There is a home in the depths of the white clouds

Chapter 369

It was enough for Wu Youwei to open a shop, and the little girl didn't know what to worry about all day long.

The last one belonged to two aunts. They couldn't read, so they just greeted a few words at the end of the letter, saying that the family was well.

Wu Da and Wu Er also sent letters, which were also sealed in envelopes. They were talking about Wujia Village, and they were also searched. There was nothing, but some living facilities were eye-opening.

Now everything in Wujia Village is normal. Although it was a bit dry in spring, there is Moling Lake, and they have waterwheels, and the crops such as corn are drought-resistant, so there is no delay at all.

The letters from the younger sisters are almost the same, everyone is good, ask him how he is, and then worry about whether the people around him outside can serve him well?He also heard about some things in the south, and most of the things that were sent to him were edible and useful. The brothers-in-law were reliable, and each of them gave him a lot of new copper coins and new silver coins.

Said to let him reward people outside, because it is all new money, rewarding people with face.

Just some homely words.

Wu Youwei didn't take it seriously, just look at it, it's all from his own family.

Wantong has few letters, but Wu Youwei has many letters, and there are many things from the two families outside.

After reading it, seeing that it was too late, I didn't touch those gifts, and planned to look at them tomorrow.

It's not too late anyway.

Because of reading the family letter, I was very excited. The two of them lay side by side on the bed and could not fall asleep for a long time. Wantong was better. He had not returned to Beijing for a year because of his mission. My son hugged and cried all night, it was horrible.

Since then, his longest business trip has been three months.

Emperor Changxianzong would not allow it, because he was also afraid that Wan Zhen'er would cry to him.

"Is everything all right at home?" The two were silent for a long time, and then they said this in unison.

Wantong gave a rare smile: "Everything is fine at home, my son's family has already moved into my mansion."

Wu Youwei was even happier: "Yeah.

Isn't this what we said a long time ago?

But Wu Youwei also said: "My place is also good. Unexpectedly, when the Crown Prince was ill, someone would search my mansion and Mo Ling Villa."

"I know, elder brother and they wrote another letter to me in code words." Wan Tongdao: "Elder brother, they didn't stop it on purpose, just to make the Bai family arrogant and domineering. This is what the emperor can't tolerate the most, relatives, And the least arrogant and domineering.

Wanxi's purpose is very simple, to let Emperor Xianzong know how arrogant the Bai family has become.

Unexpectedly, the crown prince actually died of an illness.

The Wan family felt uncomfortable because the child was innocent after all, but the Bai family's subsequent treatment also made the Wan family applaud.

Wu Youwei turned over and rolled into Wantong's arms: "I know, they also mentioned this in their letters, so just search, it will happen sooner or later.

When he produced those things by himself, he knew that in this feudal society without human rights, people would talk about things that were out of line, but he was more than out of line?It is possible to go abroad.

The emperor doesn't want to search, but the empress dowager can't stand it!

It is understandable and understandable for the old lady to want to save her grandson, but she failed to save the child in the end...

Wantong patted him: "Aren't you afraid of the heat?"

Wu Youwei choked, didn't he, the two of them hugged each other, it's so hot in this hot day!

Quickly rolled out of Wantong's arms again, and went to the other side of the bed. The feeling of the coolness of the mat came from the skin, and Wu Youwei heaved a sigh of relief: "This matter is over, it's over."

Bai family, it's not that Emperor Xianzong doesn't want to deal with it, it's just that an emperor has to see the big picture, look at the present?Those people who used to be restless and unable to move were immediately uprooted, let alone a family with a shallow foundation like the Bai family, what about the elders of the three dynasties?Haven't been dealt with yet?Emperor Xianzong is now in power.

He calculated the time. At this time in history, there already existed the "Paper Paste Sange Lao" and "Clay Sculpture Six Masters".

Emperor Xianzong had only tolerated it a few years ago in his life, and later made publicity, and the concubine Wan Gui, who was stunned to be a favorite, ran amok in the palace, wasn't it because he was in control of the power?Think about Emperor Hongzhi again. Although he has a good reputation and a clean harem, his ability to raise children is really not good.

'It's not easy to be an emperor! "Wantong also sighed: "It is very difficult to think about the emperor back then.

Others don't know, Wan Zhen'er knows best, and usually entrusts their brothers a lot, and must not fail the emperor's entrustment.

Emperor Xianzong actually had very few cronies, and there were only a few he could really trust. It was not until he was restored to the crown prince that the East Palace began to recruit officials.

It was not until he ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor that he began to cultivate loyal subordinates.

Emperor Yingzong was a person who didn't rub the sand in his eyes. When he was in power, the prince could only be a "prince".

In the early morning of the next day, after breakfast, Wantong took Liu Ju and others, and started to march towards Wusong Camp. Wusong Camp occupied an island by itself. It was very big, just at the entrance. I don’t know what it was called. , now it is called "Ying Island" because the barracks of the army are stationed there.

In fact, there is also a shipyard inside.

It's just that outsiders don't know it, it's a military secret.

There are farmlands on the island, where poultry and livestock can be raised, and the craftsmen’s families are placed there, with housing, field division, and various living facilities. If you want to leave the island, you need to apply for it and arrange to go out together. Of course, They are accompanied throughout the whole process, because the things they produce are very important, and there must be no leakage of secrets.

