Chapter 168 The situation in the southeast is "good"
"Uncle Xianzong!"
Su Ze found Lin Xianzong who was busy among a group of people.
The old carpenter held an ink ruler in his hand and was still measuring the distance carefully. After seeing Su Ze, he put down his work, handed it over to his apprentice and said to Su Ze, "Aze, are you back from the city?"
" Well, things in the city have been settled. Let's go back to the guard station and have a look."
Su Ze asked again: "Isn't Uncle Xianzong on the island?"
The island is naturally Dong'ao Island. Lin Xianzong repaired on Dong'ao Island some time ago. The boat has been busy for more than a month, why did it come back so soon?
Lin Xianzong pointed at the dark skin and said: "Aze, why are you like Baihu, using this old man to death? I have left everything on the island to my apprentice. I will be busy with this when I come back this time." "Water turbine?
" Lin
Xianzong nodded. In fact, the hydraulic turbine had appeared a long time ago and was recorded in agricultural books of the Yuan Dynasty.
After Su Ze drew the design of the hydraulic turbine, Lin Xianzong, a master craftsman in the shipyard who had been dealing with wood and water all his life, became very interested in hydraulic turbines.
But Su Ze said that the water power in the lower reaches of Jianxi River is not enough, so it is not suitable for making turbines.
"Why did the guard build a water turbine so far away?"
Lin Xianzong said happily: "This place already belongs to our Changning Guard!" "
Isn't it too far from Changning Guard?"
Lin Xianzong said, "This area is nearby Several villages in the country also wanted the guards to help train young men. Last time, Azze, didn't you say that this place is the most suitable for building a water turbine? I suggested to hundreds of households to get this land." Su Ze suddenly realized
, What is the most valuable thing in Nanping County today?
That is naturally a sense of security!
The surrounding villages are particularly envious of the villages close to Changning Guard. Who doesn't know about the fighting in Changning Guard nowadays? The Black Mountain bandits can be wiped out. It's safer to be near Changning Guard than near the county seat.
Who makes his position bad? These villages can't rely on Changning Guards, so they can only ask Changning Guards to help them train young men.
"Master, come and see if it's stuck again!"
An apprentice ran over, and Su Ze stood up and said, "Uncle Xianzong, let me take a look."
Walking to the side of the turbine, Su Ze, a Level 5 carpenter Skill immediately discovered the problem. He picked up the mallet and knocked it a few times, and the stuck turbine started spinning again.
The turbulent water impacts the rotation of the water turbine, and wooden bearings transmit the water power to the mill on the side.
With this water turbine, it is equivalent to having a cow that grinds day and night.
Many carpenters cheered, and Lin Xianzong looked at Su Ze regretfully. Su Ze was the most talented carpenter he had ever seen, but he was a scholar with a great future.
Where can I find a good carpenter?
But Lin Xianzong didn't know that there was no Zaifu who liked carpentry, but there was an emperor who liked carpentry.
Su Ze bid farewell to Lin Xianzong and finally returned to Changning Guard before dark.
"Brother Aze is back!"
Lin Liangjun, who was playing at the door of Changning Guard, saw Su Ze and immediately shouted excitedly. The children of Changning Guard rushed out of the house and surrounded Su Ze into Changning Guard.
Su Ze handed them the small gifts he bought from the county town, and the children gradually dispersed.
"Where's mine?" Lin Liangjun, the little carrot head, looked at Su Ze and stretched out his hand.
Su Ze took out a small crown and said, "This is for you."
Before the crowning ceremony in the Ming Dynasty, underage children would divide their hair into two halves and tie two knots on the left and right sides of their heads, like They are two sheep's horns, which are called "total horns".
But just like modern children always want to graduate from college quickly, children in ancient times also wanted to grow up quickly.
This kind of small crown is a toy for underage children. Lin Liangjun's eyes were wide open and he happily took the small crown and left. Now he can also comb his hair up to the crown!
"Brother Aze, my brother came back from the island. He said he received some letter from Yu Shibo and asked you to find him when you come back!"
A letter from Yu Dayou? Could it be that the situation in Zhejiang has changed again?
Su Ze returned to the family temple, handed them the snacks for the ninth aunt and the small gifts for Lin Cainiang, and then headed towards the Baihu House.
When Su Ze arrived, Lin Mojun was practicing shooting in the courtyard.
The hairpin-red spear emits a cold light under the torch, and a silver spear tip flies like a swimming dragon.
Su Ze couldn't help but feel a chill on his neck. He seemed to have seen the scene when he was being chased by Lin Mojun with a spear.
I didn't do anything, so what's wrong with me?
Su Ze secretly made up his mind to improve his sword skills when he had time, and he should not forget about the strength attribute.
Open the character panel:
Su Ze, male, 25 years old.
Intelligence: 10
Strength: 10
Agility: 6
Charm: 6
Remaining attribute points: 3
Su Ze quickly allocated two points of intelligence and one point of strength. After using up three points of free attributes, Lin Mojun also finished practicing his spear.
