Pang Ji went back with joy, he felt that he didn't understand something or couldn't make a decision, just come to this kid directly, why bother to embarrass himself, the way he came up with was not only not good but also brain-consuming, just like Sun Ce told Sun Quan when he died, and hesitated to ask Zhou Yu.

Lu Zifei sent Pang away like a plague god, what did you do with this transfer and ask yourself, you are too easy to be an official! As for the new continent of wool, he had to experiment many times with the craftsmen.

In the distant country of Mayi, Song Qi set foot on this land again after a year, the construction sites and farmers sown by the Han people everywhere, he and the little butcher made the Great Song Dynasty but destroyed this pure land!

Looking at the neat rice field, Song Qi asked a little puzzledly: "Didn't the people of Ma Yi casually leave the seedlings in the ground?" Why is it so neat now, it looks like the planting method of our Song people. ”

"Your Excellency, you don't know, the court is now turning a blind eye to going to sea, and the common people of the coastal zone have left their hometowns and come here when they see the huge treasures brought back by the merchants and the colorful descriptions of those people.

Sign an agreement with the natives here, the Han people, no matter how many times you plant a year, but you have to hand over the harvest of a planting to the natives, now the Han people on the island account for a quarter, and there is a trend of continuous expansion. ”

Song Qi asked, "Then how about their harvest, compared to being in the Great Song Dynasty?" ”

"Of course it's much better, this year Ma Yi is still in good weather, planting three seasons and getting two seasons of grain by themselves, and then they themselves united to organize manpower and boats, and sold them to the Great Song Dynasty, the villains have counted that it is ten times their income from farming in the Great Song Dynasty."

Song Qi continued to ask, "What about those people from the capital?" They pay so many taxes, they can't go home empty-handed! The most productive thing on Mayi Island is grain! ”

"Those nobles in the capital can't compare to the association formed by the common people, they don't look down on the grain industry, wood and minerals are their focus now, you can't imagine that someone will open the shipyard here!"

Song Qi said: "A chopstick is easy to break, a chopstick is not so simple, here I see a group of thriving and full of desire for life, why there are only a few trees left, how not to cut it all at once." ”

"Master Lu, no, it should be called Hou Ye Lu now, when he left, he left a rule, to cut a big tree, a small tree must be planted, all big trees are not allowed to be cut down at one time, a few must be left, say what is to prevent soil erosion."

Song Qiyan said insincerely: "What the little butcher said in this regard is still very prestigious, you can come up with a policy, the Han people who come here must abide by this rule, and they must fish with all their might, and I see a lot of people with soldiers and armor here, how do you deal with the conflict." ”

"At first, it was true that as the adults said, there were more than a dozen fights and bloodshed every day, either the Han and the locals clashed or the Han and the Han people you don't obey me, I don't obey you, the adults know that they are all the private soldiers of the nobles.

On weekdays, they are used to being arrogant and domineering, and then Cao Patrol came once, and they were all obedient, and now they are not allowed to clash with Han people, and the dead will directly cancel the qualifications of both sides to go to the island, and they have stopped a lot recently. ”

Song Qi said: "These have to become rules, let them know that they are thousands of miles away, Da Song is also their master, and there is a way to clean them up, I don't like that little butcher's bloody methods."

But I still agree with most of his approaches, the patrol army is your strongest backing, don't be afraid, there was a riot far away from the imperial court here, our hard work will be in vain, when it is time to use iron-blooded means to suppress it directly, don't hesitate. ”

"Yes, my lord, I understand, there is one more thing I want to report to my lordship, many people have asked me Siam, Bagan, Annam, whether we will send people to these countries."

Song Qi said: "Not for the time being, the reform of the imperial court is in full swing, the army is an important project of the reform, and the ministers of the court will not agree to it, they spontaneously organize us to care." ”

If a subordinate can't understand the meaning of his superiors like this, then there is no need for him to stay with the leader.

"I'll tell them, my lord, this year, the tax paid by the city department to the imperial court is almost 20 million yuan, which is worth half of the agricultural taxes of the Great Song Dynasty, why hasn't the imperial court opened the sea ban openly?"

Song Qi said with a smile: "You are also a person from the center, why can't you see clearly, the sea ban is not a big deal for them, in the final analysis, the problem is still in the army and the generals, if the emperor didn't believe in that little butcher, you would have borrowed wine at home to kill your sorrows?" ”

"The little one still doesn't understand, but I really should be grateful to Master Lu, but I didn't have the opportunity to see him in person."

Song Qi said: "You still don't understand this? Doesn't the opening of the sea ban require the deployment of military forces on the coast and at sea? Take Ma Yi as an example, the current situation is equivalent to changing the direction of expanding the territory, without the escort of the army, those businessmen dare to drive on the sea so swaggeringly, and they need soldiers to fight, so you must not improve the position of the soldiers. ”

"The villain is too young at sea, the adults take one step and look at three steps, and my steps can't keep up with the eyes of the adults."

