"I haven't told the people on the island yet, there have been a lot of things on Hong Kong Island these days, and General Zhao hasn't been to the city for two days. Did Master Zhang mean to invite General Zhao to come? After all, these horses were brought back by General Zhao, and General Zhao should be notified if something happens. ”

Zhang Zhensun held his seal in his hand, and then a vermilion mark fell on the corner of the painting, and after blowing it gently, he looked at Wang Daofu's solemn expression and laughed softly.

"Lord Wang, aren't you going to light a fire, the last time Liu Changhai beat Qian Kang, he already had a grudge. General Zhao's mind is exquisite, if you go to inform him again, won't you be borrowing someone's hand! In that case, General Zhao will finish reading us, can't so many people in the government solve this problem? ”

Wang Daofu then said: "What then? Just let it go? The beaten horse breeding colonel had a wound on his face, if he didn't have a proper handling opinion, Ling Zhen might not be able to suppress the matter, and he would have to make a bigger basket. ”

"That's it, wait another day, you go back and suppress Ling Zhen, and tomorrow I will go to the court to discuss the matter, and see what this Qian Kang has in mind!"

"Master Zhang, wouldn't that be another way to discuss the transfer of military power, even if it drags on like this, I always feel that this Qian Kang has bad intentions, and the military power is handed over to Jiang Maotong, will there be any big basket?"

Zhang Zhensun sighed and said, "What can happen?" Our soldiers were originally fighting hard, mainly based on the local township army, supplemented by the defeated soldiers from the north, and it was nothing to hand over to Jiang Maotong. You know that what I am thinking about now is not whether to hand over the military power or not, but the real purpose of their coming to Guangzhou, according to my estimation there is an eighty percent chance that Zhang Shijie and Lord Lu will set the capital in Guangzhou. ”

Wang Daofu was taken aback, he also felt strange about Qian Kang and his party coming, but he really didn't think about Dingdu.

"Ahh In Guangzhou? There are enemy troops on three sides, we can only defend the city now, dare not be careless, if there is another accident in the passage of the sea, blocked by the fleet of the Yuan soldiers going south, then we will be a lonely city without danger to defend! ”

"Leizhou, Qiongzhou Island, Zhanjiang and other places are still in the hands of the imperial court, if you just say that the capital, which place is much safer than in Guangzhou, unless, unless it is ......" Zhang Zhensun suddenly sounded the letter he wrote to Lu Xiufu, but emphasized that the firearms battalion led by Zhao Tianyou is the foundation of Guangzhou's city defense, is it ......

Zhang Zhensun's face was solemn, he didn't dare to think about it anymore, could it be that the letter that should be his own was seen by someone with a heart, and he was moved by the Hongyi cannon on the head of Guangzhou. If there is this possibility, then wouldn't it be that I betrayed Zhao Tianyou, but Lu Xiufu's character is no problem, how can there be anyone?

"Lord Wang, prepare a boat, I want to go to Hong Kong Island, and personally go to visit General Zhao!"

Wang Daofu wondered: "Didn't you just say that we shouldn't trouble General Zhao?" ”

"It's urgent, leave immediately, and talk about it on the road!"

The planning of Hong Kong Island now seems to be very out of tune, with a piece of east and west lanes, and it takes a lot of effort to build wide and smooth roads, but anyone who has seen the future planned by Zhao Tianyou is afraid that his jaw will have to hit the surface of his feet.

Logistics zones, industrial zones, technical research, training, learning and teaching have begun to take shape, the planned commercial and trade zones occupy the largest area, and military barracks dormitories and other houses for people to live in are built in a neat and orderly manner. The waters of the Dapu Sea are calm, each functional area has its own wharf, and there are already small ferries dedicated to crossing the sea, providing services to the island's residents and traders for nothing.

What is the basis for the development of modern Hong Kong? Tax-free! With this unparalleled condition, it has become a very important part of the world economy and trade, and has also created the beautiful legend of the Pearl of the Orient.

What does Quanzhou Port rely on? Pu Shougeng spent 30 years of hard work to transfer more than ninety percent of the overseas trade from Guangdong to Fujian, making Quanzhou rich.

In the heyday of Quanzhou Port, it was the prosperous scene of the Wanbang Dynasty, the foreign merchant ships on the sea had to line up to enter the port, and you may not be able to unload the goods for half a month when it was crowded, and the value of goods entering and leaving the port every day was hundreds of millions.

The economic scale of the Southern Song Dynasty accounted for 75% of the world at that time, and the population was only 15% of the world's population, what is the concept? Since then, no country has had such a large share of the economy, including the current economic powerhouse, which is even much larger than the European Union, which is made up of several countries.

Zhao Tianyou decided to give Hong Kong Island free trade status in advance, build a large-scale special trade zone, trade for free and only collect land rent, and planned to send ships out to the sea to intercept passing merchant ships to trade here. Begin to use extraordinary means to drain traffic, and when the businessmen who do business taste the sweetness of tax exemption, they don't need you to publicize it, they will be like sharks that smell blood, and they can't get rid of it.

Because Zhao Tianyou's prestige in Guangzhou was quite high, some large-scale trading houses had already rushed to the pre-booked shops and warehouses in advance when they heard that there was duty-free maritime trade, that is, they had collected a lot of rent in advance, otherwise they would not even be able to afford the wages of the bricklayers and carpenters by relying on the silver on the island alone.

Zhang Zhensun and Wang Daofu wore straw hats and sat in a small speedboat rowed by eight people, and quickly boarded the Dapuhai Wharf, and when they got off the boat, they beckoned people to lead the way and ask to see Zhao Tianyou. Wang Daofu is nothing, he has been here a few times, and he has long been immune to the rapid development of Hong Kong Island, but Zhang Zhensun has only heard that today is the first time to land on the legendary Hong Kong Island.

"Oh my God! Why are the houses here like this, this road is so wide and clean, and the hill over there is also a Hongyi cannon? ”

Zhang Zhensun is like a child who leaves home for the first time to see the world, and he can't hold back his mouth to ask questions, without waiting for Wang Daofu to answer, his attention turned to the other side, losing the majesty of a feudal official!

"My lord, let's go see General Zhao first, when it's okay for a while, they have a special tour guide here, who is responsible for guiding and introducing the scenery of the island!" Wang Daofu felt uncomfortable all over his body, especially the little soldiers on the two islands next to him, and the smile on his face was even more embarrassing.

"Okay, I have to let Zhao Tianyou personally guide me in a while!"

Zhang Zhensun, who was not enough to make his eyes, stabilized his mind, got into the four-wheeled carriage that picked up and dropped off the guests, and was suddenly attracted by the smooth and light carriage, exploring up and down, wanting to discover the mystery.

"My lord, my lord, my lord, Mr. Zhang, sit down first, and then talk about it later!"

When Wang Daofu made this carriage for the first time, he was also deeply attracted by him, but when he saw Zhang Zhensun's performance, he also felt a little proud in his heart. Fortunately, I was shocked in my heart and didn't show it, why is our Lord Zhang so uncalm, and he has already become like this before he sees the really powerful place.
