. Now that Zhang Yu came, he could contribute a lot of taxes every year.

The western part of Guangdong is also developing slowly.

Zhang Yu has a look at the port. In one day, three fleets come here. They bring back a lot of wealth from overseas. These wealth have to enter the customs here, and then calculate the tax.

The tax is very high. No matter what you bring back to sea, you have to pay 20% tax.

You don't have to pay taxes when you go out. Who knows if the businessman will have an accident and if he will make money this time.

So, we'll collect taxes when they come back.

In fact, it's very simple. When they go out, they are all commodities, and they don't have much money.

Can we cut off 20% of the goods as tax?

It's better to wait for them to sell, and then collect taxes from them, so that they can collect more taxes.

They made huge profits, so Zhang Yu charged them high tariffs.

20% tax is more than 100 million silver dollars a year, because it's too profitable in foreign trade.

Overseas gold and silver do not seem to need money.

A lot of gold and silver came in.

This makes China's gold and silver coins more and more, a lot of money to promote the development of Commerce.

This time, Zhang Yu is going to inspect the governance situation here to see whether officials are corrupt, whether the people are oppressed by the evil forces, and whether the regulations are implemented in place.

It's too far away from the center. Now the road is repaired. It takes more than two months to go back and forth once. Of course, if it's fast, it can be there in 20 days.

So, the situation here is not easy to grasp.

The situation in Guangdong is very good. It's a good place to connect southeast China and South Asia.

From here, the fleet will rarely be in danger, because many strongholds have been set up along the road.

These strongholds continue to grow, from a stronghold slowly into a county, and then slowly spread.

In the southeast, some big islands have set up strongholds.

Zhang Yu and his team have two or three fleets exploring every year, and then bring back the map.

Some businessmen also organize adventure teams. Once they find something valuable and offer it to Zhang Yu, they will get rich rewards.

A lot of goods are shipped out from here, and a lot of wealth is brought back.

Spices, Zhangyu they have found, opium, Zhangyu they also found.

These things are monopolized by Zhang Yu. Ordinary businessmen can only trade ordinary goods.

But ordinary goods can also make them rich.

Zhang Yu carefully investigated the officials here to see the life of the people here.

There is no doubt that this is a land of rapid development.

Zhang Yu made a secret investigation for about ten days, and then revealed his identity.

Zhang Yu's sudden appearance here gives the officials a big surprise.

It's thousands of miles away from the capital, but Zhang Yu is here.

The officials were shocked that Zhang Yu could suddenly appear here. I'm afraid that under the command of Zhang Yu, no one can be lucky.

Zhang Yu lived in Guangdong for a few days and then went back.

This time, the governance here in Guangdong is still good. Although there are many disadvantages, they are not serious.

"Next year, send a cabinet in for a while, and then it will be OK."

Although it is far away from the center, it is much more convenient for Zhang Yu to come and go. Zhang Yu has built a relatively complete post system. If it is urgent, he can come and go quickly.

When Zhang Yu goes back to the post station, Zhang Yu thinks of express delivery.

I don't know how to mail all the counties.

Express industry, mail business, I don't know if it can develop in ancient times.

If so, then there must be normal exchanges between different places.

Zhang Yu thinks that the capital and surrounding areas can be experimented first, which needs to be promoted slowly.

If you can, you can try.

Zhang Yu doesn't know if this business is possible to develop. In ancient times, besides sending letters or other things, it didn't seem necessary.

However, if there is no demand, we should develop the demand slowly and stimulate their demand.

Demand can be developed later. If Zhang Yu has this idea, take your time.

Letters, semi monthly magazines and general official documents can be handled by the post office.

This requires all roads to be repaired, and the timeliness will be fast.

It's a long-term thing. We'll talk about it later.

Zhang Yu returned to Jiangdong, where he started. The scale of Wangcheng is very large.

Today, the development of Wangcheng is not inferior to the capital, but also the center of culture.

Here, there are Jiangdong academy and Jiangdong businessmen who get up early.

Here, rich people gather, which is also the center of gravity around.

Zhang Yu returned to his home again. After many years, Zhang Yu was about to acquire the whole Chinese artifact.

"Time is almost up. Let me end this chaotic era and let the whole of China take off."

Zhang Yu's ambition is booming, and he is qualified to be the leader of this era.

Zhang Yu has asked the cabinet to prepare and will launch an attack soon.

His first goal is not Liu Bei, but Ma Teng.

Liangzhou, there is no insurance to keep.
