The money and food sent by the Chen family were sufficient, because the funds were abundant and there were enough skilled craftsmen to assist, so the ship was built quickly.

The most difficult part of shipbuilding is precisely the material of the ship, if there is no preparation in advance, it is impossible to build a usable fleet without seven or eight years of hard work.

I have to say that Emperor Yang of Sui is simply Lou Shide's great benefactor!

On the other side, they are building ships, and this side is recruiting local strong men to enter the water village.

Lou Shide was determined to train these strong men himself.

Nowadays, there are not many ships available for drilling, but only a few, so they simply let the strong men take turns to go to sea, and the rest of the time, they practice in the water village.

Most of these strong men are relatives of the crew who died at the beginning.

On the one hand, they are given priority to recruiting, on the other hand, they are well paid, they come to the camp, and they eat and drink all day long, the Chen family is not good at anything else, but the Chen family's rice is very nourishing.

But all those who were recruited, more or less with hatred in their hearts, originally wanted to endure hardships for a while and avenge their relatives, but where did they think that after entering the camp, pork and mutton were enough, except for the hard work, everything else was there.

Originally, Shuizhai wanted to equip firearms.

It's just that this heavy and huge cannon can't get on the ship, at least the current technology can't do it, the recoil is too great, I'm afraid that before the opponent's ship is smashed, I will be riddled with holes, and even the musket is not convenient!

On the one hand, it is turbulent at sea, once the musket is fired, it is almost inaccurate, on the other hand, it is also because the gunpowder is easy to get wet, if you go to sea for a few days, you can barely support it, but if you go to sea for three or five months, anything moisture-proof has no effect.

Therefore, it can only be based on cold weapons, and everyone has enough swords, guns, swords, halberds, and crossbows, equipped with bows and crossbows, especially repeating crossbows, and a thousand pairs were transported directly from Chang'an.

After Lou Shide received a heavy lesson, all he thought about was the Goguryeo ships, thinking about their advantages and weaknesses, and in more than three months, the first batch of ships had been formed, and thousands of craftsmen were busy day and night, and the construction period was very fast.

Without waiting for Lou Shide to board the new ship, on the other side, his brother Lou Shixian hurriedly came and said, "Brother, please assassinate Shi." ”

Thorn History......

As soon as he mentioned this assassination history, Lou Shide had a complicated mind, he was the assassin in the first place, if it wasn't for the crime, how could he be demoted?

And this new assassin was publicly pushed out by hundreds of officials in the DPRK, called Cui Yan!

Cui Yan is from the Cui clan of Qinghe, his father and ancestors have been high-ranking officials, and after entering the dynasty, the official reputation is naturally very good!

Of course...... This official voice ...... It is quite watery, in this era of family history, the Cui family and the vast majority of the family have in-laws, and they are the most famous families in the world, and their protégés are all over the world, whether it is the central government or the local states and counties, who dares to say that the official reputation of the Cui family is not good?

Like all the children of the great family, after Cui Yan became an official, he has been helped by his colleagues and peers, and has served as the imperial history, and then put it as the Jizhou assassin history.

The tiger of the Cui family, no, after the tiger minister arrived in Yangzhou, quickly won the support of the Jiangnan clan and officials, and many new policies also slowly began to be implemented slowly, he rectified the market, and at the same time arrested a lot of profiteers, and immediately got a good reputation.

As for Yangzhou's new policy, it is natural that people will die because of Lou Shide's demotion to the government, after all, ...... The New Deal is a thing that dares to be the first in the world, and only people like Lou Shide, who have no way out and rush forward with their heads stuffy, can be effective!

But if it is someone else, even if you have the heart, you are powerless!

What's more, people don't have this heart at all?

This assassin naturally didn't have a good eye for Lou Shide, and he looked like he was ignoring it, but he didn't know why he was suddenly summoned today.

Lou Shide is the captain of Yangzhou Waterway, theoretically speaking, he is a subordinate official of the Assassin History, so he naturally can't be lazy, so he hurried to the Assassin's Mansion.

It's just that when he arrived, Cui Tingshi was meeting a few important guests, and he was an official, so he had to wait honestly under the corridor.

This is an hour and a half, standing under the corridor and unable to move, standing so stiffly, even a strong person like Lou Shide can't stand it.

Finally, seeing that Cui Yan and a few well-dressed people came out talking and laughing, this Cui Yan sent these people to the middle gate, and then these people took their own cars and left. Cui Yan returned to the inner hall, and the messenger invited Lou Shide in.

Lou Shide saw Cui Yan and hurriedly saluted: "The lower official has seen Cui Yuanjun. ”

Cui Yan only glanced at Lou Shide, took a sip of tea slowly, and then said, "I heard that you are recruiting strong men everywhere?" ”

"Yes." Lou Shide said: "Xiaguan is in a hurry to build a ship......"

