The establishment of Zhili Road did not immediately change the scattered situation of the 18 prefectures in Zhili.

Or in a certain sense, the Zhili territory has had a non-confrontational relationship with each other since a long time ago.

In the Lianghuai area, salt, an important commodity, has created many giant businessmen who are as wealthy as the rest of the country. They appear to be the only ones in the business world.

The Suzhou and Hangzhou areas are full of famous families, and the prosperous handicraft industry has created a number of merchants who are famous for their exquisite skills, such as Suzhou embroidery, which can be called a monopoly industry. In addition, they like marriage, are keen on making friends, and are good at

Cultivate the children of the clan.

I feel that people outside Suzhou and Hangzhou are all from the countryside.

This is also one of the reasons why the imperial court has never wanted to bring the eighteen prefectures of Zhili together for a long time.

However, once the Zhili 18th Prefecture encountered external pressure, it would become closely united for various reasons.

Interest has become the driving force throughout.

With the establishment of the Governor's Office of Zhili and the official orders Zou Xueyu issued to the 18th Prefecture of Zhili at the beginning of his tenure, a commotion was immediately caused in the territory of Zhili.

The Governor's Yamen did not hide anything.

As for the contents of the three official documents, the governor's office also took the initiative to disseminate them to the people.

Today's Ming Dynasty is like a pan of oil, being burned by a fire. It seems to be prospering day by day, and its prosperity is approaching.

However, when Zou Xueyu, the governor-general of Zhili, signed the official document and sent it to the 18th House of Zhili, the hot oil pan of Ming Dynasty seemed to have been sprinkled with a bowl of cold water, and the pot immediately exploded.

There is no turmoil at the government level yet. No matter which government office it is, they follow the orders of the governor's office and publicize the latest policies.

Afterwards, the government offices in various places seemed to have closed their doors, silently watching the activities outside the government offices.

at first.

People thought this was a power struggle within the officialdom.

However, a few businessmen were dissatisfied with the new policy and angrily swore in public that they would never do business in Zhili Province again.

Just a few families cried out and claimed that the government was going to take away their fields.

The chaos was not big, it happened from time to time even in the past.

If we deal with it in the same way as in the past, it will just be the government stepping in to suppress it.

But this time, the entire Zhili Road became silent.

…

"Clang, clang, clang..."

"Bang bang bang..."

"Dong dong... dong dong dong..."

Zou Xueyu's ears were full of noise, and Yingtian Magistrate Yu Dalian followed him closely, followed by several officials from the Zhili Governor's Yamen.

A servant from the yamen trotted to Yu Dalian's side, covered his mouth with his hand and whispered a few times into the governor's ear, then cautiously stepped back.

Yu Dalian raised his head and looked at Zou Xueyu who was walking in front, and quickly followed him two steps.

"Dutai!"

"Dutai!"

Yu Dalian shouted loudly several times, but received no response.

He couldn't help but look around anxiously.

This is a private workshop outside Yingtian City.

The things they made were not artillery or supplies needed by the army, but just some agricultural tools.

Either a rake, a shovel, or a sickle.

It's really not worth seeing, and Yu Dalian doesn't understand why Master Dutai seems to have a special liking for this place.

But the news he just received made the prefect Yingtian a little uneasy.

He gritted his teeth, stepped forward quickly, and stopped in front of Zou Xueyu, who was watching with great interest.

"Dutai!"

Yu Dalian shouted in a heavy tone.

Zou Xueyu frowned slightly: "Why are you so uneasy?"

It has been some time since he took office as the Governor-General of Zhili Province, and Zou Xueyu has not done much during this time.

Except for the official document requirements issued by the No. 18 Prefecture of Zhili at the beginning, he almost always stayed in Yingtian Prefecture to inspect various workshops and farms outside the city.

No one knows why the Governor-General, who has taken the lead in seizing power in the 18th Zhili Mansion, is so calm, and no one knows what the Governor-General will do next.

