Chapter 160 Am I an official now?
Two months later, the envoy who set out from Tianjin finally arrived at Xiaoliuqiu.
Looking at the city in front of me, which is comparable to the future metropolis, the messenger was stunned for a moment.
Because he had never seen such a clean and neat ground, it was spotless,
Stamping your feet, as solid as a rock,
Can't make high-tech, can't Lu Yan still make cement?
With so many missionaries here, Lu Yan quickly became an infrastructure artifact.
Taichung is now different from the small Tucheng in the past.
In this city with a population of nearly 700,000, no one knows infrastructure better than him.
Under Lu Yan's constant "scam", the Seidks began to gradually accept friendship.
Nowadays, there are still many people buying things on the streets. In the past, Seidk people would go down the mountain and be with everyone.
"Empress, please get on the carriage!"
Inviting the other party, Lin Fu'an laughed,
"This is?"
Seeing a group of people waiting for the carriage to arrive on the roadside, the messenger asked in surprise.
"This is a bus carriage, you only need two cents to sit all the way to the head! You will pass by the city lord's mansion, the main square, the government affairs center, and the outer city garden along the way."
With a smile on his face, Lin Fu'an couldn't help but walk forward and handed over four cents.
Following Lin Fu'an on the carriage, the messenger's face showed a look of surprise.
Because this is something that is not even in the capital!
Also, this city is so novel. There are people in uniform patrolling the roadside, but holding sticks.
"What are these people?"
Inquiring curiously, the messenger spoke in a daze.
"Shepherd! Responsible for managing the streets and handling unnecessary disputes!"
Lin Fu'an smiled with a calm explanation.
Taichung, the city lord's mansion,
Although Lu Yan is known as the Far East giant shark, he is also a person who pays great attention to reputation. Generally speaking, he will never scold people.
But he really couldn't help it at this moment.
He picked up a short stick and chased a tall man to run the track: "Duckling, I asked you to go to India and ask you to go to India. Don't you know, hasn't you seized it yet?"
As he said that, Lu Yan hit Lu Meng directly.
"Oh, it hurts, brother"
He ran out and Lu Meng's face was full of grievances. He just snatched some gold. Is that what happened?
But just as Lu Meng ran out of the city lord's mansion, he was colliding with Lin Fu'an.
Seeing Lu Meng staggering, turning around and running away, Lin Fu'an said in a daze: "What's wrong with Brother Meng?"
"Bastard, where is Lu Meng? Fu'an!"
Carrying a stick, Lu Yan appeared in front of the door with a domineering face.
Seeing this scene, the messenger couldn't help but tremble in his heart. He quickly thought of something and said respectfully: "I've seen Lord Lu!"
"Mr. Lu?"
Looking at Lin Fu'an curiously, Lu Yan said in surprise: "Where did this guy come from?"
"Brother, this is an envoy from the court. I want to give you an official position!"
Looking at Lu Yan, Lin Fu'an quickly explained.
Looking at the messenger, Lu Yan raised his eyebrows and said, "Okay, let's go in first. It's so embarrassing to be at the door! It's all because of Lu Meng, who is so angry!"
The corners of his mouth twitched and the messenger said to himself: "This Lord Lu is really careless!"
Back at the lobby, Lu Yan sat upright with a teacup lid in his hand and said, "Tell me, what's the matter?"
"Brother, this is an envoy from the court. I want to be appointed as an official!"
Looking at Lu Yan, Lin Fu'an said it from beginning to end.
Looking at the envoy, Lu Yan waved, "Where is the imperial edict? Take it and take a look!"
Looking at Lu Yan hesitantly, the messenger was a little confused at this moment.
If he doesn't give it, he will definitely die. If he gives it like this, it will be difficult for him to go back and hand in the job.
But just when he was in a dilemma, Lu Yan said dissatisfiedly: "You are afraid of the past, are there anyone going back to complain to those cabinet masters?"
Hearing this sentence, the envoy quickly handed out the imperial edict and said, "Please see, Lord Lu!"
After opening the imperial edict, Lu Yan soon saw the important words above.
"Zhenhaibo, General Pinghai. What the hell is this?"
Frowning, Lu Yan couldn't help looking at Lin Fu'an,
The Count knew that the third rank, General Pinghai, was this a title in history?
Could it be that the group of cabinet masters used to appease him and specifically restricted them to exempt him?
"Second rank of General Pinghai! The elders hope that the general can guard the sea!"
Looking at Lu Yan, the messenger quickly explained.
Hearing this sentence, Lu Yan knocked on the chair and said, "In theory, I have no idea of ​​rejection! However, I don't want anyone to point fingers at me. Similarly, I can be at peace with the plunder of the vassal states, do you understand?"
When he heard Lu Yan say this, the messenger quickly said excitedly: "Are you willing, General?"
"What are you unwilling to do? It's just a waste of things anyway!"
After throwing the imperial edict to Lin Fu'an, Lu Yan stood up and said, "Arrang to the envoy well and retreat!"
"Okay, brother!"
With a smile, Lin Fu'an invited the envoy to leave.
In the evening, in the study room,
Lin Fu'an looked at Lu Yan and said, "Brother, we really accept it? Are you not bargaining?"
"No need, the people in the court didn't expect to call me at all, it was just for the sake of good looks!"
A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. How could Lu Yan not know what happened to the plunder of the vassal state?
He is forcing the court to make a choice. If he does not wish to do so, then I will continue to cause trouble.
"Brother, what are we going to do next?"
Looking at Lu Yan curiously, Lin Fu'an became excited because there seemed to be more things to do now.
"What are you doing? Of course, I'm waiting for the opportunity!"
Rapid development in three years,
Artillery factories and arsenals are now able to build cannons and flintlocks.
Ten cannons per month, one thousand flintlock rifles,
He has thousands of ships, sixty thousand soldiers, and eight thousand elite soldiers.
As long as the dressing is changed, what is invincible and the bones are broken by him?
Can't pirates fight after they land? Well, this is also a problem.
But he didn't say that he only had pirates!
What do warriors like tool-like people do? Of course, they are cavalry that resist the enemy!
Put on heavy armor, even if both sides change, Lu Yan can't stop laughing.
After all, over the years, the number of warriors under his command has reached tens of thousands.
Indonesia is guarded by them.
Anyone who is disobedient will be pulled out and buried on the spot.
Under the brutal massacre like blood stained with rivers, even if Indonesia still has resistance, it is only a sporadic point of fire.
Mr. Lu is a master of tool men. How could he let go of Indonesian and Japanese pirates who caused tragedy in history?
Early 1619, spring,
The Far East giant shark Lu Yan was awarded the imperial court and was crowned Zhenhaibo, the second-rank general Pinghai,
When everyone learned the news, they couldn't help but be in the same place,
Because except for the people on the coast, who knew Lu Yan's danger, the people in the inland looked confused?
Who is this guy? Why did he become an earl, or a second-rank general?
But when inquiring about Lu Yan's life, everyone was silent.
This is enough to threaten the coast of the Ming Dynasty and make it enthrone the ruthless man.
Unlike the shock of the inland people, many wealthy families along the coast cheered and excited.
Finally, they don't have to worry, they are touched at home one day and have their money emptied.
But Lu Yan just tells this group of people, hehe, it’s too early to be happy!
He, Mr. Lu, is a pirate!
Chapter completed!
