Pawn Crossing the River

Although it was delayed for a few days, Utu successfully borrowed a large ship and prepared to go to sea.

Whether it is a "solar boat" or a "moon boat", they are heavy weapons, just like the "Yinglong", which cannot be easily moved. Huangfuji just transferred a "horned dragon" and used it.

Tantai Ying got an advantage. In the past, Xidaomen couldn't distinguish between manpower. This time, thanks to Qi Xuansu, so many men were dispatched at once. There were two pseudo-immortals, and Qi Xuansu was barely one. The separatist forces were successfully integrated. .

In the past, Hu En'ahan, Wutu, and Qi Xuansu himself had to be in the north, guarding against the steam gospel in the northern continent, and could not care about things in the south.

Fight a battle, fight evenly, no one can win, and both sides will stop.

Tantai Ying wanted to stay and continue to deal with some follow-up matters, so the people going out to sea this time were mainly Qi Xuansu, Hu En'ahan, and Wu Tu, and they were also equipped with some necessary manpower to drive the "Ceratopsian".

Before leaving, Qi Xuansu also had a talk with Xu Jiaorong. Xu Jiaorong complained bitterly and complained that Chen Jianchou didn't listen to her. She was kind enough to help make the connection. This guy was indifferent to other girls, as if he was great. Yes, after all, I still haven’t forgotten Chen Jianqiu.

Qi Xuansu didn't feel the same way. Firstly, he had never suffered in matters between men and women. Secondly, he didn't have the consciousness of a parent to worry about marriage. After all, Xiaoyin was just a child. He was only thinking about eating, drinking and having fun, and he didn't know how to love men and women. like. But this girl does know how to be in power. Other people's children are playing house and marrying wives, and she is playing house and becoming the emperor. This is probably the black man who is close to the ink.

But Qi Xuansu does have a suggestion - he likes to order Yuanyangpu.

"Ke Qingqing next to Chief Zhang is also alone, which I think is good." Qi Xuansu said.

This statement really reminded Xu Jiaorong that Ke Qingqing would definitely have a good future if she followed Zhang Yuelu. Although she was not from a prominent family, her two old bosses, Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu, were her backers. This was also a disguised form. The key to his family background is that he has a clean background and good conduct. After all, a person who both Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu recognized is not bad at all and is actually an excellent candidate.

Moreover, Chen Jianchou and Ke Qingqing have known each other for a long time and have interacted with each other a lot. He can't help but talk in front of Ke Qingqing, right?

"Chief Qi, you are so awesome. You solved my problem with just one sentence." Xu Jiaorong said sincerely, "I really want to thank you."

Qi Xuansu said: "But it has to be agreed by others. You can't force the head of a cow if it doesn't drink water. Having said that, there is nothing to disagree with. Yuozheng is still a good person. The problem is that Yuozheng is going back to Nanyang, and Xiao Ke is probably I wanted to follow Qing Xiao to Yujing, but I missed it again. "

Xu Jiaorong said: "It doesn't matter, it's the same thing if we have a sutra to communicate through the air."

Qi Xuansu smiled and said: "That is different, very different. But I also want to advise you, your children and grandchildren will have their own blessings, don't do anything for your children and grandchildren. This is what Xuansheng said to the Li family back then, without Xuansheng's care , The Li family is still in full swing, so you don’t have to worry too much.”

Xu Jiaorong smiled bitterly: "Before there was Xuansheng, the Li family was the overlord of the East China Sea. After there is Xuansheng, the Li family will be the overlord of the world. How can ordinary people compare with the Li family?"

Qi Xuansu stopped talking and said: "I told my master about Yuzheng, and you have also met my master. What he meant was that my uncle Pei Xiaolou became the second seat. Xie Jiaofeng can take advantage of the situation and become the third deputy palace master of Shenglong Palace, while Ji Jiaozhen will succeed Xie Jiaofeng as the fourth deputy palace master of Lion City.

"Speaking of which, after all, Sheji Palace is located over there in Shenglong Palace. The Grand Master, the Master, and the Second Deputy Palace Master are all there, so there can be no problem. This is the Lion City, which is an offshore place and an important economic and trade town. There is a mixture of fish and dragons, so the chief deputy palace master is permanently stationed here, and is assisted by the fourth deputy palace master. "

"Brother Ji Jiaozhen is capable, but he has a lazy temper. He is used to it. It is not easy to be an official, but it is difficult for him to take on a big responsibility. From now on, you two will be partners, and the important financial and taxation responsibilities will still fall on you. For the two of them, the position left vacant by Ji Jiao, that is, the deputy palace master of Funan Kingdom, was filled by Yu Zheng. This place was once the birthplace of the insect people. There are many Buddhists, but the burden is not light. "

Xu Jiaorong said worriedly: "I have also considered this, just because I'm afraid he won't be able to suppress it."

Qi Xuansu said: "You don't have to worry too much. Qingxiao is going to Yujing. Master Cihang is there, so there is no need for Lao Lin to follow. In addition, Lao Lin doesn't want to go to Yujing. The three Nanyang friends don't want to separate, so they let Lao Lin stay. In Nanyang, with Lao Lin watching, there won’t be any big problems.”

Xu Jiaorong's worries turned into joy: "Then I have to express my gratitude to Assistant Lin."

Qi Xuansu said: "You figure it out. I still have something to do here, so that's it for now."

