Although Shi Kefa is a bit tough and dull, he really finds common ground when getting along with him. This guy is still very interesting.

He is someone who really wants to do things and can throw himself into doing things.

Even if the methods are not too clever...

But Xu Changqing didn't need him to be very clever.

Now, the cabinet's official documents have been released. I guess some of the yamen such as the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Revenue, the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of Justice, and even the Jinyiwei will soon be in Yangzhou. There are many things that the Shige Department does not need to understand too much, and there will be professional talents to help him do it.

You can say that the officials of the Ming Dynasty do not understand government affairs, but if you really want to talk about this kind of bad fortune that can make a lot of money-

hehe.

They will let you understand what the means are!

The county magistrate of the family was defeated and the magistrate of the family was destroyed.

How could it be a joke?

...

The next day, as Xu Changqing expected, a large number of people came to Nanjing, including Ma Shiying, Qian Qianyi, Hou Xun and other cabinet masters, all of whom came here. In addition to one of the cabinets, there was another person left behind in Nanjing, who handled daily trivial matters, and almost all came out.

Xu Changqing no longer stayed in Yangzhou at this time. After a brief encounter with Ma Shiying and others, he left a thousand model military men to Shi Kefa and left Zhu Guobi to coordinate and handle many affairs, so he set off directly and headed for Nanjing.

Although this is similar to "farring off your pants", it still needs to be done, and Xu Changqing must avoid this suspicion.

To be honest, even if Xu Changqing doesn't take any money, it will not affect Xu Changqing. In the previous process, Xu Changqing had already made a lot of money.

But, do they dare not give him Xu Changqing's membership?

The answer is naturally no!

However, even if you get this money, Xu Changqing will not bring them back to Haicheng, but will stay in Jiangnan, do more good deeds, encourage more studies, and build more infrastructure, especially official roads and docks...

Unfortunately, there is too much business and time is tight, so Xu Changqing really doesn’t have time to appreciate the charm of Yangzhou.

The spring breeze is ten miles away from Yangzhou Road.

A dream of Yangzhou in ten years.

Xu Changqing is still very interested in the city of Yangzhou, which is also a market that Xu Changqing attaches great importance to in the future.

At this time, in the Ming Dynasty, in terms of entertainment industry, there were no other functions, except Nanjing, Yangzhou and Suzhou.

There was no time to take Kong Xi and his daughter for a walk, so I could only wait for the return trip to see if there was time.

...

A day and a half later, when Xu Changqing led his troops to the riverside, Wang Xi and Songjiang deputy general officer "Huanjianglong" Zhu Guangzhi, who had been staying here for a while, had been waiting here for a long time.

"I am humble in the position of Zhu Guangzhi. I have seen the Marquis. I have heard that the Marquis is powerful for several years. Today I can see the Marquis with my own eyes. It is such a blessing that I have only cultivated in eight lifetimes..."

Wang Xi had just kowtowed to Xu Changqing and saw the gift. Zhu Guangzhi knelt on the ground with a "plop" and kowtowed to Xu Changqing desperately, full of pleasingness.

Xu Changqing smiled and looked at the old gangster who was dark and full of strong lines. After a moment, he said slowly: "You are polite to Zhu Junmen, please get up quickly. Changqing has also heard that Zhu Junmen is famous for a long time. At this time, I can get Zhu Junmen to give up secretly and surrender to Ming to help him, and it will be like a tiger with wings!"

Although Xu Changqing said a lot of empirical words, he was almost half and half of the truth. He was indeed paying attention to Zhu Guangzhi.

This guy is a real "hunjianglong"!

Especially his several iron armored centipede ships, if they really want to be killed, the model army's fleet may not be the opponent.

Of course, his centipede ship also has great flaws.

Design factors determine that on the river, the centipede ship can indeed run rampant and very fiercely, but if it really reaches the sea, it will be a waste of time. Xu Changqing can strangle him to death at will.

"Hehe, Mr. Xie."

Zhu Guangzhi laughed foolishly and hurriedly got up.

He is not stupid. At this time, Xu Changqing's appreciation for him was even more happy than Zhu Cixuan's appreciation for him.

Because he knew very well who was the real controller of this huge dynasty.

After a few simple greetings, Zhu Guangzhi couldn't wait to express his loyalty to Xu Changqing.

This time he not only brought his life. Two centipede ships like roots came over, but also brought hundreds of ships of various types to help Xu Changqing cross the river.

It was also the first time that Xu Changqing saw the legendary centipede ship, and his eyes suddenly narrowed.

How to say it?

Xu Changqing was also a little shocked for a moment and didn't know how to express it.

The two centipede boats were like two huge centipedes at this time, quietly parked on the shore, and at least hundreds of paddles stretched out from one side of the boat, which was really shocking.

