Yang Yingqi and Yu Yunwen chatted for more than half an hour, and they got along very well, until late at night, when a subordinate rang the bell and came in to persuade: "Uncle, it's late, don't delay your rest." But it was Zhao Ju'er who explained that she wanted to keep an eye on Yang Yingqi's work and rest.

Yang Yingqi smiled slightly, and said to Yu Yunwen: "That's all for today, you go down to rest first, come to the dock tomorrow, and I'll take you to see the new ship!" ”

On the second day, on the military dock in Tanggu, when Yu Yunwen arrived, Yang Yingqi was inspecting a three-masted warship in the morning breeze, saw Yu Yunwen coming, beckoned him to get on the ship, patted the side of the ship and said, "What do you think of this ship?" ”

Yu Yunwen looked left and right twice, and said: "I'm not very good at boats, but looking at the style of these sails, it seems that they are not quite different from other ships." ”

Yang Yingqi said: "This is a new type of warship, I heard from the staff that this kind of ship is much more flexible and faster than the warship we are using now, and the operation is also a lot simpler." ”

Yu Yunwen pondered for a moment and asked, "In the future, the sailor will change this kind of warship?" ”

Yang Yingqi's eyes showed appreciation: "It's not all changed." Let's let the new water master try it first, and then talk about it if it really works. He also said: "The affairs of the South Seas have something to do with the ship, and since you have decided to go south, you have to pay attention to these things!" The teachings of the sages are the foundation of the world, but nothing can be done without moral articles. ”

Yu Yunwen replied solemnly: "Yes! ”

As he was talking, the subordinate came to report: "Chen Gongzi is here." Yang Yingqi was invited, and then said to Yu Yunwen: "Let's go, I'll introduce you to someone, he is a few years older than you, but he has already done several big things!" Maybe you've heard his name too. ”

Yu Yunwen asked who it was, and Yang Yingqi said: "Chen Xian's son, Chen Chu." ”

Yu Yunwen was surprised: "But the big businessman who provided military weapons to the rebels after Jingkang? ”

Yang Yingqi said with a smile: "It's him." ”

Yu Yunwen sighed: "It's him, where would I have never heard of it!" Now the two rivers don't know how many rebels are grateful to him. ”

Yang Yingqi smiled: "Thank him for what!" He is also an official and businessman of our Han Department, and those things are all public supplies. However, he has the ability to transfer these materials to various parts of the two rivers, which is a great ability! I'm going to let him do a big business this time, so you can listen to it, but don't say too much. ”

Yu Yunwen hurriedly said: "Yes." ”

Yang Yingqi led Yu Yunwen into the largest house in the wharf, which was where the Tanggu Port Command Center was located, some people were carrying some things in and out, and when they arrived at the innermost room, Chen Chu was already waiting there, Yang Yingqi said: "It's early." ”

Chen Chu smiled and said, "The Seventh General is called, dare not come early!" ”

Yang Yingqi laughed, and first introduced Chen Chu and Yu Yunwen, Chen Chu exclaimed: "Brother Yunwen is not a prodigy in Shu?" The son of Yu Renshou, a famous minister in Hedong? ”

It turned out that Yu Yunwen recited the "Nine Classics" at the age of six, and he could belong to the text at the age of seven, so he had the name of a prodigy. But Chen Chu praised him in person, Yu Yunwen wanted to be humble, both of them were important ministers of the Han court, and they were both smart and beautiful figures, so they were engaged in front of Yang Yingqi immediately.

Yang Yingqi was busy, but he didn't hesitate to spend time with these young people, but Yu and Chen were both interested, and although they intended to talk to each other deeply, they both stopped in moderation and did not talk endlessly. Yang Yingqi saw them like this, and secretly praised them for being smart, so he ordered someone to bring a large box, and there was a staff member next to him who was watching all the way, as if this box was very unusual.

