I'm really not doing business

Chapter 498 Shooting yourself in the foot

In the memorial, Ling Yunyi described Zhao Juan's misery at length, in order to tell the emperor that if the production relations of selling one's body and relying on one's body were not changed, these tragedies in the world would only continue to be staged, so the engineering regiment camp was needed. , need to be organized by the government and factories, and then create a kind of equality.

Even a kind of relative equality with inequality is better than the current situation.

The idea of ​​equality is not imported. Even Confucianism, which emphasizes hierarchical and patriarchal order, also pursues equality.

Filial piety is the official order in which everyone, high or low, has their own proper place, so it shows that future generations have the order of respecting the senior and the young. Under the ritual system, the division of labor is clear and everyone has his or her own position. This is the ideal country of Confucianism and the world of great harmony. Confucianism pursues equality between high and low. , the elders and younger ones are in order.

Confucianism talks about filial piety, but it also talks about equality.

For example, Confucius said: Those who have a country and a family will not worry about inequality but poverty, and they will not worry about poverty but insecurity. He also said: Love everyone universally and teach without distinction. Mencius said: Saints are the same as me, Yao and Shun are the same as others. Everyone can be like Yao and Shun;

The benevolent government advocated by Confucianism is that people without distinction should love each other and be benevolent.

Even Confucianism, which advocates strict hierarchy, contains equality at its core, let alone the opinions of other schools.

For example, the Taoist Lao Tzu said: Sages often have no intention and take the hearts of the people as their heart; Zhuangzi said, looking at it from the perspective of Taoism, what is noble and what is despicable? All things are one, which one is short and which one is long?
The Mohists say: People are no longer noble or low, and they are all ministers of heaven. Officials are not always noble, and people are not always low. If you are capable, you will be promoted, and if you are incompetent, you will be demoted.
Legalists say: Officials do not have personal relationships, and the law does not leave behind love. Nothing matters up or down, only the Dharma is there;
As a representative of Legalism, Shang Yang put more emphasis on the equality of laws and clearly proposed one punishment in the reform. The so-called one punishment has no level of punishment. From the ministers and generals to the officials and common people, there are those who disobey the king's orders or violate the national prohibitions. , Those who rebel against the superior will be punished with death, and it gradually evolved into the prince breaking the law and committing the same crime as the common people.

Wan Shihe reported this change in a timely manner. Several poetry societies that advocated complete freedom appeared in Songjiang Prefecture, Nanya 14th Prefecture, and Jingtang. These poetry societies published various articles and their voices were immediately overshadowed. He read Lin Fucheng's "Xiaoyao Yiwen" and quickly swept across the country.

Even so, Ling Yunyi still had to wait until the emperor built the Ten Kings City and moved the princes and princes of Henan back to Beijing before he could take action.

Is this redemption? This is clearly a robbery! One tael of silver buys an acre of land, why did the Emperor of Ming Dynasty rob it openly and openly? !

Zhang Juzheng himself proposed returning the land, but immediately denied it because of insufficient strength. The only forces belonging to the imperial court were the Beijing camp, and Jiubian was responsible for guarding the border. It was mainly defensive and did not have the ability to conquer. Moreover, it launched a war to return the land. Can it be mobilized? , is also an unknown quantity.

"Does this count as shooting oneself in the foot?" Zhu Yijun looked at Shen Shixing's memorial and said, somewhat dumbfounded.

This implementation will be very difficult, so the focus of this imperial edict is still to encourage farmers and mulberry trees, that is, to encourage landlords and rural gentry not to let their land be abandoned for a long time and collect less land rent. Tenants will be willing to farm. If If the landlords, rural gentry and gentry refuse, they will confiscate the land, turn it into official land, and summon tenants to rent the land.

Weapons of criticism cannot replace weapons of criticism, and material power can only be destroyed with material power.

The slave rebellion that swept through Jiading, Taicang, and Kunshan in Suzhou, if not for the quick response of the navy, would probably have broken through Fuzhou County.

After becoming the emperor's lackey and losing the support of the influential local gentry, Lin Fucheng was just a talkative scholar.

Just as the Emperor of Ming Dynasty was about to take a heavy blow, directly using the name of evil demon books and prophecies to seduce the completely free school of thought, an unexpected news was introduced into the capital, causing an uproar.

