Chapter 904 Today: I have been silently paying attention
The actions of the Founding Group have naturally aroused today's curiosity.
There is no doubt that when the Daqian Dynasty was at its peak, the emperor or the royal family's control over the capital was absolutely tighter than imagined.
Without such control, I am afraid that Daqian would no longer be prosperous and prosperous long ago.
The palace coup in the late Emperor's reign had a rather bad start.
The nobles held real military power in their hands, and the princes each regarded their brothers as a thorn in their flesh, thinking in their minds how to physically destroy their opponents.
Under such circumstances, if the control of the capital is not strict today, big troubles will occur, and you may have to pay the price with your life to warn future generations.
The founding group's influence in the military is deep-rooted, and the rise of Taizong Xinxun's group will not easily shake the fundamental interests.
Therefore, special attention is warranted.
"Oh, the founding family sent representatives to Jinmen to investigate the fishing of marine fish in the offshore waters?"
I feel very strange now, I feel like I have heard a joke.
Dai Quan, however, had a serious face and reported seriously: "Your Majesty, the cause of the matter is that the Jia family's cafeteria began to supply a large amount of fresh sea fish and meat!"
"There are more than 200 students in Jia Family School, and they are all middle-aged, and all of them can eat well!"
"The Ethnic Studies Canteen suddenly provided an unlimited supply of fish and meat, which naturally caused a sensation among the students, and then the news spread back to everyone!"
"Oh, I see!"
Jin Jin nodded to express his understanding and chuckled: "Jia Rong is willing to do so!"
Dai Quan said softly: "The main reason is that the harvest from offshore fishing is too rich, enough for General Jia to squander it like this!"
"Oh, is it possible that the fish in the sea are so easy to catch?"
Now I shake my head slightly, not believing this at all.
"I don't know what I'm doing!"
Dai Quan shook his head and said: "I just know that sea fish are huge, one of them can be compared to six or seven river fish!"
"Oh I got it!"
Now it suddenly dawns on me that even if the harvest from offshore fishing is mediocre, as long as a few sea fish can be caught correctly, it will be enough to supply the canteen of Jia Bao Clan School.
"In this way, the Jia Family School Canteen can provide a sufficient amount of fish for every meal. It is really not easy!"
Now I am mumbling to myself, but the meaning is unclear in my eyes.
Dai Quan stood bowed and silent, playing the role of a listener just right.
"What about the other noble families? Do they also plan to expand their clan schools?"
After pondering for a moment, he suddenly asked.
"That's not true!"
Dai Quan replied: "But with enough sea fish, whether it is selling them directly for money, or providing enough meat for the tribe, it is a good choice!"
Speaking of this, Dai Quan showed a faint smile on his face.
Don't say that the noble family has poor relatives, even the royal family has no shortage of poor relatives.
Of course, every time the poor relatives of the royal family came to ask for something much more precious.
"Even if these noble families want to fish offshore, they don't need to buy offshore boats in a big way, right?"
This is what we are most concerned about today. The transportation capabilities of offshore ships are not weak.
"Your Majesty, Jia Rong said this when he communicated with his slaves in the past!"
After quietly glancing at the current expression, Dai Quan said cautiously: "He said he didn't know what was going on. Offshore shipping obviously has considerable advantages, but it has not been fully developed!"
"According to him, if a ship of southern specialties is transported to the north for sale by sea ship, the profit will at least be doubled!"
"The profits are about the same when transporting specialties from the north to the south!"
"If it is transported by water, there will be too many people and yamen handling it!"
"It may seem like the price is high, but in fact, the profit that the owner can reap is quite good if it has three achievements!"
"The price difference between sea transport and water transport is quite large. I wonder why those businessmen with a keen sense of smell have not increased their investment in sea transport?"
After saying this, Dai Quan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He felt that he didn't take so much money from Jia Rong in vain. Is he still very honest?
"Oh, is sea transportation really so cheaper than water transportation?"
Today, he smiled and asked: "How come I haven't heard of such a statement?"
The cold sweat on Dai Quan's forehead started to flow down instantly.
He did not panic, and chuckled: "It should be that water transportation is safer than sea transportation. After all, the sea is very rough and the weather is very unstable!"
"Is that so?"
Now he had no intention of continuing to speak. He waved his hand to let Dai Quan leave, and he fell into a long silence.
As the emperor with authority, he naturally knows more information.
During the Mongolian and Yuan Dynasties, sea transportation almost replaced the function of water transportation.
In the pre-Ming Dynasty, Emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty changed sea transportation to water transportation, which made it easier for the court to control this lifeline channel.
Until this dynasty, maritime transport was never prohibited.
Especially in the early years of the founding of the People's Republic of China, it was even very prosperous for a period of time, but then, for some unknown reason, shipping suddenly stopped.
Who is it today, who instantly sensed the conspiracy atmosphere in it.
However, even though his ancestral home is also Jinling, he currently knows very little about things in the south, especially shipping-related matters.
It's as if someone deliberately blinded his perception?
Um???
Now he suddenly opened his eyes, filled with a fierce and fierce light that could not be concealed.
It seemed that he had noticed something extraordinary!
Fortunately, after many years of forbearance, my character is very calm now, and I am not in a hurry to understand and investigate the inside story.
Since the four major families in Jinling, headed by Ningfu, are developing shipping and ocean fishing in Tianjin at this time, let's take a closer look.
In addition, the current secret agent organization naturally started certain investigations quietly.
For the emperor, it didn't matter if he didn't know some things, but once he knew it, it would be very difficult to ask him to pretend not to know.
Ordinarily, based on current understanding of Jia Rong, the head of the Ning Mansion, this person is a very flexible person with very sharp methods.
When the local forces in Jin Province were cleaned up so cleanly, this guy was behind the scenes. Hearing that he was giving advice to the founding family, he became very fierce one after another.
As a result, the local forces in Jin Province were like autumn leaves sweeping away fallen leaves, and they completely collapsed without forming much resistance.
The current people paid close attention to it at the time, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs took advantage of it, so they did not cause any resentment towards it today.
With this guy's character and skills, he has been overly cautious when it comes to Tianjin development and shipping matters. It's natural that he can't feel it now.
While I was surprised, I also naturally became vigilant. I didn't know what Jia Rong was worried about and afraid of...