Yang Yingqi said to Chen Chu: "I'll show you a treasure." With that, he sent all the attendants away, leaving only the staff and Chen Chu and Yu Yunwen. The staff closed the door, and then took out a bunch of keys and opened the first lock on the box—which had two locks, one opened, and one remaining. Yang Yingqi took out a key from his body and gave it to Chen Chu and said, "You go and open it." ”

When Chen Chu saw this kind of formation, he knew that this box was not trivial, and carefully opened the box, only to find that it contained a huge album.

Yang Yingqi said: "Spread it out." ”

Chen Chu and Yang Yingqi's staff helped move the album out, and Yu Yunwen stood behind Yang Yingqi and did not interfere. The atlas will be spread out, it is six zhang long, four zhang and five feet wide, fortunately this room is big enough, if it is an ordinary room, I am afraid that this drawing will not be able to fit.

After the drawings were laid, Yu Yunwen thought, "I think I've seen this one somewhere...... Yes! Isn't that what hung on the wall last night? ”

Chen Chu swept his eyes twice and exclaimed, "This ...... It's a new city! And it's a big city, a big capital! ”

Yang Yingqi smiled and said, "Not bad! He glanced at Chen Chu and said, "Did your father tell you about Xindu?" ”

Yu Yunwen listened to it with a pang in his heart: "Xindu? ”

Over there, Chen Chu muttered: "My father once said that the seven generals seem to be interested in setting the new capital in Yanjing, but I don't know ......."

"Not intentionally, but decidedly!" Yang Yingqi said: "Big brother, he also means this. ”

Chen Chu exclaimed: "Then this picture ......"

"This is the plan of Xindu!" Yang Yingqi said: "This is ordered by me, Guan Ning Academy, Penglai Academy, Liaokou Military Academy, more than a dozen scholars, dozens of high-achieving students, with the cooperation of the military and officials in various places, and even many Mizi were used to study the terrain around Yanjing, and it took five years of hard work to make this sketch." However, most of the people who made it have never seen the whole picture of this picture, except for the director of this picture, the writer of the whole picture and other producers, as far as Zhenghui, Yang Pu, Zhang Hao and the two staff members who are responsible for taking care of the original and copy of this picture have seen it, speaking of which, you two are the seventh and eighth people who have seen the whole picture of this picture. Hey! Even the eldest brother has never seen it because of chance! ”

Yu Yunwen and Chen Chu were terrified, and Chen Chu said, "This ...... It's a shame for Chen Chu. ”

Yang Yingqi smiled and said, "It's okay." He added: "When Yanjing is defeated, let's build a great capital according to this map!" However, this time, I don't want to forcibly evict the people like the previous dynasties, but I want to leave a large part of the work to the merchants. ”

As soon as these words came out, the two young men were taken aback again. Chen Chu was shocked: "Leave it to the merchants, such a big business...... I don't know who to give it to? ”

"To whom?" Yang Yingqi asked rhetorically: "This capital, I'm afraid it will take thirty years before and after!" Do you think any merchant can nibble on this piece of meat? ”

Chen Chu sighed: "I can't bite it, no one can bite it." ”

Yang Yingqi said: "So in addition to appointing a director from the government, the business must also have a big alliance." Looking at Chen Chu, he said, "I came to you this time for this matter." But he didn't say what it was.

Chen Chu couldn't help but show surprise: "This position of director, Chen Chu doesn't dare to look forward to it, the seventh general is looking for me, could it be ...... What does it have to do with this upcoming merchant alliance? ”

"Not bad." Yang Yingqi's face was very kind, and he said: "You have done everything I have given you in the past few years. But you should also remember that I said: those are just small businesses, and if you run a small business, sooner or later I will hand over a big business to you. ”

Chen Chu was surprised: "But such a big business, I ...... I'm afraid I won't be able to take it either. ”

