The Soldier of the Ming Dynasty

The wind direction of governor yuan and Western Liaoning was much faster than Li Yuanqing expected.

On September 15, Liaoxi sent an express to Li Yuanqing, saying that governor yuan would inspect Changsheng island in the near future.

But this express was sent in the morning. In the evening, governor yuan's boat had arrived at nanxinkou wharf.

Chen Zhong was shocked by Yuan's move and said, "Yuan Qing, is this barbarian yuan crazy? He ~, what does he want to do

Li Yuanqing was also a little frightened, but soon forced himself to calm down.

No fire without wind.

Even though Wu Sangui had the news in advance, Li Yuanqing knew that he still underestimated the means of governor yuan.

"Elder brother, governor yuan must have been prepared for this trip. If you and I cover up, I'm afraid we will fall into the inferior position. Elder brother, you should clean up as soon as possible. Let's go to the wharf to meet inspector yuan immediately. "

Chen Zhong also understood Li Yuanqing's meaning for a moment and nodded, "Yuanqing, as it is now, can only be so!"

They quickly changed into formal robes and informed the generals of Changsheng camp. They took important officials of the political affairs department, such as Shang Laoliu and Ma housekeeper, as well as a group of family soldiers, and rushed to the wharf to meet the chariot of governor yuan and his party.

Governor yuan's visit to Changsheng island has become the second highest official in Liaoning Province since Sun Chengzong visited Changsheng island in person!

Governor yuan's fleet was not too large, but it was not too small. There were two large ships, seven or eight medium and fast ships, and the force was almost 2000 people.

When Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong arrived at the wharf, governor yuan was wearing a magnificent Python robe and jade belt and a regular black yarn. He was looking at the scene of the wharf with great interest.

Judging from his appearance, he seems to be in a good mood.

Li Yuanqing, however, did not dare to have too much neglect. He quickly turned over and dismounted. He quickly came to governor yuan and knelt down respectfully. "Li Yuanqing, commander-in-chief of Changsheng Island, has met the governor."

Chen Zhong is also in general.

Governor Yuan said with a faint smile: "Li Jun men, Chen Jun men, please get up quickly. This is a private visit. I don't have to be too formal. "

Chen Zhong didn't expect that governor yuan's attitude would be so soft. He was stunned.

Li Yuanqing, however, responded in an instant. He rubbed Chen Zhong for a moment and said respectfully, "thank you for your kindness." Hurry up carefully.

Chen Zhong then responded. He got up carefully and stood by respectfully.

Looking at the busy civilian wharf nearby, governor Yuan said with a smile, "Li junmen, this wharf covers a lot of land. On weekdays in Changsheng Island, there are so many ships using such a large wharf? "

Li Yuanqing was busy and respectful and said with a smile: "return to the governor's words. In addition to agriculture, another major income of Changsheng island is fishing. In addition, there are also some business contacts in Changsheng island on weekdays. The humble position is biting his teeth and building the wharf bigger. On the one hand, it can rush down the facade, on the other hand, it can mobilize more quickly when going out for the war. "

"Ha ha."

Governor yuan was very satisfied with Li Yuanqing's answer, and said with a faint smile: "Li junmen's courage is amazing. It's good. It's good. "

With that, he slowly and methodically went to the direction of the wharf in front of him. For a moment, he turned back and said with a smile: "Li Jun men, Chen Jun men, would you like to accompany me to the wharf?"

At this time, governor yuan was already the undisputed top official in the Liao Dynasty. He had already made a speech. How could Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong refute his face in public?

He was busy and careful. He was behind governor yuan.

At this time, the military wharf of nanxinkou was very close to the civil wharf, almost inseparable from each other. There was only a simple wooden fence which was not too high.

This is mainly for the purpose of giving full play to the dynamic force of the wharf in the mobilization of large-scale war.

After all, when Li Yuanqing first came to Changsheng Island, he was forced to make the most of the resources.

Of course, the defense of the soldiers on duty is very strict between the civilian wharf and the military wharf.

It was the middle of September, the traditional fishing season of Changsheng island. Although there were not many commercial ships, the fishing boats of all sizes were densely packed, and they were flourishing.

Governor yuan was very interested. He personally came to a fishing boat that was unloading fish. He talked to the fisherman warmly and said with a smile, "how is your harvest today, this strong man?"

The man in question was a middle-aged man in his early 40s. He was very strong and had dark skin. Even though it was a little cold at that time, he only wore a cardigan sweater on his upper body, and his trousers were soaked through. Only the black leather boots were very bright because they were stained with a lot of water.

Chen Zhongxin was surprised to see that governor yuan even asked the fisherman. He took Li Yuanqing, who was beside him, carefully.

Li Yuanqing, however, indicated with his eyes that Chen Zhong didn't have to worry too much.

Because these "fishermen" in Changsheng island are all fishermen under Li Yuanqing's command. They have undergone a certain degree of military training. They are fishermen in fishing season, but they are all qualified sailors in wartime.

However, governor yuan, including Chen Zhong, did not know the details.Although the "Fisherman" is simple and honest, when he saw that their commander-in-chief was serving the civilian official in the python robe, he naturally understood that the civil servant must be a big man.

