Section 361 Visiting Groups

People's ideological concepts are changing very quickly. When he was wandering in the cabin, Zuo Baoliu gritted his teeth at the old tent in the village: the bad old man is too bad, what will happen when the old man returns to the village one day......

As a result, when Zuo Baoliu got a house in the community and started to work, he was full of gratitude to the old thing. Yes, except for the old man's mistake of Chihkan as Zhoushan, the rest really didn't lie to him.

No, Zuo Baoliu was in the mulberry cocoon company under the Ministry of Agriculture, and soon lived a painful and happy life.

It is said that happiness is because life here is like paradise: the environment is beautiful, the food is abundant, the wages are paid on time, there is no bullying by officials and landlords, and there is no pressure in life, ordinary people only need to work honestly to live a good life.

Say that the pain is because of learning. Although Zuo Baoliu is a good hand at planting mulberry, his level is obviously not enough here, so he has a hard time in night school. People who lack basic theories struggle to understand the concepts of bacteria, soil composition, microorganisms, pests and diseases.

The life of ease and a little difficulty soon changed Zuo Baoliu's inside and out. He was no longer the man with a wooden face, a clumsy face, and a sad smell all over his body. The current Zuo Baoliu, who is willing to make contact with people, speaks loudly, and walks in a hurry, has been deviated from the style of the fast-paced industrial society.

The women of the Zuo family are also changing at the same time. Zuo Hu, a peasant woman in the countryside who didn't even have a name, first got a nice and fashionable name at the beginning of the registration of getting off the boat: Hu Yuehong.

After that, Hu Yuehong was assigned to the silkworm house. Then as she went home after work every day and excitedly broadcast live, Zuo Baoliu also learned how awesome the silkworm house under the General's Mansion was - he was now trained and knew who was paying his salary.

Then one day, Zuo Baoliu took the opportunity to send mulberry leaves, and finally came on a fantasy trip: he first saw the inside of the silkworm house with his own eyes.

He was shocked by the industrialized clean conservatory, the heating, the large windows, the thermometer, the thick white cotton paper...... The function of these magical things Zuo Baoliu had heard it from women countless times, and now that he saw it with his own eyes, he couldn't help but sigh.

Compared with the local method of raising silkworms in the village in the past years, the silkworm house here is the difference between heaven and earth: a basket of white finished silkworm cocoons can prove it.

Tainan is warm all year round, so the business of sericulture can be carried out all year round. A large silkworm cocoon, the cocoon color is white, and the finished silkworm cocoon is called "car cocoon" here, which means that the high-grade mulberry cocoon can be reeled by the machine.

After Zuo Baoliu delivered the mulberry leaves, he happily took the initiative to be caught and pushed the cocoon basket to the silk reeling workshop to deliver the cocoon. Here he saw a semi-manual and semi-mechanized silk reeling production line. After half-understanding the machine reeling, Zuo Baoliu was caught again, drove the carriage, and pulled the finished raw silk to the dock warehouse.

The quality of raw silk produced from silkworm seeds in later generations is rare in this plane. Now all businessmen know that the clothes woven from the raw silk produced by Dayuan here are not only smooth and even, plump and silky, but also have good elasticity, large fastness, and uniform coloring, which are the top silk products.

Therefore, the spontaneous silk named "chiffon" by the textile company has now occupied the top of the East Asian raw silk market, and the price has soared to 300 taels of silver, which is still in short supply.

Then Zuo Baoliu's fantastic journey ended here - after he finished the delivery at the Chihkan warehouse, he stood at the door happily, craned his neck to watch a bunch of merchants auction raw silk. The next moment, several red and black hairy people somehow fought, and then Zuo Baoliu was around laughing, whistling and the footsteps of the police rushing around, and was inexplicably smashed in the head by an auctioneer's small copper hammer, and then was sent to the hospital.

......

Zuo Baoliu let the flying strange object smash his head, and then the police ran to arrest the Dutch merchant and the Spanish merchant, and was watched by several people who were looking at the scenery of the Taijiang River not far away.

"Hmph, the demons are dancing wildly, there is no culture and education, it's really Sven sweeping the floor!"

The one who spoke was a middle-aged man in his forties, who was white and clean, with a Chinese face, and was dressed in a lake silk line. Now that the temperature is rising in June, on the Taijiang Wharf with cargo jackets and linen T-shirts everywhere, this person can still wear soft feet and a straight outfit, so there is no doubt that this old man is from the Ming Kingdom.

"A little thing, Song Weng doesn't need to care." At this time, a handsome man in his thirties, wearing a thin robe, was standing next to the middle-aged man, smiling while shaking a folding fan.

"Alas, the ...... of the outer land" The middle-aged man shook his head at this time, with an angry look: "Let's go, let's go and see the crops first." Agriculture is the foundation of the country and should not be taken lightly. ”

After saying that, he took the lead and walked to the taxi with a few people.

This old man's surname is Bu, and his name is Bu Daxing.

