Chapter 449
Some people still don’t believe the Mayan kingdom that Wang Hua said, and think it’s Wang Hua’s excuse. Since he can conjure a dock in Yizhou out of thin air and a city of 10,000+ people in Qinzhou out of thin air, can’t he? Conjure an ironworks somewhere?
This is Wang Hua's profit, but knowing that Wang Hua is subsidizing food, he would not blame Wang Hua. Otherwise, where would he get the money?It's not good to just fool the court, but now there are a few ministers who are not fooling the court, and even Comrade Da Song is getting along, let alone others?

There is no way, firstly, no one is smart, and secondly, no one is selfless. Money flows like a torrent, and then flows into the hands of the common people like a torrent.Putting it in the government, instead of Wang Hua's operation, it will benefit the common people.I'm afraid I don't have the ability to operate profitably.

Those who see through have no advice, or are unable to offer advice.

Wang Hua's profiteering industry is not what Wang Hua thought.Webster also had concerns. Generally speaking, as long as the country is good and the people are good, Wang Hua doesn't seem to care much about who is in power, and he doesn't feel hostile towards himself.How to grab this food?
But she couldn't stand the instigation of her natal family, saying all day long how much money Wang Hua got in the food war and the money war, it would never be used up in a lifetime.The Wang family in Taiyuan has received so many benefits, but the wife still "reserved" Princess Anle, so she should give some points to the Wei family.

So tentatively asked for the shipyard.Wang Hua really gave it in a fit of anger, but the Wei family didn't know that Wang Hua was already angry.Fireworks are also coming out, needless to say the profit will definitely exceed that of firecrackers, and all of this is exactly what is formulated on that explosive.So they asked for explosives, and they also mobilized Zong Chuke as a lobbyist.

When it came to the end, even Li Xian was shaken, this time the imperial envoy came, it was still a test.

Moreover, the opinions of the Wei family are also different. Some are greedy. The main reason is that the Wang family in Taiyuan received too much benefit, and they themselves did not participate in the hoarding of food. Why did Wang Hua not share any benefits?Some of you are still sober, you ask Wang Hua for favors, what does Wang Hua owe our Wei family?Even when the lacquer carving was made at the beginning, it was only used as a craftsman with expensive wages.In turn, in order to repay this pitiful benefit, Wang Hua gave the Wei family a lot in return.The heart must have the meaning of contentment.

But the voices of this group of people were very small, mainly because Webster became the queen, and Li Xian listened to Webster's arrangements for everything in the world.Some members of the Wei family got carried away with complacency.Coupled with the fact that over the past year, it has been calculated in millions of dollars, is that family not envious?

Moreover, Wang Hua of the shipyard agreed smoothly, which encouraged their courage.

But I don't know that Wang Hua's bottom line has been violated.

First, on the island, the Tang Dynasty sent officials and soldiers, as well as a group of craftsmen and workshop owners. As for who owns these workshops, everyone knows well.On the contrary, officials deliberately curry favor with them.

Wang Hua was really not in trouble.Leaving nearly a thousand half-baked slaves behind, even Li Hong felt heartbroken.There are also more than a dozen craftsmen who also teach them the techniques of shipbuilding.I took them to visit some local chiefs, and then waited until the first ship was launched before leaving Ryukyu Island.

In fact, apart from slaves, Wang Hua also left behind a large amount of property, including some shipbuilding tools, which cannot be taken away together, which will make people doubt his sincerity.There are also a large number of mature fields that have been reclaimed, and the local people have left good relationships.

But after this group of people, it’s not the same thing. When Wang Hua’s subordinates came to develop, Wang Hua repeatedly told them to respect the local folk customs and people, even if you saw them all having sex together as the history books said. , and are not allowed to ridicule.Most of them are from poor people and grassroots, so this policy is well implemented.

But what kind of family is the Wei family? Look around in Guanzhong.

How could it be possible to be on an equal footing with these indigenous people.I didn't notice it at first, but when the director got it, I gradually felt uncomfortable in my heart.And because of the development of Wang Hua, the nearby huge timber was felled back and forth. If you need timber, it is not difficult. You can go up the river, which is later known as the Tamsui River, and can extend to the central mountainous area.Now they are all in the original state, how many trees can be cut down?Cut the wood and float it down the river to get local materials.

But this is based on a good relationship with the aborigines.Now, because of the arrogance of the Wei family and the powerful army behind them, they did not pay attention to the aborigines, and even took the initiative to arrest the aborigines.It happened that the cotton fields in the Central Plains lacked labor.

As a result, conflicts began to arise, and conflicts intensified.In the end, it was so serious that the dock was unable to start work, and the slaves of the Japanese country began to riot.

