Forty-eight years of Qianlong

There are two things.Cao Peng saw the telegram sent by Zhao Xin early in the morning, and when he was eating breakfast, he didn't catch a mouthful of porridge and sprayed it out.Seeing this, Lin Sanyue, the newly married little wife, hurriedly helped with the maid.

"Eat slowly, what's wrong?"

"This 'Prince Zhao' has great ambitions! After mixing Europe and Southeast Asia, I think he is even more tossed than the British!"

Lin Sanyue didn't understand her husband's nonsense, and sat on the steps under the porch teasing the kitten.After the marriage, her jet-black braid disappeared and was replaced by a woman's pan head.At first, she became the most common jia bun (sound like the enemy) for the ladies of the Li Chao Dynasty, but Cao Peng thought it was ugly, so she asked Shen Xuan for advice, and changed it to the "??

At this time, the sunlight outside the house was pouring down, and March's hair against the background was even more black and swarthy, and the white neck glowed a strange dazzling color in the sunlight, which made Cao Peng look a little crazy.

Sanyue felt that the sound of snoring and eating porridge suddenly stopped behind him. When he turned around and saw Cao Peng's appearance, he couldn't help showing a hint of shyness and gave him a blank look.

oops!Cao Peng thinks such a small day is really beautiful!
Life has to be lived, and business has to be done.After eating the last piece of pickled radish on the plate, he dawdled for a while, then got up and changed his clothes, and took two of his subordinates out of the house to talk to Shibata Juezang.

Shibata Kakuzang had been promoted from the Sendai Domain's "memori", that is, the secret probe, to the pursuit of this domain two years ago, and was specially responsible for the docking and Beihai Town related affairs.The export of labor, the purchase of arms, the replenishment of the Aoba Battalion, etc. were all assigned to his name.Of course, the matter of borrowing money from Beihai Town is also his responsibility.

Seeing Cao Peng, Shibatian Juezang changed his poker face that had not changed for thousands of years, showed a smile, got up and cupped his hands, and said in slightly stiff Mandarin, "Brother Linghan is here?"

That's right, Cao Peng has characters now.Before he left Beihai Town, he asked Duan Yucai to give him a word.Otherwise, the thought of being called "Cao Sang" made him feel uncomfortable.

Duan Yucai first asked about his birthdate, and then asked about his place of origin. Of course, Cao Peng did not dare to say that he was born in the [-]s, so he reported the year according to the date of the [-]th century. Naturally, she is the hometown of Cao Wenzhen in Shexian County, Anhui Province.Duan Yucai thought for a while, and then wrote down the three options of "Haiqiu, Yizhi, Linghan" on the paper. Cao Peng immediately fell in love with the last one.

Cao Peng smiled and bowed his hands to Chaitian Juicang, and said, "Chaitian-sang, I am entrusted by the palace of the king of Zhao, and I came to you today to discuss a major matter."

As soon as he heard that Zhao Wangdian was in charge, Shibata Juezang immediately screened his left and right sides, knelt down and sat up straight, posing as if he was being ordered.Cao Peng immediately sat down cross-legged and whispered in the ear of the other party for a moment.

After listening to Shibata Juezang, he asked with a surprised look on his face, "Brother Ling Han, what's wrong with this domain that makes Zhao Wangdian dissatisfied?"

This fellow is obviously more than ten years older than Cao Peng, but every one of them called "Brother Ling Han" is called a natural.

Cao Peng shook his head in surprise and said, "Why did Shibatian-sang say this?"

Shibata Juezang said: "This domain and Beihai Town are in the same spirit, let alone [-], even [-] soldiers can come together, why go to Edo?"

Cao Peng thought about it too. Today, the Sendai domain alone has a population of nearly 70 people, not to mention the small 60 people in Southern Kyushu.In addition, Zhao Xin gave guns and guns to the army this time, if Sendai clan takes it alone, it is estimated that he can earn a fortune.