The people of Zhenbo (the capital of the Xia Dynasty) pointed to the sun and cursed Xia Jie: The days are mourning, and I and you will all perish;
That roar from Daze Township, princes, generals and prime ministers, would you rather have the guts?

The Jiangnan Slave Rebellion broke out in many places such as Nanya Shifu, Zhejiang, Huguang, Jiangxi and other places. This was a slave revolt that took up arms and demanded body deeds.

At that point, no one can be dignified and there is no way to end it.

The focus of the imperial edict is to encourage farmers to grow mulberry trees.

Qi Jiguang returned to Beijing, and the slight noise became quiet as the army returned to their nests. An imperial edict from the Ming Emperor was suddenly transmitted from Tonghe Palace to Wenyuan Pavilion. The ministers of Wenyuan Pavilion went to the imperial study room and palace of Tonghe Palace. After deliberation, His Majesty the Emperor wrote six chapters of the imperial edict and began to implement it.

Lin Fucheng, the leader of the liberal group, was no longer in name only. At this time, Lin Fucheng realized that his fame was not an accident at all, nor was it a gift of fate, but that the price had been secretly marked long ago.

The core content of the entire imperial edict is that leaving the land uncultivated is simply a sin!

In Sichuan and Shaanxi, my illness and wealth are unequal, but now it is equalized for you;

"The top priority now is to calm down the slave rebellion in Jiading area. Once the slave rebellion evolves into civil unrest, it will be very dangerous."

Zhang Juzheng bowed his head and said: "The area of ​​Susong was rich and prosperous, and slavery was a common practice. Especially after the opening of the sea, a large number of people poured into Susong, which made the trend of slavery here intensify. The Jiangnan conflict with Sochi has always existed, but there was no trouble. So powerful.”

Zhu Yijun thought that Lin Fu became the Songjiang School to promote his own, so he deliberately exaggerated the scale and scope of the Jiangnan slave rebellion. Isn’t this what scholars like best? After selling anxiety, you can sell your own theories and then put a stamp on your thoughts.

Songjiang Governor Shen Shixing and the Songjiang Town Navy responded quickly and were now in a confrontation.

There were many such scholars in Ming Dynasty.

The Ming Dynasty's administrative power has not yet exerted its force. This wave of absolute freedom set off by the luxury households has already reaped the consequences. Zhu Yijun looked at Zhang Juzheng and frowned and said: "It turns out that Lin Fucheng was not an alarmist at the beginning."

Do you really want to wait for Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong to appear and shout those two sentences to make the world change color before you do it?
The concept of equality is not imported. Whether it is the metaphysical class of scholar-bureaucrats or the metaphysical poor coolies, it has a broad basis for existence. This was discussed when Lin Fucheng mentioned the word equality.

Therefore, Lingyun relied on the Holy Family at the top and the 1,500 guest soldiers who had experienced hundreds of battles. At the bottom, he relied on the poor coolies who had been oppressed and deprived of their lives. They were also supported by the official factory regiments and engineering corps that had been tested for a long time. With the institutional experience of the camp, the situation quickly opened up in Henan.

Land abandonment is included in the examination. There are bureaus at all levels. If the land has been abandoned for more than five years and will not be cultivated next year, the cadastre will be abolished and returned to the public. If it has been abandoned for three years, the land will be redeemed by the cadastre. If it has been abandoned for one year, a tax will be increased. This is the first time in the Ming Dynasty. After the land was cleared, the fields were carefully managed.

If Ming Dynasty wants to complete the return of the land, it needs more strength. Your Majesty has been accumulating strength.

The golden toads fight for their eyes, overthrowing the rebellion of Caozhou and making the world equal;

From top to bottom, from bottom to top, the idea that all things are one and neither noble nor humble is one of the backbones of the Central Plains and one of the cultural connotations.

Zhu Yijun immediately said: "No, is it wrong for Shen Shixing to implement the imperial decree? The abolition of the slave status was approved by the Wenhua Palace. It is a true imperial edict and a decision of Ming Gong. Shen Shixing There is nothing wrong and the problem should be solved instead of passing the responsibility down to the executive governor.”

In the Jiading area alone, there were 70,000 people. They gathered in the mountains, forests and water villages, and raised the banner of "Eradicate the masters and servants, the noble and the humble, the rich and the poor, and level them all." They swept across Kunshan, Taicang, and Jiading. If they refused, If you hand over the land deed, you can imagine what will happen.

