Everything was in Zhao Changqing's calculations, whether it was Cardinal Fleury who was still floating in the sea all the way to find him, or his subordinates, their reactions were all in Zhao Changqing's calculations.

When He Wenxiu broke into the family banquet of Zhao Changqing and his sons angrily, Zhao Tingyu knew it in his heart and was surprised on his face, and Zhao Tingjin, Zhao Tingyan and Zhao Tingwan were really taken aback.

They never thought that He Wenxiu, who has always been polite, would be so rude and appear at such an inappropriate time.

As the sons of the county government, the four Zhao brothers had very limited time to see their father, let alone sit down to eat together.It's full of calculations, and only the holidays have such opportunities.Therefore, both Zhao Tingjin and Zhao Tingyan and Zhao Tingwan hated being disturbed when they were in front of their father.

He Wenxiu didn't care so much, after he finished the salute, he didn't get up, but raised his head, stared straight at Zhao Changqing and said:

"Dare to ask the Duke, has the Duke ever asked that new cook, Yang Qingxi, about Huaxia?"

Yang Qingxi was given to Zhao Changqing by the British.He is a Cantonese who offended someone in Guangzhou, so he had to choose to flee to Singapore and was brought back to England by a British nobleman.If it wasn't for George II trying to curry favor with Zhao Changqing, he would still be working as a cook in that British nobleman's manor in England at the moment.

Now, of course he is the kitchen master of the county government.

When Yang Qingxi first came to the island, he thought he was dreaming.After all, because of the Ten Days in Yangzhou, the Three Massacres in Jiading, and the iron-blood policy of the Qing Dynasty, the clothes of the Han family have disappeared in that land for nearly 80 years. Even if Yang Qingxi is a pure-bred Han, he is still dressed like a rat with money.

Therefore, when Yang Qingxi first came, the people on the island regarded him as a barbarian, and no one paid any attention to him for a few days.

The language barrier requires [language proficiency] to communicate.

The eating habits are different. People in the Song Dynasty still ate sashimi. In this era, the eight major cuisines of the Qing Dynasty have taken shape.

Living habits are also different. People in the Song Dynasty were no strangers to kneeling and sitting. They even called kneeling sitting upright, and chairs called hu beds. People in the Qing Dynasty had been sitting on chairs for hundreds of years.

One by one, Yang Qingxi once regarded this island as Japan, and made the people on the island extremely disgusted with him.

Until Yang Qingxi came up with his own recipe.

With no friends, and no one willing to communicate with him, Yang Qingxi had no choice but to take his own recipes and continue to refine his own dishes so that he could show his face in the public. This is also the capital for him to settle down on the island.

Neither Yang Qingxi nor the people on the island discovered that this cookbook became the opportunity for them to start communicating.

It was because of this cookbook that both parties discovered something was wrong.

Yang Qingxi discovered that these people seemed to be Han Chinese, probably because they had left the Central Plains for too long, so they did not know that the current Central Plains was the Qing Dynasty ruled by the Manchus.

And for the people on the island, it was a great shame and humiliation that Huaxia fell into the hands of a foreign race!

That's why He Wenxiu came to question Zhao Changqing.

Zhao Changqing replied: "No question."

He Wenxiu was furious: "Does the Duke know nothing about China today?"

Zhao Changqing replied: "I just took a trip to Huaxia myself."

The Kaifeng mansion in the past is now poor and depressed. The Yellow River Water Conservancy Project, which was built with a lot of manpower and material resources in the Song Dynasty, is now dilapidated.

Today's Yellow River is plagued by disasters every year, and the people are in dire straits.However, the Qing government focused on maintaining the rule of the Manchus. While buying people's hearts, it was afraid of the huge number of Han people. As for the real love of the people, it was not as good as those Han officials in vests.

Even his own sons and brothers have to call themselves slaves. What is the future of such a country?Such a king, what talent is there to speak of?

No matter how many good words there are, it cannot cover up the fact that the whole country and society are going backwards.The system of the Qing Dynasty doomed the country's tragic fate in the future.

Even if the current king is the most diligent king in the history of China, it is no exception.

He Wenxiu was stunned: "The Duke already knew about it?"

