PS: The chapter yesterday was not approved, so I have no choice but to show my hands...〒_〒..., can you help me see if there is anything I can modify.
The next day, Jiang Tian became busy again. Thanks to the successful recharge and renewal of Alien World, he also had enough capital to re-place a large number of various orders through Pei's channels. There are ready-made foods such as biscuits and cans, as well as large quantities of rice and wheat beans.
There are not only cheap Tianzhu cotton and woolen products from the Western Regions on a ship-by-ship basis, but also complete sets of ready-made clothes, shoes, socks, clothing, quilts, blankets, etc. that are being produced in large quantities; there are also daily necessities such as grease, icing sugar, tea cakes, and refined salt. For daily necessities, there are also a large number of farm implements and tools made of refined iron.
According to the words of the person responsible for handling this matter, these are the most common circulating commodities and products on the market; the amount Jiang Tian needs is only a drop in the huge volume of circulation in the world; it is not even comparable to that of an ordinary feudal lord. country, only the number of orders within a year.
The Tang Dynasty was known as the world, with hundreds of vassals and vassals on all four sides, and huge amounts of various materials were purchased from China every year; it also created a quite prosperous industrial system. The main problem is that if spot goods are needed, it will take a certain amount of time to turn over and adjust.
In addition, what is relatively troublesome is the fine steel and related products that can be used to make weapons. In fact, according to the imperial court's three prohibitions and three prohibitions, in addition to long soldiers, armor and crossbows, even swords, bows and horses can be sold openly on the street. But there is some suspicion if you buy too much.
But fortunately, Jiang Tian now has official identity protection, and the Pei family has one of its own counterpart businesses, which is responsible for reviewing and approving the quotas for the import of resources and products and the export of products by the princes and vassals. So it's easy to mix some out of it.
In fact, Jiang Tian only made a request of "needing a batch of ready-made steel ingots to refine the essence of hardware." Then, there were a hundred thousand kilograms of uniformly regulated steel ingots, as well as obsolete ordnance for a thousand people; yes, it was obsolete ordnance. This is also a major feature of the current dynasty.
Although the imperial court has relatively strict restrictions and quotas on the export of military products of various armored and crossbow equipment to overseas princes and vassals, it is relatively loose on the obsolete items that have been eliminated and discarded in the military. Therefore, this is also a means of generating income for the military in a sense.
However, the condition of this batch of discarded ordnance is quite good. Although it looks rusty or full of dust and mud on the outside, it has obviously been gathering dust in the warehouse for a long time. But with a little polishing and cleaning, it's as bright as new. Therefore, it is more like some tacit probing method from Pei.
However, Jiang Tian also tacitly accepted everyone who came. Anyway, except for a few precautionary measures, he does not intend to use these devices in this time and space; even if there is any suspicion of violation, the existence hidden behind Pei can be traced to another time and space if he has the ability!
What's more, in addition to the two existing hydraulic workshops that produce similar products, they serve as cover. No matter how many orders Jiang Tian places, how many supplies he allocates. The price he paid was not a penny less, it was real money from another timeline;
After all, there is an entire Haidong regime as its backing and foundation. Just in the natural secret room under the Qingqi Garden, there are at least hundreds of boxes of smelted gold ingots and silver plates, as well as various kinds of ingots with inscriptions removed. Gold and silver utensils and other products mainly come from raids and seizures.
In fact, the land of Haidong is also rich in copper materials. Just within the territory of the Gongfang clan and the public territory to which Little Round Face belongs, there are more than a dozen large and small copper mountains; however, due to the war, most of them either fled and were abandoned, or were occupied by local forces. ; so it will take some time to resume production.
But the price-performance ratio for teleportation is much worse. Therefore, Jiang Tian's suggestion was to mint money with it, and then exchange it for gold and silver from the nearby Fuso Islands, which are relatively rich in mineral deposits, and then use it as a preparatory price for long-distance transactions. Of course, certain channels for monetization are also needed.
After all, as a highly centralized and unified regime, it is quite capable of deterrence and execution. But this problem that troubles most people is not a problem at all for Jiang Tian. In a sense, there is no need to explain it deliberately under the halo of the magical magic that "turns stone into gold".
In addition, Jiang Tian also managed to collect a large number of books.
In addition to the craft and construction books related to agronomy, forestry, mining and carpentry, masonry, and hardware that are freely sold and circulated in the market; he even paid someone to hire a group of students from the Third Affiliated School; thinking that Copied internal teaching materials and purchased notes and annotations from the same year.
In a sense, compared with those consumables for people's livelihood transmitted through the air, or precious metals used for trading; these daily knowledge that were only popular in the peaceful and prosperous times were for the Haidong regime, which was full of waste and waiting for improvement. It is the most precious and long-lasting wealth.
The only thing that can limit all of this is the length of time and amount of passage that can maintain the "space-time hole" mode through blood sacrifice. Therefore, when Jiang Tian and Xiao Yuanlian contacted them for the last time, they heard Jiashan Jun propose a new follow-up implementation plan.
