In fact, Xu Qian convened everyone to discuss the matter for only half an hour, which was nothing more than a notice that the Great New Deal was imminent, and everyone was ready.

The reason for this arrangement is also intentional, because in fact, the more people who understand people's hearts, the less they will say, because if you talk about it, it is better to knock on the side, tell everyone about the benefits of the new deal, and speak with facts.

Therefore, Xu Qiancai was determined to watch the government and let the chief officials of various prefectures and counties come to Zhejiang, whether you are with the mentality of joining in the fun or you are here to make trouble at all, you will wait for you to watch the government.

What he has to do is nothing more than to set a tone and say the direction of the future, and when the tone is set, it cannot be changed, and if anyone wants to touch this red line, then everyone is the enemy.

Officials have no objection to this.

Immediately, the governor of Zhejiang, the yamen, and the governor's yamen consulted, and finally drew up a list, which prefects were in Hangzhou to observe the government, which county orders to Yuyao, which to Ningbo, after the distribution, everyone dispersed, took the documents of the governor's yamen, and rushed to various places.

In addition, there was also a group of people who were sent to the sea route pacification envoys, and one of them was the prefects of Quanzhou and Songjiang and several prefects, the reason why they were allowed to go to the sea route to pacify the envoys was because the officials of these two prefectures were the same as the Ningbo government, and the focus of their future governance was to cooperate with the sea route pacification envoys, so this cadre, headed by Yang Song, the prefect of Quanzhou, took a boat directly, all the way to Ningbo, and then boarded a ship to Shuangyu Port from Ningbo Port.

The first time to go to sea, it can't help but make people palpitate, many people are a little uneasy, even though Quanzhou prefect Yang Song has been in Quanzhou for several years, this Quanzhou is also near the sea, but the official boots stepped on this sea boat, still feel very unreal, as if he stepped into an unprecedented field, and this field made him overwhelmed.

On the boat, Yang Song and Nie Bao, the new prefect of Songjiang Mansion, were discussing, Nie Bao was originally the magistrate of Huating County, but now he was lucky because the prefect of Songjiang Prefecture died of illness, and he happened to have some credit for Pingwei at that time, so he was directly promoted to the prefect, which was an expedient measure of the imperial court, and he was originally a substitute, but later, he was simply corrected.

Nie Bao is Wang Xuemen and Wang Gen have a close relationship, so he agrees with Wang Xue's connection with the new policy, this time all the prefectures and counties are here to see the hot lot, but for him, it is to learn from the experience, after getting on the boat, he is still talking and laughing, and this Lord Yang got together to discuss what he saw and heard along the way.

"The port of Ningbo is so big, there are more than 70 trestle bridges alone, and there are more than 300 tugboats by the sea, but I don't know if the money allocated by the Money and Grain Bureau will allow Songjiang and Quanzhou to build such a port in the future."

Yang Song was a little worried that Fujian is not as good as Nanzhili, even if Nanzhili does not rely on the seaport, at least there is river transportation but Fujian's access to and out, only this Quanzhou port, so he has a little worry about shipping, with a sea route to appease the envoy, can it carry freight? After all, once Fujian's new policy, so many goods have to be shipped every day, and they are all piled up and the goods are out, which is by no means a joke.

Without thousands of ships to transport back and forth, I am afraid that I can barely afford to transport so many goods.

So this time, Yang Song is looking forward to taking a look at the strength of this sea route pacification envoy.

Nie Bao smiled slightly: "The old man is in Songjiang, and he knows a little bit, you can rest assured that the Money and Grain Bureau has silver, and the silver allocated by this port has always been willing." ”

"It's just a simple sea shipment, I'm afraid it's not appropriate. And this sea route pacification envoy, are there so many ships? ”

Nie Bao smiled and said, "Do you know how many docks in Zhejiang make sea ships?" ”

Yang Song shook his head: "Please also ask Lord Nie for advice." ”

Nie Bao said: "Nowadays, there are more than 130 of them, the smallest of them, a family can at least produce more than 30 sea ships a year, if it is a large dock, 100 ships a year is not a problem, these sea ships, although some are peddled to various countries, but quite a lot of sea ships, but are zoned into the sea route pacification embassy, in recent years, the sea route pacification envoy has a great demand for sea vessels, they are not only responsible for helping some merchants to transport goods, but also form an armed merchant ship to maintain the security of the nearby waters, now, there are more than 1,500 sea vessels, Moreover, the dock is still in a steady stream of supplies, and it is reported that there are more than 100,000 seafarers and guards working for the pacification envoy in Shuangyu Port and the nearby islands. ”

More than 100,000 people・・・・・・ this scale is really not small, Yang Song couldn't help but gasp.

