While Yang Fan was cleaning up the loot on Tsushima Island, Chongzhen in the Qianqing Palace was giving Luo Yangxing face-to-face instructions.
"Have all the troops I asked you to ambush in Weihaiwei last year are ready?" Chongzhen asked.
"To answer your Majesty's question, last year I mobilized manpower from various places and selected 3,000 good men with 500 Rumi guns and 50 Fran machine guns to lurk in the Weihaiwei area, disguised as fishermen, waiting for His Majesty's orders. ." Luo Yangxing said.
He didn't know what Chongzhen was going to do. There must be something big going on by mobilizing so many royal guards.
"Well, if this matter is done well, I will remember it." Chongzhen said with satisfaction: "Go to Weihaiwei in person, and I will give you the imperial edict to control the Denglai Navy. You must guard Pi Island to the death, and give you I'm keeping an eye on it."
"Your Majesty, who are you targeting and what are you targeting?" Luo Yangxing asked in confusion.
Until now, he doesn't know what His Majesty is going to do.
"Idiot, of course he is targeting Yuan Chonghuan's people. He killed Mao Wenlong and has been doing the smuggling trade on Pidao for such a long time. I don't know how much wealth he has accumulated. There are only a million taels. I guess there are two or three. million."
Luo Yangxing suddenly realized that since the end of last year, His Majesty had asked him to plant a surprise force. It turned out that Your Majesty had already known that Yuan Chonghuan was going to kill Mao Wenlong.
Thinking of this, he not only shuddered. Is Your Majesty so old and wise at such a young age?
Poor Governor Yuan, he did something that was frowned upon by the world, but in the end the benefits were cut off by His Majesty. It was true that he didn't eat the mutton, so he was all messed up.
"You patrol the sea. Once you find a fleet sailing out of Pi Island, immediately seize the ship for inspection and transport all the ships and property back to the capital. Do you understand?" Chongzhen looked at Luo Yangxing with burning eyes. said.
This idiot can't even understand this.
If it were Yang Fan, I would only say a few words, and the guy would understand everything. He shook his head helplessly. This is like a slave in the emperor's family. You can use it with confidence and it is easy to use. But this ability is much worse.
"I have made up my mind. That Nanbarbarian will definitely take his property to his hometown in Guangdong. You will cut off his beard. If something goes wrong with this matter, you will come to see me. Do you understand?" Chongzhen said fiercely. .
Now, the emperor is really scared of poverty. He wants money everywhere, but he can't change it.
The feudal officials below him didn't show any sympathy to him and made him angry to death.
Seeing Luo Yangxing go out in fear, Chongzhen sat down, picked up a cup of tea that Wang Chengen had just brewed, skimmed off the foam with the lid of a bowl, and took a sip.
The top-quality Keemun black tea was very good. He put down the tureen with satisfaction and asked seemingly unintentionally: "What is Zhang Shize doing?"
Now, the 150,000 troops in the Beijing camp are ready. The barracks have been rebuilt on the wasteland in the southeast corner of Nancheng. The prince-in-law Gong Yonggu is very clean and has not corrupted a penny. The buildings are of high quality and quantity. Chongzhen is very satisfied. He feels that the prince-in-law is a capable man. Be responsible.
"To answer your Majesty's question, Mr. Zhang has recently been staying in a brothel to support the top star of Furong House named Xiao Narcissus." Wang Chengen said with a smile.
"Humph, he is just bored and has gone to relieve his worries." Chongzhen scolded with a smile, "This guy is just a dandy. He is proficient in eating, drinking, prostitution and gambling. He was known as a great scourge in the North, and I was also the same when I was in the palace.
Like thunder piercing the ears.”
Wang Chengen laughed along with him. The British prince was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. He comes from a good family background and cannot be compared with ordinary people. Maybe he will come out of the mountain again sometime.
"What is Uncle Dingyuan doing? I haven't heard from him for a long time." Chongzhen asked suddenly. He found that since Yang Fan suppressed the riot in the capital last time, there has been no news about him.
"Well, I remembered it. Uncle Dingyuan took his wife and concubines to the sea to play. He is still on vacation, so he didn't ask for leave." Wang Chengen said after considering it.
"What, he went to sea." Chongzhen was surprised. He couldn't have really given up his job and abandoned me.
Suddenly he felt uneasy. Every time he made a mess, it was Yang Fan who stepped in to clean it up. Unknowingly, he had become dependent on Yang Fan.
When I heard that Yang Fan had gone to sea, I suddenly felt like I had lost support.
But then he thought about it, Yang Fan's huge family business was in Zunhua, how could he go there, and he would not be able to come back sooner or later after having enough fun?
"He didn't say when he would be back," Chongzhen asked.
"This old slave doesn't know. The queen sent Eunuch Shuangxi to reconcile the accounts before, and she found out that Uncle Dingyuan and his wife went to sea to play. The person who received Shuangxi was the housekeeper Mei. Mei said that she didn't know when the master would come back. This
Once we get out of the sea, it's so vast that we can't contact him."
Communications are underdeveloped in this era. On land, if you know where you are going, you can send people and even spend 600 miles to find people in a hurry. As for the sea, there is absolutely no way. There is no place to look for.
Chongzhen couldn't tell what his mood was. He suddenly felt that he had never been able to control Yang Fan. Yang Fan was always outside his power. If he was willing to deal with it, he would deal with it. If he didn't want to deal with it, you wouldn't be able to find him.
While Chongzhen was in a daze, Yang Fan and his wives had already moved into the legendary castle tower.
This white castle is very exquisite both inside and outside. The interior decoration is full of the style of the prosperous Tang Dynasty. Yang Fan and his wife were very excited to see it.
"When we leave, how about we dismantle the castle tower, transport it back to our new city, and rebuild it next to the reservoir. In the future, we can go to the waterside for vacation in the summer and live here." Yang Fan said.
There are six castles on Tsushima Island, and the other five are very small. There is only one castle tower and not much else. And the castle towers are also small, with two or three floors. Only the one in Kindai Castle is enough
Six stories high. Yang Fan plans to dismantle the others and transport them back to modern times. This one will be transported back to the new city.
"Master, I think it would be better to put it on the island than on the waterside." Xiao Niangpi said.
Yang Fan thought about it, yes, it would look better on a small island in the lake. It is also a beautiful scenery among the lakes and mountains.
"The reservoir has begun to store water. If you plan to build an island in the middle of the lake, you must quickly select a site and arrange for people to pile up the island first."
While several people were talking, Yang Fan's phone lit up. He picked it up and saw that it was Yao Guang.
Yaoguang sent a message. Where are you?
Tsushima, what's going on? Is something okay?
The whereabouts of the second gemstone have been found. It should be on an island in the Ryukyu Islands. Can you go and have a look if you have time?
Yang Fan frowned. The last time he and Xiao Niangpi found a huge pigeon blood red ruby in the palace, the ring's transmission ability was greatly improved.
This time is the second one, so you must pay attention to it. Maybe if you find it, there will be unexpected benefits.
"Master, is this Yaoguang? What's the matter?" Xiao Niangpi came over and asked.
"It's okay. Let's raid this island first tomorrow, and then I'll take you to the Ryukyu Islands to find a gem."