If we wait a few more years, we will have the words of Li Zicheng, waiting for wealth, equalizing the land and freeing grain;
Or to be more equal, what Zhang Xianzhong proposed: All things are born with humans, and humans have nothing with heaven, kill, kill, kill!

But after the 615 million acres in Jiangxi were redeemed at the price of "one tael", the theory of complete freedom made a comeback again.

All the philosophers and schools of thought talked about equality and fairness. This was the top-level structure. Throughout the dynasties, there were even more discussions about equality, and they were more intuitive, more direct, and more violent.

The emperor was slowly but firmly promoting the return of the land, using various methods.

But now it seems that Lin Fucheng was not exaggerating at all! But he was too conservative, or because of his status as a scholar-official, he was unable to fully understand the misery of slave life in Jiangnan, and lacked an understanding of the scale of the slave rebellion.

The inner treasuries of Chang'an City were burnt to ashes, and the bones of public ministers were trampled on in the streets;

Naturally, the powerful right-wingers and rural gentry were extremely dissatisfied, and this dissatisfaction was intuitively reflected in the rise of the theory of complete freedom. Originally, Lin Fucheng and Legas had exposed the real Taishi, and Ling Yunyi and others After Dun Lao Quan, the doctrine of complete freedom fell into silence.

The Dharma by the Dongting Lake divides the noble and the humble, and is not a good Dharma. When I practice the Dharma, I should treat the noble and the humble, the rich and the poor;

"After Shen Shixing abolished his humble status and destroyed his deeds in Songjiang Prefecture, it directly led to the enslavement of slaves in nearby Jiading, Taicang, and Kunshan. It was not just because of the trend of absolute freedom, because it had not spread downwards so quickly."

"I partially agree with what you said, but I don't agree with your criticism of Shen Shixing. He did nothing wrong."

"Your Majesty is wise." Zhang Juzheng thought for a moment and said immediately that Shen Shixing was not wrong about this. Jiading, Taicang, and Kunshan are the boundaries of Suzhou.

Zhang Juzheng is not being alarmist. At present, the conflict in Sochi is intensifying to the most intense level. Only Suzhou Prefecture and many other places are sitting in Sochi. Even the slaves heard about the cancellation of the contract in Songjiang Prefecture and immediately went to Sochi. They stopped working, gathered together, sat on the ground, and waited for the results.

If Jiading is not handled well, civil unrest will spread throughout Nanya, Zhejiang, and Jiangxi, and it is about to break out.

"Sir, do you think there is a possibility that if the people are in chaos, the people will be in chaos?" Zhu Yijun tapped his fingers on the table and asked calmly.

"Your Majesty." Zhang Juzheng knew it! I read it right at first!
Your Majesty is that indescribable monster!

This sentence is not based on the perspective of a happy person who is watching the excitement and is not afraid of big troubles. Rather, His Majesty wants to speed up the return of land, speed up the redistribution of production means, and speed up the elimination of strong personal dependence, even if it is with the help of the people. The power of chaos will not be spared!

"Your Majesty, the prosperity of the people is miserable, and the destruction of the people is even more miserable. People in troubled times are not as good as peace dogs. If civil strife breaks out, the people will wither and mourn." Zhang Juzheng solemnly advised: "Really rely on the power of civil strife, not the engineering corps When camps, government agencies and factories create laws, the people who suffer the most are the people.”

"The people are the foundation of a country, and the foundation is the foundation of a country's peace."

"Civil chaos is disordered, without any organization, and even only has a simple slogan, how to eradicate masters and servants, noble and humble? What are the specific methods? Can the rich and the poor really be equalized? Even in Beijing Even if the camp cannot be evenly matched, the generals and generals will still be rewarded more for this expedition against Bansheng."

"Empty and empty slogans will only bring harm! But they cannot solve any problems. Unorganized civil unrest will only evolve into destruction in the end. After production is completely destroyed, it is the people who bear the price."

Seeing that Zhang Juzheng was getting more and more excited as he spoke, Zhu Yijun hurriedly sat up straight, smiled brightly, and said gently: "Sir, don't be anxious, don't be anxious, what you said is very reasonable, just follow what you said."

