Chang'an City.

Datang Pavilion.

The sun room on the fifth floor.

All members of the Dao League gathered again.

Pei Ji rushed back from Lingnan last night and organized the meeting as soon as he came back.

Xi Yunfei lay on the beach chair beside him, bathing in the warm sunshine of early spring.

Yue Niang, who was standing behind her, was peeling the grape skin while listening to the fierce discussions between Pei Ji and others.

"Mr., ah!"

"Aowoo... well, this is sweet."

Pei Ji's forehead bulged with blue veins and he looked back at Xi Yunfei: "Erlang, you should give me some advice."

Xi Yunfei ate the grapes, shook his head, and said, "I have no objection. That place is good, it's just right to establish the Waterworks Division."

When Wang Shou heard this, he shook his head and said, "No, no, I think Jianzhou is better. This place called Wurong is still too biased."

Xi Yunfei looked at Wang Shou with his head in a leap, "Uncle Wang may not know that this place called Wurong is not biased at all. If Chang'an is the starting point of the Silk Road on the Land, then this is the starting point of the Silk Road on the Maritime."

"Maritime Silk Road?" Everyone was stunned when they heard this.

Xi Yunfei was stunned for a moment, then looked embarrassed and said he was bald...

"Well, this is my future plan. After the Silk Road on the Land is opened, the next step is the Maritime Silk Road. This world is very big. It's just that we can't get far away from the land, and the sea will be different."

Everyone looked at each other, always thinking that Xi Yunfei had something to hide from them.

However, it is hard to ask everyone, who has no privacy or secrets yet?

Pei Ji said happily: "Then, look, Erlang also thinks it's better to establish a watercraft department here, so that's it."

Wang Shou and others look at me, and I look at you. I always feel that the place is not good and the construction cost is too high.

At this time, Changsun Wuji suddenly spoke, "Old Pei, don't know what's going on in Ryukyu?"

"In the Ryukyu side, a large number of Goguryeo slaves have been in place, and the large number of new agricultural tools provided by Langjun is probably not a big problem."

"What about Annan?" Changsun Wuji asked again.

Pei Ji glanced at him: "Good boy, this is your purpose, right?!"

Changsun Wuji smiled and did not deny it.

The Pei family in Hedong got this huge advantage. Not to mention that Changsun Wuji was jealous, who was here except Xi Yunfei?

That's the entire Indochina Peninsula, it's so cheap that the Pei family is, and many people feel unbalanced.

Pei Ji turned around and looked at Xi Yunfei. Seeing that he was eating grapes happily, he looked like he was not concerned about his own affairs, he immediately smiled bitterly.

"Okay, okay, at present, the progress is still going smoothly, especially the progress of the incorporation of indigenous people. Due to the 'natural disasters and man-made disasters', nearly 60,000 indigenous people have been gathered. It is estimated that in ten days, we will be able to launch a counterattack on several cities."

Cui Shang was stunned when he heard this: "It's so fast, it's less than half a month."

Wang Shou looked at Xi Yunfei thoughtfully, secretly sighing at Xi Yunfei's methods.

Pei Ji smiled and said, "This is actually not fast anymore. If we hadn't been to the indigenous people, we would have flattened the city covered with lumps of soil, so how could it be so troublesome?"

At this time, Xi Yunfei suddenly spoke.

He looked at Yu Shinan and asked, "Uncle Yu, have the teachers who went to Annan gathered?"

Yu Shinan nodded: "It's almost done." Then he asked in confusion: "Do you really need to provide free educational resources for those natives? I always feel that this is a problem of raising tigers. What if they turn around and bite them back?"

Xi Yunfei said 'um' before muttering: "It probably won't be."

In fact, Xi Yunfei was not sure. He learned this colonial system from the British and improved it. At that time, the San Ge was impressed by this system, and there was no reason to deal with Annan monkey and it would be invalid.

"Let's get back to the point."

Pei Ji clapped his hands, pointed to the map behind him, and said, "I believe everyone knows the purpose of establishing the Tang Dynasty Watercraft Department. Nowadays, cement roads and railways between various states are under construction in full swing, but just land transportation is not enough."

The transportation construction projects led by Xi Yunfei are all measured in years, and many of them even have cycles of more than ten or twenty years.

However, many plans of the Dao Alliance cannot be implemented until then.

Then, at this time, the shipping with the largest carrying capacity was picked up by Pei Ji.

It is definitely not enough to have a Grand Canal from the south to the north. When the food in Ryukyu matures, large quantities of grain must be transported to the north by means of sea ships and establishing a watercraft department came into being.

"I thought it was not too late to do this. Wu Rong was not far from Suzhou and Hangzhou. It took only seven or eight days to go along the coast. When you arrive at Suzhou and Hangzhou, you will go north through the canal. The river channel will lead to the west and you can go directly to Luoyang. The whole journey takes less than a month and can guarantee the quantity of freight."

When Wang Shou heard this, he looked at the others: "What do you think?"

Cui Shang and Changsun Wuji looked at each other and finally threw themselves into Xi Yunfei.

Xi Yunfei ate a grape, stood up, walked to the glass curtain wall, looked at the racetrack about to start the race, and said, "Since that's the case, then move. If there are ships, go out, and don't hide them. The rice in Ryukyu is ripe three times a year, so you don't have much time left."

With Xi Yunfei's final decision, the matter was decided.

However, the matter of the Watercraft Department cannot be separated from the supervision of the court, and Changsun Wuji and Pei Ji have to discuss with the Li family.

In the afternoon, after watching several horse races, Xi Yunfei returned to the princess's mansion.

As soon as I walked into the princess's mansion, I met someone who had been waiting for a long time.

Seeing this person, Xi Yunfei felt mixed feelings.

"Wu Xin has met the husband."

Xi Yunfei took a deep breath, waved his hand, and said, "Wu Shi, are you a governor of Jingzhou?"

The warrior lowered his head respectfully, and he believed that Xi Yunfei's status was higher than that of him.

"Mr. Lang. My family is unfortunate. Xiao Zhao is my second daughter. She was not born to her current wife, so..."

Xi Yunfei waved his hand: "I don't want to listen to your messy things, so I'll ask you, do you want this daughter? If you don't want it, just let her stay here, so as not to be kicked out again when she goes back."

The warrior was confused and looked up at Xi Yunfei, and thousands of thoughts flashed through his mind: Could it be that the husband of the Lang is interested in the photo?

It’s not impossible. Although Zhao'er is still young, she is already a beauty. Xi Yunfei is also a man, so it’s not surprising that she likes beauty.

But, how should I answer?

The warrior fell into deep thought. He remembered the explanations of the elders at home and the face of his wife. He gritted his teeth and said, "Mr. Lang, why would I not want my daughter? Don't worry, when I go back this time, I will leave the shrew!"
