Chapter 455
As soon as Pony Port announced its massive purchase of teak wood, caravans from several countries including Nan'an and Siam immediately responded.

In fact, Ryukyu Island also has a lot of teak, but the price of this thing is not expensive, it is still a good buy.

The pony port is very spacious, and a warehouse with tens of acres of land is selected as a storage place for teak wood.

Zou Run said: "Uncle, why do you think my brother asked me to put the teak wood I bought here?"

Zou Yuan said with a smile: "Let's just fight a good battle, and we will do whatever my brother arranges. If you think too much all day long, why not continue to do business in Dengyun Mountain."

Zou Run said: "If you want me to tell you, my brother must build a shipyard in Pianma Port. If the teak is transported thousands of miles to Cangzhou, the distance will be very long, and the cost will increase. What's more, the teak may not be dry. Tou, it’s unknown if you put it here to dry.”

"It's like you didn't say that. Don't think about it. Pony Harbor is relatively safe. It is enough for 200 people to be on duty each time. The others will go to build kilns and burn bricks first." Zou Yuan said.

"Okay, ready to start work."

It is very hard work to start a foundation, but the Cangzhou Army has a lot of sea support.

All kinds of tools are complete, mainly money.

Animals such as mules and cattle were purchased from Qinzhou to transport bricks and stones.

Some local villages heard that the port was going to purchase stones, and they sent them here in horse-drawn carts. The price was not expensive, almost just the freight.

The only thing that is more troublesome is the burning of bricks. There is no coal production near Qinzhou, so it needs to be shipped from Dengzhou Port on a special Dafu ship. The cost of transporting five or six hundred tons per ship is still acceptable.

The Marine Corps led by Zou Yuan and Zou Run was full of talents, and the division of labor continued. The brick-burning was responsible for burning the bricks, and the foundation laying was responsible for laying the foundation. Things were done very quickly.

There was so much movement in the pony port, but there was still no movement in the Qinzhou government.

Zou Yuan was worried, so he sent someone over to inquire. It turned out that Qinzhou Prefecture had changed a lot.

Tongzhi takes the post of interim magistrate and thoroughly investigates the case of missing children.

Anyway, no one ever mentioned any more troubles at Pony Harbor.

Because the fighting power of Pony Harbor is too strong, that is the south wall, who wants to hit the south wall?

Besides, Chai Lin, Dian Zhengnan, Jie Bao, Liu Dazhuang and others are preparing to return from Ryukyu Island.

Lu Yidao came to Chai Lin and said, "My lord, I also want to go back to celebrate the New Year. I haven't celebrated the New Year from home for three years."

Chai Lin said: "You haven't made much progress in the past few years. I have been asking you to train more helpers, but you are not willing to teach many key points. Thousands of soldiers from the bombing battalion and thousands of engineers are here in Ryukyu. I work on the island, and occasionally fight, casualties happen from time to time, I can’t do without you.”

Lu Yidao said: "I'll change it, I'll change it. I will definitely teach a few more apprentices next year."

Lu Yidao had taught more than [-] apprentices in the past few years, but none of them came out. All of them could only learn some simple bandaging, and they would not be able to deal with large wounds such as large knife wounds and arrow wounds.The reason is that Lu Yidao is too conservative.

Ideological matters are not easy to deal with. Chai Lin can't put him in prison because of this matter, but it's a pity that this ideological work can't be done.But what is gratifying is that recently there have been more than a dozen good trauma doctors in the army doctor, who are not afraid of blood and dare to deal with large-scale wounds.

"Well, your two sons are already in their twenties. I heard that they are well-known in the ten miles and eight towns. Let them come to the army. You can teach them more and learn the art of swords and arrows. It will be easy for you in the future, and it will be great to go home and enjoy the blessings every year." Chailin said.

Lu Yidao was very happy, he did have this idea, but he couldn't mention it directly, because he was worried that others would say that he had selfish intentions.And there is a rule in the military camp, that is, father and son are in different camps.

"Okay, okay, everything will be arranged by the adults."

Li Kui came over and grabbed Lu Yidao: "Mr. Lu, you can stay at ease. You are the master in our bombing camp. You can eat whatever you want, and you can have whatever you want. If you want a savage girl, we I can catch you too."

Gongsun Sheng stared: "Brother hasn't returned yet, you started talking nonsense."

Li Kui shrank his neck in fright and said, "I'm talking nonsense, I'm talking nonsense. Our bomb camp is all decent people, all decent people."

Gongsun Sheng, Lu Yidao, and Li Kui's bombing battalion and engineering battalion stayed to open up wasteland and grow rice.

Chai Lin didn't take many people with him. For more than [-] days, he took the durian fruit that Li Kui had brought to his old lady, and boarded the humpback whale, without talking all the way.The Humpback Whale went straight to the port of Dengzhou and arrived at the port of Dengzhou two days later.

When he arrived at Dengzhou Wharf, Chailin went straight to the official post station at the wharf.

It is still very cheap to send a durian to Yizhou, but the speed of ordinary shipments is slow, and the speedy shipments do not dare to promise that they will arrive before the end of the year, because it is already the [-]th of the twelfth lunar month, and it is likely to arrive halfway through the year.

Liu Dazhuang said: "My lord, go to the Four Seas Car Shop, they will arrive in three or four days, but they can only go to the county town."

Chai Lin said: "That's no problem, let them send it directly to the Yishui county government. I will write a letter and ask them to send it to Li Kui's house immediately after they arrive."

Chai Lin took hundreds of Wen and asked Liu Dazhuang to distribute the durian fruit to Li Kui.

Dian Zhengnan asked: "Brother, I'm more curious. Four Seas Automobile Co., Ltd. is also your business. Why do you still have to pay for yourself?"

"You don't understand this. Four Seas Cars is my business. But the people below don't know that the shopkeepers in these places are all hired, and I can't use power to overwhelm them. So I have to pay and I have to pay .” Chailin explained.

Back in Cangzhou, Wu Yong immediately came to report.

"Brother, during the time you've been away, great changes have taken place in the imperial court. The Xixia people sent out troops wantonly when they suppressed Wang Qing because of Tong Guan, and when the defense was relaxed, they took down Weizhou Mansion and robbed wantonly. The people in the northwest suffered." Wu Needless to say.

"Oh, I guess Tong Guan defeated it?" Chailin asked.

"That's right, Tongguan was defeated, and [-] remnants were trapped in Weizhou City. The imperial court appointed my brother as the Jiedu envoy of Jingdong Road, and sent us to relieve Tongguan's siege." Wu Yong handed the imperial edict to Chai Lin.

Chai Lin is a little dizzy, what kind of card is this official playing?Borrowing a knife to kill someone?one stone two bird?
"Trap, this is probably a trap. The Western Army has a powerful family army. Even if Tong Guan's army is damaged in Taiyuan, how much can we lose? We need to travel thousands of miles to rescue? Nearly two thousand miles away, let's go When we get there, the flowers will bloom in spring," Chai Lin said, pointing to the map.

Wu Yong was very embarrassed: "At the beginning, I said that it would be great if we didn't fight the Song flag. Now the imperial court has just appointed my brother as the Jingdong Road Jiedu envoy. If I don't send troops, I'm afraid I will leave a mouthful and make people laugh at me."
