The conversation between them did not last long, and after all, there were still Datang officials waiting outside.

But its influence was unexpectedly far-reaching, even on the way to Quanzhou, everyone gathered in a boat, and never talked about it again.

Even Aimar and Nasir don't know the secrets, as if similar topics have been avoided by those in the know.

When passing through Fuzhou, it was dawning, and he did not get off the ship after docking, but picked up Huang Chengli, the assassin of Fuzhou, and immediately set off.

Fuzhou is less than 400 miles from Quanzhou, and it arrived before noon that day.

At that time, Quanzhou was in the early stage of development, and in the following 100 years, Quanzhou's overseas transportation and trade further developed, and there was a grand occasion of "people from ten continents in the market".

This cross is not a specific number, but an approximate number that represents many, which originates from the poet Bao He in the Xuanzong period of the Tang Dynasty "Sending Quanzhou Li Envoy Jun to the Appointment".

At that time, although Quanzhou had not yet developed into the largest port in ancient China in the Song Dynasty, because foreign merchants favored Chinese porcelain, tea, etc., there were people from all over the world, which showed that Quanzhou was prosperous.

But at this time, the situation is only similar to Hangzhou, far from reaching the grand scene of Guangzhou City, but there are countless merchants coming and going, and foreign faces can be seen everywhere on the streets of Jingang.

Li Zhi integrated it with the two ports of Fuzhou in advance, precisely because the five prefectures of Fuzhou, Quanzhou, Jianzhou, Tingzhou, and Zhangzhou (now Fujian Province) were separated from Lingnan Road and assigned to Jiangnan East Province during the Kaiyuan Dynasty.

Quanzhou thus entered a prosperous period, even after the end of the Tang Dynasty five dynasties of the feudal towns, the end of the two Song Dynasty, the Jin and Yuan successively entered the Central Plains, and the north was repeatedly caught in wars, and it has been relatively stable here.

Even from the Tang Dynasty to the early Qing Dynasty, Quanzhou's economic development has been developed overseas.

At that time, its geographical location was better than that of Guangzhou, so that before the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, Haibo was listed as a native of Quanzhou, and to trade with foreign countries, you could go to the sea by boat from Quanzhou Port.

Even the calculation of the maritime distance between various countries and ancient China is based on the port of Quanzhou.

Including peanuts and tobacco introduced from the Americas in the Ming Dynasty, Quanzhou is also regarded as the first area to be introduced.

Why is Quanzhou named after Quanzhou? This matter involves the problem of mountains and rivers.

Its main mountain is Qingyuan Mountain in the northern suburbs, because there is milky white spring water flowing out of the clear and cold water between the stone holes on the mountain, so it is called "Qingyuan", also known as "Quanshan", and the name of the state is derived from the name of the mountain.

As soon as Li Yixing's fleet arrived at the port, there was a long line of welcome waiting at the front of the port area.

The leader is the Lingnan Dao Jiedu envoy Mi Rui Mi Yuanzhong, and Quanzhou Thorn Shi Gan Xiuming.

Among the officials next to the two, Li Zhi unexpectedly found another old acquaintance, Gan Yinghao, the head of another big family in Guangzhou City.

It is not surprising that Mi Rui is here, and in the near future, the Lingnan Provincial Administration Office will be moved to Guangzhou, and Ezhou will be classified as Jiangnan Province.

The situation in Mingzhou had also changed drastically before, and Mi Rui, who was in Guangzhou, naturally heard that he didn't need a subsequent imperial decree, and he also knew that the next stop of Li Yixing was in Quanzhou.

Before getting off the boat, Aimar jokingly said to Li Zhiban: "It seems that we are going to enjoy very high treatment in Quanzhou again!" ”

Along the way, except for the first two days in Mingzhou, they were all ceremoniously received, so there is such a saying.

Li Zhile said: "There is the Lingnan Road Festival so that Mi Rui is here, compared to us staying here for one or two days, Guangzhou is more colorful than here, it is better to save time to stay there for more time!" ”

Not only the guests were moved, but also the ladies behind them were looking forward to it, even though they had just returned.

Pang sighed and said, "I haven't tasted the snack street twice when I pass there, and Ibn's grandfather's shop hasn't been to either!" ”

"I just admit to eating, and my little body can't eat enough!" Yi Yi said with a smile.