Master Bu is a native of Xianyou County, Fujian, with the title of Fujian Judge, and his actual post is the deputy envoy of Xingquan Military Reserve in charge of Xinghua and Quanzhou reserves. According to the understanding of later generations, this official position is probably the deputy director of the Provincial Garrison Command and the deputy director of the People's Armed Forces Department of a certain city, in short, it is an idle errand.

So why did Master Bu appear in Chikan? That's a long story.

It is said that since Cao Chuan worshiped Chongzhen as the boss and put on the official skin, exchanges between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait in all aspects have increased rapidly.

It's a normal process. Most of the subjects of a certain pocket empire were actually subjects of the Ming State before Fujian and Zhejiang, and the two sides were very closely connected, with flights departing every day. So gradually, some high-level officials of the Ming Kingdom also began to notice this isolated place overseas.

Fujian officials were the first to set their sights on the strait. After all, many of them knew merchants, villagers and poor relatives who had gone to Dayuan's side to beg for a living, and the distance between the two places was so close that the officials could easily get detailed information on the other side.

In addition, the industrial products pouring into Fujian like a tide, such as salt, building materials, daily chemicals, hardware, etc., also made the conservative and sluggish officials begin to face up to the new force of the Cao family.

After all, the traversal is different from Zheng Zhilong in history: the Zheng family only cares about themselves, and they have to collect high toll taxes; And through the public since the fake Cao Chuan Zhang Dongdong below, all those who were sent to Fujian are all the legendary God of Wealth.

Now there is a consensus in both officialdom and shopping malls: as long as you can get in touch with the Cao family, you will definitely be able to make a fortune. There are too many examples of this, countless small people who have acted as agents for a certain industrial product to sell back to their hometowns, or participated in a certain development project, have become rich overnight because they have seized the opportunity.

So the current officials are happy to deal with the Cao family, both public and private: I don't see that the backyard of the governor's yamen already has a two-story small building, and there is a flush toilet? Who said that being an official does not cultivate the government, it is because he has not met enthusiastic people!

Therefore, Master Bu Daxing received an official document not long ago.

This official document was forwarded to him by Master Bu's immediate boss, Master Jiao, the military envoy.

The content of the official document: In view of the lax armament in the Xingquan area, the old armament of the battalions and guards in various places, and the many who are rotten, the Xingquan military preparation plan to send capable personnel to Taiwan to inspect - it is said that Taiwan has natives, and they can build high-quality weapons. If the inspection is correct, Bingbei Dao intends to use this year's government procurement quota on this.

When Master Bu first received the official document, Zhang Er Jingang was also confused. You must know that he, as a deputy envoy, has never been in charge of affairs, and it is even more difficult for him to issue important documents like this that involve government procurement.

So after Master Bu went back, he sent someone to inquire. After this inquiry, he figured out the reason: Master Jiao's brother-in-law had just gone to the other side of the river not long ago, and when he came back, he became the general agent of Xinghua Mansion for the fire sickle of Dunhill Road.

After figuring out the joints, Master Bu immediately scolded a silverfish of the country in the study.

It is said that this old man Bu is the last Jinshi of the three lists in the Wanli period. Although his results in the civil service examination are average, Master Bu has a square nature, loves to study scriptures and righteousness, and is quite interested in the way of sages...... In other words, he is rigid and unfit to be an official.

Fortunately, the Bu family is also a solid family in Xianyou County, although there are not many Jinshi in the clan, but there are many talents, so there is no shortage of him as a moral gentleman. So Master Bu's career is more freehand: he has always moved between the deputy positions of various yamen, and has never been a chief official.

After the old man Bu, who was a little crazy, reached the age of forty, he found that he was more and more unaccustomed to the flies and dogs of this officialdom, coupled with the fierce party competition in the court, so he found this idle errand near his hometown, and planned to return to his hometown to teach and educate people after his term.

I didn't want to come but received such an official document. What made Master Bu most unhappy was that this public civilization was supposed to send him to an idle job to deal with an errand. In the official documents, there are signatures and approvals from the two major yamen, the government and the Fu Ya - the people have already opened up the joints, and they are waiting to finish the errand and spend the public money to make friends with the Haikou surnamed Cao!

This is the reason why Master Bu scolded a corrupt official and a Haikou in the study.

Just when Master Bu decided to scold Xiong Wencan and commit a traitor to the party, and then hang up the seal and leave, he was persuaded by others.

It was a junior who came from afar to persuade him. The name of this junior is a little famous in later generations: his name is Fang Tangjing.

However, this Fang Tangjing of the Ming Dynasty was not the famous master in the last years of the Qing Dynasty, he was just an ordinary talent.

Fang Tangjing came all the way from Hangzhou, and he was a guest of Master Bu's family in the same year. In addition, his main purpose is to visit Taiwan - Hangzhou Station has also created a wealth myth in the local area, so many doctors with a keen sense of smell have sent people to Taiwan for research.

So when Fang Tangjing learned the reason why Master Bu was angry, he hurriedly began to persuade the old man, ready to shout at Lao Bu to go to Taiwan for a turn: Anyway, it's public expense, if you don't go, you won't go in vain.
