The bear child of the Red Chamber, Jia Cong

It was not until the 27th day of the twelfth lunar month that Yang Heng and Wu You's ship docked at Guangzhou Port.They have changed two large ships, and there are more than [-] sailors directly under the name of Wang Ziteng on board, and they still have a camp in Guangzhou.

Wu You came to meet the brothers, and they almost didn't recognize each other.He looked like a different person than when he was in Lixiangyuan, he was dark and strong, and he raised his hands and feet full of murderous aura. Everyone laughed and said, "I have official authority!" Looking at Yang Heng again, the original quack air and market aura I can't find it anymore, and my face is much tougher.This little boy Yang An has grown a lot taller, with dark skin and sharp eyes, it is obvious that he has seen blood before.At this moment, he is half-grown, pretending to be an adult with a sullen face, no matter how much he teases him, he refuses to act like a baby.Then everyone sat around and listened to them talking about the three years at sea.

Their original boat and dozens of people on board were all sent by water.At that time, Yang Heng and Wu You were not familiar with the situation of the sea, so they followed his subordinates obediently.Wu You was literate and educated. On the first day of boarding the boat, he explained, "Those who follow Third Master Cong of Rongguo Mansion are not allowed to be blind, and all must read and write."

But Yang Heng was stunned for a moment, and said, "I don't even know how to read!"

Wu You said: "You also learn together, and so does An'er."

Yang Heng said happily: "An'er also learns? Can you invite a gentleman on board?"

Wu You pointed to his nose and said, "What do you think I am here for? Teaching is my job, okay?"

Yang Heng hurriedly cupped his hands and called him "Mr. Wu!"

Wu You waved his hand and said, "You don't need to call me sir, it's not just for teaching."

The old sailors on board were all from poor backgrounds, and they had never thought of learning to read, and they were all pleasantly surprised.Many of Wu You's tricks were not enough to be used, and the single "literacy" subdued everyone.

Finally, they handed over a western cargo ship and returned the original ship to Shui Rong.When the place is big, some new people can be recruited.All the sailors who had brothers and older sons called to come - because the soldiers on this ship were paid a lot, and they were also taught to read and write!As soon as the news got out, many good sailors wanted to jump on board the ship.Except for the corners that cannot be dug into Huo Sheng's water solution, Wu Yang and the others don't mind the others, they just pick up the good ones.Wu You followed the method taught by Jia Cong again, training and teaching at the same time.Therefore, although only two hundred people have accumulated in three years, they are all excellent.

Jia Cong quietly took Wu You aside and asked, "Hey, do you know the princess? The granddaughter of Prince Yizhong."

Wu You was taken aback: "The one raised by General Bai? I don't know her. Don't you want to marry her?"

Jia Cong snorted, "If you think about it carefully, you really don't know him?"

Wu You wondered, "Where can I meet people? I can't find anything."

Jia Cong curled his lips: "Okay, I have no problem." Wu You was inexplicable.

On the second day Wu You and Yang Heng came to Guangzhou, Jia Cong invited all the brothers from Lixiangyuan and his father and sister together, and more than 20 people crowded into a room.Although the girls were raised in deep boudoirs in the past, since Panlong Mountain, they have not cared about any taboos, and they are quite at ease.

Jia Cong looked around and said, "We're going to Taiwan in the next year. Compared with Guangzhou, it's much poorer. There's a lot of waste to be done. It's all of you who are here. The mountains and rivers are vast, and there are many heroes. It is a seed, and others have grown into big trees. Therefore, others are advanced and we are backward. It is so difficult to achieve great things. Let me say one thing first. What we lack most here is talents. No matter what kind of talents, as long as If you are talented, you must use them. My sisters are all talented, and you need to use their strength to build the Taiwan government. In the future, you may find that other women are also talented, and they can be used in the same way. Who uses the secular nonsense If you want to kick out a capable woman for any reason, I will kick him out."

Wu You first smiled and said, "My Xiaoxi is also a woman. If you want to kick women out, you must force them first."

