Chapter 3 Zhen's

Lin Fu signed the "Huaidong Zhizhi Envoy Prohibition of Commercial and Civilian Trade, Fishing and Hunting in the Eastern Ocean" on the corner table next to the crib, using Huaidong's own charcoal pen.

Unlike when Lin Fu first used a burnt wooden stick as a charcoal pencil, the charcoal pencil Lin Fu used at this time can be called a real pencil. It was glued together with two wooden sticks with grooves in the middle to form a pencil.

A wooden pen with a hole in the center. Ink glue mixed with pine smoke and other substances is poured into the hole and dried in the shade to solidify to make charcoal.

Compared with pencils with graphite powder cores, charcoal pens made by Huaidong are more primitive and crude, and the cost is much higher. However, compared with the traditional writing method of writing with a brush and inkstone, charcoal pens are much simpler and require more

Much cheaper. However, compared to the pencils of later generations, the charcoal pencils produced by Huaidong have a refill made of glue ink, which is not easy to wipe.

For the craftsmen who needed to draw pictures at this time, the invention of charcoal was even more good news.

What is good above will be replicated below!

Although many of Lin Fu's actions are so deviant and unforgivable in the eyes of others, within the Huaidong Military Division and in the various schools run by the Huaidong Military Division, charcoal pens and writing pens are

It is very convenient to promote it.

Although Lin Mengde, Qin Chengzu and others were still accustomed to writing with brushes, they were accustomed to or had long agreed with Lin Fu's pursuit of "effective, fast, and cheap" and were easily able to accept new things that appeared to reflect this purpose.

When Huaidong was founded, Lin Fu also tried his best to appoint and promote officials and generals who had a sense of identity with Huaidong. In addition to interests, a sense of identity and a sense of belonging were the basis for cohesion.

This sea ban is not only effective for the coastal areas of Huaidong, but also is notified to Yudong, Haiyu, Jinhu, Jiashan, Hangzhou and other prefectures and counties, as well as Prince Ning's Mansion, the Governor's Mansion, and the Military Intelligence Department. A total of dozens of copies were printed. Lin Fu

Must sign one by one.

Lin Fu signed while Song Jia helped stamp the seal, and then had to stamp it with the bronze seal of the Huaidong Army Division before it became official.

Qin Chengzu leaned over and happily teased the baby on the crib with his long frost-white beard. Juan'er stood aside awkwardly, not knowing how to deal with this scene.

While Song Jia helped seal the seal, she thought to herself: Who would have thought that such an important letter would be signed in the baby's room. Neither Lin Fu nor Qin Chengzu could tell that they were going to fight.

.

"My lord, it's true. The building of a new ship in Huaidong is such an important matter, how can we just give it a name casually?"

Song Jia heard Gu Junxun, who had just completed his confinement, talking to others outside the door. Apparently, he had just learned that Lin Fu named the new trial ship after his eldest daughter's maiden name.

Then Gu Yingxiu's voice came in: "I heard that Mr. Sun and Mr. Hu were present. I was surprised. Why did they indulge him without trying to persuade him?" Then he smiled and said, "But this girl is really good.

Good luck, I will also be a pampered master in the future!"

While talking, Gu Yingxiu and Gu Junxun opened the door and walked in. They first saw Lin Fu sitting in the corner signing documents. Gu Yingxiu asked, "Why are you here all the time?" Gu Junxun complained, "

There is no reason to write a girl's maiden name on the bow of the boat. Huaidong is not popular in the eyes of others, and I don't know how much gossip he will cause!" After complaining, he saw Qin Chengzu standing there.

Playing with the baby in the corner, he hurriedly bowed and said, "Mr. Qin is here too! I have met Mr. Qin."

Qin Chengzu said with a smile: "Your Majesty loves the little lady, and giving the new ship her name is also a way of placing high hopes on the new ship..." He gave Gu Junxun a gift in return, and the baby was handed over to Juan'er to take care of.

Gu Junxun only saw Song Jia present, so she spoke more casually. When Qin Chengzu said this, her face turned red and she felt that what she had just said was too inappropriate.

Gu Yingxiu stood aside and saluted Qin Chengzu without saying anything.

There is nothing disharmonious in this inner house. Liu Yue'er is also easy to get along with. Xiaoman is suppressed by Su Mei, so he can't stir up any trouble. It's just that Gu Junxun gave birth to a daughter for the first time. It's hard to guarantee that some people don't know the importance of it and have a problem in their hearts.

What a delusion, but it is a troublesome thing.

Lin Fu gave the new ship his newborn daughter's maiden name, which undoubtedly showed his attitude and saved him some trouble.

Lin Fu handed the signed notice to Qin Chengzu and said to Xun Niang, Yingxiu: "After signing this notice, I will go to Shengsi tomorrow, and I need you to take more care of me at home!" He did not explain why he wanted to take his daughter.

His maiden name was given to the new ship. The supremacy of men over women is the most stubborn tradition in the patriarchal society. No matter how deviant he is, he can only make small moves quietly.

Qin Chengzu, Sun Jingxuan, and Hu Zhiyong did not object. Their thoughts were on the name of the ship "Little Princess" that could not be revealed to others.

"You have to leave again so soon?" Gu Junxun asked in surprise. She kept her duties as a woman and did not ask about military affairs. In recent years, she felt that the situation was getting tighter and war was about to start again, but she did not expect that it would happen so soon. Lin

It has only been a month since Fu returned to Chongzhou to rest. She always thought that even if a war was to start, it would have to wait until the autumn grain harvest was over.

"There is no way, everything can't go according to our rhythm!" Lin Fu said, and then said to Qin Chengzu, "When you go to see the Zhen family's special envoy later, invite him to come to the mountain for a glass of water and wine.

