Chapter 72 Pre-sale! Refund if you are not satisfied

Chongzhen returned in triumphantly and held a grand ceremony in Nanjing to celebrate the regaining of Taiwan in a high-profile manner.

The army guard of honor and naval guard of honor, welcomed the streets, passed Zhengyang Gate, Hongwu Gate, and then to Fengtian Gate. The guard of honor that was waving flags all the way, was under the gaze of attention. Although it was a little bit untidy, it showed the mighty and majestic of the victorious army along the way. At the front was the flag bearer waving the Ming flag, followed by the colorful flag team holding the flags, and the colorful flag team.

It was a military band, and the military band was playing "Forward, forward, forward, forward, the Ming team moved forward..." The flute, Dongxiao, pipa, suona and gongs and drums also played the march particularly majestic. Behind the military band is the Army Team, and behind the Army Team is the Navy Team. Behind the Navy Team, there are enthusiasts beating gongs and drums, following the rhythm of the military band, which is quite charming.

Since the defeat of Sarhu, the Ming Dynasty has only been eroded by others for years. After decades of regaining Liaodong, it has not only not recovered half an inch of land, but also lost Beijing. In the end, it can only run to Nanjing, leaving half of the country. Now, a foreign war has finally won a complete victory. Although the opponent is small, its military power is still a bit awesome. Three days! In just three days! The Ming Dynasty completely defeated the Dutch who had worked hard in Taiwan for 20 years. For the people who were used to losing their troops and humiliating the country, this victory was like a long drought and rain, which made the people's long-standing numb hearts have once again developed a dream. The northerners living in a foreign land were even more excited. Since they could defeat the invincible red-haired ghosts in the past, who could stop the royal army from deciding to the Central Plains? Therefore, this celebration aroused a strong resonance among the people, and for a time, people began to re-evaluate Chongzhen who had been defeated repeatedly.

Chongzhen fought repeatedly and finally won a victory against the alien race. The people of the Ming Dynasty hoped that this was just a good start.

The next day, Ming Pao published an article titled "The Rich Taiwan Returns to the Embrace of the Motherland". The article highly praised the historical achievements of the regaining of Taiwan. The article pointed out that under the correct command of Emperor Chongzhen, the wise and powerful Emperor Chongzhen, he won the victory over the Japanese Navy, achieved a great victory in the attack on Taiwan, and finally recovered the treasure island of Taiwan in one fell swoop.

Although Taiwan is only one-third of that of Fujian, the cultivated land that can be reclaimed reaches more than 60% of that of Fujian Province. Its climate is good, with fertile land, abundant rainfall, and all seasons are like spring. It is a natural granary. Taiwan’s climate is not only suitable for growing rice, but also for growing sugarcane. The future plan is to build Taiwan into a town of fish and rice, an important granary, and a sugar sugar production base.

Qingfeng Mingyue Tower is now even more lively. Since its area has been expanded, it has adopted a fashionable reinforced concrete structure, equipped with fashionable glass and floor-to-ceiling curtains, the flow of people in Qingfeng Mingyue Tower has more than tripled.

Today, Zhao Wenxi made an appointment with a few fellow villagers from Liaodong to come to Qingfeng Mingyue Tower.

"Three guests, welcome! Do you have a reservation?" The waiter greeted him warmly and his attitude was so good that the customers were bathed in the breeze and bright moon.

"We booked a large platform, and I like to hear the desk booked by the silk shop. There are still people coming, and there are seven or eight people together." Zhao Wenxi snapped his fingers, and his tone was quite proud.

"It's Channel 22, please three people!"

Tan San is talking about the book, this time he is talking about the new book "The Emperor personally seeks Taiwan". This new book is indeed freshly released, and listeners are flocking to it. So if you don't book a seat, then I'm sorry, the seats have been booked, and you can only come again next time.

Zhao Wenxi's fellow villagers gathered together in a while and started chatting while listening to books.

Tan Sanzheng talks about the Iron Birds section:

"By the way, the iron bird is covered with iron. Somehow, this iron bird can actually fly into the sky. Moreover, the iron bird flies very fast, almost faster than lightning. It is said that there are three birds sitting on the iron bird. Of course, these three birds are not good birds. They are said to be reincarnation of vultures. One of them sucks a cavity of sea water as soon as they open their mouths. Then what is sprayed out through his mouth is a demon rain. This demon rain kills the soul. It is a pity that many warriors in the Ming Dynasty die under this bizarre demon rain...."

When Li Sanhuai heard Tan San blowing around there, he immediately curled his lips and said:

"Tan Sanben is clearly fooling us. I have a brother who participated in the expedition to Taiwan this time. According to him, the iron bird is nothing scary. The iron bird's life gate is seven inches below the navel. He took a longer bamboo pole and poked its life gate. At first, the bamboo pole was not long enough, and a hero climbed onto the mast and then poked it down."

