This small courtyard of Zhehuanxiang is quiet and elegant, and the flower hall is even more warm and graceful, and it is a woman's handwriting at a glance.

Yang Lin looked like a master, and after letting a few brothers sit down, he instructed the maids around him to serve wine and food.

Yang Lin leaned forward and asked: "Xiao Qi, I have asked Xu Jin to start construction in the dock, and it is expected that a hundred warships will be built. ”

The South China Sea Sailor aims to clear the Cham pirates near the South China Sea and restore this golden waterway to a peaceful level.

The coastal areas of Liangguang and Cochin in the south were deeply affected by these Cham pirates, and some places were like hell and were brutalized by these pirates.

Ruan Xiaoqi's eyes lit up and asked, "Nanhai Sailor, I don't know if there is a commander?" ”

Yang Lin immediately interrupted his fantasy and scolded: "What kind of petty official are you, this is a major military matter, and I have to discuss with ministers like Komeito, and what does it have to do with you." ”

Song Jiang also hurriedly smiled: "Xiao Qi just do a good job as your commander of the Chenghai Sea Division, don't be too ambitious." ”

"The Lingnan area, located on the border, has not been taken seriously. There are also Jiaozhi people and Cham pirates who are constantly harassing, in fact, this place is a good gateway to clean up. Yang Lin talked eloquently, ignoring that none of the ministers present today were ministers of people's livelihood and economy, and it was estimated that he didn't understand much.

Speaking in general, he changed his words and said: "To put it bluntly, this is a huge commercial gap, and seventy percent of the wealth of the Great Song Dynasty is concentrated in Kaifeng Mansion, which is not a good thing." ”

"Develop Lingnan?" Song Jiang was stunned.

It is deserted all year round, the legendary place of exile, and I don't know how many Tang poems have made cameo appearances in the miserable north.

Bashan Chushui is desolate, can it still become a prosperous place?

"In those poor places, the people are self-sufficient, and even if they open shops, they can't sell anything."

Yang Lin said with a smile: "No, no matter how self-sufficient a society is, it is impossible to do everything by itself, and the more closed the social structure, the lower the resistance to business." ”

Yang Lin was full of confidence and continued: "For example, every household in Guangzhou has to use furniture, and it may take a month to make a few cases by yourself, and a lot of wood will be wasted. If someone opens a furniture workshop, hires skilled craftsmen, buys a large amount of wood, and can make a few cases in less than three days, plus the wages only need one or two.

Even if a wooden table is sold for three dollars, but the people of Guangzhou sell the wood to the store for a few cases, and they can get a beautiful and durable wooden table without spending more consistently, and save a month's time. But this workshop has made a consistent profit, and Liangguang doesn't know how many people, sooner or later it will slowly start to operate. ”

At this time, a woman walked out of it, shook her head and said: "Da Lang, the account is not calculated like this, there is no surplus wealth in those places at all, many families still barter, and the circulation of money is a problem." ”

Yang Lin saw that it was Yun Niang, stretched out his hand, Yun Niang's face turned red, and she still sat obediently in his arms.

It turned out that Zhehuanxiang was pregnant, so Yang Lin asked her to send someone to take care of her from time to time, but she didn't expect Li Yunniang to come in person every day. It can be seen that she is still very concerned about the blood and bones of the Yang Mansion. Yang Lin knew it in his heart, and secretly said in his heart that he would be better to her in the future, this is his own person.

Yang Lin pinched Yun Niang's thin waist and said: "After opening up Jiaozhi and eradicating the Cham people, there is no shortage of money in Lingnan." In particular, there will be no shortage of silver, and if you don't believe it, there are endless business opportunities there. ”

Yun Niang stayed by her side to pour wine and vegetables, Yang Lin ate to her heart's content without moving her hands, and asked Ruan Xiaoqi to finalize the generals who could fight in several sailors on the spot and transfer them to Fuzhou.

