Chapter 5 Going to Sea
The spring breeze blows the earth, and the brilliant sunshine shines on this piece of seaside sand, and the golden sand is like a place of golden sand, shining brightly in the sun. In the salty sea breeze, a tall building catches the eye of passers-by. The one-story roof building is so conspicuous, with thick pillars supporting a dome, like a huge gazebo. This is Li Kuan's shipyard, so simple. It's not that Li Kuan is unwilling to build a closed house, but all kinds of transportation and other very troublesome, in this era when there is no large-scale machinery, all have to rely on manual production, those thick logs have to be carried into the shipyard on the shoulder, if it is closed, it will take a lot of wrongful roads, which will greatly affect efficiency. That's why it's like this, take a straight line, take a shortcut. Another reason was Li Kuan's own selfishness, because the workers in this shipyard were all slaves who had been transported from distant Japanese slave countries. In Li Kuan's eyes, these people are actually not people, they are just animals, and the resentments that only exist in Li Kuan's memory are all vented by Li Kuan on the Japanese slave people in this era.
So, isn't it a very pleasant thing to make this shipyard look like this, and in the cold winter, those Japanese slaves shiver in the cold wind? As for why Li Kuan was able to get these people back from the Japanese slave country, he had already laid out his chess pieces a long time ago. When he was in Zhenguan for four years, he was already planning for this matter. The old man Xie Wenyuan, who was named Chen Tuan by him, had already crossed the ocean and arrived at the Japanese slave country as early as the fourth year of Zhenguan. At this time, the Japanese slave states were still in the Warring States period of their history. The daimyo divided the entire Wano kingdom and fought against each other. And the route from Datang to the Japanese slave country has not yet been explored. That Jianzhen monk who dared to sail has not yet been born! So this Chen Tuan Ancestor brought a big ship and some relatives who were arranged by Li Kuan to his side. He became the first person from the Central Plains to ascend the Japanese slave country since the Han Dynasty.
However, Chen Kuan did not come for any peace between the two countries, but with Li Kuan's task to arrive at this island country across the ocean, his appearance was modified by Li Kuan, and now the whole person is so immortal, it can be said that he is immortal in the dust, and the whole person's clothes are in a real posture, plus the azure robe on his body, it is so dusty and elegant. Coupled with the modern scientific knowledge that Li Kuan has given him with memory technology, it is simply a tiger with wings. Using modern chemical knowledge, he created all kinds of miracles, but in just half a year, this old immortal from the Heavenly Empire became the most respected person in the Japanese slave country, and with his group of skilled 'retainers'. Therefore, he became the object of competition among the largest daimyo forces in the entire Japanese slave country.
But at this time, the old god suddenly went to Kyoto, met with the emperor of the Japanese slave country at that time, and recruited a princess under the emperor's seat, Takayama Goko, as a disciple. The emperor who has already existed in name only rises again, because the people believe that the old gods will serve the emperor because of the guidance of Amaterasu, so the emperor is the ruler of the destiny of the Japanese slave country. As a result, the people of various places rebelled against the rule of their own daimyos. It accelerated the unification of the entire Japanese slave state.
After Chen Shu used the black thing called opium given to him by Li Kuan to control the Japanese emperor in the Japanese slave country, he became the real controller of the Japanese slave country, plus the reputation he had accumulated in the past six months. So when the fifth year of Zhenguan came, this old immortal became the national teacher of the Japanese slave country. The whole empire existed only under the transcendent existence of the emperor. And because Chen Qian uses some means. Come up with some spells like condensing water into ice, opening mountains and cracking rocks. So that the entire Japanese slave country was completely controlled by him. The emperor was overthrown by him, and the difficult mountain goat, the imperial daughter who left a strong mark on the history of the Japanese slave country, was also firmly controlled by him. Because Li Kuan had passed down an order before he arrived in the country of the Japanese slaves this time, that is, to keep this mountain goat, which will be useful in the future.
It is precisely because this ancestor of Chen Tuan unified the Japanese slave country that so many slaves of the Japanese slave country were sold to the Central Plains. These people are the samurai under the Daimyo who were defeated in the Japanese civil war in the past two years, and these people were transported by the hidden schools that Chen Tuan visited one by one before leaving, and were sold to all parts of the Tang Dynasty, in the past two years, these short slaves who could not speak Chinese were everywhere in the Tang Dynasty, but in order to prevent these people from making trouble in the Tang Dynasty, Chen Tuan made corresponding measures before selling them abroad, such as cutting off their tongues, Or let them swallow red-hot coal. In this way, these Japanese slaves can't speak, all of them are mute slaves, such slaves have no other use except for doing coolies, and there is a big difference between the Japanese slave country and the Tang Dynasty's writing, so even if they write down their origins, no one will know them, but they will know some of them, but they can't imagine that these people are from the other side of the distant sea.