Zhao Changqing said: "Why do you think I want to encourage births and subsidize babies and children regardless of gender?"

No matter how bad the system of the Qing Dynasty was, its population advantage lay there, at least 30 million people, but what about Zhao Changqing?The total population of his subordinates, together with the immature babies, is less than [-]. Apart from being patient and waiting for the population to accumulate to a certain level, what else can he do?

He doesn't plan to do anything to the Qing Dynasty until the population reaches 1000 million.

Without enough population, it is useless to do more.And it will take at least two generations for the population to change from 30 to 1000 million, and there is no rush at all.

It is the same reason not to pass on the fast-advancing cultivation method. Although the fast-practicing cultivation method can greatly increase the cultivation of the people below in a short time, it also means that they will also be affected by it. Restricted by the laws of heaven.

The more powerful the existence, the harder it is to reproduce.

It's not as good as the kind of practice that is passed down now. If you can't endure hardships, your cultivation base won't be so advanced.If it can't become combat power, then it exists as a reproductive machine.

It may be cruel, but Zhao Changqing is not a philanthropist, he is just a feudal monarch.

At least for now.

He Wenxiu is just a fifth-rank official, maybe he is not as good as the prime ministers of the Song Dynasty and those old foxes in the Privy Council, but it does not mean that he is a fool.

He was just habitually guarding against Zhao Changqing.

But China's current situation has contributed to his change.

The county magistrate had already made arrangements.

As a subject, He Wenxiu would not be angry because Zhao Changqing did not tell him certain things, but he would definitely not want to see Zhao Changqing do things that would harm China's interests or remain indifferent to China's current situation.

If Zhao Changqing didn't care about China in this world at all, and knew nothing about China in this world, He Wenxiu would definitely be angry.But now, since Zhao Changqing had already made arrangements, for He Wenxiu, there was nothing better than this.

After He Wenxiu pondered for a while, she suddenly said: "Please forgive me for being bold, and dare to ask the Duke how to arrange it next?"

"Ok?"

"The lower official means that if the county government wants to develop the population, it needs a piece of land. These two islands alone cannot carry too much population."

Population and land are the potential and key to the prosperity of a country.

Zhao Changqing smiled slightly and nodded to Qin Ye.Qin Ye immediately ordered the servants to spread a map on the ground.

This map is very huge, covering almost the entire room. If the British or the Incas saw it, they would find that no matter whether it was the castles and passes of the British, or the tribes and temples of the Incas, all of them were on this map. There are signs.

This is a complete map of the Americas drawn by Zhao Changqing and Jin Jiang using secret methods, including North America and South America, and even the Arctic Ocean and Antarctica.

Zhao Changqing stood up, took the cane from Qin Ye, pointed to the Caribbean Sea and said, "We are here now, our two islands are here and here. I plan to establish Yingzhou Prefecture here." Zhao Changqing pointed Florida Peninsula, "This peninsula covers an area of ​​about 240 million hectares, which is enough to accommodate our people in a short period of time. Moreover, this peninsula plus our two islands just seals off the Caribbean Sea. Now that we have a small population, we will not move for now. .When the population gradually increases, we can erode westward and make the Caribbean Sea our inland sea."

Today, more and more people on the island have mastered the skills of walking with a sword.If you use a boat to go back and forth between the two islands, it will take about ten days for one round trip, but now that many people have mastered the sword control technique, it only takes a quarter of an hour to go back and forth between the two islands.

Even without sword control, as long as there are many ships, the Caribbean Sea can still be blocked, not to mention that at least one-third of the people below have mastered sword control, and half of them have enough spiritual power to support the journey between the two islands. One-way Yujian line.

Therefore, the blockade of the Caribbean can be put on the agenda.

As for the Florida peninsula, the Indians here have been massacred by the colonists. Now the British have withdrawn from the peninsula. Apart from dead spirits and skeletons, only vampires and witches are left on the peninsula. dark creatures.For Zhao Changqing, as long as he casts [Praise of Light] a few times, these dark creatures will find a way to move away even if they will not die.

He Wenxiu said: "Since the Duke of the county intends to make this sea the Inner Sea of ​​our Great Song Dynasty, how about giving it a name now?"

Zhao Changqing said: "There is no rush. We will have time to talk about it when we really own this ocean."

