Chapter 1035 The Uncherished Land (Part I)

This is Changhua Army Tengqiao Town, there used to be a name called Danzhou (County), Xining six years (AD 1073), "Danzhou" was abandoned, changed to Changhua Army, the original Changhua County administrative team was merged into Tengqiao Town.

"I've been here," Zhao Xing strolled along the Lunjiang River, pointing around and pondering.

"You?" Pu Yi'an asked in disbelief: "Didn't you say that it was the first time you went to Nanyang?" How did you come here? Is it in a dream? ”

"Not a dream...... Walking along this river, inside is the original Danzhou County, now the Changhua Army Military Headquarters. The land under our feet was originally where the Changhua army was located......"

Pu Yi'an's eyes widened: "It turns out that you have really been here, when?" ”

"Hyundai!" Zhao Xing silently said this word in his heart. Now, this is Yangpu Port, one of the three deep-water ports in Hainan, and he still remembers that not far from here is Dongpo Academy. But he couldn't say this, so he had to be silent.

In Pu Yi'an's eyes, Zhao Xing has always seemed unfathomable. Now that the other party didn't say anything, he thought about it for a while, then gave up the question, and said to himself, "This is the first time I have climbed this place...... Look, it's desolate and pitiful, and I've heard that the place where the Changhua army has stayed is like locusts crossing the border, and now this locust-plagued land can't feed them, so they seized Danzhou County and threw their original land to the town. ”

"Isn't that better?" Zhao Xing sneered slightly: "Is there a better deep-water port near here than this town?" The Changhua Army didn't want us to deal with the town-level units, which reduced a lot of trouble...... Haha, wonderful, wonderful! ”

Pu Yi'an glanced around, and there were several villagers gathered there in the distance, pointing at them, Jin Fuji and the others were already on full alert, holding their swords tightly and guarding behind them. Pu Yi'an shook his head slightly: "It's ...... It's a place of criminals and fugitives, and the officials on the island are all criminals, or simply corrupt officials. They have been degraded to this point, and they are full of resentment, and many officials have been degraded to the point that they can't even leave the island for the rest of their lives, how can such officials have the heart to take care of government affairs - they are the easiest to buy.

However, you also have to consider the issue of food, the local Li people do not like to farm, and only live by hunting. Because the prey here is so easy to obtain, relatively speaking, farming is hard work, so the grain here is not enough for the islanders to eat, and every time during the storm season, the grain ships occasionally cannot arrive in time, and the degraded officials and Han people who are used to eating rice will go hungry.

Set up a supply base here? How many people can the dock here, and how much cargo can it turn over each year if the manpower is insufficient? What goods are available locally? Build a wharf, the goods are all produced by the mainland, if the shipment is not large, can this wharf be maintained? ”

Zhao Xing smiled very treacherously: "I only fancy its concealment - the criminal officials on the island can't leave the island for the rest of their lives, and it's the easiest to buy, so no matter how big the movement I make here, who will denounce it?"

As for the island's produce? You forgot about the cargo on my ship - frosting! It grows three times a year, making it ideal for growing sugarcane. As long as the frosting trade is in place, it's a huge profit, and it's worth it to build that dock out of gold...... How about it, want to invest? You and I will build this port, and then sit on the ground and charge fees, even if we don't run sea trade in the future, we can make money every day.

Lo and behold, I also plan to have our shipbuilding base here, so that the tropical hardwoods can be transported here for a shorter voyage and at a lower price, and from here the frosting can be transported out of the port, which can not only avoid the search of the Guangzhou Shipping Company, but also shorten the transportation distance. The important thing is that the sea freight is delivered here and then repackaged to enter the mainland...... Hehe, it's not seafood, it's a local product in Qiongzhou, and the city can't control us.

You do the math, the tax saved alone is not enough to maintain this pier! ”

Most of the people who can venture into the sea to seek wealth and nobility are people who dare to take risks, Pu Yi'an heard this temptation, and his heart was moved: "Okay, you go and get the local officials done, and ask him to allow us to build a warehouse, and I will transfer people from Quanzhou to do the preliminary work...... When we return from this trip, you and I will build this pier together. ”

"Look at me", Zhao Xing shouted at Chen Buqun: "Take my notebook and send it to Danzhou County...... No, send it to the Changhua military capital for inspection! ”

The name of the inspection of the Changhua military capital is Zhang Wan, he was from the Qingtang area to be degraded to the Changhua army, the crime is "to create incidents to harm the border, even if you die, you will not be responsible, and the edict belittles the Changhua military capital to inspect it", today, he is sitting in the back hall with Wu Yuan, the military judge who is also a degraded official, and Liu Zhuo, the inspector, is sitting in the back hall depressed.

"I'm going to die here today", Zhang Wan shouted: "Our family is used to staying in the cold place of Qingtang, I really can't stand the heat here, I'm going to die!" I'm going to die! ”

Military judge Wu Yuan and inspector Liu Zhuo are both lower than Zhang Wan's official positions, but the sympathy for the same disease made them ignore their grades, and both of them reclined on the couch, gasping for breath: "It's hot, I didn't expect that there is such a hot place in the world, and we will probably die here!" ”

The official walked in lazily and handed over a name card weakly, he was a personal soldier brought by the chief officer Zhang Wan, so he was naturally qualified to be lazy in front of Zhang Wan.

"Call up, call up!" Zhang Wan didn't look at the handbook, and shouted: "I'm waiting here every day for death, and someone will come to visit, no matter who it is, call it up for a gathering!" ”

"Huangzhou Gongshi Zhao Xing Zhao Liren, meet all the bosses", Zhao Xing respectfully saluted the three officials.

The three officials didn't even lift their buttocks, and continued to lie lazily on the couch. Zhang Wan smashed his mouth: "Strong, such a majestic man!" Huangzhou Zhao Liren, I have nothing to do with you in the past, how can I think of visiting this sinner in our family! ”

"My teacher is a monk from Dongpo, and he is also a sinner," Zhao Xing replied softly.

"Dongpo Layman...... I don't know! Zhang Wan replied in a rough voice.

"Huangzhou? East Slope? Judge Wu Yuan is a literati, he often reads the Di newspaper and knows some news that the martial artists don't know: "It is reported that there are four degraded officials in Huangzhou, and they respect the teacher's noble surname?" ”

"The family teacher's surname is Su Shishi, the word Zizhan, and the number is Dongpo Jushi......"

"Master Dasu!" Wu Yuan jumped up in shock: "Slack, slack!" Brother, please sit wide and change your clothes! ”

Zhang Wan saw Wu Yuan's astonishment, thought for a moment, and was also surprised: "But 'the old man chatted about the madness of youth, leading Huang on the left and Qingcang on the right. Brocade hat mink fur, a thousand riders roll Hiraoka's Su bachelor? ”

Liu Zhuo's question is the same: "But Master Su, who can hold the bow like a full moon, look northwest, and shoot a wolf?" ”

"Exactly!"

"Please sit wide and change your clothes!" The three of them stood up one after another and said solemnly.
