Go back to ancient times to be a royal merchant

Sinking the Kou country and colonialism after defeating the Kou country are two different concepts. The emperor is not happy with the Kou country.Even looking at the islands of the Kou Kingdom is not pleasing to the eye, but it is also clear that the geographical location of the Kou Kingdom is not important to Daliang. Abandoning the former, the emperor has nowhere to vent his unhappiness, so he let the general who is good at water warfare take the main attack After the kingdom of Kou, all the royal family of Kou and the nine noble families were driven into the sea.Naturally, no one objected to the emperor's request.

Standing behind his father, Wang Xiujin secretly rolled his eyes in his heart. The country of Kou is only a little bigger and has a population. If all these people are driven into the sea, it is estimated that there will be no people in Kou country.Li Sushan was not the commander of the army this time, no one from the Li family or the Wang family jumped out to object, and Li Sushan was not disappointed. He is not very old, and the Li family is not good at water warfare.Wang Xiujin wished he had nothing to do with Li Sushan, but there are no undead in any battle, even if there are powerful weapons, there will be casualties.

Wang Xiujin always thinks that he has made enough preparations for military families, but he still has a little bit of concern in his heart. He can fully support all Li Sushan's decisions, but he still has a little extravagant hope that he can live together. Who wants to live and die? Parting, no matter how strong he is, no matter how manly he is, no matter how brave he is, no matter what, without the person who can accompany him, even thinking about it will make his heart ache.Wang Xiujin never felt that the relationship between him and Li Sushan was so powerful and powerful, but they skipped the love of family and loved each other.

The return to Wang Village was delayed due to the Kou country incident, so he sent someone to send a letter, and Wang Xiujin went to the shipyard again. Although Li Sushan was not the main attacker, he was busy handing over the newly trained sailors to the current commander , and he has to prepare for reinforcements at any time.This time the coach was the general who proposed to keep the Kou country. The general felt a little guilty about Li Fushan. The attack went smoothly and he took the Kou country in one fell swoop. It was excellent, and Li Sushan knew more about warships than he did. If nothing unexpected happened, Li Sushan could take this place even if he led the army well.

After the general took the commander's seal, he went straight to Li's house and apologized to Li Sushan.Old General Li met the general very kindly, and talked with the general for a long time. After the general left, Old General Li stood in the study with his hands behind his hands, with a smile on his mouth, and then shook his head. It will be thrown to Kou Island to be stationed for a long time.With the narrow mind of the emperor, how could it be possible for a person who jumped out to oppose him to look down at him.

On the fifth day of Wang Xiujin's stay in the shipyard, the coach brought people here in a hurry. Wang Xiujin introduced the steward of the shipyard and took him on the big ship for a round. The big ship under construction could not be boarded for a viewing due to various reasons. The coach was not angry, but felt that Wang Huangshang was very gracious, and he was prepared to be embarrassing before he came.Unexpectedly, not only did Wang Huangshang not care about it, but he was very careful, and many details were not left behind, which made the coach very ashamed.

Wang Xiujin didn't know what the coach was thinking, and if he knew, he probably didn't know how to react.After explaining everything about the boat to the captain, Wang Xiujin handed over the remaining matters to the boss, and hurried back to the capital.As soon as he arrived in the capital, before he could sit still, he was invited by Xiao Qin. The purpose was to move the fort. How tall and long the big ship was, and how many forts it could hold, all needed to be discussed with Wang Xiujin.

Before he had time to say hello to Xiaopa, Yachang pouted when he saw Xiaopa being invited away, feeling very bad.Then he went to the martial arts room and felt comfortable after playing two sets of boxing.

In the evening, as soon as Wang Xiujin came back to the mansion, Li Yachang stood in front of father and daddy's house with pillows in his arms, and he wanted to sleep with daddy.Li Sushan raised his eyebrows, Wang Xiujin couldn't laugh or cry, he repeatedly promised that he would not leave the capital soon, and then coaxed his stubborn son back to his room.I don't know who my son looks like.Li Sushan looked at his son's figure, and he felt that it was necessary to have a good communication with his son.

Busy and busy, it is the end of the year in a blink of an eye.There was good news from the shipyard that the two large ships could go to sea to test the water, and Xiao Qin sent the first batch of forts there.On the other hand, King Xiubo of Feng'an received the imperial decree that the big ship will try to land for combat practice, which requires the cooperation of the people.

When everyone was busy, Wang Xiujin was not idle. He checked the annual income with the treasurer Wang, and brought boxes of money into the mansion. Wang Xiujin felt that it was necessary to discuss with the emperor about issuing unified banknotes, one box every year. Another box of money made it difficult for him to sleep well.The money was divided into two parts, one for personal use and one for the palace.If it wasn't for the war, Wang Xiujin would not have planned to donate money this year. The investment in rail cars is quite a lot. Although wooden bicycles are still selling well, the money invested in rail cars is not a small amount. If the court doesn't give money, even if he No matter how much money you can make, you can't make ends meet.