Jia Cong said: "No. There is no such thing as strong or not, only suitable or not. The strongest is not necessarily the most suitable."

Yao'er nodded: "It's true, but it's not about fighting."

There was no objection from everyone's expressions, Jia She looked like he was too lazy to care, but Jia Lian's eyes flashed a trace of disapproval.Anyway, Jia Lian's ability is ordinary, Jia Cong ignored him, and said: "The most important people are those who are in charge of construction, workshops, money, manpower, and laws."

Wu Xiaoxi smiled and said crisply: "The Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Officials, and the Ministry of Punishment."

Jia Cong also smiled: "The Ministry of Industry will be divided into two. Right now, the construction and workshop are the most important things, and one person can't handle it. How about leaving the construction to Sister Lin?"

Lin Daiyu was originally the enlightenment teacher of this group of people, who would say no?Everyone nodded.

Jia Lian hurriedly said, "How can I give her a girl's house to build things?"

Jia Cong said with a smile: "There are more than 20 of us present, but she is the only one who knows how to create."

Yao'er also said: "Ms. Lin has been studying construction for many years. Although she is not as good as building everyone, she is always an expert."

Seeing that Jia Lian was still going to speak, Jia Cong said first, "There is only one thing, I want to remind Sister Lin."

Lin Daiyu already knew that she had her own work, at first she only thought it would be to settle accounts in the house, or to be his aide, but she never thought of letting her do the construction, she was a little flustered, and asked hurriedly: "What's the matter? "

Jia Cong sighed: "Sister Lin is careful, and she has studied the mechanism for so long, and your own home is so majestic and exquisite. It is the Shangshufu, so it is natural to be more elegant and knowledgeable. We are here What Huizi wants to build is a province. This province is currently quite barren and has nothing. The world will be chaotic in the next few years. In order to protect ourselves, we must build it into a prosperous and strong copper wall. Therefore, what is exquisite and beautiful, Nothing is as practical as practical. Right now we don’t have time to carve beams and paintings, we just need to be simple and solid. I hope my sister can complete a few important projects as soon as possible, otherwise things will be difficult to continue, and everyone will help you first.”

Lin Daiyu was solemn, sat upright unconsciously, and asked, "What is the important item?"

Jia Cong said: "Cement workshops, roads, seaports, academies, and provincial capitals."

Daiyu was startled.

"The cement workshop is at the top of the list. Because cement is extremely useful, it can get twice the result with half the effort. Roads are impassable and communication is inconvenient. Since it is a large island, the seaport is the most important thing." He spread out a map of Taiwan, pointing Referring to the Kaohsiung Port Road in later generations, "This place belongs to Fengshan County, and it is an excellent natural port." Then he pointed to Taichung, "This is called Nantun, and it is also a good port. The land is fertile and can be used for farming." Then referring to Keelung, "There is a mountain here that looks like a chicken coop, so it is named Keelung. The best ports in Taiwan are these three, but there is nothing at the moment."

Jia Lian was dumbfounded: "How do you know?"

Jia Cong laughed and said, "Could it be that if I don't know anything, I just asked the imperial court for the Taiwan government?"

Jia Lian asked, "What if the imperial court orders me to go to Qiongzhou?"

Jia Cong said: "I also have the map of Qiongzhou, but I haven't checked it carefully. Since Uncle Wang is in Guangdong and Guangxi, the sage will not send his second brother to Qiongzhou. He is suspicious by nature and thinks too much no matter what he does. If you are in Qiongzhou , it is easy to deceive and deceive him with Uncle Wang."

Jia She said: "Lian'er, don't ask so many things. If you want to know, it's not too late to ask later. It's a room full of people."

Jia Lianfang fell silent.

Jia Cong smiled at Jia She, then pointed to Tainan and said, "This is the Chixian Building, where the second elder brother's magistrate's office is located. However, there is another place that is also very suitable for the provincial capital." He pointed to Taipei. He said, "This is Dajiala in Zhuluo County, and it will become a big city in the future. Sister Lin, apart from the ones above, this Dajiala is also very important."

