Section 506 Daming Royal Railway
Wang Wen, who was working in the Wenhua Palace, was a little confused.
A Wenhua Hall clerk continued to read: Nanjing Wharf to Nanjing Workshop District, can transport millions of stones back and forth every day. Holy order, the construction of the four major royal steel mills to the wharf, the construction of the Beijing to Nanjing railway, the completion of the second and third phases of the Nanjing-Hangzhou railway. All ministries should be the most important and should not be neglected.
"From Nanjing to the capital, if calculated at this speed, it will be more than 2,000 miles, which is a matter of more than ten hours. It can be arrived in one day and two nights, which is faster than the previous thousand-mile rush. This road should be repaired, Lord Wang! Chen Xun used to speak only after others had finished speaking, but this time he took the initiative to speak.
Wang Wen hurriedly got up: "Please ask Lord Chen for advice!" ”
"I can't talk about pointing, but this is also a little bit of heart for the old man. The old man thought that this inspectorate needed a competent candidate, and the old man thought that he would be transferred to Li Bing back. You must know that the silver used for this railway is a huge amount, not to mention tens of millions of taels. If someone thinks so much, not to mention how many silver taels they are greedy, that section of the road is not well repaired, and you and I will be shameless to treat the world if we miss state affairs. ”
Wang Wen bowed: "What Lord Chen said is very true, long live the lower official, then the lower official naturally has to be attentive." ”
Hu Hu laughed twice: "There are no outsiders here, we all understand why we chose you." For another person, it is not said that it is not done well, but it is not done beautifully. He Bai Ming Crane came back from tens of thousands of miles and dared to turn his face on the main hall, this railway is the hard work of Bai Ming Crane, from the beginning of the Nanjing plot, the old man said that he was not wrong, Bai Ming Crane is a masterpiece! ”
Wang Wen didn't want to admit it, but he had to admit that his niece was the first concubine of Bai Minghe, and this identity was very special.
However, the business made a mistake: "This railway is also an important matter of the country, I want to say it to Bai Minghe." Five days and five nights to Turpan. If it is really done, then the Western Regions is the territory under the wall of my Ming Dynasty, a car is tens of thousands of people, plus the Tianyin artifact, the Ming Dynasty is worry-free. ”
That being said, the railway also needs to be repaired mile by mile.
I don't know what year it was in Tulupan. But there's always an expectation that isn't!
"That's it, the old man also wrote a book, recommending Bai Chongyuan to enter the five grades, Lord Wang must always have a helper." Gao Gu thinks that putting the Bai family into it is also reasonable, Bai Chongyuan is not the kind of capable talent, but he is always a stable person, and it is still okay to take care of some logistical things.
This mention yì soon has a full ticket to guò.
Wang Wen handed over the matter of the Inspectorate on the same day, and went to Baifu in person. I saw Bai Chongyuan. There are some things that they can sit down and chat, after all, this railway is a matter that Bai Minghe started, and it is necessary to give the Bai family's officials a face. Mo said that Bai Chongyuan was Bai Minghe's second uncle, and the two of the Jiangxi Bai family in the Ministry of Industry also entered the first rank.
One of them was also transferred to Tianjin Wei with the relevant officials of the Ministry of Industry, and was in charge of the railway from Tianjin Wei to Tangshan.
The telegram was sent back to Nanjing, and Zhu Qiyu said in his heart that this was the normal result, and Bai Chongyuan's person, Zhu Qiyu, also learned a thing or two because of Bai Minghe's ascension.
Not a capable person. There will be no great achievements in the future, and he can barely be the sixth squire is the highest official in his life.
Da Ming's current official position. It's not that favors are enough, and even the Ming Emperor can't push an idiot to an important position as an official.
On both sides, Shira's fleet passed through the Strait of Malacca, replenishing a large amount of fresh water from Siam, dried fruits, and the first slowdown was near the island of Ceylon, and the fleet would continue to advance, leaving very fast new ships to accompany Shira. Dock at Ceylon together.
Ceylon, as early as a few decades ago, let the Three Treasure Eunuchs clean up once, and even the king was arrested back to the Ming Dynasty.
Later, it was amnesty from the Ming Dynasty and he was released.
After so many years, the older generation on the Ceylon side still remembers the fleet of the Ming Dynasty. Remember the Ming people. When Bai Minghe approached the island of Ceylon, there was a war going on here, the location was in the west and middle of the island, and the number of troops invested by both sides was innumerable.
"Send a boat over and fire a round of artillery on the seashore to tell them a truce!"
The White Crane needed this island, because it would be an important supply place for the Ming Dynasty's westward journey, and the White Crane had heard of it in later generations, and there was constant war between the two tribes. There is no right or wrong in this, and they all think that the other side has taken over their homeland. The majority of the population is the Sinhalese Kingdom, also known as the Lion Kingdom.
The Tamil Kingdom, which was small in number but more educated and more ferocious, came here with Emperor Ashoka, and according to them, the Sinhalese were outsiders.
"Cease the war, for mercy!" When the old monk heard the battle, he also came out of the cabin.
As soon as he saw the old monk, Bai Minghe's brows furrowed.
