Chapter 175 Shimadzu Mitsuhisa's invitation
After several days of recovery, Chu Yun completely recovered. During this period, officials from all over the country also returned to their respective positions and re-entered their busy construction work.
The Libixi Laboratory and Rosenter Laboratory of the Academy of Sciences have successively installed test equipment for fertilizer production and produced the first batch of phosphorus fertilizers and potassium fertilizers. Phosphorus fertilizer production is relatively easy, and raw materials can be easily found in southern Liaoning. However, the raw materials for potassium fertilizers are mainly obtained through overseas trade. The cloth bags that package phosphorus fertilizers and potassium fertilizers contain three big words "Golden Carat" written in a pen, and the varieties, quality and specifications of fertilizers are written in detail below.
Of course, the first batch of fertilizers is just a drop in the bucket and is far from meeting the agricultural production needs of southern Liaoning and Liaodong. However, being able to build a simple production line is a historic breakthrough.
At the same time, Stephenson, who had been busy for more than half a year, finally proposed the completion schedule of the first small section of railway "Iron Mountain - Gaizhou", which was temporarily set at Guyu. Stephenson proposed to hold the completion ceremony of "Guyu" among the twenty-four solar terms, which made Chu Yun feel a little amused. It seems that Stephenson, as a Westerner, has also begun to be slightly baptized by the traditional culture of the Ming Dynasty. This is to be a good intention.
During the last lunar calendar, not only Chu Yun and the senior leaders of the Fu Liao army appeared in Jinzhou City, but also Goryeo students, Japanese students, and merchants on the journey gathered in Jinzhou City to experience the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty. The prosperity of Jinzhou City dazzled them.
Shimazu Kokuha and his companions also celebrated the festival in Jinzhou City. They also visited Chu Yun after the festival. As a partner of the Restoration Army in Japan, the Satsuma Shimazu family traded with southern Liaoning, and the largest income from the Shimazu family to collect rent from tenants. Moreover, the amount of foreign trade income accounts for their income higher and higher. As the young master of the Shimazu family, Shimazu Kokuha certainly needs to visit Chu Yun and give him a sense of existence.
This time, Shimazu Kokuha brought people to Jinzhou City, and there was another consideration, that was, to find a way to obtain advanced Western technology, in other words, to pursue Ella from the Intelligence Department. At this time, he thought Ella was just an officer of the navy fleet. He thought that she could take Ella, which would not only obtain advanced technology and support from the Restoration of the Liao Navy, why not do it?
"Their naval commander Nelson and other naval officers have returned to Dalian Port, why is this Ella still staying in Jinzhou City?" Shimazu Kokusa, who had been staying in Jinzhou City for several days, and everyone stayed at the Jinzhou City inn. During festivals, the Jinzhou City Inn, which is worth every inch of land, is not cheap. In order to show their identity, they have dozens of people living in the upper room at the same time. The daily expenses make Shimazu Kokusa feel pain.
"I heard that the day begins as the Shangyuan Festival of the Han people, which is connected to the Spring Festival for ten days. The city is in the daytime and the night lights are lit to guess riddles, which is spectacular. Young Master, think about it, Ella is a woman from the West, and she must be very curious about the lanterns and riddles of the Ming Dynasty, and maybe she stays here to experience the culture of the Ming Dynasty." A Japanese warrior said.
"What you said makes sense. Right!" Shimazu Kokusa suddenly had a flash of inspiration, "You said that the Shangyuan Festival is an important festival for the Han people, and it is more interesting than the Shangdan Festival. Can I take this opportunity to invite Ella to learn the Han people's lanterns and guess riddles, and use my talents to conquer her?"
"Swish, with the young master's talent, as long as she shows her a little, she will definitely throw herself into her arms!"
"Our Japanese warriors are different from those weak Han people. Westerners admire strong people like us even more!"
"The young master can take this opportunity to take her down and cook the raw rice. Then we can get the support of Westerners!"
Other Japanese warriors nodded one after another.
Shimazu Konoha was inspired by everyone and felt excited, as if Ella would be sent to her arms the next moment and obeyed him.
"Let's go, let's go to her residence!" Shimazu Kokusa felt that Ella had no reason to refuse him, so she was not as moved as she could, so she immediately got up and went to Ella's place.
The officials and senior officials who came to Jinzhou City to visit Chu Yun were placed in houses near Chu Yun's mansion, so it was not difficult to find out about Ella's residence. Shimazu Kokusa openly asked dozens of subordinates to inquire about Ella's whereabouts, which was strange if they could not find out. The people from the Intelligence Department found that someone was inquiring about their superiors and secretly paid attention to these dozens of Japanese warriors, for fear that they would do something. These Japanese warriors unknowingly helped the Jurchen assassins lurking in Jinzhou City to attract the attention of the Intelligence Department...
As soon as they walked out of the inn, Japanese warriors collided with a group of people.
"Axi, I've been in trouble for several lifetimes. I actually met you guys again!" The nobles of the Goryeo Kingdom were so angry that they smoked their orifices.
Last time they were drugged by Japanese warriors in the meal, and they vomited and had diarrhea for several days before they gradually recovered. There was also a joke in the Academy of Sciences. How can people not be angry?
"Baga, why are you, the Goryeo people, still in dispersed?" Shimazu Konoha unexpectedly met this group of students from Goryeo in Jinzhou City, which was also very unlucky.
Although the Japanese prescription drugged the Goryeo last time, the Goryeo also drugged them! What's the point?
"We from Goryeo come here to celebrate the Dan Festival and the Lantern Festival, but you are still in a state of dissipation. Hey, haven't you always claimed to be very noble in Japan and do not recognize the Central Plains culture? How can you be interested in coming here to experience the Ming Dynasty festival?" Goryeo nobles sneered.
"Bah, you Goryeo copied everything from the Ming Dynasty, were complacent and claimed to be your own culture. It's really shameless!" Shimazu Kokusa sneered.
"How come you are tainting your innocence out of thin air? The Ming Dynasty is the sect leader. Can our Goryeo learn Ming culture be considered plagiarism? "The Goryeo nobles blushed when they were said by Shimazu Kokuha.
"Jiang Yun, it is a sacred festival for the Han people, so we cannot cause trouble." The prince Li Yi stopped the dispute between the Goryeo nobles and Shimazu Kokuha, and turned to Shimazu Kokuha, "The Han people have a saying, "A gentleman takes revenge, it's not too late for ten years. We will ask you for the old accounts from thirty years ago. Let's go."
"Little baby should have more experience. We could conquer your country thirty years ago, but we would still be able to do it thirty years later!" Shimazu Kokusa also made a harsh word, "Let's leave too!"
Both sides crossed and almost glared at each other.
"If this was not the territory of the Ming Dynasty, I would definitely hang them up and beat them." An Japanese warrior still murmured with dissatisfaction afterwards.
"They want to endure and surpass our Japan, but we are not the same. One day, our Satsuma vassal will become the largest vassal in Japan, establish a powerful empire like the Ming Dynasty, and then crush them Goryeo again!" Shimazu Konoha said in his contemplation.
He was already fantasizing about waiting for the Lantern Festival to guide Ella, marry Western white and rich beauty, gain advanced technology, and reach the peak of his life...
