Chapter 363. Preparatory Assembly
Wang Hou has really changed people's lives, just like this breakfast stall, in the past, the fritter maker lit a fire every morning and began to fry fritters, but now it is the eternal fire altar at the corner of the street, please come back with a holy fire, and after lighting the fire, you have to pray to the fire, thank the One God for the light and warmth in the world.
Wang Hou also played himself in, which finally eliminated the threat of rebellion of the cult in his own territory, and returned to the sea at night Xiao Bieye just slept comfortably, but in the early morning he let Lu Ji, the Red Festival and a Sakura Ji wake up together, if he wants to die or live, he has to surround the eternal fire altar that his house has also built, and pray to the flame that the Taiyi God will give the Wang family a big fat son as soon as possible!
You let your husband sleep well for a while, don't have a few fat sons, and he is sleepy in front of the flames, Wang Hou is straight to the point that he can't live!
After the heresy judged Zhenhong, the Eternal Flame Cult did not settle down, the trial was addicted, and the Rose Flame Knights expanded to fifty people, specializing in patrolling the island and the sun.
At present, there have been no abuses of the power of the Knights of the Rose Flame, although it is unknown what the future holds.
Then on the other side, Yu Ji was really sad and had to go down the mountain again, although the entire Eternal Flame Sect had nothing to do with him from the naming to the organizational form and even to the doctrine, however, the entire Sect was "swaggering" in his name, nominally his disciples and grandchildren.
Wang Hou was arrogant when he went up the mountain, and now the order is going to be expanded, and a new temple will be set up in Linzi and Rizhao, and preachers are needed. If you recruit people with bad character, cheat and bully men and women, you will lose your old man's face!
It is estimated that this time the old man Yu will be so angry that he will live for a year and a half, but in the smile that Wang Hou is so cheap that people can't wait to slap them, Yu Ji, who cherishes feathers, still has to go down the mountain in a hurry.
The Eternal Flame Council and the Eternal Fire Academy were established again in the Island City Temple in the silent efforts of the old guy.
Just like the Western aristocracy, the concubines, illegitimate children, peripheral children of various great families in Qingzhou who have no hope of inheriting the family business, and the true Taoism who are really fascinated by the "Taiping Sutra" have gathered in Qingzhou to enroll in the school and become the successor force of the order.
From here, the Han Dynasty casually built a grass hut in the deep mountains and forests, raised some chickens and planted some herbs to call themselves Taoist priests, and only those who have studied the Taiping Sutra and the doctrine of the eternal fire through the seminary and obtained the certification of the order are qualified to call themselves Taoists!
There is a special missionary group for the mission, there are Taoist doctors left behind in the temple, and some ascetics do not show their heads, and only stay in the back court of the temple to meditate on nature, spirit and doctrine, as well as the inquisition and the armed forces, and now there are even institutions for talent absorption and promotion, and the eternal fire burning in the east seems to be just around the corner.
The mental narcotics of this flickering big guy following his suffering expedition are ready, and Wang Hou also began to prepare for the next hand, don't forget that he promised Mr. Cao to collect millions of stones of grain in the spring of next year in order to conquer Wuhuan and completely destroy the Yuan family, not to mention millions now, he didn't transport a hundred loads out of Qingzhou.
…………
"Lost Lambs, the merciful Father is watching us, accept His love, and take refuge in His arms!"
Under the window, you can hear an eternal fire preacher holding a staff and preaching with all his might, and the citizens passing by are worshipping and worshipping nearby! The window was closed suddenly, and Jia Xu paced back to the conference table with a gloomy old face.
However, this also made him uncomfortable, because it was more orderly than two thousand stones, and it actually hurt to stay with a few businessmen for a meeting, especially one who opened a green building.
All right! Guan Zhong also opened a green building back then!
can only secretly comfort himself in his heart, Jia Xu put the treatment in his hand on the table, and his voice was still weak.
"Zhang Yan brought from Hebei the Black Mountain thieves and 20,000 reserve soldiers, in two months, Weicheng Port opened a total of 20 ponds, a total of 30 ships, but in accordance with the order of the Zhou Mu, the focus is on shipbuilding, the port area is not built, only the wharf is repaired first!"
