Datang: God-level Choice

The steam engine can be said to be the real origin of the industrial revolution. With the steam engine, it means a steady stream of new power.

It is completely possible to gradually get rid of the era of Marathon resistance and enter the era of mechanical power opened by steam engines

With steam engines, will trains and steam ships be far behind? As for the fuel coal required for steam, Datang really has no shortage of

Just the best quality anthracite white coal, the geologists of Datang have discovered several places, and now they have entered the stage of mining.

The biggest problem at present is that these large coal mines have more than 4

1. In the economically backward areas, the transportation is not perfect enough, and the transportation cannot be carried out.

And once there is a steam engine, if you can create steam trains, rails, and steam ships, Datang will no longer be bound by power and traffic to move towards the industrial revolution.

Qin Huaidao suddenly became full of confidence

"What good ideas do you have, husband?"

Wu Meiniang said curiously, usually her husband shows such an expression, which means that he has an idea.

"Those who know me, Mei Niang!"

Qin Huaidao laughed loudly and said, "Meiniang, go and call Lizhi and the others over. We husband and wife will have a good discussion together. This time, we must let these foreign messengers, as well as those corrupt officials, jump into the bowl together."

Chapter [-]: Datang Customs comes out, Qin Huaidao is promoted again

(3/4! Ask for full order!)

The next day, in the imperial study

Seeing the memorial submitted by Qin Huaidao, a smile appeared on Li Er's face.

The above statement is actually very simple. In order to manage Datang's maritime trade more effectively, it is suggested to integrate several existing shipping companies in Datang, and form a new Customs Department, which is directly under the management of Shangshu Province.

One of the things newly established by the Ministry of Customs is to select several excellent ports to open the sea along the coast of Datang, and to drive the surrounding economy through maritime trade.

Li Er is also very clear that the current Dengzhou City in the north has little potential after several expansions, while Yangzhou and other places in the south are actually more suitable as transit stations. It is still a bit difficult to directly undertake the heavy task of sea trade.

Moreover, going to the main maritime trading countries of the Tang Dynasty such as Persia and Dashi Rome, the south has an advantage over the north.

"Yes, what the virtuous son-in-law said was indeed very polite. Now, the prosperity of the maritime trade in the Tang Dynasty and the high income are far beyond everyone's imagination. The good son-in-law is definitely the first credit!"

"In order to avoid corruption, it is indeed urgent to integrate local shipping companies and establish a unified customs."

Li Er nodded with satisfaction and said, and read the memorial to all the ministers.

"Yes, it is indeed very necessary. This year's tariff revenue is likely to exceed 27 million yuan. If it can be coordinated by His Royal Highness King Liao, I am afraid that it can be added a little more."

For the first time, Tang Jian, the Minister of the Ministry of Housing, jumped out and laughed loudly.

Now that the state treasury is rich, his life as the Minister of the Household has been much better, and he no longer has to be charged for debts every day. When he is in a good mood, he will look younger and he will not be clamoring for strikes every day.

"The old minister also agrees with this"

Gao Shilian, the minister of industry, is also cheerful and authentic

In Qin Huaidao's style, once he took office as the first Datang Customs Minister, he would inevitably start the Daxing project.

Although he is the uncle of the eldest grandson Wuji, the relationship between Gao Shilian and the eldest grandson Wuji is not very good. For Qin Huaidao, the grand-niece and son-in-law, they are much closer.

Today's Gao Shilian, under the influence of Qin Huaidao, has initially assumed the nature of an infrastructure madman, and has become addicted to the construction of various large-scale projects.

"Well, yes, the old minister and others also think that it is necessary for Datang to open a few more large ports. Today's Yangzhou and Chuzhou are still a little bit worse."

Fang Xuanling and others discussed it for a while, and nodded in succession.

It is definitely a good thing that the imperial court can expand its hands. With so much income, I can't rest assured that it is handed over to others. Qin Huaidao is definitely the most suitable.

As for the generals led by Li Jing, they have always been reluctant to express their opinions on these matters, but everyone knows that they are the biggest die-hard supporters of Qin Huaidao.

The reason is very simple. The fleet is also owned by the Ministry of War. With Qin Huaidao's style, once he controls the customs, he will definitely not forget to take care of the fleet, and the Ministry of War will just follow and have fun.

"Just like this, the officials will be rectified"

Li Er asked quickly

Income generation must be the top priority, but this official violence must not be stopped.

Just because of the numerous crimes of these officials who have been arrested by Jin Yiwei, Li Er almost died of anger.

"Prince Zheng will be fully recovered soon, and the candidate for Yu is none other than Duke Zheng."

Qin Huaidao said with a smile

"Yeah, but Wei Qing is just recovering from his illness, so it's not suitable for him to be the minister of officials again."

Li Er hesitated for a moment.

"The minister thought that the post of Minister of Officials could be concurrently held by Zhongshu Shilang and Cen Wenwen."

Qin Huaidao smiled slightly.

There was a look of doubt in the imperial study, and Cen Wenwen himself was even more stunned.

The fact that Cen Wenwen stumbled upon Qin Huaidao at the front end could not be concealed from the group of people present, but now Qin Huaidao actually recommends Cen Wenwen, what is the logic of the high authority of the Minister of Officials, especially in the current period of rectification of officials, It is the core key point: the target coveted by countless people.

Even Li Er came back to his senses after a long time, and then laughed loudly: "Okay, a good son-in-law can recommend talents regardless of previous suspicions, and he can be called a model for me in the Tang Dynasty!"

"That's it, Cen Aiqing, you have to learn from Duohe's son-in-law!"
