Li Haoran blamed the system,[Why didn't you unlock the virtual storage space expansion earlier?]
If we had done that in Yangzhou earlier, we wouldn't have left the people of Yangzhou behind…"
The system explained," This system also has a check-in function. You can only check-in here to trigger the unlocking and expansion!”
Li Haoran had been heading west from Yangzhou. After passing through these cities, he discovered that Yangzhou was still the richest place.
The Huaiyang salt merchants there and those who participated in the canal water transport were all extremely rich.
Therefore, a single city's house could be raided for more than 50 million taels of silver!
And the cities that followed only managed to get 40 million taels of silver in total!
By the time Li Haoran arrived in southern Jiangxi, there were already 90 million taels of silver in the virtual storage space!
This was roughly equivalent to a year's worth of taxes in the middle and late Qing Dynasty!
In comparison, Li Haoran hated the Jiangnan gentry even more!
The Donglin Party and Fu Society that they formed in the Ming Dynasty were very rebellious. They refused to pay taxes, and the richest place paid the least taxes.
This caused the Ming Dynasty's annual tax revenue to reach several million, which was simply not enough for expenditure. There was no money for war, no money for disaster relief, and in the end, it led to the demise of the Ming Dynasty!
Now that the Manchurians were here, they didn't say anything to these gentry. Instead, they used a butcher's knife to force them to pay taxes.
In the end, these gentry obediently paid the taxes, causing the Qing Dynasty's annual tax revenue to reach 80 to 90 million taels!
Don't you think these Donglin Party Jiangnan gentry are cheap?
Of course, the Qing Dynasty's annual tax revenue was 80 to 90 million taels, which was after Yongzheng's gentry paid grain.
During the reign of Emperor Kangxi, he still did not have enough control over his subordinates.
Moreover, Kangxi was not as ruthless as Yongzheng, so they had an annual income of 30 million taels of silver!
Even so, it was still much stronger than the Ming Dynasty!
Or have you had enough of the oppression of the Manchurian traitors?
Or was he summoned by the miracle of Li Haoran's immortal world?
Therefore, many young men and women volunteered to follow Li Haoran.
When Li Haoran's group left Yangzhou, there were 50,000 people.
By the time he arrived in Gan Nan, he already had nearly 200,000 followers!
Only 20,000 of them were incorporated into the army.
Because Li Haoran advocated a policy of elite soldiers. If they did not meet the standards of future soldiers, they would rather not have them!
Most of the Green Army soldiers did not meet Li Haoran's requirements for the Renaissance Army!
After the Green Army surrendered, those who did not meet the requirements would become soldiers stationed in the mountains of southern Jiangxi.
The things planted would be things that had not been promoted on a large scale during the Kangxi era, sweet potatoes, potatoes, and corn!
Relying on the prestige and dominance that Oboi had established before,
Li Haoran easily swindled the cities open and looted them before quickly retreating!
All of them rested on the ship, not in the city.
It was to prevent the Qing army from coming from other places and surrounding them!
They went from the Yangtze River to Poyang Lake, then to the Gan River, ransacked the Nan Chang Prefecture, and then continued south along the Gan River.
When they reached Anji, they abandoned the boat and went ashore!
They were going to their destination, Luo Xiao Mountain. The well-known Gang Jing was its remnant!
Many soldiers expressed that they did not quite understand.
Why didn't they occupy a big city? Why did they come to such a remote mountain to develop?
However, they had already been convinced by Li Haoran's immortal methods.
They believed that Li Haoran must have had his own plans for doing this!
Li Haoran did this because he wanted to learn from that glorious example!
They would avoid the developed areas where the Manchu army was flourishing and go to the remote mountains and forests to promote their own ideas and develop!
Although the development of a place like this did not seem to be going smoothly, it was also not going smoothly when the Manchu Dynasty came to encircle and suppress it!
Li Haoran carried all the heavy objects by himself.
90 million taels of silver, hundreds of millions of catties of rations, large amounts of gunpowder, and large amounts of equipment!
As for the others, they only needed to bring their own weapons and soft clothes and they could walk on foot. It was as easy as traveling!
Chen Yuanyuan, Ah Ke, Ah Qi, and Nun Jiunan looked at Li Haoran in surprise. This feeling was really wonderful!
However, such opportunities were getting fewer and fewer. Li Haoran would not always follow them on expeditions!
Finally arriving at this sacred place, Li Haoran felt extremely excited!
Why weren't the others as excited as him? They were all confused. Why was the head of state so excited?
