After a few days, Li Chen took a group of people to wait for Mingzhou Mansion. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info But they didn't enter Mingzhou, the boat yard is a few miles away from Mingzhou by the sea, because of the trip, they didn't rush to Mingzhou yesterday, and stayed not far from Mingzhou, so the next day, they went directly to the shipyard.

On the way to the boat yard, you can see a lot of people. The ox cart transporting timber, the old ox silently dragging the heavy cart, would occasionally moo. Li Chen suddenly thought of a very boring thing, I heard that in the event of a fire, many animals will run, but only cows will not, they will silently weep in place and wait for death

This is what his mother told him, and I don't know if it's true or not. It is said that the cow lives too hard, and it has its own wisdom, and does not want to get up as early as a chicken and sleep as late as a dog from beginning to end.

There are many time-traveling novels that preach that horsepower is stronger than oxen power, and teach farmers to raise horses instead of oxen to work. However, farmers are not stupid, and they have replaced horses with cows for thousands of years. Because horses are difficult to raise, cattle are easy to raise. Don't you look at the horse politics of all dynasties, how many people have been forced to rebel?

Wang Anshi's, everyone knows it. In the Ming Dynasty, Ludi was also not peaceful, such as the rebellion of Liu Liu and Liu Qi. Because of Ma Zheng, the local people were miserable.

Cattle are easier to raise than horses and tolerate rough feeding. Ox power is not as good as horsepower, but raising horses is very troublesome, and if you use a horse as a cow, it will really die to show you.

How is it not with man? Li Chen suddenly felt a sense of life. Because my heart is struggling whether to sail or not. Suleiman is going back to his hometown, and this is a good opportunity. He can accept Lao Su's manpower, you are going to retire anyway, aren't you.

'It's dangerous, are you sure?' Another voice, that relatively low and soft voice, Li Chen knew that he was not crazy, it was just the voice in his heart, "But if you don't go, do you want to let China embark on the road of historical reincarnation?" Another inner voice told Li Chen that he had to go.

Soon, Li Chen didn't continue to entangle, because he could see a large wooden house from a distance, very tall, very large, without any peculiar appearance and decoration. Li Chen knew that he had arrived at his destination.

'Liang Dutou. ', 'Li Dongjia. After the report, a person greeted him, and Li Chen greeted the visitor. This Liang Dutou is not very old, about thirty years old, but he is already the head of the capital, in addition to his family background, he himself is also capable enough. On the family lineage of shipbuilding, he has been building ships since his grandfather's generation. To his father, this beam shipyard was created. He has now taken over.

It's still so lively. Li Chen looked curiously into the distance, where a boat was about to be launched. He didn't think he had just caught a boat in time to get into the water, because according to Liang Dutou, there was a ship launched here almost every day. If you do the math, there are probably more than 300 ships a year. The shipbuilding industry here is really developed.

(It's not in vain that I found it myself.) Li Chen said self-deprecating in his heart, (I haven't lost that bit of historical knowledge.) ), Mingzhou and Wenzhou, were important shipbuilding towns in the Tang Dynasty. He didn't have the slightest knowledge of history, and he didn't throw it all away.

Of course, Yangzhou is also the same. Liu Yan reformed the canal transportation law and set up ten shipyards in Yangzhou, which could build hundreds or even thousands of ships every year. In fact, the entire Datang shipbuilding industry is very prosperous, and there are many places where ships can be built, and there is no shortage of places with 1,200 boats a year. That's really three or four boats launched every day.

As for why the near and far are sent, it is because Yangzhou shipbuilding is for the canal. He came to Mingzhou to build a sea ship and go to sea.

'Looks like we're catching up.' No longer watching the ship launch, Li Chen followed Liang Dutou into the shipyard, "It should be considered to be in time, this strange ship...", Liang Dutou lost his words all of a sudden, and hurriedly turned around, "Li Dongjia's ship has a peculiar appearance, so it takes more effort, but Liang promises that it will not delay the time." ’

Li Chen didn't mind his gaffe, he finally found a master who was willing to make it, a little gaffe, it didn't matter. After all, his ship is really weird.

Li Chen just touched the hull of the ship, circled around, and looked at the ship carefully. This ship carries his hopes, so that he can spend many more days in his busy schedule, and he must come and see it a few more times.

Now the theater business is very hot, although it has been so long, but the theater of those temples still can't be restored, because in February, the imperial court issued a decree "not allowed to offer Buddha teeth", stipulating: Daizhou Wutai Mountain and Sizhou Puguang Temple, Zhongnan Mountain Wutai Temple, Fengxiang Mansion Famen Temple and other places with Buddha finger bones, it is strictly forbidden to offer and pay respects, if one person gives a penny, carry a cane twenty; If a monk or nun receives a penny alms in these places, he will carry twenty rods.

I don't know how the whole world is, at least the temples in Yangzhou are currently doing people with their tails between their legs, and if they are wrong, they are being monks with their tails between them. I'm not in the mood to resume the theater business. It's completely cheap Li Chen.

His opera house building at the bottom of the box was officially opened after the spring clothes showcase. There will be some big opera performances every three or five days, such as the Three Kingdoms.

Some wealthy people like to come here to show that they have a different style, and they are not crowded in the same place as those peddlers and pawns. Because of the good business, Li Chen has recently put Journey to the West on the agenda.

There are also spring tea and teapots, with the promotion of the new tea making method is hot, the supply exceeds demand, although the Tang Dynasty has laid off a large number of employees, which has slightly affected sales, and the officials are about to be fired, who is still in the mood to buy any tea sets. However, because there are still some big businessmen who are in the market, the sales are still very hot. Now in Yangzhou, whoever entertains friends to drink tea, and also uses old-fashioned tea sets and cooking methods, will become a laughing stock for others. It's just that Li Chen felt very dissatisfied, and he wanted to go to sea very much suddenly.

'Out to sea, O ocean.' Li Chen patted the hull, under the hull, Li Chen had made a lot of money, and the place near the waterline was pasted with copper sheets, which was not thin. This is to increase the speed of the boat.

"It's good to go to sea, if you don't ask for people, we won't be able to get through this business." Thinking that Li Chen was talking to himself, Liang Dutou also expressed his feelings.

It's really strange to say, many of the people who booked the ship with us were Hu people, those merchants. It seems that most of the people are well-dressed Tang people, but they are not my Tang people, which is really strange. My Tang Haijiang is controlled by some Hu people. Hearing this, Li Chen froze, this Liang Dutou was not wrong at all.

It's not that no one in Datang has gone to the sea to do business, but the coastal area of Datang is probably bounded by Quanzhou, and probably, the north is the world of the Silla people. To the south was the world of Hu merchants, Arab merchants. It's not that these places don't allow Tang people to enter, but there are very few Tang people.

This is also one of the reasons why Li Chen decided to go to sea. Not only that, but he also had to go to sea himself. (To be continued.) )