"That's what I said. Sir, you don't need to care so much. The world belongs to me. How can I make him mess up?" Only those who don't care or get excited are stupid. Believing in your emperor's words is stupid!

If Master Dao, after despair, hid in Xiyuan to cultivate and destroy, then after His Majesty despair, he will definitely transform into an indescribable monster, intensify the most fundamental contradiction, set off a prairie fire with a single spark, and destroy the entire world. Burned to the ground, tear it down and start over!
Zhang Juzheng's judgment is not unfounded. He knows Your Majesty very well! Look at the practical implementation of the unity of knowledge and action, look at the theory of contradiction, look at the theory of public and private, look at the production diagram, look at the first two volumes of the theory of class, these were all made under the leadership of His Majesty, and in despair. , I will definitely make up for the last two volumes, I will definitely do it!
Will!

"What should we do about the riot in Sochi in Jiading?" Zhu Yijun looked at Zhang Juzheng and asked with a smile.

Zhang Juzheng bowed his head and said: "Just leave it to me. This matter is actually very simple, not that complicated. The slaves are asking for nothing more than a physical contract."

In comparison, is civil unrest a big deal?
In the early years of Jiajing, Longqing and Wanli, were there not enough civil unrest?
All the slaves need to do is calm down the excited slaves, make a promise to conduct a census of the population within a time limit, complete the abolition of lowly status and deeds, and then use the military to organize engineering regiments, camps, official factories, and resettlement, and fulfill the promises within the deadline. Changing things is nothing. Zhang Juzheng could handle it without these tools before. Now that he has these tools, it is even easier.

Zhang Juzheng said that His Majesty would rest and let him settle the matter. If His Majesty were to take action, it would probably not be settled.

He briefly stated his idea to the emperor. The specific implementation would be carried out by Governor Yingtian, Governor Songjiang, and Songjiang Town Navy. Officials from all levels of Suzhou Prefecture should issue orders together and be demoted to three levels until the census of Dingkou and the abolition of Dingkou were completed. After becoming a slave, you can then recover.

"Sir, you are an official of the country." Zhu Yijun approved Zhang Juzheng's handling method. Zhang Juzheng was a conservative and did not intend to use this matter to expand the situation.

Zhu Yijun has no plans to further intensify the conflict. The power in his hands is not strong enough. When the day comes when the engineer regiment camps are everywhere, Zhu Yijun wants to see who dares to threaten the people's self-respect.

After Zhang Juzheng left the study room of Tonghe Palace, he really wiped away a cold sweat. He successfully sealed the monster again. While he was happy, he was a little worried. After he left, who would seal it?

There is no one left.

But actually thinking about it carefully, His Majesty is not the kind of person who pursues disorder and uses the most drastic means to resolve conflicts. As long as His Majesty is not plunged into complete despair, everything is easy to talk about.

Zhang Juzheng's processing speed is extremely fast. The time limit for arrival from Shuntian Prefecture to Yingtian Prefecture is fifteen days, while the limit time for arrival from Shuntian Prefecture to Songjiang Prefecture is two days. The rapid transmission of Daming Coastal Defense Inspections has made the delivery speed of coastal government orders faster than This is one of the results of the Ming Dynasty's simultaneous development of land and sea.

Shen Shixing's hand stretched a little too long. He was the governor of Songjiang. Kunshan, Jiading, and Taicang were the territories of Suzhou, and they were the jurisdiction of Governor Li Le of Yingtian. Although they were all under Zhang Juzheng's sect, competition was common.

When Li Le arrived in Jiading, Shen Shixing had already restrained the further expansion of the slave rebellion and even opened a porridge shed to prevent further intensification of conflicts.

"Governor Shen really wants to make progress." Li Le felt strangely angry when he saw Shen Shixing.

Shen Shixing's hand was stretched too far, and because Shen Shixing wanted to make progress too much, he abolished the status of slave and walked in front of everyone. Don't you be envious of the slaves of Suzhou Mansion?

Therefore, Li Le had some resentment towards Shen Shixing. Like Zhang Juzheng, he felt that Shen Shixing's move to abolish the status of slaves was too fast and led to slave rebellion.

Shen Shixing didn't say much, but took out a volume and handed it to Li Le. After reading it, Li Le exhaled and said, "Fortunately, the governor arrived in time, otherwise it might have caused a catastrophe."