Cui Yan said lightly: "This is not good, your salary is too high, and now someone has come to complain, saying that many farmers and tenants have heard that the shipbuilding salary is huge, so they have left their farm work and run to the dock!" Captain Lou is in charge of the water village, but this official needs to manage the military and political affairs of a place. It stands to reason that you are also a person who has done assassination, don't you know that everything must be considered in the long run? In doing so, are you not fishing with all your might? ”

Lou Shide heard Cui Yan's embarrassment, but he couldn't make a sound, he knew the truth of crushing people to death at the level of officials, not to mention that he was still a minister who was guilty now!

So he hurriedly said: "What Cui Envoy Jun taught is that it is only the responsibility of the lower officials to protect the sea realm and attack Goguryeo......"

"Don't use this to pressure the old man." Cui Yan pulled his face and continued: "You are the waterway captain of Yangzhou, the captain of the Yangzhou waterway, and you dare to claim that you want to fight with the fleets of Goguryeo and Baekje? These words are just a pretext for someone in the DPRK and China to protect you, do you really think that with a few ships you have built, you can call for wind and rain on this sea? ”

Lou Shide couldn't help but say: "This is Your Majesty'......"

Cui Yan interrupted: "Of course, this is Your Majesty's will, but Your Majesty doesn't know much about the situation in Yangzhou, but Chen Juma is talking on the side." Chen Juma said these words, it is nothing more than because you are his former official, why, do you still want to use Chen Juma to suppress the official? ”

Lou Shide was uncomfortable, and after a long time, he was unwilling to say: "Don't dare." ”

"I think you dare, I heard that your brother said everywhere that after the arrival of this official, he had no intention of making a new deal in Yangzhou, what does this mean?"

Lou Shide's face was miserable: "This ...... I will definitely teach my foolish brother a lesson when I go back. ”

"Hmph." Cui Yan glanced at Lou Shide with disdain, and then said: "If you are safe and secure, in this life, if no one mentions your guilt, you can still be your captain." But if you are restless, or even have any delusions, the official will tell you the truth, no one can protect you. Shipbuilding is your business, but if you continue to recruit husbands everywhere and destroy production, this official will not be polite. As for your brother, if you dare to talk too much, this official will have a way to punish him. This Yangzhou ...... The official is just staying here for a few years, using Yangzhou as a springboard, he will still enter the court in the future, what the official asks for is peace of mind, and you keep in mind the meaning of the official. ”

This is no longer clear, Cui Yan is in Yangzhou, he doesn't want to cause too much trouble, like his identity, Yangzhou is just an excess of a bright future in the future, and the two Lou Shide brothers, if they have any ambitions, but because of this ambition, they will make trouble, then he will not be polite to them.

Lou Shide lowered his head and did not agree.

"Why, why didn't you say it, didn't you hear the official's words clearly?"

Lou Shide raised his head and said: "Chen Juma ordered me to build a ship, train soldiers, and go to sea to fight a decisive battle with Goguryeo and Baekje sailors, this is the meaning of Chen Juma, and the lower officials are deeply affected by Chen Juma's kindness, and as a waterway captain, he is also shouldering the trust of the imperial court!" These are the duties of the lower officials, whether Cui makes Jun happy or unhappy, but forgive the lower officials for being rude......"

"Bold!" Cui Yan originally wanted to knock this lieutenant, but who knew that this guy was so bold!

So he said loudly and angrily: "Who is in charge of this Yangzhou?" ”

"It's Chen Yuma!" Lou Shide grinned and smiled at Cui Yan.

If it was in the past, a person like Lou Shide would definitely not dare to contradict anyone.

But now...... After experiencing countless ups and downs in the sea, he seems to have finally figured it out.

In this world, except for the Chen family, no one will really care about him, and no one will support him, except for Chen Zhengtai, he Lou Shide no one recognizes.

As soon as he heard Chen Yuma, Cui Yan was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood, and shouted angrily: "This official is a stabbing history, which means that he represents the imperial court." ”

"You...... You ......"

Lou Shide ignored him at this time, turned around and left.

He can be respectful to Cui Yan, he can be flattering to Cui Yan, and he can even grovel, but ...... This Cui Yan can't stop him from completing the mission given to him by Chen Zhengtai.

Therefore, he walked straight away, ignoring it, no matter how Cui Yan called behind his back.

Looking at the back that was straight and going farther and farther, Cui Yan's face was extremely terrifying, and then, he sat on the Hu chair, and Lou Shide's terrifying look appeared in his mind.

