Lao Li was really excited, and nodded in agreement hastily. The man really has an obsession with this kind of mechanical creation that seems to come from genes.

Or maybe it is a desire for control and the pursuit of speed. After all, compared to riding a horse, driving is not only faster and more comfortable, but even if you are just getting started, you can point and hit.

Of course, even if there is a wall or a river in front of you, as long as you are willing, I will still let you in.

The training on the second day was indeed similar to what Zhang Nuo expected. After pulling Li Shimin and the three into the car, Zhang Nuo directly explained the various functions of the car in the school grounds, and explained the operation steps at the same time. Just let them practice on their own.

Anyway, in the school grounds, the place is wide open, it doesn't matter if you really bump into anything, anyway, for things like driving, as long as you figure out the basic operations, the rest is just practice makes perfect, but the effort is done.

Zhang Nuo just threw the three of them there and ignored them. How they arrange and practice is their own business. Anyway, he just bought the cheapest automatic car, filled it with gas and handed it over to them. up.

That's right, it's the kind of automatic Beverly that is common in driving schools. It's so cheap that it doesn't feel bad if it gets damaged. As for personal safety, as long as you don't die, you shouldn't have any major problems. After all, it's safe these days Airbags are standard equipment.

Li Shimin, who had practiced for a whole day, was extremely excited when he came back. Although Zhang Nuo understood the excitement of the person who touched the steering wheel for the first time, Lao Li was a little too excited.

As a result, when I got to the dining table and listened to Lao Li, Zhang Nuo almost spit out a mouthful of soup, and you actually drove directly to Chang'an City and the palace?

Didn't you just tell people yesterday that you were going to escape the summer heat in Lantian City and then Li Chengqian supervised the country, but you showed up again the next day?

Besides, whose driving school students dared to drive on the main road on the first day of practice, which means that Lao Li has a special status. If something happens to other people driving in Chang'an City, they will probably be arrested People hate to death.

Of course, it's more likely that the door can't get in!

Chapter 595 The journey of Zhang Nuo and others

The grievances in Zhang Nuo's mind are nothing to Li Shimin. Now this master can do things like sneak away with his wife in order to go out to play, which obviously shows that the style of painting has collapsed. I don't want to do what I used to do.

Well, anyway, the style of painting has collapsed, so it's nothing unusual to drive a car in Chang'an City and the palace.

But Zhang Nuo really admired this stupid and bold man, he really dared to go up, after all he fought on horseback.

But to be on the safe side, let Lao Li and the others go to the car to toss around for a few more days, this is not a good practice, Zhang Nuo is worried that he will not be able to fall asleep sitting on it.

Li Shimin approved of this decision very much, and he also felt that it is better not to go out if you are not proficient in operating this thing.

On the one hand, he felt that it was a bit too hard for Zhang Nuo to drive alone on the long road. On the other hand, he was fascinated by this thing now. The feeling of freely controlling the speed and direction was better than he used to ride. A more fascinating horse than any other.

In fact, this can be regarded as Li Shimin's wish. After all, he has been exposed to this thing a long time ago, but he has always been a passenger. Getting started, after all, what Zhang Nuo had considered before was that driving was risky anyway.

But this time it’s different. For the comfort of this long journey, Zhang Nuo resolutely put aside his worries about Li Shimin’s life, and felt very seriously that Li Shimin is a 30-year-old man. How can you not know how to drive anymore, let's learn it hard, and then leave it alone.

Li Shimin and others also lived up to Zhang Nuo's expectations. In just two or three days, they really managed to open this small Fukang in a decent way.

Seeing that everyone was almost ready, Zhang Nuo finally embarked on the journey to Pyongyang Road.

This time it was different from being so anxious when he came more than a month ago. When that guy came here before, he just wanted to go home, eat, take a shower and sleep.

But it's different now, there are still passengers in the car, and they are still very powerful passengers, so naturally they have to take their time.

However, Zhang Nuo finally enjoyed the feeling of being a boss for a long time, especially after Lao Li became addicted to cars, he refused to let others touch the steering wheel. Naturally, Zhang Nuo sat on the boss seat in the second row with his legs crossed. Salted fish slightly.

However, the happiest person in this car is probably not Li Shimin who is driving happily, but Empress Changsun who is sitting in the second row with Zhang Nuo.

