Farming and teaching across different worlds

,you know too. "

Li Shunde replied with a smile: "That's very good, the emperor will listen to what His Highness said."

The third prince shook his head helplessly, not knowing where Li Shunde's confidence came from.

After entering the room, he heard a violent cough, Li Shunde stepped forward quickly, and stroked the back of the emperor behind the case. After the emperor stopped coughing, he took the tea on the case table and rinsed his mouth for the emperor.

The third prince looked at the person behind the case with complicated eyes. The person who was tortured by the disease now has gray temples and is no longer young. When did the person who was always strong in the impression realize it? I am old, and I have mixed feelings in my heart for a while.

After being soothed, the emperor felt better, and picked up the memorial on the case table to look at it. The third prince standing under the hall couldn't see it and said: "Father's health is important, and these memorials will not be read until the illness is better." Not too late."

At this time, the emperor who was behind the case raised his head and looked over. Although he was happy that his son cared about him, he was still dissatisfied and said: "I am very strong." But he still put down the memorial.

Seeing his actions, the third prince's expression softened a little, but he still said expressionlessly: "Royal father will live forever, but it won't be too late to deal with these official duties after the royal general takes care of his body."

The emperor listened to his words, and there was a faint smile on his face. Although he loves this son the most in his heart, since Zitong passed away, the child has resentment in his heart and has never been close to his father. In order to protect him, he usually It's not easy for him to be too close, which finally caused the two father and son to drift apart. He has forgotten when he heard such caring words like today.

It's not easy to hear a few soft words from him today.

The emperor was in a good mood, so he felt a bit more comfortable physically, and chatted with the third prince with some interest.

However, the third prince felt quite awkward, and couldn't leave with a wave of his sleeves, so he could only listen expressionlessly. Li Shunde saw that the father and son were rarely getting along so harmoniously, so he quietly left with a smile on his face, and sent a message to the imperial dining room for lunch. Time to add a few more dishes that the Third Prince likes.

When the preparations were ready, he came in to report that the lunch was ready, and the emperor took advantage of the opportunity to leave the third prince to eat with him.Although the third prince had no choice but to agree.

I haven't said anything about coming here today, so I can't leave like this.Fortunately, Li Shunde understood his hobbies and made arrangements for everything, so this lunch was quite comfortable.

After lunch, the emperor wanted to take a rest, so Li Shunde tidied up the side hall for the third prince, and left him to rest here. This is the place where he lived when he was a child. Seeing some of the furnishings inside, he has never seen it for more than ten years. It hasn't changed, but it makes him feel emotional.

After the emperor got up in the afternoon, the third prince explained the purpose of his visit this time. After getting along for a day, the third prince's attitude towards the emperor eased a little.

The main reason is that seeing that the formerly strong back has been bent, and the person who has always been strong in his heart is old, and he has complicated feelings in his heart, so he can't bear it.It's just that the grievances of so many years have not dissipated so easily.

Chapter 124

The imperial court began to carry out the reform of the salt field, and Ji Xiuran also started to take action here. The previous [-]-acre salt field has been built, but for Yunzhou, the scale of this salt field is too small.

Immediately, Ji Xiuran chose two more suitable beaches in the surrounding area, and built two more salt farms. Ji Xiuran handed over these two salt farms to the officials under his command, and they soon produced output.

Now the salt farms in other places are still under construction, but the salt farms here in Yunzhou have been able to produce output to supply other places.

Ji Xiuran also made proper arrangements for the previous generations of salt cookers who cooked salt for a living. Those who were unwilling to give up their ancestral business could go to the new saltworks to extract refined salt, and some skilled ones could also carry out refined processing and produce a small amount of salt. Extra refined salt.

Those who do not want to engage in this industry can also choose other ways of living such as mariculture.

Finally, a major matter was resolved, and Ji Xiuran felt a little more relaxed, but after he relaxed, some bad news came from the county under his jurisdiction.

Several fishing villages in Shiwan and Xianglu counties in the southeast of Yunzhou were attacked by pirates.

Ji Xiuran frowned when he saw the official document from the county below. This matter was a bit tricky, so he immediately called for the clerk and asked him to write the official document and send it to Jinghaiwei, asking for support.

At this time, in Shen Chong's camp at Jinghaiwei, they were also discussing the matter. Shiwan and Xianglu counties were far away from Jinghaiwei's camp, but there were also sub-posts set up there, so when the fishing village was attacked for the first time, they were there. Ship patrols were dispatched.

But for such a long time, not only have no pirates been caught, but several fishing villages have been attacked one after another.

This situation made all the officers of Jinghaiwei angry.

