This kind of thing is really not an opponent for Chen Kai. With his current weight, his opponents are Ru Shang Kexi, a figure like Geng Jimao who dominates one side, and even if he counts down, he is like Huang Yingjie, Hao

Things like Shang Jiu, Zhang Daocheng and others are just a few disgusting bugs at most, not even toads. But the occurrence of this incident really gave him a wake-up call.

Not long after learning the situation from Chen Song, colleagues rushed over and kept claiming the death penalty. Speaking of which, after all, this made Chaozhou City smelly and made people resentful. It was definitely not

What a small thing.

"Those bastards tried to trick you, and it's good that you stick to your principles. But the problem is that your method is wrong, and that's why you're like this today."

Manure is considered filth, and it is normal business behavior for merchants to hire workers, collect it, and sell it. But the problem now is that the technology of piling manure to accumulate nitrate is about to be used in Chaozhou City, and the manure has changed from being used to fertilize fields.

Necessary raw materials for military manufacturing.

If the government wants to control these raw materials, it will inevitably infringe on the interests of merchants. In this regard, the Chaozhou government's plan is to allocate shops to these merchants and let them change their careers. This method is not uncommon even in later generations.

However, the merchants were dissatisfied and wanted to take advantage of Chen Kai's absence to lure local officials and turn the excrement trading into a business for officials and merchants to share the wealth. In one sentence, it was necessary to use whims and whims.

"What the general system says is that the lower officials mishandled the situation."

Tongzhi stayed up for several days and did not relent, because he knew very well that even if he relented, it would not be possible given Chen Kai's temperament, and even he might be punished. In this case, he would

They could only order the government officials to pursue him, but there was still no progress. At this moment, even Chen Kai came back.

"The catching team of Haiyang County Government was dragged to clean up the excrement. The reason is well known to them. In addition, the government officials were asked to gather all the employees who collected feces and set up a cleaning team in Haiyang County Government. They would still do the previous collection.

The work of feces shall be managed by personnel assigned by the county government.”

Of course Tongzhi understands what Chen Kai means. This is a work task, but it is also a source of gray income. Naturally, this gray income must be provided to ensure the demand for manure and nitrate accumulation sites.

After receiving the order, Tongzhi hurried back to the government office. After giving a lecture, the government officials on the arresting team were beaten and left in a hurry. As a result, before noon the next day, all the feces merchants were gone.

They were arrested. Almost at the same time, all the employees who collected feces were gathered into the county government office. The county magistrate immediately announced that they would be added to the ranks of government officials. A middle-aged man who was promoted from a Hou Que to a team leader but never had a chance.

The Yamen are responsible for management.

The government eliminated the base of feces merchants in terms of personnel, and the county government gained an additional source of income. The arrest team they had bribed before naturally turned their backs and became ruthless in the face of Chen Kai's pressure and future interests.

Next, the Haiyang County Government convened the gentry and common people to hear the case in public. The Guan Shi merchant was charged with "obstructing official business", "resisting government administration", "undermining order in the city" and many other related crimes. Not only must he be punished

, and even confiscated the family property to treat the patients. As a result, the gentry and common people in the city who were affected by the stench were very happy and shouted that the Haiyang County Magistrate was the Qingtian Grand Master.

Criticize the people's hearts and minds.

After the verdict was pronounced and the prisoners were imprisoned, the county magistrate immediately announced that the Yamen's cleaning team would begin operations early tomorrow morning, striving to restore a clean and tidy world to Chaozhou Prefecture within three days.

The officials, government servants, hired workers and the majority of the people in the city are all satisfied, even the dung and saltpeter fields. The only ones who suffer are the dung merchants. In addition, there may be consequences for this in the future.

A greater impact, but it is not the most important at this moment, because Chen Kai's top priority is to expand gunpowder production, not anything else.

The yamen officials were motivated, and things were done very efficiently. The stench of Chaozhou City was quickly dissipated, and the county yamen generously provided money to the Huimin Pharmacy, which restored its former glory.

In the city, after all this hard work, the government has achieved a lot of achievements, and the people are happy and excited. At this time, Chen Kai didn't even sit down in the city and started to set off again, and this time the destination was not far away.

It's on Nan'ao Island.

Going down the river, the official ship Chen Kai was on arrived at Nan'ao Island very quickly. The ship docked slowly, and as soon as the trestle was set up, Chen Kai got off the ship in three steps and two steps at a time. There were already people on the dock.

While waiting, Chen Kai walked and talked with the man. He immediately boarded the carriage and the two of them rode in the same carriage. The carriage took them to the Affiliated School of the Ordnance Bureau.

That compound was temporarily abandoned as Chen Kai moved the teachers and students to Chaozhou Fucheng. It lasted for several months, and it was only recently that it was reorganized. At the moment, there are twenty-four people speaking with Jiangxi accents.

The scholar is waiting here.

Even if Chen Kai asked Zheng Chenggong to use the Zheng family's connections in northern Fujian, he could avoid the Qing army checkpoints all the way, but it was inevitable to take a detour. After entering the sea, the journey was too fast, but the boat was rocking so hard at sea.

It’s a shame to say that most people have still not fully recovered until they have been on the island for two or three days.

Especially so, they are still waiting here without exception. It is not out of official rules and face, but because what they are waiting for at this moment is the one they once followed, the man who is both civil and military in the governor's mouth.

A capable official is a legendary civil servant who can serve as an advisor, an able official, a commander, and even personally lead an army to fight to the death with his own strength. Being able to learn from such a person is also the greatest achievement of their trip.

the goal of.

"Marquis Weiyuan has summoned the generals to join the army. The General Administration of Eastern Guangdong, the Chief Envoy of Guangdong will participate in politics, and Mr. Chen, the governor of Chaohui Branch and the governor of Chaozhou Prefecture, is here!"

Entering the classroom, where the sound of reading was once heard, the Jiangxi scholars stood up one after another and bowed their hands to Chen Kai. These people were all famous, and they could not kneel when they were in office. Chen Kai

I understand that I just said "please get up". At this moment, everywhere I can see, there are mature and steady middle-aged people, and there are also high-spirited young people, but no matter what age they are, the people in their eyes are

The reverence and desire are all obvious.

"People's hearts can be used."

Nodding secretly, Chen Kai motioned for everyone to take a seat, and immediately asked everyone to introduce themselves. What he heard was nothing more than the year in which he started studying, the boy's examination in which year, the scholar in which year, and so on.

When asked which year he started to follow Jie Chongxi and others to fight against the Qing Dynasty, Chen Kai always nodded his head as encouragement.

After the introductions were completed, Chen Kai also introduced himself, telling the story of his journey from the south of Shanxi to the King's Army, and what he had done over the years. The legends made everyone excited.

.

Seeing that the atmosphere was enough, Chen Kai said loudly: "Everyone, you have traveled thousands of miles to come to Nan'ao Island to listen to these old stories of me, Chen Kai. I think it is not for curiosity or to increase the conversation, but to
