It was already dusk when Peng Qinfang left the palace.

There was still a trace of rain floating in the sky, which was the warm and cold season. Peng Qinfang sat on the four-wheeled carriage, feeling the feeling of the wheels rolling on the stone road, while pondering Zhao Xing's almost stubborn attitude just now.

Peng Qinfang felt that the emperors of this era were a bit pitiful. Apart from staying in the palace, at most, they could go to Lin'an City when they needed to have fun with the people. As for wanting to go far, there was no door!

From Zhao Xing's standpoint, it is actually easy to understand.

Although Zhao Xing was gentle, he was an emperor with a strong desire to control himself. Before that, everything in the Song Dynasty was under the control of Zhao Xing.

Now suddenly there is a territory called the Special Administrative Region, where many unexpected things happen one after another, emerging one after another. Fortunately, these new things are beneficial to the Song Dynasty.

But no matter what, such uncontrollable things are happening all the time, and they are still happening. As an emperor with a strong desire to control, if Zhao Xing is only satisfied with listening to the report, then it is not Zhao Xing!

What's more, Zhao Xing was also very ambitious in his early years, but the current situation could not be exciting, and slowly, it wiped out the ambitions of that year. Now suddenly, with Mao Geng and the special zone, the current situation became more and more exciting. Zhao Xing was once again full of passion, which was inevitable.

Well, the most important thing is that the emperor is also curious. It is indeed reasonable for Zhao Xing to go to see the special zone that has been performing miracles. As for the security issues that the two prime ministers are worried about, think about Zhao Xing as he is so old, and he may never go again if he doesn't go. Among the tourism army that went to Taiwan in later generations, it is said that retirees are the absolute main force, and probably have the same thoughts. Therefore, no matter how hard the two of them advise, they will never be able to change their minds.

The carriage was walking on the street, with bustling Lin'an crowds everywhere, and the carriage could not run at speed. The four-wheeled carriage that Peng Qinfang was riding was of course produced by Mao's Group. Due to the shock absorption springs, the wooden wheels rolled on the unpredictable stone slab road, sometimes slow and sometimes fast, and swaying. The land traffic in the Song Dynasty was still too backward, but that was good. When Peng Qinfang thought of the countless car exhausts in later generations and the dim sky under the haze, he felt that this original city was really good.

If you have to improve land transportation, maybe you can try to get on an electric car, which will at least not emit exhaust gas. Of course, it is not possible now, so you can get rid of the miserable battery technology at this stage. What a big battery!

Along the way, Peng Qinfang was full of thoughts. When the carriage arrived at the mansion, Peng Qinfang was still thinking, until the servant called him, Peng Qin came to his senses.

Seeing He Chian, Old Peng hesitated for a moment and told the news that Zhao Xing was about to make a southern tour.

He Chian returned from a distance two days ago. As a member of Wugang in his previous life, He Chian still knows a lot about China's mineral resources. After He Chian arrived in Lin'an, he went to Jiangxi soon. He Chian went to Jiangxi and went to visit Xin Qiji first. He Chian graduated from Chinese and highly praised Su Xin. He is a fan of Xin Qiji. However, He Chian did not leave for the sake of chasing stars. He Chian went here to provide Taobao clues for Xin Qiji's Wugang Holdings.

First, we found the tungsten ore that Dayu locally called black stone.

Secondly, it is recommended that Xin Qiji develop coal mines in Pingxiang in large quantities. By the way, coal mines began to be mined in Pingxiang in the Tang Dynasty. The coal mine shaft of the Tang Dynasty, Lufengchang Well, remained in later generations and was even developed into a tourist attraction by those who are interested.

It can be seen that Pingxiang has a history of more than a thousand years. Pingxiang in later generations is known as the "Coal Capital in Jiangnan", which shows the abundant coal resources in Pingxiang, but this is not the most critical, because Xinhua's coal resources are also extremely rich. The most critical thing is that Pingxiang's coal quality has an incomparable advantage, and high-quality coke can be refined with Pingxiang coal. In 1914, Pingxiang's coke won the best prize at the 1914 Italian Rome World Expo.

Therefore, it is impossible to put such high-quality resources without developing them. The Special Zone is about to make steel and cannot lack high-quality coke. Therefore, He Chian's mission here is to do Xin Qiji's work and mine the coal mine in Pingxiang as soon as possible. If Xin Qiji is unmoved, He Chian can only choose the second option, which is to start the stove by himself.

It is impossible not to say that Xin Qiji's economic vision has always been good, and there is no need for He Chian to spend too much effort. Xin Qiji was doing good and immediately arranged for exploration. Jiangxi was Xin Qiji's land. Soon, an "Anyuan Coal Mine" with the same name as history was launched. I believe that soon, high-quality coke will be continuously transported to the Special Administrative Region.

After dealing with the tungsten ore and coking coal, He Chian finally returned to Lin'an.

Now that Peng Qinfang said that the emperor was determined to go on a southern tour, He Chian felt that it was good to hide in the deep palace and listen to the report. Naturally, it would be better to have a real experience than to investigate.