Kiyoki is happy to expose her

"Aren't you the same yourself?" Among the five of us, Afifa has his part, and none of the others can say anything! ”

Huang Chengli, who was not far away, reminded the girls: "The braised duck here is a must, and Princess Afeifa can also eat it." There is a Tai Qinglou that is the most famous, and I asked the Thorn Shifu to book a few tables there! ”

Talking and laughing, when the docking was completed, everyone got off the boat in a mighty manner, and naturally there was a lot of etiquette and confusion for a while.

After arranging for the guests to stay, Li Zhi led several main figures to rush to the Thorn History Mansion, and at this time, it was almost noon, and the others rushed to Taiqing Tower in advance.

Not long after everyone sat down, Gan Yinghao, who came with Mi Rui, explained that he knew that Gan Xiuming, the assassin of Quanzhou, was his biological brother, the second in line.

Because the Gan family in Guangzhou is also a semi-cultivator family, Gan Xiuming also has a physical cultivation, but his qualifications are not very good, and he has entered the first-level hunting division in front of him.

However, this kind of cultivation can also allow him to perform miraculous feats in the army, and with the help of the Gan family to move around, he can be regarded as an achievement in the power of the director side at the age of less than forty.

At present, he is most concerned about the merger of the ports of Fuzhou and Quanzhou, and Li Zhi deliberately bypassed this place before, so that Gan Xiuming has a lot of wishes and cannot react directly to Li Zhi.

It was not easy to catch Li Zhi today, so he naturally had to talk about it.

Prior to this, in fact, Huang Chengli had revealed that in principle, Quanzhou is welcome, after all, Fuzhou Port is the first batch of ports to be established, although it is not as good as Quanzhou at present, but the traditional shipbuilding heritage there is still there.

Of course, Gan Xiuming's wish is not based on personal considerations, but because he wants Fuzhou Port to separate some foreign ships from the port, and Quanzhou also hopes to use the Fuzhou shipyard to support the development of the local shipbuilding industry.

In addition, there are some fragmentary and cumbersome affairs that are not entangled, and after listening patiently, Li Zhi did not reply directly, but asked whether there was a similar existence like Magpie Island in the offshore waters of Quanzhou Port.

It also puts forward the most detailed understanding requirements for all parties with vested interests in the port industry.

Although Quanzhou is about 1,400 miles away from Guangzhou, because it is the nearest two large ports, Gan Xiuming knows what happened in Guangzhou quite clearly.

Li Zhi asked this, he knew what he meant, of course he would answer honestly, otherwise he would find out what this person would find out later, and it would not be useful to have the Gan family in Guangzhou.

Quanzhou Port is actually a bit chaotic, which is why Gan Xiuming invited his brother Gan Yinghao.

The situation here is similar to that of Guangzhou and Fuzhou, because the center of the imperial court has not yet officially moved eastward to the south, and the coastal range of 2,000 miles is still far away from the Tiangao Emperor.

Although the port of Quanzhou is not as chaotic as the port of Guangzhou, the participation of local forces in the operation of the port is very common.

This situation has existed for more than a year or two, and even existed during the first two assassinations of Gan Xiuming.

Due to the special geographical advantages, Quanzhou at this time has not yet reached the peak of the Song and Yuan dynasties, but the prototype of the oriental port and cultural capital has appeared.

As early as the Sui Dynasty, two of Muhammad's beloved disciples, the Three Sages and the Four Sages, crossed the ocean and came to Quanzhou to spread Islam, leaving behind the earliest historical relics of Islam introduced to ancient China, which is a clear example.

Because of this, there is far earlier than other regions of Tianzhu Buddhism settled, saved the Qin King Li Shimin, one of the "Thirteen Stick Monks" of Songshan Shaolin Temple, Zhikong Zen Master traveled here, and chose the foothills of Qingyuan Mountain to build a large-scale South Shaolin Temple.

Therefore, the Fuzhou port issue has a long history and is deeply rooted, and it is by no means possible for the incumbent Gan Xiuming to completely intervene.

The confusion of his cumbersome affairs comes from the hatred of the same enemy among the dozen or so forces.

Regarding the situation of Magpie Island that Li Zhi was worried about, Gan Xiuming had not heard of it.

