Chapter 5090 Fatty Di
At sea, Xi Junmai took a group of students to observe the landing battle up close and the subsequent operations. It was not until it got dark that the soldiers ordered the soldiers to sail into the port, break down and sail, and prepare for the night.
Dinner is still seafood.
It is probably because of the fact that since Huating Town went to sea, there has been seafood for every meal for many days. Xue Yuanchao has a bad appetite and only ate a little bit. Di Renjie has a good appetite. He ate two bowls of rice, knelt a big lobster, stretched his waist and burped it, and his round face was full of enjoyment.
While buying water and tea, Xi Jun couldn't help but say, "You are young, but you are already a little round, so you have to take a proper diet."
Di Renjie disagreed with this and smiled and said, "The Grand Marshal once said, 'Everything in the world, only delicious food cannot be let down.' It is a blessing to be able to eat."
Xi Junmai nodded immediately. Whether he agreed with this view or not, since it came from Fang Jun's mouth, he would unconditionally support it.
The tea was brewed, and everyone divided a cup and sat on the deck with the tea cup and chatted.
At that time, the sky was full of stars and the sea was rippling. The tide pushed the warships away, and there were piles of bonfires on the shore in the distance.
Xue Yuanchao looked at the dock in the distance and said with some concern: "The move of Duke Yun has broken the rules set by the navy. I wonder how to end it afterwards?"
Di Renjie disagreed: "What can the couple do now? You can't return the territory you have obtained to the indigenous people! I don't know what happened to Duke Yun, but this island will inevitably be included in the territory of the Tang Dynasty from now on."
Xi Jun bought a sip of tea and nodded, "This is also the Duke of Yun. As long as the established fact is created, the court can only pinch its nose and recognize it. As for the navy, it has no authority to deal with Duke of Yun, so it can only be reported according to the facts."
After all, this is also the merit of "expanding territory". Although the great scholars in the court are full of benevolence, righteousness and morality, and call for "stop wars" every day, they are not fools after all, and they will definitely not discard the territory they have obtained.
The navy had no right to deal with Zhang Liang, and Zhang Liang did not rely on the navy. From now on, Zhang Liang would build this island into a place of enjoyment overseas.
However, as long as he did not consume public funds, even if he moved all his property to the island, the navy would not care...
A small boat sailed from the dock and approached the side of the boat. Cheng Gongying jumped onto the side of the boat and invited with a smile: "My boss has prepared some simple meals and a few jars of fine wine. If General Xi and the students do not mind, why not take a few drinks?"
Xi Jun bought a polite gift and returned the gift: "We have used supper, so we won't disturb Duke Yun."
Immediately, he asked again: "Is the war still going well? How about the casualties of soldiers? Do you need medicine?"
Cheng Gongying thanked and said, "A mere natives, like pig dogs, only a few soldiers were sprained, and the rest were unscathed. Tomorrow, there may be a wave of counterattacks from natives, but the general was prepared and he will surely be foolproof."
Di Renjie asked curiously: "Duke of Yun wants to take this island for himself?"
Cheng Gongying said seriously: "The Grand General is the Duke of the Tang Dynasty, the Imperial Army. All the things he took were captured. How could he hide it privately? This island is naturally the territory of the Tang Dynasty and should be incorporated into the territory of the Empire! In addition, the Duke of the Kingdom has ordered people to find a large stone, and printed the handwriting overnight, tied it on the stone, and stood it on the island, and remembered it forever!"
"In this way, the Duke of Yun has named this island?"
Whoever occupys the territory and who will name it is in line with the unspoken rules of the Tang army.
"That's right."
"What name is it?"
"Gaoyang Princess Island!"
“…”
...
As autumn approaches, the south of the Yangtze River is raining, but Huating Town Maritime Service is crowded. From the wharf to the town office, people are constantly coming and going, and countless cargo breeds are either unloaded from the wharf into the warehouse or transported from the wharf to the wharf to load on ships. The drizzle of drizzle cannot destroy people's pursuit of wealth.
Su Dingfang was wearing a straw raincoat and carrying his hands behind his back. He was surrounded by several personal soldiers, and hedgehogs were walking around the dock, looking east and west. Behind him, there were sailing masts on the Wusong River, warships entered and exited the military port, and merchant ships gathered on the river. In front of him, people gathered at the dock, including Goguryeo and Fuyu people in the northeast, Japanese people in the east, natives in the south, and great cannibals in the west. The goods included both Chinese and foreign, including north and south, and all kinds of strange things...
A mere town has become a place where wealth gathers around the world.
When goods enter or transfer out, they can charge a generous amount of taxes and continuously supply the treasury, supporting the infrastructure construction and military expenditures of the empire. Today, the Tang Dynasty's national strength is thousands of miles a day, and its prosperity is far better than any prosperous era recorded in history from ancient times to the present.
The barbarians bow their heads and the world is in vain. This is a real prosperous era.
How lucky is it to be born in such an era and be able to contribute to the great process of China?
A merchant ship sailed into the dock, and the sails filled with the wind of the river slowly descended and slowly stopped. A large group of young people stepped on the springboard to board the dock, one or two shouted.
"Mom! I'm finally back. I'm stepping on my Tang Dynasty land. This taste is so wonderful!"
