I opened a tavern in Datang/Datang: My peerless talent was exposed

But Tubo was gone, and Lu Dongzan's anger was gone. What he was most ashamed of was that, not only did he not bring Tubo to a new peak, but he also completely wiped Tubo in his hands.

No matter how well Tubo develops in the future, for Lu Dongzan, Tubo will die.

That's right, after the subjugation of the country, Lu Dongzan collapsed. He is a proud and rational person.

He knew that after joining the Tang Dynasty, Tubo would become better, the people there would have enough to eat, even if there was a snow disaster, they would not starve to death, and life would get better day by day.

But the pride in his heart made him unable to bear the fact that Tubo disappeared.Therefore, he chose to end his life.

Zhang Nuo had read the suicide note, but after reading it, he put it down and left without saying anything.

Zhang Nuo didn't know what to say to this kind of people. On the one hand, he admired their spiritual pursuit and ideals, but on the other hand, he felt that they were a little too extreme.

If you think of a way to secretly organize the rebellion of man-made Lao Li, it can be considered as a contribution to Tubo. Even if you fail in the end, you will be considered a martyr for your own ideals. You killed yourself without hesitation. What rules.

Forget it, don't think about it, it has nothing to do with me, Zhang Nuo doesn't have that kind of spiritual pursuit, let alone that kind of extreme, if it was him, if he lived in a different place, he might either find a way to pull the Tubo gang to rebel, or Will pack up and prepare to live a life of a rich man in seclusion.

But looking at the carnival of these people in front of him, Zhang Nuo always felt unreal, how did he get here these few months?How could it be New Years without paying attention?

It has to be said that the warm and watery days are the most debilitating, people don't feel the passage of time at all, that's why Zhang Nuo has this feeling that time has passed without even thinking about it.

But, Zhang Nuo leaned on the back of the chair relaxedly, half-closed his eyes and looked at all this, but he felt that it was really good to live like this.

In the past few months, it was the first time for him to relax completely and thoroughly enjoy the corrupt life of the top dignitaries of the Tang Dynasty.

Get up early every day to exercise your martial arts body, and practice your miraculous kung fu, and then you don't make breakfast, just go out to buy, and bring a copy to Hongyu by the way.

After both of them finished their breakfast, Hongyu had to go to work at the kindergarten, after all, she was still the director of the kindergarten!

And Zhang Nuo would go for a walk around the city lord's mansion to look at some official documents approved by Li Chengqian yesterday. Today, he basically leaves everything to Li Chengqian. He is only responsible for checking, and occasionally picks out mistakes. What's wrong.

Basically, after staying in the city lord's mansion for half a day, his task for today will be completed, and then he will go for a walk in the factory, in the school grounds, in the city...

Lunch is usually settled in his own shop, and then continue to stroll in the afternoon or go home to read and study, and occasionally go to Chang'an City to see Lao Li. Every time he sees him struggling to deal with state affairs, Zhang Nuo will feel sincerely happy.

At night, Mr. Li Yuan usually plays mahjong with a few nobles, and now mahjong has almost become the quintessence of the country.

Rich people buy a pair of white jade, and ordinary people can also buy a pair of wooden plaques. After all, there are guests at home, so you can't just sit there and chat.

When it hits [-] or [-] o'clock at night, basically the day is over. After taking a shower and sleeping with my wife in my arms, it is considered a complete day.

Of course, it’s not like this every day. He has to go to Koryo every ten days and a half months. Although it’s called Pyongyang Road now, it’s still left to him by Li Shimin, so he has to take care of it. No, anyway, with the airship, traveling is quite easy.

Chapter 726 The Birth of the Navy

Zhang Nuo leaned on his seat, half drunk and half awake, no one dared to provoke him, not because he could drink a lot, but because he was afraid that he would go crazy.

In fact, Zhang Nuo's wine is pretty good. He doesn't make noise when he's drunk, but just wants to sleep. It stands to reason that this is already the best kind of wine, at least compared to the bunch of drunken fools in front of him. It's too much to say.

Everyone thought so before, but what they never expected was that they ignored Zhang Nuo's frighteningly high force value, and seriously underestimated Zhang Nuo's desire to sleep when he was drunk.

Therefore, after Zhang Nuo drank too much that time, there were two results. One was that the military general did not go out for more than half a month, and he honestly stayed at home to "cultivate his body and mind." , absolutely no one dares to continue to persuade him to drink.

According to the gossip from a general of the Heitantou Imperial Army who claimed to have a super high force value, His Royal Highness King Qin had a very violent temper after being woken up after drinking too much, and at the same time, his subordinates were very indifferent.In other words, there is no light but all heavy.

