In the days that followed, the city of Lin'an was enveloped in all sorts of discussions, and the center of the conversation was naturally what they saw, the power of nature and the miracle of human beings themselves, perfectly like a premeditated demonstration, impressive, but not the only one. Romance debuts

According to the arrangement that had been planned for a long time, the sale of the shares of the Qiongzhou Sea Route Commerce that had been sold for several months was stopped on this day, and many people who had come from other places to get the news were stopped on the street where the household department was located, although they did not understand why the real money should be abandoned, the principals led by Xie Tang still faithfully carried out the original plan, because they valued credibility more than money.

Immediately began to load the ship overnight, it was impossible for the Haisi fleet to stay for too long, Ye Mengding didn't want to stay in Beijing for long, although the ship was there, it would take a lot of training to form combat effectiveness, and the sailor's trip back and forth to Qiongzhou was measured in months, and he was more anxious than Xie Tang and the others.

"Won't Shaobao go with the water army?"

On a wharf outside the city, Xie Tang was by Ye Mengding's side, he wanted to watch the gold and silver get on the ship with his own eyes, each boat had a number of people, and then he signed with the person in charge of escorting, and then did it again when he got there. There is no way, the huge wealth of more than 100 million yuan is unimaginable to most people, even if the procedures are cumbersome, as long as they can be reached safely, they should be.

The transport was handed over to the navy, and there was a problem of storage when they arrived, and a team of people from various prefectures would come with the ship, which was the result of many discussions. The number is too large, and it can't be trusted by anyone to take care of it, and each family has some people, restraining and supervising each other, plus it is originally an island, and it is difficult to escape if something really happens, but it is more reassuring than this Jingshi.

"The old man stays for one more day, and there are still some affairs to be sorted out with the princes, why don't you go to Qiongzhou?"

"Where can I go now, send a clansman over to watch, and when the port is officially opened over there, I can't say that I want to go on it."

What is the business that Ye Mengding said Xie Tang understands very well, it has been all about the skin these days, it is nothing more than that the imperial court wants to share a profit in this wealth, which is also the proper meaning, no matter what, to achieve the expected goal in the end, it is inseparable from the endorsement of the imperial court, otherwise who dares to invest real money in it.

It was not until the day before the shipment that it was finally determined, and 1 million taels was paid in advance as the income of the Qiongzhou City Shipping Company in the next year, and another 500,000 taels was paid as a protection fee. The two sides are in line with the principle of warmth, friendship, mutual benefit and reciprocity, but they are also very happy, Xie Tang's behavior is hung with a layer of official skin, and the court gets a windfall, as for how much this money to give to Ye Mengding, it is the matter he thought he was talking about.

"And who is it for this trip?"

didn't even go to Xie Tang, Ye Mengding was not only a little strange, this was a wealth far more than a country's income, could they be so relieved?

"Zhao Mengsong, the son of King Fu, is that person, when he was born, Shaobao also went to the house to eat."

Not far away, there was a sea boat by the trestle, and the group was saying goodbye, and a young man waving his hand on the bow looked like he was in his twenties, which was comparable to his Erlang Ye. It's been too long, Ye Mengding still remembers anything about eating and drinking, but he knows that this son is not the prince of King Fu, but he can be regarded as a weighty figure.

"It's hard for him."

A prince of the palace with fine clothes and jade food, suddenly wants to take such a far sea boat, Ye Mengding secretly sweats for him, but he is afraid that when he arrives in Qiongzhou, it will be very good to be carried down, he is only two days away from here to Qingyuan Mansion, and he never takes this kind of sea boat, he would rather take the canal.

"I heard that Shaobao entered Beijing this time, and he has no inside information, but now it doesn't look like it, is the rumor untrue?"

Xie Tang suddenly mentioned this matter in a dignified manner, which made Ye Mengding puzzled, he couldn't figure out whether Xie Tang was curious himself, or if someone asked him to do it later. Of course, with his status, he can ask for him, there will be no more than three people in the Jingshi, he groaned like this, Xie Tang didn't understand, and hurriedly followed behind to explain.

"Don't worry about it, this matter is related to the position of Hai Si, since we have done this business, we really can't ignore it, they don't know the bottom in their hearts, and they are afraid that something will happen, so they let someone come to find out."

Xie Tang's meaning is very clear, this business can't be separated from the navy, Ye Mengding's position is very critical, if he enters the political affairs hall, even if he becomes a major military affairs in Pingzhang, in the minds of those who are in charge, it is not as useful as a sea division boss, or how to say "the county official is not as good as the current management", so asking is to ask him the truth, in the end, whether to enter the court as the prime minister or continue to be in charge of the sea division.

"You kid." Ye Mengding shook his head helplessly, he didn't want to explain it too clearly, but Xie Tang and the people behind him couldn't afford to offend, and besides, he also had a share of that business in his own house, so he had to give them a reassurance pill first.

"The old man has long been away from the court, how can he come to stir up this troubled water again, whether it is the saint, or you people, the old man is all in one sentence, 'The back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, and a new generation of people replace the old people', I am old, and now this court is your young people."

