.,

No more foreign enemies dare to invade, no more days of war, the war is really over.

People can finally let go of their tense emotions and start to face their own lives.

So many veterans became teachers.

Of course, a place that has gone through years of war cannot be rebuilt right away, so the schools for teaching knowledge can only be located in many ruined walls that have been barely repaired.

The environment for studying is indeed not very good, but Fang Jifan thinks it should be done to immediately recruit children to study when all industries are waiting to flourish.

A group of uneducated children is terrible, they are the source of disaster.

So in order to encourage the children who come to study, a ration is distributed to all the children. Naturally, the food is very attractive!

A work shed was also rebuilt. Here, the printing workshop of Xishan Northern Province was established. They collected old paper everywhere, re-melted it, re-engraved it, and printed rough 'textbooks'.

The teachers were all war veterans, after all they had to find something to do.

All salaries are Daming's treasures.

The supply of canned food can temporarily allow Baochao to establish credit, and then... other food and daily necessities are needed to supplement it.

The French were quick to do things, and they sent the wheat very quickly. Of course, the Spaniards wanted to send the wheat but they couldn’t get it. As the most powerful emperor in the sea today, Zhu Houzhao sharpened his knife and sharpened it to an extremely sharp point. Obviously, he wanted to cut a large piece of meat from the hands of the Spaniards.

Judging from the frustrated expression of the Spanish envoy, this time, it may be very painful.

Wheat is also a staple food, and its best use is to make bread.

Fang Jifan is very interested in bread.

You know, the so-called bread in this era is just a big black steamed cake, but if you add some sugar and some yeast, its texture and taste will be completely different.

In the past, sugar was actually an extremely scarce resource in this era.

However, since the capture of Luzon, Daming has had a steady stream of sugar supply channels. This time the fleet came here and brought a lot of sugar, so... new bread has also begun to appear on the market.

Its price is also maintained at a level that people can still accept.

Of course, ordinary bread is still necessary, not everyone is willing to spend money to buy new bread.

After many measures, with food as the anchor, Daming Baochao began to be accepted by more and more people.

With some people taking the lead, people gradually became accustomed to using precious banknotes for transactions.

And the large amount of precious money brought by the fleet can be used to purchase all commodities in any place in the Northern Province, in addition to some relief.

After experiencing the economic crisis and war, most of the land in the northern province is controlled by Xishan, which has a lot of convenience!

……………

The weather was getting colder and colder, but on this day, little Joseph came to school early in the morning.

This is a school remodeled from an old church. Because of the war, it is difficult to find traces of God in the world. After some simple repairs, it is used as a school for children.

Today, little Joseph came to school for the first time, and he got a simple book and two loaves of bread.

He stuffed the bread into his book bag, and like all the children, he was shivering in the cold winter wearing shabby clothes.

However, with Fang Jifan's attention, the school got a large supply of coal, and the teachers built a simple stove themselves. Slowly, the classroom became hot.

Like Joseph's father, the teacher was a veteran who had served in the Ming army, so he already knew Chinese, but his Dutch was terrible, he could only listen but not write.

Of course, this is the norm in this day and age.

Even for the vast majority of people, ordinary people do not have a language, and the languages ​​of nobles and commoners are completely different. For teachers who were commoners before the war, he can teach here now, and he can get a salary of two taels of silver every month. Then I feel very content.

This salary, according to the current price of food, can barely support a family.

He was in no rush to start teaching children how to write, or even how to pronounce Chinese.

Although there is already a general consensus in the education circles in the northern province that learning Chinese is of great benefit to children. Knowing Han Chinese books, even... being able to understand Chinese in official documents is extremely beneficial to a person's future development.

What's more, even the treasure notes in his hand are written in Chinese characters.

And this teacher is special, he has a stern look, with a certain arrogance of all veterans, he looks at the children on the desk, and the first thing he starts to teach is war.

This is a long history of wars, from the division of Rome, to the Gothic War, to the Hundred Years' War, the Thirty Years' War, and the Seven Years' War, between Britain and France, and between the Holy Roman Empire. There was war after war in the Northern Province.

For generations, countless wars have never stopped.

