On the second day, Zhao Youde, the head of the Zhao family, came to the Governor's Yamen early in the morning.
After Li Min arrived, he was led to Li Min by Lin Jie.
Zhao Youde hurriedly paid his respects: "Zhao Youde, a common man, pays his respects to the Governor."
Li Min said pleasantly: "Master Zhao, please get up quickly. I have come to see you because I have something important to discuss with you."
"Well, you must have heard that the villagers in Xiaohe Village suffer from big neck disease. If you want to cure big neck disease, you need to eat more kelp. And we in Yizhou are not close to the sea at all. This kelp
, basically none on the market.”
"I heard that your Zhao family has business relations with Lingnan Road, and Lingnan Road is close to the sea, so there must be kelp wherever you go. Therefore, I want to let your Zhao family introduce more kelp from Lingnan Road. Of course, I don't want to
It will make you suffer, and you will be given certain subsidies. I wonder what the Zhao family will do?"
After listening to Li Min's words, Zhao Youde immediately said: "Grand Governor, it is said that saving one life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. It can save the lives of the villagers in Xiaohe Village, let alone the Grand Governor giving subsidies to the poor people. Even if not, our Zhao family can't
You will not save me until you die!"
Hearing Zhao Youde's words, Li Min couldn't help but smile on his face.
As long as the Zhao family is willing to help, the big neck disease among the villagers in Xiaohe Village will not be a big problem.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Youde continued to say: "However, the Governor does not know that although Lingnan Road is honorably under the jurisdiction of Datang, Lingnan Road is relatively deserted and the local indigenous people are not educated. Our Zhao family has business dealings with them.
, and suffered heavy losses because of their lack of credibility.”
"These natives are extremely cunning. Not only do they manipulate the goods, but in many cases, they also seek money and kill people. We have repeatedly suffered losses in our business dealings with them. Therefore, we no longer do business in Lingnan Road."
Um?
Hearing Zhao Youde's words, Li Min's face couldn't help but turn cold.
This Zhao family is openly going against this Governor!
Li Min took a deep breath and asked again: "Master Zhao, now, only your Zhao family is the most familiar with the situation on Lingnan Road. This governor can allocate one hundred soldiers to you to protect the road and give you a certain amount of financial compensation. I don't know.
Can your Zhao family reopen the business with Lingnan Road and buy a batch of kelp?"
Zhao Youde shook his head guiltily and said: "Grand Governor, it's not that the common people are unwilling, but the tribesmen doing business with Lingnan Road, because of the heavy casualties. No one is willing to go to Lingnan Road now, so there is nothing the common people can do!"
Hearing Zhao Youde's words, Li Min couldn't help but look at the Zhao family master meaningfully and said: "In this case, the governor will not force the Zhao family master! Come and see off the guests!"
After sending Zhao Youde away, Li Min's face darkened.
It seemed that people from these aristocratic families did not pay attention to him as the governor at all.
On the surface, he was respectful to him, but when carrying out various tasks, he was not cooperative at all.
Li Min felt more and more that if he could not win over Lin Jue, the governor, and subdue the four great families in Yizhou, then it would be impossible for him to successfully develop Yizhou.
These aristocratic families have seriously hindered his development plan.
Next, Li Min found Shangguan Yi, and then ordered Shangguan Yi to contact the local merchants to see if anyone was doing business with Lingnan Road and whether he could bring back a batch of sea food as soon as possible.
Now, the biggest disadvantage for Li Min is that he does not have the support of local forces.
The situation in Yizhou is like a blind man trying to grasp an elephant, with no way to control it.
The most important thing at the moment is to recruit some talented people or aristocratic families who can work for them in Yizhou.
…
Two days later, Shangguan Yi came to report to Li Min that some local merchants shook their heads when they heard that they were going to Lingnan Road.
No matter how high the price Shangguan Yi offered, no one would go.
No need to ask, there must be someone from the Zhao family causing trouble here.
It seems that purchasing kelp will not be possible in a short time.
The villagers of Xiaohe Village must receive treatment as soon as possible.
Finally, out of desperation, Li Min had no choice but to buy a batch of iodized salt from the mall.
Then Xue Rengui was ordered to send people to Xiaohe Village and strictly ordered them not to spread the news.
Regular consumption of iodized salt can naturally supplement iodine and has a good therapeutic effect on large neck disease.
But this time, Li Min wanted to treat a disease, not sell it to outsiders, so the price of the system was still within the range he could accept.
But even so, it also cost Li Min a lot of money.
This debt was all placed on the Zhao family by Li Min.
In the days that followed, everyone in the governor's office treated the newly appointed governor with great respect.
But no one came to report to him, and no one came to ask him for instructions on various matters in the governor's office.
And when Li Min went to inspect various yamen, they appeared to be respectful.
However, Li Min's instructions were all violated.
For Li Min, who had no foundation at all, there was no good solution for them.
Not surprisingly, Li Min was completely ignored by Yizhou officials.
This situation also caused Li Min to break the rules and rarely go to the governor's Yamen.
He spent the whole day either drinking and listening to music, or taking a group of subordinates to hunt birds and hunt around Yizhou, having a great time.
Seeing that this great governor, who was rumored to be a god, was collectively rejected by Yizhou officials and did nothing.
All the officials in Yizhou had great contempt for the governor, thinking that he was nothing more than an embroidered pillow and a piece of straw.
Only the governor Lin Jie, his three subordinates Dong Bosen, the chief official Chu Xiaotian and Sima Hu Jun still did not dare to take the governor lightly.
…
On this day, Li Min took Xue Rengui and other attendants to play in Baihuatan.
In later generations, Baihuatan was fully developed and became a famous tourist attraction in Yizhou.
But now, Baihuatan is still in its original state and has not been developed or utilized.
However, the scenery here is beautiful and the flowers are in full bloom.
Outside Baihuatan, there is a beach.
If the scale of Baihuatan can be further expanded and some infrastructure construction can be introduced, Baihuatan will surely be built into a famous tourist attraction.
At this time, it was the perfect time for the grass to grow and the orioles to fly, and there was an endless stream of young men and women coming to enjoy the spring outing.
And Li Min's gorgeous service, handsome appearance, luxurious temperament, and the guards surrounding him.
Like fireflies in the dark night, so dazzling and unique.
This also made the young men and women outing next to them couldn't help but look at this side a few more times.
Especially those young women, their hearts are beating wildly.
