For Liu Mingqi, since he took the imperial guards and border troops to the northwest for a walk, there has been no threat from the northwest since then.

This group of imperial guards and border troops have become the seeds of a new type of army. As long as the army is built around them and they are coupled with them to command the battle, unless the Uighurs, Western Qiang, and Tubo are also cheating, the northwest will be swept by the Dakang army at most three years later.

He only cares about two things most now.

The first is to have a few babies.

Although my parents were not in a hurry, their wives were anxious.

Under the urging of her mother, Wu Yeshuang had to accompany Liu Mingqi every other day, allowing the boy to rage.

Unfortunately, it still has no impact.

But Liu Mingjing had already successfully sowed the seeds, which put the young man in a stressful mood.

For this reason, he also specifically looked for Liu Bianque, but Liu Bianque did not find out what was wrong with him.

Liu Mingqi can only pray now, and Xiang Shaolong’s fault must not happen to him.

The key is that I am not wearing it, I am wearing it, and this will definitely not affect it!

As for the second thing, it is to do a good job of sailing, at least to control the Strait of Malacca and then rush into the Indian Ocean.

The rest is to let Dakang's merchants and the navy fight on their own.

Anyway, there are thousands of cannons in the Strait of Malacca, and the enemy cannot kill them.

Of course, the second thing seems simple, but it is impossible for Dakang to complete the path that took three to four hundred years to complete in Dakang.

Even though the West has not reached their peak, Liu Mingqi feels that it will probably take more than ten years to catch up.

The most important thing about voyage is ships.

Only after you have a ship can you start sailing, load cannons, have enough force to protect yourself, and then attack the enemy with it.

The boy hopes to cultivate a group of businessmen, who are not the kind of benevolent and moral people, but those who are willing to fight with the enemy strongly for commercial interests.

Don’t encounter enemies anymore. You should first ask what the other party does. You will only react until someone fires a cannon and attacks you.

Even if you don’t study Great Britain, you should at least learn about the beautiful country.

First threaten with force, control the situation, and then explore the other party's purpose.

The same is true for doing business.

As long as I do business, whoever dares to steal it, I will directly slap other businessmen out and occupy the market.

Who dares to have any obstacles to my business? Even the local government will have to bombard and attack them to surrender and open up the market.

Um!

This is what the Netherlands, Spain, Portugal, the United States, France and the British did back then.

But in this savage era of navigation, if you are not tougher, you will miss the biggest opportunity in a thousand years.

One step is different, one step is different.

When I was constantly behind and was beaten, Dakang was another person in the Qing Dynasty.

Liu Mingqi didn't want to be found out that she was a time traveler, and she was pointed at her portrait and scolded her, "What a shame for a time traveler!"

So after thinking about it, Liu Mingqi prepared to go to the Huaian Cao Transport Governor's Office.

It just so happened that ten four-masted sailboats were delivered during this period. As the "creator" of the four-masted sailboat, Liu Mingqi personally tested the various properties of the four-masted sailboat, and it was OK to find out the faults for it.

When reporting to Emperor Jinghe, Emperor Jinghe did not stop him.

Because since it has decided to purchase a large amount of grain in the past few years, the giant four-masted sailboat must be an important tool.

Compared with ordinary ships, the load capacity of four-masted sailboats is ten times or dozens of times that of them! They are well-deserved giants at sea!

If everyone discovers the benefits of a four-masted sailboat, there will be a lot of orders given to the Governor's Office, which will also help the shipyards of the Governor's Office grow and grow, and in the future, they can better support the Governor's Office, so as to raise more than 100,000 people.

I have to say.

Although the canal transportation yamen is very profitable, their expenses are also quite expensive.

If we can save some of this and be self-sufficient, the court's income will be higher, and we will develop better sooner and take revenge sooner.

As an emperor of the Central Plains, Dakang never suffered as much insult as in the past year, which was also an insult to Emperor Jinghe.

If he did not fight back firmly, the future history books would not be able to rely on him, and he would not have the face to meet his ancestors.

If you want to build a four-masted sailboat well, then Liu Mingqi is very important.

Liu Mingqi, who has been confirmed to basically not lead troops to fight, manages some commercial matters, and things on the ship that have never happened before. That is OK.

Not only Emperor Jinghe, but also Cao Yi, Ge Songdao and others turned a blind eye.

Wang Zhigeng, the chief censor who had opposed Liu Mingqi the most, even after Liu Mingqi returned from the Northeast, he asked for the death penalty for Liu Mingqi and Liu Mingjing.

But since Liu Mingqi and his friends went to the northwest for a walk, killed more than 50,000 Western Qiang and Uighur soldiers in one go, killed the emperor and prince of Tubo, causing chaos in Tubo, and defeated 20,000 Persian soldiers... After that, Wang Zhigeng did not say a word about the two brothers' faults.

