Chapter 619: Armed Merchant

The Hajj of the ninth year of Wanli was successfully held, according to Qin Lin's complaint, this was a united conference, a victorious conference, the guests and hosts exchanged views in a cordial and friendly atmosphere, the East Asian tributary system with China as the suzerainty was further consolidated, and the envoys of Java, Annam, Siam and other countries said that all vassals were an inseparable part of the Central Celestial Empire, and strongly condemned the aggression of the Western colonists in Nanyang...... The Ming Dynasty achieved the political goal of the coming dynasty of all states, strengthened its influence on the vassal states and its feudal rule, and the vassal states and Tusi strengthened their ties with the Central Celestial Empire and obtained security based on the tributary system.

To say that the harvest is the most abundant, it has to be Zhang Juzheng and his Jiangling Party.

According to the most orthodox Confucian point of view, the eight directions and the four Yi Binfu are the proof of the reign of the holy monarch and the virtuous minister, and the Wanli on the throne is already the largest, and no matter how much he is promoted to the emperor, the holy monarch is just a false name, and Zhang Juzheng, the regent of the country, is from the Taifu to the Taishi, and he is really a very human minister, and this virtuous minister is really good.

In the north, there is Alta Fenggong, and in the south, Yingzhou is appeased, which decorates the Zhongxing atmosphere of the dynasty, proves that the Jiangling Party is in good governance, and adds weight to the in-depth implementation of the new policy; An agreement was reached with the Wufeng maritime merchants to expand trade, and it was expected that a large amount of tax and silver would be handed over to the national treasury, and the money spent on training the new army and repairing the river would be more abundant.

Secondly, Jin Yingji has made a lot of gains, from the chief of the six-pin Tusi, directly promoted from the three-pin Xuan, hereditary replacement, forever for the Haidong Ping Domain, Zhang Zixuan also made a commitment on behalf of his father that he would further liberalize the sea ban on the basis of opening Hangzhou and Yuegang, and gradually increase the treaty port, which is more beneficial to the Wufeng maritime merchants.

The most lost is of course Huang Taiji, who lost his wife and lost his soldiers, and his reputation was still stinky, and people who didn't know the truth said that he wore a green hat, and the Mongolian nobles who probably knew the inside story felt that he couldn't even protect his henchmen...... Huang Taiji couldn't care about anything else, there was news that Altan Khan was seriously ill outside the Saiwai, and he happened to have no face to stay any longer, so he took this opportunity to resign to the imperial court early, and was ready to go back to the Saiwai.

It is said that Huang Taiji was the first to resign and leave, and the imperial court should have expressed it, but when the imperial master Zhang Juzheng had the heart to show him a face, he only sent Zhao Shizhen, the chief secretary of Honglu Temple, to see him off.

His Holiness Welling could not go out of retreat, but still sent the Great Lama Nyima to see off the guests.

Desheng Gate in the north of the Beijing Division, Huang Taiji and his entourage were dejected and ready to get out, thinking about how beautiful it was when they came, how polite the court was, and how lonely it was when they left, it was really miserable and miserable, and the Mongolian nobles were not a taste in their hearts.

The Great Lama Nyima was born black and fat, wearing a red monk's robe with one hand exposed, a monk's hat like a broom, and hanging Hada around Huang Taiji's neck with both hands to cheer him up: "Tsogyada Varpindi once said that Huang Taiji is the protector of the god Vedic descended to earth, with great wisdom and great fate, extremely special, a temporary setback is just a fateful test, and the future blessings are still long!" ”

The voice of this statement was relatively loud, Huang Taiji seemed to have expected it, straightened his chest, and swept his gaze slightly over the Mongolian nobles.

The nobles of the various tribes and the warriors of Nayan were secretly shocked in their hearts, the noble Tsogyada Varpindi, with profound wisdom and boundless mana, said that Huang Taiji was the descendant of Vedic, so could it be fake?

"Pretending to be a ghost!" Zhao Shizhen scolded secretly, and said in his heart that Lao Tzu and Chief Qin still have something, how can they have time to talk to you gods? Huang Taiji, get out of here, don't grind!

Huang Taiji was quite reluctant to take a look at the city wall of Jingshi in the end, although there was Tsogyada Varpindi's strong support, after all, this trip to Jingshi made the scene too ugly, and it was inevitable to be lonely in his heart.

At this moment, the sound of horses' hooves in the south seemed to be a large number of horses.

Could it be that which acquaintance came to see him off? Huang Taiji was overjoyed in his heart, there were a lot of people who came to see this formation, and he finally got by on his face.

But in the next moment, Huang Taiji's face was not very good-looking, because it was Qin Lin and Jin Yingji.

"Huang Taiji stays, this official is here to send him off!" Qin Lin rode on the snow and greeted him very warmly.

Jin Yingji also has a slight upturned mouth, and the smile on her face is more and more charming.

It's good that Qin Lin didn't come, but when he came, Huang Taiji was extremely depressed, he snorted coldly in his nose, and turned around to leave.

"Why is Taiji leaving, alas, two more days!" Qin Lin said very regretfully, as if he had just remembered: "By the way, where is Brother Jebel, hey, he is not with you?" ”

Huang Taiji's figure stopped suddenly, and that day there was a big fight, although he beat Jebe to the point of bleeding, but he didn't dare to really kill people, so he ran away, and he didn't know his whereabouts for many days, so Huang Taiji's heart was hanging.