If someone with intensive phobia, he may not dare to look at it too much.

Because it is wrapped in many iron sheets, and the years seem to be a bit old, many black and shady colors are formed, if you look at it with a glance-

It's really like a big centipede living, waiting by the river to eat people.

Xu Changqing did not rush to cross the river, but smiled and said, "I've been tired these days, and it's a little late, so let's leave tomorrow. Zhu Junmen, although this is the first time you and me have met, they have been in harmony for a long time. We must have a few drinks tonight!"

Zhu Guangzhi was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but be overjoyed.

Hasn't he been in contact with Xu Changqing for a long time?

The fleet of the former model army passed by Chongming Island several times. He has been photographing Xu Changqing's reputation and is in a state of tolerance. Now, thinking about it, this matter is really blessed by our ancestors.

If he really followed the advice of several bastards under his command who were jealous of money and faced the Model Jun, then he might not be able to protect him.

Zhu Guangzhi is also a leader after all. He only looks at the aura of the main force of the Model Army not far away, so he is definitely not comparable to his mud legs.

He kowtowed to Xu Changqing and personally organized the camping of the Model Army and the evening banquet.

However, Xu Changqing was still a little worried about him and asked Wang Xi to stare.

When they left, Xu Changqing lit a bag of cigarettes and finally had time to come to the riverside and looked at the two centipede boats more carefully.

Only when you truly get closer can you understand that it is absolutely not unreasonable that Zhu Guangzhi has been rampant in the Yangtze River for several years and has always suppressed his opponents.

Xu Changqing originally thought that things like centipede ships were all wood, and they could be like a bear, but they were just spreading rumors.

However!

Only when you really stand here and feel this centipede-shaped ugly monster that is at least thirty meters tall, slightly flat but at least five or six tall, almost armed with iron wraps to the teeth, can you feel that shock!

It is no exaggeration to say that this is a big monster lying on the river, and it can scare people to death with just appearance.

Although Xu Changqing didn't know much about warships, after carefully looking at the configuration of these two centipede ships, he could understand what their advantages were.

Although it is because of angle problems at this time, I cannot carefully see how wide these two centipede ships are, but I can still see the same thing.

It's like a long flat box.

Even Xu Changqing counted how many paddlings were in person, which was definitely more than one hundred, about one hundred and two.

This means that the centipede ship had a few sailors who were paddling alone, just two hundred and forty people!

Plus its body shape.

It is conceivable that its explosive power on the river!

Even if it is a warship of the Model Army, as long as it is hit by its dragon-root-like horn, it will definitely be in danger.

However, Xu Changqing soon discovered the shortcomings of this centipede ship. There were only three or five cannons on one, and the other was only one cannon on the bow, and there was no other place.

Obviously, Zhu Guangzhi and his bandits were rampant on the river, and they did not rely on firearms to conquer the world, but also rely on brute force.

In Xu Changqing's memory, Westerners should have done this thing, but it should be mainly firearms, and its effectiveness is definitely stronger than Zhu Guangzhi's.

However, Zhu Guangzhi's ship is also equipped with a lot of long-range weapons such as catapults, big hard crossbows, and it can be seen that this guy still has a certain vision.

...

Xu Changqing stayed by the river for almost an hour. Zhu Guangzhi's banquet was ready and came to invite Xu Changqing to the table. Xu Changqing came to his senses. His whole body was already frozen by the cold wind, and he was a little unaware of it.

The road ahead is still slow and long!

Xu Changqing even had a little pain in his teeth at this time!

If he had traveled back to that era, Xu Changqing had to go on the battle with his shirtless himself and beat the boss who burned the drawings of the eunuch treasure ship to the point where he would not know him!

There are also those big bosses and maritime merchants who are stolen from the outside and just for their own selfish interests. They are really fucking killing their ten clans and they can't help but not relieve their hatred!

Otherwise, with the foundation left by the eunuch of the Three Treasures, the Ming Dynasty had already entered a new era of heyday!

The dinner was quite sumptuous.

Not only are there many seafood in the river, but also a lot of wild game, and the cooking tastes very good.

Just like, Zhu Guangzhi not only knows how to enjoy it, but also has a weak foundation.

Xu Changqing and Zhu Guangzhi had some conflicts of interest, but it was far from the time to break out. Moreover, Zhu Guangzhi was doing a good job of face at this time, which gave Xu Changqing enough face. Xu Changqing would not make him uncomfortable.

So this wine was extremely comfortable.

After three rounds of wine, five flavors of dishes.

Everyone has a lot of alcohol and the atmosphere is lively.

Xu Changqing smiled and said, "Old Zhu, you are still a good person. The wine tastes like a person's character. You have no problem with the wine tastes. You are a man! However, although you are a few years older than me, Xu Changqing, you can't be my brother. Do you know why this is?"
