At the same time, in Daxia Dongzhou.
It was indeed the same situation as what the Japanese learned, it was chaos.
State pastoral office.
"Sir, except for our officers and soldiers' barracks, there is already fighting in other places. If our officers and soldiers don't come out, then for the government officials in these counties, this number is simply not enough to support them."
A person said to Fang Fu.
Fang Fu was looking at the map of Dongzhou on the wall and nodded.
"Tell the people in each military camp to make judgments based on the previous bottom line."
"Whenever the bottom line is exceeded, we will stop and crack down resolutely, but if it does not meet the standards I mentioned before, don't worry about it for the time being."
"The external reason is that there is no food and military pay, and we want to keep the situation under control."
Fang Fu said to the visitor.
"yes!"
The person who came took the order and ran out.
During this period of time, although Fang Fu stayed behind closed doors, he was not idle.
At present, Fang Fu is deliberately controlling the chaos in various counties in Dongzhou.
It can not only ensure that the current chaos will not affect the normal business operations of the entire Dongzhou, but also allow those restless people to emerge.
From the initial confrontation, it has basically become a business war.
Almost all started around the Zheng family.
at present.
Many wealthy businessmen and aristocratic families have also understood that if they want to rebel at this time and compete with the officers and soldiers for control of the county government and county government, they are asking for death.
Every time they attempted to commit suicide, they were suppressed by officers and soldiers.
But if they were only plundering in the field of commerce and trade, then the officers and soldiers would turn a blind eye.
The Japanese who were responsible for contacting the merchant families in Dongzhou were anxious.
After all, their purpose is not just to encourage these people to cause trouble, but more importantly, to cause chaos with the officers and soldiers.
Even in the process of fighting with officers and soldiers, it is a lose-lose situation.
They all know it too.
At present, the news from their side has been spread back to the Japanese country, and the emperor of their Japanese country will not let go of this opportunity.
I will definitely try my best to come here.
What they want to do now is to intensify the chaos and cause the current Dongzhou troops to suffer more losses.
In this way, when the Japanese reinforcements arrive, they will be able to capture Dongzhou with overwhelming force in the process.
But they still misjudged the importance these businessmen in Dongzhou placed on profits and business.
They don't want to go against the government. What they want is always business and maximizing their own interests in the process.
So after they tried to understand the government's attitude, they gradually began to leave the Japanese people behind and focused on studying how to capture larger trade routes.
There were even many people who told the government in Dongzhou about the whereabouts of these Japanese, so that the government in Dongzhou could eliminate these Japanese who were as annoying as flies.
All aspects are in full swing.
But the worst thing is the Zheng family in Dongzhou.
At present, all these things are unfolding towards the Zheng family in Dongzhou.
Although Zheng Shiqi also knows that all the things happening now are Zhang Bao's plan, and that what the Zheng family is losing now will be theirs sooner or later, but listening to the bad news coming back every day, Zheng Shiqi's heart is filled with excitement. Trembling.
I feel bad.
These were all defeated with great difficulty before, and yet they were captured just like that.
The most important thing is that during this process, the Zheng family obviously has the ability to fight back, but they still let more people jump out in order to take the overall situation into consideration.
This is the most difficult thing.
"Shopkeeper, your lord is here."
Just when Zheng Shiqi was frowning, a servant came in and said to Zheng Shiqi.
"ah?!"
"quick!"
"Please come in quickly!"
When Zheng Shiqi heard that Zhang Bao was coming, he stood up quickly.
"No need, you're not an outsider. Besides, I'm very familiar with your place."
Zhang Bao walked in with a smile.
Zhang Bao also knew that the loss to the Zheng family would be too great after the news that the enemy was lured deep this time.
Although he and Zheng Shiqi were old friends before, and he believed that Zheng Shiqi would not have any ideas now, Zhang Bao still decided to come and take a look.
During this period, it can be said that Zheng Shiqi was the first to make Dongzhou develop to its current level.
It is not only the promotion of business in Dongzhou, but also the support for the shipyard. The Zheng family in Dongzhou has made great efforts.
Even according to Zhang Bao, if it were not for supporting their shipyard, their Zheng family in Dongzhou would have developed even bigger now.
Moreover, even in the imperial court, there were many people who did not support Zhang Bao very much regarding shipbuilding to attack Japan.
But when this order was given to Zheng Shiqi, Zheng Shiqi completely involved the Zheng family without saying a word or asking a question.
So the current situation is that the matter of fully supporting Zhang Bao has not eased up, but will continue to suffer losses. This is naturally what Zhang Bao is not happy to see.
"Sir, why are you here suddenly?"
"Didn't I hear that you arrived at Dongzhou Shipyard?"
"I thought you were going to take action against Japan soon, so I didn't make arrangements."
"If I had known that you had plans to come here, I would have picked you up in advance."
Zheng Shiqi said to Zhang Bao with a smile.
"Are you feeling distressed during this time?"
"I see that the Zheng family's property in Dongzhou has shrunk by half. Do you have any objections from the Zheng family?"
Zhang Bao asked Zheng Shiqi with a smile.
"Sir, look at what you said. If it weren't for your support at that time, Dongzhou would not be as big as it is now."
"Besides, even if we have lost a lot now, it is still much greater than when we were ourselves before. There is nothing to say."
Zheng Shiqi said with a smile.
Zhang Baoneng came here, no matter what the reason was, it finally gave Zheng Shiqi a backbone.
Knowing that Zhang Bao did not give up on them.
"Don't worry. Sooner or later, you will get back the lost things twice as much."
"I heard that when some big families were destroyed in the end, it was because of some unworthy descendants. So for some big families, when they develop to a certain scale, this is the way to pull out the fuel from the bottom of the cauldron and wipe out those who have bad intentions. It’s actually not a bad thing if bad people are exposed.”
"I believe a lot of things happened in your Zheng family this time, right?"
Zhang Bao asked Zheng Shiqi.
