Chapter 322 Something is abnormal (please subscribe)

In the blink of an eye, the old year has passed and the new year has arrived.

The entire capital is immersed in the joy of the New Year.

After the imperial court resumed operations, news from all sources continued to come.

The first is that Prince Zhongshun united with the Xue family to increase investment in the seagoing fleet.

At the same time, a large amount of supplies also began to gather towards Jinmen Port.

Of course those who knew knew what was going on, but those who didn't didn't even hear the news.

However, some small changes in Ludi's officialdom did not attract the attention of the court bosses.

Soon after, an offshore transport ship belonging to the Zhongshun County King's family arrived in the nearby waters for preliminary cargo transportation.

Many local landless people, as well as some without identity documents, were summoned by the government to carry out paid port development and construction activities.

These conditions have not changed much in a short period of time, and have not attracted much attention from outsiders.

Even the local cowards in Lu area cannot figure out these situations.

A large amount of materials, money and grain were transported by sea-going ships, which did not affect the price of grain in various places in Daqian.

To put it bluntly, for real bosses, food and grass supplies are almost always available.

In fact, this scene is not hidden from outsiders, but generally no outsiders pay attention to it.

After all, Daqian is now considered to be a peaceful country and the people are safe. The environment within the territory is quite peaceful and there is no trouble.

Various resources are either completely monopolized by certain interest groups, or their territories and areas have been divided early, each with their own business areas.

There are no big waves. This situation has almost solidified, and it is difficult for big twists and turns to occur.

Everyone is cleaning the snow in front of their own door, so how can they care about the frost on other people's tiles?
Jia Huan has been busy since the fifth day of the Lunar New Year.

Otherwise, the interest alliance of the four major Jinling families is quite powerful.

Under Jia Huan's coordination, large quantities of money, food and materials were continuously transported to the Jeju Island territory through canals and other means, via sea-going fleets.

At this time, the route from Jinmen to Jeju Island has been thoroughly explored. A round trip only takes half a month. For the forces involved in the construction of the island territory, it is not that far.

The capable manpower dispatched by the Ning Mansion, the Shi Family, and the Lin Family also followed the fleet to the outer sea territories.

From now on, they will be the main management members of the territory development and construction.

Jia Huan didn't care. How could he really care about such a small place?

The main thing is to let the allies experience it for themselves and let them understand that they are not being deceived, but that it is indeed true. This is very important!
Only when they see something real will their support in the future be more firm and continuous.

Don't underestimate the power of the four major families in Jinling. The Lin family is not a vegetarian. The resources they can really mobilize are quite amazing and terrifying.

The reason why it doesn't look good is that most of the energy in the past has been spent on the internal affairs of the family, and there is no strong backbone, so it seems to be in serious decline.

Once there is a leader and a fairly reliable development goal is set, the energy that the four major Jinling families and the Lin family can use is quite astonishing.

Apart from anything else, at least in terms of human resources, there is no need for Jia Huan's painstaking efforts to cultivate silently.

They are all centuries-old families. Which family does not have a large number of capable people, but there is no room for improvement?
As long as you set up good rules and do strict supervision, you don't have to worry about them messing around overseas and can do things according to plans and plans!
The most important thing is that they are very loyal to their family, which is the biggest highlight!
After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the guys heading to the Jeju Island territory had already gone back and forth.

The principals of each family knew everything they should know. Jia Huan then called them together and told them about this year's new plan and the upcoming big moves.

Qin Keqing, Lin Daiyu, the Second Master Zheng, Shi Jia Shuanghou and Xue Pan who were all present at the meeting were all shocked and excited by his bold plan.

Lin Daiyu's eyes widened even more, her face full of disbelief.

She was in a very excited state at this time, mainly because it was her first time to attend such a high-level meeting.

You know, she is representing the Lin family at this time.

"Brother Huan, is your idea a little too bold?"

It was difficult for others to ask directly, but she had no such psychological burden.

"Are you brave? I don't think so!"

Jia Huan chuckled and said: "We have already found out the situation over there. As long as we are not extremely unlucky and encounter a storm, the problem will not be big!"

"But the distance is too far, isn't it?"

