Five years as county magistrate, hundreds of millions of kilograms of grain shocked Li Shimin Chapter 448 Impeachment one after another, trying to impeach the shipyard
Chapter 448 Impeachment one after another, trying to impeach the shipyard
The next day, Fang Yuan was ready to set off.
This day is also the day when the institute moves.
Early in the morning, the institute's employees arrived at the institute as usual.
This time was different from the previous work. This time they packed up their families and set off.
There are nearly a thousand people in the institute, and together with their families, the number suddenly reaches three to four thousand.
Migrating so many people is a very difficult task, and accidents may occur if you are not careful during the process.
But fortunately, Fang Yuan used a ship to move, so he didn't have to worry about anyone getting lost during the move.
"This time, we left by boat, and the boat was at the Weishui port."
"If anyone finds it too far, you can set out on a bicycle or tricycle. There are tools at the warehouse for everyone to use."
Zhou Shi said loudly.
He is the person in charge of the team and is responsible for arranging people from the institute to board the ship today.
Under Zhou Shi's arrangement, some members of the institute chose to walk without any luggage.
Those with a lot of luggage or those with children often choose tricycles or bicycles to travel.
More than 3,000 people were walking in the same direction, even though there were few people on the road, they all noticed this situation, which immediately caused a great fluctuation.
"Are they from the institute?"
"Where are all these people going?"
“I heard it’s migration, is it really true?”
Pedestrians were shocked and quickly spread the news.
In an instant, the people in Chang'an City were shocked.
In the past, three major factories were shut down, and now even the research institute has been relocated.
Was it the actions of the imperial court that chilled Fang Yuan's heart and made him never want to stay in Chang'an City again?
Soon, the dignitaries in Chang'an City also received news about the relocation of the institute.
"Why continue to migrate?"
"Didn't the emperor consecrate Su Ziqing as the second-grade Madam Haoming?"
"No, I have to go and see for myself. Maybe the emperor will send someone to stop it!"
The dignitaries in Chang'an City were also talking a lot and were restless.
Some of them went into the palace to explain the situation to the emperor, and some went directly to the Weishui port.
In fact, there is no need for them to tell Li Shimin, because Li Shimin has already received the news.
"Damn it, he didn't listen to what I said?!"
Li Shimin was so angry that two pillars of air spurted out from his nose and he clenched his fists.
"Your Majesty, the people in the institute are all talents from our country. If we don't stop them, all the talents from our Datang Dynasty will drain out!"
Changsun Wuji said anxiously.
"Nonsense!"
"They are all talents from Datang. They are not in Datang, but the research they do is also for Datang."
Li Shimin immediately looked at Changsun Wuji angrily, wishing he could kick Changsun Wuji in the feet.
It was all the machinations of your eldest son, Sun Wuji, and Gao Shilian that caused Fang Yuan to stop work and relocate now.
I thought I had given Fang Yuan compensation and he would not move, but I didn't expect him to pretend not to know. He has such a big appetite.
"Your Majesty taught you a lesson about the institute..."
Changsun Wuji said sarcastically.
But I was smiling in my heart.
He deliberately worsened the relationship between the emperor and Fang Yuan.
If Fang Yuan continues to move, the emperor will definitely be more dissatisfied with Fang Yuan.
"Go and give it away!"
Li Shimin pondered for a moment, took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice.
He said to send it, not to stop it.
Because Fang Yuan’s trip is not only to relocate the institute, but also to go to Goguryeo.
If this trip to Goguryeo goes well, Goguryeo will become a little king from now on.
If the little king cannot manage the government, Goguryeo will definitely usher in a period of decline.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Tang Dynasty cannibalized Goguryeo, Silla, Baekje, and the half-dead Japan.
This is a great initiative, so it is appropriate to give it away.
But Changsun Wuji didn't know that Fang Yuan had another purpose for his trip, and thought that Li Shimin was going to settle a score with Fang Yuan.
I immediately went there with Li Shimin full of excitement.
At this time, many ministers were waiting for the emperor's summons at the door of the imperial study.
They all wanted to persuade the emperor to stop Fang Yuan because Fang Yuan wanted to move the research institute into the palace.
"Your Majesty, I want to impeach Minister Fang!"
"This person has no heart for the Tang Dynasty and has no desire to build the country and the country. I think he should not be in an important position!"
Someone stood up to impeach Fang Yuan.
His words received a lot of support, and the officials at the door of the imperial study all agreed.
They all went to the palace to find Li Shimin to stop Fang Yuan from moving the institute, so naturally they all wanted to impeach Fang Yuan.