Song Jiang's subordinates were all Northwest military men, and they didn't know anything about the sailors, so they didn't speak very interestingly. Yang Lin already has a candidate in his heart, which is his young general Wu Lan.

Wu Lan went south with him, and never went back, gathering in Youyan famous generals, Han Shizhong, Zong Ze, Wu Jue, Wang Yu... There is no need to strengthen it anymore. The Northwest Army was strong and strong, and the Dangxiang, Kereh, Uighur, and Tibetan were all bowed to their ears, and there was no need to worry about the loyal governors and governors; Qin Long has all the main forces and generals of the Western Army led by Shi Dao, and there is no need to worry about the two or five boys of the Folding Family, plus there is Yelu Dashi to make a barrier for himself.

On the contrary, it was the Seven Buddhas and Liu Zhongwu in the southwest who supported it, although the Manchu Dynasty civil and military looked down on Xiao Jiaozhi, but Yang Lin still looked at this enemy very carefully.

Cochin has its own advantages, and the jungle and disease in the rainy season will be their best weapons, enough to make the army that is not accustomed to the water and soil sink into the sand, and the famous generals will return with hatred.

Yang Lin personally sent Song Jiang and Ruan Xiaoqi away, these two hooked shoulders, they must have found a place to continue drinking and catching up, Yang Lin didn't care about him, and walked into the embroidered boudoir.

Zhe Huanxiang smiled, when she married into the Yao family, her husband had been sick for more than a year, and he couldn't even have a round house, let alone a child.

Now she has finally gotten her wish and is pregnant with her own child, and she is almost in her twenties, which is a good time to conceive.

Yang Lin sat on the edge of the bed, stretched out his arms to hold her in his arms, and lowered his head to kiss her red lips. The two lips and tongues touched each other, and it took a long time before they reluctantly separated.

Yang Lin took out a jewelry box with two hearts connected together from his arms, and said softly: "This is for you." ”

Zhehuanxiang opened it and exclaimed: "What a beautiful ......" inside the box is a gemstone pendant, with exquisite workmanship.

Every angle is a different shape, and it is crystal clear, so that people are reluctant to look away at a glance.

Yang Lin stroked her slightly bulging lower abdomen and said emotionally: "When my mother was dying..."

Lingnan is the general name of the area south of the five mountains in the south of China, separated from the inland by the five mountains.

The five mountains are composed of five mountains, namely Yuecheng Ridge, Du Pang Ridge, Mengzhu Ridge, Qitian Ridge and Da Yu Ridge, which are roughly distributed in the eastern part of Guangxi to the eastern part of Guangdong and the border of Hunan and Jiangxi provinces in later generations. Historically, it has roughly included Guangdong, Hainan, Guangxi, eastern Yunnan, and parts of southwestern Fujian.

Nowadays, Yang Lin divides the world, with Lingnan as the name of the province, covering Liangguang, Fujian and Qiongzhou.

Cai Jing is now in the ancestral house of Chiling, Cixiaoli, Xianyou County, Xinghua Army, his hometown, although this place is a little remote, but after Cai Jing came, it was a hundred times more prosperous, a thousand times.

The ground of the town is worthless, and Cai Jing is rich and rich, so he has purchased and expanded a large mansion within a radius of dozens of miles in one go.

In the backyard, Cai Lingbao was lying on a bamboo mat, with his little feet facing the sky, swaying incessantly. The ten toes are white and crystalline, and they are very attractive.

The plain-clothed beauty next to her, with a slender physique, a delicate figure, and a beautiful face, is the Dali Emperor Duan Miaozhen. She sat at the head of the bed, together with Cai Lingbao, looking at an idle book and covering her lips and chuckling from time to time.

This is circulated among the people, and Yang Lin's anecdotal booklet, although there are many ridicules, have not been searched and reported, but have been widely circulated among the people.

A little maid walked in from outside, leaned closer and said, "Miss, my lord, please come over." ”

Cai Lingbao sighed, then put on his shoes and socks and followed the little maid to Cai Jing.