As a woman who married Li Shimin at the age of 13, she has not been able to see the outside scenery for many years. Even before she became the princess of Qin and the queen, she actually did not go to many places.

Zhang Nuo felt that he was already on his way anyway, so he didn't rush to Pyongyang, just look around, let this woman, who can be called the best queen in history, look around.

Zhang Nuo's mind was clear at the first time with such a penetrating empress, but she didn't say anything, she smiled and nodded to Zhang Nuo as a thank you.

Li Shimin, on the other hand, is eager to spend more time on land right now. It just so happens that no one knows his identity at the moment, and he goes everywhere under the banner of Zhang Nuo. Tang also only had Zhang Nuo, His Highness King Qin.

Therefore, under Zhang Nuo's acquiescence, Li Shimin decisively turned on the fun mode. He didn't plan to go directly to the seaport on the other side of Dengzhou, but stopped and stopped all the way.

Zhang Nuo was also so happy. This is a more primitive and beautiful natural scenery than later generations. Many scenic spots in later generations are actually man-made. If you really want to see the natural scenery, you have to come at this time.

And Zhang Nuo didn't wrong himself, as long as there was a slightly larger town along the way, he would go directly to the best inn or simply show his identity and go to the government to find a place to live.

It is precisely because of this leisurely rush that when I came here, I traveled more than 1000 kilometers. This time, I actually ran nearly [-] kilometers in the past, and it took twelve days.

The extra hundreds of kilometers are basically all used for viewing the scenery or staying overnight!

However, the journey still has an end after all, and Li Shimin also had enough fun this time.

Of course, if Zhang Nuo hadn't spoken up, Li Shimin, who had let himself go a little bit this time, might not have come to Dengzhou honestly.

After arriving at the Weihai port area in Dengzhou, Li Shimin's mind, which was completely confused by the car, finally cleared up a little, and followed Zhang Nuo's footsteps to inspect the port area.

Speaking of which, starting from this port area, it is actually Zhang Nuo's territory. Zhang Nuo doesn't need to show his identity at all, and people know him everywhere he goes, and they just bow and salute.

On the other hand, Li Shimin was basically unknown to no one, and Zhang Nuo didn't introduce him, so he just took Lao Li around.

The construction progress of the port area is much faster than before. After all, there has already been a construction experience, and the manpower is mobilized from there. In addition, the original hydrological conditions and other aspects here are better than those on the opposite side. Pyongyang is stronger.

Therefore, when Zhang Nuo actually came to the port area to see it, in just over a month, one terminal was already in operation and several terminals were under construction.

Since this is Zhang Nuo's territory, Zhang Nuo made arrangements for it. Zhang Nuo didn't directly take people across the strait back to Pyongyang Road.

Instead, they directly recruited a new sea ship that had just been launched, and first took Lao Li and others around the sea for a while to let everyone get used to the wind and waves at sea.

Seeing that everyone, including Empress Changsun, seemed to be getting used to it, Zhang Nuo arranged for the boat to start heading towards Pyongyang Road.

This sea journey was much more comfortable than before. Except for Zhang Nuo and Cao Xing who were still a little bit psychologically disturbed, no one felt uncomfortable at all.

Zhang Nuo was even more comfortable. He even felt that the seasickness was too severe last time, so he was already immune to seasickness.

In less than three days, when Li Shimin and Empress Changsun were still intoxicated by the magnificent scenery of the sea, the ship had already landed in the Pyongyang Port area.

And then, it's so hard to die, when Zhang Nuo and others disembarked, they happened to run into the port admiral Li Miaoshu, who was so salty on weekdays and rarely came to the port once in a few days, actually went to the port for inspection work.

As I said before, Li Miaoshu is a child of Lao Li's family, so he naturally knows Lao Li. This scene is so beautiful!

Chapter 596 Li Miaoshu's Nightmare

Just as Zhang Nuo felt before, Li Miaoshu is actually a salted fish, which Li Miaoshu himself admits!

Of course, Li Shimin already knew the identity of this salted fish. If it wasn't for the severe shortage of people on hand, and at the same time, he didn't like Li Miaoshu's salty fish temperament, he would not have sent Li Miaoshu here.

But from Li Miaoshu's point of view, it's different, he doesn't need any chance to make it to the top, it's so comfortable to earn some money to live, master, where can't I easily earn that little salary?

