Chapter nine hundred and thirteen: the king of kings

Chen Kaizhi looked at Jiang Hai and smiled: "Do you think I can't defeat the Yang family?"

Jiang Hai was silent for a long time.

He obviously did not dare to tell lies, but he was afraid that his truth would make Chen Kaizhi's long-eyed angry, so he said cautiously: "Your Majesty can defeat the Yang family on land a hundred times, but the Yang family can still leave."

Chen Kaizhi smiled and said, "Then, let's wait and see."

Then, he glanced at Qianhu: "Mr. Jiang is very protective. He knows everything else. Let him make a record. I will take a closer look at it."

Then, Chen Kaizhi looked at Fang Wucai: "Uncle Master, we cut off the line of Jianghai, and cut off their channels for purchasing goods on land. Next, it depends on Uncle Master."

Fang Wucai smiled and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, there is a small matter, but... If you go to sea, I will have to work hard for boats. Your Majesty should also establish the queen, and you should establish the imperial concubine."

Chen Kaizhi now has a good impression of Uncle Fang, but the only thing that is unhappy is that when he is talking about feelings, he insists on making a few naked interests.

Chen Kaizhi said ashamed: "Uncle Master Fang Xin is just that, but there is something. I wonder how Uncle Master plans to contact them?"

"Easy." Fang Wucai seemed to have already made plans and said casually: "As long as the Emperor of Northern Yan arrives in Jibei, I will show up."

Chen Kaizhi suddenly realized.

Fang Wucai has escaped in the eyes of the world now, which shows that he is afraid that Chen Kaizhi will deal with him.

But how to show up? If the Emperor of Northern Yan came to Jibei and Fang Wu suddenly appeared, then... everything can be explained. Although the Great Chen court did not identify Fang Wucai as an imperial offender, it is obvious that Fang Wu cannot show up rashly, which is too strange. But if the Emperor of Northern Yan came and Fang Wu appeared, everything would naturally arise. Emperor of Northern Yan and Fang Wu had a good personal relationship. Once the people of Northern Yan arrived, even if Fang Wu appeared, Da Chen could not do anything to him.

It is even possible to take this opportunity to let overseas people see Fang Wucai's influence.

As for the Great Chen court, although in the eyes of outsiders, Chen Kaizhi regarded him as the remnant of the Empress Dowager, after all, this person was protected by the people of Northern Yan, and Chen Kaizhi could not do anything to him.

Fang Wucai, who appeared at this time, seemed to be demonstrating to the Chen court.

only……

Chen Kaizhi seemed worried and said with concern: "Uncle Master should be careful, and he should not speak too much."

Fang Wucai curled his lips indifferently and said calmly: "It's just a Yang family. I have heard of that Yang Zheng. He also has a father named Yang Wen. He has been dead for nine years. When his father was the head of the Yang family in Guanzhong, I also talked and laughed with him."

This is another set...

Chen Kaizhi actually couldn't tell whether Master Wu was bragging or there was such a past. He was too lazy to ask about it, but just said seriously: "It's good if Master Master can be careful."

The next morning, Chen Kaizhi's sage arrived at the harbor in the eastern suburbs of Jibei.

It seemed very busy here, and the hazy morning mist made Chen Kaizhi hear only the sound of blue waves, but in the distance, it was just a blur.

Yang Biao, Deng Jian and others came with them.

At this time, Yang Biao said: "Your Majesty, the sea breeze is strong here, Your Majesty should go back."

Chen Kaizhi looked back and looked at Yang Biao, whose beards were dancing under the jaws by the sea breeze, and then smiled and said, "Look, Mr. Yang, this vast ocean is a natural barrier for us. For the people, it cannot be cultivated or planted food, which is useless; but... for the Yang family, there can be countless wealth here, which is the foundation of their foothold in the world. It is said that there is a golden house in books, a beautiful woman in books, and a thousand millet in books; but in the eyes of the Yang family, there is a golden house in the sea. They have been struggling for two hundred years, and for the past two hundred years, all of them have influenced Da Chen and the world. But we who stand on the land are still confused and think that they are fertile.