Under the gazebo, Cai Jing was dressed as an ordinary gentry and wrapped his head in silk satin. After resigning, he was said to be idle, but his spirit was obviously not as good as when he was the prime minister.

Cai Lingbao called out coquettishly, "Daddy." Then he walked up to him and gently kneaded Cai Jing's shoulder.

"Lingbao, Dad's memory is not good, how long have you been at home?"

Cai Lingbao snapped his fingers, chattered for a while, tilted his head and said, "Forget it, Sister Miaozhen must know." ”

Cai Jing secretly shook his head in his heart, just this little girl, it is difficult to expect her to gain a foothold in the back house of the Yang Mansion, let alone have much influence.

Although he was disappointed in his heart, he still had a gentle smile on his face, and said, "Xiao Lingbao, the weather in the south is very hot, and it is getting closer to midsummer, and it will be even more difficult. You better go back as soon as possible, meet Yang Wenyuan, and give him this painting. ”

Cai Lingbao hurriedly put it away, she knew that her father's paintings were valuable.

Cai Jing's calligraphy is a must, and his painting skills are also surprisingly strong, which has changed the mainstream style of the painting world of the Great Song Dynasty.

To this day, Yang Lin's study has the most calligraphy and painting by Cai Jing.

Cai Lingbao also wanted to go back to Bianliang, and said with a sweet smile: "Daddy, when will you go back to Bianliang, we can meet every day." ”

Cai Jing looked at her daughter, full of girlish taste, and was a natural beauty embryo. Although her daughter is a little stupid, she has a good background, has a temperament, and looks so handsome, she may not have no chance. He said meaningfully: "When Daddy will go to Bianliang, it's all up to you." ”

Cochin, Thang Long City.

In June, the land of South Vietnam is lush with vegetation. The noise of cicadas and summer insects, one after another, seems to reflect Li Yanghuan's state of mind, and he is now difficult to find a moment of peace.

Countless Diao people in the north, with the support of the Song people, brazenly rebelled. The most infuriating thing is that Lan Ying's slut was rescued, and Li Yanghuan killed the guards of the entire palace, and he still couldn't get rid of his hatred.

Empress Lan Ying's maiden family is the Li family, a large Jiaozhi clan, and they are afraid of Li Yanghuan's revenge, and after announcing their defection to the rebel forces supported by the Song people, the other party's strength has greatly increased.

At present, these poor and crazy northern thieves are constantly attacking the southern states and counties, killing people and burning houses and grain, and doing all kinds of evil.

They themselves and the grain provided by the Song people, so naturally they had no scruples and concentrated on sabotage.

But Jiaozhi couldn't persist in such a troublesome way, because Jiaozhi Li Dynasty relied on these grains to feed.

The loss of the north also made Li Yanghuan lose the support of the Jiangnan gentry of the Great Song Dynasty, because their food and materials could not be obtained at all. Now in his current situation, he has almost no way out.

Compared with the ambition when he just usurped the throne, Li Yanghuan at this moment looked very melancholy and even depressed.

At this moment, a servant walked into the door, bowed his head and whispered, "Your Majesty, the Cham is here and is asking to see you outside the palace." ”

Today, in the palace, a group of people who Li Yanghuan hated very much were ushered in. The greed and ferocity of these people make Li Yanghuan, a father-killer bird like Li Yanghuan who kills people of the nine clans at every turn, look down on them, they are Cham pirates.

The Cham pirates, who practiced Brahmanism, treated their captives with extreme cruelty. They also liked to plunder the Song and Jiaozhi people as slaves, whipping and killing them at will, and buying and selling them as goods at will.

These pirates cut off several shipping lanes in the South China Sea and made a fortune, but their stupidity lies in the fact that they only know how to rob but do not know how to use them.

Hundreds of years later, there was a man named Zheng Zhilong, who also occupied this position, but used this place to engage in port and sea trade, and was once rich and rivaled the country.

The Cham people are different, they belong to the place where this channel is locked up and becomes a place of death that everyone fears.