Shen Chong sat in the main seat with a serious expression, and after listening to the report of the officer in charge of the sentry, he frowned and said, "I don't believe it anymore, those pirates passed by from the bottom of the sea, so I can't find any traces of them." ?”

The officer knew that he was not good at doing things, so he listened to the training honestly, but in the end he had no choice but to justify: "General, these thieves are really too cunning. Every time they pretend to be ordinary fishing boats during the day, explore the way on the shore, and rob them in the middle of the night." , Jie, it’s really hard to catch them.”

Everyone frowned when they heard this. If this is the case, then it is really difficult to deal with. Those pirates have been haunting the sea for a long time, and they are no different from ordinary fishermen. They can also speak the local language. It is really difficult to tell if they are sincere .

At this time, the selection soldier outside the account reported outside the account: "Report, there is an urgent message from Yunzhou."

Shen Chong was stunned for a moment, then asked someone to come in, took the letter to read immediately, and passed it to the people around him after reading it, letting them circulate it.

Seeing that everyone's faces were quite complicated after reading it, he said: "Now Yunzhou has sent a message to ask us to support you. How do you reply? Do you want to reply to them? Can Jinghaiwei have no way to find the thief? Anyway I can't afford to lose face, you all listen to me, no matter what method you use, you must find out the origin of these thieves within three days."

Everyone was a little ashamed when they heard this, and then they left with solemn expressions.

Shi Jingchen didn't leave, but pondered for a while, and said, "How about writing back to Xiuran, my little brother, and explaining the situation to him."

Shen Chong hesitated for a moment. To be honest, he didn't want to publicize these embarrassing things, and he felt that the most important thing now was to catch the pirates. Explaining the difficulties they encountered to others might not be of any help.

Shi Jingchen understood his scruples, so he expressed his thoughts: "Xiu Ran may have a solution to our problem. Don't worry, brother, I will send him a private letter instead of an official document."

Shen Chong finally nodded, although he felt that talking to Ji Xiuran might not be of any use, but in case he came up with a solution, let's treat the dead horse as a living horse doctor.

When Ji Xiuran received the letter from Shi Jingchen, he carefully thought about the solution.Without any clue, he casually flipped through the book of memory.

They saw the ship registration by accident, and their eyes lit up. They can learn from this method to register fishing boats.

Just do what you say, the next day, Ji Xiuran asked the yamen to issue official documents, and every fishing boat had to go to the dock for registration with the certificate issued by the village.

At the dock, he asked the ship supervisor to cooperate, and each fishing boat was registered, and each fishing boat was assigned a code. This code was recorded in the register just like the ID number of the boat, and it was also recorded in the On the boarding pass, this string of codes is also engraved on the keel of the hull at the same time.

The registration card is divided into two, one is kept by the dock, and the other is kept by the owner of the ship. This is the identity card of the ship.

When the patrol boat patrols and inspects, it looks at the registration plate and checks whether the code on the plate is consistent with the code on the hull.

The registered code is a series of regular codes composed of letters and numbers. These symbols are not found in the Great Xia Kingdom, so ordinary people don't understand their meanings when they see them.

Finally, the registration list must be distributed to all villages and towns for verification and filing. Anyway, we will try our best to be comprehensive.

At the same time, every new ship made in the dock will also have to be engraved with a code, and it will be registered at the time of purchase.

The battleship also gave a set of codes at the same time, and took advantage of this opportunity to register them uniformly to facilitate future standardized management.

When Jinghaiwei received the news, he couldn't help admiring Ji Xiuran's quick thinking and intelligence.

After all the fishing boats were registered, when Jinghaiwei conducted another inspection, it was easy to find the pirates pretending to be ordinary fishermen.In just a few days, more than [-] people were arrested, and the rampant pirates on the coast of Yunzhou were temporarily stopped.

Time flies, and soon Ji Xiuran has been in office for half a year, and soon the end of the year will be ushered in.

As the end of the year approached, Ji Xiuran also started to get busy. After organizing the ceremony to worship the Sea God, he had a chance to breathe, but he also just welcomed an unexpected guest.

When the convoy passed outside their mansion, someone entered the door to announce, and Ji Xiuran came out of the mansion to greet them in a hurry.

This is Boss Zheng's motorcade. When Ji Xiuran was an official in Mozhou, Boss Zheng brought his business to Song County, and in order to make room for them, he would go from Qingshan Village to the outside of the customs every winter to do business. Also send something to Ji Xiuran.

Now that Ji Xiuran has come to Yunzhou, Boss Zheng took advantage of the opportunity to start his business in Yunzhou. For their convenience, he chose
