Chapter Five Hundred and Fifty First Ship's Thoughts
What kind of person is Yang Kailue? This is difficult to define.
Sleek and sophisticated, or cautious and timid? It seems both are right!
But after Xiao Han carefully studied his various deeds, he added one more thing behind them, that is, this landlord did not seem to be a bad person at heart.
And this, this is enough for Xiao Han!
Ability, vision, these can be cultivated later! But nature, hey, isn't there an old saying: A country is easy to change, but a character is hard to change?
Xiao Han was still sighing, but there was strangely no sound from the other side.
For others, this is no less than a pie falling from the sky, something that needs to be caught in a hurry! When Yang Kailue arrived, he was uncharacteristically hesitant!
"Master Hou, can you tell me why you chose me?" After struggling in his mind for a long time, Yang Kailue finally plucked up the courage to ask this question that was most difficult for him.
Although Yang Kailue looks a little silly, he is definitely not stupid!
Just now, he could roughly guess what Xiao Han needed him to do from what Xiao Han said to Lao Jiang.
However, Yang Kailue has a rare self-awareness: up to now, it can be said that he has nothing outstanding! Why can the Marquis choose him? Even if Xiao Han is Bole, Yang Kailue has never regarded himself as a thousand-mile horse.
!
Hearing that Yang Kai slightly did not agree, but asked himself for the reason first, Xiao Han couldn't help but asked a little strangely: "Isn't it a good thing to follow me? Why didn't you agree first?"
Yang Kai glanced at Xiao Han briefly and said in a low voice: "It's a good thing, but good things are often hot. I just want to understand the matter first before making a decision."
Xiao Han was stunned, then laughed out loud, almost crying: "Hahahaha... Yang Kailue, I really saw you right! If you just agreed without asking anything, then I would have to reconsider whether to use you or not.
!”
"Why is this?" Yang Kai scratched his head and asked.
Xiao Han struggled to stop his laughter, pointed at Lao Jiang, who was still standing there like a piece of wood, and said: "Because I need someone who is more cautious and tactful now! For a guy like Lao Jiang, you let him go
There is absolutely nothing wrong with what he does when it comes to working or studying things! But if you ask him to be an official, manage others, or coordinate things, it will be a disaster!"
Yang Kai nodded slightly, he recognized what Xiao Han said, but it was a bit unbearable to say about himself...
Xiao Han didn't look at Yang Kailue, cleared his throat and continued: "To be honest, I didn't open this dock just for fun! Now the conditions don't allow it, so I can only keep everything simple, but when things in the south are decided in the future, this dock
It will naturally develop wherever it goes.
When that time comes, the shipyard itself will have countless craftsmen and various people who serve it! Let people like Lao Jiang take care of it? Shouldn't you let him get half angry and punish him with 30%? So, I want to
Choose someone who is more tactful and cautious to partner with him and act as a lubrication and conditioning agent!"
"Am I that person?" After Xiao Han finished speaking, Yang Kailuo immediately asked with a slightly trembling voice.
Xiao Han nodded lightly at him and said slowly: "Yes for the time being, but if I find that you are unqualified, someone will naturally replace you! So you can also think about it, do you believe me and try hard? Or continue.
Let’s live a stable life by guarding the little bit of land left by our ancestors.”
After saying that, Xiao Han stood up with his hands behind his back, but this time Yang Kailue did not hesitate at all and knelt down on one knee: "I am willing to follow the Marquis!"
Xiao Han glanced at Yang Kailue on the ground, with an imperceptible smile on his lips.
Pulling him up from the ground and patting him on the shoulder, Xiao Han smiled and said to him: "Okay, from now on we are a family! I will leave the matter of the dock to you and Lao Jiang for the time being.
! Please discuss it and report to me the specific plan and required money, land, and manpower in two days!"
"Yes!" At this moment, the eyes of this smooth and lazy fat man finally showed a hint of gratitude and tenacity. Xiao Han also saw this, but said nothing more.
By the river, ever since Xiao Han was talking to Lao Jiang and Yang Kailue, Xiaodong and Lengzi had pulled the Yang family servants away from each other. When Yang Kailuo knelt down to Xiao Han to express his loyalty, they always paid attention to everyone here.
arrive.
Seeing the master of the house kneeling before the young marquis, several of the personal servants couldn't help but open their eyes wide! Especially the bald ones, their eyeballs almost fell out. It took them a long time to turn around, and relying on the friendship they had been beaten, they whispered
asked Xiaodong on the side:
"Hey? Little brother, what's wrong with my master?"
Xiaodong folded his arms and glanced sideways at the bald head: "Hmph, it's probably because our Lord Marquis has caught something by the tail again, and he's just accepting his punishment!"
"Ah?" The bald head was startled. He touched Guang Guang's head subconsciously and cried secretly in his heart: "Oh my god, wouldn't that mean I'm going to get beaten again? No way! I still need to find a way to make this hair grow out."
Beat it gently! I must try the method Liu's wife said tonight. If it doesn't work, I will have a bump on my head, so I have to let your husband wear a colored hat!"
The servants of the Yang family in the distance were all surprised and whispering.
However, Xiao Han and Yang Kailue had finished their conversation and began to board the ship one after another. Now that they were here, they wanted to see what this Sui and Tang Dynasty ship looked like.
Climbing up the ladder to the deck, Xiao Han stamped his feet vigorously. He felt that the big ship under his feet was as stable as flat ground in this kind of river, and he could not feel any shaking!
Nodding with satisfaction, Xiao Han looked around the deck.
The deck was a bit messy, with various tools and wood scattered everywhere. It seems that Lao Jiang led the men to mess around with it while repairing the ship, but he didn't know how to clean it up.
After kicking away a carpenter's plane, Xiao Han walked a few steps with his hands behind his back, creating a world of wood on this big ship!
As far as you can see, all the houses and ship sides are made of different materials of wood! And if you look closely, you will find that there are no nails between them, they are all connected with ancient tenons!
"Master Marquis, this is an old ship, but it has been well maintained, so as long as it is repaired, it will be fine for combat and transportation."
Just as Xiao Han was marveling, Lao Jiang's voice came from behind. I don't know when he calmed down and got on the boat.
Xiao Han didn't feel strange when he heard the sound. He just tried his best to raise his head, looked at the three-story ship building above his head, and murmured: "Awesome! You can build such a big ship with only wood. I don't know that Yang Guang can build such a big ship."
How big must the dragon boat be! How spectacular must it be!”
Lao Jiang came behind Xiao Han and couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard his words: "Master Hou, the dragon boat was built with all the efforts of the world. It is incomparable with these! But we have built a sea-going ship, which is twenty-one feet long."
, with a carrying capacity of more than 10,000 stones and a crew of nearly 1,000 people. The navy they once defeated during the expedition to Goguryeo fled and did not even dare to enter the water!"
