Chapter 1275
Zhang Qianzhi's luggage is simple, there is only a camphor wood box, and he didn't even bring a follower, but Yu Xiaobao has a lot of entourages, so he doesn't need to do it himself. sent to the cabin on the ship.There are only two single cabins for passengers on this high-end passenger ship, and Yu Xiaobao and Zhang Qianzhi happen to live in one.After everyone boarded the ship, Yu Xiaobao instructed the captain to set sail, and the sailors obeyed the order to unmoor and raise the sails, and slowly left the pier.
Standing on the side of the ship, Liu Shang looked at the land that was gradually moving away in his vision, but he felt mixed feelings.The joy is that this time, he managed to sneak into the side of senior Haihan officials without any effort, and he is expected to get access to some high-level official information during this period of time. There is some high value intelligence.But at the same time, he can't help but worry about the prospect of this trip. He has found that with his current professional ability, it may be difficult to meet Xiaobao's requirements for publicity work. It is not certain whether he can be assigned tasks during this trip. .If Yu Xiaobao is not satisfied with his own performance, it may be trivial to be kicked off the ship halfway. Maybe his attitude and evaluation will affect his appointment by the Propaganda Department. If it is abolished, it will really be worth the loss.
In addition, the duration of this trip is uncertain, but according to other people in the same company, it is estimated that it will not be completed in ten days and a half months.Liu Shang received this errand temporarily, and there was no time to pass on the information to the outside. If Liao Yuan, who was waiting for the news in Sanya, did not see him when the time limit expired, and he couldn't find a suitable channel to inquire about the news, he would have to go crazy. Will Liao Yuan? Therefore, he is not sure about what happened in Sanya with suspicion.
Liu Shang was not worried about the personal safety of Liao Yuan and his gang, but he was afraid that if they showed their flaws because of this, they would definitely drag him into the water. Lurkers come in.For the current plan, Liu Shang can only hope that Liao Yuan can calm down and stop making troubles, and he will wait until he comes back this time.
Not long after the ship sailed out to sea, someone came to tell Liu Shang to go to Yu Xiaobao's cabin.Liu Shang didn't dare to be negligent, and hurriedly followed the visitor off the deck to meet Yu Xiaobao.
Liu Shangjin went into the cabin and saw that Yu Xiaobao and Zhang Qianzhi were both there, he couldn't help but feel nervous again, secretly guessing, could it be that this surnamed Zhang saw his flaws in just a few moments after boarding the boat?But I obviously haven't even said a word to him, could it be because the attire is too eye-catching?
But after Yu Xiaobao spoke, Liu Shang soon realized that he was worrying too much.Yu Xiaobao just exchanged a few simple greetings with him and then got to the point, took a stack of materials from the coffee table next to him and handed them to him: "These are the lecture notes that you need to understand and master, it's best to memorize them as soon as possible. As for emotions, You should be more professional than me in terms of tone, rhythm, and other details, so I won’t make mistakes. You should digest it carefully, and I will send you to give a speech in a day or two at the earliest.”
Liu Shang didn't dare to keep talking, and bowed to take this document.He glanced at the cover and saw that it read "Overview of Maritime Trade in the Guangdong and Guangxi Regions in Seven Years of Chongzhen", and his heartbeat accelerated a lot.This Haihan actually specially compiled the statistics of the maritime trade situation in the Guangdong and Guangxi regions last year. This shows his ambition, and he is planning to spread this information everywhere. Could it be that he intends to deliberately create rumors and deceive them under the rule? ordinary people?
After much deliberation, Liu Shangsi still didn't understand what he meant, so he had to ask cautiously: "I would like to ask, why is this Ming's outline of maritime trade preached to the people of Haihan Kingdom? I am stupid, please don't blame Director Yu! "
Yu Xiaobao didn't take it seriously, and patiently explained to him: "You just came to Haihan not long ago, so it's not surprising that you don't understand the significance of this. Trade merchants, as well as operators of related industries, such as warehousing, retail, human resources, and finance, may be able to get some useful information from them. Which places in Guangdong and Guangxi have special production, what kind of demand, and where are they built? Whether it is a trading terminal or a professional market, there will be relevant content in this document to point them in the direction and avoid business risks.”