After ending the call, Wu Tu came forward to report to Qi Xuansu about borrowing the boat. He also wanted to excuse himself. It was not that he was careless, but the boat was really out. The Daomen had recently supported a lot of good things. If he was worried about using an ordinary flying boat, he might as well just Just use the "solar boat" to transport it.

Qi Xuansu didn't say anything more: "'Ceratopsian' is just 'Ceratopsian'. As far as I know, you and Hu En'a Khan are both kings and hegemons on land. They are afraid of things at sea." I'm not very familiar with it. Do you have a reliable leader or boat master? Don't bring a newbie here and end up getting lost and throwing us at sea. "

The so-called "general leader", there are hundreds of people in large ships and more than a hundred in small ones, with giant merchants as the leader, deputy leaders, and miscellaneous people. It is roughly equivalent to the captain, except that the captain is what Westerners call him, while the Easterners call him the leader. The Daomen side was influenced by Westerners and was sometimes called Captain. The Southern Continent side was hostile to Western learning, so they still used the old name.

The navigator also has some duties as a captain, which is roughly equivalent to that of a pilot, assisting the leader in steering the ship.

Wu Tu said: "Ren Zhenren Qi, don't worry, not only the leader and the boat master, but also the head of affairs, department leaders, direct treasury, and companions are all available."

These names are the main leadership of a ship. As the names suggest, the chiefs and subordinates are responsible for managing people, the direct storehouse is responsible for the warehouse, and the companions are the sailors.

Qi Xuansu said: "Invite Gang Shou and the boat master. I want to see them."

Utu took the order and left.

Not long after, a man and a woman came over. The woman is younger, her face seems to be covered with a layer of frost, she is the leader. The man's beard and hair are all white, he is very old, and he is a boat master.

The two of them saluted Qi Xuansu and introduced themselves to their families.

The leader's name is Yang Shaozhen, who is from Xidaomen. The boat master's surname is Pang, and he is known as Lao Pang.

Qi Xuansu sighed casually: "It's rare to see a female leader."

Yang Shaozhen raised his eyebrows: "Does Master Qi look down on women?"

Qi Xuansu was startled, and then asked: "Where do you start talking about this?"

Yang Shaozhen said: "If you don't look down on women, why should you say something that is rare for a female leader?"

Qi Xuansu asked back: "Are there many female leaders? Don't mention an example, let me ask you the ratio. If you don't say 50% out of 100%, can there be 10% or 20%?"

Yang Shaozhen was speechless.

Qi Xuansu said: "That's very few. Since what I said is an objective fact, how can I talk about looking down on women? You can't just ignore the facts, right? Do you have to ignore the facts to cater to the correctness of equality?"

Yang Shaozhen said: "Even if you are young, you can't say that Taoism advocates equality. In the past, men bullied women. This is what men owe women."

Qi Xuansu laughed again: "In the past, women were bullied, but you were not bullied. In the past, men bullied women, but I didn't bully you. How can you say that I owe you?"

Yang Shaozhen said: "In the past, Japanese pirates ravaged the coast of the Central Plains, burning, killing and looting. However, today's Japanese do not admit their guilt. They say that it was done by the Japanese in the past and has nothing to do with today's people. But what is the explanation? This is not the same as what Qi Zhenren said. ?"

Qi Xuansu said: "You are just changing the concept. The Japanese only have hatred and no kindness to us. But the women of the past are also the ancestors of today's men; the men of the past are also the ancestors of today's women. It is said that Oppression, today’s men also have the blood of those who were oppressed, but if they say they oppress others, today’s women also have the blood of those who oppressed others, but what’s the explanation?”

"To redress the injustice, the son was also born to the mother. Who should be atonement, and who is clean? Does it mean that the daughter only has the blood of the mother and not the blood of the father? What kind of truth is this?"

"So, this is not something that can be compared to Japanese pirates, nor can it be compared to Westerners from the Northern Continent enslaving other tribes. Only when yin and yang come together can there be descendants. In this way, there is me among you, and you among me. How come you are so clean? , became the target of oppression?”

"This can't help but remind me of the teachings of the Holy Court. It is believed that people are born with original sin, so they must constantly atone for their sins, so indulgences came into being. What you said about who owes whom is nothing more than changing the teachings of the Holy Court. , thinking that some people are born with original sin, and they need to atone for their sins and buy indulgences. I still say the same thing, if you really have this kind of original sin, you are also a descendant of someone who has original sin. Without original sin, where would you be? It’s just that you’re not oppressed, so I don’t owe you anything. I’m afraid it won’t be my turn to buy the indulgences printed by the old almanac.”

"If you speak frankly and dare to say that the Grand Master and the Emperor have never been held by women, and the top positions are still dominated by men, this is the greatest injustice. No matter you are right or wrong, I have to admire you, but you dare Say it? I’m afraid I don’t dare.”

"In that case, it's better not to say anything. It would be rude to say anything more."

Yang Shaozhen was silent for a moment and said, "I was wrong."

Qi Xuansu waved his hand and said: "You are not wrong, it is the world that is wrong. It is too much, too much, and it is too much. This is true of Confucianism, and so is the equality of Taoism. Okay, let's not talk about this anymore, Master Pang Zhou."

The white-haired old man said quickly: "Master Qi just calls me Lao Pang."

Qi Xuansu said: "I guess you already understand the situation. Can you find this place?"

Lao Pang said: "I know a thing or two, it should be Yin Yue."
