Subsequently, accompanied by Zheng Yu and Jiao Xian, Zhao Rui inspected the South City Gate, which has now become a huge dock, and the giant Shenzhou ship inside has been built according to the ship diagram except for the prototype, and the two Shenzhou are not in the port.

At the beginning, Jiao Xian was still traveling with the ship, and later his subordinates were also familiar with the route, so Jiao Xian simply let go and trained sailors in the city of Anbang Prefecture.

At this time, there are many soldiers who are swimming training in the natural inner harbor, and they swim fast as if they were white stripes in the waves.

In addition, there are many fishing boats in and out of the port, these are the original Jiaozhi soldiers, after they finished making fishing boats, they immediately became fishermen.

Anbang Prefecture is rich in products, and there is food from the city, they have food and drink, and they are paid, and they feel much more comfortable than being a soldier in Jiaozhi, and they really feel a little happy.

Zhao Rui went in to see a large house built on the shore where the fishing boat docked, and it looked like a simple aquatic product processing plant, where the catch was disemboweled, cleaned with seawater, and then touched with large grains of salt, and after being packed, it was pulled away by a pallet truck.

Zhao Rui knew that this was a sea fish that was to be shipped to other state cities immediately, so he asked Xiong San, saying that the demand in Wanya Prefecture was particularly large, and the sea fish was in short supply, and it was sold out almost instantly.

This is still very normal, Wanya Prefecture is located inland, and the mining industry is developed, the population is large, they earn wages, naturally hope to eat something good, and the uncommon sea fish has naturally become their first choice for consumption.

It seems that it is necessary to bring back some freezers from modern times, and it is estimated that these sea fish can be transported to the neighboring city after being quick-frozen, and then put into the freezer to freeze when they arrive in the neighboring city, so that they can be passed down from city to city, and the people in the territory can eat the taste of fresh sea fish.

However, Zhao Rui also understands very well that frozen fish is a noble food at that time, after all, the capacity of the freezer is limited, and it needs to be maintained by electricity, so ordinary people may not be able to afford it on weekdays.

Zhao Rui inspected it, was satisfied with the development of Anbang Prefecture, bid farewell to Xiong San and other officials, and took people back to the Dabaocheng Palace.

This trip to Thang Long can be said to be very fruitful, and after a meal, he even took five cities, among which the small towns are still counted separately.

Dabaocheng has been recruiting soldiers, and it is a crack soldier routine, and people from other state cities, whether they are Song people or Jiaozhi people, can join, but the selection criteria are stricter.

When Zhao Rui arrived at the palace, he sent someone to call Zhang Zhennan, and then set up five elite teams of 2,000 people each to take over the city defense of the five cities of Xinna, and at the same time, when they passed through Wanyazhou and Hulang, they could take away some of the musketeers, because the five cities of Xinna now are the border of Zhao Rui's forces.

Although Jiaozhi is short of troops, Zhao Rui estimates that they will never give up, because the distance is too close, it is estimated that the Chen Dynasty has a chance to breathe, and will definitely send troops to fight, which is something that does not need to be thought about.

Zhang Zhennan received the order and rushed quickly, Zhao Rui felt that his words and deeds had changed a lot now, he was a depressed champion before, but now he has become a very mature manager.

The word manager is modern, because Zhao Rui really can't find any other words to describe it, he feels like the person in charge of the overall planning of each city, and someone will come to inquire about matters at any time, and then Zhang Zhennan will make appropriate solutions.

After sending several civil officials in a row, Zhang Zhennan had time to drink tea, and then complained to Zhao Rui that he was too busy and had endless things to deal with all day and night.

Zhao Rui smiled at him, and knew in his heart that it was not easy for him, because of the conquest and development of technology, Zhao Rui was almost running outside, and Zhang Zhennan had to worry about all the big and small things in the territory, and he was really too busy to be alone.

Although Zhang Zhennan also wanted to find someone to share the burden, after all, the literati thought more about it, and they were afraid that Zhao Rui would think that he would run a party and arouse suspicion, so he insisted on it alone until now.

Zhao Rui called him to relieve his pressure, and clearly told him that he could delegate power by himself, give specific work to specific people, and implement lifelong accountability to restrain their behavior. And Zhao Rui also clearly told Zhang Zhennan that he was not as suspicious as the emperors of the Southern Song Dynasty, and his wish was to be able to manage the various cities in the territory well, so that Zhang Zhennan could develop with confidence.

After all, in the current environment, economic construction is above all else.

With Zhao Rui's affirmation and promise, Zhang Zhennan was obviously much more relaxed, and his face was also full of joy.

The two talked about the selection of officials from the five cities of Xinna, and Zhang Zhennan proposed that the few talents who came from Anbang Prefecture last time were good, and suggested that they should be the city guards of the new city.

In the Southern Song Dynasty, the military generals were also led by civilian officials as city guards, and there was nothing wrong with them, but Zhao Rui suggested that they should be the city guards first, after all, they had no experience in managing a city, which would also give them some sense of urgency, because if things were unfavorable, the position of the city guards would not be so solid, and they would be replaced by others at any time.

sent Zhang Zhennan away, Xiao Yi reported, saying that Xia Gui asked to see him first.

Zhao Rui patted his head, oh my God, I took someone's daughter-in-law out, but I forgot to bring it back, no wonder people came to look for it.

