Chapter 128: Preparations for War (I)

Gao Shishi's worries seem to be a bit redundant at present, because after Cen Shaoxun made the idea of "hiding his name in a false name", only one day later, he moved to Fenzhou and lived in seclusion in a courtyard in Fenzhou. He set up a fishing rock by the Chengbi River here to recuperate.

As soon as Cen Shaoxun left, the Xu family naturally went with him, and after Cen Ling said goodbye to his brother, he began to clean up the interior.

Gao Pragmatic didn't care about his internal affairs, and still started the patrol work as he did in Siming Mansion before, and changed the verdict of several small cases to show that he was not here for fun, and it had nothing to do with the Huangma Rebellion.

As for whether the toasts believe it or not, he believed it himself anyway.

The civil strife in Sicheng Prefecture was very fierce that day, and the city was also in a mess, but in the last count, the property losses of the people were relatively heavy, and the losses of the wolf soldiers were not large.

The total casualties of each Tusi were more than 300 people, and the Huangma side killed more than 200 and nearly 300 people, and the rest were scattered everywhere.

After thinking about it pragmatically, he handed over the soldiers and horses of the four Cen clan's Tusi including Zhen'an and Tianzhou to Cen Ling, promised him a month's term, and asked him to be responsible for the rewards and pensions of these wolf soldiers during his command, and Cen Ling also agreed.

And Gao Pragmatic himself also has to raise money - in fact, it should be said that it is the allocation of reward money, because Cao Ke promised the reward, he must honor. Except for the results of the Gao family and the results of the battle under Cen Ling's command who do not need to give money for the time being, the rest of the Tusi wolf soldiers have more than two hundred heads on hand, all of which require money to redeem merit.

In addition, Gao Pragmatic doesn't like to let people work in vain, and with a wave of his hand, as long as all wolf soldiers have participated in the war and have not violated military discipline, they will be rewarded with one or two silver.

This news was announced in public, and once it was announced, it won a huge prestige for Gao Pragmatic, no matter which wolf soldier, when it comes to Gao Pragmatic, he has to give a thumbs up and praise: "Gao Zhitai is a heroic and kind person, and it is really happy to help him fight!" ”

And for the toast, Gao Pragmatic is also unambiguous, and each of them is allowed to have a set of Yu porcelain, or tea sets, cups, or vases, depending on how much they contribute.

This reward is not light, after all, "gold is priceless and priceless", this group of toasts with manpower and no financial resources, but few can afford to buy Jun porcelain, this little army to help, can actually exchange for a set of heirlooms, simply excited to sleep, if it is not for Gao Xun to give them Jun porcelain has to be transported from the place of origin, they are afraid that they will have to go back to collect the reward overnight.

Gao Pragmatic was also very satisfied, he was just a cheap mother's expectation, so he invested money in the recovery of the North Porcelain industry. I can't imagine that the name of Jun porcelain is really loud, even this kind of toast in the mountains knows that thing is amazing, when I hear that I want to appreciate Jun porcelain, all my eyes are green, like a group of hungry wolves, for fear that Gao pragmatic words don't count, and I will come to him to hang around when I have nothing to do all day long.

Gao Pragmatic therefore remembered one thing, it stands to reason that Guangxi seems to produce porcelain clay in later generations, why is there no porcelain industry worth mentioning now? Should I ask my mother, can I support a group of talents who know how to burn porcelain to set up a porcelain factory in Guangxi? It is not necessary to burn Jun porcelain here - in fact, it seems that the Jun porcelain fired out of the place of origin is almost something, and it may be that some trace elements in the raw materials are different.

However, it should still be feasible to burn some low-grade porcelain in Guangxi, and after the completion of Qinzhou Port, Guangxi's porcelain can also be exported to earn foreign exchange. Anyway, those Westerners are not very knowledgeable, and the mid-range porcelain sold to them is also sold at a high price.

After staying in Sicheng Prefecture for ten days, he sent the reward money down, and agreed with the Tusi to go to Nanning to receive the reward and hold a meeting a month later, and then went home.

Oh, it's not like he went home, he didn't go back to Guilin, but went along the right Jiangdong and returned to Nanning Mansion.

He wants to hold a meeting in Nanning to discuss the "great development of Guangxi."

The news of the imperial court's approval of the transfer of the Lianzhou Mansion to Guangxi has already arrived, and now Guangdong and Guangxi provinces are engaged in a handover. In fact, most people in Guangdong did not have any feelings about Lianzhou's transfer to Guangxi, only some officials related to it were unhappy about this, and they objected to Liu Yaozhi when they approved it, and Shen Shixing Shen Ge Lao vaguely helped him say a few words, but Guo Pu directly refuted it, and the emperor did not discuss it again.

Guo Pu made up his mind to retire next year, so this year's attitude has become more hardened than before, Shen Shixing understands this, naturally he doesn't want to do it against Guo Yuanfu, and he might as well wait for next year to be the second assistant.

In Lianzhou, there were actually three ports in later generations: Beihai Port, Qinzhou Port and Fangcheng Port.

In later generations, the three ports were very good, but at this time, the most convenient was definitely Qinzhou. Because Qinzhou is a river mouth port, the traffic is more convenient than the other two places.

In later generations, there were railways and highways, but there were no in these years, where is it convenient to take the mountain road by water? Don't you see that after Gao Shishi came to the south, he took a boat instead of riding a horse wherever there was a water post. For thousands of years, China has been a ship from the north to the south, which is naturally not unreasonable.

After arriving at the Nanning Procuratorate, good news began to come one after another, and now the "vanguard" of various industries he planned to build in Guangxi has arrived one after another.

Gao Jue felt that since he wanted to prepare to fight in an unfamiliar place like Guangxi, it was essential to be familiar with the environment and climate in advance, so he would rather wait for people and other equipment than equip people, and first pull the team to Guangxi to adapt and adapt.

However, they are still in Qinzhou, and they have not reached Nanning all the way - Gao Ming thinks that it is better to be fully armed when going to Nanning, otherwise a group of people will run over empty-handed, but they will not be robbed on the road, it will be too ugly.

Although Gao pragmatic thinks that it is unlikely that the 4,000 families will be robbed even if they are empty-handed, it is no problem for them to adapt to it in Qinzhou first, and it is always easier for them to adapt to the climate by the sea than in the mountains - at least there will be no miasma or anything like that on the seaside.

In addition, the port of Guangzhou, under the command of Gao Mengnan, also began to transport supplies to Gao Shishi, and the first batch of 80,000 stone grain has arrived at Qinzhou Port, but the newly established inland river transport fleet has not had time to transport all of them, but only about 30,000 stone has been transported to Nanning, and the rest has to be transported slowly.

This group of inland river fleets is said to be "newly built", in fact, it is better to say that they are temporarily employed, although the Jinghua brand is shown first, but there is no one in the fleet, and the ships are all their own.

Jinghua's own inland river shipping team in Liangguang is still stuck in a paper plan, and if the shipyard is not opened, it will not be able to expand on its own, as for buying ships...... One is that the ship is generally booked, and if you want to buy the finished product temporarily, it will be out of stock; Second, in order to develop the timber market in Guangxi, the shipyard in the high-level pragmatic planning is very large, but considering that there are many novices among them, he thinks it is a good idea to let them build some inland river ships to practice their hands.

In addition, some strategic reserve materials, some of which have now arrived at Qinzhou Port, but they are also facing the same trouble as grain, that is, Qinzhou Port is still too small and urgently needs to be expanded, otherwise there will be no place to put it at that time.