Liu Shang sighed: "Haihan is famous for its maritime trade, and it really has something extraordinary! With such hard work and experience, it's no wonder that it can occupy a place in the South China Sea!"
What he said was not entirely flattering Yu Xiaobao, but also somewhat sincerely sighed.It is well known that Haihan is good at sea trade, and many people think that Haihan's wealth comes from their ever-expanding ocean trade every year.The Ming Dynasty banned the sea for many years. Although it has been gradually loosened in recent years, and many places no longer prohibit private sea trade, the professionalism and scale of business operations are far inferior to Haihan, let alone official guidance and support.As far as Liu Shang knows, there is no government anywhere along the coast of Daming that will produce such highly professional reference materials for maritime merchants.
Yu Xiaobao said: "my country's territory is surrounded by the sea, so ocean trade with the outside world is extremely important. Chiefs often say that the exchange of materials and population can bring greater development to Haihan. This must not only be carried out in Haihan. In terms of trade, it should also be reflected in all aspects of foreign relations. You may not know much about our country’s maritime trade policy. When you have time on the way, you can come to me to get some materials and go back to study.”
Liu Shang quickly thanked him. Seeing that Yu Xiaobao had no other orders, and was about to leave, Zhang Qianzhi, who had been silent all this time, called out to himself: "Wait a minute, this gentleman just came from Daming? Dare I ask?" Where is Xianxiang?"
Liu Shangying said: "The villain is from Zhaoqing Prefecture."
"I heard that you used to be a storyteller? You are in Zhaoqing, so you should have heard of Yang Dasang, right?" Zhang Qianzhi continued to ask seemingly casually, but her eyes were fixed on Liu Shang's face, as if to observe the changes in his expression .
Liu Shang was very calm, nodded and said: "He is the No. He can be regarded as the uncle of the villain."
"Oh, you should also know Yang Yu, the son of Yang Dasang, right? I heard that he also inherited his father's business, and he has been very popular in Zhaoqing Mansion for the past two years." Zhang Qianzhi asked again.
Liu Shang replied without changing his face: "I'm afraid the chief may have misremembered. Uncle Yang's only son died of illness a few years ago, and his name is not Yang Yu."
"Really? It may be that I haven't been to Zhaoqing for several years, and my memory is a little fuzzy." Zhang Qianzhi nodded and said, "I'm just asking casually, you go to rest!"
Liu Shang bid farewell to the two of them again, and then exited the cabin.After closing the door, Liu Shangcai raised his hand and wiped the cold sweat from his head with his sleeve. He could feel that the other party's question just now was trying to test him. The problem will be revealed.
After Liu Shang went out, Yu Xiaobao asked, "Which song are you singing?"
He had known Zhang Qianzhi for many years, and he knew that the other party was not the kind of person who would chat casually with strangers, so this conversation must have a certain purpose.
Zhang Qianzhi replied carelessly: "It's nothing, I have an occupational disease, since I'm a newcomer, I'll help you find out the details."
Yu Xiaobao said: "Then does this person have a problem?"
"I haven't found it yet." Zhang Qianzhi explained: "I know a little about the situation in Guangdong's prefectures, so I asked him where his hometown is, and I asked him where he said, but there were no loopholes in his answer."
"So what did you say later that Yang Dasang's son was deliberately giving wrong information?" Yu Xiaobao had already come to his senses after hearing his explanation. Zhang Qianzhi has always been calm, so how could he casually say information that is vague in memory? .
Sure enough, Zhang Qianzhi nodded in agreement with Yu Xiaobao's guess: "If he is talking nonsense according to my words, or if he doesn't know much about it, then I may doubt the authenticity of his claim that he has a teacher relationship with Yang Dasang."
Yu Xiaobao sighed: "You are really insidious!"