Moreover, the previous experience of dealing with Zhang Nuo was too tragic for him, which caused Li Miaoshu's weak heart to be devastated almost instantly.

From Li Miaoshu's point of view, Lao Li is still the emperor no matter what, and his rank is too different from his own, and it is not convenient to meet normally, so even if His Majesty has long wanted to beat himself up, as long as he can't see him, he will be fine. Well.

But Zhang Nuo, the Prince of Qin, is different. In terms of power, this master is only worse than His Majesty. In terms of status, hehe, this master happens to be his immediate boss, and the most frightening thing is that he is now The seat is the place where this master pays special attention to.

So since being caught by Zhang Nuo last time and making him feel agitated, Li Miaoshu's temperament has improved a lot. After all, he was caught by his boss, so it's better to be honest.

At the same time, honestly, if you work here, you can stay away. He heard that His Highness went back to the customs before, but he was very happy for a long time.

The feeling that I can be in charge of the house when the boss is not at home is so cool!

However, the old saying is good, there are accidents, people have misfortunes, and found that Zhang Nuo is not in Pyongyang Road. Li Miaoshu, who had finally found time to salt fish for a few days, went out to the pier today for a rare visit.

This place is not the same as it was more than a month ago now. Sea ships coming and going are transporting the materials in the pass here, and the industrial products and semi-finished raw materials produced here are continuously sent to the pass.

Li Miaoshu calls himself a professional businessman, so he is naturally very interested in the scene of large-scale circulation of commodities, and he really likes to come and have a look when he is free on weekdays.

But he never expected that he really took time to come to the pier at random, but what did he see, the two men he feared most in the world actually walked off the boat together?

When Li Miaoshu wiped his eyes and found that he was right, he immediately fell to the ground with an "oh" sound, as if he had been pulled out of energy.

Just as Zhang Nuo got off the boat, he was stretching, but when he looked up, he saw Li Miaoshu, the salted fish admiral in the port area, standing on the pier. He was about to boast, but the fat black man fell down.

Zhang Nuo was speechless immediately, what is this shit doing, is it because of his poor physical fitness, he died after devoting himself to death, or because of his poor psychological quality, he fell to the ground in excitement when he saw Shangguan.

Li Shimin's face was also a little ugly at this time, Nima, this is a child sent by his family, and he was sent to Pyongyang Road for emergency treatment.

He didn't expect Li Miaoshu, a salted fish, to be angry and strive for improvement all at once, but the performance of lying on the ground when they met this time was really a bit stretched.

With such a ghostly look, he didn't know how to explain it to Zhang Nuo, it was too embarrassing, forget it, just pretend he didn't see it.

So Li Shimin walked past Li Miaoshu in an unobtrusive manner.

At the same time, it was none other than Li Miaoshu's official Shangguan, the person in charge of the entire Pyongyang Road, the first prince of the Tang Dynasty, and Zhang Nuo, king of Qin.

Zhang Nuo really felt ashamed, so he just pretended he didn't know him and just left. As long as everyone doesn't mention it, I won't be embarrassed, haha, the world is so simple.

Although Zhang Nuo didn't know why Li Shimin left without even asking a question, after all, in his eyes, Lao Li was not a particularly caring person, but the current situation is really embarrassing and embarrassing, Zhang Nuo I'm too lazy to think about it, so let's go quickly.

In fact, Zhang Nuo thought this way because he didn't even know that Li Miaoshu was a relative of the old Li's family. After all, this young master is the real king of salted fish. It is very rare to be able to know people and make good use of them. Want him to familiarize himself with the background of every official?

Therefore, from Zhang Nuo's point of view, it was an embarrassment for the officials under his command, and in Li Shimin's point of view, it was an embarrassment for his own children. Neither side wanted to bring up this topic, so they pretended not to see it and left.

At the same time, both parties are satisfied with the other's empathy.

Perhaps only Empress Changsun who was standing behind covering her mouth and laughing secretly could understand something.

Although Zhang Nuo and Li Shimin didn't talk to Li Miaoshu, his adjutant couldn't ignore it, so even if Zhang Nuo and his party left just like that, there wouldn't be any problems with Li Miaoshu.

After leaving the pier, Li Shimin and others started to turn their heads and look around.

To be honest, they really didn't expect such a city to appear in Pyongyang today!