This was arranged by Wu Youwei to remind Wantong, and Wantong did it as a matter of necessity. As a result, those craftsmen didn't know what life they had lived in the past, and now they suddenly came here. At first, they were terrified and didn't know the way forward, but later they were grateful No, it took root here very quickly, and with Wantong's sufficient funds, Wu Youwei designed a reasonable bonus system. Every time they made a breakthrough, they would get a lot of money. In the past, the students of Chinese characters used to set up a small school there to teach the children of artisans to read, read, and count. These students were taught by Wu Youwei over the years, and they also learned a lot, not only Chinese and mathematics, And geometry, chemistry, etc.

This will further develop the inspiration of artisans who are already experimenting with steam engines and ships made of steel...

Wu Youwei continued to attract investment.

Although his requirements were harsh, the harsher they were, the more flocking they were.

How did the Great Coastal Victory come about?Who doesn't know who lives on the coast?In addition to Songjiang Mansion, people from Jiangsu and Zhejiang even moved here.

The Governor of Songjiang Mansion has not been found yet, these matters are temporarily suppressed, and the guarding eunuch Li Yi is temporarily regent.

Li Yi had a good relationship with Zhang Shen, so he turned a blind eye to things like Shanghai County.

Wu Youwei made drastic concessions, and Shanghai County became prosperous in a short period of time.

They have two ports, a military port and a civilian port, and they have powerful force to maintain law and order and deter Xiaoxiao. In addition, Wu Youwei has really managed Shanghai County very well. When people come to Shanghai County, they will look down on other places. .

Wu Youwei sold all the remaining houses within one month and made a huge profit!

But this time he divided the money into four parts.

One was given to Wantong, and the other was given to Liu Ju to keep Zhenwei Camp and Fenwu Camp.

The other one was given to the newly built Wusong camp, and the navy also spent money like water!

The last one was given to the shipyard. After all, it costs money to research things.

After spending the money, Wu Youwei felt that his pocket was empty again.

At the same time, the person in charge of immigration came up: "Sir, there are still people who want to come here, but there is no place to settle them.

"Really?" Wu Youwei touched his chin: "Then let's expand Shanghai County!"

The man's eyes widened: "Expansion?"

Didn't they just expand in the first place?

Now.... still need to expand?

"Yes, expansion!" Wu Youwei smiled and rolled his eyes: "Real estate is really a profitable business!"

Therefore, Shanghai County announced to recruit workers again, the wages are high, the treatment is good, and the house is still built.

Wu Youwei redesigned the new urban area of ​​Shanghai County. Since then, Shanghai County itself has been called the "old urban area" and the outer area has been called the "new urban area".

It cannot be called the "inner city". Only the high-end residential area around the Imperial Palace in Beijing can be called the "inner city".

At the same time, Wu Youwei generously expanded the four corners of the new urban area to connect with four natural villages!

It turns out that there is still a long distance. If the expanded city is close to the natural village, it will occupy the cultivated land, but who made Shanghai County too desolate and barren, and the cultivated land is far away. The village mainly relies on fishing at sea. Cultivating land requires animal power. If there is no animal power, manpower is needed. Fishing also depends on manpower. It’s all the same. Although the big guy can maintain the cultivated land, it is not the main source of income for the family.

Even if a small amount of cultivated land was occupied, Wu Youwei would compensate the high price of ten taels of silver for three mu of cultivated land with one mu of cultivated land, in exchange for the right to use the cultivated land with the common people.

The new work in Shanghai County is in full swing. Wu Youwei's big spending this time is a bit more restrictive than before, but now he is more free.

A large number of people flooded into Shanghai County, which naturally brought about some ills. Some were cheated, some were petty theft, and Wu Youwei was not a vegetarian, so the county government's arresters picked many people to fill the arresting team. , but those who were caught were sent to "reform through labor", and they did the most work without wages every day.

In this way, everything was progressing slowly. Until August, the outline of the new city of Shanghai County had come out. At the same time, the work on Vantone's side was progressing rapidly.

But there was a dispute between the DPRK and China.

It was all because Li Hao, who belonged to Annan, entered Champa and occupied Champa.

Champa is also a vassal state of Ming Dynasty, and the prince of Champa has come to Ming Dynasty for help.

What should Daming do?

After three months of quarreling between the court and the court, they finally came to a conclusion, that is, courtesy first and soldiers later.

Emperor Fu decreed l Zong's self-identity of the ten countries, their two families, Heping, Li Hao of Annan, stop this person from going to the city towel, so why did he beat him?

Ding, it's time for a small question, Daming has a great victory!

Bingwei may not work in the north, but it is very useful in the south.

In addition, Luo Lun's memorial also stated that the rice seeds of double-cropping rice and triple-cropping rice all come from Champa, and they are variants of Champa rice.

If Annan took down such a place casually, how could Daming not make a fuss?

At the same time as the imperial decree was issued, Wantong and Liu Ju also received a military order, asking them to prepare the navy and test the combat effectiveness of the navy. Since Annan can take down Champa, why can't Daming not?

Wantong discussed with Liu Ju, planning to bring the water army and Zhenwei camp, Fenwu camp to stay first, after all, just came here, not very familiar with water warfare, unlike Zhenwei camp, which has been at the seaside for more than a year, all I don't know how many times I have soaked in sea water.

The recruitment of the navy is also stepping up.

In recent years, because of the frontier army's garrisoning the fields, there are already quite a few soldiers in the family.

Junyu are the children of military households who were not selected as soldiers. They can only farm and farm at home. They have nowhere to display their skills and military status.

In addition, the Wusong Battalion also achieved brilliant results, and the recruiting of the sailors was very smooth. Zhang Shen had the money given by Shanghai County, and spent it on the sailors without hesitation.

The navy of the Ming Dynasty finally has some shadows of the Longjiang Navy back then...