It’s not that he was afraid of Liu Mingqi and Liu Mingjing, it was purely because these two brothers worked one by one twice, and they saved a lot of things for the shaky Dakang.

If we say that Dakang's peace now depends on Liu Mingqi and Liu Mingjing, it must be too exaggerating their role.

But I believe no one will object to the two brothers in this way.

So Wang Zhigeng considered himself unlucky and no longer targeted the two of them.

...

It's just August now, the water flow is very sufficient, and the Grand Canal has strong transportation capacity.

If Liu Mingqi arrives all the way to Huai'an, she doesn't have to transfer the ship, just a few ships will relay it.

As soon as possible, it takes five days to go directly to the Governor's Office in Huai'an.

But before Liu Mingqi moved, something came to him.

It is also the document from the canal shipyard.

Written by Miao Yan.

The main reason is to tell him that the price of tung oil has increased significantly this year and the price negotiations in the new year have broken down. Please think of a solution.

Miao Yan is even more cruel than Wang Zhigeng.

Last time, I helped him train a canal lord who was proficient in the "Qi Jiguang Formation", and then he maintained peace in Jiangnan. But can you believe that in the end he wrote a letter to execute me!?

Wang Zhigeng didn’t eat a piece of rice from me, but I am your Miao Yan’s benefactor!

Look, this is how this dog is repaying his benefactor.

But Liu Mingqi had no choice but to do anything to him.

It’s not because he has a good relationship with Miao Xiuxiu, but because Miao Yan has always only public intentions in his work, never corruption and abuse of power, never do evil, but only devotes himself to the people and the court.

Such a straight minister, only corrupt officials and powerful officials will harm him, and Liu Mingqi will naturally not touch him.

Anyway, he also has the Empress Dowager as his backer, so Miao Yan can't let the Empress Dowager kneel down to him and beg him to spare his grandson's life, right?

At that time, even the emperor would have to kill Miao Yan to calm the public's anger.

But it's strange that although Miao Yan wanted to execute Liu Mingqi several times in a row, when he encountered something, he often thought of Liu Mingqi the first time he was.

Because Miao Yan knew that Liu Mingqi not only had some bad ideas, but also a good person with good character and concern for the country and the people.

To use Liu Mingqi to put pressure on Liu Mingqi, there is nothing to be shy about him.

Miao Yan was not wrong.

Liu Mingqi cursed for a while, and then began to look carefully at the "tung oil negotiation dispute".

Tung oil has been an important material since ancient times.

It is different from tea, silk and porcelain, and it is a material with practical uses.

Tung oil is divided into raw tung oil and cooked tung oil. Raw tung oil is mainly in the pharmaceutical and chemical industries. Nowadays, ordinary people generally cannot contact it, and it is useless to contact it.

What people usually call cooked tung oil.

This cooked tung oil has more uses, and it can directly replace varnish and paint.

By the way.

Nowadays, varnish and paint are not easy to work with. Paint cut from trees will cause allergies to many people and are very difficult to deal with.

But cooked tung oil is different. It is made of natural tung oil and rarely has any allergic symptoms.

It can not only be used for maintenance of various machines, but can also be applied to floors, ceilings, wooden houses, pavilions, etc., moisture-proof, heat-resistant, acid-resistant, anti-corrosion-resistant, etc.

So the biggest use of cooked tung oil is to be used on the boat.

All kinds of ships must use tung oil so that they can be used well and last for several more years.

Generally speaking, every once in a while, such as one or two years, the boat must be re-purposed to make sure it can be used for a long time.

Dakang's shipping is quite developed. Not to mention other sea trade, just talking about the Grand Canal, there are thousands of ships sailing inside, all of which require tung oil.

Therefore, there is not much tung oil from Dakang that can be exported, so it basically uses it yourself.

Why can't the Navy Army develop?

Part of the reason is that they can't get tung oil.

The navy's group of borers, even military supplies and food, dared to sell them to Shiwei people, but they did not dare to sell tung oil. Only the fools would let them build warships and fight against us!

Without tung oil, especially in the northern environment, no matter how good the ship is, it will take a year or two.

Even if you have the best firewood, it will be useless!

Including during World War II, in order to get American aid, we also used tung oil to guarantee it.

At that time, tung oil was not outdated, which shows how important it is.

But this was also the luck of China at that time.

Originally, most of China had fallen, but the main production areas of tung oil were in the southwest, such as Yunnan, Sichuan, the Two Lakes Basin, etc.

So if the Japanese pirates cannot get it, we can use it to exchange for assistance.
