Yang Xuan returned to the temporary Prince Qiong's Mansion and told him everything he saw and heard. The third prince was also surprised.

Mr. Lu, on the other hand, sighed and said: "This has been the case in the place of exile since ancient times. If I hadn't seen the opportunity at that time, I would have ended up like this."

Yang Xuan wanted to gossip, but he held it back, after all, he was busy with the affairs at hand.

He explained his plan in detail, and then said: "This place is in dire need, and it looks like we are going to have a hard time."

The third prince waved his hand and said: "As long as there is hope, it doesn't matter if we live a hard life. We are still waiting for Mr. Yang to take us to sail the sea."

"No, no, my goal is to do business overseas."

Not long after, Xue Xian, the governor of the town, arrived: "I have met His Highness King Qiong, I have met Mr. Yang, and I have met Mr. Lu."

Yang Xuan quickly waved his hand: "No, no, no, no, I'm just a commoner and I can't afford this gift."

Xue Xian was slightly embarrassed, but he quickly put it aside: "His Royal Highness King Qiong, Mr. Yang, Mr. Lu, and the soldiers have gathered. Don't you have something to say, Mr. Yang?"

Yang Xuan waved his hand and said: "It's not me who has something to say, it's His Highness King Qiong who has something to say."

Xue Xian was robbed one after another. Instead of being angry, he seemed a little embarrassed, and then he invited everyone to come.

A group of people arrived in front of the government office. Two hundred soldiers were already in formation. Although they were swaying and lacked energy, every one of them looked excited.

The third prince inspected for a while, and then said loudly: "You are all soldiers of my Dasheng Dynasty. In the past, the court mistreated you. From now on, I will not mistreat you. From today on, every day in the future, I will treat you badly."

The monthly rations will be distributed as usual, and anyone who has not received the rations can come directly to the orphan."

All the soldiers looked happy.

"It is natural to serve as a soldier to provide food, but we do not support idlers. We do not need you to do hard work. You only need to fulfill your obligations as a soldier. One month later, there will be an assessment. Those who pass the assessment can continue to be soldiers.

Soldiers are fed and paid, but those who fail to pass the test should go home and farm the land to be paid."

Immediately, someone came forward carrying boxes one by one. As soon as the lid of the box was opened, they were all neatly packed with copper coins. The accountant began to count the heads and make a book to distribute the money.

"Thank you, His Highness King Qiong."

The soldiers bowed their hands and saluted, and some even clasped their hands together.

Yang Xuan nodded silently in praise. These three princes are quite capable. They are worthy of being royal children. This momentum is extraordinary.

At this time, the food supply was not rich, and the food purchased with money was still on the way, so the wholesale was all in copper coins, and the food was converted into copper coins according to the price.

Instead of complaining, the soldiers who had not arrived first were overjoyed.

Even Xue Xian, the governor of the town, also received his salary and put it in his pocket.

Yang Xuan asked: "Would the soldiers have any objections to using copper coins to convert grain?"

"No, no, to be honest, in Qiongzhou, as long as you are not lazy or disabled, you will basically never die of hunger. You are just short of money." Xue Xian said, "It costs money to buy cloth and make clothes, and it costs money to see a doctor and take medicine.

Spend money, and spend money on household expenses. As for food, you can fly in the sky, swim in the water, run in the woods, and the rice in the ground is harvested twice a year."

"If that's the case, then from now on we can only give out money but not food, okay?"

"That's naturally good."

Yang Xuan nodded: "Mr.

Xue Xian looked embarrassed: "His Royal Highness Qiong has just arrived. It is up to us to take over His Highness Qiong. How can we let His Highness Qiong spend money?"

Yang Xuan said: "His Royal Highness King Qiong is not a person who pays much attention to vulgar etiquette. Let's eat whatever you want tonight. Didn't Mr. Xue say that there is everything for running and swimming in the forest? I will wait for Mr. Xue and Mr. Qiu to get some delicacies from the mountains and seas to taste another day.

Taste it."

"Definitely, definitely."

Back at Prince Qiong's Mansion, the three of them found a place to make tea and chat.

The third prince asked: "Mr. Yang, Mr. Lu, from your perspective, how are these two Xue Qiu?"

Mr. Lu said while pouring tea: "This Qiu Junnai was born as a Jinshi. He once served as editor of the Hanlin Academy. He was exiled here because he offended his superiors. And Xue Xian also served as the governor of the Jingwei Command and Envoy Department. As for

Why he was exiled here is unknown."

Yang Xuan sighed and said: "These are all great talents, but now their edges have been smoothed by reality."

The third prince asked: "Can these two people be used by me?"

Upon hearing this, Yang Xuan and Mr. Lu turned to look at the third prince.

This is wrong. These two people are both officials of the Dasheng Dynasty. What does it mean to be used by you?

Mr. Lu's eyes flashed: "What do you mean, Your Highness?"

The third prince explained: "I also want to protect myself. Now that the prince is in power, my father's life and death are uncertain, and the other brothers are also watching with eager eyes. We are far away in Qiongzhou. If there is a change in the court situation, with a piece of holy order, we can

I am in a state of eternal doom."

Yang Xuan took a sip of tea and said: "Whether His Highness is out of self-protection or has other ideas, there is nothing wrong with using the four words for me."

Seeing that Yang Xuan had high opinions again, the two of them turned their attention to him again.

"This place is isolated overseas, but it is rich in products. If it is managed properly, it will not be a problem to dominate the world in the future. Even if your highness wants to take over Yingtian Mansion, it may not be impossible."

These words made the two of them pale in shock. The third prince waved his hands repeatedly, while Mr. Lu's eyes flashed with tears.

"Why is Mr. Yang so optimistic about this tiny corner of Qiongzhou Prefecture?"

Yang Xuan stood up, stretched out his hand and pointed towards the south: "This is not a corner of the land. It can be seen that beyond this sea, there are countless vast continents. Compared with the entire land, Dasheng is only a small part of it."

"Mr. Yang has been to the sea?" Mr. Lu was surprised. The knowledge he had accumulated in half his life seemed to be less than that of the young man in his twenties before him.

"Uh..." Yang Xuan pondered for a moment and said: "Overseas Hu businessmen once told me that the place we are in is actually a ball..."

Yang Xuan briefly talked about the concept of the earth. Mr. Lu was confused and the third prince was confused.

After a while, Mr. Lu retorted: "I once read in a miscellaneous book that the land of all nations is always like a round ball. Is it true?"

Yang Xuan nodded and said: "I will make a globe and explain this in detail when I have time. In short, sitting on Qiongzhou Island, overseas resources are inexhaustible, so after we stabilize, the first thing to do is to develop maritime trade.

And maritime transportation requires big ships, big ships that can go across oceans."

"But the imperial court issued a sea ban..."

"The sky is high and the emperor is far away. No one can control it. That's why I said that if Qiu and Xue can be used by us, they will definitely accomplish something."