Busy Han Han Han smile, exposed a mouth of white teeth: "return to the official's words. Today's harvest is not bad. It is estimated that there are four or five big fish, and there are also a lot of shrimp and crabs. It is estimated that at least one hundred and eighty taels of silver can be recorded in the account. "

"Oh? Seventeen 82? That's a lot of it. "

Governor yuan's face changed slightly, but in a moment he returned to nature. He said with a pleasant smile, "this strong man, how long can the fishing season last? How much money can you make during this period? How much labor will be consumed? "

Although governor yuan was proud and eccentric and unpredictable, he was from Dongguan and knew something about fishing.

The questions asked at this time are also very close to the major.

The fisherman said with a smile, "Sir, are you from the south, sir? Our Changsheng island is no warmer than the south. In Changsheng Island, we usually start fishing from the end of August to the beginning of October, which is a month and a half. If you are lucky, this month and a half, the small gross profit can be about 350 Liang silver. However, officials, although the small ship is not too big, the manpower and expenses in various aspects are not small. After tax revenue, the small hand will have a hundred Liang silver. "

"A hundred or two?"

Governor yuan was startled. Unexpectedly, the fishing season in Changsheng island could make an ordinary fisherman have so much harvest. He said, "this hero, I see, the number of fish and shrimps that you have brought to the sea with so many fishing boats is not small, isn't it? This Changsheng island is such a big place that it can consume so much fish and shrimp? "

For a moment, seeing that the fisherman didn't quite understand his meaning, governor yuan quickly said, "this strong man, I mean, there are so many colleagues competing for your fish and shrimps, can you ensure that they are sold at a price?"

Behind him, Li Yuanqing nodded in secret.

Governor yuan Although not so good, his knowledge and knowledge are obviously higher than those of the ordinary Ming Dynasty bureaucrats.

Even though he pretended to be gentle to the fisherman, he did quite well.

After all, he has been climbing out of the mud soup at the bottom. Over the years, he has suffered a lot. Governor yuan's idea of "official standard" is ostentatious. What's more, he treats Li Yuanqing, a general with mud legs. He is still patient with the people at the bottom.

At this time, the fisherman understood the meaning of inspector yuan, and said with a smile: "if you go back to the official, although our Changsheng island is not big, there are not a few foreign merchants and many restaurants. Good fresh fish. Most restaurants will come to buy them. Worse, the people can eat part of it, and most of the rest are left to eat by ourselves. As for the middle, we generally sell them to our commander-in-chief. "

"To the marshal?"

Yuan supervisor turned to Li Yuanqing.

Li Yuanqing hastily bowed his hand and explained: "governor, this is the case. Changsheng Island, after all, is an island with limited land resources. In terms of military supplies, it only relies on livestock, which inevitably leads to some incompetence. Later, I learned a way from the common people. After processing the fresh fish from the fishing season on the island, they made crisp fish and stored them in the jar. In this way, it can not only save money and taste better than salted fish, but also help people solve some problems. "

Governor yuan was not a fool. In a moment, he understood the wonderful use of Li Yuanqing's "circulation system", and nodded his head in deep thought, "wonderful! Wonderful! Li junmen, your method is really wonderful! Even my own official has benefited a lot. "

Then he looked at the fisherman again and said with a smile, "this strong man, do you have any good fish today? I want to buy two and have a taste of it! "

How dare the fisherman neglect him? He opened the net and picked out two of the biggest yellow flowers, and a few fresh crabs and lobsters. They were carefully placed in front of inspector yuan. "Officer, these are the freshest goods. You don't need to cook them in water or steam them. You can sprinkle salt and scallion on them. I'll give them to the officials. "

The fisherman fell to his knees and knocked his head hard.

Governor yuan was so overjoyed that he couldn't help laughing: "good, good! Hero, your intention is taken by the official. But ~, how can I take advantage of you for your hard-working fishing? Come, bring the money. "

For a moment, a servant took a money bag and handed it to governor yuan.

Governor yuan took out a handful of silver chips, about eight to nine or ten Liang, and put them directly into the fisherman's hand. He said with a smile, "hero, tonight, I'll try this fish according to your opinion."

"Officer, how can this be done?"

How dare the fisherman ask for the silver of governor yuan? He wants to return it to him.

However, governor yuan laughed, "you don't want the silver. I don't want this meal tonight, but I can't eat it well. Take it. If you have a good harvest tomorrow, I will buy your fish again. "With that, governor yuan laughed and turned away.

"This..."

The fisherman was busy looking at Li Yuanqing, but Li Yuanqing looked at his nose and his heart, and did not look at him at all.

For a moment, the fisherman also responded. He kowtowed to governor yuan's back and said, "thank you, Lord Qingtian! Thank you

Yuan was not in a better mood. He walked with a little wind.

Back at the military harbor, it was getting dark. Li Yuanqing asked carefully, "governor, tonight, your accommodation..."

Governor yuan waved his hand with a smile, "Li junmen, didn't I just say that? Today, I'm going to try the fresh fish according to the strong man's statement just now. What's more, it's too late today. I'll go back to the city tomorrow. I have brought my camp with me. Well, tonight, camp on this side of the dock. "

The official university level crushed people to death.

Not to mention, it was his supervisor yuan.

He has already made a speech, how can Li Yuanqing refute it?

Don't say that he is going to camp at the wharf. Even if he wants to camp at sea, Li Yuanqing will naturally obey his will.

Soon, the whole military dock side, quickly began to work.
