Two hundred and thirtieth chapters cut (four)(1/2)
On the Mid-Autumn Festival in August, Zheng Lang continued to float on the water, and at this time he also arrived in Fanchang. After wandering around the various waters, the group came to Fanchang County. He looked around and saw that Wuhu County was not getting better, so don’t count on Fanchang.
But I heard a good news that the edict had been issued to Taipingzhou.
If too many things had happened, the big guys in the court would also wait and see what freak Zheng Lang had in the end.
Zheng Lang was not in a hurry. After drawing the last sketch, it was all sketched, with various data on it, topographic maps of Xiaowei and lakes and rivers, and some lakes and lakes and lakes. He drew more than 70 drawings in total. He could not do it without having good painting skills and a perverted brain. These drawings and data are reserved as reference for the future and are also to prevent local officials and wealthy families from joining forces to cheat.
Standing on the bow of the boat, the boatman ordered the boatman to shake the boat to the center of the Yangtze River. Instead of looking at the first alum of the Yangtze River, the boat was shaken to the east of the Banzi Rock. There were two small river continents in the east, Black Sand and Natural continents. Black Sand and Natural continents have names, and no one has named it for it.
This section of river is not like the big belly in the future, but it is still very straight. The two small continents have only formed for a short time and are also very small. When the water is large, only a hundred acres of land are exposed outside. When the water is small, it is only seven or eight hundred acres of land together. However, there is a Dajiang continent on the east side of Qingyang County, with two or three thousand acres of land, but that is under the jurisdiction of Qingyang County, and Zheng Lang has no right to interfere.
The two continents also have problems. It is hard to say that they belong to the jurisdiction of Taipingzhou or the Wuwei Army. Forty or fifty families lived there one after another, and they made a living by fishing. They also cultivated some Jiangzhou to grow grain, fruits and vegetables, and subsidize household income. They also do not care about the areas. Is it really sent a yamen runner to drive a boat in order to collect taxes from these dozens of poor families? Is it worth it?
Zheng Lang can manage it but cannot manage it, but he must never climb to the other side of the Yangtze River. If that happens, he will make a principled mistake.
I talked with these fishermen, and when the water was about to wait for the water to disappear, I allocated some people to circle the two continents for them. It was impossible to cover them all. I only circled about 500 acres of area, and did not touch it at the low-lying edges. In this way, even if the river water was huge, the pressure on the river embankment would not be very high.
Each household subsidizes fifty knots of money every year and provides some fertilizer. Their responsibilities are to plant carefully selected crops and beans and melons on two continents. But there is one condition that they will not care about fishing and must serve these crops and melons.
The conditions were very favorable, and the fishermen from both continents agreed immediately. The two sides signed a contract... A small official stumbled and pulled Zheng Lang aside and said, "Zheng Zhizhou, it will cost a lot of money."
"Not much, calculate a little more. A thousand chunks of money a year is enough, but it can obtain nearly two thousand stones of good seeds, which can benefit tens of thousands of acres of acres." Zheng Lang finished speaking, and looked at the little official. Seeing that he didn't understand very well, he explained: "Not much. There are more than tens of thousands of acres of arable land in Dangtu County alone. Is it enough to select seeds from tens of thousands of acres of land? By the second year, the two small continents will be isolated from the world and are not affected by other crop pollen. Further selection will be better? Will the seeds be more favorable? It will be popularized into tens of thousands of acres of fertile land. In ten years, how much farmland will benefit? Not only Taipingzhou, Jiangning, Hezhou, Chizhou, Xuanzhou, Guangde Army, Wuwei Army, and Runzhou, etc. will benefit. Don't have more than one acre of land, how much grain production will be increased?"
This calculation makes the little official confused.
The reason is not difficult, and the Song people also realized the role of pollen.
"What is governing the people, what is taking them from them and using them for them? Is there a lot of money?"
"Not much." The clerk said ashamed, and then leaned down and said, "The magistrate's vision is beyond our reach."
Zheng Lang felt embarrassed this time, because he had a long-term vision, and this idea is not surprising in future generations.
When they boarded the boat again, the fishermen continued to hold the contract in their hands like treasures, and their hearts were rising and falling, so they were afraid that good things would become a bubble. Someone ignored Zheng Lang's reputation and took the contract to the shore, asked for literate reading, and then went back with confidence. Then there was a burst of cheers from the two small continents, and the pie fell from the sky!
The boat went downstream and arrived in Wuhu.
Zhao Tongzhang brought his students and more than a dozen yamen runners to welcome him. Zheng Lang specially asked them to come to Wuhu.
The time is coming to close the net.
