After the meeting, Song Yang still had classes today, so he handed over the matter of accompanying the Ezhou delegation to Fang Zhe and Yu Ming.
Taking the Ezhou inspection team around various areas of the new city, Fang Zhe and Yu Ming felt proud.
“Jiangzhou New City is being built so quickly!”
"The school has been restored! The prince actually teaches in person! He really values education!"
“The functional areas of the city are clearly divided, and all kinds of workshops are complete!”
"The people live and work in peace and contentment, and have no worries about food and clothing. The prince and Lord Jiangzhou are really capable!"
"The navy in Jiangzhou is so powerful! I only heard that there are three warships in Jiangzhou, but it turns out that only half of them went to Ezhou!"
"Look at the awe-inspiring training of the Renaissance Army. They are indeed elite soldiers!"
"No wonder the prince was able to fight across the river and easily defeat tens of thousands of bandits!"
The Ezhou team's shock never stopped from beginning to end.
Fang Zhe and Yu Ming sounded extremely confident.
"Hey? Why is there a group of Renaissance troops here?"
Walking to the vicinity of the isolation camp and looking at the Renaissance Army training in the open space in front of them, Xue Jing and others sighed.
"These are the Fengzhou Renaissance Army. The prince organized them."
"They will go to Fengzhou in a while."
Yu Ming explained.
"Fengzhou?" Xue Jing and others were surprised again.
This shows that Song Yang's hand has reached out to Fengzhou. It seems that it will not be long before Jiangbei, the capital of all states and counties in the south of the Yangtze River, will be included in the sphere of influence of the King of Jiangzhou.
"Lao Fang, Lao Yu, who are these people?"
At this time, Song Chengwang came over.
Today is Song Yang's nature class, so it's his day off.
As for Song Yang, he is his Uncle Wang, and this boy is always with him carefully.
But for Fang Zhe and Yu Ming, he doesn't have to pretend to be a grandson.
Of course, he didn't dare to take it seriously. He just treated it as a friend and an equal.
"Hui Shizi, these are adults from Ezhou." Fang Zhe replied.
"Prince?" Xue Jing and others were stunned again.
How old is Song Yang? He is less than twenty, how can he create a 12- or 13-year-old prince...
"My lords, this is the Crown Prince of Fengzhou." Fang Zhe saw their strange expressions and explained hurriedly.
"Uh, Crown Prince Fengzhou. Hello Crown Prince! Hello Crown Prince!"
Everyone greeted each other again.
The appearance of Song Chengwang let them know that it was the prince of Fengzhou who had defected to the king of Jiangzhou.
No wonder Jiangzhou's power expanded so quickly.
So Fengzhou and Ezhou were both won.
Is Yuezhou still far away in the middle?
I heard from the refugees in Yuezhou that the prince of Yuezhou died, and now the person in charge of Yuezhou is Miao Ji, the prefect of Yuezhou.
Without the royal family, it would be easy to conquer Yuezhou.
For a time, all Ezhou officials felt more wise in their choice to seek refuge with Song Yang.
After some investigation, Ezhou officials further returned home.
Finally, Fang Zhe took everyone back to his office and held another tea party.
This time Song Yang was not present, so everyone was less formal.
Speech and communication are also more casual.
Fang Zhe taught them Jiangzhou experience, and Yu Ming told them the essentials of military training.
In the end, the Ezhou team expressed that they would unite within the sphere of influence headed by Song Yang to do a good job in the revitalization and reconstruction of Ezhou...
"Master Fang, you just mentioned craftsmen, I have some there."
After the meeting was over and it was time to have some communication, Tongcheng County Magistrate Zhang Gaoyuan found Fang Zhe.
Just now, Fang Zhe said that Jiangzhou needs a large number of craftsmen, and if there are wealthy people from various places, they can send some over.
So Zhang Gaoyuan found Fang Zhe.
He didn't mention it at the meeting just now, he just wanted to talk in private and get closer to Fang Zhe.
Since you have taken refuge in Song Yang, you must know that Fang Zhe will definitely be a very important figure in the future.
These people are very insightful.
"How many? Is there a blacksmith?"
As soon as he heard about the craftsmen, Fang Zhe immediately became interested.
Song Yang's chicken is in need of people.
"Twenty people can always get rich. Most of them are carpenters, stonemasons, and bricklayers, but there are no blacksmiths..." Zhang Gaoyuan said sheepishly.
"Well, so many craftsmen can help the prince solve many problems." Fang Zhe nodded.
What is most lacking in this era is blacksmiths.
It is forbidden for private people to open iron mines in Daqian, and blacksmiths in various places are registered with the government.
The iron ingots they use are also priced and rationed by the government.
Therefore, the number of blacksmiths was already very few, let alone a major disaster.
But at least there were more than twenty other craftsmen, and Fang Zhe also smiled and thanked Zhang Gaoyuan for his kindness.
As soon as Zhang Gaoyuan left, Xue Li came again and said arrogantly that he also had craftsmen there.
Fang Zhe thought to himself: "How come you people are such thieves? If there are craftsmen, you don't take it out earlier. You have to come over and sell it..."
Of course, I still asked with a smile on the surface.
There were two blacksmiths in Tongshan, and both of them, Xue Li, wanted to come to Jiangzhou, but Fang Zhe shook his head and refused.
There must be something left for them. The city needs to be rebuilt, and it would be better to make things for one's own use.
We discussed it for a while, and it was almost dinner time.
Fang Zhe invited everyone to eat in the cafeteria.
The so-called canteen is a large stove for preparing meals for the Renaissance Army.
Fang Zhe eats and drinks here every day.
Not to mention, this Dazao is really the best place to eat in the entire Fucheng.
After all, the training of the Renaissance Army is very intensive, so they can eat some meat and eggs every now and then.
Several adults in Ezhou were also very satisfied with this simple meal.
Their local food is not as good as Jiangzhou City, especially Puqi and Tongshan. In these two places, you can only drink thick porridge every day.
Even for the two county magistrates, the food was not much better.
Looking at Zhang Gaoyuan and Zhou Kun devouring their food, Fang Zhe smiled and said: "Eat slowly, unlimited supply."
"My lords, as the prince said, this year is the most difficult."
"As long as we persist until the autumn harvest, everything will be fine."
"My lords, you have to take care of the supplies and food for each county on your own."
"There are a lot of ruins in the surrounding prefectures and counties. We can always produce some food. Don't stick to your own place."
Fang Zhe's words were to urge everyone to go out, which Wang Ran had already told them.
Jiayu, Ezhou, and Huangshi along the river have each carried out exploration to the north of the Yangtze River, which can more or less solve some supply problems.
However, transportation in Tongcheng and Puqi is inconvenient, and the situation has just stabilized, so it will take some time to get out.
However, with Fang Zhe and Wang Ran's suggestions, they had already planned to focus on organizing Minzhuang to expand the search scope when they returned.
After dinner, the Ezhou delegation visited the livestock breeding base and hydraulic workshop in the afternoon.
The group of people admired Song Yang's improved mower and asked Fang Zhe for the drawings of the mower and hydraulic machinery.
Fang Zhe is promoting hydraulic machinery in various counties in Jiangzhou these days, and he originally planned to send some drawings to Wang Ran in a few days.
This time they came by themselves, just giving them a share.
Finally, they took a look at the agricultural production work around Jiangzhou Fucheng and gave high praise to the field protection team.
By this time, the Ezhou inspection team had seen all the workers, peasants, military and political affairs in Jiangzhou.
In addition to envy and emotion, it also made everyone want to compete.
All the adults have secretly made up their minds to develop their own territories like Jiangzhou after returning home.