Things got serious, so I asked Wang Hua.Wang Hua wrote unceremoniously, saying, isn't someone salivating?Now I let it out for free, and guarantee that they will raise their children and grandchildren?It's a joke.

In fact, Li Xian also saw the signs at this time, and knew the source of the matter. It was not for the country, but he was forcing Wang Hua. Could it be that he was forcing Wang Hua for the sake of the Wei family?Wang Hua would not agree to food that was not taken from Wang Hua's mouth.Straightforwardly, I don't care.Bring back the ministers and the army, not even Yizhou.Let this matter go.

However, this is not the end. The porcelain has been transferred to the new porcelain, and the share of Baolinzhai has gradually decreased.

At the same time, Qinzhou new shipyard started construction.

After Wang Hua replied to the letter, he immediately sent someone to call the eighteen families over to discuss the matter. Anyway, he used the excuse of compensating for the sale of grain, and he was not afraid of gossip.Join forces to build a dock.The main site is in Qinzhou, and there is also a lot of wood available nearby, and there are some rivers that can drift wood down from the upper reaches.Even other places can bring wood from the sea.The cost is not very high.

In Yongzhou, a dock for river boats was built. After the river boats were built, they went down the Xiangjiang River to the Yangtze River and were transported to various places.Sea ships are easier to handle. Although Qinzhou is not half the size of Guangzhou, many foreign businessmen have come here.Compared with the current two-masted ships, both Dashi and the ships of the countries in the South China Sea are very backward.I have long been coveting these ships.However, Wang Hua was also short of ships at that time, and only sold a batch of eliminated ships.They were all handed over to the Tang people.

Some of these merchants have been in business for many years and have money in their hands, and they still place orders with gold.

Wang Hua's actions in a fit of anger brought life to Qinzhou.In this huge shipyard, orders for at least several months will last for several years.The artisans alone recruited 5000 people, not to mention the related industries they brought.

As a result, Wang Hua saw that the houses were basically sold out, so he auctioned off the thousands of acres of land in advance to build new houses.At this time, food prices have stabilized and there are still households who escaped. No one knows how many households escaped in the Tang Dynasty. Some predicted 500 million people, and some predicted 1000 million people.However, I dare not speak out in court for the latter statement.

Wang Hua served as the servant of the transfer department, and also came out of the countryside. How many escaped households, there must be more than 500 million, like Qingshangou, half of them are escaped households.Of course, it cannot be calculated according to the proportion of Qingshangou. More than 500 million people, 1000 million people may be insufficient.It's just because the south of the Five Ridges is far away, and the batch of fleeing households I have absorbed are not many. If they are placed in Luoyang, Chang'an and other places, wait and accept them.There could be an influx of millions of fleeing households.

Therefore, there are still fleeing households coming one after another. Wang Hua doesn't know how many there are. Most of them are absorbed by other states and counties that lack people.Qinzhou only arranged for 2 people, but it also made Qinzhou's population finally squeezed into the ranks of 20.Putting it in the Central Plains is also an upstate with a large population.

So in the end the court also wondered, if Wang Hua stayed in Qinzhou for five years, would the population of Qinzhou be larger than that of Luoyang?

This is impossible, Qinzhou is limited by the land, and the current population is basically saturated. Wang Hua even sent someone to supervise to prevent the influx of foreign population again.

Wang Hua not only released part of the shipbuilding technology and shared it with [-] families, but even broke the explosives for the imperial court to mine copper mines.Now that the mine is open, there is no need for explosives, and I have no money to subsidize it.That's right, this is a matter for the imperial court, why do you always ask a courtier to subsidize it?
For Wang Hua to open shipbuilding technology, the imperial court is even more helpless. If explosives technology is released, it may cause controversy. As for the copper mine and salt industry, only the imperial court can manage it.But the shipbuilding technology, the court can not interfere.

The only thing is to impeach Wang Hua's open business, and even deprive Wang Hua of all his official positions.But that's just overrunning, and property cannot be confiscated.

But what about the aftermath of the deprivation?

Wang Hua stayed at home in Luoyang for a few months, and did not see him wanting to be an official.The imperial court gave him an official promotion, but he refused again and again.Wang Hua cannot be intimidated by this.In turn, the court will face the consequences of losing Wang Hua.

At the beginning of recovering Yizhou, many ministers really became interested in opening up territories.Only a few people think of the joint in the middle.More people followed suit, and Wang Hua didn't make any excuses.

Even with dynamite, many ministers were not aware of its power. They really thought that throwing it at the opponent's army would immediately end the battle, just like the atomic bomb later on.

