readx;?“ Zhou Jinfeng asked us to prepare 10,000 taels of silver as compensation, and at the same time withdraw from Dongfang Port and hand over all the Wu Dynasty from the ** public, so that we can leave safely, otherwise there will be a ...... of the imperial court and the heavenly army" Speaking of this, Li Zhe's nose shrugged, this I head who has been working in the science and technology department now has a super low sense of existence, you must know that with the scale of Dongfang Port getting bigger and bigger, the utilization rate of his I department is getting less and less. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info☆☆m~ Wonderful~Oriental~Literature~☆☆{To see the latest chapters, please go to:}, please search (Pin% book¥¥ net) to see the most complete! The fastest updated novelAlthough the server of the I department is still faithfully providing all kinds of scientific and technological information for the various query terminals of the veterans every day, the people in the science and technology department are still inadvertently "seconded" by the executive committee and then do not come back.

Li Zhe felt very worried about this situation - whether it was called a cunning rabbit and a dead lackey, or a donkey was unloaded, this is the current situation. In view of the fact that there is always a certain terminal for querying materials in the database of the big library in this time and space, and it is absolutely impossible to produce it in a few decades, it is very unwise to spend the precious human resources of the Senate in this department that will obviously die out slowly, Li Zhe also knows this, but he is not convinced, the entire knowledge treasure house of Dongfang Port is stored in his server, which is quite cheap, why did he start cutting the wool of the science and technology department? He had always been dissatisfied with the situation, but there was nothing he could do, and today his tech department was inexplicably given a job that he didn't know how it would be his turn - translating the letters brought by Li Xijue.

Xiao Seal is not a problem, scan it into a document with a scanner, and then convert it into Song style, you can know what words are written, and it is not difficult for all kinds of high-tech computer equipment and almost all-powerful auxiliary software in the old time and space to do this. But it's not difficult to know what words are, it's difficult to know what these words say, Zhou Jinfeng frantically quoted ancient books and sentences in it to show off his talents, all kinds of quotations and classics, and all kinds of book bags, which tortured Li Zhe so much that he almost pulled out all the hair on his head. This kind of letter, which seems to be all Chinese but can't be read alive, can't be translated at all...... Fortunately, his wife Jiang Yan learned about this "impossible task" and gave him a very interesting idea - directly from the education mouth to call a few children who had passed the township examination to translate for him, and then there are still one or two talents in the Oriental Port, although this kind of bookbag letter seems incomprehensible in the eyes of the elders, but these "intellectuals" who have been cultivated under this kind of educational measures since childhood have no big problems with this kind of letter, at least they know what they are talking about.

Therefore, the translated letter in Li Zhe's hand is the result of the work of several naturalized people who worked as cultural teachers in the education mouth, he wiped his nose, and didn't know how to say the following words, "Everyone should watch it as a joke first, anyway, what Zhou Jinfeng said is that if the imperial army arrives, it will be able to erase us from this world, and there will be no powder." Saying that, Li Zhe looked up at the embarrassed expressions on the faces of everyone present and continued, "He said that he is usually taken care of by us, and he doesn't want to see us suffer losses under the imperial court army, let alone ......."

"He's afraid that we won't pay him in the future, right?" Xiao Jing looked depressed, "Meow a cat, spent a lot of money to raise a disobedient dog." ”

"It's a bit of a headache, as soon as the Imperial Army comes," Paradigm said with a smile, "I don't know if our prisoner of war camp can fit it." ”

"Hahahaha" The elders present laughed.

