"What's the use of singing these things? Can they make money?"
Someone couldn't help but smashed the cup, and with his loud voice, the singing and dancing suddenly stopped.
When everyone looked at him, they saw a strong man in his thirties with thick eyebrows and big eyes.
It is Jiang Chen, the second captain of the escort team of the Jiang family fleet. He is the son of the Jiang family.
"I made a mistake in my teaching. I hope you will forgive me."
The person who stood up, clasped his fists and spoke, was a capable man in his forties with a weathered look on his face.
It is Jiang Fan, the fleet's guard commander, who is a top master with superb sword skills.
"Commander!"
"You have no place to talk here, just sit down."
Jiang Chen's dissatisfied protest was obviously meant for everyone to hear, "But I'm telling the truth. This business can't be run, so why are we doing this!"
The third manager of the pier suggested, "Mrs. Feiping, I think we should discuss it first."
The third shopkeeper at the pier responded immediately, "Yes, yes, the top priority right now is shipping. If shipping stops, all business will stop."
Jiang Feiping knew that they were just pawns charging into the battle, "This matter is the emperor's order, and the whole world will be affected, not our family."
The manager of the lumberyard handed over his hand and said, "May I ask where Mr. Shan is and if you can ask him to come back and preside over it."
Jiang Feiping looked around, "My husband said when he left, I will make the decision in Hancheng."
The porcelain steward handed over his hand, "Madam, please tell me, what should we do about this matter?"
Jiang Feiping waved her hand and said: "This is the emperor's order that is announced to the world. No matter who you ask now, no one will dare to let you sail."
"Our goods can't be sold, and neither can other people's goods. It's the same for everyone."
"You are anxious, everyone is anxious, but what's the use? Can you still imitate that man from the mountain?"
"If you can't dive into the sea like a dragon, then you can just remain coiled like a snake and wait for the court to change."
"The fact that the imperial court is like this just shows that the world is unstable now."
"What we should be thinking about now is not how much money we can make next year. What we should be thinking about now is whether we can all be alive and have a family dinner together at this time next year."
"Do you understand? Still don't understand?"
"Then let me put it more bluntly. What you should do is not clamor for money, but go back and practice martial arts, train your subordinates, and then wait and see what happens."
"If something happens in the future, whether the Jiang family can survive it or not depends on you."
"If any of you are short of food, then you can pawn any valuable items at home that you like."
"If you think you can hold on to all the property and houses of the Jiang family, you can take them all."
"Say this, do you understand?"
Everyone was silent, because they had all heard the prophecies of the people in the mountains, so they all understood now that they needed to prepare for war and prepare for war.
Jiang Feiping looked at the river, "Hancheng is in an important position and will definitely be a place of battle in the future, both on land and water."
"If the Southeast King sends troops in the future, they will definitely come from the mouth of the river and the sea, and the imperial navy will definitely block them out."
"But can it be blocked? If it could be blocked, the Southeast King would not raise troops."
"When the time comes, the army will disembark from the river, and we on the river will bear the brunt."
"In the street fighting in the city, it's hard to say whether the Southeast King can capture Hancheng."
"But our industries are all on the south side of the city, docks, mines, and fields. You think about it yourself."
"Now, does anyone still want money?"
"If you have time to ask for money, why not go buy more grain and deposit it at Mrs. Dong's farm in the north of the city, so that you can be able to adapt to changes in the future."
"Based on my husband's reputation, the government will definitely not expropriate the farm in the future, so we can hope to survive this disaster."
"If you don't believe what I said, then just pretend that I didn't say it and continue to make trouble."
…
The family dinner broke up in an unhappy manner, and many people were angry because they felt they were being pressured by a woman of humble origins.
However, when news of what happened in the capital arrived at night, no one said anything anymore, as silent as a cicada!
Except for the prince's luck, all the other princes and grandsons died overnight.
Even if you are not in the capital, you can still imagine the emperor's anger.
It is also conceivable that officials and spies all over the world are worried about something happening to their subordinates and that they will vent their anger.
If they want to go overseas to do business, they are risking a knife's edge. Not only are they seeking death, but they will also drag their entire family to death.
…
The second day of junior high school, Shanjiabao.
News came from the capital, and Ouyang Wende immediately knew that he might not have time to slowly annex Shanjiabao.
Now it is time for him to seek refuge in Shanjiapu and try his best not to be annexed by Shanjiapu.
While there was a meeting in Shanjiabao, the second aunt and grandma decided that the top priority was to buy and stock up on grains to prepare for chaos in the world.
…
The other side.
After Yamazaki and Shandai's fleet drifted at sea for three days, ten large ships stopped on an isolated island with few trees.
The reason why it looks so bare, except that the trees have been cut down, is because the island is full of ores and it is difficult for vegetation to survive.
There are not only iron ores but also coal on the island. In order to cover up the smoke, the furnaces are also connected to the sea water.
The conditions on the island, how should I put it, there are houses made of ores, seafood that you can eat until you vomit, and women who are bought for them to be wives.
It’s just that the labor intensity is too high, especially day after day, and it’s too monotonous.
Then there is the lack of variety of food, especially the lack of wine, which really leaves nothing in your mouth.
Therefore, the arrival of the fleet attracted the attention of craftsmen and miners on the island. The supervisors had no way to stop it and could only let it go.
Everyone watched eagerly, waiting for the food, especially the wine.
The fleet was moving this time, and they brought a lot of wine. Although it was not enough for the two or three thousand people on board and off board to drink for thirty to fifty days, it was enough to satisfy their cravings.
…
The people below are singing and dancing there for the New Year meal, while the people above are holding meetings in the village building.
The higher-ups on the island do not recognize Yamazaki and Shandai.
They hated each other and killed Lu Tiezhang, ruining King Dongping's good deeds.
Erhen and the others folded the archway in, depriving the island of supplies.
Fortunately, there are ten large ships that can complete the task, otherwise there would have been a falling out on the spot.
But Yamazaki didn't care, and agreed to leave in the future, so he took Shandai away.
The people on the island continued to hold meetings to discuss and send the weapons out as soon as possible.
Ten large ships can transport 50,000 sets of armor at a time and equip 50,000 armored troops.
…
After leaving the village building, Qiuniang came to greet her and pass on the news. The archway was wondering whether to capture this place.
Yamazaki asked her to pass on the message. There was no need for it. It was not like everyone was going to rebel. They could just watch the fun.
When you have nothing to do, just move rocks and build a house to live in. There is no need to live together with the miners.
The first priority is to practice martial arts well so that you will be prepared for any danger in the future, so as not to be unable to fight back when officers and soldiers come.
Especially Yi Dayong, he can organize all the men on the archway, get some weapons produced on the island, and teach them how to fight in the army.
This is an isolated island in the sea, and the boats are in the hands of others. Others are not afraid that they can overturn it, so they don't care too much.
