Qi Xiaotong wanted to go to the South China Sea to join the war and thought about countermeasures in order to change his father's mind.
Her eyes flashed faintly, and she said with a smile: "Dad, your arrangement seems good, but if you analyze it carefully, it doesn't feel very comprehensive."
Qi Yu was startled and asked curiously: "Oh? What's wrong with you?"
Xiaotong took a step forward happily, pointed to the map on the wall and said: "Look, father, lying in the northeast of Dawan is Fusang, our old enemy of Da Feng State. As we all know, the people of this country are ambitious and very good at plundering other countries."
We should focus on guarding resources. However, after we captured Dawan, we did not deploy corresponding garrison. This is a serious omission. If Fusang Kingdom suddenly changes from normal and sends troops to invade, wouldn't Dawan be in danger?
?”
As far as the current deployment is concerned, only a small number of government officials are retained in Dawan to maintain public security. There is indeed no regular garrison. Xiaotong said that it was not comprehensive, which is true.
However, this was not because Qi Dalang was careless, but because he had other considerations.
What is it again?
As we all know, Dafeng is currently building the Kunpeng Navy, and its purpose is to deal with the threat from Fusang. Since there is a big guy like the imperial court in the north, why does Dafeng need to increase its defense?
However, I am afraid that something might happen by chance.
In the unlikely event that Fusang Kingdom chooses to do the next best thing and extend its sinful black hand to the lonely bay, if that happens, it will be too late for me to regret it.
Thinking of this, Qi Yu couldn't help but feel a chill on his scalp, and a layer of caution and solemnity appeared on his face.
Seeing this, Xiaotong quickly took the opportunity to give her own advice: "Father, my daughter thinks that you should send Mr. Fu Xianfu to Dawan to guard it as soon as possible to prepare for a rainy day. He has participated in the Battle of Dawan and is very interested in the situation there.
I am very familiar with the geographical environment and am the perfect candidate for this position.”
"Um……"
"As for Master Fu's ability, everyone has seen it. He has traveled across the ocean to South America, and his experience in navigation is extremely rich. In addition, he is also familiar with the samadhi of naval warfare and is familiar with the use of firearms. With his
He is so talented that he can do his job on his own. With him stationed there, Dawan will definitely be safe. Oh, as for the little thing about attacking the Fujian ship you just mentioned, just think of it as target practice for Mr. Fu. Dad,
If it were arranged this way, it would be much more comprehensive."
Um?
You little girl, this is the original idea!
Qi Dalang, who had come to his senses, glared at his daughter with feigned anger.
However, her suggestion is indeed far-sighted and has a good overall view.
If that's the case, then just obey her.
When Xiaotong saw her father nodding, she couldn't help but feel happy.
Duan Zicheng stroked his beard and said: "Master Qi, what should we do with the captured Fujian merchants? Should we... kill them all on the spot?"
"No! Although they are all well-raised minions, their lives cannot be taken unless their crimes are punishable by death." Qi Yu weighed it up and said: "Let's do this, hand them all over to Dawan's government office.
Carry out punishment, pass the necessary checks, and impose the sentences that should be imposed, to serve as a warning to others! But one thing we need to remember is that we must not let them return home in the short term, lest they continue to act as an aide."
"okay!"
…
Two days later, it was a peaceful holiday, which was very suitable for relaxing at home.
However, Qi Dalang had no time to spare for half the day.
Early in the morning, Yin Tao sent someone over to invite her, saying that he wanted to rush over and help her stand alone.
Stations?
Haha, it’s a trivial matter!
Qi Yu casually ate some breakfast, and then left leisurely humming a small tune.
Is he in a good mood?
Yes, because he encountered something that made him very happy.
Speaking of which, yesterday, Tan Junyan withstood the pressure from the Hai family and made a fair and just judgment in the Hai Dalong case in accordance with the law, and the result lived up to Mr. Qi's expectations.
