After Xia Nan explained the matter to Liu Quan, he glanced back at Shimazu Chiyo and dozens of samurai who were following behind, and couldn't help but have a headache, how to place these people?

It stands to reason that as long as these Japanese are truly subdued and their loyalty is guaranteed, then they are very good bodyguards. Although from a technical point of view, the martial arts of the Chinese are broad and profound, much stronger than the monotonous martial arts of Japan, but the biggest advantage of the Japanese samurai is that they are very loyal to the master, and it is unambiguous to block the sword for the master at the time of crisis, which is something that the martial arts people of the Ming Kingdom can't catch up with - although there are many martial arts people in history who "learn the art of literature and martial arts, and the goods are with the emperor's family", but in the final analysis, it is for their own glory and wealth,www.biquge.info How could he not hesitate to block the knife for the lord?

But how do you get these people to truly surrender to themselves? Xia Nan couldn't think of a good way for a long time, so he gave up for the time being, and waited for time to find Murong Longcheng to ask, only he knew the best about Japanese customs and customs among his subordinates. He boarded the sedan chair that had been prepared long ago and set off in the direction of South Park. Chiyo Shimazu and her samurai followed with the guards and soldiers.

Xia Nan ordered the sedan chair driver to be parallel to Lin Weiye's sedan chair, opened the curtain and said to Lin Weiye: "Lao Lin, the transportation to and from the city at this wharf still needs to be done, not to mention anything else, it is a trouble to transport the goods and materials from the sea back to the city, after all, the distance is not close, and it is ten miles away!" Besides, I personally reject the sedan chair, a decadent thing that represents the enslavement of the working people by the feudal exploiting class, and the speed is ridiculously slow -- can we get a dual-purpose public transportation for both people and business? ”

Lin Weiye thought for a while and replied: "It's a pity that there is no steam engine, otherwise you can get a light rail out...... Why don't we get a railroad? But you'll have to get me horses, or it's just paper. ”

"Railroad?" Xia Nan was curious, "Is it taken literally, that is, the kind of horse-drawn cart that travels on the track?" ”

"That's right, it's taken literally. Our current main streets are cement hardened pavement, there are no big trucks in this era, and there will be no overloading, and the smoothness of the road surface can be guaranteed, so the rails are embedded in the cement to make a horse-drawn carriage similar to a train car, which can be pulled by horses, and you can solve the problem of public transportation you said. ”

"Sounds good!" Summer south came in the interest. This kind of railcar should be the same principle as the tram in the movie, but one uses animal power and the other uses electricity, "But Hainan doesn't produce horses, where can we get horses?" ”

Lin Weiye spread his hands, "This is the boss's business, I only care about technology." After saying that, he lowered the curtain.

"When will employees be able to treat their bosses like this, and do they want to do it?" Xia Nan complained to the sedan chair opposite, and then called Yang Youji, "You are from Guangxi, and you have been in Hainan for so long, you should know about the affairs of the two Guangxi areas - if we want to get horses, where can we get them?" ”

Yang Youji thought for a moment and replied, "General, it depends on what you bring the horse for." If you are forming cavalry, you can go to the north to buy Mongolian horses; If the general chooses his own mount, he can send someone to the Western Regions to purchase Dawan horses, which are called 'sweat and blood horses' among the people, and if he is a freight carrier, he can choose the nearest Yunnan horse......"

"Dian Ma?" Xia Nan frowned and said, "Is it a bantam horse from Yunnan?" Sounds frustrating......"

"General Mingjian: Although the Yunnan horse is shorter than the Mongolian horse, and the sprint is not as good as the Mongolian horse, its biggest advantage is that it has good endurance. The Ancient Tea Horse Road in Yunnan is the way out of these Yunnan horses. ”

"So? Then go back and let Liu Quan send someone to Yunnan to sell some Yunnan horses and come back to try. "Anyway, a railroad doesn't need speed, it just needs stamina, and a bantam is a bantam, it's better than a donkey.

While speaking, he had already arrived at General Street, and Nanyuan was almost there, and from a distance, the people from both the military and civilian sides who stayed at home were waiting at the gate of Nanyuan under the leadership of Sun Yuanhua. Xia Nan doesn't like to be too ostentatious, and since he came back from Shandong, he told everyone not to go to the dock to greet him when he returned from going to sea in the future. However, it is a tradition of officialdom to welcome and send off in China, how can it be possible to change this inherent thinking with a word, so it was changed from the dock to the South Park, which not only obeyed the general's orders, but also ensured sufficient courtesy. Xia Nan knows this, but he doesn't bother to correct their approach, sometimes being too maverick will make his subordinates confused, since they are going to meet them in South Park, let them go, it's better to be low-key and subtle than putting up lights at the dock.

Xia Nan got off the sedan chair without waiting for the gate of Nanyuan and walked over to Sun Yuanhua and the others. These "executives" are waiting for themselves, it's not good to swagger away from them and go straight to the house, some things on the scene still have to go through the process, and then get off the sedan chair to meet them, which can also bring the friendship between them and their subordinates.

Sun Yuanhua and the others got off the sedan chair when they saw that the general was actually far away, and hurriedly greeted him. I'm here to greet the general, but I can't let the general catch up, that would be too rude.

Yang Youji and the others didn't expect the general to say that they would get off the sedan chair and get off the sedan chair, and they would go forward when they got down, and they were pulled away a little distance for a while, and it became that Xia Nan was walking alone, and a large group of people followed behind. However, thinking that they had arrived at the gate of South Park, there should be no surprises, so Yang Youji and the others slowly followed behind, and did not follow in time to protect the surroundings. However, Shimazu Chiyo followed silently, only a meter away from Summer South.

Just when Xia Nan and Sun Yuanhua and the others were only twenty steps away, two beggar-looking people on the side of the street suddenly jumped up, brandished daggers, and pounced on Xia Nan, one of them shouted: "Traitor, suffer death!" ”

Xia Nan didn't expect that there would be people stabbing in front of his house, so he was not mentally prepared at all. However, after experiencing a professional assassination incident, his reaction was much faster, and before he could figure out what was going on, his body made a backward dodge action.

Everyone was some distance away from Xia Nan, and they couldn't help but sweat when they saw someone assassinating him, but they couldn't resist him.

At this time, Shimazu Chiyo "rubbed" a few quick steps to catch up, did not even draw the knife, flashed into the arms of one of the assassins, turned his back to this man, relied on the momentum of his advance, snatched the dagger in his hand at a speed that was difficult to see with the naked eye, and stabbed it back, the assassin rushed forward under the effect of inertia, just sent the throat up, and had a close contact with the dagger - the dagger was deeply inserted into the throat. This set of coherent movements is exactly the "no knife taken" demonstrated by Shimazu Chiyo.