On the pretext of purging and clearing out the remnants of the Maitreya sect and the pseudo-Baekje rebels hiding in the sect, and killing and praying for the Dharma assembly, they convened the Thirteen Prefectures of Haidong, headed by the "Three Mountains and Five Institutes" and the "Five Religions and Two Sects" Buddhist monks from all over the country came to Beijing to discuss Dharma and scriptures and determine the strict rules of the sect.
By the way, just like the Buddhist tradition that has become all kinds of weird since it was introduced to Fuso, there are also differences and oppositions between the single monks and the married monks in the Buddhist sect in Haidong. This time, the important distinction between secularism and monasticism will be redefined after the discussion of scriptures and methods.
To put it bluntly, this is the Haidong Palace headed by Xiao Yuanmian; with the huge momentum, popularity and authority of regaining their homeland, they have been parasitic in this vassal system for a long time and have accumulated a lot of wealth and resources among the sect. Man, a straightforward showdown and ultimatum.
If these had basically no sense of presence and little contribution in the process of the government's recovery of Haidong during the massive invasion of the Fuso Allied Forces. Instead, some people secretly defected to the Fuso Bandits one after another, or were linked to Baekje's rebels and Maitreya heretics. They would not be able to If you have some understanding and accept your fate:
Then we will face a comprehensive attack and suppression by the government, which is threatening the whole country; it is not impossible to even set off a Haidong version of the Buddhist extermination movement. After all, it has been hundreds of years since Buddhism was introduced to Haidong, but there has never been a decent manifestation of the saint.
However, as the patron saint of the contemporary government, Jiang Tian has demonstrated his vast magical powers in public more than once; under this dimensionality reduction attack, while taking advantage of the situation to attack and clean up various local obscene rituals, as a member of the traditional Taoist sects, The rise of factions is inevitable.
Jiang Tian can certainly use coercion to prohibit others from enshrining and sacrificing his name and image indiscriminately; but when the general public in the local area are generally ignorant and their lives are difficult and difficult, they need an illusory spiritual sustenance to paralyze themselves and themselves. Reduce the cost of governance.
So this time, he had to try to preach the scriptures himself. That is to say, find someone to compile a set of relatively easy-to-understand primary science enlightenment textbooks using the language of contemporary ancients and Taoist expressions; and then, in the name of personal Taoist inheritance, try to see if it can bear fruit in a different time and space.
At the same time, he is responsible for supervising the follow-up work of cleaning up the underground network in Chang'an. After the Lixingyuan/Anxing Yushi Department has significantly expanded its staff, the training of the lay team and the running-in of the new and old staff of the expert department cannot be achieved. Relax and slack off. The tenderness of returning home also diminished.
This busyness has lasted until the golden autumn of July, when the autumn weather is gradually getting clearer. It was only with the discovery of the last privately dug secret network tunnel between Nannei and Dongshi, and the Xijingli Xingyuan that was on the right track, and various tasks were gradually let go, that Jiang Tian finally felt at ease.
Then, he also received invitations for autumn hunting and outings again. However, this time, he was not a participant in one of the families, but was ordered to lead a team and become a secret protector; because this autumn hunting/outing was a large-scale collective activity initiated in the name of Ouchi.

Because someone had specifically hinted and informed them in advance that this time there would be a disguised test and test of the bloodiness and bravery of many clan relatives and noble eunuchs; at that time, more than a dozen of them would be imprisoned in the underground branch and in special prisons. The ferocious beasts/exotic beasts may still have a chance to be put to use.
However, just the night before departure. Jiang Tian, who was left on duty in the underground branch, under the cover of Linghu Xiaomu's somewhat resentful routine, quietly bypassed many internal patrols and secret sentries, and followed one of the exclusive passages to the surface. in the street market.
Only this time, he once again transformed into the Night God, but he did not linger in the market; instead, he wandered in the wind under the night and arrived at Dongda Market near Nannei Xingqing Palace. I saw tens of thousands of shops and inns, known as 220 rows, standing in the darkness with dots of lights.
On the edge of Gouqing Ridge, one of Chang'an's scenic spots in the northwest corner of Dongshi, which is specially used to deal with criminals and bury corpses; a small construction site with an open-air shed. Where the shaft was originally located, a foot-wide cave has been dug; it is deep and dark and extends straight downward.
With a number of swaying patrol lights, in the short blind spot of vision and light gradually formed by outsiders; Jiang Tian came quietly with the wind, and followed the wind into the cave. Because what he was looking for was inside, but it would soon be sealed again.
That's right, taking advantage of the opportunity to investigate the underground network channels in Chang'an North City, Jiang Tian basically obtained the relevant maps of the underground network layout stored in Jingzhao Mansion. After a pair of old officials, Dai Youmeng and his grandson, who worked hard for several days and nights on various comparisons, they also found the origin of the original graphic diagram.
It was in the small building where Jiang Tian stayed in Youtufang, and the piece of Huanhuan cloth found in the tree trunk in the backyard marked the location of the unknown figure. This thing seems to be related to the former residents of the small building, which led to a series of attacks on the small building during the Youtufang Rebellion.
Now, Jiang Tian can finally find some answers.
