Chapter [-]

I laughed while Lan Ling beat his chest and stamped his feet.Do you plant sugar cane?Planting, no one stops you, and you still want to invest tens of thousands of coins, invest, no one cares about rich people.

The flowers in the mirror, the moon in the water, people who have never been out of Chang'an, Lanling is like this, very good, now I have learned a lot.The magnificent Chinese civilization has been passed down for thousands of years. What contends among a hundred schools of thought, what burns books and confuses Confucians, what expeditions to the Huns, what traitors usurp the world, all the flowers that should be produced, and those that can be written in history books are written, even if they are not recorded in history books There are stories about going to Longyou, Guanzhong, Central Plains, and even Jiangnan, but everyone has forgotten Lingnan.

Needless to say, Qin Shihuang built the Xiaohe Ancient Road and garrisoned troops in Lingnan, and Lingnan began to formally communicate with the outside world. In the words of Baiyue people, this is the beginning of endless suffering.The integration of ethnic groups has never required a matchmaker, no dowry, and no floats. Iron horses kill uninvited guests and show off their strong genes. Along with a series of genocidal systems, the strong one stays and the weak one disappears. In the long river of history, this is the theme of integration, and it will never change.

But it doesn’t succeed every time. The strong also declines. I don’t know whether to be happy for the Baiyue people or feel sad for Qin Shihuang. The grand immigrant conquest plan is not going well. This goal continues.The soldiers who had traveled long distances suddenly found that their ideals were shattered with the fall of the dynasty, and the once civilized society suddenly became a hell on earth, with wars everywhere and dense smoke.So many people chose to stay, stay in the place they were trying to conquer, start a family and start a business, and use their sharp blade and wisdom to create a paradise.

The dust has settled, but the increasingly powerful Hu people in the west have attracted the attention of the new dynasty. The people on horseback pose a far greater threat to the country than the weak Baiyue people.Although the wise monarch hopes to regain control of Lingnan in his own hands, and continues to take action, it is difficult to completely change Lingnan's perception of the country due to conditions, even if the ocean trade makes this dynasty known as the Golden Dynasty. However, the aborigines at the starting point of the Maritime Silk Road generally have doubts about their belonging, and are wary of everything from the north. What do those people want to do?

Conquest always comes with integration.After trying over and over again and summarizing again and again, the emperors of all dynasties are unwilling to give up, but the emperors of all dynasties are always unable to do what they want. Their efforts have changed Lingnan more or less. Judging from the scene in front of them, the changes Not big, very incomplete.

Here the boundary between the Tang people and the aborigines is very clear.It can be seen from the clothes, the walking posture, the tone of the voice, and the eating habits. It can be said that they are two completely different people.

There is the sea.There are mountains and forests, that is to say, people who come here first praise this unique scenery.But it is not easy to live a good life in such a beautiful place.First of all, in terms of communication, the aborigines are always inexplicably wary of outsiders. Even if you tell them loudly that the Tang Empire has been established and you have been liberated, they will ask back: Does it have anything to do with us?

A person in charge of Agronomy told me that they encountered difficulties in recruiting manpower in the early stage of the establishment of the experimental field. Although there was support from the government, the local people were unwilling to help them.However, if outsiders are planning to farm, they undoubtedly want to live for a long time. The behavior of turning against customers makes the locals very unhappy.

I have also persuaded the person in charge of the agronomy, after all, we did not come here with malicious intentions, and they will not be disgusted if they appreciate the benefits of the three-season rice promotion in the future.After all, there are schools here gradually, and there are also many big families from Jiang and Huai who have come to take root and do business. The rapid development of business relations has promoted exchanges and understanding between ethnic groups. After they get used to the new way of life, they will naturally have The sense of cognition will also cheer loudly for every victory on the front line of the empire.

What Lan Ling said also made sense.Mainly population.Early Tang.The sharply reduced population after the war slowly recovered, and Lingnan was sparsely populated.The Han nationality has not yet had the conditions to form a population advantage here. Even if there is a crisis in distribution, the first choice for immigrants is the north, and no one cares about the relatively backward and harsh environment of Lingnan.

There is no pillar industry, no industrial environment that attracts the attention of the court, and the ocean trade in this era has not been prosperous enough to make this place a blockbuster, and it is impossible to support too many people.The backward farming foundation also weakened the influence of Lingnan, coupled with the inconvenient transportation, the imperial court was unwilling to spend a large amount of money and food to build a seemingly tasteless area when it was spending money everywhere, which was uneconomical for the country.

"Do they all need to be changed?" Sarcasm, it's a sarcasm for me and Lanling.Shipbuilding, sugar, modern ports, when everything becomes a reality, the powerful Tang Empire does not know whether it will be recognized.

"But the sea boat workshop has indeed been organized in an orderly manner. You have to admit this." Lan Ling insisted, at least the breeding base of agronomy and the reconstruction of Tuen Mun Mountain were really good, and there were no bright spots to speak of. Even Guangzhou gave me the feeling that an embassy of the Tang Empire was built in a different country.