Looking at Yu Dalian's appearance, Zou Xueyu had some suspicions in his heart.

According to time estimates, now is the time to see the response from the following prefectures and counties.

Yu Dalian took a deep breath and then said in a deep voice: "The merchants under Zhili are withdrawing from the counties under Zhili, and those with land have also begun to besiege local government offices to ask for explanations. There are also some soldiers who were killed and disabled in the Northern Expedition.

My home was attacked by unknown persons at night.”

"presumptuous!"

As Yu Dalian explained, Zou Xueyu's expression remained unchanged.

It wasn't until Yu Dalian revealed that there were unidentified people harassing the homes of the soldiers killed and disabled in the Northern Expedition at night.

Zou Xueyu was really angry.

With a gloomy face, he shouted coldly again: "Bold!"

Yu Dalian immediately clasped his hands into his fists, took two steps back and bent down, frightened.

The subordinate officers who followed the governor's office to inspect the governor's Yamen also stopped one after another, nodded and looked down at their toes.

Zou Dutai has Shang Fang's sword in his hand. He will kill first and then show off. No one dares to offend him.

Everyone had begun to silently pray for the group of people who had offended Zou Dutai.

I'm afraid that next, someone will be pulled out by the governor to establish his authority.

The people from the surrounding Zhuangzi who were busy in the workshop also stopped their work because of Zou Xueyu's two consecutive roars.

The boss, who was hanging far away, got angry when he saw the supervisor.

He immediately bent over and stepped forward to his own workers, preparing to drive them out.

Zou Xueyu coughed lightly and raised his hand: "You guys continue to work, I've pretty much figured it out. If there's anything I don't understand when I look back, I hope my master can give me some pointers."

Give advice to Lord Dutai, who is in charge of Zhili?

The boss, who was also a farmer, trembled all over and hurried forward with a smile on his face.

"The governor's words are serious. If the governor had not been appointed as the magistrate of Yingtian, where would the villain be today? Whatever the governor wants the villain to do, the villain will do it. He will never delay the governor for even an hour."

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! This is the reverence that ordinary people have for the government.

Awe is a good thing, but if it turns into fear, it is a bad thing.

Zou Xueyu thought, so he nodded casually and waved his hand: "I've delayed your stay today, I'll leave first."

After saying that, Zou Xueyu took the lead to walk out of the workshop.

The owner of the workshop naturally followed from a distance and carefully sent the gang of yamen out of the workshop gate.

Looking at the backs of Zou Xueyu and others walking towards the official road from a distance.

The owner of the workshop couldn't help but show a bit of annoyance on his face.

"I don't know which damn things actually made Dutai angry. They are all bitches who forget their mother when they are full!"

After scolding a few words, the workshop owner felt that he couldn't do much to help, so he could only kick the dirt under his feet in annoyance.

Then he muttered silently and cursed the bullshit that he didn't know about, hoping that the governor, who would make his family and the people in the surrounding Zhuangzi live a good life, would severely punish those bullies as soon as possible.

Already.

On the official road.

Zou Xueyu's complexion has returned to its original state, but Yu Dalian and others are still cautious.

Lord Dutai seems to be considering the situation currently facing the Zhili Governor's Yamen.

Yu Dalian, the magistrate of Yingtian, who felt that he was the number one follower under Lord Dutai, followed closely behind Zou Xueyu.

After Yu Dalian thought for a long time, he spoke in a low voice: "Governor, if this matter is not handled well, let alone the opinion of the court on the Governor's Yamen. It is also local. Because the merchants leave, there will inevitably be consequences.

There is a shortage of various commodities needed by the people, which leads to resentment among the people."

Zou Xueyu stopped and turned around.

Yu Dalian, who was still thinking about how to deal with the current situation if he were Lord Dutai, almost threw himself into Zou Xueyu's arms without paying attention.

Yu Dalian stopped in embarrassment, moved to one side, but stared at Zou Xueyu in confusion.

In Zou Xueyu's sight.
