Ten days later, Li Longji and others, who were rushing all the way by boat, arrived at the entrance of Pengli Lake. On the way, they also encountered a few fleets calling back to the Bohai Sea, as well as hot air balloons flying elsewhere.
The matter is almost over. People in various places cannot always take a place to stay, especially the Bohai Sea. This time Japan participated. If the gunboat does not go back, it is easy for others to think that Datang is not angry with them. Intensified.
In addition to Gao Lishi, Queen Wang, Concubine Wu Hui, and Pan'er two little guys who followed Li Longji, there was also Wang Ju. He was not an official in Hangzhou, and he stayed home from an escaped job.
He used to have a very good relationship with Li Longji. Now that things have passed, he naturally has to follow him. As for his officials, he is not in a hurry now. When the time comes, he will return to the capital to make arrangements. Anyway, it can't be bad.
The main meeting of his fishing association in Hangzhou was also handed over to others. He also took many fishing enthusiasts to follow on other boats, saying that he took them to Luzhou to see, where the sea and the sea in the south of the Yangtze River are similar. What is different, is it the same when fishing.
To put it bluntly, he just doesn't want to give up this power in his hands. Even though he is only a fishing enthusiast, but now that can enter the association, except for those who specialize in money and good fishing skills, all the others are wealthy people in the family.
With this group of people in their hands, what Datang needs to do in the future will also be convenient for communication. According to his grandson, it is to develop the Fishing Association into a transnational organization.
It is not only necessary to fish in Datang. Under the premise of protection, where the army will fight in the future, they must also go outside to fish, catch fish all over the world, and operate the Fishing Association as a huge force.
Wang Ju was not stupid at all, and at that time he thought of what his grandson was playing.
It may not be difficult for the army to fight in the past with the support of advanced weapons. The difficult thing is how to occupy the place and let the locals occupy it. It is absolutely not possible. Cultivate a pro-Datang force. What should I do if the family does not kiss in the future
The best way is to move the people from the place where the fight is finished to Datang, send the people of Datang there, and send the people there, if all the money is paid by the Zhang family and the court, it will cost too much.
Following the Fishing Association, there will be no fish in Datang elsewhere, and they can be shipped back to sell for more money, so as to attract members to find ways to get people over and take up space, but also get a way of making money.
At the same time, it can promote the construction of roads and speed up the speed of exchanges, lest the colonization time is too long. In the past, the Datang people wanted to be independent, and when the information and transportation could not send soldiers there in a short time, arrange the people in the past. I have to change it back after a few years.
"The future is still too long, and I don't know if I can see that day." Wang Ju said with a sigh, thinking about the future.
He was sitting with Li Longji on the top of the tallest cabin on the ship looking at the scenery. What he said was heard by Li Longji and asked, "Why is it so long?"
"Your Majesty, it was the minister who thought that Datang would occupy more space in the future. Soldiers are easy to come out. However, the occupation of the land is difficult for the people to travel. It is inconvenient to manage, and the local management is inconvenient, and there is a danger of not following orders. , It's difficult."
Wang Ju shook his head and continued to sigh.
Li Longji was taken aback for a moment, and then he laughed, and said: "I'm worried about it, this is not difficult, it's nothing more than building a road, just repair the road, and wait for you to get to know it after you take the train. The train is fast. In the future, wherever roads are being built in Datang, officials will no longer be sent out to punish them. It is not punishment, but a blessing for them."
Gao Lishi also smiled and said: "What your Majesty said is that Luzhou used to be the place where the distribution was made. Now the court has long stopped sending people to Luzhou. Once the distribution is made, the officials who are distributed will go directly by boat. People are very happy. Waiting for the railway to be repaired, the land will also work. The former barren land has become a resort for blessings."
"Yes, Luzhou is good, Xiaobao and the others have the ability. They used to make a place where no one wanted to go, but they made it like what it is now. There is also Hangzhou, which used to have many fishing villages and life is not easy. Since water transportation has developed, With more boats, Hangzhou has turned into a prosperous place.
But the minister heard that the Iron and Steel Datang for railway construction will be gathered together, and many places will be damaged. If the railway is not used, other roads will be repaired. Okay, now Datang's money will be used again. It shouldn't be enough. "
Wang Ju first followed the flattery, and then talked about the difficulties of the court, especially the difficulty of giving birth to children and helping to raise them. He had never thought about it before and didn't dare to think about it, but now the court has some money, but he is worried that it will not be enough.
