The military government office in Yangzhou has changed the plaque, and the new ones are six gilded words of "Huaihai Xingzhongshu Province".

Cai Fengyuan, Guo Zaizhen and others were the main and deputy Xuanfu envoys of the Wuyi Army, Xu Si was the Xuanfu envoy of the Zhenshu Army, and Gu Xiu was the Sima of the Wuyi Army. In the Ya Division, Han Yu automatically relieved himself of the original role of Jiangdu County Commander and Shogunate Pusher, and was promoted to the right secretary of the province.

As for Pei Du, he was promoted to the imperial history of the Seven Rank Palace, and was the leader of the "Jingjie Division" in the four divisions of the Patrol Academy. And Ouyang Zhan, who also knew the Bijia Pavilion directly under Gao Yue with the rank of seven-rank official, became the secretary of Gao Yue's side, replacing the original position of secretary of the shogunate.

On the case of the middle hall of the Provincial Government Office, there is a fine clay model, and the two apprentices of Master Mingxuan of Huguo Temple, Guang Yi and Jie Yi, the chief monks of Runan, are giving Gao Yue and Wu Yuanheng (Liu De has not yet gotten off the car to take office) to give instructions and descriptions:

"The two prime ministers, participating in politics, now Huaiyang farmers around the mulberry trees planted in the house, has been unable to meet the needs of the weaving supervision department, so the poor monks are courageous, they first made this 'mulberry field brocade workshop' clay model, after Huaiyang large-scale promotion of Huanwang rice, Yangzhou seven counties and Chuzhou, originally due to seawater immersion and can not sow the land, as long as the weir is enclosed, it can all plant rice, plus the rest of the rice and wheat in Kyushu, people, the army will not be lacking in food, you can evenly out part of the field, build mulberry fields, cotton fields, and the weaving industry."

"Is there a standard for measuring the output of this mulberry field?" Wu Yuanheng asked.

The two monks replied that there were, usually "ten acres of 100 trees and 5 silks", that is, 100 mulberry trees can be planted on 10 acres of land, and five good silks can be obtained for raising silkworms from mulberry leaves, which is probably equivalent to the income from farming.

In order to reduce costs, the monk pointed to the model and said, the mulberry field brocade workshop is to use a large piece of land, concentrate on planting mulberry, mulberry trees can also be mixed with beans, turnips, etc., and then gather in the mulberry field and mulberry garden to rush, build a silkworm room, prepare silkworm tools, and then build a brocade workshop, set up two hundred or more looms, and there are printing and dyeing workshops: by the government, the temple hired weavers to imitate the weaving department of the Daming Palace or the internal work, the weaving, weaving, spinning, dyeing four different processes are all done, the resulting brocade satin, It can be sold domestically and overseas. As long as the mulberry field brocade workshop or cotton weaving mill is set up in the land and water accessibility, the output is large, the cost is low, and the depression effect can be formed soon, and more retail investors will continue to be absorbed, concentrated in all sides of the city silhouette weaving workshop.

In addition, such as mulberry leaves, silkworms and raw silk surplus, they can also be handed over to merchants and let them sell to retail households.

Gao Yue nodded, in the past, the brocade workshops in Chang'an and various states and counties produced goods for tribute, and now the "Sangtian Brocade Workshop" in Yangzhou is to really produce economic benefits.

"This dyeing?" Wu Yuanheng had doubts again.

The two monks said that if they dyed red, they would use safflower, which was mostly produced in Shu; If you dye purple, you will use sumac, which is mostly obtained from the trade of the South China Sea; Dyeing yellow is made of Zhemu, which is produced locally in Huaiyang; The black is dyed with oak seeds, and the land of the swallow and the Bohai Sea is the best product.

It takes some effort to dye silk, but it doesn't take any effort to dye cotton silk.

"It seems that in the future, if you don't focus on trade, you can't communicate with each other." Wu Yuanheng was deeply touched by this.

