Chapter 500 The archway is to be established

"Please see, the adults are preparing to retain and expand the shipyard that was originally located upstream of Guangzhou Port. If several people also want to get involved in shipbuilding, the adults are encouraged and reserved a place for the construction of shipyards for several people. At the same time, a new shipyard will be built under the jurisdiction of the General Office of the Maritime General Office. The existing port will not move for the time being, and the waterway will be excavated ten miles downstream of the current Guangzhou Port to dredge the silt to build a new port.

Within ten miles between the New Port and the Old Port, adults have also planned warehouses, restaurants and inns. At the same time, in order not to disturb the nearby people's fishing, a dock of nearly five miles between the New Port and the Old Port should be excavated to build a special purpose for fishing boats. It can also be used as a backup for the New Port, and it will not disturb the entry and exit of merchant ships."

Ding Daquan took out a sketch from his sleeve and pointed it out.

Zheng Mingxuan, Qiu Shuyu and others looked at each other. They originally thought they were building a new port, but now it seems that it is much more than that.

Guangzhou's shipbuilding industry is extremely developed. Although it is gradually becoming more surpassed by Quanzhou Port, the main reason is that for so many years, it is that Guangzhou Port has basically not been repaired and the port facilities are extremely backward. Quanzhou Port is also one of the foreign trade ports stipulated by the imperial court. Even the Sansi Envoy specifically stipulated that some merchant ships from other countries must dock in Quanzhou, just as the Sansi Envoy stipulated that merchants from Goryeo and Japan must go through Qingyuan Port to get ashore, and even envoys must pass through Qingyuan Port to meet the saints in Beijing.

As the first foreign trade port to develop, Guangzhou Port is not only behind Quanzhou and Qingyuan Port in terms of facilities, but is even despised in court policies.

This is also one of the reasons why the Sansi was willing to give up the Guangzhou Port Maritime Division.

Although there is oil and water, it is not too much.

If we really build the new port according to Jia Sidao's sketch, it would take a lot of time and money to dredge the silt and dig the waterway or even dig the shore base for several miles. It would be fine to say that the money was made. Since we agreed, Zheng Mingxuan and others were prepared in their hearts. However, such a huge project would require a lot of labor at this time.

It is the spring plowing season, and the Guangdong Pacification Envoy is recruiting a large number of soldiers. Can so many labors be used in Guangzhou now?

"To be honest, since we have agreed to the adults and are willing to support them with all our strength, we can still get more or less money. However, we are powerless to do anything about the large amount of labor required. If there is not enough labor available for use, it may be delayed Lord Jia's plan..."

"Don't worry, you guys, these adults have already considered it for you. In a few days, a group of Japanese ships will enter the port, and there will definitely be enough labor for you to use. What's more, the adults are kind. This time, the Ming Cult is in chaos, and those rioters will not be sentenced to death directly. It's just right to build a new port, which will save you money."

A glimpse of the leopard and Ding Daquan's last sentence more or less let Zheng Mingxuan and others know why this person stands out and makes Jia Sidao value it so much.

It is obvious that Ding Daquan just knew that the war has not begun, but he has already thought about the use of the prisoners of the rioters. Doing so will not only not delay the construction of the Xingang, but also save a lot of trouble for Guangdong Road. After all, if all these rioters are killed, it will not only be of no benefit, but will also cause some damage to Jia Sidao's reputation.

For a literati, bloodthirsty is really not a good reputation.

There is another sentence that Ding Daquan did not say, that is, if there are not enough people from Japan and there are not enough prisoners captured on Fujian Road, wouldn’t there be Lianzhou?

Although Jia Sidao did not avoid Zheng Mingxuan and others when he told him that the chaos in Fujian were in trouble, Ding Daquan would not be so stupid that he told Zheng Mingxuan and others about the chaos in Lianzhou. Lianzhou was different from Fujian. Lianzhou was directly under the rule of Guangdong Road, and the name he made was also caused by Jia Sidao's arbitrarily slaughtering the wing soldiers.

This matter is big or small, but no matter what, the Xiang soldiers camp was done by the imperial decree. Jia Sidao was abolition of the imperial court. No matter where he said it, it was unreasonable, let alone caused a mutiny from the Xiang soldiers. Even if everyone knew that the abolition was just the reason, the real reason was the Ming Cult, but this reason was enough for the imperial court to attack Jia Sidao.

Why are Zheng Mingxuan and others willing to travel all the way to Guangzhou? Isn’t it because they are optimistic about Jia Sidao’s future?

If the incident in Lianzhou spreads, I am afraid that these are the ones who are unstable first.

Ding Daquan is not so stupid.

Even Ding Daquan had begun to consider whether to meet Jia Sidao later, and made a statement to directly control all the news about Lianzhou, and strive to ensure that no news was leaked, and the court could not let the court know. Although there is a possibility of deceiving the emperor, as long as the control is good, Guangzhou is so far from Lin'an City, as long as there is no evidence, what can it do?

"Will someone from Japan come to build a port for the Song Dynasty?"

Zheng Mingxuan was tactful and did not worry about the matter on Fujian Road, but instead asked.

This is indeed unreasonable. Although Japan is a vassal state of the Song Dynasty, the labor required to build a port is not a small amount. I think Jia Sidao would not say that it is. But if so many Japanese ****s are brought to the Song Dynasty to build a port, if this is spread, let alone those who censors, the scholars of the Song Dynasty will probably attack them in groups, right?

How can the Supreme Kingdom of the Celestial Empire treat common people like this?

"You are thinking too much. This is not something that the adults intentionally do, but something that is caused by real compassion. The Japanese envoy Yeju was in charge of visiting the crown prince before, and he had contact with the adults again. For this reason, the censor even made a charge of colluding with a foreign country, which is really ridiculous. Fortunately, the emperor's wise wisdom was not disturbed by villains.

The Wild Ju envoy told the adults that wars in Japan are everywhere, and generals from all over the country will do their own things in order to disrespect the king of the Japanese. The attacks continue. The adults are kind and kind, and they are kind enough to accept those Japanese who are homeless due to the war. Isn't this a demonstration of the difficult act of the saints of the great Song Dynasty that the country of the country complies with the common people?

The monk said that saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. How many lives did you save in this move? How many merits have you accumulated for me? It is not easy for the Japanese people to survive. Although I, the Song Dynasty, have been in constant wars, but after all, it is a vast land and wealth. I can always give these victims who are willing to come to the Song Dynasty to avoid chaos, and they can avoid the disaster of war. When the war in Japan is quelled, the Japanese will not stop them."

Of course, the Japanese people were not what Ding Daquan said. But no matter what, Ding Daquan would not directly tell Zheng Mingxuan and others that these Japanese people not only had to build ports for the Song Dynasty, but also had to go to the battlefield to fight for the Song Dynasty. This life would only die in the Song Dynasty.
