During the chat, Mao Geng learned that Jiang Kui met Chen Liang, which was a thing that could be said to be a thing that would be the result of another thing.

Chen Liang is now a advocate and practitioner of vernacular Chinese in Song Dynasty, and is moving further and further on the road of popularization. This is also based on its foundation. Chen Liang's lyrics, such as "I haven't seen the Southern Master for a long time, and I talk about the northern crowd." It is like the words. Chen Liang turned to vernacular Chinese, which is not a sudden change in style.

Chen Liang and Jiang Kui had a deep conversation, which finally made Jiang Kui understand that music must go the same way. To make his music like Chen Liang's novels, it must be popular among the general public. Having market appeal is the king. Sanyuan Tower's recent limelight over Jincui Tower is an example.

After that, Jiang Kui and Chen Liang collaborated on "A Laugh in the Sea" with the intention of drinking, which felt good. They also got the new song of "Yi Jian Plum" from Sun Feier. Jiang Kui slightly modified the song "Yi Jian Plum" and showed more charm. Therefore, in Chen Liang's view, if this continues, even if Jiang Kui cannot enter the official position in the future, as long as he is enlightened and willing to change his past style, Jiang Kui's new song will be sold well.

Regarding the escort, Mao Geng and Chen Liang discussed it for a long time and decided to find Han Tuozhou first. Usually, every leader who is difficult to talk to has a good right-hand man around him. Han Tuozhou is such a good person.

Han Tuozhou came from a famous family and relied on his kindness to become an official position. He always looked up to Chen Liang, who was famous for his time. Not to mention, Chen Liang's fantasy novels are very popular. This time, Chen Liang went to Chameng City, implying the profound meaning of unity and unity. Although it was a civil exchange, he actually had official intentions. Therefore, Han Tuozhou showed considerable enthusiasm for Chen Liang's arrival.

It was Han Tuozhou and Chen Liang's first meeting, but Han Tuozhou spoke with Brother Fu and seemed very intimate.

Han Tuozhou did not think deeply about Chen Liang coming to Penghu, thinking that he was just coming to meet Mao Geng, and that Chen Liang wanted to meet him specifically, Han Tuozhou thought that this might be for the sake of mediation in Chameng, and perhaps Chen Liang wanted to learn from him some of the officials' thoughts on the situation in Chameng.

Han Tuozhou naturally avoided suspicion when it comes to the political situation of Chameng, so after the greetings, he just chose the matter of Chameng's palace:

"Brother Tongfu, I heard that this transaction in Chameng is extremely profitable, which is awesome! But I think that Brother Tongfu will return after about two or three months! You must come to Taiwan at that time. Maybe Brother Tongfu may not be able to like the work of building a house here, but there are so many houses to be built. Brother Tongfu will not stop taking over the work of our Taiwan just because he built the palace."

Chen Liang bowed and said:

"Mr. Han respects me, Mr. Chen, and can take care of our business. I'm thanking me in advance! However, if I go to Chameng here, I'm afraid it will take one or two years to go there, and I can't serve Lord Han for the time being."

Han Tuozhou hurriedly asked:

"Do you have to go there for so long? Brother Tongfu also has to do it himself and lay bricks and tiles?

Chen Liang didn't care about Han Tuozhou's intentional jokes and just said:

"Mr. Han! The matter of the Cham City Palace was negotiated by Brother Yi Sheng. I just picked up a ready-made one. But since I, Chen Liang, have to make some achievements. Lord Han, think about it, since Cham City has built a new palace, should Annan be built? Should I build a real wax? To be hiding Lord Han, I want to build an old wax? I want to go here, and I want to build a new wax. These three kingdoms have always been comparing, so I should have a good chance. As Lord Han knows, we still have a trick. When we go to one place, we start building a model building, and then someone takes the bait. It's just that the one we want to catch is their king. Lord Han thinks about it, and this matter is not urgent. If the Three Kingdoms run, it will be at least one year, and two years are not long."

Han Tuozhou didn't expect that Chen Liang had such ambitions and couldn't help but praise him:

"Brother Tongfu is indeed a hero, I admire you! I wish Brother Tongfu a success here!"

Chen Liang smiled and said:

"Mr. Han, I came here to visit this time to invite Mr. Han to do a business together. This business is profitable, and others may not be able to do it. After thinking about it, only Mr. Han has such strength."

When Han Tuozhou heard this, he became a little concerned. Although there were several business taboos in the officialdom of the Song Dynasty, no one had followed them. Now if an official does not run a little business at home, he will be embarrassed to say hello to others when he goes out. Han Tuozhou himself is doing business, but he just doesn't come out directly, and said with a smile:

"The most powerful business person in the world is Mao Yisheng. If you have Mao Yisheng in partnership with Brother Fu, do you still need to find me, Han!"

At this time, Chen Liang no longer kept it in hiding and said bluntly:

"Sir Han, I'm looking at the fleet under the Chinese and Koreans."

After Chen Liang said this, he paid attention to Han Tuozhou's reaction and then continued:

"When I went to Chameng here, Annan and Zhenwax needed to transport cement and other things continuously, and then transported the coal there to Taiwan. There was at least tens of millions of kilograms of transportation a month. The ship was not empty. After calculating, if my subordinates did not have dozens of large ships, they would not be able to deal with it at all. Therefore, I thought of Lord Han, who transported coal from Fujian, and transported coal from Chameng as well. It might be a loss for transportation from Fujian, and transported coal from Fujian, and transported coal from Chameng as a loss. It would be a huge profit to transport coal from Chameng, and it would not disappoint the court."