At this moment, Li Le could only feel lucky. The problem was more serious than Li Le imagined.

We are fighting Sochi, but the armed struggle can cause the earth to collapse if we are not careful. Civil unrest spreads very quickly and can easily trigger responses from surrounding states and counties. Seven virtuous gentry from their hometowns have been destroyed because they refused to hand over their deeds. This kind of disordered movement will expand rapidly. When the sticks touch the fire, they will catch fire. The slaves of Sochi are the sticks, and the broken houses and households are the flames.

Once the slave revolution turns into civil chaos, I'm afraid Li Le will have to go to Beijing to plead guilty. Shen Shixing was close, and there was a navy stationed there, who reacted quickly and eliminated a catastrophic disaster invisible.

Li Lede thanked Shen Shixing.

"I want to inherit Sir's legacy." Shen Shixing said calmly: "So, I must do everything well and not embarrass Your Majesty and Sir."

It is a pity that the mantle of Mr. Xiang was never intended to be passed on to his disciples, but to His Majesty. This was already determined after Gao Gong was dismissed and Zhang Juzheng issued the No. 1 Order on Matters of Suiwei. Of course, the mantle of the New Deal will be passed on. I don't want to come here, but my husband's position as chief assistant can still be plotted.

Shen Shixing really wants to make progress.

"I didn't realize you had such great ambitions before." Li Le said with some doubts: "What about your previous attitude of not fighting and being content with others?"

Shen Shixing has a nickname, Master Duanshui, which is another way of saying He Xini.

"People change." Shen Shixing said with emotion: "If you can do it, who wouldn't want to do it?"

Shen Shixing's character is considered conservative and moderate among Zhang Dang, and he is somewhat indifferent, but the opportunity is right in front of him, and Shen Shixing has to change. He really wants to make progress.

No scholar can avoid the temptation of leaving a lasting legacy.

“I originally thought that what catalyzed the Jiading Slave Rebellion was that Songjiang Prefecture completed the abolition of slave registration, which stimulated the already tense situation. But in fact, this was not the case at all. It was the chaos caused by the Poetry Society and Bookstore that advocated absolute freedom. "Shen Shixing took out another miscellaneous newspaper, printed by Jiading Jingyuan Bookstore, which completely intensified the conflict.

"It's your own fault! It's your own fault!" After reading this newspaper, Li Le immediately slapped the table and said angrily: "It's your own fault! You deserve it!"

Li Le almost jumped up after reading the newspaper. The content inside was too outrageous.

This miscellaneous newspaper was the core of the intensified conflicts. It was not at all what Zhang Juzheng believed that the abolition of lowly slave status in Songjiang Mansion stimulated the Suzhou slaves.

The opinions in the newspapers included the unfaithful remarks that had led Ling Yunyi to beat people before, and the three unfreedoms of abolition of slave status, especially the fact that slaves lost the freedom to choose to live as a slave.

In the eyes of the masters, giving a slave a mouthful of food is a reward. The slave should kneel on the ground to be grateful. Is it humiliation to take off his clothes and kneel down as a punishment? This is enlightenment!
In addition, the contents of the miscellaneous newspapers also advocated the abolition of official factory regiments and engineer regiments, because they interfered with the freedom of trade.

The transformation of official factory regiments into craftsmen and the engineering regiments into engineers was the last hope for the slaves in the Jiangnan region.

This miscellaneous newspaper advocated that all official factories of coal, steel, woolen goods, weaving, shipbuilding, tongyuan, chidao, plantations, etc., be immediately sold to the private sector, because the existence of these official factories seriously undermines the fairness of trade. , relying on the advantage of scale to forcibly stabilize market prices, resulting in private companies losing all their investment, private companies being unwilling to invest, and destroying market transaction fairness, etc.

Moreover, the craftsmen are eager to enter official factories, but are unwilling to work in private workshops, destroying the production of private workshops. The solution is to sell the official factories, the source of all this original sin, to the private sector, and everything will be done. The problem can be solved easily.

"No, are they planning to steal His Majesty's money?" Li Le immediately became a little unbearable. He pointed at the newspaper and said, "Who are they going to rob? His Majesty's money? This is all saved by His Majesty's frugality. Money, the results of a large investment, they can eat whatever they want?"

