Chapter 1438: Yunwu Villa

Both of them were silent. They stayed in Xinning for a long enough time and witnessed with their own eyes how Xinning County grew from a remote countryside to a commercial county today. It is no exaggeration to say that without the strength of the Ming Dynasty, there would be no Xinning County today. If the Ming Dynasty was a big tree, then Xinning County was a vine that climbed on this big tree and strengthened itself by absorbing the nutrition of the big tree. Without this big tree, Xinning County would be immediately defeated back to its original form.

People in Xinning County have become accustomed to their current life. The original land production was not enough to support the entire county. In recent years, with Xinning County’s increasing wealth, the population has also begun to grow explosively. In the past, they were not able to raise their children and dodge babies, but now they naturally do not exist. After no longer having the burden of life, the idea of ​​having more children and rich people immediately occupied the minds of ordinary people. Wu Teng originally estimated that in a few years, the population of Xinning County would double.

If you really want to leave the Ming Dynasty, how can these people support you? Thinking about it, he is trembling. Those who are extremely hungry can do anything.

"Zhang Chao, tell me, what kind of constitution should we have now?" Wu Teng asked.

Zhang Teng smiled bitterly: "Monkey King, although I am an inner guard, I have been with you for a long time. When Commander Yang was alive, he had already seen this clearly. He wanted to get me away again and again, but you pushed me back. Who doesn't know that I have voted for you? Do you still need to test me? Of course, what do you say? "

Wu Teng smiled: "That's right. Your inner guard has changed his commander. What's the same constitution now?"

"It's strange. After Commander Lei took office, he never asked me to go back and replace him again. He encouraged me and asked me to do a good job in Xinning."

"Fuck him!" Wu Teng swears violently. "Can your subordinates control them?"

"There is no problem with this." Zhang Chao nodded: "The county magistrate has never been to our Xinning inner guards over the years, and everyone is convinced by you. No county magistrate in that place can treat people like you. You also know that people like us are not welcome."

"Xinning seems to be full of flowers, but in fact there are many crises. We have no other way to come. If we really anger the Ming people and cut off this business road, we will immediately fall into trouble. The court only saw what we looked on, but did not know where our money came from. Now the relationship between the two countries is tense, so we must be extremely careful. It is no longer possible for the court to release taxes. We have paid the taxes for a year in advance, and no one can say anything." Wu Teng thought for a while and said.

Zhang Chao nodded: "The county magistrate said, there is no such reason. It's just that the county magistrate, we must make some preparations in advance. Where to go, the county magistrate should make an idea early."

"What can I do to get? I can only take one step at a time." Wu Teng sighed.

Zhang Chao hesitated for a moment and said, "Mr. Governor, before I came here, Izumo County sent news, saying that Geng Qiancheng wanted to meet you."

"It's better not to see you, but the left and right are just those words. I really can't make up this decision." Wu Teng was a little worried. Over the past year, Geng Qiancheng had also met him secretly several times. In the end, the topic always revolved around the matter of asking Wu Teng to directly join the Ming Kingdom.

"Minister, let's meet him!" Zhang Chao said aily: "Now our life gate is in the hands of others. Not to mention anything else, Geng Qiancheng only needs to order him and Izumo County is not allowed to sell grain like our Xinning. With our Xinning warehouse, how long can it last? In the past two years, we have not stored a large amount of grain."

Wu Teng was stunned and patted his forehead in annoyed manner, "It's really uncomfortable to be pinched by someone. Or I should ask Che Zhe to hit him forward. If he could grab another county from Lingchuan, at least next year, we will not be as embarrassed as we are now."

"Minister, you forgot that Leye County is still in the hands of the Ming people. If we want to do this, they will have a big problem as long as they interfere with it." Zhang Chao whispered.

Wu Teng was stunned for a while and sighed in a sad voice: "Then let's meet. No matter what, they can't stop the input of food, nor can they cut off the trade route. Is it still in an old place?"

"Yes, it's still an old place." Zhang Chao nodded.

"You go and arrange it. We will meet him in three days."

On Yunwu Ridge at the junction of Xinning County and Izumo County, there was an important military camp in the past, with heavy troops stationed. However, as the relationship between the two countries entered the honeymoon period, the relationship between Xinning and Izumo was like a blend of water and water, and the garrison of this military camp continued to decrease. Later, Wu Teng and Zou Ming and Yang Zhi joined forces to attack Lingchuan County and seize Anju County, the main forces of Xinning County moved to Anju County, and Yunwu Ridge also became an important trading node on the border between the two sides. A large town was formed at the foot of the mountain, and the military camp on the mountain was abandoned, and Wu Teng never put a soldier here again.