"Bold." After a long pause, Cui Yan suddenly shouted: "This Lou Shide is not only a minister who treats crimes, but also has the audacity to come to the world, take pen and ink, the official wants to impeach him personally, call Cui San to come, let him personally bring the impeachment and the letter of the official to the fourth uncle first, and tell him that this district lieutenant, if the official does not rectify it ruthlessly, this Yangzhou assassin history will not do it." ”

After a pause, Cui Yan said again: "Also, prepare the carriage and horses, and the official will go to see Zhang Gong, the envoy of Huainan Province." ”

Cui Yan certainly can't do anything about Lou Shide.

However, the Huainan Province to which Yangzhou belongs is different according to the inspector, and Yangzhou belongs to Huainan Road, one of the ten provinces in the world. Of course, the imperial court did not set up a fixed official position in Huainan Province, and often appointed some people from the imperial court to inspect various provinces, and according to the inspectors, they did not belong to the local officials, but should belong to the Beijing officials, but only in the name of the imperial court, temporarily inspected in Huainan Province.

So, they're more like chincha.

And since it is a chap, then the duty is very important, although this is only a five-grade official, but it can judge the good and evil of the official; Check that the household registration is scattered, the account is hidden, and the service is uneven; Cha Nong Sang is not diligent, and the warehouse is reduced; Investigate the demon and the cunning thief, do not make a living, and harm the beetle for personal gain; Chade line filial piety, Mao Cai is different, etc., hidden artifacts are obscure, and those who should be used at the time; Investigate local illegal acts such as mergers and arson, poor and weak people who cannot claim their grievances, and even have the right to act cheaply.

Thus...... As long as the inspector is willing to speak, Lou Shide can be brought to justice immediately in the name of the following crimes!

…………

On the other end, Lou Shide returned to the water village with an ugly face.

Lou Shixian saw that Lou Shide's face was pale, and he hurriedly stepped forward with concern and said, "Brother, what's wrong?" ”

Lou Shide only said: "That assassin is quite unkind to my two brothers, I am afraid that the ship will be stepped up, and it is better to set sail as soon as possible." ”

Lou Shixian said: "It's just ...... There are only sixteen ships waiting for us, and although the supplies are sufficient and the soldiers are willing to use their lives, this is only a small number of people...... If it really doesn't work, he should immediately send a letter to Engong and ask him to come forward and ease his cheeks. ”

Lou Shide frowned and shook his head and said: "I'm afraid it's too late, just now I was on fire, and I have no scruples about speaking, Cui Yan will repay this person, and he is bound to try his best to cure my crimes!" On my way back, I weighed in my heart, fearing that he would seek out the envoy and hold me accountable for my faults. If I'm guilty, it doesn't matter. I'm afraid that because of myself, I will miss the big thing of Engong! ”

Lou Shixian couldn't help but be anxious, and couldn't think of any way for a while, so he simply said: "Why don't I go to Chang'an immediately and go again?" ”

"Let's see." After saying this weakly, Lou Shide frowned and said nothing.

But after a few hours, an official suddenly came.

The official messenger branded the envoy as a procurator, saying that the envoy wanted to arrest the captain Lou Shide and go to the envoy to punish the crime.

Dozens of officials arrived at Shuizhai in a grand manner and saw Lou Shide, and the messenger headed by him said unceremoniously: "Take down the people, Inspector Zhang has something to ask you." ”

The generals in the water village looked at each other, Lou Shide treated them well on weekdays, and the supplies were sufficient, they were confident that they had the protection of the Chen family, and the Chen family was a party of the prince, and they were desperate for the Chen family, but where did they think of it......

"Do you really want to take people?" Lou Shide stepped forward and saluted the poor man, he glanced at Lou Shixian, Lou Shixian understood, and hurriedly took out an IOU from his sleeve, wanting to stuff it into the hand of this poor man.

The messenger sneered: "Offended Zhang Zhaocha and Cui Tingshi, who dares to ask for your money?" Come on, take it. ”

When Lou Shide heard this, he suddenly turned around, and looked at him indifferently like a blade: "It turns out that he only offended the envoy and the assassin, so he has to punish him?" I thought that my Lou Shide had violated the king's law, but now it seems that you are bending the law for personal gain. ”

"What?" The poor person was stunned.

Lou Shide looked at him with a sneer and said, "Order, tie up these lawless messengers." And also...... Ordered the water village to go up and down, and immediately deliver supplies and weapons to the ship, today...... Set sail and go to sea! ”

The messenger was furious: "You are so daring! ”

Lou Shide listened to his words, but he raised his leg and kicked this poor person over.

Lou Shide is also a strong general, at this time, this kick, as heavy as a thousand pounds, sent someone ah, like a puddle of mud, directly fell to the ground.

Lou Shide pressed the hilt of the knife on his waist and scolded: "What are you, my seven-foot man, how can I put my life and death in the hands of such a despicable official as you?" Do you really think that with your modest power and skills, you can trap the tigers? I'm afraid it's not that you don't know the benefits of the tiger's minions! ”