Xie Tang, who was in his fifties, was called a young man by him, but he didn't have any displeased expression, and he couldn't help but nod when he heard the words. No matter what aspect it is, the old man in front of him is his senior, if he didn't have an aunt who was in charge of the court, how could he be qualified to stand here and say so many things.

Ye Mengding said this kind of thing for the last time, and every qiē here made him tired of it, and it seemed that it was exactly the same as when he was in office, and the court was constantly intriguing, and it was so difficult to do something. It's better to rely on this old qualification to stay far away, at least even if he does something, he will not be as jealous as Li Tingzhi, the age is there, who will care about the same person who is about to enter the ground?

The wharf under the city was full of large and small boats, and from here to the street where the household was located, the ox carts covered with green cloth were constantly being pulled, and the heavy load weighed down the bluestone slabs "rattling", and the onlookers pointed and talked about it, and many well-informed people had guessed the general situation, but they did not know what the meaning of doing so was.

Lin'an City is too big, far from what Liu Yu said in his mouth, what does this dead thing get? If possible, Ye Mengding would like to move away from those palaces, houses, streets, and markets, and it is best not to leave a single brick or tile to the Tartars, that is the essence of the Great Song Dynasty, but unfortunately this is the only thing he can do, I hope everything is like what the kid said.

"When we lost Bianliang, we rebuilt Lin'an, and now we can do without Lin'an and build a capital ten times more prosperous. The most terrible thing for people is not to lose wealth, but to lose their dignity, otherwise even if it is a wild place like Qionghai, it will become a bright pearl, do you believe it? ”

Few people will say these impassioned words in his ear, because he has long passed the age of boiling blood, but from a young man like Liu Yu, Ye Mengding saw some long-lost things, once upon a time he had something on his body that was worn away by the boundless Huan Hai, those things were shining like gold in front of him, and that was the most valuable wealth of the Great Song Dynasty.

He doesn't know if he will have the opportunity to see the pearl in his son-in-law's mouth in this life, he doesn't want to leave as soon as he gets old, Qingyuan Mansion may be his end, that is the back road of Jingshi. If the shape really comes to the worst step, this huge city will not be able to hold, Ye Mengding is more sober than anyone else, not only the lack of warriors, but more importantly, the lack of will, at that time he will play an incomparable role.

"Shengdao, this place is handed over to you, the old man still has some things to do, so he will take the first step."

After speaking, he patted the young man in his fifties beside him, turned around and walked towards his carriage, the latter obviously had a kind of joy from the heart, I don't know if it was because Ye Mengding gave him an exact answer, or because he saw that the gold and silver that he was worried about day and night were finally sent away, he didn't come back to his senses for a while, and when he reacted, the person had already gotten in the car.

"With Quan, such a measure, Ye Shaobao will definitely not be able to get by, the old man thinks that you will discuss with the cardinal government again and come up with a more appropriate way."

"Pingzhang, in total, there is no important use for that money, this is already an unthinkable way, why don't you discuss it with the prime minister, and this reward will not come out of the military expenses?"

Chen Yizhong had a bitter look on his face, and Liumengyan was in charge of the branch and the household department, so he only gave him 400,000 yuan, what is this money enough for? There is still a war going on in the south, the border passes are in an emergency, and if you want to increase the troops, you have to pay for it, the Great Song Dynasty is a recruitment system, and the cost of one person is five times that of the Yuan people, not to mention that there is also the imperial camp rectification that he has in mind, and he can't wait to invest every penny into it, so he is willing to take out more.

Liu Mengyan's appearance is uglier than him, he thinks that after the peace agreement is reached, the military expenditure should not be increased, but it should be reduced, he has taken more, but the expenditure is greater, the national finances are in deficit everywhere, the taxes have not been collected, and even the officials' salaries are not enough, how many people's livelihoods are concerned, how dare he offend?

Wang Entropy saw that he didn't say a word, where did he not know the difficulties, there were many monks and few porridges, and they were struggling to maintain it, it was okay without these, but once there was, it was a dispute. Chen Yizhong is telling the truth, the emptiness of the Beijing division is not a long-term solution, it is imperative to recruit troops, if you don't take out real money, who will stab you in the face for no reason?

"In this case, the two of you each take a step back, one of you has an extra 50,000, and you have enough 200,000 yuan, and you have an explanation for the top and bottom, so you can send them away, don't make trouble in this Jingshi, and I will not redeem it when I die."

As a last resort, Wang Entropy can only take this kind of method and dilute the mud, not to mention anything else, now tens of thousands of officers and soldiers of the navy and thousands of ships are under the city of Lin'an, and if something happens, they can't even quell the rebellion, because they are a navy. Everyone understands this truth, Chen and Liu have no better way to accept it, this is the role that Wang Entropy can play.

"All the ministers are here, the old man has not been here for a long time, and he has almost lost his way, causing you to wait for a long time, forgive your sins."

Before the person arrived, a deep voice reached the room, and the three of them glanced at each other, stood up in unison, and when they greeted the door, their faces had already changed to a warm smile.
