At the beginning, everyone who watched the show thought that Qin Lang was a big boy, a young man who had never been beaten by society.

It wasn't until Long Jun showed up in person that people realized that Qin Lang's background might even be feared by Long Jun.

As for the last sentence Long Jun said to Old Man Ye, it has become an eternal secret, but some good people made up many versions.

Some people said that Lord Long was actually Qin Lang's steward, and that Qin Lang was the one who had never shown himself in the Dragon City Palace.

Some people also said that Qin Lang was Long Jun's younger brother, and of course he was helping his relatives in the three-acre land in Longcheng.

Some people even said nonsense that Qin Lang was from the royal family and aristocrats from the neighboring country, and Lord Long couldn't afford to offend him.

And so on, all kinds of rumors were flying all over the sky, and for a while, Qin Lang, a newcomer, became the hottest figure in Dragon City.

Admired by celebrities, admired by people in Jianghu, women in Longcheng can't wait to put their homes in Kanglefang, pass by Qin Lang on purpose every day, encounter all kinds of coincidences, compete for beauty, tease and flirt. Jealousy, but no one dared to speak ill of Qin Lang.

Within three days, the underground treasury of the Kanglefang Warehouse was filled to the brim with tens of millions of taels of gold, and Er Gouzi, Fang Zheng and the others were almost blind.

Qin Lang was not stingy, and with a wave of his hand, he simply demolished and rebuilt the entire Leisure Square. As long as he spent money, the progress of the project would be fast.

While Qin Lang was making plans for Kanglefang, Bai Ruoruo brought Bai Jingshan, the grandfather of the Bai family, to find Qin Lang.

For Bai Ruoruo, Qin Lang has always been using the mentality in his heart. After all, Bai Ruoruo's Fengyunlou system is an important means for Qin Lang to conquer the 36 states.

This visit by the old Patriarch of the Bai family also confirmed Bai Ruoruo's identity. Most of the Bai family's property was used as a dowry, and they only wanted to win the status of a concubine for Bai Ruoruo.

As for why there is still [-]% left, it is because Bai Jingshan has to leave some of it for his sons, even if these sons and grandchildren are not successful, at least it is enough for them to be rich for a lifetime.

Qin Lang didn't object to this. Anyway, Bai Ruoruo was already Qin Lang's person, so why not do it if it would bring him a huge dowry.

From then on, Bai Ruoruo became the accountant of Kanglefang. Without Qin Lang's instructions, Bai Ruoruo could do it perfectly.

For this kind of woman who is capable day and night, Qin Lang still likes this kind of woman from the bottom of his heart. Compared with Bai Ruoruo, Ye Qingxuan is much inferior in terms of business.

But Ye Qingxuan is young and has a nice voice. From being trembling at the beginning, to throwing himself into his arms later on, he found out his identity and became Bai Ruoruo's maid. Qin Lang, who was enjoying it, still enjoyed it very much.

The affairs of the Leisure Square have basically settled down. For the time being, Bai Ruoruo, who has returned home for the New Year, will be in charge of the work. Qin Lang is also relieved of her management ability.

He told Ye Qingxuan to assist him well, and told Caiqingchong and Caizizi to listen to Bai Ruoruo and explain everything before Qin Lang returned to Xianyang.

It was already January at this time, and there were still 21 days before the Chinese New Year. Xun Yu and other core ministers were waiting for Qin Lang to come back.

After all, internal affairs at the end of the year are extremely important, and plans for the new year have to be discussed at this time.

Qin Liuzhou, which has been developing steadily for a year, is ready to go, and the world pattern is about to change dramatically.

Chapter 0183 Year-End Internal Affairs (New Year Explosion Five)

On January [-]st, this was Qin Lang's third year in this world.

He has experienced too much, and he may have experienced things that others cannot experience in a lifetime.

There are touches, impulsiveness, anger, cunning, danger, joy and happiness, and more achievements.

Qin Liuzhou, except for Longzhou, which came here by bluffing, the other five states were all fought out with human lives. Although there is also an element of luck, luck is also part of strength.

Looking at the civil and military men of the Manchu Dynasty standing under the King Qin's Palace, Qin Lang was quite emotional. This was a lot more than last year's number.

When others had only a few third-rate civil servants and military generals, Qin Lang actually had many big bosses around him.

Qin Lang had just taken his seat, and after a few chats, Xun Yu, the hardworking chief executive, began to make a year-end summary again.

"On the first day of the new year, it is a great honor to be able to gather with the lord and all the adults. Life is like a fleeting moment. In a flash, it is the third year of following the lord. The depth of my feelings is beyond words. Today is the beginning of the new year. Since you should look back on the past and plan for the future, so the affairs of the yamen are summarized here, and someone will read it out for you..."

