It's night in Qianjia Village.
"Dad, there's a letter from eldest brother." In the largest house in the village, a man in his early thirties knocked on the door and entered. The room was brightly lit. The old village chief was lying on the bed. When he heard the movement, he opened his eyes. .
"What are you doing sneakily? This is not the outside!" the old village chief cursed, took the letter from his son, then stood up slowly and sat next to the oil lamp.
But after all, his old eyesight was too dim to see clearly, so he handed the letter to his son and said, "Read it, please keep your voice down!"
"Dad, everyone else is asleep!" Qian Henian said, then sat aside and read the contents of the letter to his father in a low voice.
The old village chief listened quietly, "Okay, great, your eldest brother has now completely hooked up with Zhang Zhou, and is also connected with the Japanese island country. Now he can attack when we advance, and we can defend when we retreat.
Songjiang Prefecture and Ningbo Prefecture are facing each other. If they can be defeated, your eldest brother will have a great achievement.
However, relying on those islands, the potential is too small after all. It would be better if your brother and the others could capture Ryukyu Island. "
"Dad, eldest brother has a strong army now, tens of thousands of people, is the potential still small?" Qian Henian said: "Why don't we go there too, why are we suffering this injustice here?"
"Confused!" the old village chief scolded: "Your eldest brother is with Zhang Zhou's people. He seems to be convinced, but in fact he wants to annex them.
If you can't annex it, then join them. When your eldest brother goes to Zhang Zhou in the future, he might also be able to be knighted.
However, Zhang Zhou was surrounded by Daye and Chen Han, so it was not easy to get there.
It is impossible for your eldest brother to abandon the career he has finally built, so he can only develop it outside.
Unless the cause is in turmoil, your eldest brother's situation will only become more and more difficult.
But if you capture Ryukyu, you will have potential. With the people in your brother's hands, you can advance and attack, and retreat and defend.
Whether it's Chen Han, Daye, or Zhang Zhou, they will definitely fawn over your eldest brother.
If you surrender in the future, your eldest brother can also have capital.
If you don't want to leave Ryukyu Island, I'm afraid you can still become the King of Ryukyu.
Isn't this refreshing? "
After listening to his father's words, Qian Henian's mind had already wandered, and he couldn't help but admire him: "Dad, you are really wily and resourceful."
The old village chief smiled and stroked his beard, "What does this mean? A cowherd boy can sit here, but a fisherman can't?
Your eldest brother has me to give him advice. As long as it develops slowly, it will definitely become a success.
If the opportunity comes together, we can send troops to capture Ningbo Prefecture and Songjiang Prefecture when the cause is in chaos.
There are many people in these two places and great potential. They can advance, attack or retreat, and defend without any worries.
I can't say, maybe I can be called a loner. "
"High, really high!" Qian Henian gave a thumbs up, "But dad, if we hate Deng Chushan today, they will definitely target us in the future. What should we do?"
The old village chief smiled coldly, "I just want to hate him. If the relocation goes smoothly and these people get benefits, then what's the point?
We just want to coerce these people and fight against the Yamen.
Tomorrow morning, you will quietly release the news, saying that the Yamen will target us and punish us, so that everyone should not go out to avoid having their homes taken away by the Yamen. "
"What if the people from the Yamen don't come?"
"So what?" the old village chief said with a smile: "We all have to live and eat. We are all hungry. Can we not be angry?
If the people from the Yamen really come by then, why not fight them to the death?
Once a quarrel breaks out, will Deng Chushan benefit from it? "
"Dad, you are so smart!" Qian Henian was so impressed that he said, "I will go and break the news early tomorrow morning."
The old village chief nodded and burned the letter.
No one knows that Qian Hegao, the big bandit out of Songjiang Mansion, is his son.
When he realized that his son had great ambitions, he instigated his son to go to sea. Some of the people who went to sea were even from his own village.
The old village chief was not worried at all that the villagers would report the news.
For him, this is an opportunity.
He blew out the oil lamp and lay quietly on the bed, but his heart was burning.
Early the next morning, Qian Henian quietly released the news.
Soon, the news spread all over the country. People in every fishing village were so angry that all the men in the family stopped going to the sea and stayed at home.
The most important thing is that someone discovered the government servant at the beach, which further confirmed the authenticity of the rumors.
When the old village chief received the news, he couldn't help but laugh, "God help me!"
However, the yamen servants who were squatting on guard did not see anyone. After asking around, they were all confused.
How did they know they were coming?
So he hurried back to report.
After Deng Chushan learned about it, he also looked unhappy and hurriedly asked people to withdraw.
The staff member said: "Sir, is there a mole?"
Deng Chushan frowned, "It's possible."
I gave the order the day before, and the next day these people huddled at home and didn't go out. Do you think there is no mole?
"Find some trustworthy people, and then guard Qianjia Village. Don't let others find out. Once you find someone going to the sea, arrest them directly..." Deng Chushan was also very angry. If he couldn't cure these people, he wouldn't be able to complete the imperial mission. .
Tidal flat rectification and planning are top priorities, which determine whether Songjiang Prefecture can become the second Suzhou in the future.
King Wu said that Songjiang's potential could even exceed that of Suzhou City in the future!
"Yes, sir!"
...
On the other side, Zhu Jun was walking around Songjiang Mansion with Li Xiangjun in disguise.
This woman's face was smeared black, and even her neck was smeared black.
I don’t know what method she used to cover up the fragrance on her body.
"Songjiang Mansion is quite lively." Li Xiangjun whispered: "Although it is not as rich as Suzhou, it is still a rare big city."
Zhu Jun smiled. Songjiang Mansion was planning everywhere, which showed that Deng Chu was very thoughtful.
He is looking forward to what Songjiang Mansion will look like in the future after rectification.
Zhu Jun has visited almost all of Songjiang Mansion in the past two days and is quite satisfied with the plan of Songjiang Mansion.
Planning does not necessarily require high-rise buildings, nor does rectification.
It is also possible to retain local characteristics and build Daye-style buildings.
Just like in later generations, the new Chinese style is the representative of luxury, but it is very expensive.
But no matter how big the undertaking is, it’s not that expensive.
Coupled with the cement and red bricks, the cost is even lower.
Near noon, the two of them found a teahouse. As soon as they sat down, they heard the people next to them say: "This time the tidal flat relocation is in trouble. It is said that the men in more than a dozen fishing villages are all staying at home, saying that people from the yamen dare to touch their houses. , just fight with the Yamen!"
"Isn't it? My third uncle is from over there. It is said that even a seven or eight-year-old baby is guarding the door of the house with a harpoon.
If this continues, I'm afraid it will really bleed! "
