Half a month later.
A strong wind has just blown through Qiongzhou, leaving everything in shambles. The government is organizing manpower and troops to repair houses and demolish dilapidated buildings for the people.
The suspended shipyards are operating at full capacity again, and arsenals and steel plants are continuing to be built in full swing.
The original pirates were organized into five battalions, and the excess manpower went to help build the steel mill.
Of course, many people couldn't change from pirates to soldiers with strict orders, but Qin Yun gave them half a month's buffer.
Now that half a month is up, those who can't adapt are asked to leave.
Regardless of whether they were making a living for themselves or leaving Qiongzhou, Qin Yun paid them travel expenses, which was considered the most benevolent thing.
Of course, those who stay will be treated equally, with housing, high welfare benefits, and the love of the people of Qiongzhou.
When they wore dark green uniforms with camouflage uniforms and carried wooden spears (the current production is not enough), walking in the fields and streets of Qiongzhou, what they received was not people's contempt, but people's respect.
These children from poor fishermen's families have once again found the pure kindness deep in their hearts.
Perhaps it is because of the fanaticism of the converts, but these sergeants are more understanding and accepting of the military's regulations in all aspects, respecting the old and caring for the young, and helping the military and civilians...
The whole Qiongzhou looked prosperous, and because of the pirates, it was eliminated.
Just after the strong wind passed, many merchants from various places came to Qiongzhou Port. They came here to sell goods, especially refined salt, sugar, monosodium glutamate, etc., as well as textiles.
It also brought down Qiongzhou with all kinds of industrial raw materials needed by Qiongzhou.
But on this day, a special official ship came to Qiongzhou Port. The ship was very exquisite, and there were many elite guardsmen standing on the ship. They were all full of energy, and of course the other half who were not full were vomiting at the stern of the ship. .
Hong Haoxuan never expected that when he went out to perform a mission, a group of nobles from the Beijing circle who had infiltrated the Jinyi Guards insisted on following him to the south of the Yangtze River. No, these nobles who had never experienced strong winds and waves almost vomited their gall. come out.
"Commander, when can we dock? We have been queuing outside this port for two hours. Can't we just let these merchant ships get out?"
The speaker was the son of a Marquis of Wuxun, and he was used to being domineering.
But do you think Hong Haoxuan is willing to queue up?
When they first arrived, they encountered a red-haired ghost fleet from Luzon who jumped in line without following the rules. The result was that an iron-clad black ship with black smoke came over, making this group of red-haired ghosts happily meet them. host.
Hong Haoxuan also revealed their identities, but these "bandit" soldiers in Qiongzhou didn't care about him at all.
He kept reciting unbelievable words such as "Eight Honors and Eight Disgraces", "The military and civilians are one family", "Official ships must be sacrificed to the people".
Of course, they don't have to listen. This group of sergeants who look like bandits, but may actually be bandits, will not reason with them.
In the end, Hong Haoxuan pinched his nose and endured it. He swore that he had never felt such cowardice in his life.
The sun was setting in the west, the sunset was infinitely beautiful, and the official ship of the imperial court finally docked at Qiongzhou Port.
"Master Shen, we're here!"
Hong Haoxuan was the first to enter the cabin and call for help. Shen Wanwan walked out reluctantly.
Looking at the black smoke rising over Qiongzhou, looking at the caravans coming and going, looking at the racks and newly built buildings being built everywhere...
He said angrily with a straight face: "Are you sure this is Qiongzhou, not Suzhou?"
Hong Haoxuan couldn't help but smile: "Sir, this is indeed Qiongzhou. We came across the sea and were lost for three days. Have you forgotten?"
Shen Wansan sighed: "This Qin Yun still has a few brushes!"
"Let's go, no, he won't come to pick us up?"
"The humble post has sent someone to report, they should be here!" Hong Haoxuan was also a little unsure.
"Sir, are you looking over there?"
Shen Wansan took a closer look and saw a donkey, several mules, and two people walking on the road, holding a sign in their hands - "Welcome the imperial eagles and dogs to guide the construction of Qiongzhou."
The purple sand teapot in Shen Wansan's hand almost stopped straining.
"That's too much! Hong Haoxuan, you are the imperial envoy, go ahead!"
Hong Haoxuan took a closer look and found that there was an old man wearing a raincoat hanging fish next to him. When he looked again, his eyelids were twitching wildly.
"Sir...Sir, look at that person?"
Shen Wansan followed Hong Haoxuan's gaze and was slightly surprised.
"Wang Menghu!"
"Sir, I don't dare to do this in a humble position. You know Commander Wang's temper."
Shen Wansan snorted coldly, holding the purple sand teapot in one hand, and stepped over.
At this time, the man leading the mule and donkey came forward.
"Dare I ask, is it Master Shen?"
"It's me!"