While Xun Yu was reading the report document very seriously, Qin Lang deliberately glanced at the document in Xun Yu's hand, it was more than three times thicker than last year.

I am amazed at the meticulous work of Xun Yu, and even more amazed at the scale of Qin Liuzhou today. This heavy report is both pressure and motivation, and it is an honor to be proud of for Qin Lang.

This year, Lanzhou Tongzhou was seized, Longzhou was deceived, and there were hundreds of millions of people under its rule. The more territory it occupied, the greater the responsibility, pressure and risk.

Fortunately, Qin Lang had so many talents present, perhaps it would not be difficult for them to govern the land of the six states.

But for Qin Lang, this sense of accomplishment was unique.

Xun Yu's summary took a long time this time, covering almost every field. No matter which field it is, after a year of vigorous development, it has reached a certain scale.

In Qin Lang's view, the development of these fields has surpassed the original historical track at this stage.

Qin Lang encourages innovation and is very open-minded. This has led to a situation where a hundred flowers bloom in various industries and fields in the entire six prefectures of Qin, with Qin prefecture as the main one.

All kinds of trendy things emerge one after another, which promotes the rapid development of society, and makes the public understand the power of the word technology.

The steam engine invented by Xu Shou has begun to enter the market, the forging and manufacturing of rails have no problems at all, and rail transportation has achieved impressive results in transportation.

There have also been major breakthroughs in firearms, from black powder to yellow powder, so there have been mass firearms aimed at cavalry, such as swarms of bees.

With the first-generation steam engine, it has also achieved great success in many light industries, especially in smelting and forging industries that require physical labor and began to play an irreplaceable role.

The emergence of short-distance tracks makes transportation faster and more convenient, shortens the speed of goods circulation, and greatly promotes the efficiency of industries such as production and commerce.

The troops were all equipped with composite armor with better defense and lighter weight, and the sharpness and toughness of weapons have been improved by leaps and bounds.

There are 360 million new elite soldiers and 40 special units adapted to combat in various terrains.

There are also many more preparations for weapons and equipment, such as compressed jerky, bread, canned food, candies, etc., standard multi-functional engineering shovels per capita, powerful triangular thorns, spherical gunpowder bombs, etc.

The Luoxia Island Dockyard has produced close to [-] medium-sized transport ships, and is currently developing and constructing giant combat sea-going ships.

With the popularization of yellow gunpowder, the prototype of primary artillery has been developed and has entered the experimental stage.

Not to mention the economic aspect, the gold and silver in the treasury of Fan Li's official bank has long been full, and the amount is many times greater than the total amount of the treasury.

In terms of people's livelihood, every family has money to use, and every family has surplus food. At least every three days, it is no problem to eat a meal of meat and drink a meal.

Eating habits have also changed from two meals a day to three meals a day, not to mention wealthy families.

Education, medical care, etc. are all assigned to the township-level units, and simple physical hygiene, daily ailments, epidemics, and infectious diseases can all be well treated.

Children from all households can go to public schools for free, and basic literacy, writing, arithmetic and so on are popularized.

Now there are hundreds of families in a village. Those who can read, write and count are all little dolls. If the family wants to count money and write letters, it is all dolls.

Generally speaking, under Qin Lang's rule, the problem of food and clothing was basically solved, and both industry, agriculture and commerce were paid equal attention, and they all made great progress and development.

The aristocratic family class still exists, and the gap between the rich and the poor is huge. Qin Lang is not anxious about this, nor does he think that it will be done overnight.

It is only conceptually that a core idea has been established for the people of Qinliuzhou, which is an indescribable sense of national pride.

Perhaps in the local area there are rich people who bully worse than him, but outside, no matter if they are traffickers or pawns, or rich businessmen and scholars, as long as they say a word of Qin dialect, I am an old Qin person.

No matter how difficult it is, someone will lend a helping hand, and no matter how difficult it is, someone will help. At this time, no matter whether each other's status is noble or not, as long as they are from the old Qin, they are duty-bound.

At the beginning, this kind of national pride only existed in Qinzhou, and later it gradually expanded to Zezhou, and then the majority of people in Lanzhou and Tongzhou also began to regard themselves as old Qin people. This unprecedented ethnic integration is an extremely rare phenomenon. .

Even Guan Zhong, Fang Xuanling and other famous ministers of the country thought this phenomenon was a miracle.

As for the New Year's plan, each yamen is very confident in guaranteeing one and two, that is, at least double the growth rate, and strive to achieve double the growth rate.