The specific verdict was: The criminal Hai Dalong, as a port official, knew the law and broke the law. He colluded with a group of Fujian merchants and committed theft while in prison. This behavior not only caused heavy losses to Qiongzhou's finances, but also disrupted the economy.
The hard-won economic and trade order... In accordance with the provisions of relevant laws, he was sentenced to fifty lashes and five years in prison without the possibility of bail.
In addition, the official office will never hire him.
After hearing the news, Qi Yu couldn't help but smile with joy.
It seems that Tan Junyan's moral character is still the same as before, and has not been stained by the bad habits in the officialdom. At least, the principles in the general direction are still there.
Just as Zhou Dunyi said in praise: I only love the lotus that comes out of the mud but is not stained, washes the clear ripples without being evil, is straight in the middle and straight to the outside, does not creep or branch.
Only such people can be entrusted with important tasks.
Generally speaking, the progress of this case is quite smooth, and the penalty result is also very gratifying. If there is any regret, it is that the mysterious person in this case is still at large.
This is not to say that Peng Wenchang did not do anything, but that the man was hiding too deep to find out any clues at all. Even Hai Dalong, the main culprit, only took a look in the night and did not see the specific appearance of the other person.
.
In other words, the mysterious man still maintains his mystery.
Let’s talk about the present first.
Qi Yu rode in a carriage with a green cloth curtain and quickly arrived at the place where Yin Tao was invited.
However, as soon as he got out of the car, he was stunned.
But I saw a sea of people everywhere, and there were black heads everywhere, swarming them like a hornet's nest when they returned to their nest.
Looking at the postures of these people, they all stood on tiptoes, stretched their necks, and looked towards the center in unison, as if they were observing something rare.
Huh?
What are the people looking at?
oh……
It turns out to be a newly released steam train.
No wonder!
Previously, the steam engine model car had been in the internal testing stage. Although the process was open to the public, only a few people had seen it due to space limitations.
In other words, today's event can be regarded as a truly shining debut, and it has attracted the attention of the melon-eating crowd.
Everyone has curiosity, understand and understand.
From the perspective of industrial development, today's trial operation is of great significance and can be regarded as an epoch-making milestone.
Haha, wouldn't it be overshadowed by the lack of witness from me, Qi Dalang, on such an occasion?
No need to guess, Yin Tao must have asked her to come over to participate in the lottery unveiling ceremony. This should be what she meant by standing.
Almost the same!
Unexpectedly, just a few breaths later, Qi Yu would be slapped in the face by his own judgment.
According to the officer who maintained order at the scene, he quietly told him that the unveiling ceremony of the steamer had already ended a long time ago.
What?
Is the ceremony over?
Then, why did this little girl let herself come here?
While he was confused, he saw that graceful figure floating over, and heard her say: "I said, why are you still standing there, help me stand up and speak!"
say?
Say...what?
When Yin Tao saw his stunned look, she realized that she was so anxious that she had forgotten to explain the reasons behind it.
She smiled apologetically and hurriedly explained: "It's like this. Because the common people have never seen such a behemoth, they are afraid of it. Although I have repeatedly emphasized that this car is safe and reliable, the common people still have doubts."
, I don’t dare to ride on it rashly. I have no choice but to invite you over to tell them what they said, so that they can set the record straight.”
That’s what happened!
Qi Yu suddenly understood, nodded and said: "Actually, this is not the reason why people are cautious. Everyone has a natural fear of unknown things, no matter who they are."
"Well..." Yin Tao saw the look of acquiescence on his face and said happily: "In that case, you should say a few words quickly, otherwise, who would dare to sit on this train?"
When Qi Yu heard this, he patted his chest and said with a smile: "It's just a little effort, just leave it to me."
After saying that, he raised his dignity and walked into the crowd with an air of anger.
"cough!"
Who is coughing so loudly?
Well, it turns out that the governor has arrived!
The common people who reacted immediately subconsciously stepped aside and opened a spacious passage for Qi Yu.
