There is a one-way talisman communicator, even if it is tens of thousands of miles apart, it is quite convenient and quick to connect Chen Ying with Ling Feng, who is in Dingzhou.
He didn't say anything nonsense, but just reminded him that there would be many powerful people in the late empire hinterland.
Let him pay more attention and take precautions to prevent Dingzhou from being affected.
If you have a lot of energy, you can pay more attention to the changes in the empire's hinterland and the prefectures and counties around Dingzhou.
It’s not that I have other ideas, but that I don’t want to be caught off guard by a sudden change, causing some ill-hearted existences to take advantage of the loopholes.
Ling Feng did not take on a big deal, but just said he would pay attention.
Chen Ying was very satisfied with this. As long as Ling Feng’s mentality does not have any problems, there will be no trouble in Dingzhou in a short period of time.
By the way, the northern region and Dingzhou are bordered by the border, and can be said to be vast and sparsely populated.
According to official statistics, the population of the two states is less than 10 million, but the area is probably less than one million square kilometers.
Such a place was definitely a "barren land" that was difficult to control in the feudal dynasty era, and in fact it was indeed the case.
If it weren't for the large number of border troops stationed, the imperial capital wouldn't care about the life and death of the North and Dingzhou.
To put it bluntly, in fact, the empire had entrusted the two states to Chen Longcheng, the Duke of Zhenbei, to serve as a disguised fiefdom.
But a few years ago, because the princes competed for the throne, Dingzhou and the North were favored by the third prince, and they sent officials to come over through some means, hoping to turn the two places into prefectures and counties directly under the imperial capital.
Chen Longcheng, Zhenbei Gong, and a group of generals from the northern region did not engage in much entanglement.
It is a great thing for the two places to spend energy directly under the jurisdiction of the court.
Anyway, as long as there is no problem with the 300,000 border troops affiliated to Zhenbei Gongfu, everything else can be discussed.
Especially in the north, the population is only over one million, but it is necessary to maintain the military supply of 300,000 border troops. The pressure is imaginable.
If it weren't for the big head, the court would have been responsible, it would have been impossible to maintain it long ago.
Now that the court wants to take over the whole thing, it means that the 300,000 border troops are responsible for providing support, which is naturally the best thing.
As for the control of the 300,000 border troops, it is impossible.
As long as they are still stationed in the northern border, they will not be able to be really attracted by the court, and the court will not do such a crazy move.
A quiet and stable northern frontier is also a very important guarantee for the empire where its national power is in its booming state.
Unfortunately, the third prince was only in three minutes.
Even because of the border war, he suffered a lot in the north. He stayed in the bitter and cold frontier for several years and had not been able to move, and had long lost his original intention.
After returning to the imperial capital, in addition to recruiting a few powerful players including Ling Feng, the northern and Dingzhou were once again forgotten by the imperial capital.
Such a situation was as expected by the big bosses of Beidi and Dingzhou, and they didn't feel very disappointed.
Of course, with the rapid rise of Chen Ying and Feihu Zhiling, the identity of the No. 1 tycoon in Beidi and Dingzhou had long been replaced by Chen Ying, the Lord of Feihu Zhiling, from Chen Longcheng, Zhenbei Gong, to Chen Ying.
At present, the court even showed signs of abandoning the North and Dingzhou. As the number one powerful man in the North, Chen Ying naturally could not have no idea.
The court did not care whether the northern land and Dingzhou were obedient, so he naturally would not mind taking care of the two states.
At least, when the Gaowu era comes, it will not be affected too seriously, and it will even be a firm foothold in this special era.
Previously, the cheap father Chen Longcheng came to the door to tell him some irrational decisions between the royal family and the court, which was also a disguised reminder.
Don’t think that he is just the lord of Feihu Zhilu, or the veritable number one tycoon in the northern border. He must be responsible for both the northern and Dingzhou.
The first thing he did was to abolish the poll tax in both states.
If you want to say that this cap tax is really not a good thing, it is particularly easy to cause unfairness and the existence of hidden households. Even Chen Ying is not clear whether there are a large number of hidden households in Beidi and Dingzhou?
Perhaps in the heart of the empire, the head tax was a considerable income, but for the vast and sparsely populated Beidi and Dingzhou, the little money for the head tax was really nothing.
The key is that those powerful and powerful existences can easily pass on the taxes and obligations they should have borne to civilians with extremely poor ability to resist risks through the poll tax.
A little bit of trouble can easily lead to the emergence of a large number of bankrupt people.
The emergence of a large number of bankrupt people has provided convenience for the powerful and powerful people to acquire slaves.
With the decrease of free people, they all play with their own small manor economy. How can they develop trade and improve tax levels in Beidi and Dingzhou, which are vast and sparsely populated?
He was too lazy to pay attention to it before, and his father Chen Longcheng had no objection. What did he say, the so-called number one tycoon in the northern border?
But now the situation is different...
