Chapter 495 Receiving kindness as a sign of appreciation
After laughing, Mi Rui asked about the smuggling boat, and Li Zhi talked about it in detail.
Regarding the Dongying people and the God of War family, he didn't talk about it in detail, he just skimmed it over, and he still talked about it with ordinary people as little as possible, and they couldn't afford to participate.
As for the imperial court, it will not take action against a certain catch the wind, and Li Zhi also hopes that through his own private behavior, he will solve this matter in the dark, so as not to add unstable factors to the change of imperial power that is in turmoil.
It is possible to optionally reveal some things with Mirui, especially the next handover of port affairs, the placement of the foreign feudal gangs, and the transformation of the pirate ship, all of which must be realized through him.
Of course, Mi Rui had already known about this, including the deployment before tonight's operation.
Hearing the meaning of Li Zhi's words at this moment, he smiled and said:
"I personally suggest that the pirate ship should not be left in the port of Guangzhou for repairs, on the one hand, there are many people, and you can also find some clues based on the person who tracked the whereabouts of this ship. And at present, the most advanced places in Datang's shipbuilding industry are still in Yangzhou and Mingzhou, and although the overseas trade of Guangzhou Port is becoming stronger, it is still inferior in shipbuilding. ”
"Brother Yuanzhong, I also have this intention, but before that, I need to make some simple cover for that boat, and then I will not bring it back to Ezhou or Yangzhou, but Fuzhou!"
"Is it related to the establishment of the Municipal Envoy? Will you be a little pressed for time? ”
The expression on Mi Rui's face changed obviously, because he wanted Li Zhi to return to Chang'an City as soon as possible, and the suspected huge conspiracy was pressing on his heart, and the anxiety caused by this was no less than worrying about the future situation.
He knew very well that Li Zhi had special abilities that ordinary cultivators could not reach, and although he understood that this person was not suitable for getting involved, it would be a psychological comfort to him to have him follow up.
How could Li Zhi not understand the meaning of Mi Rui's words, he often deals with officialdom, and he has long been familiar with this ambiguous, obscure and implicit officialdom language art.
"Fuzhou is also a developed area of overseas transportation and trade, in some aspects than the Guangzhou port has a greater advantage, and Quanzhou is close at hand, the imperial court originally intended to buy the first city in Quanzhou, if the Fuzhou port is combined with it earlier, it will be another important starting point of the world's port trade."
His words were by no means untargeted, and the first purchase of the city in the history of the Tang Dynasty was sixty or seventy years later than this time.
In the near future, Quanzhou Port will be the largest and most prosperous trade port in China and one of the largest trading ports in the world.
As a prosperous international metropolis, it created many myths in China and the world during the Song and Yuan dynasties.
If he promotes the connection of overseas trade throughput between Fuzhou and Quanzhou ports, it will make the influence more and more significant, so that Guangzhou Port will benefit even more.
Seeing that Mi Rui's expression still seemed to be hidden, Li Zhi smiled and said:
"This is also another potential solution to the dilemma, both Chang'an and Luoyang are located in the inland semi-closed area, where the political situation is changing, tending to turbulent and calm, and is inseparable from economic development. With the foreign trade of the southeast coast in full swing, the degree of dependence on the national strength of the Tang Dynasty will become more and more obvious, and when more people in the DPRK and China turn their attention to this side, will they get twice the result with half the effort? ”
Mi Rui's face finally soothed a lot, "Text, you really have a lot more long-term worries than me!" When the national strength is prosperous, the border defense can be stabilized, and the government side becomes more and more clear; The country and the people are safe, and some people's tyrannical hearts will be relaxed, and they will turn around and wait for the opportunity to correct them, so that the results will be highlighted. ”
Li Zhi nodded, "Surround Wei to save Zhao, give up the near and seek the far, bypass the superficial phenomenon, solve the problem from the source, and achieve the magical effect of winning in one move." ”
"Another advantage, when you are here, away from the core of the event, it will give people the impression that you are bent on business building, and do something secretly, and no one will consider you first!"
The two looked at each other and immediately laughed.
The laughter was a little flat, Li Zhi further explained, "In Ezhou, it was learned that the shipbuilding technology of Fuzhou has attracted a large number of Yangzhou craftsmen to become more and more prosperous, among which the wood technology of nailing and tenon has long been overshadowed, and the olive sugar mud makes the hull sugar very dry, and the water is like lacquer, but it is the leading work of shipbuilding technology in Fuzhou and Quanzhou. Moreover, the rope tie board with olive sugar will be stronger and smoother. ”
Mi Rui raised his hand and waved, "You don't need to explain this to me, it's too professional to understand." Let's go, let's go ask for a cup of tea from Ma Ye, but I saw that the old man was very anxious, so he should have something else, right? ”
......
At noon the next day, the post station finally sent an urgent letter of 800 miles, on which was the edict of Gaozongqin:
The key to governing the country lies in literature and martial arts. Today, the literati are the first to be the head of the rhetoric rather than the economy, and the martial arts are the first to ride and shoot instead of the strategy, what is the benefit of the chaos! There is an old saying: 'People are impermanent, and politics is chaotic; There will be no strength or weakness, but there will be clumsiness. Therefore, the election will be based on wisdom and strategy, and courage will be the last. Today, the court employs people, such as the children of the generals and the families of the dead, they are all mediocre people, how can they be outside the office! Mi Yuanzhong, Li Zhengwen and his subordinates, etc., made special contributions because of their sincerity, and rewarded them for future awards. At present, the South China Sea is the most important, and the relevant port affairs are very close to the opening up. In addition, Lingnan, Fujian, and Yangzhou Fanke, it is advisable to observe the festival to make Mi Rui Mi Yuanzhong often question, and exempt the former local chief executive from the part-time position. Li Zhengwen, the envoy of the city, is in charge of foreign trade by sea, in charge of the water and land transshipment in the southeast, in charge of the transfer and cashier of the country's grain and goods, in charge of the financial endowment all the way, and is also the special envoy of Cao Yun!