The land is the central country, but I don’t know that the hidden dangers in this blue ocean. Yesterday, the Jinyiwei sent the transcript of Jianghai to the desk in detail overnight. There were information about the Yang family ships. Their ships were all improved with the Folang aircraft. There were artillery on the hull, which moved very fast, the warships were flying, and the merchant ships were loaded with great loads. I planned to defeat all the Yang pirates in one place and beat them all, not just to relieve their hatred, but to the fact that this ocean is not owned by the Yang family, but to my Da Chen. The huge profits they made should benefit the people of the world, rather than a small group of bandits, and the Yang family. I want to go out, and Da Chen must go out, otherwise I will be trapped here forever, so how can I be willing to do so?"

Chen Kaizhi's words made sense, but Yang Biao became worried and said, "They have a huge ship, most of them are sailors and thieves who are good at water battles. In this vast ocean, there is no trace. If I, Da Chen, really want to manage this ocean, Your Majesty, I have something I shouldn't say, it is really difficult for me, Da Chen to build a ship. The money and grain and manpower required, even if I build a giant ship that can be used to go out to sea, there are only a hundred ships. It will take ten, twenty, thirty or even fifty years to compete for the sea with the Yang family, but it may not be able to meet its edge. What's more, such a huge expense... I am afraid that the court will not make ends meet. Your Majesty wants to transform a new army now. This is an endless amount of silver. Do you ignore this Da Chen and other things?"

Obviously, he was a man of a conspiracy and was not wrong. Da Chen was not an independent island, and even enemies were everywhere. Although there were tens of millions of military and civilians, they seemed powerful, it was actually a burden, because the court could not abandon other functions in order to build ships.

In this regard, the Yang family has the advantage. They have no burdens themselves, no need to rescue disasters, no need to build military horses on land, and guard against cities everywhere. Not only do they have no such burdens, they can rely on the huge profits of monopoly trade in the ocean to recruit countless desperate people, create powerful fleets, and roam the world.

At this time, Chen Kaizhi's eyes opened slightly, revealing a deep smile, and said, "So, we must find out something else. In fact, over the years, there have been countless craftsmen in Jibei, and a large number of machinery have emerged. The latest steel has appeared, in a sense, changed the development of production tools, right? I heard that many workshops now have special mechanics. In addition, I also heard that in many yarn workshops, hydraulic machinery has begun to use wind power, and mills have begun to use wind on a large scale. There are also some workshops, and they are even trying to make steam engines based on some principles I proposed?"

Yang Biao nodded and said, "I have heard of this."

In fact, the development of tools is indeed extremely rapid in Jibei, which is inseparable from Chen Kaizhi's encouragement, and in a sense, it is also inseparable from the special situation in Jibei.

Merchants all over the world gathered together, and countless visits appeared like bamboo shoots after a rain. Once the trade opened, it meant that the goods in the workshop. Any item sold well would have to expand production frantically, and merchants would have to recruit craftsmen to produce.

But at this time, many merchants found that it was still too slow to expand production, especially in some popular industries, where goods were in short supply, and expanding the scale required more craftsmen, and the price of manpower also increased.

In the past, manpower was the least valuable. Because it was not worth it, it would recruit as much as you wanted. However, with the employment needs of many public workshops, manpower began to be shortened. Even if you recruit people from other places, you would not be able to do the work of the workshop for the time being. This required a period of cultivation. On the other hand, goods were in short supply. In this case, many workshop owners had to try their best to replace manpower with all means.

At first, they were just simple machinery, and it was not difficult to create these things. It was even existing in ancient times, such as hydraulic power and wind power. Whether it is the large-scale application of hydraulic power and wind power, its essence is also a kind of machinery. Water trucks rely on water to push the force they generate, but in order to use it in production, it must be converted. So simple bearings appeared, impellers also appeared, and many things were improved again and again.

Obviously, this made many people become enthusiastic about improving productivity. Some specialized machinery workshops began to appear, and a large number of advanced craftsmen began to work hard to figure out how to make things move and use strange things to replace human power.

At the same time, people discovered that there were many books in the library on Feiyu Peak, which made some people suddenly realize.

Originally, those books were ignored. In addition to lying honestly in the library of Feiyu Peak, many people couldn't understand them. Even if they could barely understand them, they were only half-understanding, let alone useful. But now... when someone discovered its magical use, many people gradually became interested. Some booksellers even started printing these books, and the sales in Jibei were pretty good.