It is said that the Sendai Fan has borrowed more than 700 million taels of debt from Beihai Town in the past few years. He also wanted to seek Guan Bai's position.Regardless of the fact that the patriarch Yi Daqicun is only 17 this year, he has sent a few sums of money to the imperial court in Kyoto, and now he is the fourth lieutenant general of the guards.In history, Yidaqi Village was nothing more than a major general of the four guards until his death.

The problem is that the money borrowed from the businessman can be reneged, and the Sendai Fan will not dare to renege on the money borrowed from Beihai Town.However, only relying on the output of Sendai Fan and Southern Kyushu, 700 million taels would not be enough in 100 years.Now that there is a sudden opportunity to make war fortune, how can Shibata Kakzo split up with the Tokugawa shogunate?

Sure enough, the next day, in the council room of Ninomaru, Aoba Castle, everyone including the head of the family, Idazaki Village, agreed with Shibata Juezang's approach.Isn't it just [-] soldiers, Sendai Domain is all-inclusive!Don't leave any soup dregs for the Tokugawa family!
It is said that the relationship between the island country and the Dutch in the past 200 years has been good, and many Dutch scholars have also developed. They have long learned from the books of the Dutch that the land in Southeast Asia can be cultivated three times a year.

In the past, there was no chance, and neither the Spaniards nor the Dutch would be able to turn their heads; but now it is different. With the support of the Northern Navy's fleet, what kind of people are there? If you can get a piece of land there and send people to reclaim it, It is bound to greatly alleviate the situation of insufficient grain production, and there will be no need to import wheat from Beihai Town in the future, which can save a lot of money.

When Cao Peng learned from Shibata Juezang that the Sendai domain wanted a piece of land, he sent a telegram to Bacheng, and mentioned Sendai's request for all the troops.

However, because Zhao Xin went back to toss and buy a boat, he didn't call Cao Peng until five days later. As long as Kalimantan Island was captured, the Northern Navy would assist Sendai to acquire the long and narrow Palawan Island in the northeast.But there is one point. In the middle of the island, the North Navy will take a piece away as a transit point to the Nansha Islands in the future.

Zhao Xin chose this island because although it is 425 kilometers long from north to south, it is only 40 kilometers wide from east to west, and has no strategic depth at all.If there is really any moth, the Northern Navy only needs to attack from both sides, and it can be easily penetrated.

After Shibata Juezang learned the news from Cao Peng, he was overjoyed, and immediately reported to the head of the family, Ida Qi Village and the elder Ishikawa Village.The young Yidaqi Village was also quite excited about this. This was a new frontier, so what was there to be afraid of? It was enough to have a big ship from Beihai Town to help transport people.

In the future, no matter how many sons there are, there is no need to worry about losing land, and there is no need to become a monk!

As for the source of the first batch of troops, for the sake of confidentiality, Ishikawa Village decided to directly allocate the labor from the Sendai domain who built the railway in Beihai Township, and then dispatch and supplement it later.Since Beihai Town imported railway construction workers from the island country, the Sendai Domain Alliance and the shogunate Beihai pursued each other. The two sides were hundreds of miles away and could never see each other.

Three days later, on behalf of Beihai Town and Idaqi Village, Cao Peng signed an agreement on related matters in a secret room in Ninomaru, Aoba City.

The two parties agreed that no later than the end of January 1793, that is, December 1th of the fifth year of Kanzheng, the Sendai Domain must transfer the first batch of 5000 healthy soldiers to Beihai Town for training, and provide no less than Two hundred vassals as reserve officers; the second batch of 1793 people should be delivered no later than the end of April 4—that is, March 5000th in the sixth year of Kanzheng; the third batch of 6 people should be delivered no later than the end of June—that is, Kanzheng Six years on May [-]th.

