Chapter 761: Your ancestral grave is smoking
As its name suggests, the Crescent Pier in Lingnan is a coast composed of the inland sea and the coast. It was already late autumn, with more than a hundred ships coming and going on the sea. When the ships had not landed, there were already many workers employed with merchants gathering, waiting for the ships to land and then conducting trade.
Feng Ang pointed at the businessman in the distance and whispered.
"The Crescent Dock belongs to the Lingnan Government Dock. Usually, workers trade uniformly after unloading goods, but there is a rule that is not true in this Crescent Bay, that is, merchants can spend money to trade directly with merchants, and merchants come to make up for the tax on ships. The old minister knew this in his heart, and turned a blind eye to it."
After the words came to an end, Chu Suiliang added.
"The dock only recognizes money, not people? But that's the reason?"
Feng Ann nodded and smiled.
"You are right. It is precisely this principle. The roads built in Lingnan are the same as those built in Lingnan. The annual maintenance costs are not small. If you encounter wind and waves, the wharf will be damaged. It can be said that if the Lingnan government’s foundation is not deep enough, it will not be able to support the operation of the entire Lingnan. The old minister said whatever he said, and he cannot hide it from His Majesty. The old minister can also guarantee that the Feng family of this wharf will not take any money."
"Yes, your Feng family won't take a penny. Even this mountain and this stone are enough to keep your Feng family alive for hundreds of years."
Wei Jiu squatted on the beach not far away and spoke sarcastically. He held a huge mango in his hand and slapped it. The juice flowed down the cracks of his fingers, which was so satisfying.
Feng Ang simply ignored Wei Jiu and continued.
"The old minister dared not embezzle the money of this mountain stone. Lingnan is the territory of the Tang Empire. Every stone and tree in the mountain belongs to His Majesty. The old minister just made the people earn some hard money to supplement their family income."
"Yes, yes, you're right, and you're all right, and you're going to supplement your Feng family. Feng Ang, you have more than 100 wives and concubines, and you have more than 20 sons. You're better than that kind of horse."
"Wei Wuliang, I have fought with you."
"Don't you want Lingnan to become the second heart of the Tang Dynasty?"
A sentence made Feng Ang's anger disappear completely. He laughed and approached Wei Jiu and asked in a low voice whether the mango was sweet. Li Er and the officials had no way to deal with the old and the young, and pointed at the two and laughed.
Just now, Li Er is quite satisfied with Lingnan.
"Don't eat the evil deeds. Now you are coming to Lingnan as a marquis of the country, not as Feng Ang's nephew, put away your naughtiness."
Li Er spoke, and Wei Jiu had to restrain himself. When he stood up, he threatened Feng Ang to speak nonsense again. He transferred Feng Zhidai to the Japanese pirates as the governor. He wanted to come back for the rest of his life. Feng Ang looked like he was not afraid of his children, which made Wei Jiu helpless.
After two years together, Feng Ang had already learned about the way to deal with Wei Jiu. Just be even more scoundrel than him.
Wiped his hands and returned to Li Er and spoke seriously.
"Lingnan became the second heart of the Tang Dynasty, but was working towards this goal. Lingnan has the advantage of temperature and has entered summer all year round. The rich products are beyond everyone's expectations. Bananas, mangoes and other fruits can be stored in a short period of time, and sea specialties account for 30% of the Tang Dynasty. Wood and spices are enough to make Lingnan rich. Now Lingnan has open doors to the outside world, trade and learning from multiple countries. Lingnan's science and technology development will be very fast, and the flow of merchants will be huge. Materials, culture, commerce and official governance and development. It can be said that the development speed of Lingnan will be ten times faster than other prefectures and counties. The main reason is that there are countries in the South China Sea, but there are no one in the East China Sea."
While speaking, Wei Jiu gradually realized that Li Er's face was a little wrong and immediately said.
