Chapter 144 Refugees, Beauties, and Talents
Mao Wenlong received a telegram from Shang Kexi.
It is said that they have recruited more than one million refugees.
About half of them are young and middle-aged people.
Shang Kexi and his men were leading a group of refugees.
Rushing towards Liaodong.
The other is the talent that Mao Wenlong asked him to find.
For example, Song Yingxing and Li Dingguo and others.
They have already set sail by water, and will be picked up by Li Jingxian and others at sea.
Send people to Liaodong directly by sea and land.
Now, the world on the sea is completely ruled by Mao Wenlong and his men.
Send the more important people out to sea.
Then it was sent to Liaodong by sea.
This avoids various accidents.
Safety is greatly guaranteed.
And there is no need to worry about anyone tripping you up.
Also worth mentioning.
After Geng Zhongming and his men recovered the Ryukyu Islands.
After gaining a foothold there, they sent warships to retake Hainan Island.
Hainan at this time was still a wild place.
There are no colonists and no aristocratic families.
Only a few indigenous people live on it.
So as soon as Mao Wenlong's army arrived.
Directly occupied the entire Hainan Island.
After recovering Ryukyu and occupying Hainan Island.
The Ming court arrived at the sea.
All of them fell into Mao Wenlong's control.
From the Bohai Sea in the north to the South China Sea in the south.
No one dared to challenge Mao Wenlong and his gang...
……
On a calm sea.
Not too far from the coastline.
Several ships were sailing northward.
Song Yingxing, dressed as a Confucian scholar, stood on the deck and looked at the sea.
On the surface it looks like you are enjoying the sea view.
In fact, Song Yingxing was thinking about all kinds of things in his mind.
Song Yingxing was a juren.
Although not as good as Jinshi.
But he is already a very good scholar.
So Song Yingxing lived a pretty good life.
Every day I read books, make friends, discuss the imperial examinations, and pay attention to current affairs.
Anyway, I have money and free time, and I don’t have to worry about food and clothing.
Life is very comfortable.
But suddenly one day.
A group of strangers came to the door.
He said he had a few things for him to taste.
Then the other party took out two steel guys.
Song Yingxing looked at it over and over again out of curiosity.
But I couldn't tell what it was.
Then the other party disassembled the two things into parts in front of him.
Reassemble the parts back to their original state.
Then after obtaining Song Yingxing's consent.
A few more shots were fired in his backyard, "bang, bang, bang".
Only then did Song Yingxing know.
Those two steel guys turned out to be very powerful firearms!
This immediately aroused Song Yingxing's interest.
Then the other party took out some drawings.
Song Yingxing looked at the drawings under the guidance of a stranger.
It felt like the world had opened a new door to him.
The colorful world behind the door.
Song Yingxing was deeply attracted to it.
So when the strangers introduced their identities and sincerely invited Song Yingxing to go to Liaodong.
Song Yingxing was very excited.
But considering that he still has parents and relatives.
Song Yingxing hesitated again.
The other party saw his hesitation.
The other party told Song Yingxing.
We can bring all his family members to Liaodong...
……
Mao Wenlong has already proclaimed himself king in Liaodong.
And he became king only after he destroyed the Jiannu.
Song Yingxing naturally knew it.
Therefore, Song Yingxing also had great respect for Mao Wenlong.
As for the Ming Dynasty court.
Song Yingxingjing felt that in the face of great ideals.
It is not impossible to change the regime.
They are all Han regimes anyway.
And in comparison, one is already on the decline, while the other is full of vigor and ambition.
Song Yingxing chose to go to Liaodong.
There is nothing strange about this...
Then Song Yingxing and the people who came to pick him up.
He tried every possible way to convince his family.
Then Song Yingxing and his friends left their hometown.
Embarked on the journey to Liaodong...
After several twists and turns.
Song Yingxing and his companions arrived at a small island.
I found that some people had already gathered there.
Several of them caught Song Yingxing's attention.
First, there are a few children.
The two girls were named Liu Rushi and Chen Yuanyuan, and the other boy was named Li Dingguo.
Song Yingxing discovered that these little guys all had great potential.
At first he thought they were little guys.
He was brought here with his parents and family.
After we had more contact with each other.
Only then did Song Yingxing realize that this was not the case.
The people sent by Mao Wenlong took a fancy to these children.
And persuaded their families to go to Liaodong together.
This made Song Yingxing even more curious.
Why did Mao Wenlong send people from thousands of miles away to pick up these children?
The two little girls are easy to deal with.
Because you can tell at first glance that they are beautiful girls, and they will definitely be great beauties when they grow up.
I want to put the beauty into my bowl in advance.
There's nothing to be surprised about.
The question is, what about the boy named Li Dingguo?
What is going on here?
There were also several blacksmiths who were originally refugees.
They also gathered on the island with their families.
No matter how skilled the blacksmiths are, it's not worth Mao Wenlong's effort, right?
The island was home to a migrant blacksmith, a natural beauty, and a family of scholars.
It's a really strange combination.
Later, Song Yingxing couldn't help but feel curious.
I asked Liu Aita, who was responsible for their safety.
Want to figure out what's going on?
Liu Aita told him: “Mr. Song, Li Dingguo, and the two girls, you are all on the list provided by our prince.
We are just looking for people according to the list. According to our prince, you guys are all talented and we must find a way to invite you to Liaodong.
As for the blacksmiths named Li Laosan and Wang Laosi, the prince did not provide a specific list, but only provided a screening criterion.
We will select these people with superb skills according to the standards and requirements provided by the prince, and invite them to Liaodong.
As for what purpose our prince would like to find these people? That is beyond our ability to guess!"
Song Yingxing was stunned after hearing this.
He couldn't figure it out no matter how hard he tried.
How did Mao Wenlong know his name and various situations?
Song Yingxing: "I wonder what your prince wants me to do by calling me over?"
Liu Aita: “You have also seen our two types of pistols and witnessed their power. It can be seen that Mr. Song is very interested in them.
Our prince said that you are born with talent in this field. This time, we invite you to Liaodong because we want Mr. Song to take charge of the production of guns. "
Song Yingxing: "Did the prince really say that?"
Liu Aita: "Yes, that's what our prince said."
I didn't expect Mao Wenlong to value him so much.
This made Song Yingxing very excited.
It is said that a gentleman will die for his friend.
Maybe this is the case.
Song Yingxing quickly expressed his attitude: "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. I will definitely do my best..."
……
Recalling the conversation that day.
Song Mingxing was looking forward to his trip to Liaodong even more.
And Mao Wenlong after receiving the news.
I am also looking forward to Song Yingxing and his team arriving in Liaodong.
It’s just a long road.
During the late Ming Dynasty when transportation was extremely inconvenient.
It takes a lot of time to go from Jiangnan to Liaodong!
Song Yingxing and his men have not yet arrived in Liaodong.
Mao Wenlong received an urgent telegram.
After receiving the telegram, Mao Wenlong received bad news...
