"Official, the flying pigeon from the Special Administrative Region has arrived."
"Oh, what are you talking about?"
The weather is already the cool season of autumn, Zhao Tuan leaned on the comfortable sand, the sun shined on Zhao Tuan's body through the glass window, and he was a little lazy, Zhao Tuan was squinting his eyes while basking in the sun while recuperating, and when he heard the arrival of the flying pigeon, he subconsciously opened his eyes.
"First, the fleet of the Taiwan Song Sea Trade has been released today. Second, the cannon is being prepared, and it is expected that a sample cannon will be sent to Lin'an in ten days. After that, Zhu Anben, the eunuch in charge of confidentiality, handed over the translated documents.
The flying pigeon transmission is not a new thing, this way of transmitting the message existed in the Tang Dynasty, but the flying pigeon transmission has a fly in the ointment, that is, the confidentiality of the transmission is not guaranteed, and the Great Song Dynasty is not without a precedent for using the flying pigeon to pass the book, including in the army, it has been used on a small scale. However, whether it is military information or the information transmission of the imperial court, it is important to pay attention to confidentiality, so the flying pigeon transmission cannot be effectively used in the transmission of information and military information of the imperial court.
However, since the adoption of the cipher system, the secrecy of the flying pigeon is comparable to that of human transmission of letters, even if someone intercepts the pigeon and gets the letter, without a codebook, it is still blind. Therefore, the flying pigeon transmission system is now piloting more and more areas, as for Lin'an and Taiwan, it has already achieved daily information transmission, and if there is any movement in Taiwan, Zhao Yan can receive the information in less than 12 hours.
"Tell me about the situation in the SAR these days."
Zhu Anben is now in charge of collecting information on Taiwan and analyzing it, and when Zhao Yan needs it, he will concisely tell the story of Taiwan's developments.
"Official, I heard that the newly built cannon is equipped with wheels, and when the two armies face each other, the cannon will be launched from the main formation, and the boom will be able to blow up the gold soldiers."
Originally, it was only necessary to state concisely and concisely, and striving for accuracy was the main point, but the funny thing is that Zhu Anben was a little exaggerated every time, and seemed to treat his work as a storyteller.
"Hehe, let's not talk about the cannon, when you see the power of the cannon with your own eyes, you will know. Let's talk about something else. ”
After the mine was sent to Lin'an last time, Zhao Tuan personally observed the power of the explosion, which is good, but the power is not as boasted by the outside world, and the power of the cannon must be greater, but you have to see it with your own eyes to know the end.
"The fleet that went to sea this time, the most worth talking about are the two whaling ships. Although this voyage is the same as other ships, it is a sail boat, but the previous sea trial has verified that the steam power drives the propeller to propulsion, tsk! There is no wind and it is automatic, and the ship is swift and incomprehensible. On this voyage, the two ships were also equipped with whaling guns, which can shoot both artillery arrows and swarm iron sand, which is simply incomparable. ”
Obviously, this Zhu Anben is still a weapon burner, and he relish it when he talks about this.
"I know."
"Chen Liang's "Alice in Wonderland" wrote that there is a windless automatic iron ship, and I heard that the next step is to build an iron ship. If the iron ship comes out, it must be invincible in the world. ”
This Zhu Anben will go off topic when he talks about it, but Zhao Tuan is old, and sometimes he likes to listen to some idle things, but he is not very annoyed by Zhu Anben's unreliable interpretation.
"Official, I heard that this voyage brought many decks of cards, and the people on the boat can play cards and play time every day, so that hundreds of people will not be bored on the boat every day, which is really a good way."
"Hehe, fighting the landlord is also a way to kill time."
Recently, the card game of fifty-four cards has become popular, of course, the cards are also produced in the Special Economic Zone, there seems to be a variety of ways to play, the concubines in the palace have nothing to do, and they have learned to play cards, Zhao Tuan is fond of Go, but he has also occasionally played "fighting the landlord", which is also interesting.
Zhao Yuan glanced at Qin Ben'an and sighed, Zhu Ben'an's vision is limited after all, this time the fleet went to Hokkaido, what Zhu Ben'an could say may be like this, let's find Zhou Bida and them to discuss.
The prime minister, the ruling and the crown prince came to the palace, and they didn't know what they were going to discuss today. Recently, the official family seems to have regained its diligent nature, and the official family had the intention of giving up the throne at the beginning of the year, but there was no mention of the Zen throne for several months. The whole court is talking about the ambition of the Northern Expedition, and in addition, the official family is most concerned about Taiwan, to be precise, the Kaohsiung Special Economic Zone.
Sure enough, the issue is inseparable from the affairs of the Special Economic Zone, and of course everyone has their own views on the Taiwan and Song Dynasty Haimao's trip to Hokkaido.
According to the old minister's hearsay, Hokkaido is twice as large as Taiwan, but the climate is cold, similar to Liaodong, but it is said that there is a huge fishing ground in its waters, which is said to be rich in whales, and the fishermen of the Great Song Dynasty have also caught whales, and it is said that they can get rich overnight if they catch whales. Tai Song Haimao went to Hokkaido, without him, tending to Lier! ”
Liuzheng hit the nail on the head, and almost said that Han Yanxuan was a profit-seeker who would immediately pounce on him as long as he smelled fishy.
