    "An Dong" is the second-generation sea-going ship built by Ye Chang's shipyard. Compared with the previous two ships, it not only has a larger carrying capacity, but also has some improvements in speed. Ye Chang remembers that sea-building can be achieved in this era.  Almost all of the ship's craftsmanship was used on this ship.  Therefore, the five-hundred-mile voyage from Dongmou to Lushun only took two days.  In the middle, we anchored at a small island unknown to Wang Changling. Wang Changling noticed that a simple pier was being built on the island. Hearing that it was also the work of the Andong Chamber of Commerce, he planned to set up a lighthouse here and send people to guard it. The ship entered Lushun  When we were entering the port, we happened to see two sea-going ships going out to sea one after another. The first one was similar in style to the "Anton", and the other was an ordinary sea-going ship made in the Tang Dynasty.  "Haha, that silly fish really doesn't know how to live or die." Seeing this scene, Ye An, who was introducing the situation in Lushun to Wang Changling, couldn't help laughing.  "The stupid fish that Ye Yugang said?" "The ship behind us is trying to find Aolai from the country." Ye An couldn't help laughing: "The huge profit from glass has attracted many people." "It turns out it is.  For glass, that's natural. I'm far away in Jiangning, and I heard that a businessman from Jiangning went to Chang'an to buy, willing to exchange a thousand gold for a set of glassware." Ye An chuckled. As a confidant of Ye Chang, he is one of the few who knows about glass.  One of the people of truth.  However, he would not mention this matter to Wang Changling. He just pointed to the two ships before and after him: "The prince has been on our ship along the way. Do you know the biggest difference between our ship and those old ships?" "Quick,  "Sure." "That's right, that ship wants to chase our ship. Isn't it a tortoise chasing a war horse?" Wang Changling smiled slightly, but didn't agree.  , are now dilapidated and not many people live there.  Ye An pointed to the north and said: "Only some Goguryeo, Buyeo and Silla people still live here. They are stubborn and refuse to naturalize, so they can only fend for themselves."  " "Ohit's just that people's hearts are not enough. I have seen Ye Sima's border policy, and he said that the four barbarians are jealous of China's wealth and will want to plunder and kill. If these foreign races are here, they will also have such thoughts.  What to do if it is chaos? "Why not? In March this year, Eleventh Lang went to Chang'an. The boldest among these relics wanted to make trouble, and they connected several places But I didn't know that Eleventh Lang had already been there when he left.  I just waited for them to explain. I killed a hundred people that day, chopped off a hundred heads, and ordered more than a thousand people to serve hard labor. There were more prisoners who were only responsible for food." Ye An said this with murderous intent.  Tengteng, with a kind of arrogance at the same time, Wang Changling had been in the frontier fortress, and was infected by this momentum. He patted the side of the boat and said loudly: "You should have such an ear, Han'er should have such an ear." "The eleventh man also said the same  Yes, the barbarians are not as good as the villains among the Han people. The villains are afraid of power but not virtuous. The barbarians fear power first and then be virtuous. If you want to make them obey, you must first make them obey." Lushun Port has only just been built. Compared with  Dongmou Port is not much better, but the open space shows Ye Chang's ambition for future planning.  As the ship docked, Ye An suddenly said "Hey" and his expression became a little serious.  "What's wrong?" "There's something wrong with the situation on the dock. It seems like something happened." Ye An said, and then smiled: "But there is no need to worry, Your Majesty. We are now well-equipped and there is nothing that can stop us."  Having said that, after Ye An landed on land, he still grabbed someone and asked: "What happened? The second-level alert flag was hung up?" "The Khitans are coming and have arrived at Jian'an City." Ye Anyi  Hearing this, he was not surprised but overjoyed: "It's finally here. We've said they were coming for a long time. We've been waiting for more than half a year, and now they're here." "Khitan people?" Wang Changling next to him was startled: "Why are they here?" "  Anlu Mountain couldn't stop them, so they naturally rushed to Liaodong." Ye An was very contemptuous when he mentioned Anlu Mountain: "But at the beginning of the year, I heard that they defeated the Pinglu Army, with an army of more than 20,000 people.  When they entered Xincheng Prefecture, they started to be on guard. As a result, they were wandering around Gaimou Prefecture and never went south. " Ye An gave a very rough answer. It was related to military strategy. Even though Ye Chang respected Wang Changling, he did not get authorization.  Before, Ye An didn't dare to tell him.  Wang Changling did not ask in detail, but asked another question: "What about the Level B alert just mentioned?" "Do you see that flag?" Ye An pointed to an orange flag floating in the sky.  The flag fluttered in the wind, like an orange, with the word B embroidered on it. Seeing this, Wang Changling suddenly realized: "Then there must be Class A and Class C?" "Yes, if it is a blue flag, it means everything is safe and sound.  ; If it is a yellow flag, it is Class C, and officials at all levels must stay in their positions and are not allowed to take a break; if it is an orange flag, it is Class B, and all personnel are canceling their break and returning to work; if it is a red flag, then  It is an emergency alert, a street ban is implemented, and all entertainment is suspended. If there are three red flags, it isIn an emergency, all civilians need to report to their respective so-called Zhechong Mansion to receive weapons and tasks.  " Speaking of this, Ye An saw that Wang Changling was a little nervous, so he smiled and said: "Don't worry, my lord, the three red flags that are so urgent have never appeared. Even the red flag has never been seen - only the thieves have attacked Lushun.  , there will be three red flags.  The thieves are still in Jian'an City, and the Goguryeo people in Jian'an City are blocking them. Our side is just preparing for war.  " "I don't know how many people there are in Khitan.  " "Eleventh Lang will tell the prince about this later.  Ye An smiled and said: "Please come with me, prince."  " Crossing the cement road leading to the port, Ye An led Wang Changling to a house. This is a two-story building, similar to a courtyard house. It is now the political center of Lushun and Ye Chang's residence. Up  On the second floor, footsteps were heard, and then Ye Chang appeared in front of Wang Changling. "I just heard that the prince is here, and I was waiting to greet him." Ye Chang said with a smile, "Your Majesty, please don't blame me for being negligent." Wang Changling said with a smile.  Xie, while looking at Ye Chang. Compared with the last time we met in Luoyang, the biggest change in Ye Chang is that he has grown a light beard. Other than that, he is as good as before. There is no reason for his status.  The arrogance brought about by the change. Cen Shen next to him also met with Wang Changling. Ye Chang took Wang Changling's arm and invited him into his office: "Please don't blame me for being simple.  " Wang Changling looked around. This government office is not big. The furnishings are very simple, just a few desks and chairs. But the surroundings are extremely bright. The plaster on the walls is evenly painted, and the cement on the ground is also very clean. "This is convenient.  Is it Ye Sima's government office?  Wang Changling felt a little incredible: "How to try a case here?"  "The place where the case is being tried is next door, but for ordinary cases, I don't need to try it. Brother Zhang will do it for me." "Zhang Hao?" "Exactly, what I do here is quite different from that in the Central Plains. The personnel are not prepared, so there is something wrong.  Zhouzhi." Ye Chang said with a smile.  Judicial power has always been an important power in the hands of local officials, and the concentration of judicial and administrative power in the hands of local officials will inevitably lead to no one to control the local officials.  Therefore, Ye Chang has made slight changes in Jili Prefecture. The judicial power is currently exercised by Zhang Hao, but the final judicial power is in his own hands.  However, Zhang Hao is not the candidate for judge that Ye Chang understands best. Now because of the lack of manpower, he can only act as a judge for the time being.  "Ye Sima is always unique in his actions" Wang Changling said casually, not sure whether it was praise or ridicule.  He was a little hesitant and fell into Ye Chang's eyes. Ye Chang smiled and said: "Just say whatever the prince has to say, here, no words are forbidden." "Then I want to know what the relationship between Ye Sima and Li Xianggong is like."  Wang Changling stared at Ye Changdao.  Although he is determined to help Ye Chang realize his lifelong ambition, there is still one thing that bothers him, and that is the relationship between Ye Chang and Li Linfu.  Although Cen Shen repeatedly stated in his letter that Ye Chang was not really a party member of Li Linfu, but that Li Linfu deliberately used him, Wang Changling still wanted to get his personal confirmation from Ye Chang.  Ye Chang was a little surprised: "My relationship with Li Xianggong Since the prince asked, I will answer truthfully. I was originally recommended by Mr. He to Li Shizhi, but Li Shizhi didn't use it, and his son insulted me. Later, I was ordered to serve in Long.  I was serving in front of the Right Army, but Huangfu Weiming tried to harm me in the army, but failed, which led to the death of Bian Lingcheng, the supervisor of the army. When Li Linfu learned about this, he wanted to use me to counter Huangfu Weiming, and I had to seek self-protection.  This is the beginning of my relationship with Li Linfu." Wang Changling was speechless when he heard this: the rumors are misleading.  "Later, Li Yong was greedy for my property and wanted to seize my ship, so I borrowed Li Linfu's help to get rid of him, and Li Linfu also borrowed my hand to get rid of his henchmen." Ye Chang added: "Now that I have come to Liaodong, there is no one in the court.  Rijin was slandered, so I had to make friends with Li Linfu to ask for help. I only wanted to seek immortality overseas, but I couldn't bear the fertile land in Liaodong to be contaminated by the smell of odor, so I recovered the land of Jilizhou and talked to the princes that day.  "The prince asked about the relationship between Ye Sima and Li Linfu," Cen asked when he saw that the atmosphere was a little tense.  "I had a good relationship with Zhang Jiuling, my old friend. Zhang Jiuling was framed by Li Linfu and resigned. I had some grievances, so he was demoted from Chang'an and lived in Lingnan." Wang Changling said solemnly: "This is an old thing, you two may not know about it.  "That's it." Ye Chang and Cen Shen looked at each other and finally understood why Wang Changling hesitated. He and Li Linfu originally had such a feud. Now in the eyes of the world, Ye Chang is an out-and-out Li Linfu party.  If Wang Changling hadn't been so frustrated staying in Jiangning, he would never have come to work for Ye Chang.  "Your Majesty, let me tell the truth. No matter whether Your Majesty comes or not, in a short period of time, I must maintain a cooperative relationship with Li Linfu, and sometimes I have to use him." Ye Chang saluted Wang Changling: "I also ask Your Majesty for your forgiveness." Wang Changling was a little bitter.  typical: "I don't dare, I don't dare. I have your sincerity and I am willing to serve I just don't know why you want me to do it?" "Deputy envoy of Jili Prefecture Yingtian." Ye Chang said: "This is an official position awarded by the imperial court, but we  I have an office here, called the Agriculture Department, and I am in need of a secretary." "The Agriculture Department?" "That's right. Farming is the foundation of the country. Without agriculture, there will be no stability.  "This department." Ye Chang decided to appoint Wang Changling as the director of the Agriculture Department after careful consideration. After all, Wang Changling was older. It was impossible for someone over fifty to serve as a staff member with the army, and his personality was not suitable for working with the army.  When getting along with colleagues, it is this agriculture department that can give full play to his strengths from the bottom.  Wang Changling would not feel sorry for the fact that the Agricultural Bureau was in charge of common affairs rather than an important position. He was more concerned about what the Agricultural Bureau should do specifically.  After hearing his question, Ye Chang explained: "Farming in Jili Prefecture is under the control of the Agriculture Department. The distribution of Yongye fields, the cultivation and promotion of grain seeds, the purchase and storage of grain, the improvement and innovation of farm tools, livestock and poultry  "Shepherding" He talked about a bunch of things in succession, and Wang Changling's originally serious face gradually smiled: The more detailed Ye Chang spoke, the more concerned he was about these matters, and he was even more likely to come here on his own  Previously, these matters were under the jurisdiction of Ye Chang himself.  After saying this, Ye Chang added: "Now that the autumn harvest is over, there are two other things to do in addition to what I just said. The first is to take advantage of this season to build water conservancy projects, build dams, store water, and dig.  Ditches to prepare for floods and droughts; the second is to prepare for farming in the coming yearespecially to promote cotton and cultivate rice." "Rice? Cotton?" Wang Changling asked.  "I have been in Liaodong for more than a year. With the climate in Liaodong, there is no problem in growing rice for one season." Ye Chang said with a smile: "It's just the water and land needed for rice, and what kind of rice is suitable for Liaodong. These all need to be explored, so I urge the Agriculture Department to  In autumn and winter, preparations must be made for the trial planting of rice next year. As for cotton, the clothes that Brother Cen and I wear are all made of cotton. This year¡¯s cotton will also be collected. I asked someone to show the prince how to pick cotton.  The whole process of removing seeds, spinning and weaving, the prince will know that this material is far better than hemp. "For Wang Changling, these things are much more interesting than being pinched in the position of Jiang Ningcheng when he was a boy.  As I fish and farm at home, I am no stranger to these things. Now I know that they will be my future work, and I feel a bit more familiar with them.  "There is also the prince's salary. There are two salaries. One is paid according to the court system, and the other is paid by the Liaodong General Manager's Office." Ye Chang said with a smile: "The prince is a gentleman and is shy about talking about things, but I am  We can't let the prince live without food I can't touch the court system, but I can take it as the Liaodong Governor's Office." "This is better than Brother Zhang" Cen Shen was half-truth and half-false.  Di Xianmu said: "Your Majesty, please treat us to a banquet to congratulate you." Wang Changling didn't know what figure he received compared to Ye Chang. Cen saw that he was a little confused, so he stretched out three fingers: "If you earn three hundred points a month, you will have enough money in three years."  Wang Changling was shocked by this figure: Why is it that Jili Prefecture¡¯s salary is calculated entirely in money, rather than in grain and cloth?  He was still waiting to ask again, but at this moment, the sound of hurried footsteps came. Wang Changling looked over there and saw a man in iron armor approaching: "Sima, the entire army is ready, please give the order." Ye  Chang confessed his crime to Wang Changling, and then turned back to Cen Shen and said: "Brother Cen, please receive the prince first. I'll excuse you first." Seeing Ye Chang leaving in a hurry, Wang Changling still couldn't hold it back and asked Cen Shen: "What's this?  "Yes?" "There's going to be a war," Cen Shen replied.