If the name Caribbean is abandoned now, I'm afraid it will attract the attention of interested people.This is not good for Zhao Changqing's great cause of world hegemony.Therefore, in the case of insufficient strength, the best choice is to lie dormant and wait for the time to come.

Another reason to choose the Florida peninsula is that the peninsula is the Sargasso Sea, which is where Forcus is located.Although Fuerkusi is a sea monster, but where is his ability? His spiritual consciousness is wider than Zhao Changqing.Not to mention that Fuerkusi has been successfully hooked up by Jinjiang.

As long as Fuercus is willing to help, Zhao Changqing only needs to guard against the side of the Florida peninsula close to the Caribbean Sea, which can save a lot of manpower and energy.

While being cautious, Zhao Changqing still told his sons and He Wenxiu about the Sargasso Sea.The female history is also recorded on the side, and I believe it will spread throughout the upper echelons of the county government in a short time.I believe that the county government secretary will come up with a specific plan.

Thinking of Ji Ji, Zhao Changqing couldn't help but think of the current county government.When he left the Great Song Dynasty, the county office was incomplete, and there was only one person in the office of secretary and military officer, and the counselor who joined the army died of malaria because of unaccustomed conditions. Today, there is only one person in the office of the county office!

Zhao Changqing felt that for his great cause of world hegemony, the position and function of the county government had to be adjusted.

Because he was so engrossed in thinking, Zhao Changqing forgot about He Wenxiu and his sons, causing his youngest son Zhao Tingwan to pout.

Although respecting teachers and teaching is very important, for Zhao Tingwan, no matter how important a teacher is, it is not as important as his father.Not to mention that what He Wenxiu disturbed was Jia Yan, who he was looking forward to with his finger pressed down.

Instead, it was Zhao Tingyu. Seeing that his father had not spoken for a long time, he immediately asked Zhao Changqing, "Father, do you want He Zhidao to stay for dinner?"

Although it was a family banquet, He Wenxiu, as the county magistrate, spoke directly, and as the teacher of the princes, according to the tradition of respecting teachers and emphasizing education in the Song Dynasty, he was indeed qualified to attend Zhao Changqing's family banquet.

Moreover, Zhao Tingyu had always been close to He Wenxiu, so he naturally hoped that He Wenxiu could stay for dinner.

Since it was the eldest son who spoke, Zhao Changqing naturally had no objection.

Song Dynasty adopts a meal-sharing system. Even if it is a family banquet, there is a table for each person. There are many dishes on the table, but the portion of each vegetable is not much, and there are differences between men, women, and children.

Here Zhao Changqing nodded, and Qin Ye moved with his servants and maids over there: the map on the ground was put away, and the tables that had just given the place for the map were moved back, but this time, the positions of the brothers When he was about to move, Zhao Tingyu was still sitting first on Zhao Changqing's left hand, but He Wenxiu was sitting first on his right hand, Zhao Tingjin moved to the second from the left, Zhao Tingyan became the second from the right, and Zhao Tingwan was naturally the third from the left.

It's a pity that Zhao Changqing's family banquet today is doomed to be unsafe.

An unexpected visitor visits Stareye Isle.

Xingmu Island is the first island that Zhao Changqing opened up with magic | magic | bomb | bombs. According to normal conditions, large marine life, such as sperm whales, king squids, killer whales, including the Norwegian sea monster kraken, etc. Unable to approach the island on his own.Because the sea water around the island has sunk countless iron li trees vertically, these iron li trees provide convenience for coral polyps to build reefs, and at the same time prevent many giant marine creatures from approaching the island.

But now?

A huge octopus unexpectedly appeared in the inner harbor of Xingmu Island, waving eight tentacles, all of which were covered with huge rocks.

While waving its tentacles, the octopus said: 【Zhao, human!noob!Are you there?I'm sending you rocks! 】

Jin Jiang rushed out immediately: [How many times have I told you, my name is not Xiaobai! 】

[But aren't you white? 】

【I'm white so I should be called Xiaobai. If you can change color, are you still called a chameleon? 】

[Uh~ I don't have a name yet.It's okay if you want to call me a chameleon. 】

[No problem, what a ghost!Chameleons are land lizards!Are you a lizard? 】

【no. 】

[That's enough. ] Jin Jiang took a breath and said: 【So you are an octopus.I thought you were like squid and squid. 】

【What's the meaning? 】

[It means that although octopuses have two less tentacles than squids and squids, they are smarter than squids and squids. 】

【of course! 】

Zhao Changqing clearly felt that the octopus became excited, and the evidence was that he turned orange.

