Chapter 310: The Great Song Dynasty's First Voyage

Who is the big boss behind the scenes, Zhao Xu doesn't know, but he heard Dong Zhenhai say that it seems that he is going to meet the mysterious boss today, which gives him hope again.

"Dong Zhenhai, I give you a task, that is, you must keep an eye on him, but remember not to let him find out, I have already taught you such things."

Such a simple tracking technique, Zhao Xu had already told them, so Zhao Xu said that these things had been handed over to them.

"Don't worry, the prince still has this ability, I have already ordered it, you can rest assured." Dong Zhenhai patted his chest and reassured.

"You are also arrogant, this matter must not go wrong, otherwise it will not end well, by the way, how about the Inner Palace defense that I asked you to discuss with Zhang Qiong?"

Zhao Xu had to beat Dong Zhenhai from time to time, and he couldn't make him feel how great he was.

also blames him for being smooth sailing no matter what he does recently, which makes him breed the arrogance of Lao Tzu who is the best in the world.

Sure enough, as soon as Zhao Xu said this, Dong Zhenhai immediately lowered his head, what Zhao Xu said just now was not wrong, he was not too concerned.

felt that this was a trivial matter, and he couldn't arouse his interest at all, thinking that it was all pediatric, and after Zhao Xu reminded him of this, he found that his heart had changed unconsciously.

"The prince is right, Lao Hei has been doing things too smoothly recently, so we have a little slack in our hearts."

Liu Baohu himself kept a clear head, and he also recognized this problem, otherwise he would not have said such a thing.

"Okay, you pay attention to the drink, it's good to have confidence, but you must not be arrogant, but you can't be arrogant, but you can't be arrogant, you all go and run errands."

Zhao Xu not only had to beat them, but at the same time, he couldn't make them afraid from now on, otherwise it would be really troublesome.

Zhao Xu hasn't seen Miao Xun these days, and the others haven't seen Miao Xun either.

Zhao Kuangyin also asked Miao Xun what he was doing, but it seemed that only Zhao Xu knew what Miao Xun was doing.

Seeing that Zhao Xu deliberately wanted to go to Miao Mansion, because Miao Xun was coming back today, and Miao Xun had already come back at this hour.

When Zhao Xu came to Miao Mansion, Miao Miao, who was still sharp-eyed, saw him first and ran over quickly.

At this time, Miao Xun found out that Zhao Xu was here, and hurriedly walked out, he hadn't opened his mouth yet, but Zhao Xu had already spoken.

"Mr. has worked hard all the way, I really don't know what to say, come and bring me a jar of wine, let my sister-in-law fry two dishes and let the two of us drink, what do you think, sir?"

At this time, Miao Xun noticed that Zhao Xu was still carrying a jar of wine in his hand, and he couldn't say what he wanted to say.

"Since the lord has such a Yaxing, what else can I say, go inside."

He didn't pick up the wine jar in Zhao Xu's hand, with his own strength, this jar of wine was really a little difficult.

Zhao Xu didn't say much, and was about to walk in directly, but someone grabbed his trouser leg:

"Didn't you say last time, brother, that if you come again, you want me to buy candy, why did you forget?" After speaking, Miao Miao's small mouth pouted.

"Hahaha, look at your little mouth can hang an oil bottle, how could I forget, what do you think this is?"

Saying that, Zhao Xu took out a sugar man from behind him, and when he saw that it was Nazha, Miao Miao immediately smiled when he saw this.

"This girl, let's go in, the prince." Miao Xun led Zhao Xu into the main hall.

After the two sat down, Zhao Xu spoke first:

"Sir, I really worked hard for you this time, and I really feel a little sorry to let you run around for so many days."

"My lord, what you said is a bit out of the ordinary, what is hard or not, I haven't done anything, I'm just going to move my mouth."

Miao Xun immediately said that he hadn't done anything at all, he just told him. It turned out that this time Miao Xun went to the coast.

To be precise, Shandong is the part, of course he is not to worship Confucius, and he has more important things to do.

In fact, according to Zhao Xu, the best result is to establish a city port in Guangzhou.

However, now that area is not the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, there is no way to develop it, so in desperation, it is chosen along the coast of Shandong.

This time, Miao Xun went to replace Zhao Xu to send those businessmen who wanted to go to the sea, and Zhao Xu was also going to go, but he really couldn't get away.

"Then the gentleman will tell me what I believe about the situation, I really want to know such a grand occasion."

Zhao Xu felt that his absence was a big regret, after all, this was the first large-scale ocean voyage of the Great Song Dynasty.

It can be said to be epoch-making, and there may be more in the future, but the significance is not as good as this time.

"Hahaha, this time we dispatched twenty large ships, five thousand soldiers, and a large number of porcelain, silk and other things, and sailed south according to what you said, this is the largest voyage in recorded history."

"Those businessmen are very happy, saying that the benefits this time must be multiplied, after all, they have been there before, but they are often harassed by bandits, and now they are safer with the military escort."

Miao Xun didn't have a detailed introduction, but he said it briefly, because there was a detailed record, and it would be presented to Zhao Xu later.

"Hehe, these businessmen have brains, although they don't benefit much from cooperating with the imperial court, but compared with before, they don't know how much, and it's also safer, which they don't know well."

Zhao Xu Neng didn't know what these people were thinking, they were willing to risk their lives for profit.

"By the way, the soldiers are all composed of some prisoners, is this reliable, aren't you afraid of them causing trouble?"

Miao Xun wanted to know what Zhao Xu thought, because the soldiers who accompanied him were basically made up of prisoners.

"Haha, sir, don't worry, if they want to be promoted and make a fortune, they will naturally not make trouble, unless they don't want to live."

Zhao Xu brought out many prisoners from prisons in various places who were not the most heinous criminals to give them a chance to serve the imperial court, that is, to serve as soldiers and go to sea with the fleet.

Which prisoner was unwilling, so Zhao Xu trained them into an army, and with the fleet going to sea, there was no need to worry about them rebelling at all.

Because Zhao Xu promised them that those who have merit can be important after they come back, and they have already given them a settling-in allowance, even if they sacrifice in the sea family, there will be no burden.