Li Sanhuai's words caused a burst of hilariousness. When Zhang Youcai heard that Brother Sanhuai was so innocent, he almost sprayed out a sip of tea he had just drunk. After choking, he said:

"Brother Li, the version I heard about is different from what you said. The brother of the next brother witnessed the iron bird falling into the sea with his own eyes. According to him, the iron bird was originally flying in the sky thousands of feet high. Not to mention that the bamboo pole could not be stabbed, even the flying bird gun could not be hit by it. However, this iron bird was very stupid and stupid and innocent. He thought that the Ming navy could not do anything to it. He wanted to get closer to see what the emperor of the Ming Dynasty looked like. As a result, when the stupid bird approached, three thousand flying bird guns were fired at the same time, and the iron bird became a dead bird, and it could not even be caught in the sea."

Xu Jingtang knew that Zhang Youcai made fun of Li Sanhuai, so he quickly changed the subject and said:

"I want to tell me that this iron bird is far less powerful than an iron fish. Legend has it that the iron fish is not invaded by all poisons, cannot be beaten or sunk, and the dignified Ming navy was helpless with it. In the end, the emperor made a plan and set up a fishing net array that binds dragons. It is said that it was inspired by Han Xin's ambush on all sides that he caught the iron fish. If it weren't for catching the iron fish, the iron fish's magic will be even more powerful. The demon fish's mouth spitted fire and burned several large ships in the Ming Dynasty. Do you think it's powerful?"

Seeing that the topic was getting further and further, Zhao Wenxi said:

"The Ming Dynasty's attack on Taiwan is indeed a good story. The episode of Iron Fish and Iron Bird has made Tan San's storytelling really popular. We finally got a little excited after hearing it. However, today I am here to come and discuss something. I wonder if you have read the "Ming Pao" or have you read the pre-sale advertisements about Taiwan's land in the past two days, have you read it carefully?"

Kuangshun sighed and said:

"I have read this advertisement countless times. I'm not to hide it from you. After reading it, I was very moved, but I was also worried, so I was hesitant. Therefore, I came today and wanted to hear your opinions."

When Kuangshun was in Liaodong, his family had thousands of hectares of land, and it was quite delicious to be a landlord. However, the Tartars occupied Liaodong and his family fled south. First, they fled to Shanhaiguan and then to Tianjin. After a few years, Li Zicheng came again and had to run to Nanjing. The south fugitives here in Nanjing were all preparing to buy land in Jiangnan with money. Seeing that the price of the land was rising, and there was still no market for the price. In this way, Kuangshun's dream of landlords seemed particularly difficult to fulfill. So Kuangshun became obsessed with the Qinhuai River.

They are literati and scholars from all over the country. They all go to the Qinhuai River. Of course, the courtesans of Kuangshun, who are rich, look down on them. Talented men "don't forget to worry about the country when visiting prostitutes, and never forget to stay at prostitutes." People can sing high-profile drunken flowers and sleep in willows. Kuangshun's talent is average and he is not a match. So on the Qinhuai River, although Kuangshun seems to be chic, he is actually not very favored by the kiln sisters. Now, seeing the newspaper blowing Taiwan like flowers and buying land at will, I feel a little excited.

Gu Dakai was a hawker who fled to Nanjing from Liaodong. He was smart and ran fast, so he was not caught and killed by the Tartars in Liaodong. After arriving in Nanjing, he also tried different businesses, saved up a few dollars, and wanted to buy some family business. At this time, he took over the conversation and said:

"I heard that Taiwan has a lot of deer skin, and I also wanted to try my luck in Taiwan. On the one hand, I bought some fields and planted some sugarcane, and by the way, I started some deer skin business."

Feng Yongfu didn't know a few big words, and he made some money by selling sweet potato flour. When he heard that he could grow sugarcane, he immediately said:

"Since you can grow sugarcane, you can grow sweet potatoes even more. After Boss Gu said this, I even want to follow you to Taiwan. But I don't know how to buy the land."

Seeing that this fellow villager was honest, Kuang Shun quickly introduced to him:

"The advertisement says that Taiwan has two types of land. One is to reclaim land as paddy fields, and sell fur land, the price is one tael and two cents of silver per acre. When you arrive in Taiwan and reclaim your land into paddy fields, you can also refund four cents of silver. The price of paddy fields is actually eight cents of silver. The other is to reclaim land into dry fields, which is also fur land, and the price is eight cents of silver per acre. When you reclaim it into dry land, you can refund two cents of silver. The price of dry land is actually six cents of silver. Lao Feng just buy dry land, and it is said that the dry land there is also very fertile, and the harvest of sweet potatoes should be good."

Feng Yongfu was a little confused when he heard this, so he asked:

"Six cents of silver for dry land are really cheap, but why are you selling it for eight cents of silver and then refunding it? Why is this!"

Zhao Wen smiled happily and explained:

"This is to prevent the rich from buying land but not purging it, and it is deserted there. The four cents of silver in this paddy field and two cents of silver in the dry land are actually the reclamation fee. The court adopts the method of collecting first and then returning it to encourage you to reclaim the land. If you reclaim the land well, if you are not satisfied, you can still refund the money. You say that the land is not good, I don't want it anymore. The land can be refunded. The land can still be refunded. The land you buy is still refunded, and the money you bought is not moved to you. Of course, this is valid within one year, and after a year, it cannot be refunded."