Even the cheap ones came to him personally and asked him to take on the responsibility of being the most powerful man in northern Xinjiang.
Chen Ying naturally would not be polite. The abolition of the capitation tax was only the first step, but this first step also caused great criticism.
"It's okay if you don't want to accept it. If you have any good things in the future, don't expect to get involved!"
He knows the greed of human nature. Some people just like to take advantage of others but not pay, so where can such a good thing come from?
Since we plan to manage Beidi and Dingzhou well, many actions will be indispensable in the future.
Not to mention the two states, they all turned into flying fox trails so prosperously and powerfully, at least they have to be much stronger than before, otherwise how can they show their abilities?
Chen Ying actually had a big plan in his mind, and wanted to transform the martial artist academy in Beidi and Dingzhou and establish a practice academy that could compete with the holy places of cultivation and super sects.
The current environment of Dingzhou and the northern region is just right for establishing such a practice academy.
It doesn’t matter if the land is large and the population is sparse. As long as all people can have the opportunity to enter the college to study and improve, that’s nothing.
Chen Ying is not only unparalleled in the world when it comes to territorial construction, but at least he has a lot of experience and will not make major directional mistakes.
He knew that many generals in the north who held heavy troops were dissatisfied with him.
Chen Ying didn't really care about this.
In the past, there was little connection between the Flying Fox Path and these generals.
But the situation is different now. Since his father Chen Longcheng wants him to take responsibility, these generals in the north who hold heavy troops must at least listen to the hello.
But he just wanted to abolish the capitol tax, which aroused the dissatisfaction and opposition of these northern generals, which was very funny.
It seems that the military expenditure of the 300,000 border troops is all supplemented by the collection of poll taxes.
But I just want to find a reason to give him a warning to the junior.
Chen Ying's attitude is very firm. If you don't listen to the hello, just get out of here. Don't expect to have the opportunity to incorporate it into the Northern Xinjiang system with him as the core in the future.
"The third brother, isn't it too strict?"
Faced with Chen Ying's tough attitude, his father Chen Longcheng did not come forward, but asked his second brother Chen Wu to come over to lobby.
"There's nothing to say!"
Chen Ying disagreed and chuckled: "Without these generals pointing fingers, they can avoid a lot of trouble in the future!"
"But without their strong support, it would be quite difficult to accomplish anything in Beidi and Dingzhou!"
Chen Wu smiled bitterly and said helplessly: "The influence of these generals should not be underestimated. Third brother, please consider it more!"
Just think about it!
The aristocratic families during the Three Kingdoms period of Gaowu were much stronger in terms of strength and background than the so-called generals in the North, but wasn’t they still miserable and disintegrated by him?
As for those who have really had a huge influence and would be difficult to take ruthless measures for a while, they rushed to the outer sea islands to become the local emperor, at least they would not interfere with Ji Han's normal operation in the future.
Joining the meeting, after traveling back, I still have to be furious from the so-called bird energy of the generals in the north?
Chen Ying just wanted to ask, do they have such qualifications?
Should we send Xiong Dazhuang, as well as a group of masters and great masters trained by Feihu Trail, to come and have a chat?
"Second brother, I heard that something was going on in the imperial capital?"
He did not rush to pay attention to this matter, but instead changed the topic and asked curiously.
"Yes, suddenly a few 'young' supernatural powers emerged, breaking the power structure in the imperial capital. It is inevitable that some chaos will be arisen!"
Chen Wu whispered: "I heard that even the princes lost their faces and made a little fuss!"
As he said, he looked gloating and shook his head repeatedly: "In order to compete for interests and resources, it seems that he has fought several more!"
"Second brother, will there be more and more powerful people in the future in the magical power realm?"
Chen Ying's words made Chen Wu completely come back to his senses, and he said incrediblely: "No, that's the realm of magical powers!"
He is just a congenital master at the moment, and he is still a little far from the innate master. The supernatural power realm is above the innate master.
Judging from Chen Wu's age, such cultivation is already quite good, and he is considered a young hero.
Unfortunately, in this era of spiritual energy revival and great changes in the world and environment, it is not only about the qualifications to practice martial arts, but also about luck.
"If a powerful person in the magical power realm really appears, a large number of people appear!"
Chen Ying asked with a smile: "What should I do in Beidi and Dingzhou at that time?"
what to do?
Chen Wu was stunned for a moment. He didn't know what to do.
"At that time, my second brother thinks that hundreds of thousands of border troops can still have the current deterrence?"
"How is that possible?"
Chen Wu said funny: "Although I have never seen powerful people in the magical power realm take action, I also know that they can mobilize the power of heaven and earth. I am afraid that they can destroy a thousand elite troops in one move!"
"Then my second brother thinks, do I still need to care too much about the so-called border generals?"
Two rows of neat white teeth were exposed, Chen Ying brought the topic back: "I am a dignified powerful man in the magical power realm, do you still need to care?"
Chen Wu was stunned for a moment, not knowing what to say...
