Back to Ming Dynasty with Industrial Revolution System

Chapter 57
Victory is temporarily moored at the newly named Dalian Port.However, Dalian Port at this time is still only a small fishing village, and the wharf built by the system is relatively simple, and manpower and stones need to be transferred to rebuild the wharf and expand the size of the wharf.In addition to the reconstruction of the wharf, the shipyard also needs to be improved to accommodate the keel of the 28-gun sailboat and build several more production lines.

Chu Yun arranged for the crew of the Victory to live on board, while the craftsmen at the dock lived in small villages.Fortunately, this is the end of the cold winter and the temperature has risen, otherwise many people might have frozen to death at night.

"Master Chu, these two 300 people are as many as our Qingniwa people. It may be difficult for our small fishing village to squeeze out." Seeing that Chu Yun resettled so many Westerners in one go, the village chief of Qingniwa When he arrived at the small fishing village, his face was a bit ugly, "These blond and blue-eyed aliens look different from us, will they bring bad luck to us in Qingniwa?"

"Old man, they won't bring you bad luck, on the contrary, your Qingniwa luck is here!" Chu Yun said.In future generations, the villagers in Qingniwa will be relocated households, and they can get rich overnight!
"Really?" the village head asked suspiciously.

"Someone will come to claim land from you later, you have to be mentally prepared." Chu Yun said, "Also, your place will not be called Qingniwa in the future, but Dalian Port."

"Land expropriation? Lord Chu, what do you call this a good thing? We have lived in Qingniwa for generations, so it is a good thing to take our land?" the village chief asked urgently.

"If the red brick and tile houses in Jinzhou City were exchanged for your broken thatched huts, how would each household arrange work and compensate hundreds of taels of silver?" Chu Yun said.

"This..." The village chief was taken aback when he heard it, "If this is true, I will discuss with the patriarchs about moving to Jinzhou City."

After Chu Yun settled the crew and craftsmen, he returned to Jinzhou with the guard squadron and several main officers of the Victory.It will take a year or two for Qingniwa to develop into a real Dalian Port. Chu Yun needs to return to Jinzhou City to dispatch people and resources to build Dalian Port.The construction of Dalian Port itself is also a good thing, which can provide a large number of employment opportunities and promote the development of Jinzhouwei.

"Is Jinzhou City as prosperous as London City?" On the way back, Navy Captain Ella, riding a horse and accompanying Chu Yun and Nelson, asked curiously.

"Where is the city of London in the West?" Yu Cheng, who was at the side, asked incomprehensibly.

"The city of London is thousands of miles away in Great Britain. It takes several months to arrive from our Golden State City. Although our Golden State City is still far behind London City, the development potential here is unlimited, and There are many characteristic buildings with a long history." Chu Yun said.

"I have been to the Mediterranean to fight with the United Fleet and sail in the Americas, but I have never been to the East. It is a great honor to be lucky enough to come to the great ancient country of the East this time," Nelson said.

Fuck, if you, the commander of the Royal Navy of Great Britain, really came to our Great Heavenly Dynasty in your era, then it would be a big deal.Chu Yun thought to himself.

After entering Jinzhou City, Nelson, Ella and other crew members of the Victory looked around more curiously.The distinctive red brick and green tile buildings of the Ming Dynasty are very different from Western buildings.And the people of the Ming Dynasty who came and went on the road were also curiously watching the curious Westerners.Although there were many Westerners summoned by Chu Yun in Jinzhou City, this was the first time they had seen Westerners wearing the uniform of the British Navy, so that Aila and the others were a little embarrassed.

In Jinzhou City, Chen Ting had returned here waiting for Chu Yun at some point.As soon as Chu Yun entered the city, Chen Ting hurriedly brought people to pick him up.

"My lord, you are finally willing to come back from the wasteland where no birds lay eggs in Qingniwa. If it is a day and a half later, I will send someone to find you and come back!" Chen Ting said anxiously.

Chu Yun asked suspiciously: "Old Chen, you are usually quite stable and reliable in your work. I should be fine if I leave for a few days, right? Why are you in such a hurry today?"

"My lord, you don't know, the court's reward has come down!" Chen Ting said excitedly, "You are now the deputy general of Dongjiang Town!"

The deputy general of Dongjiang Town?Chu Yun thought for a while, and it turned out that he had inadvertently become the general with the highest rank in southern Liaoning except Mao Wenlong and Li Jinguang.Although in fact Chu Yun's power is stronger than that of Mao Wenlong and Li Jinguang combined, he is a veritable ruler of southern Liaoning.

"Congratulations, my lord, for being promoted to deputy commander!" Chu Yun's cronies all congratulated him.

"It's a good thing, but you don't have to be in such a hurry, right?" Chu Yun asked.

"Your Excellency, I don't know. In addition to the deputy chief soldier, the imperial court also sent Liu Yingkun, the eunuch of Liao, to our Liao army to serve as the supervisor!" Chen Ting said with a serious face, "The supervisor will come to our Jinzhou City next month. , and it is estimated that Dongchang will also send people over."

After Chu Yun heard this, his face changed slightly.I was still far away from the imperial court, but I didn't expect the power of the eunuchs to start to infiltrate.Dongchang, that is the intelligence department in the hands of Wei Zhongxian. I don't know how many officials who opposed the eunuch were killed.The arrival of the people from the Supervisory Army and Dongchang meant that the imperial court began to guard against itself when rewarding itself, for fear that the Liao Army would become an independent force.

Chen Tingjiu had been in the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty, so he naturally knew the intention of the court and the horror of Dongchang, so he was anxious to inform Chu Yun.After all, it was Chu Yun who brought peace to southern Liaoning.What if the forces of the Fu Liao Army were disintegrated because of their involvement in the struggle between Donglin and the eunuchs?This kind of thing is not uncommon in southern and eastern Liaoning, such as Yuan Keli, the governor of Denglai a few years ago.

"Hold on, don't panic. Since the imperial court has sent overseers, we'll treat them well. But, the overseers don't know anything about our marching and fighting. Just let them stay obediently." For Daming Officials at all levels are in awe of eunuchs, but Chu Yun doesn't care about rank and official position, he only cares about the army and territory in his hands.As long as someone dared to touch his territory, even if the emperor came, Chu Yun would find a way to kill him.

"Yes, yes, it's good to entertain them, and we can't let them meddle in our affairs. However, people who are nine thousand years old should not be underestimated, especially Dongchang..." Chen Ting said.

"Sir, what is a eunuch?" Ella blinked curiously.

"Uh...you don't need to know this Miss Ella..." Chu Yun sweated profusely.