But there are not many people in Taipingzhou who know the background, only a few people from Zheng Lang's family, including Zhao Tongzong.
It's time for him to know.
After meeting, Zhao Tongzong said, "Zheng Zheng, as you expected, the court issued an order."
Zheng Lang did not express his opinion, and this incident made him feel ashamed. First, he felt guilty about the victims of Hebei and did not come up with a good idea. Second, he felt guilty about Zhao Zhen. He was easy-going, but very arrogant, and had not many friends. Several good friends in his family were actually gradually alienated due to differences in knowledge and status. Most of the noble people were outsiders and older than him. There were four students in the family, but they invisibly regarded him as an elder.
The only one who can really say is the little emperor. The strange friendship is one of the king and the other is the minister. Maybe Zhao Zhen himself doesn’t know it, but the occasional true feelings make Zheng Lang feel that Zhao Zhen has no friendship to him except for appreciation of him? But Zhao Zhen was powerless to do anything about this blow, which makes him feel even more ashamed.
But when I think of these violent things that the ministers did immediately, I felt sad. Fortunately, I came to Jiangnan, otherwise I would have stood up for Zhao Zhen with my own personality. As long as I stand up, I would have been photographed very miserably.
I stared at the north and thought to myself, Little Emperor, I can only do my part and let you be happy when you see and hear it.
This is my greatest reward.
There is no way, even Lu Yijian's hand with status and skills was bitten bloodily by the Qing ministers. It was terrible and he was looking for death!
Zheng Lang said: "Prime Minister Zhao Tong, take you to see a place, but you must keep it confidential for me for four or five days, and cooperate with me by the way."
"Okay," Zhao Tong responded curiously, so mysterious?
He brought Huan'er, Sier, and Zhao Tongpin to the mysterious garden. The location is southwest of Jimao Mountain. There is a lake here. The changes in the terrain made Zheng Lang very uncertain whether this lake is Jinghu.
But the area should be larger than Jinghu Lake.
Standing at the door were Yang Jiujin and Wang Zhi guarding.
Originally, Zheng Lang paid for it to build it, which caused many speculations. A large number of craftsmen came from behind, bringing a lot of materials, and purchasing a lot of materials in Wuhu, which made people even more curious. The garden was not repaired, the house was not built, and the equipment inside was not done well. However, since the craftsmen entered, they were blocked. So someone quietly lay on the wall to see, but the secret was in several rooms. How could he see it on the wall? This caused some rumors.
Zhao Tongzong also heard about it and asked, "What is inside?"
"You'll know if you take you in and see."
Several people walked in and Shi Congguang and his wife came up. Although they had seen the drawings and explained the principles, they also looked surprised and murmured!"
This made Zheng Lang think of something. If he didn't explain it clearly, there would probably be strange statements spread everywhere, saying: "You immediately ask the craftsmen to carve a statue of Confucius and carve this line of words on the base of the statue."
As he spoke, he asked for paper and pen, wrote down the passage from "The Great Learning", and then wrote two big words: "The Land of Things".
This is also a Confucian scholar, not a way to pretend to be a god or a ghost.
After seeing this, Shi Congguang said solemnly: "That's it."
He is also a child of an official and can understand Zheng Lang's painstaking efforts.
Then he brought Zhao Tong in and looked at it. Zhao Tong looked at it with a strange look. He saw something, and his face suddenly changed! He said in surprise: "This is..."
"The object is just for some evil people to pretend to be a god."
"No wonder, no wonder..." As long as the magical power becomes pretending to be a ghost, everything will be clear. Zhao Tongzong said: "Zheng Zhizhou, how to deal with it? How to deal with it after the disaster?"
It is difficult to detect and the aftermath is even more difficult.
"I can't do it properly after the incident. Although I have reduced the aftermath caused by this incident, I have arranged it and deliberately invited a large number of people from Jiangning to help.
"It should be so," Taipingzhou has no way to hire people.
"Prime Minister Zhao Tong, don't worry, there will be a result in a few days, so when I come, I will let you keep the secret. Since you are here, let's talk about Huanghu. Take a look, if this place is opened, will anyone come to visit?"
“Yes.”
The fruits are just around this lake, carrying a few more rows of weeping willows, building a stone path, building some water pavilions and pavilions, carrying lotus roots in the lake, building a Jin Dynasty military camp site in Jimao Mountain, and renovating the tomb of Zhou Yu in the south. Then build the Dawei in the south. What will Wuhu look like?"
That is, the Thirteen Lianwei, which has drawn a picture, without a name, and is closely connected to Wuhu City, and Zhou Yu’s tomb is also in it.