This point, Li Shimin can testify, because he was kicked, but fortunately, he was kicked on the buttocks, and he just groaned for a while. If he was kicked elsewhere, he would probably have to lie down on the spot.

Therefore, Zhang Nuo proudly beat up everyone present, including the emperor, with a proud record after getting drunk, and became the most nobody dared to drink alcohol in the Tang Xungui Winery. A drunk group of people can't mess it up. Isn't this causing trouble for yourself?

That is to say, from then on, all the families knew that if His Royal Highness King Qin drank too much, he would just put him there to sleep, at most, he would cover him with a blanket to prevent him from catching a cold, even if he took good care of him, People don't mind, and everyone doesn't have to be beaten.

It is also such a tough record that even beat the emperor, so that Zhang Nuo can easily enjoy this half-drunk and half-awake state with half-closed eyes.

He actually drank a little too much on purpose today. Normally, he would at most entertain others, and would not open his mouth to drink. After all, he is not very addicted to alcohol.

And the reason why he is happy today is because he received good news today. The first batch of trainees from the Naval Academy, who has trained for nearly a year, are preparing to board the ship.

This is not an ordinary good thing. You must know that those students have received serious naval training. Although it is a simplified version, the learning task is really not easy.

Not to mention anything else, nautical chart surveying and navigation technology alone can suffocate a large group of people, and there are also a lot of things such as sea observation, fleet command, artillery maintenance, and so on.

You know, although the boat is still powered by sails at the moment, the knowledge they have learned is all serious sailing knowledge, and future generations need to go to university to learn it.

Moreover, the most troublesome thing is that everyone in it has to learn by themselves.

That's right, it's self-study. Where can Zhang Nuo find a bunch of people who understand these technologies to teach them?

It would be great to be able to provide a variety of textbooks and a lot of internship opportunities. At least in terms of knowledge, Zhang Nuo can guarantee that what he presents is correct, as long as he learns it, he doesn’t have to risk his life to fill in and explore.

As for what new things you think of from it, hehe, I didn’t discuss it with you, you are here to serve as a navy, and you are going to become a general. Those who do research are the work of the research institute.

Although there is no marine research institute yet, it is already being cultivated slowly. After all, not everyone is suitable to be a captain or a fleet commander, and Zhang Nuo also needs a group of outstanding graduates to become teachers.

Therefore, Zhang Nuo's excitement can be imagined when he received a telegram today saying that the first batch of cadets at the Naval Academy in Korea had completed their exams and could graduate.

This is not some kind of machinery or new technology newly developed under his guidance. No matter how powerful that thing is, in fact, as long as the researchers are not stupid, it will slowly and naturally come out.

But the school is different from the graduates, especially this batch, they are not only the first batch of navies trained by Datang, shouldering the mission of Datang from land to sea, but they will also be a batch of seeds, Among them, Datang's first batch of admirals, naval instructors and ocean-going captains will definitely be born.

what is this?

This will be a kind of inheritance, the inheritance of knowledge, the inheritance of spirit, and everything that Zhang Nuo has devoted to the Naval Academy and the Navy will be passed down from generation to generation along these inheritances.

Zhang Nuo attached great importance to this point, and at the same time was pleasantly surprised.

Different from technology, Zhang Nuo didn't feel much about technology. After all, he made it to make his life better from the very beginning.

Whether it's a train or an airship, the ultimate goal is to make your life more comfortable.

At the same time, those technologies were just given directly to those researchers, and they were asked to follow suit. Regarding this, Zhang Nuo basically didn't feel much about it except that he would be happy for a few days when he harvested the finished product.

Because in his opinion, even without him, in a few hundred years, artillery and other things will appear on this land. As for trains and so on, the main reason is that he himself does not understand the twists and turns inside. around, so there is not much feeling of surprise.

But the navy is different. The navy represents an important symbol of a country's transition from defense to offense, from pure land to sea, land and air.

More importantly, this planet is called the Earth but actually [-]% of its surface is covered with oceans. There are too many places to explore and conquer.

And the navy is Datang's big weapon to conquer the planet.At the same time, the navy is completely different in style and concept from the traditional army in this land.

When those capable men have experienced the storms of nature and tossed and tossed on the sea for a few years, a navy full of vitality will be fully formed.

For Zhang Nuo, there is nothing more fulfilling than creating an army with spirit and heritage from scratch.

Because he might participate in the attack on Fusang. After all, he still likes the silver mines on it, and the population on it is also what he needs.

However, he was too lazy to go to farther places for the time being. Ocean voyages these days are called adventures instead of voyages. Zhang Nuo admits that he is still afraid of death.