Song Qi said with a smile: "The most obvious example is that because of the opening of the sea ban, the emperor has sealed a marquis and a county man. ”

"Now everyone says that giving birth to a son should be like Marquis Lu, I don't have the blessing to see him, hereditary Marquis!"

Song Qi said: "I don't want to see him for the rest of my life, can you imagine the scene of a nineteen-year-old boy ordering 20,000 people to be burned alive?" It smelled so clear from miles away, and I didn't want to go through it again. ”

"Do you mean he's only twenty years old? When I was 20 years old, I was still thinking about how I could get into a jinshi. The kind that doesn't ask for nouns, people at the age of twenty have given themselves a Hou Ye back, and people can't be compared! ”

"You can compare with others, forget it with him, I said I don't like his bloody methods, but his demon level may not be one for thousands of years, he should be in the exam at this time, hurry up and let him go to the capital Huohuo Those big officials in the court!"

"I believe that Hou Ye Lu has a smart brain, but you said that he can compare his wits with those old foxes in the court, isn't it a little?"

Song Qi snorted coldly and said: "His political acumen is not bad, but he is not interested in those, and you will definitely suffer if you underestimate him." ”

His subordinates took Song Qi around the island for a day, looking at the rice in the field and the houses that were completed, the time of a year is really changing, the character and tradition of the Han people are indeed incomparable, go there, assimilate there.

As long as there is land, crops can be grown, as long as there is soil, crops can be grown, not to mention ten years, in another five years, you look again, Song Qi felt that it was the Han people sitting on the chair, and the wisdom of the two races was not at the same level at all.

And Lu Houye, who has changed all this, is trying on his cotton quilt at home, sleeping on it is really a long-lost enjoyment, Master Li hugged Xiao Junxiang and said: "Tomorrow is the day of the list, will you go?" ”

Lu Zifei buried his head in the cotton and said, "Go! How can you not go? Anyway, it's my first official imperial examination, and the title of Xiucai is not worth much, so I still want to get the first place and come back to show off. ”

Master Li smiled: "You just blow it!" When the time comes, you won't be able to pass the township test, I'll see how you face Jiangdong's fathers. ”

Lu Zifei said: "The probability of failing the test is small, Xiaoyun wrote a letter to say that the house in the capital is ready, and tomorrow all the corn and peppers in the field will be recovered!" There are also sweet potatoes, and when the results come out, we rush to the capital, where the stage is more suitable for a genius like me. ”

Master Li took a sip and said, "Don't be ashamed, put gold on your face, I'll go to feed Junxiang, you get up quickly." ”

"Come up and try it! This quilt is really comfortable, and it is a pleasure to do things on it. ”

"Hooligans, thinking about this kind of thing in broad daylight, shameless, and absurd."

Lu Zifei shouted: "You want to go there, it's you who think about it, you women's thoughts are really dirty, what I said is sleeping, reading, you are hopeless." ”

"Forcibly explain, can you be a little more shameless? It's rare to be shameless to be like you. ”

Under normal circumstances, people are not allowed to leave the royal street in the capital, unless it is a special situation, such as the champion parade street, the emperor travels on major festivals, and there is also an eight-hundred-mile urgent messenger with a red feather on his back.

The guards on the Suzaku Gate saw the messenger and waved his hand to let him go, and the messenger rushed all the way into the palace, and the first person to see this kind of letter was the emperor himself, and only when the emperor was not there, the prime minister could open it on his behalf.

"Eight hundred miles northwest of the expedited."

Zhao Zhen said nervously: "Take it, let me take a look." After reading the letter, Zhao Zhen didn't know how to describe his mood at this moment, his father and grandfather were beaten by the Liao people and couldn't raise their heads, in their own hands, the Liao State was wiped out by the Western Xia in a remote corner, and the 100,000 cavalry fled back to the high-level, and the rest of the people and horses were all left in the land of the river meander.

"Go and summon a cadre to the palace to reply, don't forget the Privy Council and the Ministry of War."

After Fan Zhongyan and the others came in, they could guess that it was probably a good thing to see the emperor's happy expression, Zhao Zhen handed the letter to Yan Shu and asked them to circulate it, Yan Shu's excitement on his face after reading it was also overflowing, and he said after giving the letter to Jia Changchao: "Great news, the minister congratulates the emperor." ”

After everyone watched it, they felt cooler than stealing people, the Liao State has always been a big stone pressing on their heads, and this time it was defeated so badly, it was a bit unexpected, did the powerful horse start to go downhill?