Li Zhi pondered for a long time, and asked him to list the names of more than a dozen forces in the port, but did not give his plan.

The reason is that only this month ago, after Gan Xiuming learned about the situation, he belonged

The strength under his own name was withdrawn from the port.

In other words, this person was actually among the dozen or so forces before, and Li Zhi couldn't just listen to his family's words, and he needed to explore it on his own.

Seeing this situation, Gan Yinghao's face was unnatural for a moment, even if it was fleeting, it was still felt by Li Zhi, and his heart was even more determined in his heart.

Although the Guangzhou Gan family is related to the Qiguan family, after the great changes in the family pattern in the city, it has become the only large family under the Qiguan family in one fell swoop, which is much stronger than the Bei family.

But Li Zhi slaughtered nearly twenty families or forces frantically day and night, including three first-level grandmaster realms, no matter how strong the Gan family was in Guangzhou, they didn't dare to provoke him at all.

However, when he saw Gan Yinghao on the boat, he had already guessed something, even if his person did not come in person, as long as Gan Xiuming did not cause the anger of the heavens and people, Li Zhi did not plan to do anything against him, not to mention that this person had already withdrawn in advance.

But he didn't want to reveal the truth too early, even if he had already gotten acquainted with Gan Yinghao, there was still a face problem between the Qi official family and the Bei family.

Otherwise, it will be easily solved this time, and Gan Xiuming will inevitably have a pampered and arrogant mentality, maybe when he leaves the city, this person will make a comeback.

Li Zhi did not care about the participation of local forces in port affairs, just like the situation after the governance of Guangzhou Port, with these forces, it was easier to strengthen management.

However, as a local official, it is very easy to get involved in it, and it is very easy to create a situation of dominance.

In the oligarchic situation, situations such as smuggling by sea are most likely to occur, and Li Zhiwan cannot tolerate this.

At this moment, the Mahdi envoy and others, the symbolic visit was almost carried out, because he had his own thoughts, Li Zhi immediately took the initiative to say goodbye, and postponed the banquet from the Assassin's Mansion to the evening.

When they came to Tai Qinglou, Huang Chengli's people had already wrapped up the entire second floor.

The recognition here is not only more than 100 people from the Abdul royal family, but also dozens of people such as Rahman, Nasser, and Goli who came together, so there are about 200 people on the second floor.

Before they came, Li Zhi and the others were happy, obviously before they arrived, they had inquired about the famous local snacks.

On the table at this time, there are all kinds of daily snacks such as beast turtles, white rice turtles, bowl cakes, salty rice dumplings, taro fruits, Lantern Festival pills, orange red cakes, mung bean cakes, and tender cakes.

After sitting down, I realized that it was not easy to put together these small snacks on the street at one time, because they were made by ordinary families and eaten on weekdays.

As for the noodles on the street, they are all lo mein, fried oysters, beef soup, gypsum, noodle paste, bamboo shoot jelly, Chongwu fish rolls, ginger ducks, etc., of course, lo mein, Chongwu fish rolls, and Wagyu beef soup do not appear here.

For example, beef, fish, etc., Muslims need to watch the slaughter before they eat it.

Obviously, it is full of all kinds of food, which is uniformly procured by the people in the Assassin's Mansion, and they know that those are local characteristics.

The finished braised duck here is generally only about 1 catty, all of which are slaughtered on the spot, dehydrated, degreased, roasted out of the color golden yellow and translucent red, bright, poured with ingredients, lubricated and flowing juice, the marinade is overflowing, and a group of people are smiling happily.

Fu Chen had already rubbed his hands together and quickly participated, but he had to leave him and go to the back kitchen by himself, obviously thinking of stealing some exclusive configuration methods.

I didn't think that at a certain moment, Fu Chen suddenly put down the whole braised duck he was gnawing in his hand, walked towards Li Zhi extremely quickly, and whispered a few words in his ear.

It turned out that a few months ago on Magpie Island off the coast of Guangzhou Port, Li Zhi did not destroy the cave under the island, but sealed it as it was.

Among them is to let Fu Chen secretly leave a few wisps of breath, his special identification method is the scent tracking technique, which has the ability to perceive subtleties that others do not have, in order to wait for them to leave, to see if they can know who has entered the investigation.