"The digging army was sent to dig the Tongling Canal, connecting Jiannan, Lingnan and my Huainan and Jiangdong lands, this is the reason." Gao Yue said.

If the brocade workshop is built and the sea-going ship trade is developed, the demand for precious coins in Huaihai Province and Jiangdong Province will become greater and greater, and copper coins alone cannot be satisfied.

This was the fundamental goal of the Takatake fleet, the second voyage to Japan.

Equipped with Si Nanzhen's navigation skills, and the improved hulls and sails hired by Hu Shang, Zhang Xi and Zhang Baogao's eighteen seagoing ships arrived at the Nudao Island of the Five Islands of the Wa Kingdom with great success, because there is an iconic lighthouse here.

Along with Zhang Baogao's boat, he also rescued a wrecked and sinking ship that hit the reef, rescued about 20 people in the meantime, and the rest of them all turned into floating corpses and drifted around along the currents on all sides of the island, which was unbearable to see.

Among the rescued monks, there was a monk who was about the same age as Zhang Baogao, and then Zhang Baogao asked the monk, "What is the Dharma name, and can you speak Tang dialect?" ”

The monk said that I was a monk on the "Tang Boat", from the Zhenweishan Temple of Hequan Country, commonly known as Zhenyu, the legal name is Kukai, ready to enter the Tang Dynasty to seek the Dharma, I have been studying the Analects, Zuo Chuan, and the Book of Poetry and the Book of Poetry together with the third prince of Japan Prince Iyo since I was fifteen years old, and then I wrote the work "Deaf and Blind Finger Return" in Chinese characters, plus Japan also has a group of naturalized Tang people - so Tang dialect, I will still speak.

Zhang Bao looked at the monk Kukai and the wreckage of the sunken ship, and he could see how backward the manufacturing technology of the ship was: the hull was a box, the sails were still netted, and there was no rudder.

"If you cross the sea in such a boat, you will die at all."

Kukai, who was soaked and shivering, opened his frozen black lips, and painfully "confessed" to Zhang Baogao: Every time the Tang envoy sails, there are four ships, each with a hundred people, but often just after Tsukushi comes to the open sea, it is either stranded or sunk, or I don't know where it drifted to. As long as you go ashore somewhere in Tangtu, it is not impossible to drift to Fuzhou, Chaozhou, and Guangzhou.

Zhang Baogao laughed heartily, patted Kuhai on the shoulder, and said: "In the future, this ocean will be managed by me on behalf of the Tang Weiguo Gong, and if you go to Tang Tu again, you will take my boat, my name is Zhang Baogao!" ”

Kuhai asked Zhang Baogao, you are from Yangzhou, how long did it take to cross the ocean to get here?

Zhang Baogao replied that it was only six days.

Kukai was silent.

The silence brought about by the crushing of technology.

Subsequently, the huge fleet of the Tang family, carrying Kukai and others who were immortal, came to Hakatatsu first.

This is because it is the gateway to and from Japan, and the location of Dazaifu, the "capital of western Japan".

Dazaifu, in fact, is a small city, it is located in the Tsukushi Mountains, imitating the Tang Dynasty's barangale system, divided into two outer Guo on the left and right, each with 12 fangs, its Chinese government hall is located in the right Guo, surrounded by the Tibetan Division, the Taxation Division, the Medicine Division, the Craftsman Division, the City Gate Division, the Instrument Staff Division, the Anti-Human Soldiers and Horses, the Main Ship Office, the Dyeing Office, the Paper Office and other institutions, a sparrow is small, the style of the five organs is complete.

If Zhang Xi and Zhang Baogao wanted to further enter the Seto Inland Sea, go to Nambatatsu, and negotiate directly with the Wa Imperial Court, they had to obtain permission from Dazaifu first.

Today's Dazai Shuai is Fujiwara Yutomo, who is a Japanese Nayan, and he saw Zhang Xi and Zhang Baogao actually coming with Kukai Monk in the national mansion, so he asked Kukai in surprise: "Fang Qicheng, Saeki Zhenyu, how did you suddenly return?" ”
