Becoming a God Starting from a Water Monkey

Chapter 282 New Ship Blueprints

In the stable.

The chief clerk didn't want to listen and left early.

Liang Qu dismissed his attendants and asked many questions in succession.

The eunuch answered them one by one to repay his kindness.

As a centralized dynasty, information records were all based on paper books, so the knowledge circulation in Dashun was very closed.

Even many unimportant information would still be in the hands of a few people or a specific group of people intentionally or unintentionally.

The eunuch was that specific group of people, and because they had served the dragon blood horse for generations, they knew more, allowing Liang Qu to further understand the whole world.

When the Dragon King was alive, the Qian Dynasty had an agreement with him.

Small monsters would not go ashore, and big monsters would not come ashore, which meant that the human race could not slaughter big monsters in the water without reason.

The two races could often exchange interests and conduct trade regularly. At that time, the Jianghuai Lake could be called a country within a country.

In the best years of relationship, the Dragon Palace forces helped to kill several big monsters that made trouble on the coast.

Each family had more or less a few businesses.

The best ones can even sell to the northern court and the countries in the South Seas.

For example, the Xu family in Huangzhou, where Liangqu's wife Xu came from, is most famous for its cloth business, including soft smoke gauze, double palace silk, square mesh gauze, cicada wing gauze...

There are so many types that he can't recognize them all, but every time he gets new clothes from his wife, he can always hear her talk about it in detail, such as this one is soft, that one is rough, how the clothes are made, and how much time and energy a weaver spends.

At that time, the "royal family" also had a business - exotic horses.

Its base camp was in the Governor of Nanzhili, and it was a real neighbor to Jianghuai Lake!

Naturally, the one who is close to the water gets the moon first, and the dragon blood horse was created under such a background.

It was originally a good thing.

The underwater environment is treacherous, and many rare treasures are guarded by big monsters. It is a great good to have a trustworthy third party "Dragon King" as a guarantor to exchange what they have.

However, as time went by, wars broke out in the Qian Dynasty, and the trade route that was once a year was completely cut off.

When everything was peaceful, the horse-breeding family became the final winner and established Dashun. When they wanted to continue the trade, they learned that the Dragon King was dead.

How and when did he die? Who is the current ruler of the Dragon Palace? All these are not something that a small horse official can know. He can't even be sure whether the dragon blood of the dragon blood horse comes from the dragon king himself.

"Lord Liang, you can't trust me completely. I'm just a horse-raising servant of no rank. My ancestors have been raising horses in Nanzhili for generations. I know more because of their glory.

But word of mouth always has errors and deviations. It is also possible that elders deliberately fabricate and exaggerate the facts to coax the younger generation. You can use it as a reference, but you can't take it as a basis."

Liang Qu nodded: "If it weren't for you, I really wouldn't know so many secrets and open my eyes."

"It's worth the horse-raising recipe you gave me to help Lord Liang."

The horseman bowed and confirmed that there was no problem. He took the sachet from Liang Qu as a token and rushed along the road to Yixing Town to ask for the Chishan recipe at Liang's house.

It feels a bit deceptive.

Liang Qu touched his chin, but it stands to reason that the treasure plant in the water should be more suitable for the dragon blood horse.

It's unlikely to be the best quality, so the probability of the top quality should be higher in the future?

It feels so good to have a head full of knowledge.

Liang Qu asked Chi Shan to stay in the stable and ran back to the government office.

The reason for coming back was not to ride a horse back and forth to show off to others.

He had just been promoted to Du Shui Lang, and he needed to understand his scope of authority and management area.

I don’t know if I can continue to work in Pingyang County. If I am asked to be transferred out, it will not be good.

In Ran Zhongshi’s study.

“Don’t worry, I am still in Pingyang County. I will definitely give priority to my own people. It is impossible to transfer you out.”

It’s great.

Liang Qu felt that today was a good day.

Ran Zhongshi flipped through the documents, took out a map, and circled Liang Qu’s position with a charcoal pencil.

After being promoted to Du Shui Lang, he naturally could not be limited to the small Yixing Town, but had to expand out.

From Yixing Town to the south, it connects to several other towns and townships in Pingyang County. There are three large towns and eight townships in total.

"This large area that has been decided for the time being is under your charge. You must ensure that the waterway is unobstructed and that fishermen can fish steadily. If there are waterways that need to be opened in the village, you must be responsible for coordinating the use of river-opening cattle.

Another town should have at least one river master and five river chiefs. Originally, Yixing Town was close and under the eyes of the government office. You did a good job as a river master, but no one was assigned to you. Now it's not possible. Should I transfer people for you, or should you choose them yourself?"

"Brother Ran, please transfer them for me. I don't know anyone. It's best to choose from the sergeants."

Liang Qu wanted to promote Li Libo and Chen Jiechang.

The two people know each other well and are from the same village, so they have a close relationship.

But their strength is not good enough.

Li Libo and Chen Jiechang are progressing too slowly. They work in the martial arts hall during the day and patrol as river officials at night. They work two jobs a day and get two salaries. Now they are just "about" to break through to the second level.

If they really reach the second level, Liang Qu will definitely be able to get one or two out of the ninth-rank river chief position.

Now we have to settle for the second best, and give priority to selecting from the sergeants, who have received professional training and are much better than the wild ones recruited by the local and other counties, and have good obedience.

"Okay, I'll transfer you, but not today, many people have been promoted, I need to re-coordinate, in a few days, if there is no transfer conflict, I will tell you the list of personnel."

"Thank you, Brother Ran, I'll treat you to ice yogurt I made some other day!"

"Haha, OK, if it doesn't taste good, I'll give you all those soldiers."

"Then you can only keep it for others."

After a few jokes, Liang Qu went downstairs and entered the filing room. He found the more familiar Li Shoufu, Li Zhubu, and asked for the small merit registration book, and turned to the column of ship drawings.

Li Zhubu glanced at it: "Lord Liang wants ship drawings?"

"Yes, what's the matter?" Liang Qu raised his eyes.

"You want the drawings for your own use, right?"

"That's right."

"Then you might as well exchange them for ships. When the ships are large-scale, the drawings are more expensive than the finished products!"

"No, I just want the drawings." Liang Qu shook his head.

Li Shoufu was stunned, thinking that Liang Qu might have some other ideas, and stopped talking.

"This one."

Liang Qu pointed to a pointed-bottom water boat, which was similar to the Fu ship in shape.

It was flat on the top like a balance, and the bottom was like a blade, which was valuable because it could break the waves.

The total length of the boat was 18 meters, which was really not small. It took five or six men to operate it, which matched the number of river otters at home, enough for him to use.

The disadvantage is that it is expensive, and it costs him a full 146 small merits.

Even if all the small merits he got from strangling the Ghost Mother Cult were added, it was not enough, and it overdrew a part of Liang Qu's merit inventory.

Knowledge is valuable.

Before leaving, Li Shoufu asked: "Sir Liang, you now have four big merits, do you want to exchange for something?"

"Let me think about it."

Liang Qu is not in a hurry, the big merit will not run away.

In mid-August, the ship model will be ready, not far from the second transaction with Toad.

First see what can be obtained from Toad, and then check for leaks and use big merits to maximize benefits.
