ps: During the Spring Festival, one chapter will be updated every day for the time being

"Da Lang, Ziwen, our navy is still very weak, and we must expand the size of the fleet as soon as possible!" Wei Shuo looked at the fleet that was gradually moving away on the sea, and turned his head to Zhu Wen and Zhang Dalang beside him.

"Lord, don't worry, when our shipyard is put into operation in two years, our navy will usher in great development."

"By the way, speaking of shipyards, there is one more thing I forgot to remind you of. Have all the shipbuilders I recruited from Koto some time ago settled? They are talents that I have worked so hard to get from Jiangdong, so you have to take care of them. ”

"Please rest assured, Brother Wei, those shipwrights are all placed in newly built houses on the mountain, and the monthly wages are not enough, which is enough for them to settle down. Many shipwrights saw that there was a academy on our mountain, and they were willing to accept the children of shipwrights into school, so that they could be grateful. ”

"This is all the credit of the lord, if it wasn't for the lord's insistence on opening the academy against public opinion, I am afraid that there would not be such a grand scene today. Today, there are 321 children and teenagers over the age of 6 and under 15, and the number of teachers has expanded to 20. ”

Wei Shuo listened to the reports of Zhang Dalang and Zhu Wen, nodded with satisfaction and said: "Well, yes, the two of you have done a good job during this time, not only withstanding the pressure from all sides, but also steadily expanding the influence of Laoshan to the surrounding areas. Those teaching gentlemen are all right, right? ”

"Those teaching gentlemen are basically elderly scholars, most of them fled with the homeless people, and later saw that my Laoshan was a paradise, but they all chose to stay and become teachers. Our Laoshan teacher not only has an easy job and a good salary, but also is deeply respected by the people in Laoshan. Zhu Wen explained proudly.

Wei Shuo is not a person who is very happy, and he will not just listen to the joy and not let the worries be reported, so after the three of them gossiped for a while, he looked at the two of them very seriously: "Well, yes, yes, but don't be complacent, you have to make persistent efforts to go to the next level!" Okay, we've talked a lot about the good side, you should also expose yourself to the ugliness of your family, see what are the shortcomings, say it and we'll discuss it together. ”

Zhu Wen and Zhang Dalang glanced at each other and said: "Lord, I really have an urgent matter that needs the help of the lord to find a way, and now with the rapid expansion of the population around Laoshan, it not only brings a huge burden to Laoshan, but also makes Laoshan have certain hidden dangers." One of the biggest hidden dangers is the plague, although there are disinfection and plague prevention methods replaced by the main bus, but the law can only prevent, but can not diagnose and treat. ”

"At present, tens of thousands of people have gathered in the entire Laoshan Mountain, but there are only a dozen doctors who understand medical skills, and most of them are mediocre in medical skills. The real top doctor, we don't have one in Laoshan. ”

"Some time ago, someone in my Laoshan had an emergency, and all the doctors on the mountain were helpless, and in the end, Da Lang never invited a doctor with superb medical skills in his county to save the person."

Wei Shuo frowned when he heard this, the shortage of doctors is indeed a big problem. Ancient people did not attach great importance to doctors, but Wei Shuo came from modern times, and knew very well that the level of medical care often affected the reproduction of the population and the average age of the entire population in an era.

"This is indeed a big problem, and it will not be solved in a while, I will instruct the Zhuqi County side to strengthen the recruitment of doctors, and you should not relax, give an explanation to our outgoing personnel, and let them pay more attention to the whereabouts of the doctors around. In the future, it would be better to build a medical school so that the problem could be solved at its root. ”

Just as Wei Shuo and the three of them were chatting, a person hurriedly came in outside, only to see him holding an invitation in his hand, and said, "Lord Qiqi, Cao Tingshi invites your adult to Linzi for a talk." ”

Sure enough, what should come is still coming! Wei Shuo took the invitation and a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, Cao Wei should be the most powerful enemy that Wei Shuo was about to face after coming here. Not only because Cao Wei has heavy troops, but the most important thing is that the local family in Qingzhou will probably also stand on Cao Wei's side.