Last year, a Ming businessman took a fancy to this place and bought the military camp from Wuteng for a large sum of money, turning it into an extremely luxurious resort villa.

There are enough houses in the military village, and Yunwu Ridge has magnificent views. Whether it is Izumo County or Xinning County, there are a large number of wealthy businessmen all year round. More importantly, it provides unparalleled services and soon becomes famous.

But not everyone is qualified to spend money in a resort villa. Those who can get here are basically wealthy businessmen who are numerous between the two countries.

Here is another heaven and earth, but one is in the capital of Ming Kingdom, while the other is hidden among the mountains and ridges. In fact, many of the people here are indeed from heaven and earth. The boss who opened this villa has the backer behind the mountain.

Because it was the former military camp, it was not comparable to ordinary places on the alert. The only road up the mountain was sealed and Yunwu Villa was isolated from the world.

The mountains are covered with snow, but as soon as they pass by the pavilion, the steps made of whole stones are gritted with snow and are not sticky, revealing various carefully carved patterns on it. Although it is the middle of winter, every few steps, a pot of flowers is placed on both sides of the stone pillars. Most of them are not in full bloom at this time, but they are now blooming and blooming against the season. Wu Ning is very clear that to do this, the money spent is not small. In order to make guests feel physically and mentally happy, Yunwu Villa has done everything to the extreme.

Of course, the wool comes from the sheep. Those who want to enjoy these services will naturally pay a lot of money. The so-called "a smile" is nothing more than that.

Wu Teng has a special identity and has come here a lot, so of course he doesn't have to pay.

Wu Teng, who was dressed in casual clothes and only brought Zhang Chao and other guards, climbed up the mountain step by step. Of course, there was a horse road next to the steps, but few people rode up the mountain. Walking on such a road was a great enjoyment and psychological satisfaction. Yunwu Villa obviously knew this truth well. The steps were spotless, and some snowflakes fell slightly and someone came up to wipe it clean. However, the horse road next to it was covered with snow, and no one paid attention to it.

Of course, there were not only Wu Teng, but there were other people who came to see each other, but they just nodded and smiled. Those who could go here were not ordinary people. When they came to see the tribute at this time, they would be unbeautiful and tacit, and everything was indifferent.

Half an hour later, Wu Teng arrived at the gate of Yunwu Villa and looked up at the military camp he built with his own hands. Wu Teng felt sighing in his heart. The once solemn and majestic military camp now could not see the shadow of the past. The continuous building that appeared in front of him could only be described as luxurious.

Someone had been waiting in front of the villa and led the different people to different places. Even though they were all high-ranking customers, they would still be divided into different levels. For example, Wu Teng is naturally the most noble guest.

Under the guidance of the Qingyi servant, he came to the freehand building where he lived here. When he entered the room, he was surprised to find that the room he was familiar with had undergone great changes. The most obvious thing was the dozens of windows in this house. They used to be covered with window paper, but now they are equipped with transparent glass that can be seen by others.

"Is this glass?" He walked to the window in anger and reached out to caress the cold window. The temperature difference between inside and outside the house was quite large. There was a faint mist on the glass. When he reached out, the boundless magnificent scenery outside the window immediately came into his eyes.

It was a waterfall falling from the sky, but now it has become a unique ice waterfall hanging down on the cliffs. He used to like to live here because of this waterfall that poured down with an arrogant momentum.

"Yes, this is glazed glass. The Ming Dynasty has already studied how to make it. Our Yunwu Villa is one of the first to get these things. Lord. In the Ming Dynasty, these things are now only installed in the homes of the Imperial Palace and the Government Hall." The servant in the green clothes said proudly. "The output is very small, and the glazed glass in this room alone is worth tens of thousands of gold."

Wu Teng was amazed. He naturally knew that this thing was precious. There was a set of glass wine utensils in his mansion. They were usually very precious. Only when important guests came would come out to entertain them. I didn't expect that such a large piece of glass could be seen here. I stretched out my fingers and tapped them lightly, and a crisp sound came, which was extremely pleasant.

"I don't know when I can sell it out, but this thing can make a lot of money." He couldn't help but say.

The servant in green smiled and said, "This villain doesn't know. The adults will take a break first. If you have any needs, just give me instructions."
