Section 623 Negotiations on the Ezhou River

Why is it called the second-point version?
It can be described as a pedal bicycle driving a plow, because Qiongya does not have enough horses and cows. So someone invented this kind of plow, just like a water wheel. As long as you keep stepping on, the plow will continue to move forward and turn over the ground under the plow.
This was created by craftsmen after having enough iron tools.
In the fruit forest in Qiongya, a farmer summarized the techniques of grafting fruit trees that someone had tried a hundred years ago and further studied it in-depth.
There are now olive trees and other foreign tree species in Qiongya.
What's even more amazing is that the artificial hatching technology of poultry has begun to prepare for editing books.
The first item is poultry, not chickens.
The farmer in Qiongya didn’t know whether it was his personal hobby or the conditions were limited, so they were quails on a large scale.
On the Qiongya Tiefang, the reciprocating piston blowing equipment is already pure metal and is powered by water drainage.
Standing in front of the blower of the original blast furnace, Han Jiang hesitated whether he wanted to tell Shi Ziyan the principle of the steam engine.
But looking at it, Old Dao Shi stood here for a while and had to handle countless official duties. The matters in Qiongya Steel Floor were so tired that the old Dao's waist was bent a little.
Han Jiang decided to wait a little longer.
Or you may make a small model at home, then take down the Blacksmith District in Shuzhou, and conduct in-depth research.
Shi Ziyan didn't know what Han Jiang was thinking. After dealing with a lot of apprentices, the Tiefang document sent by the apprentice came, he said to Han Jiang: "Brother Jiang, go to our Qiongya Big Boat House to check out. We must go. Last time, we issued a million-money prize, and more than 20 people were rewarded in one go. Don't you care about where to send this money?"
Han Jiang's eyes lit up: "There must be a miracle."
"It's not a miracle, it's just created by researching reality on paper. There are two technologies. One was obtained by a great ship slasher seventy years ago. However, because of the huge expenses, the court was unwilling to try it. And it was only used for sea ships. This time, our twelve-masted ships were used, and we tried the test ships, which is OK."
Han Jiang didn't read it, but he also knew the value represented by the good word Shi Ziyan.
Shi Ziyan showed Han Jiang two new ship technologies. One is to quickly add iron sheets on the outer layer of pure warships, and then add iron angles on the bow, which is only ten years earlier than the first iron-armored ship that actually appeared in history.
But the design is better.
Another thing is the peak of the real Dasong shipbuilding industry.
Later generations called: low-center of gravity fluid shock absorbing device.
To be more professional, this technology is:
The ship has a small hole with a cover at the bottom of each cabin, which ship technicians call it "water eye". During sailing, rainwater or waves splashing on the boat can flow into a connected mezzanine cabin at the bottom of the boat through the "water eye". The water in the cabin lowers the center of gravity of the hull and makes the ship more stable. Due to the inertia and internal friction of the water in the cabin, the hull fluctuations and shaking caused by wind and waves will partially offset the hull's undulations caused by wind and waves.
Seventy years ago, a great boatman studied the sea ship.
At that time, the imperial court was not only lacking money, but also how could a person like Song Huizong who only knew how to spend his money on shipbuilding?
Fortunately, this technical information has not been lost.
Combined with the watertight warehouse technology that was unique to the world in the Song Dynasty, under these two technologies, the twelve-massed ocean-going giant ships can already begin mass production.
Shi Ziyan knew in his heart that it was Han Jiang.
If anyone in the court had a creative invention, how could it be that the craftsmen would always have a huge reward of millions of dollars just because they had creative inventions?
Such a huge reward has promoted the craftsmen's fanaticism.
Han Jiang is inspecting his South China Sea territory, and then Ezhou.
Ezhou is already empty, and most of the people in Ezhou retreated to Jiangbei with the Wancheng army, because Jiangbei can rent land from the government, and the land rent is similar to free gifts, but taxes must be paid according to the rules of the acres being distributed to the acres.
This doesn't matter anymore.
The main thing is that I have my own fields and my own home.
Zhao Linde came to Ezhou. The heads hanging on the city gate in Ezhou have not been taken down yet. Wang Heqiang's heads, Zhao Linde and many royal families have received gifts from him to Lin'an.
As soon as Zhao Linde entered Ezhou, his staff around him gave a suggestion: "It is better to write a letter back and tell the court. Under the dignity of the duke, the rebels fled in sight."
This suggests.
snort!
After so many days of misery, Zhao Linde also realized something.
Why do I encounter such a failure? First of all, there are not many truly wise people around me.
Like the aide who just spoke, he might as well die.
Zhao Linde stretched out his hand and pointed: "Come on, beat this incompetent man out of sticks."
Zhao Linde is not angry. If he wants to be angry, he has been pissed to death these days.
Many people don’t understand why Zhao Linde beat the staff who made good suggestions, and Zhao Linde doesn’t want to explain.
Smart people naturally understand.
Writing about your own majesty scares away the rebels. It’s great. The court said you should let the rebels surrender, or you should continue to use majesty to make the rebels retreat again and return to Wancheng.
Should Zhao Linde still live?
Recruitment.
The Song Dynasty court had sent three batches of messengers, and the Wancheng Army also responded three times and agreed to be recruited.
It's a very high requirement.
The court did not dare to agree to the amount of military expenditure of 3 million yuan per year.
When I agreed to this, someone immediately said that even the rebels in the court had to pay tribute to the annual monies every year. The court could be less than money, but it could not ignore the face.
Zhao Linde came with a huge amount of money, and brought fifty boxes of gold alone.
The time was agreed to hold the first meeting on a boat on the Yangtze River at noon the next day.
Zhao Linde was still nervous. After all, the Hanyang Army's navy was no longer there at this time, and many parts of the navy were under the actual control of the Wancheng Army.
At noon, four dishes and one soup, a standard Wancheng working meal.
There was only one person who came to see Zhao Linde, You Jiugong.
The Wancheng Army did not send many soldiers and horses, and the ship sent only had one passenger ship.
You Jiugong arrived first and sat steadily.
Zhao Fan, Zhao Fang's son, was only seventeen years old, accompanied him as a clerk.
Zhao Fan asked You Jiugong in a low voice: "Sir, the court is the best after all, should we sit on the right?"
"It's reasonable." You Jiugong nodded and signaled to change seats.
The left is supreme, so the left side naturally has to leave it to Zhao Linde. You Jiugong believes that this is indeed reasonable, and their purpose is to accept the amnesty. According to Han Jiang's letter, he must also give enough face to the court.
After changing the seats, Zhao Fan asked again: "Sir, what will we talk about when Duke Sixiu arrives later?"
"Low, we are just a group of idiots. Of course, we must have enough respect for a duke and a duke representing the court."
Chapter completed!
