Chapter 941 When I come back, thousands of sails will compete!
Su Dingfang Surong said: "Don't worry, Mr. Marquis, after you leave, the general will insist on patrolling the offshore waters according to your instructions. Any smuggling merchant ships, no matter whose goods they belong to, will be seized without mercy!"
He has now been officially granted the title of Commander-in-Chief of the Royal Navy of the Third Grade by the Emperor. He has been in the military for half his life and finally has the opportunity to show off his skills on his own. Therefore, he is extremely grateful to Fang Jun.
Cooperating with the Municipal Shipping Department to investigate maritime trade smuggling will be Su Dingfang's most important task in the future.
Only by severely cracking down on smuggling can the position of the Shipping Department be stabilized and gradually grow.
Pei Xingjian also expressed his position: "The lower officials will also be able to supervise the Shibo Division and Huating Town, so the Marquis does not need to worry."
These two people can be regarded as the two leaders of cultural relics under Fang Jun. They are devoted to Fang Jun and are willing to follow Jiwei.
Fang Jun relaxed his depressed mood and said with a smile: "Don't worry, everyone, at the latest when His Majesty vows to march eastward, I will definitely return to the position of chief executive! How can we not create the situation that we have worked so hard to create?" Let Zhang Liang and others pick the peaches?”
Speaking of this, Liu Renyuan laughed and said: "Zhang Liang has been having a hard time recently. The imperial court sent a marching commander, Shi, to oppose Zhang Liang all day long. Now Zhang Daguo can be regarded as suffering from internal and external troubles and repeated suffering. Wow hahaha! ”
Everyone gloated for a while.
Fang Junqi asked: "Where did the deputy general manager come from? Who is he?"
Pei Xingjian smiled and said: "Feng Deyi's son, Feng Yandao."
Fang Jun suddenly realized.
The Feng family is a serious official family, and all their ancestors hold high positions. Feng Yan said that this person was not old, but he had no contact with Fang Jun. In terms of seniority, this gentleman married the daughter of the great ancestor Li Yuan and was considered Fang Jun's elder.
However, the relationship between the royal family is too chaotic, and seniority is simply not clear...
However, Fang Jun was also a little curious: "I have heard of this letter. It is said that this person is a handsome gentleman, full of knowledge and gentle as jade. How come he is at odds with his superiors as soon as he takes office?"
Zhang Liang cannot escape the secret support of Changsun Wuji and other aristocratic family members. The Feng family is even more noble, and his relationship with the aristocratic family members is even more intricate. Without the support of the aristocratic family members, he would not be able to come to Jiangnan to take up his post.
Normally, these two should be comrades in the same trench. How come they are actually competing against each other?
Pei Xingjian asked curiously: "Does the Marquis not know the reason?"
Fang Jun said in astonishment: "Should I know this?"
Pei Xingjian laughed loudly: "Speaking of which, it does have a lot to do with the Marquis. The eldest princess of Huainan is gentle and virtuous. Zhang Liang once proposed marriage to His Majesty for his son Zhang Shenwei. At that time, Your Majesty was still considering it, and it was revealed that the Marquis was making trouble for General Zhang. Zhang Shenji lost his arm due to the scandal, and Zhang Liang's reputation plummeted. Zhang Shenji was also afraid that his brother would marry the emperor. Afterwards, the princess' reputation greatly increased, which cut off her ability to embezzle family property, so she slandered the eldest princess of Huainan several times. His Majesty was annoyed by Zhang Liang's lack of family tradition and refused the marriage, and instead married the eldest princess of Huainan to Feng Yandao. How can Feng Yandao look good in the face of the Zhang family who has slandered his wife several times?”
Fang Jun smiled, but he didn't know there was such a reason.
Everyone chatted and laughed for a while, and Fang Jun said with emotion: "We have worked hard to create such a good situation now, and we must do our best to maintain it. Whether it is the Shipping Department or the salt field, even if both are irreversible, we must do our best to ensure the operation of the manufacturing bureau. For research and development, if you want money, give money, if you want people, give people, and absolutely no other Lift a finger! In addition, the construction in Da Nang should support Liu Rengui. In the near future, from Datang to Da Nang and from Da Nang to Arabia, it will be a golden waterway, bringing wealth It will enrich the Tang treasury and enhance the power of the entire empire!”
For Fang Jun, creating a game is the best platform to show his golden finger as a time traveler. Only by ensuring the continuous research and development of the manufacturing bureau can the era of hot weapons emerge early, and the Tang Dynasty be able to dominate all countries in the world and maintain absolute suppression for a long time!
Needless to say, Da Nang is actually the property of the Royal Navy, so how could you not be interested in it?
Everyone solemnly accepted the order.
They have all seen the power of artillery and know that this mysterious manufacturing bureau is the culmination of all Fang Jun's hard work. Therefore, they all understand the importance of the manufacturing bureau and no one dares to be careless.
After some friendship, Fang Jun smiled and said: "Early tomorrow morning, I will set off to return to Chang'an, and Huating Town will be entrusted to you. Remember, as long as Huating Town is prosperous, your future will be bright. Those aristocratic families The bosses are greedy for the industry we have created and are eager to get a piece of the pie, so let me return to Chang'an to fight with them and let them see the fighting power of the best stick in the world!"
Hearing this, everyone laughed.
Speaking of which, Fang Jun returned to Chang'an this time. It was true that he was forced by the family members to swallow his anger, but in fact, Fang Jun had a little intention of creating conflicts and diverting attention...
Everyone thought of Fang Jun's illustrious achievements in Guanzhong in the past, and couldn't help but mourn for those noble families.