Li Kuan is doing a desperate plan, because heaven and earth are divided into yin and yang, people are divided into men and women, and without men, then the Japanese slave country will only be left with the end of the extinction of the dead race, and with the help of those hidden schools Li Kuan is also remotely controlling Chen Kuan's actions. For example, in the recent past, the great national teacher of the Usamu country has been preaching that because of the rebellion of those daimyos, the entire Uzunu country will be punished by Amaterasu, and there will be a divine punishment from Amaterasu in various places - the plague. As a result, all kinds of plagues became prevalent in the Japanese slave country, and the entire Japanese people lived in misery.
Of course, this qiē has nothing to do with Li Kuan, so he doesn't care about how many little devils die, and what he is most concerned about now is the launch of the first ship built by his shipyard. Coming to the seashore, rows of docks were set up on the docks on the edge of the sea, where countless Japanese slaves were busy, and a group of overseers in linen clothes were supervising the work of these slaves, and the leather whips in their hands were so skillful, casually flicking whips in the air, crackling. As long as someone slacks off a little, then only a snapping sound can be heard, and the lazy person will be drawn, and then directly hit the skin and flesh.
"His Royal Highness the King of Chu...... This ......" Seeing a slave in front of him being whipped with two whips and bleeding profusely, Chen Xuanzhang, who was beside Li Kuan, couldn't help frowning slightly, as if he felt that this was too cruel. So he whispered.
"Why, Lord Chen thinks this is cruel? But are they just two whips? If you are in the army, such a slack person is a cholera soldier, and if such a person is caught, he will have eighty military sticks, and he will kill him himself. Come on, those two people dared to be lazy just now, it seems that they are itching on their bodies, so drag them to the sea to wash them! Li Kuan said in a cold voice, watching these people being whipped with a whip, Li Kuan did not have the slightest mercy in his heart, because as long as he thought that these people were Japanese slaves, there was only hatred left in his heart, and under the ruins of Nanjing City, 300,000 unjust souls were still complaining to the sky. In the far northeast, there are also bacteriological bombs buried in the ground, and on the blood book of history, there are also blood and tears of the Chinese nation, these are the reasons why Li Kuan's heart is like a stone, and these are the reasons why Li Kuan hates them. So at this time, he has the ability, then there should not be such a dirty people as zài in this world. Now that he has come to this era, these peoples will be lost in the long river of history. This is the confession of him as a traverser, and this is the revenge of him as an emperor and a man.
With a sound of indistinct howls coming from the seaside, Li Kuan's face showed a look like enjoyment, and this look fell in the eyes of these Cangzhou officials who accompanied him, and they couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, and after a while, the clothes of the vest were wet. But no one dared to speak out, because in their letters, they had already concluded that His Royal Highness the King of Chu had a tyrannical tendency, and no one dared to touch his head at this time.
"That's a pleasant sound, isn't it?" After enjoying it for a while, Li Kuan asked softly, which made the hearts of these officials chill, and no one dared to respond. They all shrunk their heads, as if they wished they had a shell to hide their heads in now, so that this person wouldn't see them. But they weren't turtles after all, so no matter how they shrunk their necks, they could only lower their heads and count the sand on the ground.
"Let's go, our ship is underwater!" Li Kuan looked at the big ship that had been pushed out of a large group of Japanese slaves from a dock in the distance, and strode forward. The ship was so magnificent, it was more than 30 feet long from bow to stern, and the cabin was 10 feet high above the water. There were no high-rise buildings on the ship, only these three stout masts with sails hanging from them. The hull of the boat is streamlined, like the body of a fish, making it easy to break through the waves. In addition to this, in the bow of the ship, a large metal ramming angle was mounted there, like the blade of a sharp tomahawk. The ramming horn shines in the sun, which is made after countless craftsmen continue to hammer and quench, just in the production of this angle spent on the pig iron bought into money, it is enough for the entire Cangzhou people to feast.
But this qiē is not a big deal in Li Kuan's eyes, he only has that big ship left in his eyes at this time, compared with this ship, those five-tooth ships that are rampant and domineering on the Yangtze River and the Yellow River are as fragile as toys piled up with building blocks, this is not Li Kuan's boasting, but he has never considered driving in the inland river in the manufacture of this ship, such a ship should be above the sea, for the peace of the Tang Dynasty's maritime frontier, and to contribute to the development of the larger territory of the Tang Dynasty. Instead of sailing on that little river to deter those water thieves. (To be continued......)
