Datang Nongwang

Chapter 812 Caught a Feng Family
It is impossible for these three people to leave Zhenzhou.

At least right now it is impossible to leave Zhenzhou, even if they leave Zhenzhou, they will only be sent to Xisha Island for people to watch.

These three people broke such shocking news, Li Chongyuan didn't dare to let them go easily.

If the news leaked out and the Feng family listened to it, let alone whether they could stabilize the Feng family, they might have to hand over their own lives to Lingnan.

The Feng family is going to run away. For such a big event, Li Chongyuan must know the cause and effect, and especially whether the Feng family is really going to run away.

Of course, without evidence, Li Chongyuan would only ask Xing Ba and the others to investigate.

As for the copper mine in Shaozhou, Li Chongyuan must also find out the exact location.

If the Feng family really has been mining copper mines, and the Feng family wants to cooperate with him to build a big ship, then Li Chongyuan can be [-]% sure that the Feng family will run away.

As for where the Feng family is going, Li Chongyuan doesn't know.

But if the Feng family wants to get their own large paddle steamer so much, then the direction the Feng family is going must be somewhere in the sea.

further south?
Or west?

Or more to the east?

Li Chongyuan didn't know.

But judging from the fact that the Feng family has been occupying Lingnan, the direction the Feng family is going to run, I am afraid that only further south is their destination.

And further south.

Li Chongyuan has already found out, and even drew a map and handed it to Li Shimin.

Even if the Feng family really wanted to run away, and Datang wanted to capture the Feng family back, that would be within easy reach. Even if the Feng family could really hide, if the Feng family did something earth-shattering and weeping ghosts and gods, I'm afraid they would go to the ends of the earth , that also doesn't help.

Li Chongyuan looked at the three people, thought for a moment, and said: "Recently, you are temporarily staying here, don't leave, and don't think about leaving. You should know how important the news you hear is to the court. Once you escape, your family and your relatives will be severely punished. I say that, do you understand?"

"The little ones understand, understand. It's just that the young ones don't know when they will be able to return home. When the young ones leave Yangzhou, the wives and children at home must be very worried. Please ask Li Junwang for the sake of the young ones to answer truthfully. Let me comfort the little ones' families." Of course the three knew the importance of the matter, but they still cared about their families, so they hurriedly pleaded with Li Chongyuan.

Li Chongyuan nodded, "You don't need to worry about this matter. When you left Yangzhou, your family has already received the news of your departure from Yangzhou."

"Thank you, Junwang Li, thank you, Junwang Li." The three of them expressed their gratitude.

After a while, Li Chongyuan ordered the three of them to be taken down to keep them safe.

After the three were taken down, Li Chongyuan couldn't sit still anymore.

The matter was too big, so big that Li Chongyuan couldn't control the direction of this matter.

'It is impossible for me to win this matter alone. It seems that I can only write a letter back to Chang'an and let Li Shimin handle it. '

'However, you can't be in such a hurry to write a letter. It's not too late to write after you have verified all the information.I don't know what the state of the Feng family is at this time. Why did they run away? '

'A copper mine, that's not the case.Although the matter of privately mining copper mines is a big deal, the Feng family only needs to pay tribute to the court, and I am afraid that this matter can be suppressed.But the Feng family wants to build a big ship and run away. Is there something bigger behind this? '

"Xingba went to Guangzhou, so if Ma Erru is just the head of a business gang, I'm afraid he won't know too much. '

Li Chongyuan thought about it, and really didn't know which aspect to investigate.

but.

After frowning, Li Chongyuan suddenly seemed to have realized something, and he slapped his head and said, "Tang Li, send someone to Gaozhou to find Liu Xiang, and ask him to investigate all the matters of the Feng family that can be convicted of treason. Remember to tell him to be careful, don't follow the Feng family's way."

"Yes, Mr. Xiao Lang." After Tang Li got the words, he sent a disciple to leave Zhenzhou.

People sent out.

Li Chongyuan looked forward to good news for them.

For several days in a row, although Li Chongyuan asked Tang Li for news every day.

For the rest of the time, they are basically inspecting the planting base.

Those who should open up wasteland will continue to open up wasteland.

Although there are not many people, but there are people who have been hired at a great price, and this barren land can be opened up quickly.

Land reclamation is tiring and bitter.

But with the supply of food and high wages to clear the way, this desert has new changes every day.

someday.