"If the state pastor is requisitioned, the owners of the island city chamber of commerce can make up about forty big ships for the state pastor to call, but the ship has it, and the sailors ......."
Successful people often look farther than others, nonsense is so, in Rizhao Port, he was the first to see the shortcomings of insufficient capacity between the two ports, now many migratory families have declined and civilians are no different, he relies on the Hu family carriage to operate, but he has become a big tyrant with 2,000 cars, 10,000 cattle and horses, and more than 20 large and small ships.
Other island city wealthy businessmen are still tired of not cooperating with the Xuzhou Chamber of Commerce that was suddenly pinched together by Wang Hou, and it was also Hu Yan who took the lead in seeing the benefits of joining together, and took the lead in supporting Wang Hou's policy, and now the president of the Island City Chamber of Commerce is sitting steadily, and even Wang Hou reciprocated for him to apply for the viscount of Qingxian County!
But this kid is really slippery enough, knowing that Wang Hou needs to use a boat, let's actively cooperate, and take the opportunity to throw out the problems he encountered again.
Lack of sailors!
In fact, this problem not only plagued the Qingzhou maritime merchants of this era, even at the peak of the British Empire in later generations, they were always faced with the problem of a shortage of sailors, throughout almost most of the British Empire, the number of sailors on the merchant ships of the Royal Navy and various trading companies only reached two-thirds of the full crew.
Even if the British enclosure movement drove the peasants off the land, the peasants who poured into the cities would rather be exploited for twenty-five hours a day in sweatshops than be sailors with this good wage.
After all, the sea is too dangerous and too unknown! And sailing on the sea, it is too common to see the land for a month and months, and there is no life to make money and no life to spend, or even nowhere to spend, what is the use of having money?
Now the situation in Qingzhou is similar, although the previous land dividend is now gone, tens of thousands of plantations have been built around, the supply is sufficient, the government no longer subsidizes the cultivation of plantations, and the contract of the island city land has to pay additional money to the government to buy, but to the dock as a buddy, as a porter, to the sugar factory brewery help, tired to the plantation as a helper to farm, all survive, willing to go to the sea to take risks is still too few.
Even Wang Hou's own Qingzhou fishing fleet is facing a shortage of sailors!
Still didn't detach himself from the consciousness of Eastern feudalism, he looked at Wang Hou with nonsense, hoping that as soon as he gave an order, he would drive twenty or thirty thousand people to drive ducks to the sea to be sailors, rough and simple.
It's just that he thinks simply, but Wang Hou is embarrassed, it is difficult to recruit sailors, and no matter how strong he is, he will not make the people even more tired of going to sea? Seeing the sea as a daunting path?
Hu Yan looked at him, and Wang Hou looked at the other side of the round table again, dressed like a male demon and a high-speed rail son.
"It doesn't matter if it's down, there is a thick account book for gambling debts owed to the gambling house, but before the state pastor looked at the rules too hard, he could only owe it first, if the adults had such a wide hand, hundreds of sailors would definitely be able to make it up, give more time, and no matter how much!
Hu Yan is reserved in response, and the high-speed rail that can play is completely used as the sole of his shoe, as if until the Song Dynasty, adults are not the pronouns of officials, especially the elders in the family, as long as he can let go of the debt collection, he is willing to call Wang Hou an uncle, you say cheap or not!
However, cheapness also has the benefits of cheapness, and Wang Hou nodded helplessly in distress.
"Okay, I owe you a hundred guan ......, forget it, fifty guan, go with you to collect debts, I will say hello to Gangcheng County, and leave you alone!"
"Thank you, Governor!"
That group of rotten gamblers sent to the sea to eat and drink, it is better than forcing the good people! Besides, gamblers are generally bold and careful, even if they are not careful, at least they are bold! Let them go on an adventure at sea, and maybe it will work wonders!
The sailor quenched his thirst a little, and Wang Hou set his eyes on Su Shuang, president of the Xuzhou Chamber of Commerce, the next moment.
"President Su, how much can Xu Liang enter this year!"
But as soon as this was mentioned, Su Shuang's eyebrows were embarrassed and became a caterpillar......
