The Sun and the Lion
Chapter 21 Ismail
There are many ships parked at the dock, some of which are warships belonging to Shirvanshah's Caspian Navy. Fishing boats account for the largest proportion. The Caspian Sea is rich in fishery resources. Many residents of coastal villages and cities are engaged in the fishing industry. The seafood produced every year can not only be consumed locally, but can also be sold inland. For the lords of Tabaristan, Fishing is also a major source of income, but after the 19th century, fishing rights in the Caspian Sea were ceded to Russia through unequal treaties.
In addition to warships and fishing boats, the rest are the transport ships of merchants and lords. Although the Caspian Sea shipping industry is not as prosperous as the Black Sea and the Mediterranean, the commercial activities between Astrakhan in the north and the cities on the south coast are enough to support a group of shipping companies. A professional person.
The few ships that just parked in belonged to Ali Mirza, the lord of Gilan. One of the ships carried several passengers, and one of the passengers was very important to Ibrahim.
Not long after receiving the news, Ibrahim arrived at the dock. Along the way, the fierce bow-wielders raised their whips to clear the way to ensure that the Sudan would not be delayed due to traffic jams. When the poor people and businessmen saw the bow-holders, they obediently leaned on both sides of the street. No one was strong-headed. When Ibrahim passed by on horseback, everyone lowered their heads and looked at the ground.
However, Ibrahim's advance was not very fast, and the dust raised by the horses' hooves was not much, and the people on both sides of the street were not covered in dust.
After Ibrahim's team passed, the people on both sides of the street breathed a sigh of relief and continued to do their own thing. However, several businessmen who went to the dock were dumbfounded when they arrived and had to continue waiting nearby.
"Your Majesty, we're here." The bow holder leading the way respectfully reminded Ibrahim at the rear after arriving at the dock.
Ibrahim dismounted, and the accompanying bow holders also dismounted. After leaving a few people to look after the horses, a team of dozens of people rushed to the inside of the dock. After a while, they arrived at Lord Gilan's ship's position. .
The passengers on the boat had already disembarked. Ibrahim immediately saw Ismail in the middle. The few next to him were monks stranded in Gilan. Ali Mirza also took this opportunity to send them away. Back.
"Dear Sheikh." The captain of the guard stepped forward and saluted Ibrahim, and then said: "I am sending your brother to Baku on the orders of my master Ali Mirza Kakia. and escorted a shipment to the Safavid order’s warehouse.”
Then the escort captain turned sideways, and the escorted people reappeared in Ibrahim's field of vision. A group of dock workers were also urgently recruited to transport the goods. The carriage responsible for transporting the goods blocked the traffic at the dock because it was not scheduled in advance. .
Several monks stepped forward and saluted Ibrahim, "Okay, I welcome back those who can contribute to the cause of the order. Instructor Hussein will arrange work for you." He waved his hand, Several monks were dismissed by Ibrahim and left the dock on foot.
Then, the "brutal man-eating monster" walked towards Ismail step by step, but the young Ismail did not step back, but looked curiously at the second brother in front of him whom he had not seen for a long time. Of course, because Ibrahim's escape changed history, the three brothers did not go to prison together, so Ismail had relatively little memory of Ibrahim, and his impression of him still remained.
When he came up to him, Ibrahim directly picked up Ismail as if he were holding a cat. Faced with the sudden shock, little Ismail seemed very resistant, but it was a joke in the face of Ibrahim's absolute strength advantage.
Then Ibrahim also realized that it was inappropriate to do this in public, so he put Ismail down. In order to appease him, Ibrahim took out snacks from his pocket and stuffed Ismail with a few pieces of candy. Q.
With his mouth full of candy, Ismail followed Ibrahim obediently. From then on, toothache would accompany the future emir throughout his life.
On the way back to the palace, Ibrahim thought about how to educate his younger brother. He thought for a long time. At first, Ibrahim just wanted his younger brother to only receive military education. But after thinking about it for a while, In order to prepare for unexpected events, Ibrahim decided to educate Ismail in the same way as he would educate his heirs.
After a while, Ismail finished the candy in his mouth. Little Ismail, who was riding on the horse and leaning against Ibrahim, just looked up at Ibrahim without making a sound. But Ibrahim was so focused on riding that he didn't notice his brother's little movement.
Returning to the palace, Ibrahim found Hussein, who was handling government affairs, and discussed with him about Ismail's education.
"Your Majesty, I'm not refusing. There are really too many affairs in the territory. I really don't have the energy to help you educate Sheikh Ismail. Find Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan.com" After hearing that Ibrahim planned to put this When an important task was given to him, Hussein just answered this sentence helplessly.
"Mentor, who do you think can take on this important task?"
"You, Your Majesty." Hussein looked at Ibrahim.
"Me? Tutor, I'm just as busy as you."
None of the top leaders of the Safavid Order had experience in governing the country. Although Ibrahim appointed various viziers after taking possession of the territory, only the military, academic affairs and intelligence departments could function normally, and ministers in other departments had no experience in governing the country. Without the ability to handle official duties, the work of the religious order actually fell on Ibrahim and Hussein. If Ibrahim went on an expedition, Hussein would be the only one to handle it.
"Except for you, I can't think of anyone more suitable to educate Ismail Sheikh, Your Majesty. Besides, how long has it been since you and Ismail Sheikh have seen each other? As for government affairs, if you are willing to hire me more If you have more staff, I can monopolize all the positions. You can fire all the other viziers and save some salary." Hussein stroked his beard and responded syllable by syllable, venting his thoughts on the other viziers by the way. dissatisfaction.
Ibrahim almost took a breath. One person took over all the duties. How dare he say this?
"One person replaces all the viziers? I don't allow this to happen. Do you think you have a long life? Do you want to take so many official documents into the coffin?" Ibrahim said this sentence with a smile. It was as if Hussein had just told a joke.
"Isn't it necessary to make sacrifices for the cause of the Order? However, it is still too unrealistic for one person to hold all positions, and it will also be criticized."
"Well, I won't bother you with Ismail's matter." Ibrahim just gently revealed it, quickly ended the topic, and then exited Hussein's office.