When Li Chongyuan inspected the wasteland, he looked at the weeds and thorns all over the mountains and saw the people working hard to open up the wasteland. He calculated in his heart: "If we continue to open up the wasteland like this, I don't know that the year of the monkey will be able to reclaim my [-] mu of wasteland. If there is The large agricultural machinery is here, and it may take only a month to complete it."

"Xiao Langjun, what kind of large agricultural machinery are you talking about?" Tang Li, who had been guarding Li Chongyuan, was very curious when he suddenly heard what Li Chongyuan said.

In Tang Li's perception, it is impossible to open up [-] mu of wasteland within a month.

Even with 1 people, it is impossible to reclaim the [-] mu of wasteland within a month.

curious.

I am curious about the large-scale agricultural machinery that Li Chongyuan said can open up [-] acres of wasteland within a month.

Li Chongyuan sighed: "Large-scale agricultural machinery is a kind of machinery that cannot be done by manpower. If there is such a thing, let alone a hundred thousand mu, it will be a million mu, tens of millions of mu, I'm afraid it will be no problem. But it is a pity that this thing is a divine thing, and it is beyond my reach."

"Mr. Xiaolang said that it is a divine object. I am afraid that there will be no such thing in this world. Except for immortal objects, only immortals can open one hundred thousand, one million, or tens of millions of acres of sacred objects." Tang Li said.

It is normal for Tang Li's cognition to be placed at the moment.

What fairy, fairy.

If you put it in modern times, don't talk about large agricultural machinery, even if it is flying in the sky, it is a normal thing.

Li Chongyuan didn't say much, looking at the planting base full of eyes, he was worried.

Although it is simple to cultivate rubber trees, it cannot be planted directly in the wild grass and thorns.

If you really want to do this, let alone the water and nutrients of the rubber tree will be absorbed by the weeds and thorns. Even if the rubber tree can grow, it may not grow up.

Rubber tree is the tree species that Li Chongyuan must plant.

Only when the rubber tree grows up and the rubber is harvested, can Li Chongyuan do more things, design and produce more things so that farmers and common people can really use agricultural machinery.

Although the common people already had radios, the damage rate of those gadgets was too high, and after the imperial court popularized them, most of the production of radios was controlled by those aristocratic families, noble families, clans, and wealthy merchants.

Although ordinary people who know carpentry skills can also produce, even local governments will sell some low-cost radios.

But even so, the farmers and common people in the world really can't spend more money to buy radio receivers.

The damage rate of radio receivers is high, and Li Chongyuan hopes to produce real, so-called agricultural machinery.

And if you want to make agricultural machinery, this rubber is an essential thing.

Although Li Chongyuan doesn't know how to build an engine, Li Chongyuan may still be able to build a steam engine.Even if you can't make it right now, you can try it out.

Li Chongyuan wants money and people, so is he afraid that he won't be able to make a qualified steam engine?
Even if the steam engine is not suitable for agriculture, as long as there is rubber, Li Chongyuan can also create machinery that is convenient for farmers and common people to use in agriculture.

But at the moment, the progress of land reclamation is too slow, and there are too few people. Even if Li Chongyuan wants to gather all the people in Qiongdao who have nothing to do with farming and have nothing to do with farming, he may not be able to get tens of thousands of people.

Zhenzhou only got hundreds of people.

And on Qiongdao, there are only four states.

One Zhenzhou, twenty thousand Anzhou, three Danzhou, and four Yazhou.

Zhenzhou has only about 2 people, Danzhou has even fewer people, and Wan'an Prefecture has the same population. Only Yazhou has the largest population, but its population is only [-] and a half.

Adding up the four prefectures, the total population is less than [-], excluding the people in the Yamen Zhechong Mansion.

With a population of 8, three-fifths are old, weak, and young, and the rest are only [-] laborers.

Even if there are more than [-] laborers, people's fields still need to be looked after, and there will never be more than half of them who can be free.

and.

This half of the people wanted him to get all of Li Chongyuan to Zhenzhou to open up wasteland for him for a few months, and the governments of these states would not agree.

Moreover.

Even if the [-] mu of wasteland is reclaimed, whether it is planted or managed in the future, at least a thousand people will be needed to take care of it.

but.

After Li Chongyuan was overwhelmed, he thought that the land reclamation could be done first, even if it cost a little more, and invited the peasants and people who were free from the entire Qiongdao to come to open up the land for him first, in addition to increasing the income of those peasants and common people. In addition, you can also solve your urgent needs.

"Okay, let's do it like this." Li Chongyuan finally made up his mind.

