    Northern Province.

    Governor Wang Xizuo has been in office for more than a month.

    The Northern Province has gradually stabilized.

    On the other hand, rebellions outside the Northern Province continued one after another.

    France is fine with it, after all, the Kingdom of France is powerful, and the king¡¯s control is not trivial.

    But the German states next door are already in chaos.

    Various melees continued, fighting to the death.

    What the knights faced were no longer the so-called knights in the past, but farmers with various weapons.

    A group of bankrupt knights even joined the rebellion.

    There are also constant frictions between states.

    The nominal Holy Roman Emperor was beyond his reach.

    A large number of people fleeing the war fled to the Northern Province.

    Here, it seems like a paradise.

    Wang Xizuo even hired a group of Swiss mercenaries at extremely low prices.

    At the same time, a northern fleet was established.

    His envoy has already begun to make peace with France, expressing his willingness to spend some gold and silver to help the royal family solve some of its current minor troubles.

    The French royal family obviously does not want the chaos in the Northern Province to continue. After all, continued chaos is very likely to cause chaos in France's border provinces.

    Of course, before this, France had been under the rule of the Habsburg family from Spain, to the Northern Province, and then to the siege of the German states. This even led France to shake hands with the Ottomans for its own safety.  Despised by European countries.

    But now, a northern province separated from the Habsburg family is obviously not a bad choice for France.

    Of course, the most important point is that France itself is on a powder keg, and it is even less likely to take any excessive actions towards the outside world at this time. It is lucky to be able to survive this storm.

    "Compared to the chaos in other places, the stabilized Northern Province, although the market is still depressed, is gradually beginning to recover.

    Because the Dutch and Frisians have always been at the center of the struggle between great powers, they are not interested in politics and military affairs, but they have extremely high talents in business and agriculture.

    People still perform their duties and life becomes stable.

    The heavy debts also began to be sorted out by Governor Wang Xizuo, and a lot of them were gradually cleared.

    Wang Xizuo promulgated the Mortgage Act, which means to clear debts through mortgages. The price he gave for the mortgaged land was fairly reasonable.

    at the same time¡­¡­

    An express report was delivered to Wang Xizuo.

    Wang Xizuo pinched the bulletin and frowned.

    In many countries, many Jews began to leave their homes.

    On the one hand, during the tulip storm, nobles and farmers from various states borrowed money from everywhere in order to buy tulips, and most of the borrowers were Jews.

    Now, these creditors have obviously become a bunch of hateful guys.

    On the other hand, the Jewish beliefs are different from many others and are mostly regarded as alien by the locals.

    At most, it is not discriminated against, but now it has become hateful.

    Everywhere, people confiscated their property, evicted them, and some even committed horrific atrocities.

    "What a bunch of pitiful people." Wang Xizuo took the express and said to several staff members who were already following him: "They didn't do anything wrong, but they were treated like this. Convey my order."  , accept them, they should find an ideal place to settle down again and build a new home."

    After saying that, Wang Xizuo said with a smile in his eyes: "I heard that they always have property hidden on them at any time, right?"

    Everyone understands what it means.

    Protecting them will, to a certain extent, contribute to the stability of the Northern Province.

    Wang Xizuo then continued to work at his desk. He was writing a letter. This was a passionate letter, written to Wang Xizuo's master Fang Jifan. No, he should not be called Fang Jifan now, nor should he be called Qi Guogong, but should be called Fang Da.  Good people.

    He must report the situation here to Fang Dashanren and offer some possible help.

    Of course, it is best to establish trade between the Northern Province and the East.

    ¡°Evenhe also proposed the idea of ??establishing a Han mercenary army. It would be best if this mercenary army could be equipped with short muskets.

    ? ??In addition, he must report on his financial status.

    Wang Xizuo understands very well.

    I came here alone. I am neither a noble nor a victorious general.  The reason why we can gain a foothold now is that people need themselves temporarily.

    ¡°My foundation is too shallow. Once the Kingdom of Spain or France recovers, it will crush itself into powder like strangling an ant.

    In order to deal with this possible situation, he must hug Fang Dashanren's thigh.

    As for the large amount of wealth he purchased here, of course it does not belong to him.

    He knows this very well.

    It¡¯s not that he¡¯s not greedy.

    But he had been with Fang Dashanren and knew very well how Fang Dashanren treated his enemies.

    Including this tulip storm, he was also the main participant. Such miraculous techniques still make his scalp numb.

    So don¡¯t make the good person unhappy, you must faithfully play the role of your own slave.

    He recorded all properties, real estate, and all mortgaged properties.

    This is a long letter, and it is written in Chinese characters, so there is no need to worry about it being deciphered.

    Just when he was about to put pen to paper.

    A guard came in: "Your Majesty the Governor, a farmer wants to see you in person to pay tribute to the good person and you. His seventy acres of land are mortgaged with 1.5 gold coins. He is very grateful to the good person and you for your help.  "

    Seventy acres of land, before the Tulip Storm, was enough to be exchanged for seven or eight gold coins.

    But now, I can only get one point and five.

    not only.

    ¡°That¡¯s it, and I gained people¡¯s gratitude.

    Wang Xizuo held the quill in his hand, raised his head, and sighed: "Ah, that's it. This is what I should do, as a slave of a good person who does good deeds Forget it, please invite him in."

    A farmer wearing a worn-out hat came in tremblingly. His face looked particularly solemn, and he walked step by step to the portrait of the Governor's Mansion.

    This portrait was the work of a painter who spent a month on it.

    Inside is an oriental face, handsome, with a simple and honest smile, and there seems to be a heroic spirit between the eyebrows.

    The farmer took off his hat and muttered something.

    Then, he turned around and walked to Wang Xizuo. His eyes turned red and he bent down.

    Wang Xizuo stretched out his hand.

    The farmer kissed the back of Wang Xizuo¡¯s hand: ¡°Thank you, Mr. Fang Dashan, thank you, the Governor, thank you.¡±

    Wang Xizuo, like all nobles, only nodded reservedly.

    The farmer took a step back, bowed again, turned around, and left with awe and gratitude.

    Wang Xizuo has long been accustomed to such scenes.