Lin Daiyu was a little stunned: "... so many things are so important, I don't know where to start."

Jia Cong said with a smile, "It's not in a hurry. The days are long. A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step."

Xichun said: "Sister, if you don't mind, I'll help you!"

Jia Cong clapped his hands and said, "Okay, I happen to think that Sister Lin is too refined."

Xichun stared at him and said, "I'm not gentle?"

Jia Congqi asked: "Didn't Fourth Sister want to be a shrew?"

Tanchun and Daiyu laughed together.

Jia Cong waved his hand and said, "Forget it, if you don't recognize it, don't admit it. The construction of the project belongs to you two, named the Ministry of Construction."

Daiyu said sadly: "Although I have studied construction by myself for a few years, how can I do this? Forget it, you give me a map, and I will figure it out."

Sure enough, Jia Cong rolled up the map and handed it to her.Nai looked at Tanchun again: "The money matter belongs to the third sister, how about the Ministry of Finance?"

Tanchun stood up and said with great blessing, "I live up to my lord's entrustment." She has always had ambition, but she has nowhere to display it because she is confined to the boudoir.Now that I have such a big job, I didn't even think about shirking it, so I just came over directly.

Jia Cong grinned: "Gong Kun was in charge of this matter. He has been busy with sea goods for the past few years, so he has temporarily handed it over to Xiaoxi. Now Xiaoxi has other uses."

He handed over the money to his sister, and of course no one objected.Jia Lian deliberately said, "It's better to leave it to your second sister-in-law", but then thought, who cares about a pair of children?Then shut up.Anyway, it's better than handing it over to someone with a foreign surname.

Jia Cong looked at Tian Gengzi and said, "Brother Gengzi, I trouble you to set up a supervision department to supervise our internal illegal affairs."

Wu You hurriedly said: "Our brothers are all heroic and courageous, so how can we use supervision?"

Jia Cong said: "Right now we only have a dozen or so people, so naturally we don't need it. One day we will have two hundred, two thousand, twenty thousand officials of various sizes, how can we not supervise? Isn't that the same as today's Situ Is it the same at home? I have always been in favor of high salaries and honesty. It means that an official must have ability and do practical things. It is okay to give more salary, but it is absolutely forbidden to corrupt the law." He looked around with a serious face, "Sit down I can trust the group of people in the house. However, after 20 years, can your relatives, friends and subordinates guarantee that they are all clean? All dynasties and dynasties have started to go bad from this matter. Let’s just This matter is at the forefront. The Ministry of Supervision is dedicated to the violation of the law by those with power, from the emperor to the small officials."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was astonished and looked at each other, but no one dared to speak.

Liu Feng suddenly asked: "The grassroots broke the law?"

Jia Cong pointed to Jia Lian: "It's under the supervision of Mr. Jia Lian, the prefect of Taiwan."

Jia Lian couldn't help smiling.

"Brother Liu Feng will be in charge of dispatching people to various places for the time being. You have the ability to know people and make good use of them, Personnel Department."

Liu Feng nodded.

"In addition to the cement workshop, there are also sea boat workshops and farm tool workshops. Shen He, you take care of it first. Let's call it the Ministry of Industry."

Shen He responded.Wu Xiaoxi said, "Why isn't it called the Ministry of Industry?"

Jia Cong said: "I'm afraid I'm confused with the Ministry of Industry of Situ's family." Everyone looked at each other, smiled and said nothing.Jia Cong looked at Wu Xiaoxi again, "There is also a military industry department. In the future, there will be armor workshops, fire gun workshops, and artillery workshops. It's just that they can't do it right now. You have to buy them. This military industry department belongs to you."

Wu Xiaoxi frowned: "Is there nothing else to pick?"

Jia Cong said: "There is also a science and technology department, can you guess what it does?"

Wu Xiaoxi twitched her eyebrows, and sighed: "This subordinate understands... that will be more difficult. Forget it, I'll choose the Ministry of Military Industry."

Everyone laughed softly.