Cao Wei's army of 100,000 was terrifying, but the blockade of the family clan gave him even more headaches. The land around Laoshan is barren, and if you want to feed the tens of thousands of people in Laoshan, you can't do without the support of other places in Qingzhou. If the family is determined to blockade Laoshan, only a small Qingdao port may not be able to meet the development needs of Laoshan in the future.

"Lord, it seems that Cao Wei is a little impatient to solve my Laoshan Mountain!" Zhu Wen took the invitation and observed, "What does the lord plan to do?" ”

Wei Shuo pondered for a while and said: "Cao Wei is a person with little ambition, who took the initiative to break away from Wang Mi and set up his own name, which seems to be full of enterprising spirit and has a clear atmosphere. However, after seizing Qingzhou, Cao Wei became hesitant and complacent. Such people are easily satisfied, and I think that as long as we are willing to give up a certain price, we may not be able to live peacefully with them. ”

"But how much benefit do we have to give up before Cao Wei will be satisfied? If he has too much appetite, do we have to slap his swollen face and satisfy him? Hearing this, Zhang Dalang frowned.

Zhu Wen said angrily! "Humph! Think beautifully! The final distribution of benefits must not be left to the other party's decision, but must be negotiated between the two sides. Although our Laoshan strength is not as good as the other party, we will not let Cao Wei handle it. It's really going to push us into a hurry, it's a big deal to break up in two! ”

Wei Shuo comforted Zhu Wen with his hands, and then said: "Cao Wei's most urgent matter at the moment is nothing more than the construction of Guanggu City, and it is not a simple matter to rebuild the Qingzhou Governance Office, and it requires a lot of manpower and material resources. If we can give Cao Jianshi a little help in this regard, I think he will reconsider his relationship with my Laoshan. ”

That's right, Wei Shuo hit the idea of cement! There is no better building material than cement to build a city. If Wei Shuo could supply cement in exchange, presumably Cao Wei would look up to Laoshan in the face of building Guanggu City. At that time, if you give up some green salt interests to Cao Wei, you can at least win three to five years of peace for Laoshan.

If it's another three or five years, hum! At that time, I'm afraid it won't be Cao Wei who won't let go of Laoshan, maybe it should be Wei Shuo who will sweep the entire Qingxu Erzhou!

There is still more than half a month before he visits Cao Wei in Linzi, and during this time, Wei Shuo found a few craftsmen who fired porcelain on Laoshan Mountain to form a cement technology research team, which was specially used to solve the problem of firing cement.

A few craftsmen who were pulled by Wei Shuo didn't know what cement was at all, in fact, Wei Shuo himself didn't know how cement was fired. He had only seen a few records of firing cement in a few time-traveling novels, and most of them were unknown.

Now he can only rely on vague memories to work hard with the craftsmen. Fortunately, Wei Shuo remembered several key raw materials and general formulas for firing cement, and the rest was to improve the kiln body with craftsmen and trial produce cement with different proportions. As a result, the emperor paid off, and after a lot of practice, the craftsmen finally made the original ordinary cement.

Although the quality of cement cannot be compared with that of later generations, it is much stronger than the ancient use of glutinous rice to build city walls. With cement as a gift, if you want to come to Linzi this time, Wei Shuo doesn't have to worry about Cao Wei turning his face.

On this day, it was finally the day when Wei Shuo set off for Linzi, seeing that Wei Shuo insisted on going alone, Zhu Wen and Zhang Dalang took Wei Shuo's arm and persuaded: "Lord, the future of this trip to Linzi is uncertain, why don't you let me wait to go instead of the lord?" ”

"Hey, Cao Thorn Shi generously invited me to Linzi as a guest, how can I be afraid of someone and dare not go? If outsiders find out, it will make the world laugh at Wei! Please rest assured, Wei has his own opinions, and he will not dare to turn his face. Don't forget, I am still an official of the Great Jin Dynasty, and I have a good relationship with Xuzhou Thorn Shi Zu in the south. If Cao Wei doesn't want to block the way to return to the imperial court in the future, he will never dare to harm me! ”

Although Wei Shuo was full of confidence, Zhu Wen and Zhang Dalang were still worried, but Wei Shuo had already made up his mind and could not change it. In desperation, he had to select the most elite 200 people from the Laoshan escort team to serve as Wei Shuo's escort to Linzi, responsible for protecting his safety.
