Seeing Li Jin's gaze, Zhu Biao coughed twice, and then said:
"Don't worry, Marquis Yingchuan, the emperor has agreed to this, otherwise we wouldn't let you come to train troops."
"I will guarantee this matter. If anything happens, I will be responsible for it."
Zhu Biao is very loyal and takes all the blame on himself. It can be said that Li Jin and Fu Youde have no responsibility at all.
Seeing Zhu Biao speaking so decisively, Fu Youde and Geng Bingwen looked at each other and then said:
"Well, in that case, I will take this matter seriously. When the time comes, I will select suitable candidates from my subordinates and go to your camp to start training soldiers."
Seeing that Fu Youde finally agreed, Zhu Biao, Zhu Di and Li Jin Lanyu breathed a sigh of relief.
Military training was just a reason found by a few people, in order to drag Fu You into the water.
Fu Youde has an army of 100,000 in his hands. These 100,000 troops will be the key force for several people's actions in the future. Without Fu Youde's help, even Li Jin would not be able to implement his plan.
Now that Fu Youde has fallen into the trap, they naturally start eating and drinking, drinking and mingling among each other, and it's really lively.
...
Time flies, and it is three months in the blink of an eye.
The news of the opening of sea in Hepu County has long spread throughout the southwest region. Even businessmen from Guangdong, Fujian and other places have come all the way to Hepu County to do business with Li Jin.
In addition, there were naturally some businessmen who came all the way from Shanghu County to look for Li Jin.
After Li Jin was deposed, businessmen in Shanghu County wanted to find Li Jin and continue to cooperate with Li Jin.
After all, under Li Jin's protection or guidance over the years, these people have made a lot of money. On the one hand, they trust Li Jin to continue to make them rich, and on the other hand, they are reciprocating the favor and investing in Li Jin.
If an official wants to be promoted, the most important thing is his political performance, and the tax situation of a county is the best reflection of his political performance.
If these merchants open shops under Li Jin's rule, the taxes collected from this business will naturally increase greatly, which will provide a lot of help for Li Jin's promotion.
It's just that Li Jin was kicked to Qinzhou Prefecture by Zhu Yuanzhang before, so Li Jin had no chance to go back to Shanghu County, and naturally he had no chance to communicate with these people again.
These people wanted to find Li Jin, but they searched many places but could not find Li Jin's office. It was not until the Hepu County sea opening incident that caused an uproar that these businessmen found Li Jin's location again.
Even though Qinzhou is more than ten thousand miles away from Shanghu County, and even though Qinzhou is impoverished and has nothing to do, some businessmen from Shanghu County still come here without hesitation.
In order to repay their kindness and make money, Li Jin's methods made these people understand that as long as they follow Li Jin, they will eat meat.
In this way, within three months, there were more and more businessmen in Hepu County, and the number of immigrants was also increasing.
Because Hepu County is located on the seaside, people or businessmen from the mainland need to cross the entire territory of Guangxi from north to south to reach Hepu.
In order to ensure the safety of these people, Li Jin directly asked Fu Youde to arrange soldiers along the way and opened several roads to Hepu County to ensure that all people who wanted to come to Hepu County could arrive safely.
It's just that although these people have arrived in Hepu, there is no news at all about the opening of the port that they have been waiting for.
Except for Li Jin himself showing his face a few times, no news came out.
Just when everyone was waiting impatiently, a piece of shocking news came out from the government office!