Han Tuozhou understood Chen Liang's idea and knew that it was true. Whether it was cement or other goods, it would be very profitable to transport it to Chameng City, and then he could take coal on the way back. Chen Liang said that there was coal produced in Chameng City. How could Han Tuozhou know the truth? Of course, he believed it. Han Tuozhou thought that if this was the case, the huge fleet of his subordinates would not only not have to be supported by money, but also profitable. However, many military generals in Emperor Gaozong were doing business and raising troops, invading the country's wealth and profit. The generals became popular, which made Emperor Gaozong fearful, resulting in the later act of cutting off military power and having the lessons of the past. This was not a rash move.

Although Han Tuozhou was in charge of the food and grass logistics, he was also leading the army of the Song Dynasty. Thinking of this section, Han Tuozhou said solemnly:

"Brother Tongfu, don't harm me. The army cannot do business. This is the iron rule of this dynasty. This matter must not be done!"

Seeing Han Tuozhou like this, Mao Geng interrupted at the right time:

"Mr. Han, now he has successfully taken down Taiwan. The officials thought that from then on, the navy transport fleet could be divided into two, and those who transport food and grass to the navy and land armies were still part of the navy. In addition, half of the ships and sailors could be divided into sea trade, and they could also transport coal and various substances to Taiwan. In this way, not only will they no longer pay for money, but they will also be profitable. The money the government gave to Taiwan is limited, and if they only spend but not make money, they would probably be unsustainable."

According to the previous plan, after the 10,000 troops arrived in Taiwan, at least 7,000 people would be converted into workshop craftsmen, construction craftsmen or peasants. Since the army could be transferred, the navy could be carried out according to the rules. Han Tuozhou's eyes lit up and felt that there was something feasible. The one million trumpet of the official family was really limited, and now they spent money like water, and it would be difficult to sustain if they did not open up their wealth.

Mao Geng’s proposal was just a demobilization of part of the navy and turned to a state-owned ocean trading company. I don’t know if Han Tuozhou can accept it. Only after Han Tuozhou accepts it can he persuade Zhao Han.

Mao Geng felt that he still needed to be provoked, so he added:

"Don't Lord Han remember the story Xia Guan told on the boat!"

Han Tuozhou naturally remembers the story of Mao Geng revising Zheng He's seven voyages to the West. He thought to himself that he made amazing profits in the sea trade. Even if he dominates the other side, why not give it a try?

Han Tuozhou's mind was already moving, and he just said:

"I'm afraid that this matter will come to the court, and some people will have to criticize us for profits with the people."

Chen Liang waved his hand and said with a smile:

"Mr. Han doesn't have to worry. Mr. Han's fleet is dedicated to maritime trade with other countries. He does not compete for profit with the people at home, but also with merchants from other countries. What's wrong with him?"

Han Tuozhou nodded and finally recognized Chen Liang and Mao Geng's proposal.

Later, Chen Liang reciprocated and proposed various ways to develop Taiwan, which were mostly Chen Liang's own ideas. Chen Liang's influence was extraordinary after all. Others might not care about it, but once Chen Liang said it, Han Tuozhou felt that it was reasonable.

Zhao Yan also knew that Chen Liang had arrived in Penghu, but Chen Liang had squatted in the cell twice before, and went to Chameng City to be sensitive diplomatic, so he was even more inconvenient to intervene. Zhao Yan felt that it was more cautious in this matter, so he did not arrange to meet Chen Liang.

After Han Tuozhou considered everything clearly, he came to see Zhao Han. Zhao Han was admiring a piece of natural gold sent from Taipei. This piece of natural gold was dug out by the Song army in a mountain. It weighed about twenty taels and was slightly white. It was supposed to be because of silver. It seemed that gold was produced there, which was really a big joy. In addition, the sweet potatoes also had tender buds, which were all good signs.

When Han Tuozhou saw that Zhao Han was happy, he took the opportunity to talk about Chen Liang's initiative to write a letter to Zhu Xi and Lu Jiuyuan and invite them to come to Taiwan to run a school. Zhu Xi and Lu Jiuyuan have many disciples. Even if one of them is willing to come, they can gather the popularity of Taiwan.

Of course, Zhao Han was reluctant to ask for this. Zhu Xi was in Fujian, while Lu Jiuyuan was far away in Jiangxi. Lu Jiuyuan seemed to have no deep friendship with Chen Liang. Maybe Zhu Xi could come. It would be good if he could invite Zhu Xi, but the houses for running schools must be built for others. This is another amount of money! But no matter what, it would be great if he could come.

Han Tuozhou then said that Chen Liang suggested that one of the navy troops be converted into maritime trade and business, which naturally means that there are benefits but no harm. Han Tuozhou also knew that Zhao Han was worried about these days, two things: one is how to attract the people of the Song Dynasty to Taiwan next, and the other is that people have to spend money on the way, and they have to spend money to settle when they arrive in Taiwan. Speaking of immigration costs, it is really a bottomless pit.

Because of this, Zhao Han wishes that he could make more money. After all, it is hard to say how high the output is in Taipei's gold production. The wealthy group of people in the Song Dynasty were the maritime merchants. Zhao Han weighed it for a while and thought it would be a try. It would not be a small-scale one and he could make the decision. If he really wanted to make a big fuss, he would have to submit it to the court for approval.

Han Tuozhou knew that the matter of Hai Trade had been passed by Zhao Han, and he was very happy at the moment.