"How can this be called insidious? This is the vigilance that our intelligence and security front must maintain at all times. Didn't Minister He teach you when you were stationed in Guangzhou?" Being able to speak well, he immediately turned back without giving in.However, he probably didn't expect that Liu Shang, who was well-prepared, would not be troubled by these few questions, and he would just let him get away with it.
However, Liu Shang knew very well that he escaped by luck this time, and now he didn't know whether Zhang Qianzhi had already set his sights on him or did it temporarily, and he was still very uneasy.But now that they are at sea, there is no place to hide, and they may meet each other again at any time.Liu Shangke wasn't sure if he would be able to do it the next time he faced Zhang Qianzhi's tricky question.Zhang Qianzhi holds a high position in the Haihan Security Department at a young age, and it seems that he is not just relying on his resume to get the position, but is really capable.
Liu Shang didn't dare to think too much about this question at the moment. The more he thought about it, the more flustered he would be, which would affect his state instead.He can also be regarded as an intelligence officer who has received professional anti-stress training. Although it is inevitable that he will be in a trance when encountering such a thing, his square inch has not been completely messed up.He returned to his cabin and sat quietly for a while. After clearing his mind, his emotions gradually calmed down.
The situation is already very clear, if Zhang Qianzhi sees him through now, there is basically no possibility of escape, and he is not a martial arts master with extraordinary skills, so naturally he can't beat all these people on board by himself.In fact, he estimated that Zhang Qianzhi alone would be enough to surrender himself, not to mention there were other armed guards on board.Of course he could theoretically steal a musket, but that wouldn't save him from the place either.
So the best way to deal with it now is to pretend that nothing happened, and don't give Zhang Qianzhi the slightest chance to become suspicious.To do this, Liu Shang thinks that it is best for him to complete the tasks ordered by Yu Xiaobao first, so that perhaps he will receive less attention accordingly.
After figuring out the stakes, Liu Shang turned his attention to the information he had just brought back.This kind of information that will be announced to the public in the future is obviously not a confidential document for Haihan, but Liu Shang is also very clear about the statistical data and related analysis in it, and the local governments in Guangdong and Guangxi may not have it. After all, no magistrate would be willing to spend money on this kind of laborious and laborious investigation without any direct benefits. If you have this spare time, it is better to do something practical, at least you can write it in the official document and report to the higher authorities.
Liu Shang calmed down, opened the document, and began to look up the contents.This material is not so much a promotional material as it is more like an investigation report. Liu Shang opened it and flipped through a few pages at random, and couldn't help being surprised.Although he expected that Haihan's statistical data would be more detailed, he really didn't expect it to be so detailed.
This information lists all the large ports along the coast of Guangdong, Guangxi and the Pearl River. The water depth, supporting facilities, land transportation conditions, cargo handling capacity, and public security conditions of the ports are all described in detail. There are even detailed wage standards for dock workers. Number of.Among them, the places where Haihan offices have been established are all specially marked in red handwriting, accounting for as much as sixty-seven out of ten on the list.
The text description in the back note made Liu Shang deeply speechless: "...where there is an office of our country, it can be regarded as a place where our country has influence, and enjoys the treatment of tax reduction and exemption for city ships. In case of trouble, just It is convenient to report to the official and state your nationality in a timely manner. If the local government is unable to do so, you can ask for help from the office, regardless of money settlement, armed escort, or agency shipping, you only need to state your nationality, and you can get help immediately.”
That is to say, the influence of the port where Haihan set up an office has overwhelmed the local government to a certain extent, and the nationality of this Haihan country is simply easier to use than a passport. With such a backing, maritime merchants, Naturally, it will be much easier when engaging in cross-border trade.However, Haihan has so many influential ports in Guangdong and Guangxi. The officials in these places are afraid that they will benefit from them, so they will give Haihan so much convenience.
Does the Guangdong Ship Lifting Department know about this situation?Does Cheng Xuan know about it?Does the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi know about it?Liu Shang didn't dare to think about how involved he was, as this was far beyond his scope of authority.If the officials above don't know about this, they are muddled officials of Yizheng and should be killed.If the officials above know but turn a blind eye, they are colluding with the Haihan people and conspiring to treason, and they should be killed!