This was the first time the two met in private after Su Ze revealed Lin Mojun's female identity.
Lin Mojun still felt a little awkward, but she still thought about business and led Su Ze into the Hundred Households Office while wiping her sweat.
"This is Yu Shibo's reply."
No longer pretending to be a male voice, Lin Mojun's voice became much more natural.
After issuing military orders for a long time, her voice was naturally not euphemistic, but it was as sassy as herself.
Su Ze took the letter, which was a reply written by Yu Dayou to the Lin siblings.
Yu Dayou did not expect that Lin Mojun would reply. After receiving the Yuanyang Formation attached by Lin Mojun, Yu Dayou felt like he had found a treasure.
This formation is indeed a good formation to deal with Japanese pirates!
After Yu Dayou's last defeat, he was convicted and punished by the court. However, Zhang Jing, the governor of Zhejiang Military Affairs, wrote a letter to defend Yu Dayou and used his political career to vouch for Yu Dayou, allowing the court to retain his right to continue leading troops.
Yu Dayou was extremely grateful to the old commander. After receiving the Yuanyang Formation from Lin Mojun, he immediately began to train his soldiers.
Half a year after Zhang Jing arrived in Zhejiang, he finally straightened out the relationship between Zhejiang and Yu Dayou. Logistics support became increasingly sufficient, and this military training was considered a huge investment.
Last month, Japanese pirates invaded Wusong. This time Yu Dayou led the newly trained army to fight and defeated the Japanese pirates in one fell swoop!
Killed 30 real Japanese enemies and nearly 100 Ming bandits who followed the Japanese.
This contribution immediately restored Yu Dayou to his post. This letter was written by Yu Dayou to express his gratitude. The last letter was answered by Lin Mojun, and Lin Mojun also pretended that this mandarin duck formation was created by a dead old man.
Yu Dayou lamented that his friend died early, otherwise he would have recommended hundreds of households to come to Zhejiang to fight against the Japanese with him.
Then Yu Dayou was concerned about Lin Mojun's situation and asked her to urge her younger brother Lin Liangjun to practice martial arts and study hard.
"Is there any improvement in the anti-Japanese situation in Zhejiang?"
Su Ze shook his head. The Japanese rebellion in Zhejiang is not a military issue, but the forefront of party struggle.
Whether it is Qingliu or Yandang, whoever takes the lead in the anti-Japanese war is equivalent to controlling the financial and military power of the seven southeastern provinces, which is equivalent to having an invincible golden status in party struggles.
The fierce struggle between the two sides for dominance in the anti-Japanese war soon spread from upper-level civil servants to frontline generals like Yu Dayou.
In the 37th year of Jiajing's reign, the Japanese rebellion in Zhejiang was basically put down, but Yu Dayou, who had made great contributions, was imprisoned and sentenced.
If his friends hadn't spent all their money on the rescue, a generation of famous anti-Japanese generals would have died unjustly in prison.
Seeing Su Ze shaking his head, Lin Mojun felt various emotions in his heart. Then he thought of Yan Maoqing, the censor of the Qing army, who raided Fujian on the eve of the Japanese Rebellion in Fujian, and his heart grew cold towards the Ming court.
"Yu Shibo also said that Japanese pirate muskets were discovered in Zhejiang, and now the imperial court is imitating muskets."
Su Ze was not surprised by this result. In fact, the manufacturing capabilities of the Ming Dynasty in this era were not bad in the world. It is said that Ming Dynasty’s iron output ranked first in the world.
The Ming court realized the importance of the weapons and began to imitate them after coming into contact with blunderbuss and Franco machine guns.
Even in the late Ming Dynasty, Huang Kezan, Xu Guangqi and others made their own red cannons.
But the biggest problem with Ming military firearms is not technology, but corruption.
For example, the gunpowder produced by Wang Gong Factory was such that after the soldiers received the gunpowder, they had to sell the official gunpowder and go to the private sector to buy "fine powder".
At that time, some people said that 30% of the saltpeter sent to Wang Gong's factory was embezzled in the procurement process, and another 30% in the manufacturing process. Half of the purchases by the military camps were embezzled by camp officials. After the soldiers got the gunpowder, they had to cut it in half and sell it to the government. Gunpowder Purchase usable folk gunpowder.
1*0.7*0.7*0.5*0.5=0.1225
[Mathematical skill experience +1, Lv4, 173/400]
The court spent ten cents of the money, but only one part of the money went to the soldiers.
Such shocking corruption, not to mention making a blunderbuss, even the armor is extremely pitted.
The lead block on the armor only has an outer layer of lead, and the inside is filled with iron slag and sand.
The cast cannons and bird guns also exploded so badly that Qi Jiguang wrote in Ji Xiao's new book that the government-run weapons were unusable.