How the fathers and grandparents died, how the plague caused by the war spread, and then the massacre of the Crusaders...

Little Joseph opened his eyes wide,

Li looked a little terrified.

"This is what the Emperor Ming said."

The words Daming Emperor and Zhen Guogong are already familiar to many people in the northern province, and even little Joseph already knows them well.

"We don't want this damned war. The war has passed. From today onwards, we will spurn the war. All our future struggles will come from exchanging wealth with our own hands. Or use our The sword of the Ming Dynasty to defend peace. Based on this concept, His Majesty the Emperor will recruit a peace army in the northern province. In the future, we will station with the Ming army in Gibraltar, Egypt, and maybe even Austria to defend peace. We will There is a fleet to keep the peace of all Europe, to keep our peace."

When the teacher said this, his expression was serious and his eyes were shining. He was convinced of this.

His Majesty the Emperor only trusts people from the northern provinces.

At least for the time being, this is the case, so although many veterans have retired,... a considerable military force will still be guaranteed.

He believed in any promises made by the Ming Emperor, or in other words, thought it was the grace of the Ming Emperor.

Little Joseph and his friends still have fresh memories of this class.

Because...they also experienced war after war. After the war, everything started to get better.

With the war gone, the once sluggish market began to become lively. On the way home from school, merchants could be seen bringing in a lot of wood. Men took hammers, climbed onto the roof, and began to repair houses!

At noon, the houses of each family began to ignite the smoke, and even some muddy places, workers began to lay gravel, and the road became smoother and smoother!

Next, a large number of buildings began to be constructed.

I heard that the French selflessly supported the new construction of the Northern Province. Of course, this was guaranteed by Lord Zhen Guo with the Peace Fleet as a bargaining chip.

Therefore... the new Xishan Bank, as well as Xishan Jianye, reopened here.

The nobles from all over Europe seem to have sent people here. They temporarily succumbed in this dilapidated inn. Some of them went to the negotiating table, and more people were not even qualified to be on the negotiating table. Outside the Governor's Mansion, anxiously waiting for the latest news.

Zhu Houzhao was too lazy to negotiate with people.

Fang Jifan excused himself to be sick, and a few maids from the Governor's Mansion, Wang Xizuo, carefully served and recuperated his illness.

So this matter fell on Liu Wenshan and Xu Jing, so they received foreign envoys from all over the world every day.

Naturally, this negotiation cannot be settled in a few words. The initial agreement was very difficult to draw up, especially the Habsburg special envoy was the most noisy. Of course, they left the meeting several times in anger, but soon It was discovered that no one persuaded them to stay. When the others continued to talk with Liu Wenshan and Xu Jing in detail, after two days, they gradually understood the situation and returned to the negotiating table obediently. Much better.

This agreement includes many items, such as how many troops need to be abolished to maintain the balance of power, there are strict regulations on the maximum number of warships that can be built, and it even requires that the enslaved peoples should be allowed to break away from the rule of the suzerain.

Among them, the most harmful is the Habsburg.

Through marriage, the Habsburgs occupied almost half of Europe.

This is tantamount to... The Emperor Daming used a hammer to knock them into pieces very rudely.

Under the title of the Holy Roman Empire alone, there are hundreds of German princes, all of which need to be separated from the influence of the Habsburg family. Not only that, the Habsburg family cannot have a branch, and rule Austria and Spain at the same time , which is even more unacceptable.

What's more, the destruction of the Armada led to the loss of all Spanish and Portuguese overseas territories.

The French are actually very supportive of this.

Because being able to dismember the Spanish Empire is not a bad thing for the French!

As long as Daming's status in the Northern Province is recognized, it means that France will become a leading power! Although this big country is very watery, after all, Xu Jing does not allow them to build warships, and all ports can only be opened to the northern province.

However, this is not unacceptable to the French. Their biggest motivation now is to encourage Ming to dismember the Spanish Empire. Every time they see harsher conditions, they are overjoyed, as if to It's the same as Chinese New Year.

So much so that Fang Jifan, who still kept a clear understanding of the external situation, couldn't help being a little confused, what were these people thinking.