A room of people discussed the content of the edict for a long time, and the more they studied it, the more deeply they felt about the assignment of the holy order.
Since then, the observation of the festival has made Mi Rui not only control the military power of Lingnan Province, but his power has penetrated into the local affairs and finances, and there are faint signs of transcending the power of the various festivals.
And Li Zhi is even more terrifying, not to mention the general manager of sea and foreign trade, three palms and one specific and detailed, as if he is already in charge of transportation affairs with Datang.
In particular, the Cao Yun envoy worked part-time, but the core tasks of the imperial court in transporting official rations to the imperial court by inland rivers and seaways, and transporting military rations to the military region, including the right to develop canals, manufacture ships, and levy official rations and military rations, were even three points heavier than those of the military department.
It is known that Li Zhi also has the appointment of the Shuo Fang Jie Du envoy, but after all, it is just a false position, and the three palms and one concurrently bless the power of the envoy of other cities, and his title is no different from the actual official position, which can be called the same distinguished status as the Jiuqing of the DPRK.
Jiuqing is a derivative name, and in the Tang Dynasty, there were other nine temples, but in fact, they were in charge of affairs similarly, but the specific titles were different.
There was another news at the post station, that is, a group of officials in charge of the DPRK and China who arrived at 10 o'clock tonight.
This part of the people includes the military department, the official department, the Dali Temple and other ministers, and will bring further measures under the guidance of the emperor in response to the re-establishment of the personnel of the Guangzhou Assassin's Mansion and the handling of Li Xiang's family.
Of course, it will also bring relevant rewards for Mi Rui, Li Zhi and others, and the redistribution of power and positions under their hands.
The aftermath from the imperial court will be unprecedented, so after some deliberation, even if the soldiers and horses from all walks of life enter a state of intense preparation,
At this time, Li Zhi didn't have much specific things to do, and soon in the afternoon, he led people to various docks.
His first concern was the capture of the ship, and the fact that it was able to cross the ocean ferry was a great fortune in itself, and now it has become the private property of Zhengqing Wenqitang.
The reason why he did not use the army and army in last night's operation was for this purpose, although many people knew that the interception and killing of the pirate ship was Li Zhi's private act, and before the official establishment of the city envoy, the pirate ship belonged to him personally, and no one had anything to say.
At this time, the ship was moved to the largest local shipyard, which is located in the Jingpingzhuang wharf, which belongs to the government-run industry, and has Li Zhi's special status, and is currently under emergency repair.
The so-called repair is nothing more than applying another layer of paint to the hull.
That ship is more like a super-large dragon boat, and has not yet adopted the advanced nailed and tenoned connection technology at that time, and this type of ship is not yet an excellent ship type suitable for ocean voyages, but Li Zhi's new ship in Ezhou City will be the kind of real ocean-going freighter.
Then there is his special steel plate, which will be modified in key positions in the future, which will also greatly improve the strength of the ship, and thus make the shipbuilding technology of the Tang Dynasty improve a lot in a very short time.
Rahman came as soon as he heard the news, and there was even the third-level master Nasser at the scene, who had stayed on the ship since last night, first, to stay in the secret inspection, and second, to supervise the progress of the repair.
"The dilapidated mast will be replaced within two days, and the first high-cost part mentioned by Mr. Li will also be equipped with an iron plate with a strong impact device, mainly because the deadline given by Mr. is too short, otherwise there will be a complete change, making it unrecognizable, and no one can see what it is!!"
Without taking a breath, Rahman busied himself with explanations.
Li Zhi has become more and more appreciative of this person, "It doesn't matter, the big changes will not be here, the newly built ship will not be launched for half a year before it can be launched, and it will take a long time to meet the requirements of the voyage, so this ship will be the ship used on the first voyage, and when the interior and exterior are renovated, I will come to you to check in early and make some decorations you like!" ”
A voyage at sea can be as long as several months, and it is not uncommon to be adrift for a year, and it is a major problem to have a comfortable place on board.
His concern obviously made Rahman feel deeply, "Thank you, sir, for being so thoughtful and comfortable working under you." ”
"Zhengqing Wenqitang products will be sold in Cairo in the future, and rice paper will also have related workshops established, which means that our products, especially the paper industry, have a very important transit in your country. In the future, most of the paper industry will be sent from the Persian Gulf to Europe, you can contact your family after you go, engage in this sea transportation of rice paper, the distance will be shortened by half, you can start your own or rely on the name of Zhengqing Wenqitang. ”
Li Zhi is taking care of his family, which is the first thing Rahman perceives.
And he is helping himself, returning to his hometown as a righteous and bright person, and has the ability to help his family.
Without waiting for the look of gratitude in Rahman's eyes to linger for long, Nasser hurriedly arrived, "Mr. Li, Goli of the White-robed Chamber of Commerce, and Gulitan of the Sonada Gang are here, and there are twenty or thirty people with them!" ”
The White Robe Chamber of Commerce and the Sonada Gang are all dock gangs that are mainly composed of people from the Western Regions.
The two of them in Nasser's mouth are their respective leaders, both of whom are cultivators, and their cultivation is in the master realm, that is, the king level in their mouths.
Li Zhi has already met these people, and there is a reason for the communication between them, in addition to the strong resistance at the beginning, and the active cooperation now.