The prince has some symptoms of depression recently, and he is a little unhappy with Zhao Luan's achievements in Taiwan, and he is also unhappy with Han Yanxuan, so he said:
"Hokkaido is located in a remote area, and it is a bitter cold place, I don't know the truth and reality, so I go rashly, in case I return, my son is worried that it will not only be useless, but also damage the prestige of the Great Song Dynasty."
Zhou Bida watched coldly, what Liuzheng and the prince said, in fact, it doesn't matter, Zhou Bida thinks that the key is to get the right view of what kind of view Zhao Tuan holds, there are ** opinions are not necessarily good, how to follow the emperor more strategically is the main purpose, anyway, it doesn't work to say his ** opinions, the prime minister of this dynasty is replaced like a marquee, to put it bluntly, the prime minister is just a decoration most of the time, and in the end it is Zhao Tuan's words.
Zhou Bida believes that he has touched the vein of the recent new thinking of the official family, so he said:
The old minister thought that going to Hokkaido was not only a move for profit, but also a trip of courtesy. Since the aborigines living on it once submitted to the previous dynasty, it is out of etiquette and righteousness that my Great Song Dynasty proclaimed the consolation of the state. In addition, after all, the Taiwan and Song Dynasty Haimao is not the official government of the Great Song Dynasty, and this trip is also the proper meaning of the title to seek the benefits it deserves. Since the climate of Hokkaido is similar to Liaodong, it must be convenient for raising horses, and in addition to whaling, you can also buy good horses to return, which can be described as both righteousness and profit. ”
Zhao Tuan smiled when he heard this, and his heart was still Zhou Bida's words, but Zhao Tuan didn't have to be pretentious, and said with a smile at the moment:
"As the saying goes, no profit can't be early, Taiwan and Song Dynasty Haimao are no different from ordinary Song Dynasty merchants, they must pay attention to a word of wealth in everything they do, if they don't make money, they probably won't go to Hokkaido for no reason."
"In the eyes of the ministers, what the official said is no longer correct, everything with Mao Geng's participation is a money-making business, and this matter is no exception."
When Ge Yi said this, those present felt that this was indeed the case.
Wang Lin immediately became curious:
"The Taiwan Song Dynasty Haimao has almost taken over the trade of the Special Economic Zone, and I don't know how much input has been made in the past few months."
"According to the accounts reported last time, Taisong Haimao made a considerable profit, earning nearly 80,000 taels of silver, or 240,000 yuan."
Liuzheng received Zhao Tuan's signal, and immediately reported the performance of Taiwan and Song Haimao.
I earned 240,000 yuan so quickly, and if I go on like this, I can pay it back!
"Where's Mao Geng?"
"It should be no less than 300,000." , stay correct, this is a random number.
"Mao Geng made money, mainly in the Special Economic Zone, hospitals, academies, building bridges and roads, etc., where does the money come from, and only when you make money." , Zhou Bida felt that he should speak for Mao Geng, not to mention that Tai Song Haimao was parasitic on Mao Geng to make money, and people gave up their profits, so they should give a fair evaluation.
"Speaking of Mao Geng, what is the current situation of Huaxi Construction Company?"
Zhao Tuan's curiosity also rose.
"I heard that Chen Liang is like a man of the year in Annan, the city of Zhancheng, and it seems that he is talking to Zhen Wax about building a palace." Obviously, Zhou Bida has mastered some of Chen Liang's movements.
The Great Song Palace was also renovated and renovated some time ago, with tap water, ceramic bathrooms, glass windows, and sand, but Zhao Tuan himself was very restrained, only a small-scale decoration. Zhao Tuan thought, once there are these temptations, it is very difficult to refuse, those small countries have limited strength, but they like to overhaul the palace, alas! Loser!
"It seems that this is indeed the case, as long as Mao Geng participates, almost all of them make a lot of money. In the bet with the official family, it seems that Mao Geng is sure to win and not lose. The official family, the minister congratulates the official family! ”
Zhao Yan laughed.
"I lost the bet, won Taiwan, and won a lot, yes, it is indeed gratifying."
Zhao Tuan looked at Zhao Dan, the prince was also in his forties in a blink of an eye, he had wanted to meditate in the past for a while, but now he had to wait.
"I originally intended to give the throne to the crown prince, but some time ago, a new mine was created, and all the ministers have seen the power of it, and today I reported that the new cannon is more powerful and there are many mines. Moreover, steam-powered warships were built, so that time changed and the Northern Expedition was expected. It's not that I'm in love with this position, but now that the situation is in favor of my Great Song Dynasty, I may be able to really restore the Great Song Dynasty in my lifetime! When I settle the Central Plains, I can rest assured that I will hand over the shift. ”
Zhao Tuan said, he couldn't help himself, and even lost his voice.
How many times did Zhao Tuan dream come to his mind, that is, the Northern Expedition was ashamed of Xue Jingkang, but after the failure of the Northern Expedition that year, he realized that the reality was so bleak. In Zhao Tuan's heart, the humiliating peace negotiation was an eternal pain in his heart, how many times, Zhao Tuan dreamed that one day he would be able to wash away this unforgettable shame. Now, although he is old, Zhao Tuan sees hope.
