Wang Wen, who is working in Wenhua Palace, is a little confused.
A Wenhua Palace clerk is still reciting: From Nanjing Wharf to Nanjing Workshop District, one can transport cargo from one million stones every day. The Sheng Ling will build the four major royal steel workshops to the terminal, build the Beijing-Nanjing Railway, and complete the second and third phases of the Nanjing-Hangzhou Railway. All departments should pay attention to their important tasks and must not neglect them.
"If you calculate from Nanjing to Beijing at this speed, it will take more than 2,000 miles, which is only a dozen hours. You can arrive in one or two nights, which is faster than the previous thousand miles. This is a step forward. Lord Wang!" Chen Xun used to be a man and said only after someone else finished speaking, but this time he spoke on his own initiative.
Wang Wen quickly stood up: "Please give me advice!"
"The advice is not enough, and this is also a blessing for me. I think the inspector needs a capable candidate, and I think that the commission will be transferred back to Li Bing. You should know that the railway uses a huge amount of silver, more than tens of millions of taels. If someone has a little thought, let alone how much silver you have been greedy for, that section of the road is not well repaired, and if you miss the state affairs, you and I have no face to treat the people of the world."
Wang Wen bowed a long time: "Mr. Chen said very well, long live to click on the official position, then the official position must be attentive."
Hu Yi laughed twice: "There are no outsiders here, so why do we all understand why we choose you? If you change someone, it is not done well, it is not done beautifully. He, Baiminghe, dared to turn against him in the hall after he came back tens of thousands of miles. This railway is the hard work of Baiminghe. He has been planning things since he entered Nanjing. I was right back then. Baiminghe is a master of humanity!"
Wang Wen was unwilling to admit it, but he had to admit that his niece was Bai Minghe's first concubine, and this identity was very special.
However, Shang Lu made a mistake: "This railway is also a national important matter. I think Bai Minghe said that he arrived at Tulupan for five days and five nights. If he really did it, then the Western Regions will be under the wall of the Ming Dynasty. There are tens of thousands of people in a car, and with the Tianyin artifact, the Ming Dynasty will be worry-free all over the world."
That being said, the railway also needs to be repaired one mile after another.
I don’t know that year after I practiced to Tulupan. But there is always one expectation that is not!
"Forget it, I'm also writing a letter to recommend Bai Chongyuan to enter the fifth rank. Lord Wang always needs a helper." Gao Gu believed that putting the Bai family in was also reasonable. Bai Chongyuan is not the kind of capable talent, but he is always a steady person. He can still be in charge of some logistics matters.
This proposal was quickly passed unanimously.
Wang Wen handed over the matter of the inspector's office that day and went to Bai's mansion in person. When he met Bai Chongyuan, they sat down and chatted. After all, this railway was done by Bai Minghe, so it was necessary to give the Bai family officials a face. Not to mention that Bai Chongyuan was Bai Minghe's second uncle, even the two people from the Bai family in the Ministry of Works of Jiangxi have also advanced to the next level.
One of them was transferred to Tianjin Wei with relevant officials from the Ministry of Works to be responsible for the railway from Tianjin Wei to Tangshan.
The telegram was sent back to Nanjing, and Zhu Qiyu thought to himself that this was the normal result. Bai Chongyuan, Zhu Qiyu, only learned about it after he took office because of Bai Minghe.
He is not a capable person. He will not achieve any great achievements in the future. Being able to become the Minister of the Six Ministry is the highest official in his life.
The current official position of Daming is either human favors or the Emperor of Daming cannot push an idiot to an important position of chief official position.
On both sides, the fleet of Baiminghe passed through the Strait of Malacca and replenished a lot of fresh water from Siam. The first slowdown of dried fruits and other things was near Ceylon Island. The fleet would continue to move forward, leaving a very fast new ship to accompany Baiminghe and dock in Ceylon.
Ceylon, I had asked the eunuch Sanbao to clean up once decades ago, and even the king was captured back to the Ming Dynasty.
Later, it was the Ming Dynasty's Emperor Chengzu's pardon and released him again.
So many years have passed, and the older generation in Ceylon still remembers the Ming fleet and the Ming people. When Baiminghe approached Ceylon Island, there was a war here, and it was in the western and central part of the island. The number of troops invested by both sides was countless. Chen Ada, who had rich experience in leading troops, told Baiminghe that the number of people invested by both sides was far more than 100,000.
"Send a boat to fire a round of cannons by the sea and tell them to truce!"
The white-known crane needs this island because it will be an important supply place for the Ming Dynasty to travel west. The white-known crane has heard of it in later generations that wars between the two tribes are constantly on the rise. There is no right or wrong about this. They all believe that the other party occupied their homeland. The majority of people is the Sinhalese Kingdom, also known as the Lion Kingdom.
The Tamil Kingdom, which has a small number of people, but has a higher education level and a more fierce combat power, came here with King Ashoka. According to them, Sinhala people are outsiders.
"Stop the war, for mercy!" The old monk also came out of the ship's warehouse when he heard about the war.