"Who said it's not? I have dreamed of traveling around the world since I was a child, but this trip is tens of thousands of miles away, but I just miss home, my parents at home, old friends and relatives, and even more beautiful wife and concubines... I'm not promising, I'm ashamed."
"Mrs. Sister-in-law must miss her brother. When she returns home, she can't say she can give her a surprise."
"What surprise? Could it be that the sweetheart said to my brother, "I am happy, please pity me?"
"If this is the case, 'shock' is inevitable, but 'happiness' may not be!"
"Haha!"
...
Su Dingfang smiled and knew that these were all students traveling to the academy. He felt relieved to see these imperial prides floating on the sea for thousands of miles, and still able to talk and laugh, and be full of them. Walk more, increase your experience, appreciate the customs and culture, and see the sufferings of the world, which will be of great benefit to becoming an official in the future.
Just as I was about to turn around and leave, I suddenly heard someone calling behind me: "Grandmaster!"
Looking back in surprise, I saw a chubby young man walking quickly, bowing to the ground, and then raised a bright smile: "I returned from a trip and happened to have a letter handed to the Grand Governor. I was about to go to the military camp to ask for a meeting, but I met by chance, which saved some effort."
Su Dingfang first deliberately looked stern and said unhappily: "Why, when you go to see me, an old man, do you actually find it troublesome?"
Then he couldn't help but smile, looked up and down at Di Renjie's "round" figure, and sighed: "Others went out to sea and were all black and thin when they came back. Instead, you kid looked a lot bigger. Are you really broad-minded and fat?"
He likes this kid very much. He is extremely smart but easy-going. Not only does he never show off his intelligence, but he knows how to hide his weaknesses at a young age. He is best at dealing with interpersonal relationships, and can maintain a simple heart when he is successful in his youth. This is rare.
In time, you will become a great man.
Di Renjie smiled and said, "I feel more and more that the empire is strong and the country is prosperous and the people are at peace. I am extremely happy in my heart and naturally feel very good. I feel good in my mood and I am in a good mood. I can't help but have a good appetite. I have a lot of delicious foods from all over the country. It's not the boy's fault if I accidentally grow a few pounds of meat."
The newest ⊥Xiao⊥Speak⊥Send⊥Six⊥9⊥Book⊥⊥⊥⊥Back⊥⊥⊥⊥!
Su Dingfang laughed loudly and patted him on the shoulder hard.
This child sounds comfortable...
"By the way, what letters?"
"Oh, it was General Xi who asked the boy to submit it to the Grand Governor."
Di Renjie took out the letter and presented it with both hands.
Su Dingfang took it, took a look at the seal first, then tore open the envelope and took out the letter paper. He looked at it in ten lines at a glance, pondering for a moment.
After a moment, he waved to Di Renjie: "Follow me to the military camp and wait for me to write a letter. You can take me back to Chang'an and hand it over to Duke Yue."
"Here."
Di Renjie respectfully accepted the order and followed Su Dingfang to the military camp.
Behind him, the students couldn't help but be envious and whispered.
"Is this Di Renjie so close to Governor Su?"
Only Di Renjie was invited by Su Dingfang to the military camp, which shows his close relationship.
As a general in charge of the Royal Navy of the Tang Dynasty, Su Dingfang's reputation is no less than that of a group of Zhenguan ministers. He is in power and has great power, not to mention that almost all maritime trade ships now need to be protected by the navy. If they can get along well with Su Dingfang, their maritime trade business will be greatly benefited.
But Su Dingfang is a straight person and almost inhumane, but it is extremely difficult to deal with him...
"Who makes people favored by the Taiwei? After all, the Navy is still the Taiwei world. Governor Su will naturally take a high look at the people favored by the Taiwei."
...
In the military camp, Su Dingfang quickly wrote a letter, stamped with hot paint and stamped it with seal. After the hot paint cooled down and solidified, he handed it over to Di Renjie.
Di Renjie took it with both hands and put it in his arms.
Su Dingfang asked someone to make tea and asked with a smile: "Have you determined which yamen to go to for this imperial examination and high school?"
"The student has been included in Dali Temple and is the chief clerk."
"The chief clerk of Dali Temple?" Su Dingfang nodded: "Are you from the seventh grade? It's very good."
Di Renjie said humbly: "Fortunately, I am favored by Dai Siqing, and the boy is so nervous."
"Why do you have to belittle yourself? The so-called 'be cautious and do things boldly' is just that. However, when you are appointed as an official for the first time, you must not be eager for quick success or instant benefits. You can only accumulate. Work hard at Dali Temple for a few years. If you become an official in the future, you might as well try it when you come to the navy."
Su Dingfang drank tea and taught earnestly.
Di Renjie was extremely surprised and quickly stood up and bowed to the ground, thanking him: "Thank you for your attention. If you have the chance in the future, Ding Dang will let the commander in front of the governor!"
Who doesn’t know that the Navy is the highest-ranking army in the Tang Dynasty today?
Being able to work in the Navy will easily be promoted to the next level whether it is transferred to the center or the place of employment in the future. What's more, the navy shoulders the heavy responsibility of maritime trade, which is a existence that all aristocratic families and royal relatives must flatter, and at least they can accumulate a large number of connections...