Originally, in their impression, a barbaric place like Goryeo should be dilapidated. How could it be compared with the prosperity of Datang Pass?

Even though Zhang Nuo came here and started construction, there have been great changes from the report, but the words are not as shocking as the reality in front of him.

Li Shimin's feeling was the deepest at this time, because he clearly knew that this place used to be a small fishing village with hundreds of people, and all the things he saw at this time were built by Zhang Nuo's arrangements.

The place where they were standing at this time was the most densely populated wharf in the entire port area!

The mass production of industrial products in Pyongyang Road has given birth to a steady stream of sea-going ships being manufactured, and all this has led to the busy port area envisioned by Zhang Nuo to be more lively than he imagined.

Many fishermen who used to go fishing offshore on their own small fishing boats were pulled to serve as crew members or even captains on new-style seagoing boats because they had certain sailing experience.

And more and more merchants and families, after realizing the prosperity and importance of the port area, have tried everything possible to start building shops and warehouses here.

Especially the warehouses, which Zhang Nuo started building very early on. At that time, many people still couldn't figure out why His Royal Highness King Qin wanted to build so many warehouses, which were even bigger than the granaries in the pass.

But looking at it now, this warehouse is not good enough at all. The materials gathered from all over Pyongyang Road to Pyongyang, and then transported here by train will fill up the place.

Chapter 597 The latest development of Minato

Zhang Nuo's plan for the port area is very simple, but very practical.

After all, in his view, the construction of the port area must first reflect its functionality, and only on the basis of meeting the functional requirements can we pursue other things.

Therefore, when Zhang Nuo arranged the construction in the early stage, he focused more on public facilities and infrastructure, such as docks, warehouses, roads, railway stations and so on.

In Zhang Nuo's view, as long as the port area is in operation, those merchants who are full of money-making ideas will naturally build the shops and other facilities he wants to see. At that time, they only need to manage and plan. up.

But according to the current situation, Zhang Nuo still underestimated the acumen and courage of these businessmen.

What Zhang Nuo and the others saw was a commercial street, but it was different from the various restaurants and restaurants in Chang'an City and Pyongyang City. Also relatively empty.

Obviously, these shops are basically not for ordinary people, but for big customers. Zhang Nuo took a look at some cloth shops, but they started selling one hundred pieces;

There are iron ingot sellers, but most people probably don't even have the courage to go in and talk about it;

There are also those who sell wood, medicinal materials, and grain...

The entire commercial street does not seem to be crowded, but if you listen carefully, you will find that the number of transactions for the seemingly inconspicuous people in each shop is much larger than that of the retail shops in Chang'an City in a day much.

This is the rule that Zhang Nuo set at the beginning. This street is not so much a commercial street as it is more appropriate to call it a commercial street. After all, there are no small businesses here, but anyone who enters here to discuss business is from the local government. Only big merchants and families can do it.

The theory of capital said that businessmen don't mind selling a rope to hang themselves for three times the profit.

It is conceivable how excited these businessmen in Dengzhou and surrounding areas, and those in Chang'an after they heard the news, would be excited when they discovered this golden sea channel.

And when a person is excited, the enthusiasm and energy that explode is absolutely beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

Logically speaking, the business street in front of you can't reach this level of excitement. After all, no matter how good the new sea ships are, they still have to be built one by one, right?

Even though Zhang Nuo had mobilized as many boatmen and timber as possible, after all, this thing could not be completed in a day or two.

Even if the proficiency is improved, the materials are getting more and more complete, but after all, the ship is still a relatively complicated construction project.

No matter how much you start building like dumplings, you won't see so many sea ships in a short time.

So the group of capital inquired a lot of news, and after that, the businessmen who thoroughly understood the profit margin inside through one or two transactions, almost looked for all the ships that could allow them to cross the strait with red eyes.

Some of the conditions were not enough, and almost all the small fishing boats pulled out of the fishing village were brought in to transport goods.

After all, people who are not in this era can hardly imagine that the price difference of some commodities between the two places can be as large as ten times.

With this kind of profit margin, there is nothing to say. If a person dies, he will rise to the sky, and he will not die for thousands of years, just do it.

Then the commercial street on the port side was completely prosperous.

Zhang Nuo is very familiar with this place, one of the reasons is because this is the place he planned to use for commodity trading.

Another reason I am a little embarrassed to say is that many of the firms here actually have his shares.