Xia Gui came in cautiously first, saluted cautiously, and then asked, "Lord Wang, I don't know where Chen Chuntang is?" I didn't see her go home. ”

"Alas, I'm sorry for you......"

Zhao Rui didn't use his identity to pressure Xia Guixian, although one was a princess of Jiaozhi and a Southern Song Dynasty general, but after all, they were together, Zhao Rui felt that it was really a sin to break up a family, so he told Xia Guixian what happened in Jiaozhi.

said that Chen Chuntang was nostalgic for the Chen Dynasty and didn't want to come back.

I thought that Xia Guixian was either depressed or depressed, but Zhao Rui was wrong, Xia Guixian was about to jump up happily.

"Hahaha! That's great! She's finally gone, hahaha! ”

Zhao Rui was stunned, and said strangely: "It is said that husband and wife are 100 days a day, why is your daughter-in-law running away, and you can still be so happy?" ”

After Xia Guixian was excited, he said with some bitterness: "Lord Wang, you can't understand such a thing, since Chen Chuntang followed me, the complaints in her mouth have not stopped for a moment, complaining that I lied to her, complaining that I don't work well, and complaining that my status is not high!" You say, just like that, a wife, who doesn't want her to roll as far as possible! ”

……

Zhao Rui was really speechless, he thought that the two of them would be able to cook a mature meal and fulfill them, but in the end, not only Chen Chuntang was unhappy, but Xia Guixian also suffered a period of torture.

Although Zhao Rui is not married yet, listening to the trivial matters between husband and wife that Xia Guixian said, it is really angry, it seems that the so-called marriage is just an appearance, and the relationship still depends on the people in it to maintain.

Thinking a little too much, Zhao Rui still felt a little guilty about Xia Guixian, so he waved his hand and said: "You go, I won't keep you anymore, continue to go back to the Southern Song Dynasty to be your general!" ”

Xia Guixian was a little incredulous, he never dreamed that Zhao Rui would let him go back, because after all, he was a close confidant of Taishi Jia Yidao, and this trip to the west was to investigate Zhao Rui, which was not good for him.

But now that Zhao Rui's power is gradually growing, how can he care about just one Southern Song Dynasty, I am afraid that they will be overwhelmed to deal with the Yuan army, and there is no manpower to deal with them at all.

As for Jia Yidao, Zhao Rui didn't even look at it, the traitorous minister accompanied by the faint king, in addition to the death of the country, what else would happen.

"If you don't want to go back, you can stay here if you want." Zhao Rui saw that Xia Guixian did not express his position immediately, and added.

"Oh, no, no, thank you, Lord Wang, I'll leave right away, I'll leave right away!"

Xia Guixian kowtowed to Zhao Rui as he spoke, thinking that although he and Jia Yidao were-for-tat, Zhao Rui's personality really didn't say, benevolence and righteousness!

Zhao Rui waved his hand to let him go, and then considered the development of the industrial revolution, after this westward trip, he also saw Angkor and the civilians of Champa in the territory of Cochin.

Champa is better, most of them are similar to Cochin, they are engaged in maritime trade, if it is not for the perennial war with Angkor, Cochin, it is estimated that their national strength will even exceed Cochin.

But because their handicraft ability was far inferior to that of the Song Dynasty, the cloth and silk of the Song Dynasty became their hard currency, and everyone was proud to be able to wear the cloth of the Song Dynasty, because the clothes they woven themselves were too unbearable.

That's right, Zhao Rui just wants to develop the handicraft industry first.

This idea was even stronger when Zhao Rui saw the commoners of Angkor.

Because the Angkor people were so well dressed that they only used a cloth around the stall, and then a large cloth was tied to it, and one arm was covered, and the other arm was so exposed that it was not any clothing at all.

Moreover, the border of Angkor is too big, there are eight or nine sizes of Cochin, and if the time comes, if the rapid textile machine is developed, the area of Angkor will be a very large market.

Xia Gui came out of the palace first, even if he walked, he took small steps, attracting the attention of passers-by, they didn't understand how happy a man was to be freed from a failed marriage, it was like being reborn!

Humming a little song, Xia Gui went back to pack up his money and gifts, bought a batch of horses in the bazaar, and then went in the direction of Lin'an City.

After several twists and turns, after more than half a month, Xia Guixian rushed to Lin'an.

When he arrived in Lin'an, Xia Guixian immediately felt like home.

That feeling of extravagance and glory, Lin'an is definitely the first in the world, and it can't be learned anywhere else!

Remembering that if you travel for too long, maybe the Taishi will be in a hurry, Xia Gui took a shower first, changed his clothes, and went to meet the Taishi Jia Yidao first.

Under the guidance of the guards of the Taishi family, Xia Gui first walked through the winding corridor, and then crossed four small bridges, eight pavilions, and five rockeries before arriving at the main hall of Jia Yidao's house.

It's just that the back garden of the Taishi's family is too big, and I heard that Jia Yidao didn't go to the palace at all, but walked through the lake near the palace.

It is now winter, and Jia Yidao's activity of playing with crickets has been changed from outdoor to indoor.

There were all kinds of people in the hall, and the voices were boiling, as if they were gambling with crickets.

Jia Yidao was shouting among the crowd, the crickets in his hands couldn't stop moving, and he was already sweating on his forehead, which could be said to be extremely devoted.