Lin Daiyu continued to ask: "That place is probably thousands of miles away from the capital!"

"No, I have to talk about the importance of the seaport city!"

Jia Huan smiled and said: "As for sea transportation, it is very fast!"

"So, how many people will be needed to send people there for the first time?"

At this time, Baolinghou couldn't help but ask: "Is it true that there are only a small number of savages on that big island you mentioned? After all, it is not far from the Japanese island!"

"That's natural!"

Jia Huan said without hesitation: "My people have actually been to the island!"

"If it weren't for my own lack of strength, I wouldn't think of cooperating with Prince Zhongshun!"

"With the combined strength of our four major families and the Lin family, isn't it enough?"

Marquis Baoling frowned and said, "The cost is too shocking, isn't it?"

"That's not the case!"

Jia Huan said calmly: "With the combined strength of the four major families and the Lin family, it is naturally enough to occupy that big island. Our combined energy is not small!"

"Then why..."

"The main thing is to guard against the forces here in Da Gan, who are holding me back!"

Jia Huan said helplessly: "That sea area is forbidden by the rich families on the southeast coast!"

"If it is discovered that our manpower appears, the consequences will be disastrous, and a battle will definitely be inevitable!"

"I'm not worried about a direct armed conflict. I'm worried that they will use the power of the court to punish us after they know our identities!"

"Think about it, if the wealthy families on the southeast coast are willing to use some of their overseas interests, they can even persuade us to stumbling upon us now!"

These words were more serious and made the faces of the group sitting there become serious.

If you think about it carefully, this is really possible!
Nowadays, I have been worried about the emptiness of the national treasury. Although the second master Zheng came forward to help recover almost ten million taels of owed silver, the court is a bottomless pit. Even in a normal year, the consumption is an astronomical figure!
Not to mention, although there have been no major natural disasters in Daqian in recent years, various minor disasters have never been eliminated, and the court's expenditure on this is not small.

In addition, with the use of force on frontiers nowadays, even if it is only a small-scale battle, the money and food consumed over time is not a small amount. The money owed to the national treasury that was asked for before has been spent.

Anyway, since taking over the throne today, the national treasury has never been full and has always been short of money.

At this time, if the wealthy families on the southeast coast were spending a lot of money, I really wouldn't mind if they acted as a sword in someone else's hand.

"With the participation of the loyal prince and the recruitment of a wave of clans, the situation will be different!"

Jia Huan sneered and said: "After all, the clan wants to take the lion's share. If there is a conflict of interest, naturally it has to be directly at the forefront. Otherwise, how can it be possible to get all the benefits?"

Everyone nodded silently, feeling that Jia Huan's approach was indeed appropriate.

"I heard that the situation in the open sea is not very stable?"

At this time, Lin Daiyu asked again: "What is the situation? Can you tell me?"

"What else could it be?"

Jia Huan said with a smile: "The powerful clans along the southeastern coast are very powerful, as well as the locals from many islands in the outer sea, and the red-haired ghosts who are coming with great force. All in all, it's quite chaotic!"

"Then if we join in rashly, there won't be any problems, right?"

Lin Daiyu asked worriedly: "What's going on with those red-haired ghosts?"

"no problem!"

Jia Huan smiled and said: "That sea area is actually very close to our place, so we can be considered the hosts!"

"As for the Hong Mao Fan, they existed in the pre-Ming Dynasty, and they were a powerful force that roamed the oceans!"

"It's just that their core interests are not with us. It's still very easy to only deal with their fringe forces!"

There are some situations that Jia Huan doesn't want to say right now.

For example, Tianzhu at this time has basically fallen into the hands of Westerners!
When everyone's combined strength actually meets each other in the outer sea, it will not be too late to let them know how tyrannical the bandits in the outer sea are.

Otherwise, even if what Jia Huan said was fantastic, they would not believe it.

They have been wearing the title of Heavenly Kingdom for too long, and it is not easy for them to admit the reality.

Besides, although the Daqian Dynasty's military equipment at this time was not very good, its overall strength was still the top power in the world. There is no doubt about this.

As for whether it can perform well when competing overseas, it is definitely better than my Qing Dynasty.

