Chapter 344: Progress
In order to get rid of the surveillance, Li Chen summoned many horns, not to use them to protect himself, these people, if they really want to encounter assassination, forget it, there are no assassin accomplices among them, just a medium situation, and a lower situation will drag them back and be pig teammates. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
He asked them to tear away the attention of those guards, and by provoking them and using personal grievances, these guards would not have the time to spy on themselves. So far, it seems to be very successful, he can now read openly, and no one cares about him. If he wants to come, he will be notified early, and he will not be raided by him. Reveal your secrets.
Those guards, unable to stand the provocation, were dragged to see if you were the two of us alone, or the two of us beating you up. There are a large number of horn fighters, and even if a single martial art is not as good as these guards, they are not afraid to attack in groups. Don't look at them all used to one-on-one, in fact, they often play four-player two-player matchups, and even group battles.
As for those who are not provoked, the end is not much better. Don't give them a chance, if you get it, you want him to choose a heads-up or a group fight. Even if you don't have a chance, you have to create opportunities, this is what Li Chen said. This frees up Li Chen's private space.
As for the other eunuchs, the fate was worse than that of the guards. He also had to worry about the guards and assassinate him. Every time they were beaten and trained to have a blue nose and swollen face, Li Chen was always very considerate to let them cultivate, and also gave them talents and materials to let them rest at ease.
They know very well that where it hurts, it will not kill people. They're real thugs, not street brawlers. But those eunuchs, Li Chen didn't leave his hand at all.
There's no way around it.... For Xiaohong's silence, Li Chen knew that she couldn't bear it and wanted to admonish herself, but she couldn't say it.
For those eunuchs who were not very obedient and still monitored themselves openly and secretly, Li Chen directly killed several of them. The horns that were summoned fought against each other, and the order was carried out thoroughly. These warriors always have an instinctive dislike for the crippled eunuchs. No mercy.
Some of them made mistakes, and even, sometimes, for fun, Li Chen would watch how they tortured and killed those eunuchs, whether they were obedient or disobedient.
Let them perform some killers, some real skills to kill, rather than performing the same techniques. Cast it on Taima to make fun of it. The killing made the people in the palace panic. The palace maids are okay, Li Chen hasn't attacked them yet, and those eunuchs are really panicked.
But Li Chen is also helpless, how can he make an example of monkeys if he doesn't kill chickens? If you don't kill chickens, who will be afraid? Will the guards be afraid? Will the rest of the eunuchs and palace maids be afraid? How can it work as well as it does now?
It's not that he doesn't have compassion for those eunuchs. Who can't get by, just slash it. Enter the palace to serve, change food and clothing. How many people really want to win people in one step by becoming a eunuch? It's just poor people.
However, if you don't do this, how can you have the effect now? Now those eunuchs and palace maids, without a summons, don't even dare to enter his line of sight, and hide as far as they can. The guards are better, but they try to stay away. Can not be around him, try not to be around him.
In this way, he has his own private space, can read books, listen to reports, remotely control the situation outside the palace, and accumulate strength. If you don't want to be an emperor, at least a eunuch who is a concubine is an emperor, and you can't hide your attempt to get rid of the surveillance of **** Zhen, so as to avoid letting him know that he is an emperor with normal intelligence or above.
Although the technique is too cool, Xiaohong really can't look past it, but Li Chen's inner struggle, she knows better than anyone else. So she didn't say anything, she could only sigh silently in her heart, and then comfort Li Chen.
She knew that Li Chen was originally a benevolent person, so he would take Sanxiao, who had nothing to do with him, to live together, and then he adopted many children one after another. Is it easy? Li Chen, who is not a big family, can only rely on his meager income to support them. Then rely on your own mind to improve your life and create a better future.
She also knew that Li Chen was not so fond of torturing others. He is a person who always smiles, is arrogant, but can relax his mind and be cheerful.
He couldn't hear their wails of pain, he couldn't see the scene of severed limbs and stumps, and he couldn't smell the blood in his nose. How many times did he wake up in the middle of the night, and then he opened his eyes until dawn, and then fell into a deep sleep, and did not go to the morning court, because it was often time to go to the court, so that he could sleep peacefully.
She knows all this, and she also knows that she can't be dissuaded, from the day Li Chen sits on the throne, she has to face such a bloody road, a road that is destined to be difficult.
At this time, the ships should have set sail. Li Chen looked out the window at the sky, there were a lot of clouds in the sky, but there was no rain, but with today's temperature, it was more likely to snow. He didn't want to continue on this heavy topic, so he changed the subject.