Tang Li at the side suddenly heard that Li Chongyuan said that he would do it this way, he was a little confused, "Young Lord, why do you do it like this?"

"Open up wasteland. I'm going to go to the government offices of various states and counties, and ask the local government to send people to open up wasteland for me. There is no large-scale agricultural machinery, and only human power can be used to open up wasteland. I don't believe it. I can't open up this [-] mu of wasteland. Big deal, I'll give every commoner who comes to open up wasteland a wage of fifty cents a day." Li Chongyuan was ruthless.

Fifty cents a day, this is a price that cannot be higher.

Tang Li didn't say much anymore, he just took a look at the whole planting base which was still in a barren state, and knew that Li Chongyuan was most concerned about this planting base.

If you have an idea, you must act.

The next day, Li Chongyuan went directly to Ningyuan County, found Li Qing, borrowed a carriage and horses, and started to drive to Wanwan County.

Anzhou to go.

Turning around Qiongdao, thousands of miles away, Li Chongyuan really didn't care whether it was hard or not.

This state goes to that state, and this county goes to that county.

When Li Chongyuan rushed to Yazhou, Xingba and the others also returned to Zhenzhou, and even Liu Xiang sent news to them.

After Li Chongyuan got the news, he hurried on and went to Danzhou to meet Danzhou. After meeting Danzhou, he went straight to Zhenzhou's own base.

Although he took a lot of time on the road, Li Chongyuan was not too anxious about the Feng family's affairs.

As soon as he returned to his planting base, Xingba rushed over, "Xiao Langjun, Ma Er has been caught, and we also caught a very special person."

"Where is the person?" Li Chongyuan asked after getting off the carriage.

Xingba pointed to a woodshed on the side of the residence and said: "It's locked in the firewood room. Ma Er is really not a thing. According to our inquiries, Ma Er can cover the sky with one hand in the Lingnan area. Anyone passing through Guangzhou All the cargo ships have to pay to him. Moreover, there are thousands of gang members under the second hand of Ma, and there is a huge fleet with as many as [-] ships. When we arrived in Guangzhou, we followed the After more than twenty days, Ma finally found an opportunity and caught him. At the same time, he also caught a very special person."

"Let's go and meet Ma Er and that very special person for a while." Li Chongyuan could guess what happened to Ma Er after hearing Xing Ba's words.

As the head of a merchant gang, it's not unusual to collect fares from passing cargo ships.

As far as Li Chongyuan knew, there were such merchant groups in every section of the Grand Canal.

To say they are a business gang is an understatement.

These people can only be said to be water tyrants everywhere.

In addition to water tyrants, there are also road tyrants and sea tyrants.

After a while, Li Chongyuan saw the man named Ma Er and the special person Xing Ba had mentioned.

When Li Chongyuan saw that special person, Li Chongyuan's first impression was that this special person, regardless of his identity or status, was definitely not an ordinary person.

Moreover, when Li Chongyuan looked at that special person, what he thought of was Feng Zhizai from the Feng family.

Why?

Because this person looks a little like Feng Zhizai, at least [-]% of the similarity.

"You guys are so brave, you dare to arrest me, do you know what will happen after you arrest me!" When the man finally saw someone come forward, he immediately yelled.

Xingba moved a chair, Li Chongyuan sat down and looked at the man carefully, and said with a sneer: "I didn't expect that a business gang is still related to the Feng family. This is really not a good thing."

"Hmph! Who are you!" The man was a little nervous when Li Chongyuan revealed his identity, but he shouted without showing timidity.

Li Chongyuan rubbed his forehead, looked at Xing Ba behind him and asked: "Did this person go with Ma Er at that time?"

"Yes. At that time, we didn't expect that this person would be on Ma Er's carriage, so when we arrested Ma Er, we saw that this person was there, just in case, we immediately arrested him." Xing eight times road.

Hearing Li Chongyuan and Xing Ba's words, the man knew that the person Li Chongyuan wanted to arrest was Ma Er, and secretly thought it was bad luck.

However, this person was arrogant and very angry, "You'd better let me go immediately, maybe I will spare your life when the time comes. Otherwise, none of you and your family members will be able to get away by then, All will be killed."

"Did anyone find out when they were arrested?" Li Chongyuan still ignored him, and continued to ask Xing Ba.

Xingba shook his head firmly, "No, I confirm that no one found out when we arrested these two people."

"That's good." Li Chongyuan was very satisfied.

Li Chongyuan is [-]% sure about Xingba and the others' handling of affairs.