"What needs to be changed is that we don't have the ability yet." I finally understand the cruelty of distribution. When it comes to exile in Lingnan, college students in the 21st century would like to have this opportunity to be exiled, but for the so-called civilized people these days disaster.It's easy to explain, the government orders are blocked, the language is blocked, the moral concepts are blocked, the value concept is blocked, the conditions are bad, and the living environment is useless; since ancient times, most of the officials and prisoners who have been sent out and exiled have died on the road. dead.

"When do you think this place will be the same as Chang'an?" Lanling's only satisfaction with Lingnan is all kinds of novel fruits, which are in season, and they eat a big plate every day, and suddenly feel pregnant Same, but after running a few times in the toilet, it is not obvious that it is a pregnant woman. If you count the time, there should be some signs, very amazing person.

"I never thought that this place could be the same as Chang'an. Change by force? Burn the homes of the aborigines? Take away their fruits? Smash their gods? Shoot all those who accept it?"

Europeans are good at this. On the one hand, they recognize the rights of the aborigines, and on the other hand, they use force to change their values. They not only do the same thing on their own continent, but also go to other continents to do it more vigorously, so I It took a lot of effort to get a damn English level [-] certificate to ensure that I can find a job that doesn't use English at all.

"It's a good way." Lan Ling patted my shoulder vigorously, stuffed a finger-sized banana into my mouth, and sighed with a smile, "It's good. As you said, a person should always express himself when he is alive." Even if it eats more land than others, it is an advantage. It can be used as a labor force for so many people, and the only advantage cannot be given up."

"You really want to do this?" Bananas are good and taste good.If plundering bananas can also become a profitable industry, I can't guarantee that those old warlords in the court will still go to Lingnan to ignore them.

"Go to hell!" Lan Ling kicked Shun the leg, "If you say this, you won't be afraid of collapsing the ancestral grave?" As he said, he slapped his coat and squinted at me, "I planned to live here for a long time, but the local people I didn’t give me a garden to practice the palace, and secondly, the cooks who brought me the land were at the end of their skills. They didn’t know how to cook the food I like. So you hurry up and finish the three-season rice, and we will go to Huainan to give birth to the child. Oh. With so many fruits, how can I bring them to Chang'an? You have someone who is proficient in agronomy, ask."

Lan Ling's words were surrender. When she found that she could do nothing, she used all kinds of excuses to find a step to leave. At first, it was mosquito bites, and the water quality was not good when she came down.Let's go down and say that people's climate always makes her feel unfit for her body, and today she changed her problem of picking food.

The three-crop rice was planted in parallel in Lingnan and Jiangnan, and there were no major obstacles. I didn't care if there were expert supervisors from the agronomy department.My inspection work was successfully completed. The appearance of Lanling shocked the soldiers of the sea boat workshop. The two of them can leave at any time. After all, these are just excuses for having a baby.

"I'm cooking, let the bad cooks you bring learn a little bit, if you can't do it, say you can't do it, it's wrong to complain." Laughing, pinch Lan Ling's nose, it's harmful to the body to be so depressed all the time.These are not things that can be changed in a day or two. It takes time to change from point to point. Now the imperial court has invested capital in the Guangzhou area, and the construction has begun to take shape. It’s just that Lanling and I came too early. I believe When I come back ten years later, I will definitely not be so downcast again.

Now that you are here, you must live comfortably and freely.Rely on the mountains to eat the mountains, and rely on the sea to eat the sea.The conditions for eating fresh seafood in the so-called sea view garden are all available.This was something that was unimaginable back then.Now, even if I don’t grow sugarcane, it’s not a problem for me to build a decent big house near Tuen Mun.

"Just stay here. I will take care of food and clothing, can you still be hungry with me?" Patting his chest, pointing to the surrounding environment of the simple palace, "It's not bad here. Didn't you get frightened by the sea when you came here? It would be better to live closer, the view of the sea from the top of the mountain is not something that people in Chang'an can appreciate."

"En!" Lan Ling got up and set up a window for ventilation, "Indeed, I go to see it every day, and I can't get enough." He said, holding a box full of shells and showing it to me, "Lingnan things are also sold in Chang'an. But nothing is as good as the one in my box. It’s a pity that you can’t live a good life after guarding such a beautiful place.”

Lanling suddenly had an idea to take advantage of local advantages to vigorously develop shipbuilding workshops and sailing schools. Those with lofty ideals who are determined to contribute to Datang's sailing cause can enjoy the supplementary education program sponsored by the Nautical Shareholders' Association headed by the Neifu.Firstly, it can be regarded as a regional subsidy for coming to Lingnan, and secondly, once the navigation industry becomes a popular industry, it will not only stimulate the local infrastructure construction, but also attract more people to participate in this business with good treatment.With so many ports, ships, and shipyards, coupled with increasingly frequent maritime trade, Lingnan's increasing regional influence will attract more attention from the imperial court, leading to a virtuous circle.

