But then, what King Zhang Guoan didn't expect was that the Kong family played a stubborn kung fu, and they sent the oldest old guy to jump and shout outside the imperial office building, claiming that they had to see the king.

King Zhang Guoan really didn't want to see him, but although he hadn't read the Analects in its entirety and couldn't memorize the three quotations, he knew common sense, he was a citizen of the empire, and he was an old man, so he always found excuses to ignore it, which was not a good way after all.

He hurriedly asked people to invite Wen Tianxiang to come, the ancients dealt with the ancients, and the literati dealt with the literati.

It's really okay to bring in Vice Minister Hu Zhenbei for help, even if they may be chickens and ducks.

King Zhang Guoan told Wen Tianxiang his bottom line: he doesn't care about the Holy Fathers at all, he loves whoever he wants!

Wen Tianxiang absolutely despised Beikong, because he knew that those people had originally asked the Tatar leaders to be canonized, and there was even a guy named Kong Youyuan who had joined the Tatar army with village soldiers.

A bunch of guys who see the wind and rudder!

King Zhang Guoan was still angry with him, he spread his hands and said:

"I really haven't read any classics, and I don't understand what the righteousness you talk about all day long------- but!

I will never collude with the powerful, I will never collude with robbers!

I will not do evil, and I will never do evil!

I can be humble as a piece of dust, and I will never be twisted like a maggot in pursuit of wealth!

Even if I can't kill the evil, I can choose to run away or remain silent------ waiting for something stronger to appear.

What is righteousness? Is it just to dedicate yourself to your Great Song Motherland? ”

Wen Tianxiang didn't have to deal with him, turned around and went out to deal with the old man of the Kong family.

King Zhang Guoan was very embarrassed and said to his secretary: "People who understand righteousness don't close their offices when they leave people's homes------

His secretary did not respond, as if he was thinking about the true meaning of the great traditional culture.

King Zhang Guoan had to say to himself: "There was once a writer, his surname was Lu, he said that every classic book of this nation only has two words written 'eating people', his descendants will praise him for a while, and scold him for a while, it all depends on what the masters need------- I want to say, every classic book is only written with two words 'common sense', it's as simple as that------ the key is not to do it." ”

He stood up and walked to the window.

Not far from the window, the construction site is covered with the largest ten-story building in human history: the Empire State Building.

More than a dozen pot camel crane towers are lifting large pieces of marble, several concrete mixers are constantly mixing, and hundreds of two-wheeled trolleys are shuttling back and forth.

It's a lively labor scene.

The construction period is set for three years, and the steam engine version of the elevator will be launched at that time.

All the fees added together are expected to reach 18 million coins!

Later, what King Zhang Guoan didn't expect was that Wen Tianxiang made things bigger------ people who understand righteousness are good at turning small things into big things, which is a lesson.

Wen Tianxiang did not send the old man of the Kong family casually, but asked for the ancestral house and ancestral field from the northern Kong on behalf of the southern Kong.

It was very simple, the Yan Shenggong canonized by Dajin and Dayuan is gone, and the canonized by Da Song is still there!

The old man of the Kong family jumped angry on the spot, and the two began to scold each other without dirty words.

In the end, the old man of the Kong family fainted in anger------ was quickly sent to the hospital by the patrol police, Wen Tianxiang paid for the medicine, and then turned around and left Liuqiu Island, without even asking for leave.

He went directly to the Nankong family, and he had to ask them to get their ancestral land back!

Wen Tianxiang persuaded the Yan Sheng Gong of the Southern Confucius family to apply for a citizenship certificate of the Great Shang Federal Empire, and explained that it was not considered a foreign country, because the Great Shang Federal Empire recognized multiple nationalities, and you were still a citizen of the Great Song Dynasty at the same time!

If you have citizenship, you will fight a lawsuit with them and find the best lawyer!

Where does King Zhang Guoan have the heart to care about their cats and dogs, go to the court in a lawsuit, and don't bother him.

This night, he and Wang Defa's family summoned Xiao Er and Wang Zheng.

In the spring of 1281, the Empire of the Great Shang Confederation was about to set sail on a new mission.

King Zhang Guoan took out the most comprehensive map of the world at the moment, and also took out the latest globe.

He said to Xiao Er:

"You are to lead a fleet of boats across the Eight Rivers to the port of Marbury in Tianzhu, where you will take with you a thousand local peasants, rest assured, they have all undergone simple training, and there are interpreters.

Then it's a direct route to Madagascar, and then you go to the area where I have the South African word on it, and leave 300 people and the relevant management there, and a 51-man combat platoon of marines, and let them run it in the dog-gnawing way, and then I'll arrange for the follow-up fleet to go there again.

You take the fleet around the Cape of Good Hope in South Africa to the Atlantic side, where the coast is the ocean current that is going north, and you just follow the current along the coastline, where you can figure out the hydrology.

There is no time requirement, and you can always rely on the West African coast to replenish fresh water or other necessities------ where the black people are in the world, but far less than the black East African civilization.

You have to go all the way north to this great island, which I have identified as the Canary Islands.

It's borderless now, and I want you to plant the flag of the Empire on every island there!

The main island there is a warm weather with little change in the seasons, and the fertile volcanic soil and mild climate are ideal for cultivation------ but the rainfall is a little less, so you can build a simple reservoir and drill more wells.

Grain, you can grow corn, wheat and sweet potatoes, potatoes and soybeans.

Fruits can also be planted, such as bananas, citrus, coffee, dates, sugar cane and tobacco, and the short-term requirement is to build a supply land for 100,000 people, and the long-term vision is planned according to the city of 500,000 people------"

Xiao Er's face turned red with excitement, he looked at the mainland opposite the Canary Islands and said:

"In terms of proportion, those continents are not far apart!"

Wang Defa interjected:

"That's not your immediate goal, you need to go to the Mediterranean Sea and complete the mission of Alexandria first------ and then you can go north to the island of England, France, the Holy Roman Empire, and trade with them there.

You have to be safe at sea, there are many pirates there. ”

Xiao Er smiled, he had never been afraid of pirates.

He asked, "I heard that there is a white man's world?" Do they still use galleys? ”

"Mostly galleys, but also some large carats without rudders, which are only a third of our speed.

Hopefully, you'll be there for three to five years, and I'll arrange for a follow-up to help you, but you'll need to work there until you can find someone to replace you. ”

Xiao Er laughed and said, "Don't worry, I will build it into a paradise like Liuqiu Island, and it will definitely be better than gnawing dogs!" ”

"Okay, Xiao Er, you are now the Governor of Canaria, I will send you the relevant seals and documents!"

"The Empire is with us!"

Xiao Er is really excited, the success of gnawing the dog has always made him envious, and he finally has a chance!

King Zhang Guoan handed him a booklet, which contained all the equipment of the fleet, and when it had developed to this situation, he would not let his houseboy suffer on the voyage.

King Zhang Guoan said: "Take a look first, you can still put forward any requests, after all, you are the most experienced person in the voyage among your companions." ”