There was really no way, Huang Taiji smiled all over his face, and arched his hand: "Thank you General Qin for coming to see you off, do you know where Zhebei is?" Xiao Ke hadn't seen him for four or five days. ”

Qin Lin was shocked: "Oh, it's strange! The day before yesterday, he found the official and said that Taiji's customs clearance document had been dropped and needed to be reissued. Ah, who is the official and Taiji, and immediately made a document for him, and for the sake of Taiji's face, he gave him another fast horse and fifty taels of silver...... Didn't he tell Taiji? ”

You, you! Huang Taiji pointed at Qin Lin, trembling with anger, unable to even say a word.

He was worried that Jebe would go back to the grassland before him and tell the real cause of Delma's death, which would cause a storm on the ground, but Jebel didn't clear the customs papers, and he couldn't get out, so he expected to fall behind him.

Who knew that Qin Lin didn't do a customs clearance document for Zhe, not to mention, but also sent a fast horse, this is simply, simply afraid that the world will not be chaotic!

Jebe rode alone, set off the day before yesterday, at this time it is estimated that he has passed the Xuanfu, and Huang Taiji can't catch up even if he puts on his wings.

However, Huang Taiji was so angry that he was like thunder, and Qin Lin still looked innocent, as if he was really similar to the other party.

Jin Yingji covered her cherry mouthful, her stomach was about to hurt with laughter, Qin Lin, a little enemy, why was it so bad?

"Let's go, let's go!" Huang Taiji's eyes bulged, and it took him a long time to hold back such a sentence, and he turned his horse's head and walked out of Deshengmen, his face was as black as if he had just eaten, and it was still a very big lump!

The Mongolian nobles followed one after another, and this group of heroes outside the Saiwai had few deep cities and many rectums, and they couldn't help whispering: "Tsogyada Varpindi said that Huang Taiji is the protector of the Dharma, but why does he lose his temper every time he meets General Qin?" ”

"In this way, unless General Qin is an incarnation of Manjushri Bodhisattva!"

Huang Taiji hit his horse and ran away as if he was fleeing, and after a while, he ran away without a trace.

When Qin Lin noticed something, he quickly looked away, pronounced a Buddha name, and went straight back to Longfu Temple.

Zhao Shizhen greeted him with a happy face: "Chief Qin, I have the ambition to destroy his prestige, which really makes the lower officials happy in their hearts." ”

Qin Lin waved his hand and said with a smile: "Don't patronize Huanxi, take this official and General Jin to see the foreign baby, that's what Huanxi!" ”

Zhang Juzheng and Jin Yingji each got their own gains, and Qin Lin also got what he wanted, and the Turkish envoy Murad not only looked like a lamp god, but also really fulfilled Qin Lin's wish, which was to provide Lu Mi Gong with a full set of technology: including a giant wooden machine tool that was two stories high, and three experienced slave technicians.

Of course, the machine tools will not be shipped by Murad from Turkey, they are all made from local materials and directly in Beijing according to the drawings.

At first, it was Zhao Shizhen who stared at Murad and the technician, and halfway through the construction, Bi Maokang and Li Huowang, who Qin Lin had left in the Nanjing firearms workshop, had already arrived, and the three of them consulted together, and quickly understood the technology.

After two days of trial operation of the machine tool, everything was in good condition, and the three of them reported the good news to Qin Lin, and they were going to inspect the ironwork workshop located in the north of the city.

The workshop is only a few miles away from Deshengmen, along the way Qin Lin and Jin Yingji talked and laughed and did not avoid taboos, Zhao Shizhen saw it and spit out his tongue: Heh, it turns out that Yingzhou Xuanfu really has a leg with General Qin, and this general's road can be paved far enough...... In the blacksmith workshop in the northern suburbs of Jingshi, in order to cast large bells, cannons and other large pieces, the houses are particularly tall and spacious, and there are two wooden machine tools more than one zhang high in them, which do not look crowded.

When Qin Lin and Jin Yingji came, Bi Maokang and Li Huowang commanded the apprentices to work in full swing, the three apprentices stood on the machine tool, drove the drill bit with a roulette wheel and leather strip, and drilled the barrel of the gun with a hula hula, while the three Turkish slave technicians stood next to them, nodding their heads in appreciation.

It was Zhao Shizhen who shouted, and Bi Maokang and the others found out that Qin Lin was coming, and was about to salute, when Qin Lin waved his hand: "Busy with you, you don't have to salute." ”

Bi Maokang and Li Huowang also knew that Chief Qin was not polite, and still tried the machine tool with the apprentices.

Zhao Shizhen explained beside him: "The technology of this machine tool is actually not complicated, most of it is made of wood, but it is very cleverly conceived, so that the speed of drilling the barrel is at least four times faster than before, so that Lu Mi can be equipped with Lu Mi gun with an extraordinarily long barrel." ”

In the early years of Wanli, it was not the era when Western science and technology won comprehensively after the completion of the industrial revolution, and the science and technology of various countries showed their own characteristics and strengths...... On the contrary, China has demonstrated a relatively comprehensive and balanced technological advantage, and during the Jiajing period, the imitation of Western bird guns was 10,000 at a time, without any difficulty, and the imitation Franc machine was even better than the surname of Spanish origin.

Qin Lin turned around and looked at the appearance of the machine tool, which was of course far worse than those all-steel machine tools and even CNC machine tools in later generations, but it was much more convenient than completely manual work.

"In this case, as long as there are drawings and related technical information, in fact, this barrel manufacturing technology can be used anywhere?" Qin Lin scratched his head and looked at Zhao Shizhen.

Zhao Shizhen nodded without hesitation.

Jin Yingji grabbed Qin Lin's hand, of course she knew what it meant.

Qin Lin's smile was particularly sinister, and the sea power armed with elite weapons would soon make the East and West oceans boil!