Therefore, the navy is the vines, sharp claws and hooks stretched out by Zhang Nuo and also Datang. Sooner or later, it will bring the most lucrative rewards to Datang.

Chapter 727 Zhang Nuo's Happy Days

Zhang Nuo, who was still smiling and sleeping drunk at the New Year's banquet in the palace, would naturally not be woken up. A familiar servant had brought him a blanket to cover him.

There are also palace maids serving him to take off his shoes, these are his treatment in the palace.

But it's a bit inappropriate to run outside early in the morning. According to the rules, shouldn't you say goodbye to His Majesty?

It's a pity that Zhang Nuo doesn't have this awareness at all. To him, it's like drinking too much at a brother's house. After sleeping on the sofa at his house, he just gets up and goes home. Does he still have to sit there and be polite? Angrily waiting for someone to wake up and say hello?

Damn, buddy's house is right next door, it's only a few steps away, who would want to waste time fooling around with you.

Of course, the main reason why Zhang Nuo left in such a hurry was because the airship that picked him up had arrived.

This airship is now almost becoming his means of transportation to and from get off work, and he will fly this way as soon as he sends a telegram.

Of course, it's obviously not worthwhile to just use the airship to commute to and from get off work. Zhang Nuo thought of this thing as a means of transportation for both passenger and cargo.

Bring some special food and gadgets here from Chang'an, and they will be taken over by several major chambers of commerce when they arrive in Pyongyang City. Not to mention how much the people from Guannei miss their hometown. Koreans who have some money in their hands all want to try the food and souvenirs of the imperial capital.

Of course, when flying back to Chang'an from Pyongyang, it will naturally not be empty. Some chambers of commerce here will always have some high-value or urgent things that need to be brought from Pyongyang to Chang'an.

Even if Zhang Nuo didn't do the reselling business himself, at least the shipping fee would allow him to keep the airship running normally and earn a lot of money at the same time.

After Zhang Nuo came out of the palace, he went straight home. Cao Xing was obviously in a good mood, smiling all the way, but Zhang Nuo's bulging stomach was an eyesore to Zhang Nuo.

Damn, this was a military commander, but he ended up being the captain of his own bodyguard, and he became a driver forcibly, not to mention getting fatter, and the most terrible thing is that he didn't gain a little weight, but The kind that grows fat directly, obviously pulls down the martial arts.

But it's just the new year, so it's a bit unlucky to jump around and swear, so wait until the first month is over before torturing him.

Today's Lantian City already has a mature airship landing field. This thing is next to the school field, and the management is very strict. After all, airships have too strict requirements for fire protection. Basically, the kind where people and houses are gone, it’s impossible to be careless.

When Zhang Nuo came to this place called the Airship Field by the locals, it was already time for the big guys in Lantian City to go to work. You could see workers in overalls chatting and walking towards the workshop everywhere on the street. .

Zhang Nuo's car was no longer a rare thing. Everyone knew which car belonged to His Highness King Qin and which car belonged to His Majesty, so when Zhang Nuo's car drove past, everyone smiled and said hello.

For Zhang Nuo, these people sincerely treat him as their own family. In their eyes, Zhang Nuo is their main family. The food, housing, and work are all owned by others. That is a family. See It is natural to be enthusiastic.

After all, there is only one place in the entire Tang Dynasty, where the right to education can be covered from toddlers to teenagers.

In the eyes of the people of Lantian City, this is the heart of a bodhisattva. With such a city lord, what are you talking about.

Besides, Zhang Nuo himself was not the kind of unpredictable, majestic and mysterious emperor like the previous emperors. He wandered around on weekdays and always smiled when he saw people.

So, seeing Zhang Nuo's car passing by now, everyone can't help shouting auspicious words such as His Highness Qin Wang.

Zhang Nuo also opened the window with a smile and waved to the outside, which was regarded as a greeting.

In fact, Zhang Nuo likes this kind of feeling very much. No matter what others remember him for, he misses the feeling of having acquaintances wherever he goes, and finding food wherever he goes.

In later generations, he grew up in the family area of ​​the factory since he was a child. The big state-owned factory is really good in this respect, not to mention other things. From the supply and marketing cooperative, the small store to the vegetable market, they are all insiders, and everyone does not know each other. For a day or two, they are all colleagues who work together and commute together.

At that time, Zhang Nuo felt the way he does now. Everywhere he went, he was greeted by people, and he basically knew each other when he saw people. Sometimes even when his parents worked overtime, the uncles and aunts next door would come over and say hello, your parents Work overtime today, go to my house for dinner.