Over there, Jinjiang has directed the octopus monster to put the ore dug up from the deep sea on a treasure ship that has been under a thousand weights.

【Oh, your boat is so big~】

You can tell from the tone of this octopus monster that he is rippling|rippling.

【No matter how big the boat is, it's not yours!Don't try to sink the ship! 】

[But you have so many boats, it won’t be like this if you give me one~]

Looking at this little grievance, one can tell how obsessed this monster octopus is with ships.

There has never been a shortage of talented people in this world. Although they have practiced for less than a year, some people have already cultivated their spiritual consciousness, but their current level is only enough to accept the conversation between Jin Jiang and this octopus monster , and does not have the ability to talk to the octopus monster.Therefore, after hearing the words of the monster octopus clearly, the reaction of those people was to spray water, to be on full alert, to prevent the monster octopus from snatching the boat.

Jin Jiang said angrily: [No way! 】

After thinking about it, Jin Jiang still decided to make a compensation: [I can give you two jack jars later, but those clay pots may not be able to withstand the water pressure of the deep sea.Later, I will ask someone to make you a gold one. I have this authority.But, boat, no! 】

[What is a jackpot? 】

There was no need for Jin Jiang to speak, there were people on the treasure ship who could understand the words of the octopus monster, and immediately lifted the jack tank that was originally used to hold fresh water on the ship to the deck.

Since Zhao Changqing passed down the method of practice, everyone is used to collecting fresh water with the techniques of rain moistening, rain condensation, and water polo, and collecting and using it at any time, so the demand for jack tanks in the fleet is not so much.With this kind of displacement, it is really no problem to free up two idle jack tanks on a [-]-ton treasure ship.

The Octopus was even happier.

Excitedly, he swept away the two jacks with his arms and legs:

[Oh oh oh, it turned out to be a bottle!I love bottles!I like you too!There are still people here who can understand me! 】

[Remember, a tank this big and shaped like this is called a jack tank. 】

[Okay, this is the jackpot.I remember. 】Speaking, the octopus monster "touched" Jinjiang with one arm: 【I like this place, and I like you too. 】

Jin Jiang almost exploded.

[Don't get my hair wet!It's not pretty when it's wet! 】

【Don't you like the sea? 】

[I like it, I don't like it either. 】

【Like it or not?so complicated……】

If it can be materialized, there must be a pair of mosquito coil eyes on the head of the octopus monster.

[I like nature because the sea is rich and there are many delicious foods.I don't like it because I'm a land creature, just like you don't like going ashore. I don't like being in the water all day long. 】

[So that's the case, I understand. 】

【Are you hungry?Do you want to eat? 】

[Oh oh oh~ Do you want to buy me something to eat?Is it a fish? 】

【Whether fish, crab or lobster, you can catch it yourself.I invite you to eat, of course I invite you to eat something unique to land.Do you want a banana?Have you tried lychee?What about coconuts?Durian, mango...]

The octopus monster originally wanted to say that the sea is full of lifelessness and there is basically nothing to eat, but when he heard Jinjiang talking about seven or eight kinds of fruits plus chicken, duck, cattle and sheep, he immediately became hungry.

He said imposingly: 【I want to eat, bring it all up to me! 】

【Row! 】

Jinjiang gave an order, and the handymen in the county mansion broke their legs.

The first one is naturally coconut.There used to be two coconut groves on Xingmu Island, so there is no shortage of coconuts.Under the command of Jin Jiang, those handymen opened the coconut, and then poured the coconut juice and the dug out coconut meat into the suction cups on the octopus monster's arms and legs.

The second thing is naturally all kinds of fruits.There are also durians to help peel, and the rest, whether it is bananas, oranges, mangoes, pineapples, lychees, or rambutans, are all stuffed into the sucker with their shells.