Sending the money to the palace, Wang Xiujin considered it a matter of concern, but he didn't know that because of his donation of silver, the officials in the court were grinding their teeth at him. The treasury was clearly abundant, so why would he still want to donate money to show his presence.But if they wanted to blame, they couldn't blame Wang Xiujin, but the officials who followed suit.

In the early days of the emperor's reign, the emperor announced the donation of money from the emperor's merchants, and praised Wang Xiujin a lot. Then some officials came out one after another, expressing their willingness to do their best. These officials include civil servants and military generals, and their official ranks are not low. , lower-ranking officials, officials who had no intention of donating money at first, watched their colleagues come out to donate silver to show their loyalty. If they did not smoke, they would look different, so they bit the bullet and knelt down.The emperor was very happy, so he asked the minister of the household department to record it himself, and to make meritorious deeds, engrave the names of officials who donated money and the amount of money donated on it.

After retreating from the court, some officials began to grind their teeth. They knelt down with the wind, but they didn't think about how much money they wanted to donate. If there is less, I am afraid that the emperor will not like it, so I am in a dilemma.

Hearing the words "Gongshan Wall", Wang Xiujin almost didn't laugh and cry. The emperor's move was cruel enough. Even though the emperor has killed many corrupt officials, there are still some people who are bold. It's not that the emperor doesn't know, it's just that Kou Guo attracted him With all the attention of the emperor, let these officials go first, and then slaughter them after they are fattened up.Wang Xiujin suspected that the emperor set up the "Wall of Merit and Goodness" on purpose, to let those who don't seem to eat very well spit out what they ate.

The coach who tested the ship at sea took the sailors to try the ancient version of "landing on the beach". After a "scramble" with the soldiers on the rock, he was overjoyed and quickly reported to the court. Moving speed, etc., dizzy all-round praise.During the period of staying in Feng'an, the coach heard that the imperial merchants had donated half of their net worth to fight against Kou, and was very moved. He wrote a letter to the family and ordered his family members to donate half of their net worth.

Wang Xiujin was deeply moved when he heard this.The emperor was also helpless by the behavior of the coach, and ordered the household department to only charge [-]%, not to charge more.Another decree was sent to the coach.

The Fourth Prince has been running to the General's Mansion recently, and this time he is going to fight against the Kou Kingdom, he also wants to go with him. Although he is not the commander-in-chief, he also has the name of the deputy commander. He ran to the Li family to ask for some strategies, and he didn't want to be looked down upon by others. some common sense.Wang Xiujin could only roll his eyes secretly in his heart. If you want to say that the fourth prince often goes to the imperial study room to open a small cover in the palace, criticize politics, and make money. From time to time, when he talked about the point, the emperor was angry and helpless.

Everyone in the Li family is not proficient in water warfare. The strategy was written by Li Sushan, so Li Sushan gave advice to the fourth prince. Li Sushan's strategy is not very good. Li Sushan's strategy has been changed again and again to maximize the role of the big ship, but the strategy, except for the main purpose, has changed from going to sea to launching attacks and so on.

What Li Sushan can give advice to the fourth prince is to explain the big ship carefully. The fourth prince's eyes lit up when he heard it. He has poor military ability, but he can also imagine how high the attack power of the big ship is. If the boat is parked by the sea, it can also scare away those who plan to do evil.After hearing Li Sushan's worries about the sky, the fourth prince also became worried, and when he returned to the palace, he told his father about his worries.

The emperor knew the emperor very well. He felt that the emperor's worry was definitely not something he thought of. After asking a few words, the emperor made a statement. The emperor lit the table and did not say anything about Li Sushan's whims. He understood the power of artillery. What if someone actually dropped the cannon from the sky?Then there is absolutely no escape. How to add a layer of resistance to the sky, the emperor needs to find the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs to talk about it.

After the seaside freezes one after another, people begin to prepare for the New Year. In recent years, the atmosphere of the New Year in the capital is particularly strong. The people have money in their hands, and they don’t feel bad at all when they buy things. When the year comes, they seem to be buying like loose money. Buy and buy, tear cloth to make new clothes, cut meat to make dumplings, beautiful jewelry to add festiveness to the one at home, and various snacks and snacks for the children to try.There was a lot of people lined up at the desk asking to write festive couplets. Not far from the entrance of the Wangjialiang shop, there was a stall for writing couplets. Finally, he slapped his thigh with regret, "Yesterday I spent five dollars to buy a pair. If I knew that the little gentlemen in Xinlou would send out a pair today, I wouldn't have spent any money to buy them."

"You also said it was Mr. Xiao, so how do you know that their writing is better than the one you bought back?" Wang Xiujin stood at the door of the shop and heard this, and answered with a smile.