The South China Sea was supposed to be a golden place for maritime merchants to gather, but it was disturbed by this group of rat droppings.

Li Yanghuan stood up, short and a bit like a Dongying man, thought for a while, and said, "Let the Song people Gu Beihai and the minister of the country come together." ”

In a side hall of the imperial city of the Li Dynasty, Li Yanghuan, Du Wan, and Gu Beihai each sat on a futon, and after a while, a few strangely dressed Chams came in from outside the hall.

These people are very similar to the Tianzhu people, most likely a group exiled from the Indian continent, and after seeing Li Yanghuan, they saluted very respectfully.

"The foreign minister will gather tea and meet His Majesty the Emperor of the Li Dynasty."

Li Yanghuan was a little satisfied in his heart, and motioned for the waiter to give him a seat.

"Now, the Great Song Dynasty is invading our Li Dynasty, and for so many years, the Han people have often wanted to conquer Jiaozhi, but they have not been able to do so. The soldiers of the Li Dynasty were not afraid to fight with the Song people, and even wanted to take revenge on the Northern Expedition and enter the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, which was a shame for violating for no reason. ”

Although what he said was out of the blue, Pan Luocha was sneering in his heart, the Cham people occupied the South Island, and they were still unclear about the situation?

Obviously, the Li Dynasty army was preparing to invade the Great Song Dynasty from the north, and was severely beaten by others and killed outside Thang Long City. also supported the queen mother of the person in front of him, creating the division of the Li Dynasty today.

His face was as respectful as ever, and the purpose of his coming today was also very clear, if the Jiaozhi people wanted the materials of the Great Song gentry, they had to transport them by sea.

Li Yanghuan must have hoped that the Cham people would not rob, or even help, and the Cham people felt that it was understandable, it depended on what kind of price they were willing to offer.

Li Yanghuan chattered for a long time, but Pan Luocha and his subordinates didn't listen to it at all, and the two groups of people had their own ghosts.

The conversation between the two sides was very subtle, and everyone kept silent about the matter, but boasted about their strength.

Finally, Gu Beihai couldn't stand it anymore and said: "If you transport grain from the sea, I don't know if you can cooperate?" ”

"What's in it for you?" Since it is clear to talk about it, the Cham who was originally inkblot is terrible, and suddenly he is reluctant to say half a word of nonsense.

"Defeat the southern part of the Li Dynasty and let the Cham people plunder for two months!" Li Yanghuan said coldly.

The three groups of people got together to negotiate, very happily, and they didn't know what kind of monster force was about to rise in the South China Sea.

PS: It's 2020 soon, here I will give you a greeting for the early years, and there is still 42 of our "The First Righteous Gentleman of the Great Song Dynasty" that are all booked to be high-quality. The small goal I set for myself at the beginning of the year is to have a high-quality book in 2019, and I hope you will support it, especially the little brother who watches pirated copies, and come and subscribe to it. The last step is really uncomfortable if I can't take it.

This book has been ordered for more than 2,000 people, but there has never been a big recommendation... It's not even as good as the recommendation given by 500 subscribed books, and to be honest, it's really not easy to get to this point. People who have never written a book will not know how difficult it is to rise to this level without a recommendation, and thank you very much for the silver crowdfunded, which can be said to be the biggest exposure. Also, this year, I must thank Feng Meng, liveaben, unyielding brother, Ah Mao, Garfield and other big brothers and mink for their tips, which gave me some confidence. There are also a few managers in the group, without these stupid hangings, I might have become popular a long time ago, but I still thank you. After all, you don't have merit or hard work, but at least you have made a personal scene, and you have a high sense of presence.

At the end of the year, thank you again for the book friends who have accompanied you in the group this year, although most of you are poor and arrogant, and your temper is still big, and almost all of you have scolded me, but I still want to thank you for your company, sincerely. I've also added a lot of groups, but there are only these two of my own, and the atmosphere is my favorite, because we're the same kind of people, poor and poor love to joke, can afford to joke, long live the hair!

Happy New Year!