"The current navy is under the control of Yang Heng and Wu You, and it will still be managed by the two in the future. The navy is different from the pirates. It is not just one or two ships. I hope the two will quickly pick out those who can take care of it. Brother Yao'er is in charge of the army, and he wants people to recruit soldiers himself, and asks for money to find the third sister." Yao'er cupped his fists at Tanchun, who pursed his lips and smiled. "Cheng Chi forms a special forces battalion."

Cheng Chi hurriedly asked, "What is a special forces battalion?"

Jia Cong said, "Let's talk about this later."

Cheng Chi nodded and fell silent.

Jia Cong clapped his hands and said: "That's basically it. Everyone is short of talents. You can hire them in Guangdong, Guangxi, or look elsewhere. It doesn't matter whether I'm a foreigner or not. If you have anything to do, you can come to me to discuss and ask for money. I have nothing to do with looking for Jia Tanchun. Please Jarvis, Liu Feng, Wu Xiaoxi, and Lin Daiyu to find a successor within three years, thank you."

Ever since Daiyu picked up the map, she had listened to what he said, and couldn't help turning a lot of his things back and forth in her heart.Hearing this, he hurriedly asked, "What does this mean?"

Jia Cong said: "Right now we are poor and have no talents, so we can only send you all out to deal with it. Three years later, if we don't keep it together, there will be turmoil in the mountains and rivers. When the time comes, you will have to study and think about the court situation, and maybe even think about fighting."

Daiyu took a breath.

Wu Xiaoxi couldn't help asking, "What about the Ministry of Science and Technology? Who cares."

Jia Cong curled his lips and said, "Myself! I can't find someone to take care of the academy, and you guys are not suitable."

Liu Feng hurriedly said: "There is no one important person to coordinate."

Jia Cong said: "There are few people at the moment, and everything is starting. When Sister Lin finds a successor, it will be up to her."

Liu Feng waved his hand: "No. These things are extremely complicated, and there will be chaos if there is no coordination among individuals. We don't have a lot of time, and our foundation is too weak. Transfer Mr. Gong over."

Jia Cong said: "There are still many things in Beijing."

Liu Feng said: "Everything in the capital is stable, you can bother Mr. Gong to do it, and Mr. Gong Kun will transfer here. Also, since the academy does not have suitable staff, it is better to take over the eldest girl."

Jia Cong blinked and looked at Jia Amnesty.

Jia Amnesty said, "See what I do? You decide for yourself."

Jia Cong said: "There is really no suitable person to be in charge of the academy right now. What excuses are you looking for to invite eldest sister?"

Jia Amnesty glanced at him: "Are you asking me this? I'm just here to listen to the excitement."

What Jia Cong originally wanted was for him to agree, and he obviously agreed. He immediately smiled and said, "It's fine if Father doesn't object. Now I'm also the lord, and it's up to Liu Feng to make excuses."

Liu Feng also laughed and said: "I am thousands of miles away, how can I come up with an excuse for Beijing out of thin air? Why don't you leave it to Mr. Gong to want to go. Anyway, he has to bring people here, and he wants to go by himself."

Jia Cong hit the case and said, "Good!"

Everyone smiled together, and they were all smug, high-fiving each other, with a bit of youthful spirit.

The meeting was over for a while, and several people who got errands went to win over their colleagues. Lin Daiyu and Jia Tanchun were not that familiar with them, so she was embarrassed to solicit people, so she just figured out what to do.Jia Cong walked around with his own hands.

Wang Ziteng suddenly called out to Jia Cong, and told him with a wink, "I got a letter from Huo Sheng."

Seeing his strange appearance, Jia Cong blinked: "What did you say?"

Wang Ziteng laughed softly: "He intends to beg your third sister to be his concubine!"

Jia Cong jumped in shock: "Are you kidding me! No way!"

Wang Ziteng was taken aback.

Jia Cong shook his head again and again: "Uncle Wang, please try to turn it around for me. You can use any method, please! My third sister and the other sisters are the same. They will be busy in the next few years and have no time to marry. people."
