Chapter 119: Opportunity
Lao Jiu Yinyu asked rather depressedly: "Starling brother, why did Zhang Pengxi refuse to see guests for days?" Didn't the Fourteen Party want to recruit officials? ”
"It's better not to solicit." Lao Shiyin said with schadenfreude: "I want to see what happens to those wall grasses?" ”
Yin Yu shook his head slightly, and said in a deep voice: "The fourteenth brother often acts unexpectedly, since we can't figure out his thoughts, we don't have to bother to think about it, it is a serious matter to do a good job in the transformation of the outer city and the pilot of the industrial and commercial miscellaneous tax innovation. ”
"That's what Starling said." The two of them hurriedly agreed.
Seeing that the matter of the Shangzun title had successfully attracted the attention of the imperial court, the crown prince Yinren naturally would not miss such a good opportunity in Chapter 119, and in the next few days, he began to frequently contact his cronies and actively arrange them in secret.
When the next dynasty returned to Yuqing Palace, the crown prince Yinren muttered to himself while letting the palace maid change his court clothes, "It's really hot this day, it's only March day, and it's almost June." After muttering, he was stunned, yes, it's been sunny for a few days? Qingming didn't see any rain, his heart jumped, and he commanded outward: "Someone told Zhu Tianbao to go to the study and wait." ”
After changing into casual clothes, Yinren hurried to the study, and as soon as he entered the door, he split his head and asked, "Jiuru, how long has it been sunny in a row?" ”
Zhu Tianbao didn't guard against Yinren asking him this question, so he couldn't help but be stunned, quickly recalled it, and then said cautiously: "Back to the prince, the last time it rained seemed to be on February 24. After saying that, he also reacted, it hasn't rained for half a month, this is March, will there be a big drought this year?
Yinren had already ordered repeatedly: "Immediately send someone to collect the rainfall in Zhili, Shandong, Shanxi, Henan, Shaanxi, Chahar and other places, and ask another person to ask Qintian Supervisor to see what they say?" ”
The French missionary of Qintian, Ji Lian, was reporting to Kangxi in Chapter 119 at this time, "...... North of the Yellow River, no heavy rainfall is expected for three months. ”
Kangxi heard this, his brows suddenly locked deeply, the drought in the spring equinox, the impact is too great, this is the season of sowing and raising seedlings, if the drought continues, the blow to the people's hearts can be imagined, although a group of officials boasted of the prosperous world, but he knew very well in his heart that the small people were just barely mixed with food and clothing, normal years, the time of green and yellow is the most difficult time, once there is a famine, this day will be sad, he groaned for a long time, he ordered: "Xiao Yongzao, the minister of the study, wrote the provinces, governments, and governments north of the Yellow River. County officials prepare for the disaster. In addition, the household department sent personnel to the two rivers and Huguang to raise grain. ”
As soon as Yinren got the news, he excitedly turned around the study a few times, and the opportunity he had been waiting for finally came!
Xiamen,
Xiamen built the city late, in the former Ming Hongwu 27 years (1394) before the start of the construction of the city, after the completion of the Xiamen city, after several rise and fall, several times expansion, widening and repair, in the second year of Kangxi and 20 years was destroyed by Zheng Chenggong's troops twice, the current Xiamen city is Jinghai Hou Shilang in the Kangxi 24th year in the old city site rebuilt and expanded, Xiamen is now an important link in the southeast coastal defense chain, the strategic location is extremely prominent.
It has been a few days since Yinzhen arrived in Xiamen, and although Shi Shiwei has only just taken over the Fujian Naval Division, he has left all military affairs behind and accompanied Yinzhen to inspect before and after every day.
Yinzhen only looked at it every day and didn't say anything, and after a few days, he didn't say a word about support, Shi Shiwei did everything possible to hint and remind, and provoked the conversation, Yinzhen just didn't pick up the stubble, and Shi Shiyu was very depressed for a few days.
And Yande and Liu Zhisheng brought out by Yinzhen were not idle, but they were energetically picking boats and soldiers in the sailor camp, and after the two reports had been selected, Yinzhen resigned to Shi Shiyu.
When did Shi Shiyu suffer such a big loss, he was busy inviting Yinzhen to the Admiral's Mansion on the grounds of cantonment, and before the banquet was opened, he said with a shy face: "Fourteenth Master, you have also watched this Fujian Sailor for a few days, such a big stall, and the general has just taken over, the Fourteenth Master must support it, right?" ”
Yinzhen smiled slightly: "Of course I want to support it, so let's do it, most of the warships of the Fujian Navy Division are indeed old, and this king's shipyard in Shanghai, after the construction of the ocean-going fleet, will replace all the large and small warships of the Fujian Navy Division, how about it?" ”
Doesn't this mean that I didn't say it, after the construction of the ocean-going fleet is completed, the shipyard will return to the imperial court, isn't this a blind eye? Shi Shi's stomach was full of slander, if he didn't play with people like this, he immediately squeezed out a bitter gourd face, "The fourteenth master, the general is also the vice president of the Naval Academy, the fourteenth master came to Xiamen for a trip, and he left such a sentence, how can the general go out to meet people?" ”
Isn't it just ten broken ships, and I'm embarrassed to remind you? Yinzhen scolded secretly, but said with a serious face: "It's not that this king doesn't support you, the state has specially allocated funds for coastal defense, and the so-called name is not right, then it is not good, you can't let the lord pay the money and be charged with destroying the court system, right?" ”
As soon as he heard this, Shi Shiyu immediately grinned and said: "I didn't give this to the emperor and report to the Ministry of War, but you have also seen it Fourteenth Master, the soldiers of this Fujian Navy Division are compared with the navy, and they are called Huazi, and they don't dare to look up when they walk in the past few days, for fear of seeing their resentful expressions, Fourteenth Master, you see, can you change the clothes of the soldiers first, and dare to speak loudly before you will speak in the future." ”
Why is this guy such a? This is too far from the record on the information, Yinzhen shook his head rather depressed and said: "The navy's military uniform is specially approved by the emperor, if the sailor wants to change his clothes, you should write an excerpt to the emperor first." ”
Do you want to write an excerpt again? Shi Shiyu was also very depressed, such a big financier came to Xiamen, and if he didn't pluck the roots and hairs, it was really faceless, he smiled and said: "Then don't change the navy uniform for the time being, now is the season to change spring and autumn uniforms, just give the soldiers two sets of new coats." ”
"Didn't this king give Shi Junmen a 60,000 meeting gift?" Yinzhen looked at Shi Shiyu with a smile, "Isn't it enough to change the number coat of the soldier?" ”
"Hehe, how dare you hide your secrets." Although Shi Shiyu was smiling, his face was like a bitter gourd, "The Fujian Navy has not issued three consecutive death and disability pensions, and the 60,000 yuan has not been made up for the three years at one time." ”
Yinzhen's expression suddenly became gloomy, and he said coldly, "Wu Ying (the former admiral of the navy) dared to embezzle the soldiers' death and disability pensions? ”!!!