Qin Lang thought that these plans were too conservative, so he directly raised them to a higher level, and they had to reach the level of guaranteeing two and hitting three.

Many ministers thought this was a bit too radical, but Qin Lang didn't think so, let alone two or three times, five times the level could be reached.

On the one hand, he still has two booster cards and accelerator cards in his hand. On the other hand, the birth of the first-generation steam engine is bound to bring about a revolution in the industrial system, and its development speed is unimaginable to those who have not experienced industrial society.

Therefore, Qin Lang is very confident that he will develop rapidly with the strength of the six states, and strive to make the entire social system surpass others by half a century in this year.

The last thing is taxation. Qin Lang still maintains the rules set at the beginning. According to the time, Qinzhou took the lead in collecting taxes, half a year later Zezhou began to collect taxes, and a year later other states began to collect taxes one after another.

As for taxation, the categories submitted by Fan Li are already very complete, focusing on agricultural and industrial taxes, and emphasizing commercial taxes, but the ratio is also very reasonable, [-]% of agricultural and industrial taxes are mainly used for infrastructure expenses, and [-]% of commercial taxes are included in the government treasury.

The internal affairs basically took a whole day to end. The amount of information was too large. It took Qin Lang a long time to digest it. There was nothing to say all night. Qin Lang came to the meeting hall early the next morning. The most important military and political meeting is the most exciting one. Most looking forward to.

Especially those counselors and generals, their eyes were shining with excitement.

Chapter 0184

At the end of the year, the military administration, Xun Yu, the chief steward, could finally take a break, and the meeting was handed over to Zhuge Liang to preside over it.

Zhuge Liang's report is divided into three major directions, one is the armament situation of the six prefectures of Qin, the second is the current situation in the 36 prefectures, and the third is the military strategy for the coming year.

Let’s talk about armaments first. After a year of development, weapons and equipment have been greatly improved due to the development of technology and technology.

Up to now, the total number of soldiers in Qin Liuzhou has reached tens of millions, the number of auxiliary soldiers has exceeded 3000 million, and the reserve of agricultural soldiers is close to [-] million.

With the current military strength, the equipment of tens of millions of soldiers far exceeds that of the 36 states. Even the auxiliary soldiers are all made of special cotton leather armor, and each farmer and soldier has a set of leather armor.

What I want to focus on here is the cotton leather armor of the auxiliary soldiers. This kind of armor is cheap to make, strong in defense, warm and durable, light in weight, and highly flexible.

The exterior is sewn with cotton leather, and the interior is filled with extra-thick cotton and iron sheets, and the key parts are protected by multiple layers of iron sheets.

It doesn't look outstanding, but its anti-destruction ability is no less than that of other iron armors. With better protection for auxiliary soldiers, the casualties on the battlefield will be greatly reduced, which has a very obvious promotion effect on preserving strength and improving combat effectiveness.

However, it sounded like Qin Liuzhou had sufficient troops, but when divided, the number of soldiers in each state did not exceed 200 million.

To Qin Lang's surprise, among the 300 million newly trained special warfare troops in Qinzhou, there were [-] Shenji Battalion and [-] Shenji Battalion.

Although the number of people is small, it can play a big role on the battlefield. For example, the swarm of bees and other firearms equipped by the Shenji Battalion can create shocking lethality whether it is defensive cavalry or positional warfare.

The Shenyuan Battalion is all the elite among the elite, and it is specially used as a trump card in raids and sieges. Every two people form a group, and they can rely on the Shenyuan made by Huang Yueying to glide from high altitude. Entering the city unknowingly, thus opening the city gate, and cooperating with the troops outside.

In addition, there are more new equipment emerging one after another. Even Qin Lang has to appreciate the wisdom of the craftsmen.

In terms of the situation, the stone peak of Yazhou has been facing Jiaozhou and Pingzhou for more than half a year, and the consumption is huge and the loss is extremely heavy.

Zhu Youwei from Pingzhou and Liu Xuezhou from Jiaozhou were not much better either, they were both fighting against Shi Feng's attack to the death, and they were looking like they were going to die.

These three states were completely mired in the quagmire. No matter who was discouraged, they would be doomed. As the Spring Festival approached, the two sides had no intention of giving in at all.

After reading the specific battle report, Qin Lang still admired Shi Feng a little. This guy didn't fight against two states by himself, but actually carried four states with the strength of one state.

Pingzhou has Leizhou's continuous support behind him, and Jiaozhou has Yizhou's support. It's no wonder that Shifeng has a hero like Li Cunxiao who can only compete [-]-[-] with these two states.

Li Ming and Yang Kai still did not move at present. On the one hand, Li Ming's internal troubles are very serious, there has been a food shortage, and the people are very angry.