In fact, they were secretly arranged by Changsun Wuji and Gao Shilian to deliberately worsen the relationship between Fang Yuan and the emperor.
"I already know, let's go to the Weishui port first."
Li Shimin glanced at the dozen or so officials present and said coldly.
No matter what their motives are, Li Shimin doesn't want to talk to them at this moment.
Because Fang Yuan and the people from the institute have already boarded the ship, if they arrive late, Fang Yuan and others may have left.
In this way, Li Shimin and others rushed to the Weishui port.
On the way, some officials followed, and there were officials all the way to the Weishui port.
What made Changsun Wuji and others curious was that many people rushed to the Weishui port on the way.
It's just a relocation of the institute. Are so many people paying attention to their departure?
Soon, Changsun Wuji and others understood why so many people were rushing here.
When they arrived at the Weishui port, they saw three huge ships parked at the edge of the port.
The size of the ship was five times or even larger than the largest ship they had seen before.
Moreover, the appearance looks very much like steel, not the usual wood.
"Why is this ship so big?"
Li Shimin got off the dragon chariot and looked at the behemoth in front of him in horror.
He has never seen such a big ship!
"O minister, please see your Majesty!"
When Fang Yuan learned about Li Shimin's arrival, he personally brought people over to salute him.
"No gifts!"
"Fang Yuan, why is this ship so big?"
Li Shimin said in a deep voice.
He moved because Fang Yuan brought the institute.
But now he is even more curious about how the ship in front of him became so big.
Such a big ship is very inconvenient to control, and it is also prone to sinking and other side effects.
"I have modified this ship and made it out of steel. I call it a steel ship."
Fang Yuan explained with a smile.
"Steel ship?!"
Li Shimin murmured.
Changsun Wuji and others also had flashing eyes.
Everyone looked at the three huge ships with horror in their eyes.
Although a steel ship sounds incredible, no one thinks that it cannot be launched into the water.
Because the person who created it is Fang Yuan, it’s the research institute, it’s a place where legends can be created.
Many things in the institute are incredible, but they shock everyone every time they are launched, and they are very convenient to use.
So no one doubted whether the steel ship in front of them could be used, but thought about how powerful it was?
"Yes, almost all are made of steel."
"The main person in charge is Wang Shiyu from the Wang family."
Fang Yuan explained with a smile.
"Poetry?!"
Among the officials, Wang Gui exclaimed.
He finally understood why Wang Shiyu left early and returned late after returning from doing business abroad.
So it was meant to be such a huge thing?!
Okay, it was done so secretly, I only know it now.
It is estimated that the emperor and others only found out now and were deeply shocked by it.
"Your Majesty, uncle."
Wang Shiyu is beside Fang Yuan.
When he heard Fang Yuan mentioning himself, he immediately stood up.
She knew that Fang Yuan was giving credit to herself, and she was very grateful.
"Wang Shiyu, I ask you, what is the difference between a steel ship and an ordinary ship?"
Li Shimin nodded and asked directly.
"Big, fast and safe!"
"Obviously, it is larger than an ordinary ship, and its speed will be several times that of an ordinary ship. And the safest thing is that it will be safer to drive on the sea."
"In addition, there is another point. If it is used for fighting, it will definitely be the overlord of the ocean, the absolute overlord."
Wang Shiyu thought for a while and said.
After the steel ship was successfully launched, Wang Shiyu thought about setting off to the Western Regions.
However, after she went to Fang Yuan to explain the happy event that day, Du Miaoyan whispered something to her.
So she gave up the idea of going to the Western Regions to do business, and had other ideas, and then followed Fang Yuan to Goguryeo today.
Absolute overlord!
Li Shimin's eyes suddenly lit up.
The overall strength of the Tang Dynasty's navy was relatively weak and was no match for Goguryeo.
If the steel ship is really the overlord of the sea, it will be even easier to target these countries in the future.
And if you still have ideas in the future, other overseas countries can also go there and open up territory for the Tang Dynasty.
Similarly, the eyes of Changsun Wuji and others also lit up, and they instantly had ideas about the shipyard.
"Your Majesty, are you going with Mr. Fang on this trip?"
Changsun Wuji stood up and asked.
He remembered that the emperor just said that he was going to send Fang Yuan off.
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone looked at Changsun Wuji.
Even Fang Yuan looked at Changsun Wuji unexpectedly, feeling that Changsun Wuji was going to be a monster again.
"Well, what's wrong?"
Li Shimin looked at Changsun Wuji in surprise.
"Steel ships are the most important weapon of the country and an important weapon related to the country."
"Of course, we are very relieved that he is in the hands of Mr. Fang."