Beihai Town will train all soldiers and feudal lords according to the standards of Aoba Camp, and provide all equipment including military uniforms and weapons and ammunition.After these troops return home after completing their tasks, all weapons and equipment will be donated to Sendai Domain.

During the service period of all officers and soldiers, Beihai Town will pay monthly allowances according to the standard of 10~100 Beihai Yuan.The relevant death and injury compensation standards are the same as those of the officers and soldiers of the same level of the North Navy.In order to control and allow the families of officers and soldiers to get the money on time, Ishikawa Village also added a special clause to the agreement. All allowances will be deposited into the savings account of Ishinomaki Port Beihai Silver, and cannot be directly distributed to individuals.

At the same time that Cao Peng's affairs were completed, the fishing boat and several small boats that Zhao Xin bought also completed the delivery procedures.What he got this time is a medium-sized tuna purse seine fishing boat that has just been launched for a year. Because it wants to hunt down tuna schools, the main engine power is as high as 3000kW, and the speed can reach 14~17 knots.The length of the ship is 60 meters and the gross tonnage is 1000 tons.

The most special thing about this ship is that there is a thick main mast at the rear of the deckhouse, and there is a fish lookout at the top, which is just used to observe the surrounding situation.Because its speed is unmatched in this time and space except Beihai Town, there is no 75mm gun on board.

The only regret is that Zhao Xin spent a third of the money because of the rush to buy.However, Prince Zhao is in a hurry almost every time he buys a boat, and he is used to being a fool.
After delaying in Bacheng for so long, several French people are already a little annoying.In the three cities of Tiananmen Square, there are only so many places to go, and the church in Bacheng has been converted into a hospital, and there is no place for worship.The problem is that there is no church in Beihai Town. There are only two priests, and they are still Orthodox, which is incompatible with Catholicism.Now I think it's too late to ask for one from Macau, let's talk about it next year.

The personnel of the crocodile team have been selected, and the marines and the security team are half and half.After the personnel are in place, they will shoot close-range moving targets at the shooting range every day.All the team members were told that they could only hit the head of the crocodile, never the body. The crocodile skin was a good thing.

To hunt a crocodile is not to wait for the crocodile to come ashore and give a shot at a distance of several dozen meters, but to use an iron hook to bait it in the river.Found that the crocodile was hooked, drove the boat over, pulled the rope to lift the crocodile's head, and then shot to kill.

The manpower of the leather workshop was asked by the court to find it from local immigrants, and there were only a few dozen people.Traditional leather making in China generally uses vegetable tanning or oil tanning, each with its own advantages and disadvantages.The vegetable method is to soak in tannin solution by boiling the bark; oil tanning is generally soaked in fish oil solution, which is commonly known as oil chamois.Bacheng is close to the sea, and there is no shortage of fish oil.

In addition, tanning leather also requires quicklime and a lot of sea salt.Limestone can be mined in southern Sumatra, and the reserves are extremely rich; in addition, a salt drying field must be built.

The immigrants who came to Bacheng have grown coffee in addition to sugar cane, and only a few people have cultivated the land.Now, with a thought from Zhao Xin, everyone is busy from top to bottom.To know that lime mining from Sumatra alone requires a dedicated fleet and a group of miners to be recruited.

Zhao Xin checked the information and found that there are rich limestone and iron ore reserves in the southern part of West Java. He felt that the cement industry could be developed in Bacheng in the future, and at least bridge construction, road construction and port construction were all needed.But in order to get this done, you have to deal with the Dutch and the surrounding Sultanate to the south.

Because of the time, a group of French people spent a hot Christmas in Bacheng.Zhao Xin brought two Christmas trees from another time and space, and filled them with snowflakes, bells, puppets and tree top stars, which surprised the "Lashen" and Louise.In addition to arranging a delicious meal, he also bought a lot of gifts, took great pains to remove the logo, found colored paper to wrap it, and placed it at the door of every house on Christmas morning.

In order to invite a few intellectuals for Beihai Town, is it easy!