"Well, courageous!" Thumbs up first. Lanling's business for so many years is not for nothing. He has a thorough understanding of basic regional economic concepts and knows where to start to make changes.It can be said that the shareholders in the maritime industry headed by the Neifu do not think so. Whether they are willing to invest such a large amount of profits in their hands is still uncertain.At least I am also one of the shareholders. I am willing to build a shipyard and build a school to ensure my subsequent profits, but I am not great enough to establish an aid fund to provide financial assistance for all sailing enthusiasts. No one is willing to throw their wealth on this In a black hole.He frowned and asked, "Have you considered everyone's thoughts?"

"I know you don't want to." Lanling ignored my question, and smiled: "I will find a way to make you willing. There are too few people involved in maritime business, and it's not close for you silverfish to share the pie. Favor, isn't it?"

"What do you mean? Who are the silverfish you're talking about? Make it clear!" Jia Yao also made it.After drinking and eating, and eating the fruit, you start to attack people by name and name. Isn't this too inhumane?

"What a mess." Lan Ling hiccupped and rubbed his belly comfortably, "Let me ask you, what did you tell me before the voyage plan?"

"What did I say?" I don't remember, but I probably said some bullshit about a grand blueprint when I was excited.But what you say when you are excited is not counted.I didn't say that I want to set up a sailing foundation. The possibility of taking out the money I got is zero!

"I also forgot what you said." Lan Ling smiled happily, I haven't seen her smile so happily for a long time, it seems that she is holding her purse tightly, usually such a smile is not a good thing for me. "Why not let all capable families participate? I think it is necessary to draft a relevant law, set up an agency to manage the nautical industry, conduct a unified assessment of the Xuye Order, and pay taxes for entering the port at Tuen Mun Port. This will not only benefit the imperial court. It has benefited a lot, and the local government no longer has to worry about the allocation of the household department." He glanced at me provocatively, "The only pity is that we silverfish can't eat alone, right?"

"Isn't there a tax system at the gate? Ships have to pay for it. Don't you need to do it again?" Luckily, Lan Ling can't make a breakthrough on this. Once a unified tax system is formed, we nobles will not be able to survive. It's too shameful to compete with a group of professional businessmen who are ungrateful for profit.The key is no advantage.

"You understood what I said, but you pretended to be confused." Lan Ling gave a contemptuous look, took a pen and paper and recorded his ideas.First of all, the ships moored in the port will implement a unified taxation system, which will not be favored by the nobles or the inner government before; the license will be issued by the imperial court, and powerful families or business groups can apply for a sailing license. After the assessment, the navigation organizations that have obtained the Xuye Order are obliged to donate to the navigation industry in proportion to their profits.According to the amount of donations, you will get the number of students in the Nautical Academy and enjoy certain preferential policies.It's just a framework, Lan Ling blew the ink and handed it to me, "That's the idea. Help me plan it carefully, you have the ability to add oil and vinegar."

"No!" It was the first time that Lan Ling considered the gains and losses from the position of a nobleman. What Lan Ling did was against the shareholders of Navigation. Once a formal decree is implemented, it will be us who are the first to be impacted. Some shareholders.We must know that Yuanhang Maritime Merchants is now a monopoly situation, and under the trend of huge profits, once this piece of paper takes effect... "I protest!"

"Protesting is invalid!" Lanling imitated my tone and waved his hands, "I'm not afraid that you will unite with those shareholders to oppose me. There are too many people who want to squeeze in. Guangchang'an dignitaries want to get their hands on them... Hehe. You These few can’t make a fortune. Believe it or not, there is no support from the inner government. There are not only one or two places to go to sea, but now that I put down my words, don’t they all respond to everyone?”

Shameless, shameless!It is natural for Lanling to give up some of the interests of the inner government for the sake of the Li family's foundation, but she cannot treat the interests of our shareholders as a sacrifice. Although she claims to be pregnant with my child, but...but dad is wronged!

Runaway, Lan Ling's words are true, our few shareholders can't afford a big wave, maybe even a wave, and I want to give the child a fucking beating when I see her smiling so proudly!It’s a good trip, poor and hard, haven’t you survived for thousands of years, why are you so anxious to change, do you really want to turn a fishing port into a Shenzhen CIMC?There is still a groping stage for socialism to open the stock market. Is it so simple for feudalism to issue navigation orders?At least let us shareholders grope for another four to 50 years, and it won’t be too late to let everyone make money if they don’t like it!

"I've decided to divorce you! You're such a lawless woman!" She shivered with the reform framework of the navigation industry that Lan Ling forced in her hand, and quickly ate the leftovers on the plate. Nothing, nothing more, the fruit is also gone!

"I don't want the reputation of being a supportive father before the child is born, so be careful to disturb my sleep at night because of stomach upset." Lan Ling stretched his toes up and down, doing health exercises for pregnant women, and hummed the Cantonese song I only taught in a half-baked tune. Although the Vietnamese of this era and the Cantonese of later generations are two different things.

"You will create retribution!"

"Wait." Lan Ling nodded, accepted my curse happily, and said with a smile, "Okay, no one will come to save you if you shout again, so hurry up and make the draft draft in the wrong direction." Our side?"

"We? You are already a traitor, don't be confused with a revolutionary righteous like me, and despise you on behalf of all the shareholders!" He raised the intention handed over by Lanling and swayed, "Wait, I will make this thing completely unrecognizable! "