"What do you think is too much? If you add the various islands of Shuangyu Port to do business, those who rely on the sea route to pacify the envoys for food have about 300,000 people, and these people have both Han and feudal people, some of them are trading on the islands, and some are doing foot power. There are more than 30 islands in Zhoushan, and now they are all places to appease the envoys by sea, don't look at the people as just a yamen, but the annual transactions are hundreds of millions. ”

"Hundreds of millions of ......" Yang Song, in fact, the news of the sea route pacification envoy is not widely spread, most of them will selectively forget him, after all, this yamen is really a bit non-mainstream for the Ming court, and their scope of activities, and overseas, basically rarely have any dealings with the inland, except for every three or five times, to send a sum of silver to the palace, and occasionally deal with Xu Qian in Zhejiang, other times, they just send a ship, arrive at Ningbo Port, and take the list to count the goods.

Of course, Yang Song would not pay attention to this giant yamen, he couldn't help but say: "These more than 300,000 people are enough for the population of a prefecture, I can't think of it, I can't think of it・・・・・・"

Nie Bao smiled: "More than 300,000 people, it's just the population around Zhoushan, you don't have to forget, in Korea, in the Wa Kingdom, and in Luzon and other places, they have all set up ports, and they are all operated by sea pacification envoys, and the vassal states now not only have to deal with the imperial court, but also have more energy to negotiate with the sea pacification envoys, why do you say this?" ”

Yang Song shook his head, confused.

Nie Bao said: "Because if you provoke the Ming court, it may be fine, but if you provoke the sea route to appease the envoy, it will not be fun." These words, can not be passed on, in fact, it doesn't matter if it is spread outside, the imperial envoys are to impeach, and there are people in the palace who are pressing, and they are making money outside, but in that Jingshi, I don't know how many people follow the profits, no matter who impeaches, if it blocks people's financial paths. Nie Bao smiled meaningfully.

Yang Song felt that his neck was a little cold, and he suddenly realized that he was a little naïve.

Zhejiang's new policy, he saw it in his eyes, but this sea route to appease the envoy, but gave him a kind of mystery that he had never had, hundreds of millions of silver trade a year, hundreds of thousands of people relying on it to feed, countless large ships, these many things, made him feel both novel and a little afraid of the unknown.

The ship traveled for several hours before reaching its destination.

In fact, they did not go to Shuangyu Port, but arrived at a big island, this big island, asked the sailors, only to know that it is called Zhoushan Island, the island area is not small, it is said that there are more than 100,000 people living on it.

It is placed in the Ming Dynasty, which is also a huge city, but here, there is no planning, the ships enter the port, out of the port, it is a stone house, it seems that the sea route pacification envoy has received the news in advance, so there is a hundred households to greet.

The surname of the hundred households is Lin, called Lin Hai, with a vicissitudes of life, bronze skin, and thirty years and months, but the spirit is excellent, and there are many words.

"My lord has come down to greet you, please go to the yamen of the pacification envoy first."

"Yes, this is Zhoushan, there are two yamen to pacify the envoy, one is here, the other is Shuangyu Port, #阝大人驻这里, and the deputy envoy Wang's line is in Shuangyu Port. Walk here, but be careful, there are many damned thieves here, and if you have something to steal, say hello to the yamen, and appease the envoy to find it for you. ”

"There are still a lot of thieves・・・・・・ there are still ・・・・・・" Yang Song hurriedly quickened his pace and got closer to Lin Hai, he did find that most of the people walking around here did not look like good people, there were not only men here, but also women, even women also showed their heads, and even when they saw people, they also flattered themselves.

Moral decay.

Yang Song scolded in his heart, and he found that as soon as he came ashore, there seemed to be a smell of alcohol everywhere, and even the oncoming person hiccuped and was drunk.

"Why don't you pacify the envoys?"

Lin Hai looked at Yang Song strangely, and said: "My lord, you don't know, begging for a life here are a group of desperate guys, these people can do everything, the thief is already an honest person, #阝大人说了, it is not easy for everyone to come out to beg for a living, you have to leave a way for people to live, forbid them to rob the house, prohibit them from fighting, is it even forbidden to steal, this is obviously against their own conscience, #阝大人说他杀了不少人, since half a year ago, they have to start accumulating virtue and doing good, so for thieves, The yamen side is more indulgent, and after being caught, just hit a stick or two of incense, there is no need to make everyone unhappy. Yes, if a few adults want to eat and drink, in the tavern on this island, you should pay attention to it, don't mention some taboo words, just let someone write a list later, Lord Deng said, you are distinguished guests, but well, the rules here in Zhoushan are different from the inland, adults have any questions, you can ask someone Lin, someone Lin is responsible for entertaining a few. ”

Chapter 3 is delivered, asking for a monthly pass.