The Ming Dynasty is an era in which there is no separation between the monarch, the monarch, and the monarch. Public and private affairs are not completely distinguished. This year, His Majesty still feels that the state funds have been invested too much, and the internal funds are still sufficient. He plans to explode a wave of gold coins. These people who advocate absolute freedom Guy, you actually want to rob His Majesty’s fixed assets? !

Half of the profits of all official factories must go into internal funds. To sell the official factories is to rob His Majesty's fixed assets!
At this point, Li Le completely understood why these slaves suddenly rose up in rebellion, even before the decree was implemented. If he acted according to the contents of the miscellaneous report, it would cut off the hope in the hearts of all the slaves and completely destroy them. In order to meet their expectations, it would be strange if the trouble did not reach Sochi.

In the eyes of the slaves, becoming an engineer in the engineering regiment is like becoming His Majesty's domestic slave. The difference is that the Emperor's domestic slaves can have enough to eat.

The slaves did not understand the official factory. They did not know that their children could still go to school, that they could receive reasonable labor remuneration, and that they could freely choose their jobs. They did not know that they could join private workshops if they did not want to work in the official factory.

The slaves cannot understand the transformation of production relations. What they can understand is that being His Majesty's domestic slaves means that they can have enough to eat.

Even so, there is enough temptation.

"It's not like we haven't taken over it. Emperor Cheng Zuwen's craftsmen at that time, so many shipyards, industries in the long industrial chain of shipyards, and official factories relying on the maritime trade in the Western Seas, weren't they all covering the luxury households? By inciting public opinion and using the power of the government to coerce the government, did you finally get it?" Shen Shixing's expression was quite calm. The seniors have done it, so the juniors just have to follow in their footsteps.

This kind of thing happened again and again, using the power of wind to coerce the government, just to steal some of your emperor's fixed assets.

Benevolence talks about people without equal differences loving each other, but it has never been done.

"The large sailing ship arrived at Songjiang Port on the first day of June. Many envoys from Europe and the West expressed surprise at the Jiading slave incident and asked whether it would affect the large sailing ship's maritime trade." Shen Shixing talked about another incident, which was embarrassing and embarrassing. Tessie went.

The moment Shen Shixing was asked, he wanted to hack all the Taixi envoys to death, so that no friendly country would be surprised.

If Shen Shixing's radical behavior and the abolition of slave status caused the slave change, Shen Shixing would have tolerated it. The feelings were these miscellaneous reports printed everywhere and finally intensified the conflict, which really made Shen Shixing furious.

This is indeed shooting oneself in the foot. The right-wing insistence on absolute freedom has intensified the contradiction to such an extent.

"The imperial court sent an imperial edict to warn us of our incompetence. Since this is your territory, Governor Li, what should you do?" Shen Shixing talked about the follow-up measures. The Ming Dynasty Navy is going to return to its nest, so how to arrange it?
After Li Le read the imperial edict, he gritted his teeth and said: "Of course it's the engineering corps camp. Let these servants get busy first, and things will change when they are idle. I will go to ask for the deed in person, and I won't let him confiscate my house! Before the end of the year, Nan All the fourteen government offices must conduct a census and abolish the status of slaves!”

"The food provided for these slaves will be shared by the Nanya Zheshe household. If he refuses to pledge the money, he will let the slaves go to his house to ask for the deed!"

"A bunch of idiots who can't accomplish anything but cause trouble!"

Shen Shixing approved Li Le's handling methods, and after in-depth communication with Songjiang Commander-in-Chief Chen Lin, he began to withdraw his troops and prepare to return home.

We haven't left yet. As soon as they heard that the navy was leaving, the Zheshe households in Suzhou went to the Jiading County government office to cry for their parents. They cried and made noises. More and more people gathered together. This was because they were afraid that the navy would leave. Now, these slaves from Juxiao Mountain and Forest have made a comeback and continue to attack Sochi, destroying all houses.

Shen Shixing was too lazy to pay attention to them. Chen Lin began to organize troops to return to Songjiang Town. The governor of Songjiang and the navy commander, as well as the admiral and minister Zhang Cheng, etc., each wrote a memorial to the capital, detailing the causes and consequences of the Jiading slave rebellion, as well as The solution was reported to the court.

This year, the Thai and Western envoys on the large sailing ship also began to arrive at Tianjin Wei on the hydrofoil sailing ship.