"I said Master Xuanbei, can you change a set of robes, this one......" Bai Minghe really didn't want to describe it, this set is made of pieces of cloth one after another, this is the believer's hundred clothes. It looks like a robe, but the material is really a headache for the white crane.
And there are still straw sandals on his feet, and there is no Zen staff on his hand at all, just a stick.
"Poor Monk ......"
"Don't, don't, don't" Bai Minghe was afraid, once the old monk spoke, it was estimated that he would be able to talk to himself about the Dharma for a day and a night. So Bai Minghe stopped, so he had to say: "Otherwise, I'll make a special set, we can wear this rag, your old man is the only master of our Ming Dynasty, and there are few people in the entire Ming Dynasty who say that it is higher than your Buddhism." ”
"No, it's just that Buddhism is indisputable, poor monks don't dare to speak up, and poor monks are not enough to cultivate......"
Bai Minghe was completely speechless, the clothes worn by this master were beggar's clothes in Nanjing, but the master really didn't stick to money, and he could wear straw sandals because the boat was sometimes very slippery, and it was very dangerous to be barefoot, otherwise he wouldn't even wear shoes.
Bai Minghe still wanted to persuade again, and the Byzantine Archbishop Ola also came out. Not only did he not help Bai Minghe, but he also persuaded Bai Minghe: "We also have ascetics in Orthodox Christianity, and Master Xuanbei is the real practitioner." The whole body is full of jewels, which is a blasphemy against the Lord, but a spread of the Lord's grace. ”
"A set, a silk robe, this represents the face of the Ming Dynasty, since the four monks are empty, then don't care what you wear."
Bai Minghe still wanted to persuade him again, but how could Master Xuanbei listen to him. I didn't even use the Buddha's language, and told Bai Minghe in a direct secular word: "Lord Bai, you also have compassion in your heart, and you are rich for all people." I also have compassion, you are a person, I am a heart, so you and I are both crossing people to be good. ”
"Don't persuade you, let it be as you please." Bai Minghe wanted to persuade again, but saw that the archbishop was also dressed in sackcloth.
What else can you persuade this, such a master can persuade himself, that is a miracle, it will really make the sun rise in the west.
After chatting for a few words, there was really a truce over there.
"Sue the chiefs on both sides of them, come to me." The white crane opened his mouth very simply and directly.
It was a blunt command, but the words were passed on.
The two sides of the war on both sides did not dare to have too much resistance when they saw this huge fleet, especially the dragon flag of the Ming Dynasty hanging above, the Ming Dynasty represents the powerful, even if the Ming people have not come here for decades, the Ming Dynasty as a great power in the East, still has a strong influence.
What's more, the sound of artillery is only a deterrent, not an attack, and the attack is on the uninhabited sea.
Soon, the three of them came to the front of the white crane, right on the deck.
These three people did not bow to the white crane first, but very solemnly bowed to the old monk Xuanbei, even if they are believers in Hinduism, they also respect Buddhist monks. Unlike the conflict between Orthodox and Protestant, they are both peace-loving, moderate denominations.
"Sit down and tell me why you're fighting?" The white-named crane sat at the top of the seat.
Naturally, people who came here are not small people, and they will not say such trivial things as who robbed whose grain and who robbed whose cattle. First, he introduced himself, a Hindu guru, who was not a leader, but a spiritual leader. On behalf of these nomads, he was the nobles of the Ming Dynasty who met the Ming Dynasty here.
The other two were two chiefs, the Montagnarese Sinhalese and the Haitian Sinhalese.
In fact, there is no difference between living in the mountains and living by the sea, and there is no difference in faith, in the era of inconvenient transportation, it is normal to divide into two major chiefs, and the lion kingdom is actually the Haitian Sinhalese.
"Since 300 years ago, Colombo was ours, and then more and more of them have been squeezed, and we just want to get our place back." The Tamil monk preached very calmly.
The Lion King, the leader of the Sinhalese people in Haiti, replied: "This was our home a thousand years ago." ”
"You're not natives here, you're from the Northern Territory!"
This Northern Territory is not the name of Australia, but the name of the South Asian subcontinent, and the two sides are about to quarrel, and the white crane slapped the table:
"Stop, don't make a noise. I love peace, and I like you here very much, and I like you two peoples very much, and you listen to me say a few words, and if what I say is not right, you can refute it. ”
"Please tell the nobles of the kingdom!" The leader of the mountain Sinhalese was purely bringing people to help with the fight, and it was not a bad thing for him not to fight.
"First of all, let me tell you about you in my heart. First of all, the Tamils, you are constantly promoting education, so that children can understand the written language as much as possible, and I heard that your children understand our Chinese language, and only half of them know Chinese. ”
Seeing that there was no reaction on the other party's face, Bai Minghe had no choice but to continue: "
Also, you are very brave, but you have forgotten that your ancestors' homeland is not Buddhism or Tianzhu Christianity. Although Ashoka believed in Buddhism, his glory represented the entire Tianzhu! Am I wrong? ”
"You're not entirely right." The Tamil monk gave a salute.
The white name crane heart said, what a straight person. (To be continued......)