It wasn't until Wang Hua returned to the court that everyone suddenly realized.

It turns out that there is something else wrong here.

There are still people who want to flatter, but dare to make a sound?Where to get so much food, don't look at the price of food going down, once it is reported that they have lost the support of batches of food behind Wang Hua, just watch the price of food rise again.

Even if there is a bumper harvest in the future, twenty yuan is not expensive, and it can be adjusted in the granary.And after this lesson, everyone also realized that there is a little less food in reserve.

These tens of millions of stones of grain cannot be lost at all, so they have to be transported back.Otherwise, even Li Xian was worried.

It's stable, let's see Wang Hua's backhand.

Something happened to Yizhou, and everyone knew that it might be the fault of the officials themselves, and Wang Hua didn't really help the court.It got out of control so quickly.But is Wang Hua worthy of assisting the court?Not to assist the imperial court, but to assist the Wei family shipyard to make a fortune.

If Wang Hua really does this, it will make everyone suspicious.He is not the person who likes to flatter, let the Wei family take property, but help the Wei family gain a foothold on Yizhou, is it possible?
Moreover, Wang Hua gave everyone the impression that he was a little narrow-minded.Treat him well and he will respect you.If you fight against him, even if you are the son of a family, you will take revenge.Just like Li Longji smashed his shop, Wang Hua didn't say anything, but came to make the emperor pay attention to the Habayashi Army.Li Dan and some of Princess Taiping's cronies were forced out.

Maybe this revenge is just the beginning.

Sure enough, he and Shiba started to build a dock.It was still the excuse that Wang Hua paid the price for the transfer of grain from eighteen companies.

It is possible that Wang Hua paid some price, otherwise, the Eighteen Family would not make a sound after suffering such a dull loss.Even the ministers of the eighteen families in the court did not say a word, so the fireworks may be one of the prices.But Porcelain deliberately attacked the Wei family.

This dock is to attack the Wei family and prevent the Wei family from taking over.

It's easy to say that Li Xian is the emperor of peace, but it's hard to say that he is the emperor of confusion.But he wasn't so confused that he couldn't distinguish between black and white. When he saw Wang Hua's replay, he realized it.Dare to feel that I was used as a banner by my wife's family.A little unhappy, the two wars made a lot of money for Wang Hua, but the big boss let his wife and daughter get it.There is a lot left, but if the three families share equally, how much can Wang Hua get?
The replay made it very clear that more than 200 million yuan was spent on the resettlement of refugees and the development of Qinzhou, as well as hundreds of thousands of subsidies for explosives, and an even larger amount of subsidies for grain.The money was not earned by Wang Hua for himself, but just changed hands, and the money earned by one side was softly paid to the court.Even if you still get a part of it, that's what you should do.If I were to stand in Wang Hua's position, I would not be happy either.

General Zong Chuke called over and said, "Zong Shangshu, Wang Hua agrees to hand over the explosive formula."

Before Zong Chuke could react, he replied, "Congratulations, Your Majesty."

"But you have to raise 5000 million stones of food for me. Wang Hua has no capital to raise. I'll just look at you."

Zong Chuke heard a buzzing in his head and asked me to raise 5000 million shi of grain, but even [-] shi of grain could not be raised.

After Li Xian finished speaking, he asked him to back down. His wife's family members could not vent their anger, but Zong Chuke could vent their anger, and it was very suspicious. Zong Chuke deliberately framed Wang Hua for his third brother.

It took Zong Chuke a long time to step out with his little feet, so he asked someone to inquire, and when he found out what was going on, he immediately asked Wei Shi to speak well for him.This is not a joke. If Wang Hua uses this as an excuse to send himself to Qinzhou for reform and become the third pig, his official career in this life will come to an end.

Wei Shi was a little unhappy when he heard it, but if he wanted to blame his family, he was a little greedy.I tried to persuade you at the beginning, but I didn't believe you.So someone wrote a letter to Wang Hua, with only one word on it: STOP!

Wang Hua also replied a letter, Banner!

The flag does not move, but the wind blows it.Even if the wind doesn't blow, the flag still calms down.

But has it stopped? In fact, the most fatal blow is still at sea.

Wei Meng is an outsider disciple of the Wei family, but he was born with a lot of strength, and later sailing changed his taste.Rather than talking about transactions, it is better to rob, robbing people and property, accounting for more than half of the transaction.It happened that Wei Meng came in handy, this time the three ships of the Wei family saw a large amount of ivory in a tribe in the Pyu country.

So the people in charge of the three ships of the Wei family sent people to deal with them.Most of them do not understand the language, and they hold some porcelain and cloth in their hands, and then pass them to the tribe, and take the ivory from the tribe with one hand.Made a few dumb words, meaning we exchange like this.This is how most transactions are done.