Li Longji laughed again: "Hehe, Qing still has a short time in contact with Xiaobao. I don't know Xiaobao's ability. I always stay with him, and I also have an understanding in my heart. Whoever builds a road must spend money from the court. Can you just spend the people's money, and you can issue national bonds.
When the road is repaired, you can "buy" things from other places and return to Datang to sell the money, and you will return the profit from the national debt. You can also allow businessmen to buy shares and build the road. They will take part of the benefits. In the case of transportation, the goods transported get profits to them.
In the future, if the imperial court is not leading the business, then the road will be charged. When the cost is recovered and when it ends, the manpower is also cheap. Give something to eat and give some money from Datang. People from other places are very willing to come over and do hard work. Tired to work.
Now I’m telling you that you probably don’t think thoroughly. When you go back to Beijing, I will work with me. I will show you something good. It should be done by then. The officials of the imperial court have become a shareholder. hehe. "
"What kind of baby is it?" Wang Ju really didn't know how powerful the Ministry of Industry could be. He just knew that the three most important departments of Datang were in the hands of Xiaobao and Juanjuan.
One is Sinong Temple, which is in charge of the research of new varieties of various plants in Datang, and at the same time is responsible for issues related to agriculture and breeding.
The second is the Datang Bank. It is in charge of Datang’s money, especially taxes and so on. It goes directly to the bank. There is no need to transport the copper money towards the capital as before, and the money consumed on the road will take up a lot of money. A large part.
In the entire Datang, if the bank suddenly collapsed, it is estimated that many people would cry, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that it was the lifeblood.
The third place is the Ministry of Industry, which gathers the best craftsmen in all aspects of Datang, and there are other techniques and theories waiting for the craftsmen to learn thoroughly.
Not only provide civilian things, but more importantly, the technology used by the military. Whoever masters the Ministry of Industry will control the supply of weapons and future updates.
Even in terms of message transmission, things are made by the Ministry of Industry. It is said that during production, a large proportion of damage is caused, but money is still invested in the production. The importance of the message is self-evident, otherwise there is no need for beacon fire. The table is up.
These three things have always been in the hands of Xiaobao and Juanjuan. It can be said that they have great power. To put it in a bad way, now they can let the emperor of Tang Dynasty change their surnames. After some war, they must be the one who wins the final victory. .
What the emperor said should belong to the Ministry of Industry, because it was only heard that officials from the imperial court invested money to establish a new "company" in the Ministry of Industry.
"Is the steam engine smaller? Can it walk on the road like a carriage?" Wang Ju thought for a while, and asked without waiting for others to answer.
"Qing is really extraordinary. Although it is not in the middle, it is not far away. It is a thing that replaces the carriage on the road, but it is not a steam engine that becomes smaller. No matter how small the steam engine becomes, you have to burn things. Where can you go to add water? And combustible things? Newly made things, Xiaobao and Juanjuan call it an internal combustion engine.
It also needs water and things to burn, but not much is needed. When I came out, a finished product was already ready, but when it was actually used, it would take some time. The things made are prone to breakage and the technology is not good.
We don’t have many of the techniques mentioned by Xiaobao and Juanjuan, and we can only frustrate some things out with a file, not even a single bit. "
When Li Longji talked about technology, he was full of sorrow. He was also worried that someone had a country with great technology.
Wang Ju asked wonderingly: "File? Can you make a good thing with a file?"
"Exactly." Gao Lishi said: "Don't underestimate this file. Now the apprentice wants to make an apprentice. It's not like before. They learn more systematically. When they graduate, give the apprentice an iron rod, and A file.
Apprentices make things according to various requirements. The more complex the things they do, the higher the evaluation at graduation, and the better things they can do in the future. At the same time, the higher the salary, the simplest one is to use two things to make one. The small hammer is not only in the correct shape, no problem in using it, but also smooth to the touch. "
"Huh?" Wang Ju opened his mouth and said in surprise: "An iron rod and a file must at least make a hammer like that? It's simple, but difficult? How is it possible?"