After the science of the distant branch of the enemy by the secret of the month not

"I said let's just pay some money to avoid disasters and see if we can buy this land, even if it's rented. This battle really can't be fought. The style of these words was very different, and everyone was stunned, and they all turned their heads to look at it, and it was Sun Wenbin who spoke. Yang Minghuan couldn't help but twitch his face, "Old Sun, what do you mean by this?" Shall we admit it? ”

"No, that's not what I meant." Sun Wenbin hurriedly said and waved his hand, "I mean that there is a shortage of our food again, do you remember the last time there was a shortage?" Just in the battle of Zhancheng Port, we had no source of food, so we could only buy grain from the rich households of An Yun. Now that the price of grain in Anyun is rising, it is obvious that the landlords do not have much surplus grain in their hands. As he spoke, he stood up and took out a small notebook from his body, flipped through it, and said, "This matter is very tricky, if it is only the former naturalized people and refugees from Champa Port, this food is enough to ensure that it can be eaten until around winter." But isn't this the Ito Army, which has more than 20,000 men? The more than 20,000 of them alone will eat 3670 tons of grain in a month, and our current grain reserves will be starving until September at most. ”

"Don't we have that much land?" "Yes, we have also contracted so much farmland in the Anyun area. It can't be that there is no harvest, right? "Someone immediately started asking questions. Sun Wenbin stuffed the notebook back into his pocket, sat down and said, "Don't be in a hurry to see how much harvest there may be in the field, with the arrival of the typhoon season, we may encounter three or four typhoons, typhoons are often devastating to the crops in the field, even if most of our grain varieties are from the old world lodging resistant varieties, but they can't withstand typhoons." According to our sowing schedule, tomatoes are planted in January and February, potatoes are planted in February, March and **, cabbage is planted in April to October, and radishes are planted in March and October. ”

"Are you afraid that you won't be able to buy it if you have money?" Gu Qingqian had a disdainful expression on her face, "At this time, there are many ships waiting to enter the port off the coast of Dongfang Port, and many merchants directly transport a batch of grain over, and then exchange it for industrial products and transport it away." ”

"This estimate is difficult," Sun Wenbin shook his head, "Grain has always been a prohibited material ordered by the imperial court, and any grain that is transported to us is smuggling." As long as any country is really determined to crack down on smuggling, it will certainly be able to fight it cleanly. Once the Wu Dynasty really goes to war with us, transporting grain to us will inevitably become a serious crime, and even if the profits of our industrial products are high, the grain procurement will be seriously insufficient, and at most we will starve later. So I think it's absolutely inappropriate for us to go to war directly with the Wu Dynasty. ”

"I think so too," Bu Zhongfu said on the side, hooking everyone's curiosity, "Let's see what countries are around us first," he also pointed upwards as he spoke, "Our north is the huge Wu Dynasty, although the officialdom of the Wu Dynasty is now unbearable, but I have to admit that the Wu Dynasty is still vast after all, and there are still countless ordinary people living on it, even in the case of drought north of the Yangtze River, Jiangnan is still relatively rich." Even after the Manchu Qing Dynasty captured the north of the Yangtze River, the Southern Ming still survived for decades; To the west and south is Annam, and North Annam will not be kind to us, because we directly accepted the former emperor Nguyen Phuc Yuan of South Annam, and even accepted the former princess Nguyen Yao as an honorary veteran; Not to mention South Annan, who was able to draw out the South Bank Army, the backbone of the country, to attack us, which means that they have expressed their absolute dissatisfaction with us sleeping soundly on their pillows; To the east, although there is an endless ocean, but the ocean is occupied by Meedno, the attitude of the Medeno people towards us is already very clear, they manipulated Annan to attack us, and we also attacked their fleet with mines some time ago, causing enough losses to make their flesh ache. They must know it's our masterpiece, so the attitude of the people of Medinor towards us is definitely not much better. ”

"Don't their ships still come in every day?" Gu Qingqian asked curiously, Bu Zhongfu shook his head, "There are indeed a lot of Maidno merchant ships entering the port, but haven't you noticed that those strategic reserve-level materials are getting fewer and fewer?" I've seen the records of the port authorities, and since a few months ago, the amount of grain entering the port of Vostom, through the merchant ships of Maidno, has been decreasing, and they have been using their supplies to buy our silver for some time. ”