"But if Shilang Fang is not here, wouldn't such an important killing weapon be a waste?"
Changsun Wuji said loudly.
As soon as he finished speaking, some smart people understood what he meant.
"Your Majesty, I think what Changsun Shangshu said is absolutely true."
"While Minister Fang is away, I suggest that the shipyard be temporarily managed by a certain minister."
Gao Shilian also stood up and said.
For this reason, Li Shimin also understood.
Other ministers also understood it one after another, with fiery eyes.
If Wang Shiyu is right, then whoever is in charge of the shipyard will dominate the ocean in the future.
However, Li Shimin did not speak immediately, but looked at Fang Yuan, giving Fang Yuan a chance to answer.
"Changsun Shangshu is really devoted to the country, I deeply admire him!"
"But please don't worry, Your Majesty, please rest assured that the shipyard is already managed by someone."
"Qin Qiong's daughter-in-law, and Wu Ruyi, the second daughter of the late warrior Xun, will manage the shipyard's affairs during my absence in Chang'an City."
Fang Yuan looked at Changsun Wuji with a half-smile.
Good guy, he is eyeing his own product again.
But you can have what I have if you want it.
Soon you will know what consequences the three major factories will bring to you.
"It's me, Meng Lang. It turns out that Mr. Fang has already made arrangements."
Changsun Wuji was not disappointed, but slightly excited.
Whether it's Qin Qiong's daughter-in-law Lu Xia, or Wu Ruyi, the second daughter of the late warrior Xun.
The two of them had no one to rely on when they got up, so it would be unwise for the shipyard to give them control.
If Fang Yuan was not in Chang'an City, it would not be difficult for the shipyard to change ownership.
"Your Majesty, all my people are on board, and I'm ready to set off."
"Thank you Your Majesty and all the ministers for sending me off. Fang Yuan will never disappoint everyone during this trip!"
Fang Yuan took a step back and saluted Li Shimin solemnly.
Wang Shiyu also followed Fang Yuan in saluting Li Shimin.
Among them, Du Miaoyan and Su Ziqing are not here, they have already boarded the ship.
Regarding this matter, three to four thousand institute employees and their families have boarded the ship and are ready to sail at any time.
"In this case, I wish you victory!"
Li Shimin's expression remained unchanged and he nodded heavily.
He originally came with the idea of preventing Fang Yuan from leaving.
But after seeing the steel ship, Li Shimin's mind changed slightly.
In the end, Fang Yuan said thank you in front of everyone, so he stopped worrying about it.
Anyway, just because the institute is moving, it doesn’t mean that their research cannot be used in Datang.
Just like the steel ship in front of us, it needs material support from Datang. It is built in Datang. If you need to use it in the future, can Fang Yuan still provide it?
After thinking about this, Li Shimin did not force Fang Yuan to stay.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Fang Yuan saluted again.
Turn around and leave with Wang Shiyu and others.
Changsun Wuji and others looked at Fang Yuan's leaving figure with different expressions.
Woo!!!
Suddenly, three long roars sounded.
Li Shimin and others saw three steel ships slowly leaving the port.
"Awesome!"
"Steel will not sink in water!"
"Another epoch-making good thing, the institute is really amazing!"
"It's just a pity that in the future, the institute will no longer be in Chang'an City, so it will be difficult for us to see its research results."
People sighed, were excited, and sighed again and again.
Li Shimin looked at the three large steel ships slowly leaving the port, his eyes shining.
Their success in going to sea proves that Wang Shiyu is right, steel ships will become the overlord of the sea.
Then, this seemingly ordinary shipyard in front of us should be managed by the court from now on, or it can be managed indirectly.
"Where are Lu Xia and Wu Ruyi?"
Li Shimin suddenly asked.
Officials searched everywhere for the two people mentioned by Li Shimin.
But in fact, most of them don't know Lu Xia and Wu Ruyi.
"Your Majesty, we are here!"
In the crowd, two crisp voices sounded.
Soon, Lu Xia and Wu Ruyi squeezed out of the crowd and appeared in front of Li Shimin and others.
"Take me to visit the shipyard."
Li Shimin said calmly.
You’ve come, you can’t leave without taking a look.
An existence that can create a maritime overlord cannot be missed.
After saying this, Changsun Wuji and others also expressed that they also wanted to visit.
"Your Majesty, ministers, please wait a moment."
"My brother will show you later why steel ships are the masters of the sea."
Lu Xia pointed at the three steel ships in the distance and smiled calmly.
Li Shimin and others suddenly became more confused and looked expectantly at the three large steel ships that had already left the port for some distance.
