In the Tianshu Hall of Chang'an City, regarding matters related to trade routes, people are also coming from thousands of miles away to communicate with Lou Yu, who is in charge of this matter.
"As for China and Turkey, are the people from Qian Dynasty and Ning Dynasty responsible?"
After Lou Ning left office, Jiang Chong, who temporarily acted as Beimang's affairs manager, came to Tianshu Hall again.
He is a powerful person recommended by Lou Ning. When Lou Ning was appointed as the Protector of Beimang, he was the first local expert in Beimang to turn to Lou Ning.
He was a capable person and gained Lou Ning's trust and became his right-hand man.
Lou Yu was also very familiar with Jiang Chong and often interacted with them.
"Yes, so Beimang must also decide on a candidate as soon as possible." Lou Yu said quietly: "This is a major matter that His Majesty will personally take care of. No one can be careless."
She knew that Jiang Chong could distinguish the important from the important, but the matter was so important that she still had to give her a warning at this time.
Beimang was conquered by Xian Kaiyang in the past, and Su Po successively raided it, and the major local forces were almost wiped out.
Now that it belongs to Chang'an, everything has to start from scratch.
When Lou Ning was in charge of Beimang, there were cronies who went with him from Central China, as well as forces promoted and supported from Beimang.
These people have become the new rich in Beimang today.
The opening of the cross-sea trade route this time was naturally scrambled by countless people.
Lou Yu and Jiang Chong also had to think hard about who to choose among them.
Although there is a difference between intimacy and distance, in this matter, getting things done must be the first priority no matter what, and there must be no sloppiness in any favor.
Otherwise, everyone will have to walk around without food.
As for China-Earth, there is not much suspense.
The northern part of Central China was dominated by the Qian Dynasty and the Ning Dynasty.
In the process of Chang'an's conquest of Middle-earth, both the Daqian Dynasty and the Daning Dynasty suffered heavy losses and were almost destroyed.
But there was Song Bai in the Qian Dynasty, and Han Xiao in the Ning Dynasty.
They helped their respective countries and retained the last bit of vitality.
Although it is difficult to recreate the heyday of the past, as local leaders in their respective regions, they are still very competitive in many aspects.
For example, they won over the responsibility for the trade route this time.
This may be their hope for a comeback.
Of course, everything was re-emerged under the control of Chang'an City.
Nowadays, the Song and Han families do not dare to have any second thoughts.
"Actually, I have several choices here. I would like to ask the eldest princess to take a look at them."
Jiang Chong took out a page of paper and pushed it in front of Lou Yu: "Please help the eldest princess get a charter."
Lou Yu took it over and looked at it. There were seven or eight names on it.
She put the paper down and pointed four times on it: "These are for consideration. You can pick them up yourself and submit them."
When Lou Ning was appointed the Protector of Beimang, Lou Yu went north with his brother, so he knew the current situation in Beimang very well.
The list handed over by Jiang Chong is generally reliable.
Of course, in order to give Lou Yu a choice, there must be a few people on this list who are specially chosen to accompany them, and Lou Yu can naturally see the secret.
"Yes, I understand." Jiang Chong took the paper back, chatted with Lou Yu for a few more words, and then left.
He returned to Beimang to settle the matter as soon as possible.
After Jiang Chong left, other people asked to meet him, and Lou Yu agreed.
Then I saw three men, old and young, coming in together.
"Director Li, Head of the Wei family, Mr. Tang." Lou Yu nodded slightly.
Those who come are all under the rule of Dongjiang.
The young man is Li Qiong, who was originally from the royal family of the Eastern Tang Dynasty and is now in charge of the Chu region in Eastern Xinjiang.
The middle-aged man was the former secret guard commander of the Western Chu Dynasty, and is now in Tangze, also in the Chu region.
The last old man is Wei Chong, the head of the Wei family in the Jin region of Eastern Xinjiang.
The three of them came to greet Lou Yu one after another.
Lou Yu was born in the Middle Earth, and he didn't attach much importance to Eastern Xinjiang, which was relatively barren and had few experts.
But firstly, it is the land of His Majesty Longxing, and secondly, now that I have taken up a post in Tianshu Hall, I govern the land of Chang'an, so I have to adjust my mentality and have a bowl of water.
Therefore, she was not scornful towards Li Qiong and others: "The three of you came to visit today. I don't know why?"
"Mrs. Wang, I took the liberty of visiting you today. It is an unkind invitation. Please don't blame me, madam."
Lou Yu's husband's family name was Wang, and Wei Chong called him by this name: "The land of Jin and Chu in eastern Xinjiang are both close to the sea. I wonder if there is a chance to open up a trade route with China?"
Lou Yu smiled slightly: "Of course."
She guessed that the three people in front of her came here for this matter.
The trade between China and Eastern Xinjiang was the first to take off, and now it is necessary to vigorously develop it.
When Chang'an City entered the Central Plains, there were masters from Eastern Xinjiang who were willing to serve as vanguards and charge forward.
In addition to Xiuyuan Academy, others such as the Huanglei Sect, Wutian Peak, Dahe Longmen, Fulu Palace, the Chen Family of Chen Di, the Nanshan Sect of Liang Di, etc., all followed the city of Chang'an to establish a foothold in China.
.
Now that China and Eastern Xinjiang face each other across the sea and have well-connected trade routes, these forces, plus the original Long family from China, have naturally become the main responsible persons.
Especially the Huanglei Sect, which occupies the eastern and western borders of Xinjiang and faces the Central Plains, takes advantage of them.
When Li Qiong, Tang Ze, Wei Chong and others saw it, they were naturally greedy.
