Chapter 580 The eldest grandson Wuji is in Guanzhou
Chapter 580 Changsun Wuji is in Guanzhou
Changsun Wuji looked at the map for a long time: "Everything is still speculation at the moment, but Hou Junji will definitely keep an eye on it, and it is expected that there will be specific news in a while."
After speaking, Changsun Wuji asked Su Chen: "When are you going to have a big meal?"
"I'm busy making trains, in about three months!"
"how?
Duke Zhao wants me to go early?"
Changsun Wuji said: "In the past, I wouldn't have bothered to care whether you went or not, but this time the Linghu clan rebelled..."
"I'm worried that giving this big food too much time will cause unpredictable results!"
Su Chen's eyes widened: "I only said I wanted to go to Dashi, but nothing else. Duke Zhao seemed to mean that I was going to destroy Dashi. You think too highly of me."
Changsun Wuji glared at Su Chen: "Your thoughts are not enough to satisfy me and His Majesty. With the combat power of your naval fleet, no one thinks that you will just go to Dashi for a walk."
"During this period, Your Majesty and I collected some detailed information about Dashi, especially the war between Dashi and Persia. The results shocked Your Majesty and me!"
Su Chen smiled and said nothing.
"Even if you have no plans to go to the feast, I will suggest that your Majesty expand the size of the navy and take the initiative when he returns to the court."
Su Chen was surprised at this time: "When did Zhao Guogong become so radical and more warlike than those generals?"
Changsun Wuji slapped the table: "I have seen with my own eyes the various changes your things have brought to my Datang Dynasty, and I know how terrifying they are."
"Now these things are in the hands of the Great Food Empire. Not only is this Great Food extremely expansionist, but it also hates me, the Tang Dynasty, for some reason."
"This puts me on pins and needles!"
Li Chengqian nodded and agreed very much with Changsun Wuji's words.
Su Chen said: "Things are not as bad as Zhao Guogong imagined, at least not in a short period of time."
"I'm not as confident as you, and I guess that Your Majesty can't sleep at night now!"
Changsun Wuji continued: "If I predict correctly, Your Majesty's flanking document will be here soon."
Su Chen smiled: "Then just wait, I will persuade your Majesty, everything is not that bad,"
"Even if the Linghu family writes all the good things about my Tang Dynasty into books and draws them into albums and sends them to Dashi, they will have to spend at least three times more time if they want to achieve the achievements of my Datang Dynasty."
Seeing Su Chen's confidence, Changsun Wuji took a sip of tea and said, "I hope what you said is true."
"Don't worry! Some things can't be solved with just a few drawings."
During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the technology of the Celestial Dynasty was already leading the world. Although Dashi was powerful, it was based on nomadism and had just been unified. Many basic conditions were not comparable to those of the Tang Dynasty.
Besides, without someone like Su Chen who could systematically travel by his side, they would still have to figure it out for a while with only those half-understood books and atlases.
Besides, how many people in Dashi can understand Chinese!!
Thinking of this, Su Chen thought of that weirdo, Prime Minister Dashi. Isn't that guy also a time traveler?
If so, that would be troublesome. Even if he doesn't have a system, he can quickly turn what Linghu brings into productivity.
Su Chen suddenly became less confident again!
Seeing both Sun Wuji and Li Chengqian staring at him, Su Chen realized that he had just been distracted!
"Um, Duke Zhao, His Majesty sent you here not just to take a look at the half-finished locomotive, right?"
Changsun Wuji did not hide anything, and said bluntly: "Your Majesty and the courtiers got rid of me and came to see how you are governing Guanzhou?"
"Next, I plan to walk around Guanzhou. I hope Governor Su won't be offended."
Su Chen said it didn't matter: "Mr. Zhao, please take a closer look!"
"I also hope that Duke Zhao will give a good lecture to His Majesty and the ministers after he returns to the court, especially Wen Yanbo, Kong Yingda, Yan Shigu and others. Let them be disappointed. Guanzhou is not in chaos and the people are in dire straits."
Changsun Wuji sneered: "Don't rely on the imperial court's aid if you can. Without the imperial court's food, you, Guanzhou, would have starved to death thousands of miles ago."
Su Chen was anxious: "The people of Guanzhou earn their rations with their own hands. Go back and ask His Majesty and the Prime Minister to settle last month's steel payment. Those who purchased Guanzhou's rations for a year will have enough."
"
Changsun Wuji did not continue to argue with Su Chen, but waved and left.
In the next few days, Changsun Wuji was really serious and responsible.
From coal to coal mines, iron mines, limestone mines, fluorite mines... there is no place he would not go to.
Mining, mineral processing, iron smelting, steel making... there is nothing he doesn't care about.
What's even more outrageous is that he even disguised himself and went to ask questions to the craftsmen and miners.
This made everyone in the Dudu's Mansion and the Governor's Mansion tremble with fear. They thought Changsun Wuji was here specifically to find evidence against Guanzhou!
Su Chen lamented that it would be a pity not to become a spy!
Finally, this old bastard finished visiting factories and mines, and then started shopping again!
He patronizes street stalls and high-end stores!
Then he got embarrassed:
He met Changle!
Changle was at a stall selling kites and looked at Changsun Wuji with wide eyes in disbelief:
"uncle?
What are you doing?
Why are you dressed like this?"
Changsun Wuji, who was dressed in commoner clothes, blushed as red as a monkey's butt!
Just when I was about to think of an excuse to cover it up, I heard another crisp voice:
"Sister! Sister! There is no Phoenix there on West Street. I bought one..."
Si'er ran over holding a big butterfly kite.
"Yeah! Uncle?
…You also buy a kite?”
"Ah!...Yes!...Bring some local specialties from Guanzhou back to your cousins...You should also go back early!"
Changsun Wuji picked up a kite, threw a few coins to the boss, turned around and left!
"Uncle is so strange. He even wears strange clothes."
Si'er looked at Changsun Wuji's back and said.
"Hmph! Everyone in the governor's office said that Duke Zhao Guogong was in disguise all day long in order to find an excuse for Brother Su Chen. Didn't you expect it to be true?"
Changle angrily went back to find Su Chen and told him about Changsun Wuji's shameless behavior.
Su Chen was also very happy after hearing this: "This cannot be completely blamed on Changsun Wuji, it is the task given to him by His Majesty!"
"Dad, how is it possible? How could dad let him deliberately look for brother Su Chen?"
"He is not deliberately trying to catch me. Your Majesty wants him to know more about the current situation in Guanzhou. I guess the Prime Minister and other ministers also have this intention.
Su Chen smiled and said: "I just didn't expect him to do it so thoroughly! He doesn't even have the old face anymore, he disguises himself every day and goes out to chat with craftsmen, miners, and street vendors!"
"It's not just him, haven't you seen that Cheng Qian also leaves early and comes home late these days?"
Changle said angrily: "What on earth do they want to do?"
"Your Majesty and the ministers are curious about everything in Guanzhou. Others don't dare to come, so they have to throw Changsun Wuji over. Knowing that I won't do anything to him for your sake!"