Well, they all set sail, and the insurance company also reported this year's income. Speaking of business, Xiaohong put away her emotions, she flipped out a stack of papers, and said accordingly.
This year, 200 ships were insured, ranging from 5,000 to 10,000. The total insured amount is 1.6 million yuan, and the income is 160,000 yuan. However, the money cannot be touched for the time being. We won't know how much is left until next year, when the ships return. ’
Li Chen's Maritime Mutual Aid Society, Datang No. 1 Insurance Society, had this idea a few years ago. It was not until this year that it was implemented. After several years of publicity, 200 ships were insured in the first year.
In terms of premiums and claims, you can choose how much to claim, and the upper limit is not more than the goods you can carry. Then the amount of money collected is estimated to a certain extent. Based on the amount you guarantee, some summarized rules will be added as variables.
Let's say, you keep 10,000. How much premium you have to pay depends on the age of your ship, the captain's experience, your past experience, and so on.
If you pay enough money, if something happens to you, the insurance company will compensate you according to the insurance rate. It's okay, that's the insurance company's.
Then, this insurance company will drag on for so many years. First, we need to find people to join, share risks, and gather capital. Secondly, in order to calculate the probability of affecting the safety of the ship, they collected a lot of information and tried to sort out the rules in order to calculate a more accurate value.
If this value is low, the insurance society will lose money. If it is too high, it will affect the willingness to insure, and if the shipowner is not willing to take out insurance, then the insurance company is meaningless.
Finally, in order to avoid insurance fraud, a lot of effort was also spent. You can't say that the ship is sinking and believe that it has sunk. I don't verify it at all, if someone's ship goes to sea, moves the goods off the ship, and then sinks the ship, what should I do if I cheat the insurance?
I even went to sea and came back, and before I returned to Datang, I did this, and when the goods were transported back and I made money, and there was a fool who paid a large amount of insurance premiums? If you can't stop the insurance fraud, or confirm whether the ship has sunk, this insurance agency should not be opened, and no amount of money will be enough.
In order to confirm the condition of the boat, the insurance company has set up points along the route. According to nautical charts, points were set up in some major ports to keep a record of passing ships and confirm their condition. Thanks to this era, or the blessing of Asian shipping technology. It's not a freak like Li Chen, and there is no way for ordinary ships not to dock and sail directly.
It is necessary to stop slowly from port to port, and you only need to set up points in a few places along the way, and you can probably grasp the movement of the insured ship. No, everyone has obviously run away, as long as your eyes are dark, you don't know anything.
In addition to recording the movement of ships, it will also record coastal meteorological information, with detailed meteorological records, the assessment of the risk of going to sea can be more accurate. In addition, there are records and observations, so that there is a more accurate anticipation of the future. In the era when there were no satellites, we could only rely on long-term observation to estimate future meteorological developments.
Next, Xiaohong reported some other things, how the preparation of the theater was going, how the newspaper had to be promoted, what the response was now, and in order to reduce costs, they set up their own paper mill and engraving printing factory.
'Isn't the movable type printing still fruitful?' Li Chen suddenly asked, "No." Xiaohong turned over the paper in his hand, and there was no mention of the results of the research on movable type printing, "Maybe it's the same as last time, it's okay to use wooden movable type, but clay movable type and metal movable type, the ink adhesion ability is not very good, and the effect is poor." ’
In the future, don't use engraving, and use wooden movable type. After burning, the study of mud movable type and metal movable type must not stop. Since we want to develop printing, of course, we must directly switch to movable type printing while printing has not yet been fully developed and the resistance is still small.
Movable type is better than engraving. However, if we wait until engraving printing is fully developed before promoting movable type printing, I am afraid that it will encounter some resistance. Whether the resistance is big or small, Li Chen can't estimate, but it will never be gone, anything has to be promoted, if it touches the original interest class, without resistance and resistance, it is impossible. To avoid trouble, simply go one step at a time.
That's about it. When Xiaohong saw the last page of the paper, after repeatedly confirming that there was no omission, she found a basin and burned the paper by candle flame to avoid leaving evidence.
'By the way, are you going to attend the New Year's Day pilgrimage party?' Xiaohong suddenly asked, Li Chen wrinkled his bitter gourd face when he heard this, and he was going to wear that troublesome outfit again.
'Father-in-law, you must help your son to be the master. A eunuch knelt on the ground and wept. In front of him was another eunuch, his father-in-law, and he was weeping and asking his father-in-law to stand up for him. (To be continued.) )