Especially Li Qiong and Tang Ze who are in the Chu region. From a geographical point of view, the conditions in the Chu region are the same as those in the Zhou region, but now they are being taken advantage of by the Huanglei sect in the Zhou region. Of course they are enthusiastic.
Although Li Qiong was born in the Tang Dynasty, he now presides over the Chu region and will do his best for the Chu region.
The Jin region where Wei Chong is located is located in the easternmost part of Eastern Xinjiang, but sea transportation is better than land transportation no matter how detour it is.
Chen Di, also in the east, under the leadership of the Chen family of Chen Mengyang, now has a share of the pie. Of course, Wei Chong is also moved.
In fact, there were not only the three of them, but also many people from Eastern Xinjiang, Central China or other places came to Lou Yu to seek help.
"Each family can organize a caravan to travel between continents." Lou Yu said with a smile.
Li Qiong, Tang Ze, and Wei Chong all secretly smiled bitterly: "Of course this is good, but..."
Chang'an City wants to strengthen communication between the five borders by opening up trade routes. Naturally, it is impossible to issue licenses to only a few companies to allow them to go to the sea. Instead, it encourages the more the better.
Nowadays, the appointment of several persons in charge is mainly a matter of hosting and supervising, not just a few of them are allowed to work in the sea.
But this hosting and supervision work is undoubtedly a huge convenience for all parties to cultivate their own power.
Of course, no one dares to ruin the good things in Chang'an City because of private fighting.
But even if they just exercise their power openly and legally, it is enough for them to stand out. The strong ones are stronger, and they can stand apart from others.
Of course everyone wants to strive for such a good thing.
But now it seems there is no chance.
Li Qiong, Tang Ze, and Wei Chong all sighed.
In fact, some patterns can be seen.
Those who receive great attention and care from Chang'an will be given priority on the basis of being able to handle the matter well, and those who have made meritorious deeds will be rewarded for their merits.
Li Qiong, Wei Chong and others also made contributions, but they were mainly limited to Eastern Xinjiang.
When Chang'an marched into the Middle Earth, they were unable to contribute, so now that the interests of the vast sea beyond Eastern Xinjiang are in their sights, they could only follow Zhuo Sui of the Huanglei Sect, Chen Mengyang of the Chen Family, Li Jie of the Dahe Longmen and others.
Watching people eat meat and drink soup.
The three of them can only regret that they missed the opportunity, otherwise they might have a place today.
In the Daming Palace, Zhang Dongyun watched Li Qiong and the others leave dejectedly, and couldn't help shaking his head and laughing.
He left the matter to Lou Yu to handle, and he no longer paid attention to the details, but only paid attention to some big nodes.
In the days that followed, while City Lord Zhang was practicing his own martial arts, he watched Lou Yu and others finalize all the regulations.
Masters of real people and above from all the major sects of Taoism worked day and night to lay down one large formation after another in the deserted sea inside Dongsheng Divine Continent to calm the wind and waves.
Then in the workshop dock, a large number of sea-going ships were built and launched.
Commercial goods were exchanged between the north and the south, and then large ships set sail to the sea, sailing on the vast and desolate sea that used to block the inside and outside.
First, we will establish routes with China as the center and all directions.
Then, Beimang is the same as the Eastern Frontier, Beimang is the same as the Western Region, Southern Wilderness is the same as the Eastern Frontier, and Southern Wilderness is the same as the Western Region.
Even between the Northern Mang and the Southern Wilderness, and between the Eastern Xinjiang and the Western Regions, long-distance navigation routes were built one after another.
In the end, they were intertwined together into a huge network, covering Dongsheng Shenzhou.
By this time, about half a year had passed.
And in Zhang Dongyun's mind, the voice that he had been thinking about day and night finally sounded:
[The city owner successfully established a business network connecting the five realms, further strengthened the connections between the five realms, improved the people's livelihood in Dongsheng Shenzhou, completed the construction task 10.2, and received an upgrade experience reward of 5,000 points]
Zhang Dongyun laughed and sat back in his chair comfortably.
Normally speaking, building a huge sea-going ship, let alone whether the technology is feasible or not, even if the technical conditions can be met, it will still take many years.
But now the entire Eastern Border, Middle Earth, Northern Wilderness, Southern Wilderness, plus the east coast of the Western Region, are all within the coverage of Invincible City.
Within this coverage, he can do whatever he wants.
All the prisoners he captured before were forced to work in the newly built numerous shipyards, which accelerated the current prosperous situation.
Otherwise, how could it be possible to organize countless huge fleets and travel to and from the entire Dongsheng Shenzhou so quickly?
Now his efforts are effective, all the hard work has paid off, and he has finally completed this construction task.
Of course, this is a good thing, and he will continue to encourage the construction of distant sea trade routes instead of ignoring the task after it is completed.
However, it is still mainly the responsibility of Lou Yu and others.
City Lord Zhang’s current attention is on the new system tasks:
[Construction Task 10.3 - The coverage of Invincible City is getting wider and wider. City owners are requested to further strengthen the basic management and construction on the original basis, so that the influence of Invincible City can penetrate deeply into the fields and countryside of Dongsheng Shenzhou]
This... Zhang Dongyun laughed when he saw it.
Isn't it for the same purpose that he is working hard to build "Xingluo"?
I just never thought that I would actually encounter a system task, which really kills two birds with one stone.
However, judging from the task issued by the system, our current construction of grassroots governance is still not enough.
As the master of Invincible City, as long as City Master Zhang is willing, he can naturally know every change in every plant and tree in the city.
But if you want to complete this task, you still need to do it yourself.
The existence of Invincible City can help speed up the solution to this problem, but it cannot replace it.
Zhang Dongyun believes that his previous efforts have laid a solid foundation.
If we continue to strengthen on this basis, we should be able to reach the standard soon.