"The Wei family will not interfere in anything in Lingnan, nor will it allow Lingnan to establish a research institute. The main prefecture and county developed by the Wei family is Chang'an. The Wei family wants to ensure that Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty, will always be prosperous and prosperous, and that any prefecture and county cannot be replaced. This is the accusation and task of the Wei family, to protect the Tang Dynasty royal family from economic threats."
Li Er smiled, pointed at Wei Jiu and scolded him to go and wash his hands clean. Don’t flatter him like he had honey in his mouth. He won’t eat this trick.
Even though he said that, anyone could see that His Majesty was very satisfied with Wei Wuliang's words. Feng Ang squeezed his chin and muttered quietly, saying that if it was an enemy, he would have to cut his tongue first. This mouth is too uttered.
Wei Jiu's words were the first reassurance for Li Er. His wealth in the Wei family was to protect the Li family's royal family from encountering economic crisis.
Wei Jiu took out another mango in his arms and handed it to Li Er.
"Let's go to the beach to see? Lingnan was very lively at the beginning. Song Ziguan slaughtered all the bandit leaders in Lingnan. Li Jing and his brother's bearded fight were irrelevant. If I hadn't known, he died... Let's go, Your Majesty, go to the port to have a look."
I couldn't help but almost said it, or it could be said that it had already been said. Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Gong looked at each other. No wonder the bearded guest disappeared in the end, and they died in the hands of this evil man.
Even if this is a well-known secret, the two of them chose to rot in their stomachs.
Feng Ang, as the most popular person in Lingnan, caused a sensation when he appeared at the dock. The crew and merchants came forward one after another, handing water and holding umbrellas. Wei Jiu squinted his eyes and looked at the scene in front of him, with a trace of unhappiness flashing in his eyes.
"cough!"
A dry cough made Feng Ang sweat instantly, and he immediately turned around and knelt on his knees.
"The old minister Feng Ang is guilty. Please forgive your majesty. The wharf has not been completed according to your wishes. Now many of the wharfs have not met the national standards. Please punish him."
As soon as these words were spoken, the people behind Feng Ang were stunned.
His Majesty?
Your Majesty today?
Then someone was dissatisfied with each other and wanted to stand up for Feng Ang. Wei Jiu spoke before Li Er at this time, staring at Feng Ang with a cold look.
"Duke Geng, please be careful when speaking, and in order of ideas. If you can save yourself in front of the people, many people will probably die in the world. The merchants of the people are very satisfied with the wharf, but you act like your Majesty blames you. Let me ask you, where did you place Your Majesty and where you are."
He sternly scolded Feng Ang's heart like a sharp knife. He understood at this moment that His Majesty should be doting this evil.
Bang!
Feng Ann knocked heavily on the ground. Wei Jiu quickly dodged away and gave way to Li Er who was behind him. Feng Ann knelt down and shouted loudly.
"Your Majesty, I have no such intention."
Wei Jiu snorted coldly.
"Feng Ang, you are old and sometimes confused. But I want to remind you that the Lingnan pier is not satisfied with me. If Your Majesty hadn't been nagging you that Feng Ang was His Majesty's most trusted minister, otherwise you would think I would let you go? You, a little Duke Geng, aren't you in my Majesty's eyes? Do you know?"
Bang!
Wei Jiu suddenly felt a pain in his butt, and then he rushed out. Li Er's face turned pale and glared at Wei Wuliang.
"Shut up to me, saying that you don't know the importance of it once or twice, get out of here."
After the words came forward, he stretched out his hands to support Feng Ang.
"Old Feng, if you let the people of Lingnan eat and wear well and don't go hungry, how can I suspect you are unfaithful to the Tang Dynasty? Don't say it's a country. If my flesh and blood can be exchanged for the people of the world for ten years of happiness, I am willing."
Feng Ann raised his head, the blood had dyed his face red, and he cried.
"Feng Ang was lucky enough to be His Majesty's minister."