"Why is it impossible? I personally see them doing it. Every other day, I bring it to me and show it to me until they finish it. From now on, the most important department of Datang is called Datang Heavy Industry. There must be a certain number of people working in it. It’s not a good thing, unlike now, first to deal with the use of people.
The requirements of Xiaobao and Juanjuan are very high. It is said that it is usually two pressure seals. When workers are not using pressure equipment, they can blow with their mouths to know the degree of sealing. The error of the workpiece is 0.2 mm. , You can see it directly by touching it with your hands or looking at it with your eyes, etc.
Regardless of whether there are more advanced tools to measure, people who do things must do it based on their own experience and ability, because this is the heritage of heavy industry. They said that in some places, the same parts are assembled by different people. , The accuracy is different, even if they are given the same measuring tools. "
When Li Longji spoke, it seemed that the people in the Department of Engineering of Datang were able to do so, and he seemed very proud.
Wang Ju was silly when he heard it. He wondered if the things Xiaobao and Juanjuan said could be done by humans. As for the places that the emperor said, it was naturally the place where the superiors came out from behind. That's how it is.
When Wang Ju was shocked, from a distance, a fleet of ships appeared on the lake, and it gradually grew larger.
"Your Majesty, Xiaobao and the others are here." When Gao Lishi saw the fleet, he took a binoculars from the person next to him and took a closer look, and said to Li Longji.
"I just came? I thought I would come over and they were waiting for me, but I didn't expect to let me wait. After a while, I met to see how I can deal with them, huh!"
Li Longji said with a dissatisfaction.
After waiting a little more than a quarter of an hour, the two fleets finally merged, and the long rope was thrown over. Someone immediately laid a rolled wooden plank in the middle, and used rope to put on the narrow wooden planks, like a summer mat. .
As soon as the plank was laid on, a small figure ran over from the opposite side, with his calf upside down and threw directly into Li Longji's arms, saying: "Uncle Emperor, I miss you all, do you miss me, do you? If I didn’t think about it, I wouldn’t be happy."
"Oh, stay lighter, yes, yes, think, think about it during the day and night, and also think about eating, let me see, is it thin? No, it's sinking again, how did you eat it?"
Li Longji hugged the taller Beckham and said happily.
“I’m still young, I’ve been growing, of course I’m sinking, I’m not fat, I’m not fat at all, I have exercises, but I still caught people in the water? We are great, Brother Xiaohai is injured, the emperor uncle wants to avenge us , Tidy up people, but you are not allowed to say brothers and sisters."
Beckham waved her fist and said that she was catching people in the water.
Li Longji just said that he would wait for someone to come and clean up. At this moment, he said quickly: "If you don't clean up, your brother and sister have done a great job, and you also have done a good job. You want to reward, say, what do you want?"
"What do you want? I, I don't know what I want? Just thinking about seeing the emperor's uncle happy, and when I turn around to discuss it with them, we will ask for it after we have discussed it. We don't want it in vain. Go down into the sea to get something to eat for the emperor's uncle and let my brother do it, okay?"
Beckham was thinking about it, but she still didn't think of what rewards should be given after doing meritorious service. Before, she only thought about meritorious service.
"What about me?" Wang Ju asked when he saw his granddaughter come and rushed to the emperor's side, sinking his face.
"Ah? Grandfather, grandfather, let me tell you..." Beckham left Li Longji again and threw himself in Wang Ju's arms. No one was guilty.
While talking, the other children, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan also came over, as well as the two brothers and sisters Pan’er who had stayed in the cabin. They also ran over and screamed happily. Remember people, know that this one in front of me is my father, look around, looking for my mother.
"Zhang Xiaobao, Zhang Jiedu, you are so courageous, you dare to let me wait for you and say, what should be the crime?" Li Longji stared when he saw Zhang Xiaobao.
"Hey, the minister, please forgive your majesty, the minister deserves ten thousand deaths. The minister should first throw aside the livelihood of Xunyang, first wait for your majesty, and the minister will talk to the people of Xunyang and say that he promised them first. If you don't do it, wait until your majesty calms down. What do you think, your majesty?"
Zhang Xiaobao bowed to plead guilty.
"Don't take the people to scare me, I ask you, how should we end this matter?" Li Longji asked about the people caught.