The leader cupped his hands and said, "I'm Yu Cheng'en. Your Majesty asked me to pick up Mr. Shen!"
Shen Wansan narrowed his eyes: "The Yu family? The newly rising Yu family?"
Yu Chengen smiled and said: "It all depends on the prince!"
"Is your prince going to ride this for me?"
The guard on the side said: "The prince specifically ordered that Master Shen is only worthy of sitting here!"
Shen Wansan was furious, this bastard was so heartless.
At this time, Hong Haoxuan and other royal guards also disembarked from the boat.
But just two steps later, Wang Menghu pulled up a big fish. He pulled out a knife from his waist, scraped off the fish scales in front of Hong Haoxuan, cut off the fish meat one by one, spread it with wasabi, and dipped it in soy sauce to enjoy it. Put it in your mouth.
"This fish is still delicious if caught fresh, Xiaoxuanzi, don't you think so?"
A group of noble disciples drew their swords: "Where are the beggars? Didn't you see that I am wearing a flying fish suit? Get away!"
Wang Menghu flew up and landed in front of everyone.
Hong Haoxuan turned his head stiffly: "Yes...yes, the old commander!"
Everyone was shocked. Wasn't the old commander dead?
Wang Menghu shook his head and sighed: "Sure enough, when people leave and I leave, Jinyiwei becomes a cesspit? Why doesn't Yang Gong come to see me in person?"
"Mr. Yang has something important to do."
Wang Menghu's eyes turned cold: "He's busy paving the way for his new master, right?"
"I'm asking you something!"
The grand master's momentum was suppressed, and the grand master Hong Haoxuan almost knelt down on the spot. Of course, this was not only the oppression caused by his strength, but also the shadow that had been brought to Hong Haoxuan.
At that time, Hong Haoxuan was just a small Qianhu. At that time, Wang Menghu was the leader of the Jinyi Guards, and he killed people like crazy.
Hong Haoxuan stammered: "Little one, I don't know."
Wang Menghu patted Hong Haoxuan on the shoulder: "Don't worry, I won't kill anyone anymore. This fish is a reward for you!"
After saying that, he dropped the fish meat, and Hong Haoxuan took the fish with both hands and lay limply on the ground.
A crowd of hundreds of households gathered around: "Sir, are you okay?"
Hong Haoxuan muttered: "It's okay, you must not mess with that old man, he is Wang Menghu!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone finally confirmed that Jin Yiwei was the most fierce commander in history.
Wang Menghu, it is said that he was not called this name when he was a child, but he got this tiger name after he killed a group of tigers with his bare hands.
"Sir, then our errand..."
Hong Haoxuan sighed: "Just take it one step at a time! You all spread out and get to know the local customs and customs!"
"promise!"
…
Not long after, Shen Wansan followed Yu Chengen to a remote suburb. Looking at the cowshed, Shen Wansan finally couldn't help it.
"It's too much!"
Yu Chengen said in a neither humble nor arrogant tone: "Your Majesty said, this cowshed is not ordinary. It is specially used to find distinguished guests like you."
"you……"
Shen Wansan: "I want to see Qin Yun!"
Yu Chengen smiled and said: "Your Majesty is inspecting the situation of the strong wind and has not returned yet."
Shen Wansan: "Didn't he even accept the imperial edict?"
"Your Majesty said that the disaster was an imperial edict. The world is too big and the earth is not as big as the safety of people's lives and property!"
Shen Wansan couldn't help but cursed: "Damn it, you have to arrange a decent place for me to live."
"The prince said that all the good houses have been given to the people to live in temporarily. Once Mr. Shen is used to living there, it is good to change the environment occasionally."
"What else does your prince say?" Shen Wansan snorted coldly.
Yu Chengen paused: "It's better not to say anything, sir, I'm afraid your heart won't be able to bear it!"
"Say, I forgive you!"
Yu Chengen imitated Qin Yun's tone: "You old bastard selling your daughter for glory, how dare you come to see me?"
"Pfft~~"
"Qin Yun, you are going too far!"
…
In the palace of Prince Liang.
"You said he was so angry that he vomited blood?" Qin Yun laughed.
Yu Chengen nodded.
"My lord, you are an imperial envoy after all, so this is not good!"
Qin Yun: "It's a kindness not to throw it into the sea to feed the fish."
Yu Chengen: "..."
At this time, a maid came to report: "Your Majesty, Miss Han is packing her things and saying she is leaving."
Qin Yun was stunned: "Why?"
The maid shook her head to express her ignorance, and Yu Chengen on the side said: "Your Majesty, the group of royal guards in the capital said that Your Majesty coveted the beauty of the Korean girl and colluded with the pirates to massacre Chaozhou."
"Fucking fart!"
"Go and ask Yang Yong to arrest everyone."
After speaking, Qin Yun went straight to Han Jiangxue's residence.