Once you convince the alliance leaders, things will be much easier to handle.

The sea-going fleet that had returned to Jinmen Port quickly set off for new sea areas after receiving the order.

At the same time, what was launched together was an even more astonishing royal fleet!
I have never witnessed the astonishing scene of thousands of sails racing with my own eyes. I thought everything was under control, and I didn't understand that the rules of conduct in the open sea were completely different.

He was very happy after getting the news!

For no other reason, the huge fleet of ships organized by Prince Zhongshun and his companions are now regarded as cannon fodder for the king's vanguard, and the louder the noise, the better.

When he finally picks the peaches, the benefits and benefits he can reap will be even greater.

Jia Huan didn't know what he was thinking right now. If he knew, he would definitely not be able to help but laugh out loud, and finally said disdainfully: "Ugly people often do mischief!"

It turned out that the four major families in Jinling, together with the Lin family, created quite a big stir.

It's not that the news circulating within Rong Mansion has completely exploded in the capital.

In fact, the news that was spreading inside Rong Mansion had always been confined to the interior of Rong Mansion. At most, it had spread to the Ning Mansion next door, and it had not been widely spread outside.

There is no way, who can say that Rongfu is not considered to be the top among the powerful circles in the capital?
Even the common people in the capital, who want to gossip about the powerful, have their eyes set on those top powerful families. The Rong Mansion is currently not qualified to receive special attention.

At present, Rongfu is only in the stage of gradual revival, and it is still far from returning to its peak.

Under such circumstances, it is difficult for a rumor spread within Rong Mansion to cause much waves outside.

The main thing is that there is not much interest entanglement with the people of the capital, and it will not affect the lives of the people of the capital. The content is not thrilling and weird enough, so it naturally cannot attract much attention.

Setting up a vassal state outside the sea sounds unreliable!

The people in the capital have always regarded themselves as people of the Celestial Dynasty, and they simply disdain the outer sea territories.

In their eyes, it was almost like a place of exile with harsh environment.

During the Han and Tang Dynasties, the so-called Protectorate Mansion that was far away sounded famous, but how many people in the Han and Tang Dynasties were willing to live there?
The truth is the same!

Even if Prince Zhongshun and Jia Huan's plan succeeds, and they successfully seal a vassal and establish a country in the outer sea, the people in the capital will not care too much and will just click their tongues in the end.

Likewise, the fact that the four major families in Jinling and the Lin family joined forces to mobilize a large amount of supplies was not exposed for a while, but only some traces were revealed.

If it goes on for a long time, it will definitely not be hidden.

After all, in the agricultural era, transporting so many materials, food, grass, and personnel was an absolutely massive undertaking that could not be concealed at all.

But at this moment, a piece of explosive news came from the southwest, completely drowning out the commotion caused by the four major families in Jinling and the Lin family.

On the second day of February, the dragon raises its head. On this day, the contemporary king of Nan'an, who has guarded the southwest border for generations, suddenly launched an attack on the neighboring country of Qianxiang with an army of one hundred thousand!
Such important military information was naturally transmitted to the capital at an accelerated speed of 800 miles!

The entire capital was in a state of excitement!

This was the largest overseas campaign of the Daqian Dynasty since Emperor Taizong of Daqian completely stabilized the domestic situation.

In short, the court, which had just slowly returned to normal operations after the afterglow of the New Year, was completely blown away.

A memorial to impeach the Prince of Nan'an County flew to the desk today like snowflakes.

The entire civil service system was quite dissatisfied with the actions of Prince Nan'an at this time. They believed that this person had acted on his own initiative and should be dealt with severely.

In their view, such a thing definitely violated the taboo of the imperial power!
Even if the current emperor is not angry, he will burst into rage, otherwise the imperial power may be affected.

This is no joke and cannot be taken too seriously!

But what happened next left everyone in the court confused and a little confused.

Faced with the flurry of memorials to impeach the Prince of Nan'an County, not only did he not burst out into anger, but he ignored them all, as if there was no such thing.

How is this going?

The current emperor is not really a soft persimmon. He didn't have any overreaction to Prince Nan'an's provocation of imperial power. Isn't this too abnormal?
