The three days of meeting with Cui Zhouping are probably the most relaxing three days of Liu Yi in these years. Regardless of the world, most of them are just a few jokes, talking about the past, talking about the children, and remembering the dead old people.

This is two feelings with my wife. The feeling of letting go of all restraints has not been felt for many years. After saying goodbye to Cui Zhouping, Liu Yi felt that the whole person was refreshing.

In the six years of Yanxi (AD 242), Liu Yi and Lu Lingqi began to run on the Yangtze River. More than a dozen steamships successively caused the progress of the Yangtze River Bridge to begin. At the same time, Liu Yi also built a sea in Qu A The shipyard specializes in casting various types of steam ships.

Because of the huge volume of the steam engine itself, the resulting steam ship is much larger than the original largest building ship.

By the next year, the steam ship began sailing along the coast. At the same time, Liu Yi's disciples began to cooperate with Liu Yi to help build water conservancy and lay rail cars around the Central Plains.

In the eight years of Yanxi, Dahan ’s marine sailors successfully crossed the Bohai Sea, arrived in Sanhan, and arrived in Fusang in the same year, and officially opened maritime trade. Regardless of the attitude of these Fan states, both Liu Yi and the Secretary of the Central Government feel that they are temporarily doing business. Mainly trade, after all, the territory of the Han Dynasty is already very broad. The court has begun to feel difficult in governance. If you expand the territory to overseas, let ’s not mention attacking. It is a lot of trouble to control the sea alone. .

It ’s better to start trade than to spend a lot of food, especially when Liu Yi was in Yanxi ’s eight years, he got a boat of glass beads to exchange a lot of gold, silver and sea treasures from the land of Sanhan and Fusang. Many people seem to see a fortune.

The glass bead is not a rarity for the Han. Nowadays, in basic county-level cities, it is not used by every household, but it is also very common. But before Liu Yi fired the glass, this kind of thing was called Liuli, worth the price!

Liu Yi's approach opened many people's minds.

The Hans have been crazy about construction under the auspices of Liu Yi in the past two years. Although they pay a lot of taxes every year, almost all of them are invested in the construction of the Central Plains and other places. Not to mention Liu Chan. Taking cloth as salaries, although there are many, but who can get so much food?

Most of them are still sold by these courtiers. Now under Liu Yi's operation, the people have a lot of money.

Today, I have seen a path of wealth, not to mention the old silk and porcelain, but to say that the new things that have appeared in recent years, if they are placed in countries other than Han, they can all be sold as treasures.

Since the beginning of the ninth year of Yanxi, a large number of merchants or families began to send people out, and Liu Yi also sold a batch of steam ships to some family members after asking Liu Chan for instructions.

However, because steam ships need to consume a lot of coal, even if they can afford the ship, they may not be able to burn coal. Liu Yi and Ma Jun and other masters in the shipyards of Yueyang and Jiangxia have developed large sailing ships suitable for sailing. Compared with steam ships, the cost is relatively close to the people, and ordinary merchants can afford it, and Tiangongfang produces it. It is absolutely top-notch in this era, whether it is beautiful, practical or sturdy.

Under the trend of interest, a large number of merchants began to devote themselves to sailing.

However, in this era, nautical technology is an exploration stage. At that time, even the ships that returned to the sea did not even return half of them. During the ten years of Yanxi, Fusang and Sanhan sent messengers. For this reason, Liu Chan also specially Liu Yi recalled the DPRK-China deliberations.

"Tai Fu!" Liu Chan and Liu Yi walked in the garden of the imperial palace, frowning: "These three Han and Fusang sent messengers to the suicide one after another, saying that many of my Han's fleet were looting in Fusang and Sanhan. If I want to make it for me, what does Taifu think about this matter? "

"I don't know what you all said?" Liu Yi asked instead of answering directly.

"Some differences, many people feel that these people have tarnished our national authority, and they should be mobilized by the navy. Others feel that these people have not violated our laws of the Han Dynasty and should not send troops to die." Liu Chan looked at Liu Yi helplessly: " The most important thing is that I think both sides have a reason, so I specifically asked Si Kong to come back to discuss this matter. "

"This matter is actually not unstoppable." Liu Yi thought for a while: "If those three Koreas and Fusang are not suspended overseas, His Majesty can regard them as the former Huns and Western Regions. But in the Western Regions or the Xiongnu and Xianbei murders and looting, would His Majesty be convicted? "

"Naturally not." Liu Chan shook his head.

"The reason is the same." Liu Yi smiled and said: "Moreover, my big han is unmatched, so I haven't attacked it in the past, but it does not mean that I won't do it in the future. Nowadays, this nautical is at an emerging stage. People have lived on the sea all the year round, and they have a deeper insight into nautical skills. These are all my experiences of a great man in the future. I ca n’t buy them with money, so please ask your majesty to think twice. "

"But Tai Fu Ke had thought, if these people plunder into nature, will they return to Dahan ..." Liu Chan worried.

"I'm not afraid of His Majesty's jokes. When the minister and his wife had not assisted Emperor Xian in his early years, he had been a bandit for a while. Your majesty knows how the bandit survived?" Liu Yi smiled and asked.

"I also heard about it." Liu Chan chuckled and said: "But the hero does not ask for his origin, can Taifu elaborate."