"This method is good," Zhao Tongzong couldn't see it all, but he could see that if you don't talk about other big embankments, the Thirteenth Confession covers an area of nearly a thousand hectares. How many people can it accommodate? This is the base of people. Without the foundation of the local people, it is still difficult for a town to develop.
Once several large embankments are repaired, Taipingzhou will become a real home for fish and rice, and the power of Qingyishui and the Yangtze River can be exerted. With tourism, commerce, agriculture, and excellent ports, isn’t it a big port that has emerged?
Moreover, from Wuchang to Jiangning, there are no other major ports on this section of the Yangtze River. Wuhu Port appears, which just fills the vacuum.
After thinking about it, he said, "Okay, OK."
But in this way, I really got a big deal. Suddenly I remembered something and asked: "What should I do in Taipingzhou?"
"What Taipingzhou? Is Wuhu not Taipingzhou? There is a metaphor. The eldest son is very good. He passed the Jinshi exam, and the family loved his eldest son. But suddenly the second son made efforts and passed the top scorer. Shouldn't it be?"
Zhao Tong scratched his head and laughed
It cooled down in August, and it was raining, but it was not heavy. Zhao Tongzhang was moved by the beautiful prospects, and his laughter was cheerful through the thin rain curtain and spread far away.
Zheng Lang said again: "If it is properly repaired, Zhao Tong, look, if there are pavilions, pavilions, corridors and lotus roots here, and when it comes to this continuous rainy weather, the lake is covered with smoke, lotus roots are fragrant, weeping willows sway, and clear water sways on the shore, wouldn't it be very **?"
"Zheng Zhizhou, stop talking, I can't wait to say it."
Several people had fun together.
Zheng Lang pointed to the nearby and said, "This place is a scene. I will build a few houses along the street and build a restaurant to maintain the scenery and maintain the equipment in this garden. However, there must be many tourists. Zhao Tongzhang, are you interested in building a few houses here?"
I understand this.
In fact, if the outline is appropriate, this wasteland may become a prime location, including the prefectures. However, Zheng Lang did not remind that this example cannot be opened... Someone imitated it, but a bad example was made. There were also many smart people in the Song Dynasty, but they could not imagine it. I thought that in the future, how could that evil evil be eliminated?
Let it develop freely and give poor people a glimmer of hope.
If it develops, it will be enough to earn back the city tax, commercial tax, and buying, and even tea tax, salt tax and wine tax.
As Madam Wei stood aside and listened, her eyes shining.
Her mother's family is rich, and her husband's family is rich.
It may be true, or it may be false, but after hearing Zheng Lang's words, Zhao Tongzong didn't know whether he was moved or not. She was moved. She said goodbye to Shi Congguang, and the group braved the light rain and got on the boat again.
Sier complained on the boat: "Dalang, why don't my family participate?"
After realizing it, I only remember the prospects now and feel distressed.
"You, just have enough money. I have a lot of salary a year, plus my own income, don't the money be enough?"
But who thinks that money is too much? Sier is still unhappy.
"I am different from them. Zhao Tongzong is just a magistrate in the same place, but how many eyes do I have to stare at? Things are not done, and once I do it, there will be more people watching. In the past, I only entered the palace a few times, which was a hindrance to Fan Feng. Besides, in the future, I want to cause trouble, isn't it very easy? Can I still need this money?"
Sier tilted her head and thought for a while. The money was good. She came to Taipingzhou for two months and it was so painful to use it. Not only did Dalang use up his salary, but he also paid a lot of money from the money he brought. However, after thinking about it again, Dalang's career was more important, and he nodded reluctantly.
Huan'er also asked: "Zhuangsheng, why do you know so much?"
"Dalang is in the sky... Liu glanced at Zheng Lang. Dalang didn't like the sayings of stars in the sky, so Sier changed it. He said: "Gravel, gravel falling from the sky."
“…”
"Sister Sier is right. If the top scholar is gravel, it will be gravel in the sky."
"Don't talk nonsense," Are you praising me or cursing me? Is the gravel falling from the sky and burning through the atmosphere? Zheng Lang said again: "In the future, don't you want to be a big man, the top scholar, and call all officials."
Four wives and concubines are called four types of titles, official, Zheng Lang, Dalang, top scholar or doctor. When it comes to unification, the two maids dare not speak, but Sier is happy and pulls Zheng Lang's elbow tightly and leans against Zheng Lang.
"Get the piano."
"Here."
Looking at the misty river, Zheng Lang played a song "Spring Flower River Moon Night", but this quiet song burst out from his hands, and there was a kind of inexplicable sadness.
