The most arrogant in history

Chapter 873 Mr. Long.

Wei Dingshan of Jingzhou has been dead for many years.

Wei Caiqin's elder brother Wei Ning has been unemployed for many years. Now he is old and dying, and has no appeal.

Of course there are some relatives and clansmen of the Wei family, but not many.

Wei Caiqin smiled and said, "Your Majesty, I have been in charge of the Women's Division for many years, as well as the orphanage and nursing home. Over the years, I have gained some loyal subordinates. In addition, the two princes I gave birth to are married, and they also have relatives... I think I can take away 10,000 people."

"But the situation in the West Sea Continent is different. There are fewer people, and it's not safe."

Ye Kun was still worried: "If Song Kui is unwilling to accept your orders after you land, he will become your enemy. Even... harm you.

If he kills you and takes in the immigrants and supplies you bring, he will become even more powerful."

Wei Caiqin had obviously considered this question and said confidently: "So, I will bring a group of elite soldiers and carry the latest weapons. Even if Song Kui has rebellious intentions, I can capture him or kill him.

Song Kui's weapon was still powered by black gunpowder, but our current guns and cannons are powered by yellow gunpowder, which is much more powerful than his."

Ye Kun hesitated and said with a smile, "We can talk about this matter when we have a chance. Today is the New Year, so let's not talk about it."

Wei Caiqin understood and stopped the topic.

After lunch, Ye Kun went to the back garden again and played with the emperor’s grandson and granddaughters for a while.

Many sons, even more grandchildren.

Ye Kun couldn't even tell some of his grandchildren apart, couldn't call out their names, and didn't know which prince gave birth to them.

Fortunately, some princes have been immigrated overseas, otherwise there would be no room for them in the palace.

The Science and Technology City is still working overtime.

A large number of technicians and workers are building a wireless radio station in the imperial city.

A total of twelve sets of radio receiving equipment have been installed in crowded areas of the Zhuo County Imperial City and the inner and outer cities, and are being debugged intensively.

He Tiantian and Ye Kun suggested that Zhuo County needed at least one hundred radio receivers.

Ye Kun believed that Zhuo County's wired broadcasting had already covered the entire city, and there was currently no need for too much wireless broadcasting.

However, several major secondary capitals, as well as Tianzhu and Jiaozhi, should install more broadcast reception equipment.

In this way, it can be synchronized with the broadcast in Zhuo County in real time.

In other words, the voice of Zhuo County can be heard in several major secondary capitals and overseas.

On the evening of the first day of the new year, the installation of Zhuojun wireless broadcasting was completed.

Ye Kun gave a speech in person, wished everyone a happy New Year, gave New Year congratulations and a brief report on people's livelihood.

Because cable broadcasting in Zhuo County has been developed for more than ten years, people are accustomed to it and are not surprised or delighted by it.

However, the people of several secondary capitals were very surprised to hear Ye Kun's voice coming from the radio.

Early in the morning on the second day of the New Year, Ye Kun traveled lightly, with only a dozen guards, and quietly rode out of the city.

He wanted to go to the suburbs and the countryside to see how ordinary people celebrated the New Year.

Exiting the south gate and arriving in the far suburbs, Ye Kun looked through a telescope and found a village three miles ahead with smoke rising from the chimneys.

"Dahai, let's go to that village."

Ye Kun said to Wang Dahai, the commander of the Royal Guard Battalion.

Wang Dahai dressed up as a servant, nodded and smiled, "Your Majesty, that place is called Ping'an Village. There is a market there now, and it's quite lively."

Ye Kun nodded and rode away.

Wang Dahai protected him closely, while the other guards followed from a distance.

Ping'an Village is very clean and tidy, and has been well planned. The houses are arranged in rows in an orderly manner.

Moreover, they are all brick and tile houses with white lime on the exterior walls.

The pink walls and black tiles look very charming.

Inside the village, a three-foot-wide bluestone road is paved, passing in front of every household.

The aroma of wine and food wafts out from every household.

The naughty children gathered in groups of three or five, wearing new clothes and new shoes, setting off small firecrackers together, or jumping rope, playing shuttlecock, and playing glass balls.

"This village is nice. It looks like everyone has food to eat."

Ye Kun smiled at Wang Dahai.

Wang Dahai whispered, "Your Majesty, there is a family at the west end of the village, they are my friends. If you don't mind, let's go there and take a look."

"I came out just to see the situation among the people. How could I be disgusted? Lead the way!"

"Yes!"

Wang Dahai nodded, rode slowly in front, and said, "My friend's surname is Yuan. I met him when I was hunting in Taihang Mountain. His whole family immigrated to Zhuo County, and I helped them. At that time, I was also a soldier."

Ye Kun asked: "How long have they been immigrating here?"

"It's been ten years."

"Ten years ago, you were still a small soldier, but you were able to help your friend's family immigrate to the suburbs of Zhuo County. It seems that you are not an ordinary person. Tell me the truth, did you do anything illegal?"

"Your Majesty, this is really not possible."

Wang Dahai smiled and said, "Ten years ago, the population of Zhuo County was not too large. The land in the suburbs was not in short supply. At that time, the planning of Ping'an Village had just begun. My cousin was in charge of the resettlement of the new village.

I helped my friend apply for a homestead and let their family move in. ”

"I see."

Ye Kun nodded and asked again: "When your friend moved here, did he buy this house himself? How did he get the arable land?"

"At that time, a corrupt official was investigated and his entire family was exiled overseas. His manor and land were distributed to new immigrants. My friend came here and spent only seven taels of silver to buy some bricks and tiles, and built his own house according to the unified plan.

I saw that he didn't have much money, so I lent him a few taels of silver, and he only paid me back last year."

“Hahaha, that’s quite nice!”

Ye Kun laughed.

As they were talking, they arrived at the gate of Yuan's house at the west end of the village.

The Yuan family was bustling with activity, perhaps some relatives had come, and the smell of food filled the air.

Several old men have already sat down at the eight-immortals table and seem to be about to start drinking.

"Old Yuan, here I come!"

Wang Dahai got off his horse and shouted, "I'm here to wish you a happy new year and see your whole family."

"Oh, my brother Wang is here."

A big man, probably less than 40 years old, ran out of the room with a big smile on his face. He said, "Brother Wang, I haven't come to wish you a happy new year yet, why are you here first? You are a noble now, a popular person around the emperor."

"I am a soldier serving the emperor. How can I be considered a noble or famous person? Come, come, let me introduce you."

Wang Dahai took Lao Yuan and introduced Ye Kun to him: "This is my former teacher, Mr. Long."

This was Ye Kun's order, he didn't want to reveal his identity.

Old Yuan looked at Ye Kun and bowed, "Mr. Long, nice to meet you. Since you are Wang Dahai's teacher, you are my teacher and my elder. Mr. Long, please come in and take a seat."

"Brother Yuan, excuse me for disturbing you."

Ye Kun returned the greeting with a fist and said with a smile: "We went to the previous village to look for an old friend, but he was not at home. We passed by here and asked for a glass of water."

Wang Dahai said with a smile: "Mr. Long, my brother Yuan is the most hospitable. Let's not be so formal. Let's go inside and have a drink of water!"