After talking about the war thousands of miles away, Lin Mojun talked about things at sea.
"There are more and more ships flying the Yuegang flag these days. According to your instructions, we will intercept and board the ships when we encounter them. Will our doing so violate the agreement with Yuegang?" Su Ze said with a smile
: "If we do this, Yuegang will thank us."
"If we hadn't strictly investigated the merchant ships that forged the Yuegang flag, then how could these ship owners buy the real Yuegang flag?"
Lin Mojun finally understood what Su Ze meant that she had also encountered several merchant ships flying fake Yuegang flags in the past few days. Following Su Ze's instructions, Lin Mojun grabbed them without missing a beat and once again showed off the majesty of the "Japanese pirates".
However, Lin Mojun was still a little worried and said: "If we rob like this, what if the imperial court, like Zhejiang, sets up a special army to conquer?"
Su Ze said with a smile: "No, at least the Japanese rebellion will be quelled in Zhejiang. Before, no one would care about Fujian's affairs, and Fujian officials would never mention us without opening their eyes."
Seeing that Lin Mojun still didn't understand, Su Ze said: "Firstly, we will not attack the government troops, and secondly, we will not land and rob. Who will Are you blindly reporting that there are Japanese pirates in Fujian? As for the merchants who were robbed, the imperial court has ordered them to ban them from going to sea, but we are helping the imperial court implement the maritime ban policy." Su Ze's statement made Lin Mojun laugh, but when he looked
carefully I think this is indeed the case.
Without support from the sea, the sporadic Japanese pirates who landed in Fujian were wiped out.
Today, the "Japanese pirates" on Dong'ao Island are in a state of incompatibility with the Fujian Coastal Guard Station.
As for those merchant ships that were robbed, the capable merchants had already obtained the flag of Yuegang. Who would report to the authorities if they were robbed without the ability?
Officials from all over Fujian also have a tacit understanding.
The imperial court has had enough hard work fighting against the Japanese in Zhejiang. We Fujian officials should not add any more trouble to the emperor and the ministers in the DPRK.
As long as the Japanese pirates from Dong'ao Island do not come ashore, there will be no Japanese pirates in Fujian!
Yamen at all levels have maintained a tacit understanding. Now Fujian reported to the Ministry of War that the Japanese pirates who landed have been wiped out and the Japanese pirates at sea have been repelled.
Fujian's situation is not a small good, but a great good!
For this reason, the Ministry of War also commended and commended officials from the Fujian Dusi Yamen, praising them as the pillars of the southeastern empire.
Sure enough, as Su Ze said, Yan Jiali, who had been buying stolen goods this month, didn't mention anything about the robberies of the ships with fake moon harbors, and even calculated some extra money when settling the stolen goods. Lin Mojun knew that Su Ze was right.
Then Fujian Dusi and Biwa issued an official document to the general office, which also mentioned not to go to sea to find trouble on Dong'ao Island, which further confirmed Su Ze's guess that everyone in Fujian was preparing to be a coward.
All this made Lin Mojun even more disappointed with the Ming Dynasty. Back then, his father actually gave up his life for these insects?
I polished my skills and went to the county town to study. The days passed day by day, and the 33rd year of Jiajing also ushered in the end of the year.
The New Elementary School textbook compiled by Su Ze has been written and handed over to Yao Chun for typesetting and printing. Dozens of copies were sent to the Health Education and Nursing Homes.
This elementary school book by Su Ze is a children's enlightenment book based on the "Young Learning Qionglin" written in the Qing Dynasty.
Qionglin on Children's Education is also a strange book in the Qing Dynasty. It abandoned the thousands of years of enlightenment method that started with classics teachings and turned it into a children's encyclopedia starting from stories and using commonly used words.
The book mainly introduces comprehensive knowledge, covering everything from astronomy and geography, family diet, flowers, birds, animals and trees.
Su Ze also retained the title of "Young Learning Qionglin", and added some simple physics, mathematics, and chemistry knowledge to the book, added a new chapter on investigating things, and also attached some facts that can be verified daily in the book. Little experiment.
In order to publish "Young Learning Qionglin", Su Ze simply hired several engraving masters and directly spent a lot of money to make the engravings.
Not only were the words engraved on the engraving, Su Ze also drew the accompanying pictures himself.
When drawing the accompanying pictures, Su Ze triggered the "painting" skill.
Although the paintings produced by Level 1 painting skills are at the level of simple drawings, it is originally a book for children, but it looks a bit childlike.
Compared with the boring Three-Character Classic and Thousand-Character Classic, Kindergarten Qionglin is popular among children.
What Su Ze didn't expect was that after he put "Young Learning Qionglin" on the shelves at his own bookstore, it was also sold out.
Su Ze then remembered that this was not only the first Mongolian book, but could also be used as an encyclopedia. For ordinary people with limited literacy, this book was much more beautiful than "Duo Neng Shi Shi".
It’s the end of the year in a blink of an eye.
