Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it has reached the twenty-third year of Zhenguan.

The sky was still shining with a bright sun just now, and in an instant, dark clouds filled the sky. The weather in Guangzhou changes like a child's face in a moment.

A long line of cargo ships docked along the wharf, and when it got dark, the workers on the shore sped up and desperately moved the goods down, trying to move more goods to the warehouse before the rain.

In recent years, Guangzhou Port has been rectified by the city department, the road has been widened, the warehouse has also increased, and even the road has been reinforced with cement.

In the past two years, the entire Guangzhou port has tripled, the cargo throughput has tripled, and the city has received money and received soft hands. Everyone hated this department to the core, but the cruising naval warship in the distance told them on behalf of Li Dongsheng that they liked the way you didn't like me and had to build Datang with me.

Li Dongsheng got up and washed up, and then went to the yard to move his body. The weather in Guangzhou is very hot, and I sweat when I move, but the cool breeze is very comfortable today.

"Father!" "Teacher!" Two young people came from the corner to greet him, it was Li Siwei and Di Renjie. Now they are all young men, and they really miss their father and master, so the two of them came to see him on a boat together.

"Hmm!" Looking at Yushu Linfeng's son and students, Li Dongsheng was in a good mood. When people are younger than themselves in this life, aren't they better than their children and grandchildren when they are older, and their sons and students are so outstanding, who can not be happy.

"Father, we still want to see where we go to the port today." Li Siwei said.

"Don't go out if it's going to rain, right?"

"Master, let's go out and have a look, if it rains, just sit in the street shop, anyway, the rain here comes quickly, and it goes quickly."

Seeing that they were so active, Li Dongsheng waved his hand and asked them to play by themselves, and picked up the Datang Daily to read it carefully.

Yes, Datang Daily is now distributed nationwide, although it is a few days later than the news of Chang'an, but it is enough for Li Dongsheng to understand the movements of Chang'an City.

In recent years, Datang has gone to many celebrities, Fang Xuanling, Ma Zhou, etc. have passed away one after another, and now Li Dongsheng is most concerned about the body of his uncle Li Jing.

The development of the city department in recent years has been explosive, and now Li Dongsheng can't return to Chang'an, and now the tax revenue of his department is up to 30% of the income of the entire Datang.

In the past few years, taking advantage of Li Shimin's single-minded pursuit of Taoism, thinking of immortality, all political affairs have been handed over to Li Zhi to manage, Fang Xuanling and Ma Zhou have also died of illness one after another, and the eldest grandson Wuji has completely held power in the political affairs hall, and he has made a promise.

He just pressed Li Dongsheng in Guangzhou, as long as he couldn't return to Chang'an, it would not pose a threat to Changsun Chong.

However, this arrangement is also in line with Li Dongsheng's mind, he wants to take advantage of the absence of people in Chang'an, everything is easy to operate, and he doesn't know how much preparation has been completed in private.

His own fleet has completed the voyage of the route from Datang to Daqin, repaired for a period of time, and last year has been allowed to go on a journey to find the Americas.

Cheng Yanjin has completely let go of himself in the past two years, with the navy of the Tang Dynasty, the entire Guangzhou Metropolitan Governor's Mansion is worry-free, the old guy actually accepted two concubines, basically just asked about affairs, and only cared about being happy in the backyard, which made Li Dongsheng slander in his heart, are you going to give Cheng Chumo a younger brother and sister?

In recent years, Li Dongsheng has vigorously developed the navy, and in addition to not handing over artillery to them, he has also replaced them with more than a dozen new ships. The most important thing is that Li Dongsheng instilled in them a new concept, that is, the navy is an offensive force, not just a team of guards in the harbor.

The first thing Li Dongsheng asked Laiheng to take Xue Rengui and the navy to do was to wipe out all the pirates in the entire Datang coast in Guangzhou Port, and there was no longer the exaggerated scene of pirates with hundreds of ships and tens of thousands of people in the past. At most, there are three or two kittens, driving a broken boat out to sea to try their luck.

The navy is the most expensive branch of the military, and every voyage is attrition. The amount of money required for such a large-intensity battle, such a large team, is amazing. Thanks to the pirates' treasures as subsidies, the soldiers would have collapsed long ago. Those pirates could never have imagined that they had worked so hard to save a little money and actually cheapen the navy.

Just because the harvest of the bandits was unstable, and the number of pirates was getting fewer and fewer, Li Dongsheng came up with a new source of money, that is, escorting merchant ships.

In recent years, everyone has seen the great development of shipping, and the sea from Daqin to Datang is full of merchant ships. The pirates here in Datang have been cleaned up, and Li Dongsheng doesn't care about places outside Datang.

Now the escort proposed by the Datang Navy has been warmly welcomed by the merchant ships, especially the Hu merchants, with the powerful Datang Navy by their side, they should be much more down-to-earth, and the navy and the merchant ships are also mutually beneficial, which has promoted the development of Guangzhou Port.

Sometimes when it is not pleasing to the eye, one or two countries can be destroyed by the way, and Lin Yiguo is the victim of this way. There are merchant ships on the sea by the pirates of Linyi country, Lai Heng took the navy to go up and beat people up, but I didn't expect that later people called the navy of the eldest brother Linyi country, this move completely angered the navy officers, and then just hit all the way to the capital of the people, and the king who captured the people was escorted to Chang'an.

It is said that Li Shimin, who has not seen anyone for a long time, was shocked, and he destroyed a country so silently, when did the military strength of the Tang Dynasty become so strong?

When he saw a piece of news, Li Dongsheng's eyes suddenly froze, and the newspaper said in the corner that the eldest grandson Wuji went to Zhaoling last month to pay tribute to the eldest grandson queen.

At this time, a prime minister actually went to Zhaoling to sweep the tomb, could it be that he helped Li Shimin to see it? There's so much to work with in this one.

While he was thinking, Daniel Zhang whispered outside the door: "Young Master, Master Qian has arrived." ”

When his father-in-law arrived, of course Li Dongsheng had to greet him personally. opened the door and welcomed the richest man in, in the past few years, he has been calling for wind and rain in Guangzhou, and the scenery is very good.

His son-in-law is a city envoy, and Cheng Yanjin is a drinking friend with him. With a lot of wealth in hand, as long as you want to do business and want to turnover, you are the first choice of Sanxin Qianzhuang, and now in order to facilitate everyone to open up the business of Hangzhou, Chang'an, Luoyang and the Wa Kingdom and several large capitals, the biggest change is that you can access it in other places. For businessmen who have a lot of wealth that they can't carry with them, this is a rain from heaven. The whole money bank business is booming.