I won’t send someone specially to invite you.”

"Okay." Qin Chengzu responded before saying goodbye and leaving.

*************

When Zhen Feng and 3,000 Haiyang County soldiers were released to Goryeo by Lin Fu, it was destined that the mutual suspicion and estrangement between the Zhen family and the Goryeo authorities Zuo Jing and others could not be eliminated.

In order to prevent the peninsula from falling into turmoil, Zuo Jing chose to be patient and restored Zhen Feng to his position as governor of Haiyang County under the suppression of the Donghu people. However, he continued to send additional troops to the north of Haiyang County and Shannan County to the east to guard against Zhen Feng.

What will happen?

Zhen Feng was also caught in a fight. The cruelty and bloody political struggle made him dare not give up his vigilance, nor did he dare to hope for the possibility of reconciliation with Zuo Jing and other people in power.

During this period of time, there were many internal conflicts in Goryeo. The people in power headed by Zuo Jing bowed to the Donghu people and squeezed the country desperately to meet the various demanding demands of the Donghu people. This caused widespread dissatisfaction among the people and frequent small-scale unrest.

Although several turmoils were quickly calmed down, Zhen Feng saw an opportunity to replace them.

The Zhen family must first segregate Haiyang and become independent, and then they can talk about replacing the Goryeo royal family to rule the Goryeo Peninsula.

Although Haiyang is the county with the most Dingkou in Goryeo, Haiyang County suffered a severe setback due to the defeat of Seogwipo. Although 3,000 county soldiers were released by Lin Fu along with Zhen Feng, Lin Fu could only destroy them.

The remnants of guns and spears brought back to the country are not as good as the excellent soldiers and armor. If the Zhen family wants to separatize Haiyang and become independent, they first need a large number of soldiers and armor to equip the Haiyang County soldiers who are loyal to Zhen family. The size of the county soldiers will continue to grow.

expand.

Like the Saga clan and the Kingo clan of Kitakyushu Island, the Chi clan of Dongzhou Dudufu, and the Li clan of Danluo Island, seeking support from Huaidong became the Zhen clan's only choice.

Haidong Xingying could not make up its mind about the cooperation with the Zhen family, so Zhen Feng sent his second son Zhen Mingshi to Huaidong secretly to discuss the cooperation between the two companies directly with the Huaidong Military Division.

The situation in Haiyang County is similar to that of Huaidong. Most of the territory is an offshore plain with fertile land, numerous settlements, and lack of coal, iron and other materials. Although the degree of land development in Haiyang County is far less than that of Pingjiang Prefecture and Weiyang Prefecture, it is better than that of Huaiyang Prefecture.

Dongfang is also worse, but it is a core grain-producing area in Goryeo.

Humans, food and iron are the three most important resources in today's wars.

Haiyang County has a population of 600,000, accounting for almost 20% of the nine counties of Goryeo. It produces a lot of grain, but is short of iron. In the Haidong trade route dominated by Huaidong, the coal and iron resources of Honshu Island and Kyushu Island

Naturally, it will flow into Huaidong first, and Haiyang also lacks the ability to refine coal and iron into fine armor. Therefore, the Zhen family urgently needs to purchase a large amount of fine armor from Huaidong.

By cooperating with the Zhen family, Huaidong can obtain the rice that Huaidong is in short supply from Haiyang. Rather than importing a large amount of rice from Haiyang, Lin Fu hopes to see the Zhen family seek independence in Haiyang and weaken the power of the Goryeo royal family.

At the same time, it can also contain more military power of the Koryo Kingdom and weaken the harassment of the Koryo navy to the Tianjin-Hai grain route.

Naturally, the two sides hit it off immediately and immediately signed a secret agreement to exchange 300,000 stone and rice for ten battalions of infantry armor.

Zhen hoped that Huaidong could deliver the armor to Haiyang in advance, and Lin Fu agreed in a nice manner.

Three hundred thousand stones of japonica rice was more than the taxes paid to the Goryeo royal family by the entire Haiyang County. The Zhen family would only have the confidence to openly intercept the taxes and keep them for their own use if they had enough fighting power to support them.

Zhen Mingshi, the second son of Zhen Feng, and his generals secretly stayed in Chongzhou as special envoys to promote cooperation between the two parties; they also had the intention of staying in Chongzhou as hostages.

Based on Haiyang's 300,000 stone grains, Lin Fu estimated that he could transport 600,000 to 800,000 stone grains from Haidong every year to make up for the shortage in Huaidong.

Of course, in order to transport so much rice and grain from the Haidong region, Huaidong cannot rob it in vain.

For others, a large amount of resources of equivalent value must be exchanged.

Although Huaidong's armor is good, its output is limited, and more needs to be ensured by the Huaidong Military Division's own needs. Raw silk, tea, cane sugar and porcelain are all abundant in Huaidong but scarce in Haidong, and are sought after by the upper class.

Materials.

However, there are only more than 10 million Dingkou in the entire Haidong region, and the market capacity is limited. Only by cutting off trade can higher profits be obtained.

Even if it is to monopolize trade with the Haidong region, Huaidong must impose a cruel and bloody seal on navigation in the East China Sea in the near future to eliminate the possibility of Zhejiang and Fujian merchants going to sea.

If the She family can be completely sealed inland, Huaidong's ships will be able to extend to Yizhou, Liuqiu and Nanyang areas, and will be able to obtain more abundant resources.

After all, the resources in the Huaidong area are too scarce.

It was precisely because of Haiyang's 300,000 kilograms of rice and grain that Lin Fu had the confidence to start a cruel and bloody military competition with the She family in the East China Sea!