"The bandits and the gangsters can actually be regarded as a small town. They are very friendly to the residents nearby. Sometimes they even help one or two. In exchange, they are sheltered by the people nearby. When the officers and soldiers come to destroy them, Ordinary people will protect them, or report information, or deliberately give wrong messages to officers and soldiers. "

Looking at Liu Chan's surprised eyes, Liu Yi smiled and said: "The people also have steelyards in their hearts. If they cooperate with the government, the bandits can run into the mountains but the officers will go, but the bandits may come back. It is impossible to stay there all the time. How can the people themselves face the **** revenge of the bandits? "

"But if you don't care, don't you condone this bandit collusion, what if you become a force in the future, and in turn threaten my hero?" Liu Chan asked.

"It's not completely irrelevant, we can try to legalize these people and formulate a set of rules and regulations!" Liu Yisi said: "The establishment of several naval offices along the coast, these pirates can be used as reserve forces, we can help They deal with the looted property, but they need to hand over 50% of what they have obtained. In addition, they can choose some powerful ones from these pirates and use them for their own purposes. I will deal with some of the problems that my official is not suitable for him to solve. Of course, The most important point is that we can't attack our Han merchant ships in any way. When necessary, we can also provide assistance. For those pirates who are not willing to be managed by our Hans, we will send an army to destroy them, and count them as one of these vassals. Explain. "

"This ..." Liu Chan frowned slightly.

"Of course, this is just the suggestion of the minister. After all, this sea is too big, and my navy is still far from being able to run across the sea. Instead of wasting energy on killing these pirates, it is better to use it for my own sake and contribute to my man. At the same time, my big man does not have to pay for military supplies and other materials for them, but can also get a lot of input. "Liu Yi laughed.

"Tai Fu's remarks are indeed reasonable, but I can't give the band of pirates an official right?" Liu Chan smiled bitterly.

"Without the official ban, give them a few titles, which means they can plunder any country or force other than my lord. When my lord needs them, he has to contribute to my lord, but on weekdays, he cannot. Enjoying the treatment of Han officials, my Han is at most only a cooperative relationship to provide them with sales. In addition, if there are really suitable talents, they can also be absorbed into our Hans regular navy. "Liu Yisi said:" Of course, this A complete set of bills is needed. This minister does not understand very well. Your majesty should discuss with Zhuge Cheng. "

Liu Chan nodded thoughtfully and said, "Alright, Taifu returned this time. I haven't asked how the Yangtze River Bridge is going?"

"The project is not over half, and it is estimated that it will be five years." Liu Yi shook his head and said: "However, once this bridge is built, it will have many advantages for our big han. It is easier to communicate between the north and the south and integrate resources across the strait. After that, the infrastructure construction in all parts of the Central Plains can also come to an end. The minister is ready to go to the Western Regions to preside over the construction of the railway. If this railway can be built, it may be faster for His Majesty to go to Dawan than Luoyang. "

"Taifu is now in his sixtieth year. He should have nostalgic days. Why should he work so hard? How can I be patient?" Liu Chan smiled bitterly.

"Because of the lack of time, the minister wanted to keep some things for future generations in his lifetime, making my lord the top of all nations in this world, and bringing all nations to the dynasty!" Liu Yi laughed: "Human life is very short. of."

"Tai Fu Zhen Nai is also the pillar of the country!" Liu Chan sighed: "But this time, Tai Fu still rested for a few days. I have saved a lot of words in these years and I want to ask Tai Fu for advice."

"Since your majesty is alive, how dare you not follow me?" Liu Yi nodded with a smile. He hasn't returned to Chang'an for a long time, and he wanted to see his good-grandchildren, and several old friends just took this opportunity Get together.

"Your Majesty, Taifu!" Huang Hao trot to the two and bowed in courtesy.

"What's the matter?" Liu Chan asked Huang Hao.

"Chief Jin Wu Deng Ai is outside the palace, please see Tai Fu." Huang Hao bowed.

"I came to the palace to see Taifu? Deng Shizai wanted to rob someone with me?" Liu Chan raised his eyebrows and smiled, "But what's the matter?"

"His mother is critically ill and wants to see Taifu ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ Uh ..." Liu Chan heard something dumb and looked at Liu Yi's eyes strangely. The relationship between Liu Yi and Mother Deng ... in the court In particular, there are many versions in the palace, and Liu Chan does not know which one is true.

"Your Majesty, Chen has some personal affairs to deal with, please let Rong Chen retreat." Liu Yi changed his face slightly and greeted Liu Chan quickly.

"It's okay, Sikong will go by himself." Liu Chan nodded.

"Come back!"

Looking at Liu Yi's hurrying back, Liu Chan groped his chin, with a bit of curiosity in his eyes. Liu Yi was a famous spoiled wife, who had never been concubine in her life, but was not clear with Deng Ai's mother. Liu Yi's wife is more fierce. After all, it is a number of top-ranking characters who will fight from the young to the big. Liu Chan met Lu Lingqi at that time. Has the relationship been as close as a sister?

Women are incomprehensible, Taifu's women ... not only incomprehensible, but terrible!

Liu Chan shook his head, carrying his hands, and looking for Xinna's concubine, he was ready to discuss women ...