But the tribe immediately took the ivory, and the goods were not returned to them.

The person who made the deal had no choice but to retreat under the pressure of the primitive weapons in their hands.But with a glance, I saw that in this stockade, many people had ivory hanging on the walls.

Come back immediately, let Wei Meng bring fifty servants, fully armed, and disembark from the ship at night, trying to carry out a night raid on the village.

But this time it was different, when they were about to reach the village, suddenly countless ropes in the forest were pulled up, and almost half of the fifty servants tripped and fell to the ground.Then densely packed bamboo arrows shot out from the forest.Although it is a bamboo arrow, you can see the blue color on the arrow through the moonlight. This blue color is only a bad thing, not a good thing.This batch of attacks was not over yet, and another batch of spears came over.Although it is a primitive weapon, and I am wearing standard armor, but there are so many such weapons, it will kill people.

Seeing that something was wrong, Wei Meng immediately ran away.

Trembling and fleeing to the ship, it turned out that he was the only one returning.

After suffering this great loss, the Wei family refused to accept it, and summoned other ships from the nearby waters.This time, a hundred servants were sent, but after going down this time, it was like a stone sinking into the sea, and none of them came back.Not only these few seagoing ships, but most of the other ships have encountered such or such things. Without the armed protection of the servants, it is very dangerous to sail.

Especially because of the bad behavior of the Tang Dynasty in recent years, the indigenous people along the coast are very disgusted with the Tang Dynasty.

I returned to Guangzhou miserably, but I didn't expect that Wang Hua did it.

Wang Hua has no influence on land, and besides the two hundred families, he was also arranged in two places.Or they bought a large number of fields and gave them to the poor people and the families of the blood camp.But after sending them off, Wang Hua's family didn't show off their favor, so they cut off contact.

Compared with other big families, Wang Hua's family is almost nothing.If it wasn't for Wang Hua to support the sky with one hand, Wang Hua would not even be as good as a common landlord.

But after reaching the sea, it is the sky and the earth.

There is no need to do this, and the Wei family fleet may be wiped out directly.Anyway, it's hard to tell what's going on at sea.Moreover, the accident happened all over the South China Sea Islands or every continent, and Wang Hua didn't have the power to control the aborigines in such a large place and work for him.

What's more, I didn't see advanced weapons during the battle, they were all primitive weapons.People are also indigenous people, not a single person from the Tang Dynasty.

The members of the Wei family were depressed, but at this time the servants heard a piece of good news.On the southeast sea there is an indigenous country rich in copper, silver, spices and precious stones.They also took out a lot of goods for trading in Guangzhou, and gathered several ships to prepare for a bigger deal.

The members of the Wei family were tempted after hearing this, threatened and lured them, and obtained the nautical chart.So they summoned almost two-thirds of the ships in the family, a total of more than 60 large and small ships, with a manpower of more than 1000 people, and sailed to that country.

It was found after ten days.Sure enough, there were a lot of people, but they brought more people this time, and concentrated their strength together.The boat was parked swaggeringly, and one by one they went ashore with weapons.This time, however, it was a devastating blow.

What they ushered in was not primitive weapons. They also used iron arrows and iron bows, and they were all over the mountains and plains. I don't know how many aboriginals came here who were irritated.

Seeing something bad, the Wei family wanted to withdraw.But at this time, a sail was also raised on the sea. The boat was small, but the speed was very fast, and it had the upper hand. One by one, the aborigines with flexible bodies climbed onto their big boat.After a while, even the boats were occupied by these natives.

This time, the Wei family didn't get anything, only two boats came back.Only about [-] people came back.

Some people thought that Wang Hua deliberately retaliated against the arrangement.But no one believed it, because the scope was too wide, from the east of Tianzhu to the South China Sea Islands, and then to the Luzon Islands, covering almost the entire South China Sea. Not to mention Wang Hua, even the imperial court did not have the ability.

It can only be said that the Wei family was unlucky.

The Wei family lobbied Webster to let the court send troops to avenge them.

But this time Webster didn't agree.Just kidding, the imperial court does not have soldiers familiar with naval warfare, and it is still thousands of miles away in the South China Sea. You have more than 1000 people so easily, how many troops will the imperial court have to send?What about supplies at sea?What if you succeed, but what if you fail?
Even if Webster's own brother was killed on the island, the imperial court might not dare to launch troops easily.

In the end, the Wei family tossed and tossed and tossed, but got nothing. It was like fishing for the blue moon, but it made the world laugh, and even paid a lot of losses.