Of course, slaughtered, uncooked chicken, duck, beef, mutton, pork, as well as milk, goat milk, cold soy milk and bean curd residue are indispensable.The cold soy milk and bean dregs are purely make-up, and the biggest use of these two on the island is to feed pigs.

At the end of the meal, the monster octopus burst into tears.

Jin Jiangnu: [Some eat and cry! 】

The octopus said strangely: [I'm crying because I can't eat anymore...]

As a wild siren, what the octopus monster is most afraid of is not being able to find food.Because of the raging undead, there is no food to be found in many places in the sea, and even sea spirits like him are starving.God knows how long he hasn't eaten enough.

He thought that he hadn't had a full stomach for the day.

But now, with so much food, he couldn't eat it!Can he not cry?

Jin Jiang said: [Isn't it easy to eat?Don't attack our boat, we'll let the people on board give you food.Maybe not much else, enough tofu dregs! 】

Soy milk is a must for breakfast, so a large amount of tofu residue is transported to feed pigs every day.hello what isn't hello?

[Really, really? 】

[Yes!You can put your arms and legs on the deck like today.I will tell the people below that I will give you all the bean dregs on the boat.If there is no more, I will give you another fruit.But it's okay, if I give you food, we are not allowed to sink our ship! 】

If you eat our food, you become our family.Jin Jiang said that this deal is a good deal.

【Okay, give me something to eat, and I won't sink your boat.If you don't give food, I will get angry, and I will sink your boat! 】

Now the sea monster's life is not easy, and it is good to have a source of food.As for more or less, that is not a problem.

However, in order to prevent you from lying to the octopus, the words must be made clear.

Jin Jiang thought for a while, and said: [You should not be the only octopus monster who has become a spirit in the sea, right?Go back and help me out. Anyway, as long as you are your compatriots, as long as you agree to this condition, you can beg for food from our ship.However, let's say that not every boat has a lot of things every day. If you come late, there may only be a few fruits. 】

【no problem.I will tell them.Not on one ship, nor on every ship.Just eat something. 】

Octopus monsters said they were also very reasonable.

———————— 6000 first.

The author has something to say:

Regarding the Zhao Song Dynasty that Zhao Changqing came from, Zhao Dezhao successfully ascended the throne and became Song Taizong because he was canonized as the prince early, and Zhao Guangyi was naturally the King of Jin all his life.Zhao Changqing is the grandson of Zhao Defang, and the person who reused him and finally exiled him is his cousin, the son of Zhao Dezhao.

In our history, Xixia was founded in the early days of Song Renzong's reign, while Khitan turned from prosperity to decline during Song Zhenzong's reign, and no longer carried out large-scale southward invasion like the original Tanyuan Alliance.

Attachment: The composition of Zhao Changqing's county government:

There are two prefects and prefects, and their official positions are from the fifth rank: He Wenxiu and Li Donglin.

The capital supervises Qinye, the servant, and manages the internal affairs of the county government.

There are two people in the county government, Yishan, whose official positions are from the seventh rank: Zhang Jingyuan and Zhang Wenyuan.

Among them, Zhang Jingyuan concurrently served as the secretary office and participated in the military (from the eighth rank), and Zhang Wenyuan had just concurrently served as the meritorious service officer of the Ministry of Rites (from the eighth rank).

The county government speaks directly, the official position is from the seventh rank, and He Wenxiu is also in charge, responsible for giving lectures to the county government and the princes of the county government.

Will be the Shaofu, the official position will be from the seventh rank: Li Min

In addition, there is no shortage of praise reading (from the seventh rank) by the county government, and there is no shortage of the county government's consultation and participation in the military (on the fifth grade).

Consulting and participating in the military and the recording office participating in the military, collectively known as Ji Consulting, is equivalent to the Privy Council of the county government in terms of function, providing staff and guarantees for the implementation of the county government.

It is a tradition in the Song Dynasty to emphasize civility over military affairs, and it is a tradition for civilian officials to lead the military. Therefore, the county government secretary is in charge of the five Zhongxian lieutenants under the county government. Zhao Changqing, the Duke of Wancheng County.

So don't underestimate the recruitment envoy. From the ninth rank, the recruiting envoy is already a big official under the command of the county government.