"I don't want you to take it." Yang Yingqi said: "I want you to help me find a suitable businessman to pick up!" As he spoke, he took out a list: "This list lists a total of 39 items, several of which I have already decided to let Zhao Lumin, Liu Jie, and Li Xianglong take over, but there are still 25 vacancies for projects, in addition to the general contractor and deputy general contractor, which need to be taken over by two big families, especially the general contractor, who must be fully responsible for the whole thing." ”

Chen Chu said in horror: "Could it be that the Seventh General intends to take the power and responsibility of selecting merchants...... Give it to Chen Chu? ”

"Not bad!" Yang Yingqi looked at Chen Chu, as if considering him: "Don't you dare to take over?" ”

Chen Chu groaned: "Such a major matter should have been handled by the Seventh General himself. ”

Yang Yingqi sighed: "Although I also want to do it myself, but now that our country is on the occasion of the founding of the country, there are several things that are bigger than this, where can I still think about it?" ”

"Since that's the case...... Chen Chu puffed up his chest and said, "Then Chen Chu is obliged!" ”

Yang Yingqi said happily: "Okay! Responsible! ”

Chen Chu asked again: "Chen Chu from the businessman's side went to investigate, as for the position of director......

"I haven't thought about the position of director yet." Yang Yingqi said: "And if you think about it, you have to get the consent of the eldest brother." For the time being, I'm leaning towards the third brother. ”

As soon as Chen Chu heard this, he knew that the nominal component of the position of director was far greater than the actual operation, because with Yang Kaiyuan's status, he might not be able to devote himself fully to this matter, and the power of supervision would still fall into the hands of the chief contractor, thinking of this, he couldn't help but tremble slightly, because he knew how much power he had in his hands! He glanced at the whole picture again, and sighed: "This capital city is probably better than the unbroken Bianjing!" This...... That's a lot of money! ”

Yang Yingqi said with a smile: "Of course, so with the atmosphere of the founding of the New Han Dynasty, I will also pre-empt the materials of the East China Sea and the South Sea, and I will also pre-empt a period of thirty years!" He sighed again and said, "I've been saving money for a long time, but I've only raised sixty percent." ”

Chen Chu said: "Since it is a 30-year project, after the founding of the country in the future, it can be added one after another." ”

"I've counted them all." Yang Yingqi said: "But even the cost of the first phase of construction is still owed." So it's up to you to raise the money. ”

Chen Chu was stunned for a moment, then understood, and said in his heart: "It was a big power before, but this time it is a big problem. After thinking about it, he said: "This business, as long as it is next, has great benefits, so the general contractor will always have some." If there are dozens of partially undertaken families, it may be enough. ”

Yang Yingqi said happily: "Not bad, not bad!" If you can tell this point, you can see that I am not wrong! He ordered someone to put away the large atlas, and took out a small box and said: "Inside this box is a thumbnail drawing, as well as the budget for various wages, you go back and ponder it, and you must experience it carefully." As long as you can do this well for the public with all your heart, you will be regained in the future! As he spoke, he handed over the small box to Chen Chu.

Chen Chumo rubbed the box and asked, "There is one thing, I have to take the liberty to ask the Seventh General." ”

Yang Yingqi said: "You say." ”

Chen Chu said: "People say: The wealth of the world is nothing more than the Lin family. Why didn't General Seven directly ask Lin Dangjia to do this? ”

Yang Yingqi scolded with a smile: "Nonsense! Can I leave this to her? What is it to avoid suspicion! You don't understand? ”

Chen Chu was stunned, and then smiled: "It's Chen Chu who is confused." ”

Yang Yingqi said again: "In fact, no matter who does the general contractor, in terms of money, she will always have to worry about it in the future, so even if I don't hand over the business to her, she can share the profits." ”

Chen Chulian claimed that it was, but Yang Yingqi saw that he was still hesitant and asked him what questions he had. Chen Chu said: "I don't know who else is not worthy of this heavy responsibility?" This is to ask Yang Yingqi if there is a pre-made "blacklist".

Yang Yingqi said angrily: "No." As long as you can do this well, anyone can do it! ”
