I became the son of Renzong

Chapter 788

The truly astonishing interior of this ship, even Fu Bi, who had seen luxury before, was shocked by the interior facilities of the ship.

It is common practice in the country to enjoy pleasure, but the court treats officials in a different way...

"Fu Xiang, don't worry that I'm greedy for pleasure. I estimate that I will only use this ship very rarely. In the end, this ship is still used for business..."

Thinking about it, Fu Bi felt relieved about the official's behavior of sitting on the ground in front of the field ridge yesterday.Those who sit casually on the ridge of the field are the officials, and those who enjoy in such a luxurious boat are also the officials. Those who are left and right in the Song Dynasty are the real officials.

The accompanying soldiers were also in casual clothes, and as the soldiers took their positions, the ships set sail.

Zhao Xi really wanted to call this ship a yacht. Except for the power, everything else was based on the simple diagram Zhao Xi drew based on his own impression of watching TV in later generations. Of course, the shape has nothing to do with Zhao Xi. It is Li Jie and Su Song. , Shen Kuo and others, as well as the painstaking achievements of the craftsmen in the entire workshop city... It's a big deal.

The extravagance of the dynasty is prevalent, whether it is a cruise ship in Bianliang or a passenger ship on the Grand Canal, there has never been one as exquisite as this one, so this will be another new benefit for the workshop city.

And Zhao Xi's ship is just the essence of all the craftsmanship in the workshop city.

Zhao Xi didn't know how the workshop city was weighted on the cruise ship, anyway, it did have the shape of a later cruise ship.This is the crystallization of the combination of Zhao Xi's later ideas and the aesthetics of the Song Dynasty.

To be honest, the shipbuilding industry of the Song Dynasty was already advanced... of course it is aimed at this era.Da Song also has a mind of tolerance and acceptance, that is, the shapes mentioned by Zhao Xi are out of date, but the workshop city still achieves an organic combination, so that officials can experience his ideas reflected.

In fact, Zhao Xi's paintings, which are not abstract and not vivid, are all based on Li Jie's speculation.

On the second-floor platform, Zhao Qin is making tea humbly, and Zhao Xi is sitting leisurely on a semi-circular sofa-like thing... I don’t know how the workshop city is made, and the experience is similar to that of later generations The sofa is not much different.

"Is this sheepskin?"

Fu Bi is quite knowledgeable, just touch it casually a few times.

"Returning to Fuxiang, it is sheepskin. I heard from the craftsmen in the workshop city that it is the first layer of leather. It has been processed and has no peculiar smell. The lining is bullet rings... the same as the official carriage. It is similar to earthquakes. With felt pads, cotton, etc., it is durable and difficult to damage.”

It was Zhao Qin who answered, even Zhao Xi didn't know about it.Zhao Qin was not spoiled, her movements, behavior, and etiquette were all in the right order, and she behaved like a servant when facing the officials and the prime minister.

"Shopkeeper Zhao, what is the final purpose of this ship?"

Fu Bi bowed his hands and called Zhao the shopkeeper, which meant that Zhao Qin was not regarded as a real person.

This moved Zhao Qin very much. Of course, everything was given by the officials.

"Returning to Fu Xiang, the boat was custom-made by the inner government in the workshop city. As for the use, it should be decided by the empress, not a concubine who should gossip."

"I think that this cruise ship is more beneficial to be used as a model than for business operation, and it can be regarded as a report to the painstaking efforts of the master craftsmen in the workshop city..."

In the end, it is because of the experience on the scene that the words are not leaking.

The ship was used by the official, and it was still custom-made in the name of the official. If it is really used for business as the official said, it does not conform to the etiquette system.

It is said to be a model, but it actually defines the nature of this ship...

All the way leisurely, the merchant ships, cargo ships, and passenger ships passing by the Wuzhang River were all attracted by this streamlined cruise ship.

Of course, no one has dared to be rude... Those who can get the latest craft ships in the workshop city are not something ordinary merchants can provoke, but people are all thinking about going to the workshop city to inquire.

Fu Bi was extremely skeptical that the purpose of this waterway trip was to promote the craftsmanship of the workshop city.

I didn't get off the boat all day, and even spent the night on the boat.And the sophistication of the rooms, and the smooth sailing, make it hard to tell you're on a boat.

Fu Bi didn't care, he didn't ask about the destination at all, he didn't even have any doubts about the boat diverting to the north, he just followed.

For some years, Fu Bi has never been so leisurely.

Although there are also banquets in Bianliang, those inviters all have one purpose or another.Dining has never been easy.

Only in this way, accompanying the officials, Fu Bi doesn't have to worry about asking for himself, and can truly relax.

Drinking tea, tasting wine, discussing the new poems circulating in the country...~This is really playing.

"Official, where are you going?"

At the beginning of the next day, Fu Bi finally couldn't hold back anymore.

The busy state affairs made the court and cabinet ministers overwhelmed, and I really accompanied the officials on trips...~ In just one day, Fu Bi couldn't make it through.

"Fu Xiang...should be here."

"Is this Liang Shanluo?"

"Yes, it is Liang Shanbo."

"Why is this official?"

"Fu Xiang, reform of the water transport, where are the soldiers and subordinates of the water transport yamen originally supported by the imperial court?"

"Nothing to do! Merchants buy out the right to operate the water transport. They are not as merciful as the imperial court. It is the right thing to reduce personnel and reduce expenses."

Zhao Qin was responsible for Fu Bi's remark, and it was not intentional.

"Officials, this matter is a matter after all. Because after the Yinxia was destroyed in the early stage, industries and mines from all over the country recruited slaves in the Yinxia area. At present, the employment of various industries in the country has stabilized. Although the imperial court is promoting immigration to the northwest area, but It is a bit inappropriate to transport these remaining people to graze..."

"At this stage, the imperial court is only providing temporary appeasement, and is considering how to divert and resettle them..."

At the beginning, the officials only said that they were temporarily staying, and did not mention how to arrange these people.The cabinet thought it was left to the imperial court by the officials, but after several discussions, they couldn't find a suitable way.

It's just that the imperial court is busy with affairs and has plenty of spare money, so it doesn't take care of dealing with these tens of thousands of people for a while.However, Fu Bi didn't understand why the officials asked about this matter.

"Fu Xiang, how is Liang Shanbo?"

"Huh? Liangshanluo is due to several diversions and impacts of the Yellow River, which has accumulated over the years, forming a water village with a radius of several hundred miles. The alluvial and silted tidal flats are not suitable for farming, and a large area of ​​tidal flat wasteland is left unused. But here Aquatic products are quite rich...the official said..."

When Fu Bi said this, he understood.It's not difficult to think about it, but it's also because he saw this water area that he was reminded by the officials... This is what the officials said in theories, emancipating the mind and developing ideas?
"Exactly! The imperial court listed Liangshan Po separately, and planned to build a collective fishery trading company. The Si Nong Temple guided land reclamation, tried to grow food, and developed fisheries in the waters that have already formed..."

"Whether it's state-run, public-private partnership, or private, all the people eliminated by water transport will be resettled here. With this good land, it shouldn't be a problem to support tens of thousands of water transport leftovers and their families."

"In my opinion, Liangshanluo is different from Jinghu Lake. It is not harmed by mosquitoes and wild animals. It is most suitable for the development of fishery..."