Saying that, Bu Zhongfu stood up and pointed upwards again, "We only have four directions, the three directions of the southeast, the west and the west are all enemies with malicious intentions towards us, and the best ones have no good intentions. We are now left with a possible friend to the north, and that friend has the world's largest food-growing region, and a great deal of wealth to be grabbed, not to mention a vast land. ”

"We have Annan," Du Yande said with some displeasure, "We can easily defeat Annan, this has been confirmed, we can fight city by city to the south, fight one piece and build another, why should we be inferior to a hundred-legged insect like Wu Chao, who is dead but not stiff?" ”

"In order for us to make better use of resources," Liu Yeqiang said and lifted his glasses, "Bu Zhongfu has made it very clear just now, you see that our three aspects, southeast and west, are all enemies, and it is absolutely impossible to get enough food from them, even if we occupy a place, it will take time to take over local resources, right?" Planting and development takes time, right? Our problem is that we don't have the time, and we don't have the talent to manage the new region. As he spoke, he pointed to the dozens of elders in the room who were holding a meeting and said, "We only have more than 500 senators, more than 500 people, and even this Dongfang Port is not satisfied. If we dig a new area to the south, whether it is the mayor of the new city, the medical department, the manpower, the military defense, everything needs to be our patriarchs, it will be too busy at all, and at that time, the greater the place occupied, the greater our own losses. ”

"That's what it means," Xiao Mingwei nodded in agreement, "It has been said in the "Theory of War" that the law of the offensive will gradually weaken, to put it simply, that is, with the advance of the battle line, the attacking side needs to defend more and more occupied areas and vital rear lines of communication, and the number of troops used is increasing, and the troops used for the first line are gradually decreasing, on the contrary, the defending side gradually concentrates its forces with the shortening of the battle line, so there are more and more troops on the front line, so with the comparison of the frontline forces of the two sides, Once the defender is outnumbered by the attacker, he can launch a counterattack, turning the tide of battle. In other words, if the attacker's attack exceeds the limits of its own strength, it will suffer defeat. We can win a war, but we are nowhere near strong enough to win a war, let alone a war that is fought on four fronts at the same time. How could the Germans have been strong back then? If you take on the whole world on your own, you will be completely defeated in the end. So I think we need a friend, and it's always better to have one more friend than one more enemy. ”

"That's right, I think Uncle Xiao is right." Yang Minghuan nodded, "Then what do you think of the attitude towards the Wu Dynasty?" Vote, and the veterans who are willing to go to war with the Wu Dynasty please raise their hands. ”

Only a few people raised their hands. Yang Minghuan recorded it for a while, and then said, "Then let's negotiate with the Wu Dynasty, we will try to ask for more things with the Wu Dynasty." ”

"Something more?" Bu Zhongfu laughed, "This is too difficult, the Wu Dynasty belongs to the Heavenly Empire, for those of us who are 'pirates', it would be good if we didn't belittle us and let us get out, and if you want to ask them for something, this is very difficult." ”

"That's not what I said," Gu Qingqian also retorted with a smile, "Brother Bu, although the Wu Dynasty is the upper kingdom of the Celestial Empire, it also has shortcomings, the officials of the Wu Dynasty almost don't understand the economic aspect at all, and the most important thing for them is to be able to put silver in their pockets and be able to have merit." We don't want money, whether it is gold, silver or copper, if it is only left in the vault of the Oriental Port, then it will always be just a dead thing, only when it is circulated, they are money. What we want the Wu Dynasty to accept now is not how much money we are given, but to allow us to trade with them, hire workers, and recognize our legitimacy. ”

"And the right to issue currency!" Shui Wangtai almost jumped, "This is very important, as long as you can hold the right to issue currency in your hands, you can do anything." ”

"Don't we have the right to issue currency ourselves? Dongfang Port has long begun to use our own silver coins, and Annam and Guangxi have begun to have our own stamped silver coins, and the common people also recognize the face value of our silver coins. Du Yande looked confused again, "Whether they admit it or not, we are all issuing currency, why should they admit it?" ”
