In this way, the Western Region Protectorate, together with Loulan, carves up the land of the Northern Western Region.
The names of Ling Chen and Xie Chan began to spread. Especially Xie Chan, as a woman, actually showed outstanding ability to lead the army during this campaign in the North Western Region.
Add reguli.
For a time, the separation of the two women into the Western Regions became a matter of great interest among people.
"Is it so strong?"
Qin Changfeng was dumbfounded when he heard this: "Haha, sir, isn't this a good thing? How come he..."
Liu Zheng collected the letter and said with a wry smile: "A good thing is a good thing, but another problem has arisen. In less than a month, the military expenditures consumed by the Western Region Protectorate have already caused Silver Beach City to have a deficit."
"What?"
Qin Changfeng was startled.
Pei Yanran was beside her, also frowning slightly.
Shen Manqing didn't know much about these things, so she made tea beside her An An.
deficit!
You know, Silver Beach City at this time was simply a money-making machine. Whether it was refined salt, weapons and equipment, fine wines, soaps, perfumes, and later hang gliding, these were all violent industries.
And with the support of Yinzhou coins, everyone in the world knows that Yinzhou is prosperous.
Liu Zheng has really never been short of money for a while.
But now...
He still had to admit that he underestimated the consuming power of war.
Since the construction of the Grand Canal, this huge project has cost hundreds of thousands of taels of money every day. This is every day! Flowering everywhere naturally means spending money everywhere. Although the process is very fast, the speed of spending money is also Breathtaking.
As for the Grand Canal, Silver Beach City's income can still barely support it.
but......
Who knew that at this time, a lunatic like Ling Chen would appear again!
A war madman!
One month of fighting in the north and south cost Yintan City nearly ten million taels worth of grain, weapons and equipment...
horrible!
madman!
While he was fighting, he was asking Yintan City for money. Qingyang Shuo couldn't hold on any longer, so he wrote to Liu Zheng.
"Ah? This..."
Qin Changfeng looked confused.
Liu Zheng was also dumbfounded.
How can this be fixed?
This military expenditure is not a small amount of money. It can easily cost several million or tens of millions. It is no longer something that he can solve with just a small invention or a small scientific research.
now.
The entire financial system of Silver Beach City has become a huge market.
Liu Zheng even established several departments for this purpose.
Qing Yangshuo's worries were not unreasonable. You must know that the Sui Dynasty of the Sui Dynasty was driven down by the construction of the Grand Canal and the three conquests of Goryeo, regardless of the suffering of the people.
Yinzhou today.
It turned out to be almost the same situation.
On one side is the Grand Canal, on the other side is endless war.
And...compared to the Sui Dynasty, there is something very advanced in Yinzhou now. That is Yinzhou coins!
If this situation continues.
Once the Yinzhou currency collapses, it will be devastating to Yinzhou.
How to balance?
Liu Zheng frowned.
Who knows.
Just at this time.
A piece of earth-shattering news spread throughout Longyan.
It almost put Liu Zheng in a desperate situation.
Jiangzhou.
Negotiation completed.
Jia Shu signed the contract with Jiaozhi on behalf of Liu Zheng.
"Long Yan will pay compensation of 50,000 gold and 100,000 slaves. All I ask is that the Jiaozhi army withdraws from Jiangzhou from now on."