*****
Tongguan guard Cheng Mingzhen sat listlessly in the duty room beside the pier. He wrapped himself in clothes and took a sip of hot rice wine to feel slightly warmer.
It's cold in Guanzhong. It would be okay if it were winter. After all, you would be used to the bone-chilling cold every day. This kind of sudden cold weather at the beginning of winter is the most unbearable. Looking up at the merchant ships waiting to pass the lock on the river outside the window, Cheng Mingzhen sighed, and his mind involuntarily drifted to the far south...
Cheng Dashou had had enough of these boring days day after day. He originally thought he could go to Jiangnan to create a new situation and live a wonderful life, but unexpectedly, his father sternly told him not to go to Jiangnan to seek refuge with Fang Jun. He didn't dare not listen to his father's words, but every time Cheng Mingzhen heard news from the south, he couldn't help but frown and sigh.
The battle of Niuzhuji, going to sea to suppress bandits, crossing the ocean to annihilate the real wax elephant soldiers...
One after another, each one of these is not shocking the world and shaking the government and the public?
Obviously he should have a share in this, but now he has to guard this broken barrier day after day. How can Cheng Mingzhen not become more and more depressed?
Just when I was feeling depressed, there was a sudden commotion on the river outside.
A fleet of hundreds of warships sailed upstream from the lower reaches of the river in a neat formation. Regardless of the shouts and curses from the merchant ships waiting to pass through the lock, they plunged straight into the front of the lock. The white sails filled the entire river in an instant, giving the impression of masts and sails blocking out the sky and the sun.
The entire river surface instantly became chaotic.
Cheng Mingzhen was furious. He stood up wrapped in his shirt, kicked open the door of the check-in room and walked out. He pointed at the river and shouted: "Whose fleet dares to disturb the order of the checkpoint? I really don't think Cheng dares to wait for you." Kick them all into the river? ”
Before he finished speaking, a loud voice came from a warship that was tightly surrounded by the fleet: "We haven't seen General Cheng for a long time. Not only has his fiery temper not diminished at all, but he has become more majestic with a whip and a prancing horse!" ”
Cheng Minzhen took a closer look, but it turned out to be a young nobleman with slightly dark skin in a brocade robe. He immediately said with great joy: "Hahaha, I wonder who is so evil. It turns out that it is the Marquis of Huating, Old Cheng, I want to see the Marquis. It’s been a long time!”
Who could have pushed aside all the merchant ships so arrogantly and domineeringly, if not Fang Jun?
Cheng Mingzhen sighed secretly, men should act like this, do whatever they want, pretend to be kind, courteous and frugal, so aren't they looking for trouble for themselves? This is my idol, Cheng Mingzhen...
Fang Jun laughed on the boat and said: "General Cheng is still enjoying himself here. Could it be that he has forgotten our original agreement?"
He was very optimistic about Cheng Mingzhen's prowess, and he had hoped to gather the "Seven Famous Generals" to summon the Dragon Ball. However, Cheng Mingzhen gave up on him and never went to Huating Town to meet him, which made Fang Jun very regretful.
Cheng Mingzhen smiled bitterly and said: "Master Hou, do you think the general will not want to do that? The general would dream of following the master on horseback, whipping his whip, galloping across the territory, and becoming the mighty power of the Tang Dynasty! It's a pity that things backfired. The twists and turns involved, I will tell you about it in my spare time." Mr. Hou, let’s talk. In short, I don’t want to..."
Fang Jun nodded and said: "All good things come hard, and we will still have the opportunity to charge into battle and create some fame in the future. This time I return to Beijing, and I will definitely stay for a while. If General Cheng is free, you might as well come to see me. Have a drink and get closer.”
Cheng Mingzhen was overjoyed: "In this case, it is better to obey orders than to be respectful!"
Being able to form friendship with this popular figure is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! As for what Dad said about Fang Jun's confrontation with the family members, which would end sooner or later, Cheng Mingzhen had long ago thrown it out of the window.
He only had one purpose in currying favor with Fang Jun, which was to take him into battle to kill the enemy and make him famous in foreign lands!
What is going on with a man who is wrapped in horse leather and keeps guarding a broken checkpoint all day long to exploit passing merchants?
After saying a few words, Cheng Minzhen shouted to the soldiers guarding the pass: "Open the gate quickly and let the Marquis go first!"
Upon hearing this, the merchants on the merchant ship were immediately dissatisfied. Isn't it too arrogant to break the rules so blatantly? There must always be order when passing through the lock. If a noble person comes, he must go first. Wouldn't it be impossible for merchant ships like them to pass through the river lock in a day?
Cheng Mingzhen laughed loudly, waved his hand, and said arrogantly: "This is someone's land, and someone has the final say! Either wait aside obediently, or get out of here!"
Mother!
I am doing this for your own good, do you know?
I remember that when the Marquis came out of the customs, the Dou family's boat was knocked over in front of him. Why the hell do you still dare to complain and don't want to live anymore?
Fang Jun stood on the boat and gestured to Cheng Minzhen with a fist pump, and then directed the fleet to pass the lock.
The mighty white striped warships filled the entire river, and the power of the thousands of sails competing in the show made the merchant ships on both sides full of complaints not dare to let go.
Fang Jun stood on the bow of the boat, looking at the wide surface of the Wei River and the majestic Chang'an City in the distance, feeling sad in his heart.
When I left, there were hundreds of rivalries;
When I return, thousands of sails will compete!
Chang'an, long time no see...(End of Chapter)