However, there are also concerning aspects, He Chian pondered:

"If Zhao Xing inspects the special zone and finds that if the arms are fully converted into full production, he can produce 100,000 rifles and hundreds or thousands of cannons a year, and once the old emperor has a whim, he will suddenly swear to the Northern Expedition, it will not be a good thing. Lao Peng, what do you think?"

"No, people of my age, do you think that if they have been emperor for decades, they will be an impulsive angry young man!"

"Haha, too."

After hearing Peng Qinfang's words, He Chian felt that his own seemed a little redundant, but when he thought of Lu Yi, He Chian had new concerns:

"You said that Xiao Lu likes to show off, but it's okay to show off. This kid has made all his bad ideas, which is the strategy of moving westward that he has developed. I hope His Majesty the Emperor will not be fooled by him and choose the bullshit strategy of moving westward. If the Emperor goes to the Special Administrative Region, our Time Travel Gang Zhongxing may also have a ball-like game like Xiao Lu fooling us into going westward. When he comes back, he will go to war with Dali Country. Do you think there is such a possibility?"

"Look at what you said, among us time travelers, except Xiao Lu, they are all rational people. They all know that with the current military strength of the Southern Song Dynasty, even if they are equipped with guns and cannons, they may not be able to defeat the Jin soldiers 100%. The northern expedition is definitely not good now. The difficulty of advancing west is not small. The mountains are high and the road is long, so logistics is difficult to guarantee. Don't worry, no one will agree with Xiao Lu's inexplicable advancing westward strategy."

Lao Peng said it well, saying that time travelers are rational. In fact, time travelers have another attribute, which is fear of death. Fighting Jin soldiers is a high-risk act of seeking death. Fighting Dali Kingdom also has several risks. Only fighting the barbarians in primitive society is an easy and freehand job.

Low risks, high returns, and seeking profits and avoiding harm are the creeds of traveling through the crowd. Therefore, of course, we strongly advocate the southward advance, and the best strategy is to bully the barbarians.

"Yes, when I arrived in Lin'an, I also saw the imperial guards of the Song Dynasty. The Song Dynasty had not started war for almost 30 years. After peace, the Song Dynasty's master soldiers had a lot of combat power and wanted to fight a big question mark. I also talked to Xin Qiji. Xin Qiji was also worried about the lack of training in the Song Dynasty. Hehe, of course, I also told General Xin that in the future, it will be the world of guns and cannons. After three or five years, the Song Dynasty will be equipped with all kinds of guns and cannons. It is a little worse than bravery, and there is no big problem. Haha."

"Xin Qiji is now the head of Wugang Holdings and has become an accomplished industrialist of this era. However, he is far away from military and political affairs and cannot govern the country and pacify the world. I don't know what he thinks."

Lao Peng also likes Xin Ci. By reading Xin Ci, you can read a lot of complaints and of course a lot of passion. This person who takes the world as his own responsibility and makes achievements every day will not feel very comfortable.

He Chian smiled bitterly when he heard this:

"To be honest, I don't want to see the dignified General Xin Qiji and Xin mining for the rest of his life. However, I guess he won't be able to lead troops in this life. In fact, he really wants to lead troops, wipe out the Jin soldiers and return to the Central Plains. This is Xin Qiji's dream. Unfortunately! I'm afraid there is no chance."

Although Xin Qiji, who has lofty ambitions, is mining and digging, his ambition is definitely not in mining, which is undoubtedly true.

"'The sunset building is in the sound of the broken geese, the wanderer in the south of the Yangtze River looked at Wu hook, and patted the railings, no one could see it, and the intention of climbing.', you said, can the emperor not understand the meaning of Xin Jiaxuan's poem!"

He Chian likes Xin Qiji's poem very much. He listened to Lao Peng's chanting the next stanza, while recalling the first stanza, "The sky of Chu has a thousand miles of clear autumn, and the water follows the sky and leaves endless autumn. The distant eyes are far away, offering sorrow and hatred, and jade hairpin and snail buns." He Chian said to himself, of course the emperor could understand, but in history, the emperor only looked north to Bianjing and stared blankly. He Chian sighed and sighed:

"Xin Jiaxuan, a generation of talented people! Why can't we fight for the talented people in one go!"

Then I thought about it, it seemed that everything was not finalized, the current situation changed, and it was not time to sigh for Xin Jiaxuan.

"Look, I forgot that Xin Qiji will come to Lin'an after a few days. Then we will invite him to drink and ask Wenyuan to invite Lu You to have a good meal. How about it?"

"What is Xin Qiji coming to Lin'an for? Should he go to the Special Administrative Region, too?"

He Chian didn't expect Lao Peng to say this suddenly, so he smiled and said:

"It's a good idea to go to the Special Zone. He told me several times that he wanted to go to the Special Zone. I think, just let him go with His Majesty the Emperor. Imagine that if the negotiations were done well on the boat and the emperor was happy, it would be very likely that Xin Qiji would be the general and the prime minister. Do you think this is the reason!"