"There are such good things! Then I have to buy some land." Feng Yongfu saw that the profit of the bag was not lost, so he made up his mind to buy land.

Zhao Wenxi immediately added:

"There is another thing: if you buy land for two years and don't reclaim it, you will be confiscated and returned to the official position."

Kuang Shun slapped the table and said:

"It's just this trick! I originally wanted to buy two thousand acres of paddy fields at one time, put them there, and wait for the fields to appreciate. After a few years, after the prosperity there, I will go to find someone to cultivate them. But after reading this article, I have to be careful. If you think that if you are used to enjoying happiness in the morning, you have to go to Taiwan in person and bring a group of people to cultivate them. I remember that Taiwan may be a place where birds can't poop, so I'll give in a little bit of a grudge."

At this time, Fatty Jia, who had not spoken, spoke:

"Brother Kuang, I'm worried too much! There is an insider news below, which is definitely good for Brother Kuang. I heard that Guang Shiheng is offering to establish Taiwan Sugar Industry Co., Ltd., which may also be known by Brother Kuang, but there are few people who know about it. This news is good for Brother Kuang. Should I listen?"

"Don't keep it a secret, come on."

"This sugar industry company, Guang Shiheng himself is the initiator. He recruited Ruan Dacheng and became the initiator. At first, he named it Everbright Sugar Industry Company. Later, when Director Wang found out, he was not satisfied with the name and asked to change the name. Then Director Wang helped them recruit an important initiator. Who do you think it is?"

"I said to Fatty Jia, you kid can really make fun of others. Just keep it aside and silence others' appetite. Tell me quickly, don't talk nonsense." Kuangshun was unhappy.

Fatty Jia was so happy that he laughed:

"Brother Kuang, don't worry, I heard that the man turned out to be: Zuo Liangyu!" When he said the three words "Zuo Liangyu", he particularly emphasized his tone. Fatty Jia continued:

"Is Zuo Liangyu rich? Of course he has money! But this time, Zuo Liangyu doesn't pay money, he only pays people. Why only pay people but not pays money? This will fall on the reclaiming fee. If you want to make sugar, you have to plant sugarcane. If you want to grow sugarcane, you have to grow a lot of fields. Like the climate here in Taiwan, it is most suitable for planting sugarcane. Therefore, the newly established sugar industry company is preparing to buy 200,000 mu of paddy fields at one time. 200,000 mu is 240,000 taels of silver. If it is cultivated, 80,000 taels of silver can be returned. But Guang Shiheng and Ruan Dacheng can temporarily attract the manpower to reclaim 200,000 mu of land! There are people here in Zuo Liangyu.

, This time, Zuo Liangyu laid off 80,000 people. These 80,000 people were not able to fight, but there was no problem in reclamation. Of the 80,000 people, 20,000 of them were sent to Taiwan for military reclamation, and the remaining 60,000 people. After digesting 20,000 people in Hubei, there are still 40,000 people who have not been there. Now, Zuo Liangyu is planning to send all the 40,000 people to Taiwan to reclaim 200,000 acres of land for the sugar industry company. After the reclamation, he rented these 200,000 acres of paddy fields on the spot to plant sugar cane, and the sugar industry company will collect all sugar cane. It is said that each of these 40,000 people has a little internal share of the sugar industry company. Rumor has it that Zuo Liangyu is very satisfied with this, and his 40,000 old subordinates are also very enthusiastic."

Kuang Shun heard Fatty Jia talk for a long time and had nothing to do with him. He stretched his face and said:

"I said to Fatty Jia, what did you say is beneficial to me, and why do you talk about something irrelevant!"

Fatty Jia shook his head and sighed:

"Brother Kuang! I haven't finished talking about it yet! The sugarcane fields of the sugar industry company are far from enough. It is said that the methods of planting sugarcane are different. Forty thousand people can plant 500,000 mu of sugarcane. 200,000 mu is not enough. Their goal is to target a person like Brother Kuang. If you buy the field, they will help you cultivate the cultivation fee. Then they will rent your land. The sugar industry company signs a lease contract with you. You don't have to go, just send someone to get the land deed back. You don't have to worry now!"

"This is indeed good news!" Kuang Shun finally grinned and smiled.

When Zhao Wenxi heard this, he immediately became energetic and said:

"In this way, I will buy him three hundred acres of paddy fields. At worst, I will be dissatisfied and then return it."

Fatty Jia patted Boss Zhao on the shoulder and said:

"Boss Zhao, you buy 300 acres of paddy fields and still want to return them. What's the return? Brothers can assert that in a year, you can never buy this price again! Just give your brothers the 300 acres to rent and plant, and it's also a planting sugarcane. What price does the sugar industry company offer, and what price does the brothers offer? Is it okay?"

"Okay! One word is determined!"