As soon as he saw the old monk, the white-famous crane frowned.
"I said Master Xuanbei, can you change a set of cassocks? This set..." Bai Minghe really didn't want to describe it. This set was made of piece after piece of cloth. This is the believer's hundred clothes. It looks like a cassock, but the materials really make Bai Minghe headache.
Moreover, there are straw sandals on the feet, and there is no Zen stick on the hands, just a tree stick.
"I...
"No, no, no, no, no." Bai Minghe was afraid. Once the old monk spoke, he would probably be able to teach himself a day and night of Buddhism. So Bai Minghe stopped him and had to say, "Otherwise, I have someone make a special set. We can wear this rag. You are the only master of our Ming Dynasty, and there are not many people in the Ming Dynasty who say that they are more advanced than your Buddhism."
"No, it's just that Buddhism does not fight, I dare not speak out, I am not good at practicing. My monk's cultivation is not enough..."
The white-known He was speechless. The clothes worn by this master were beggars in Nanjing, but the master did not stick to money. He could wear straw sandals because the boat was sometimes slippery and barefoot was very dangerous, otherwise he would not even wear shoes.
Bai Minghe wanted to persuade him again, and Archbishop Byzantine Aola also came out. Not only did he not help Bai Minghe, he also advised Bai Minghe: "We also have ascetic monks in the Orthodox Church, and Master Xuanbei is the real practitioner. The jewels and treasures on all over his body are blasphemy to the Lord, but spreading the Lord's grace."
"A set of silk robes represents the face of the Ming Dynasty. Since the monks are empty in all four elements, don't care what they wear."
Bai Minghe wanted to persuade him again, but how could Master Xuanbei listen to him? He didn't use Buddha's words, and directly told Bai Minghe in secular words: "Master Bai, you also have compassion in your heart, you save the rich people. I also have compassion. You save people, and I save the heart, so you and I save people and do good."
"I won't persuade you, please be happy." Bai Minghe wanted to persuade him again, but saw that the Archbishop was wearing a linen cloth.
What else can I persuade? If such a master can persuade him, that is a miracle. It will really make the sun rise from the west.
After chatting for a few words, there was a truce there.
"Tell them the leaders on both sides to come and see me." Bai Minghe spoke up very simply and directly.
This is a very stiff order, but the original words were passed on.
Both sides who were fighting on both sides did not dare to resist too much when they saw this huge fleet, especially the dragon flag of the Ming Dynasty hanging above. The Ming Dynasty represents strength. Even if the Ming people have not come here for decades, the Ming Dynasty, as a great power in the East, still has strong influence.
What's more, the sound of cannons is just a deterrence, not an attack, and attacks are all unmanned seas.
Soon, the three of them came to Bai Minghe and were on the deck.
These three people did not salute Bai Minghe first, but gave a very solemn salute to the old monk Xuanbei. Even Hindu believers respect Buddhist monks. They are different from the conflict between Orthodox and Protestantism, and they both like peaceful and moderate sects.
"Sit down and tell me why you are fighting?" The white-named crane and the big horse's golden sword sat in the upper position.
Of course, the person who came here was not a small person, and he would not say such trivial matters as who robbed his food or who robbed his cattle. He first introduced himself, one of whom was a Hindu master, who was not the leader, but a spiritual leader. He represented these vagrants to meet the nobles of the Ming Dynasty here.
The other two are two leaders, namely the mountain Sinhalese and the Haitian Sinhalese.
In fact, it is the one who lives on the mountain and on the beach, and there is no difference in faith. In an era of inconvenient transportation, it is normal to divide it into two major leaders. The Lion Kingdom is actually the Sinhalese people in Haiti.
"Since three hundred years ago, Colombo belonged to us, and since then, their people have become more and more, our survival has been squeezed, and we just want to get back our place of residence." The Tamil monk preached peacefully.
The leader of the Sinhalese people in Haiti, the Lion King, replied: "A thousand years ago, this was our home."
"You are not the indigenous people here, you come to the Northern Territory!"
This Northern Territory does not refer to the place name of Australia, but the name of the South Asian subcontinent. It was almost arguing between the two sides, and the white-name crane slapped the table:
"Stop, don't argue. I love peace, I like you here very much, and I like you two ethnic groups very much. Listen to me and say a few words. If what I say is wrong, you can refute it."
"Please tell me the nobles of the country!" The leader of the mountain Sinhara purely brought people to help fight. It would be not a bad thing for him to not fight.
"First of all, let me talk about you in my heart. Let's talk about the Tamils. You are constantly promoting education to let children understand the words as much as possible. I heard that your children understand our Chinese for a small half."
Bai Minghe saw that there was no reaction on the other person's face, so he had to continue saying: "
Also, you are very brave, but you have forgotten that the homeland of your ancestors is not Buddhism or the Indian religion. Although Ashoka believed in Buddhism, his glory represents the entire Indian religion! Are I wrong?”
"You are not right." The Tamil monk gave a salute.
Bai Minghexin said, he is really a straight man. (To be continued...)