Without Li Ming's pressure on Yang Kai's side, he is recuperating. Because of Qin Lang's operation, Yang Kai's department is not short of food for the time being.

What's interesting is that in Xiazhou, Zhen Mi from Bianzhou and Zhang Hao from Huizhou joined forces to attack Xiazhou. It was originally a [-]-[-] situation. As long as time goes by, Xiazhou will definitely not be able to resist the attacks of the two states.

Who knew that Qin Lang had convinced Zhang Hao that the fight on the battlefield was extremely lively, but there was no actual effect at all.

Zhen Mi from Bianzhou and Cao Jie from Xiazhou fought bloody battles for several months. Both won and lost, and the losses were not small. Seeing the end of the year, Zhen Mi saw that there was no way to break through Cao Jie's defense line, so she had to withdraw her troops to stick to the border. Hao also took advantage of the donkey to hide under the slope and rejoiced to celebrate the new year.

Diao Chan from Yangzhou and Da Qiao from Ningzhou also made no progress. Diao Chan attacked Bozhou, and Da Qiao attacked Mingzhou, and they all received desperate resistance.

It was almost impossible to resist, but as a result, Li Ming withdrew his troops, Yang Kai's pressure dropped sharply, and the army pressed down on the border of Yangzhou to watch.

After achieving a little bit of victory symbolically, Diao Chan had no choice but to turn his flag down and turn into a defensive posture.

Seeing that Diao Chan stopped fighting, Da Qiao in Ningzhou had no choice but to give up attacking Mingzhou, which turned into a defensive confrontation.

This situation in the southern states was thanks to Qin Lang's strategy of supporting the weak and resisting the strong, which gave the precarious southeastern forces a chance to breathe.

Wu Meier in the north showed no mercy in the face of King Zhou's provocation. To Qin Lang's surprise, Wu Meier not only resisted King Zhou's attack, but also brought back Cixi's Mizhou and Sun Jiale's Huizhou. Swallowed half of the territory.

After carefully reading the battle report, Qin Lang had to admire Wu Meier not only for being good at night, but also for being unambiguous in fighting.

Originally, she only had two [-]-star generals in her hand, but suddenly there were two more generals. The four generals, Changsun Wuji, Yuchi Jingde, Qin Qiong and Li Xiaogong, were all [-]-star generals. .

Basically, the battle situation in the north has become a stalemate. Wu Meier is thankful for not attacking the other half of Mizhou and Huizhou. Cixi and Sun Jiale don't have the guts to put their faces on it and get beaten.

King Zhou saw that he couldn't chew on Wu Meier's bone, so he had no choice but to turn off the fire and keep silent.

Finally, there are Liangzhou and Dingzhou in the northwest, which are extremely quiet, and there is no sense of existence in the quiet.

According to the secret letter sent back by the law circle and Guo Jia, Liangzhou and Dingzhou have formed a life-and-death alliance. There is nothing external, but internally they are working hard to develop and strengthen the border to prevent Qin Lang from invading in the coming year.

Whether it is Dingzhou or Liangzhou, there are more than 500 million soldiers on the border respectively, and a border defense system similar to the Great Wall is still being built.

Qin Lang couldn't help laughing when he heard this. The two women hugged each other. It seemed that they were already ready to fight to the death. What's the point of building a more solid border defense system?

You must know that the most lethal thing is to disintegrate a regime from within, and this has nothing to do with military defense.

But now Guo Jia and Fazheng are like two cancers, which have penetrated into the bone marrow of Dingzhou and Liangzhou. Even if they are discovered in the future, the interior of Liangzhou and Dingzhou will be riddled with holes.

According to Sun Wu's art of war, the first is to attack the enemy, the second is to attack the enemy, the second is to attack the army, and the next is to attack the city. With Qin Lang's current strength, the army is the last resort. When it comes to using troops, it must be killed with one blow. , will never learn other strengths and fight any tug-of-war stalemate.

Either don't fight, if you want to fight, you will crush them with a crushing force.

The third part is the new year's military division strategy given by the military division group, which is mainly the result of in-depth research and exercises around external expansion.

Although it was all on paper, the sufficient sources of information and the background of Qin Liuzhou gave the military advisers enough confidence.

Qin Lang listened and watched, and all the strategies were divided into three factions, one was the old-fashioned faction to deal with the two northwest states, the other was the hawks to deal with the southern states, and the other was the conservative faction to fight against the outside world first.

It took Qin Lang a long time to digest the planning strategies of the three directions. From Qin Lang's point of view, the three directions are all good and have their own reasons, and the data are detailed and well-founded, not empty talk.
