Chapter 500: The archway should be erected
"Ladies and gentlemen, please see, the shipyard that was originally located in the upper reaches of Guangzhou Port is going to be retained and expanded, if a few people also want to get involved in shipbuilding, the lord is encouraged, and a few places are reserved for the construction of the shipyard. At the same time, a new shipyard will be built under the jurisdiction of the Yamen of the Municipal Shipping Department. The existing port will not be left for the time being, and the channel will be re-excavated and dredged ten miles downstream from the current Guangzhou port to build a new port.
At the same time, in order not to disturb the nearby people to go out to fish, the new port and the old port should also be excavated for nearly five miles to build a wharf, which is specially used for fishing boats, and can also be used as a backup for the new port, and at the same time does not disturb the entry and exit of merchant ships. ”
Ding Daquan took out a sketch from his sleeve and pointed.
Zheng Mingxuan, Qiu Shuyu and the others glanced at each other, originally thinking that it was to build a new port, but now it seems that it is much more than that.
Guangzhou's shipbuilding industry is extremely developed, although now there is a tendency to be surpassed by Quanzhou Port, the main reason is because for so many years that Guangzhou Port has basically not been repaired, the port facilities are extremely backward, and Quanzhou Port is also one of the foreign trade ports stipulated by the imperial court, and even the three envoys also specifically stipulate that some merchant ships from other countries must dock in Quanzhou, just as the three envoys stipulate that merchants from Goryeo and Wa must go ashore through Qingyuan Port, and even even the envoys must pass through Qingyuan Port to enter Beijing and face the saint.
As the first foreign trade port to develop, Guangzhou Port was not only backward in terms of facilities compared to Quanzhou and Qingyuan Port, but was also despised in terms of imperial court policy.
This is also one of the reasons why the three envoys are willing to give up the Guangzhou Port City Shipping Division.
Although there is oil and water, it is not too much.
If the new port is really built according to this sketch of Jia Yidao, then it will take a lot of time and money just to dredge the channel and even excavate the shore foundation for several miles.
Now that it is the spring ploughing season, the Guangdong pacification embassy is recruiting a large number of soldiers, can Guangzhou now use so much labor?
"Don't hide it from your lordship, since the four families have already agreed to the lord and are willing to give their full support, the silver can still be taken out more or less, but this requires a lot of labor, but we can't do anything. If there isn't enough labor to use, I'm afraid it's going to delay Master Jia's plan......"
"Don't worry about a few, these adults have already thought about it, in a few days there will be a group of Japanese ships entering the port, there will definitely be enough labor for a few people to use, not to mention the mercy of the adults, this time the Ming Sect is in turmoil, those chaotic people will not be directly sentenced to death, but it is just right to build a new port, and it just helps you save money."
Peeping at the leopard in the tube, Ding Daquan's last sentence more or less let Zheng Mingxuan and others know why this person can stand out and make Jia Yidao value it so much.
The rebellion on Fujian Road, obviously Ding Daquan also just found out, now that the war has not started, he has already thought about the use of those captured rebels, which will not only not delay the construction of Xingang, but also save Guangdong Road a lot of trouble, after all, if these rebels are all killed, not only will there be no benefit, but it will also bring some damage to Jia Yidao's reputation.
For a literati, the thirst for murder is really not a good reputation.
There is another sentence that Ding Daquan did not say, that is, if there are not enough people from the Wa Kingdom and not enough prisoners are captured on Fujian Road, isn't there still Lianzhou?
Although Jia Yidao did not shy away from Zheng Mingxuan and others when he told him about the turmoil on Fujian Road just now, Ding Daquan would not be stupid enough to tell Zheng Mingxuan and others about the chaos in Lianzhou. Lianzhou is different from Fujian, Lianzhou is directly under the rule of Guangdong Road, and the name played is also caused by Jia Yidao's unauthorized reduction of the box soldiers.
This matter is not big or small, but no matter what, the large camp of the box soldiers was done by the imperial court, and Jia Rudao cut it without authorization, no matter where it is said, it is unreasonable, let alone cause the box soldiers to mutiny. Even if everyone knows that the dismissal is just a reason, the real reason is Mingjiao, but this reason is enough for those people in the court to attack Jia Nidao.
Why are Zheng Mingxuan and others willing to come all the way to Guangzhou? Isn't it because you're optimistic about Jia Nidao's future?
If the news of Lianzhou spreads, I am afraid that these will be the first to be unstable.
Ding Daquan is not stupid enough to this extent.
Even Ding Daquan had already begun to consider whether to go to see Jia Yidao later, and Jinyan directly controlled all the letters and newspapers related to Lianzhou, so as not to let any news leak out, let alone let the court know. Although there is the possibility of deceiving the king, as long as it is well controlled, Guangzhou is so far away from Lin'an City, as long as there is no evidence, what does it matter?
"Someone from the Japanese Congress will come to build a port for the Great Song Dynasty?"
Zheng Mingxuan didn't dwell on the matter of Fujian Road, but asked instead.
This really can't help but be curious, although the Wa Kingdom is a subject country of the Great Song Dynasty, but the labor required to build the port is not a small amount, and hundreds of thousands of people will not say it if they want to come to Jia Rudao. But if so many **** of the Japanese Kingdom come to the Great Song Dynasty to build a port, if this is spread, not to mention those who are admonished by Taiwan, just the scholars of the Great Song Dynasty are afraid that they will rise up and attack it, right?
How could the Celestial Empire treat its subjects like this?
"You have thought too much about it, and this matter is not intended by the adults, but by real compassion. In the past, there was a canonization ceremony for the prince of the Japanese envoy Ye Ju to observe the ceremony, and he had contact with the adults again. For this reason, the Taiwan admonition has also put on the charge of colluding with foreign countries, which is really ridiculous. Fortunately, the emperor was not disturbed by the villain.
The envoy of the wild chrysanthemum said to the adults, now that the war in the Japanese country is raging, the people are not living, and the generals in various places do their own things in order not to respect the orders of the Japanese king. The attack continues. The adults were kind and kind enough to accept those who were homeless due to the war. Isn't it the hard-won act of a saint who shows that the kingdom of the Great Song Dynasty is sympathetic to the small people of the country?
The monk Youyun saves people's lives better than building a seventh-level floating slaughter, how many lives have you saved in this move? How much merit has been accumulated for my Great Song? It is not easy for the small people of the Japanese country to survive, although my Great Song Dynasty has also been in turmoil, but after all, it is a large land and rich resources, and it can always give these people who are willing to come to my Great Song Dynasty to avoid the chaos to eat and wear warm clothes, and they can avoid the disaster of the military disaster. ”
The matter of the Japanese people is naturally not like what Ding Daquan said, but no matter what, Ding Daquan will not directly tell Zheng Mingxuan and others that these Japanese people not only have to build a port for the Great Song Dynasty, but also have to go to the battlefield to fight for the Great Song Dynasty.
It's one thing to do that, but the archway must be erected, isn't it?