Then Zhang Nuo passed by without any embarrassment, because when these uncles and aunts were too busy for themselves, their children would come over to eat.

No one thinks that it’s a big deal when the children come to eat at home, and no one thinks that the children from next door have to be treated specially when they come to eat. What, cook more rice at most.

It's a pity that after the factory closed down, as more and more people left, this feeling became weaker and weaker.However, compared to the big cities, it is still much better.

Now in Lantian City, Zhang Nuo has regained this feeling. I have to say, this feeling is really good.

Zhang Nuo took some time to greet people on the way. When he arrived at the airship field, the goods to be transported had already been moved up, and he could take off immediately.

Zhang Nuo didn't delay, and went directly to the front cabin.

And when Zhang Nuo came up, he took off without saying a word, and flew straight to Pyongyang. They were all waiting for this master over there. To be honest, no one dared to intervene in things like the navy except him.

It's not that he can't see the rights and interests in it, but that no one except him knows how to develop this brand new army from equipment to tactics to income.

Even if many people were about to make a move, they were pushed down by other people. Some of them used their mouths or knives to let them understand that His Highness King Qin's advantage is not so easy to take advantage of.

In fact, Li Shimin and the really smart bigwigs in the court knew that according to Zhang Nuo's habit, after this thing was really established, Zhang Nuo would take it with him once or twice at most, and let it go on the right track before letting it go.

That was the time for everyone to take action. Now, if His Royal Highness King Qin decides to take over, who can guarantee that he can take over smoothly?

If you don't have that diamond, don't do that porcelain work!

Chapter 728 Rapidly Developing Pyongyang

It was already night when Zhang Nuo arrived in Pyongyang, but fortunately, today's airships have already mastered the technology of taking off and landing at night.

It’s nothing more than paying attention to the relationship between lighting and fire prevention. It’s really done. In fact, the problem is not very big. After all, the airship is not like the aircraft of later generations. It doesn’t need to find a runway or the like. When you feel that you are not aligned, you can fly up and move a few times.

After Zhang Nuo got off the airship, he went directly to the palace to rest.

Today's Koryo Palace basically doesn't look much like the Koryo Palace back then. After all, Zhang Nuo has lived and worked here for a long time. In this broken palace.

They pinched their noses and recognized it in Lantian City. After all, it could only be regarded as Zhang Nuo’s private house, and he lived with His Majesty and the Supreme Emperor. Because it involved an emperor, a former emperor, and King Qin, Zhang Nuo didn’t need to show up. , Li Shimin sent the Ministry of Rites back.

With great difficulty, he found such a place for his father to take care of him, and at the same time eased the relationship with his father, and at the same time found himself a comfortable resort like a palace.

If the Ministry of Rituals is tossing about this, according to the rules, their mansions alone would occupy a large area, and they would have to walk for a long time to meet each other, so what the hell?

The Ministry of Rites in Lantian City can't make troubles anymore, but they can make troubles in Pyongyang City. In the eyes of the people in the Ministry of Rites, this prince with great status and great achievements does not have a serious Qin Palace, he is simply beating the Ministry of Rites The face is also the face of the part-time job department.

After all, the construction of the mansion should come from the Ministry of Industry, and the Ministry of Rites only cares about various rules, so when the big bosses and officials of the two ministries combined, it happened that there was no major movement in the country during this period, and His Majesty did not think about building a palace or Palace or something.

That's it, let's go to Pyongyang and get a King Qin mansion for His Highness King Qin.

So, you say that this group of people wants to stick to the rules or flatter. Anyway, after Zhang Nuo nodded and when he was still confused, he built a standard Qin Palace.

This is not comparable to the small Koryo palace in the past. There are rules in every building, from the height, width, and decorations of the gate to the front yard, middle yard, and backyard. Not only the rooms, but also the The furniture and decorations inside are transported to you directly and steadily by special personnel from the customs.

Of course, after the inspection by the Ministry of Rituals, it is considered that there is no violation of the regulations. After you have everything you should have, your Highness King Qin will toss about the things you don’t understand. up.

Then Zhang Nuo put his own Simmons beds back in.

Regarding the ideas of these people, in fact Zhang Nuo can only say that he does not support or oppose it. He is not from the imperial capital. Apart from lamenting the terrifying price of the courtyard house, he does not feel how comfortable living in it is.

Therefore, even if the new Prince Qin's mansion is decorated with all kinds of carved beams and paintings, in Zhang Nuo's eyes, it's just that. After all, what he wants is to live at home, not to make his home look like a museum.

After resting in the palace for the whole night, Zhang Nuo had to go to the port again. After all, the Naval Academy was there, and the new naval port was also there.
