Among the four squadron commanders, only Sha Dong can be regarded as the one whom County Magistrate Li relies on most. Generally, the first thing that comes to mind for major tasks is to let Sha Dong do it.
After all, Sha Dong's performance in bringing warmth to the people of Yancheng was nothing short of amazing.
The ability to withstand pressure, execution ability, and professional ability are among the apprentices and workers led by County Magistrate Li, and they have the highest understanding and toughness among them.
It's just that Sha Dong lacks a bit of "dominance". If Sha Dong and Shah combine... then Li Jie can die.
"That's good."
I said goodbye to Shanan and let this kid do the trouble. Young people should be given more opportunities.
With the ax lent to her by Li Jie, Shanan's confidence greatly increased, and she directly issued a banner: Warmly welcome the young master to come for guidance.
Slogans must be publicized, and publicity must be diligent. Walking through the streets and alleys is a must. Going deep into the masses and going to the masses is also a necessary quality for a propaganda worker.
The propaganda work in the cities is over, and the propaganda work in the vast rural areas has just begun.
Then Shanan ran to the countryside and asked the villagers of the small Huaiyi tribe: Why don't you welcome Mr. Si?
The villagers dared not speak out in anger, thinking that they did not know who the young master was, and no one told them to welcome him.
Shanan's appearance, which was already a bit melancholy, became even more melancholy.
It wasn't until the animals of the villagers who dared to be angry but dared not speak were moved away that the melancholy little eyes were filled with happiness.
The Huaiyi villagers who can watch their family property being plundered without resisting are extremely intelligent.
There was also a Huaiyi brother who was so angry that he picked up a stick and started to resist, and then nothing happened.
According to the national "turtle butt", the ancestors of the Wu people tattooed themselves with "loyalty to serve the country", and then the villagers who resisted had "loyalty to serve the country 9526" and "loyalty to serve the country 9527" tattooed on their arms...
The requirements for serving the country with loyalty are very low. You don't need to kill enemies and open up frontiers. You just need to work hard.
Moreover, Shanan said, we in Jiangyin City give preferential treatment to our employees. As long as you work overtime and complete the project at hand, you will be allowed to go back, and you will also be given a settlement allowance, living expenses, and travel expenses.
In a word: working hard and working overtime means serving the country with loyalty. If you don’t get overtime pay, it is even more loyalty and serving the country, and you will definitely be rewarded with blessings.
Good people are rewarded.
County Magistrate Li thought about Shanan's melancholy appearance. She looked good, but she did something immoral... She had no right to give birth to a son.
Originally, County Magistrate Li thought that if there was retribution, he might be unlucky. But now that he is fine, so many younger brothers will suffer retribution together, and how much good fortune will be shared among them.
The work of welcoming Young Master Si south of the Huaihe River is proceeding in an orderly manner, and County Magistrate Li does not care about the outcome. Being able to train Shanan is the biggest gain.
Of course, if you can't practice it, it doesn't matter, Lang Mie may be rare, ruthless people are everywhere.
Without Shanan, he, Mr. Li, would not be without food. From hundreds of thousands of savages, more than a dozen useful ones could be cultivated out of ten thousand.
What has concerned County Magistrate Li recently is that iron ore mining has encountered some problems.
Previously, some members of the clan died because of Jia Ren, and the property was confiscated by the old monster. So the whole family, young and old, moved to Tangyi to "live on".
Because I have a little friendship with Mr. Jia, regardless of whether Mr. Li recognizes him or not, the two doctors Jia helped him speak in the royal city.
Do you want to express your gratitude?
So County Magistrate Li thought that there were copper-iron mines and coal mines near Tangyi, whether in the south or the north of the Yangtze River. He discussed with Mr. Jia and said that we in Yinxiang like to use stones for construction, and the stones in Tangyi are very good.
Okay, let’s have a shot?
Jia Ren was not that easy to deceive. When he saw that the bastard named Li was actually eyeing Tangyi, he wondered if there were any benefits to this?
But the bastard named Li had arranged hundreds of boats in advance for transportation and fishing. Even if Jia Ren wanted to do something, he could only stare.
He sighed and had no choice but to help Li solve the encirclement of the land.
With a casual glance, he found a huge piece of land, including the fiefdom of Young Master Zhu. However, Young Master Zhu was imprisoned by the old monster, and his fate after being imprisoned could be one of two ways.
First, the young master Zhu died together with the old monster. After all, fighting with brothers, father and son fighting in battle, and fighting with people in the underworld, brothers are still reliable.
Second, the young master Zhu continues to survive until his eldest nephew takes over. If the eldest nephew gives him an "amnesty", hey, if he grits his teeth like this, won't he survive?
As for the current territory being randomly divided up by the Jia family and the Li family, that is not a problem.
As a member of the royal family, it is good to live.
What kind of bike do you want?!
County Magistrate Li asked Jia's people to help open the mountain. After the "three connections and one leveling" were completed in the early stage, it would be connected directly to the river.
There were natural rivers in that damn place, but because the mountainous area was barren, no one had ever lived there.
In the early days, there was a small tribe of "Nanchao Clan" running around. Later, because of the fierce conflict between Wu and Chu, it directly became a front line. It was normal for two elephants to fight and several cats and dogs to die.
After the small tribe of the "Nanchao clan" perished, the remaining bits and pieces moved with the main force into the mountainous areas further south.
Jiangyin City organized slave labor and started trial operation of mining not long ago. Now it has encountered a problem, whether it is iron ore or coal mine, it is a bit urgent.
"You dug out the hot springs?"
"Um."
"Why is there a hot spring in this damn place?"
County Magistrate Li was confused. Why is there a hot spring at the mouth of the Yangtze River?
But suddenly County Magistrate Li remembered what happened when he was a foreman. It's not that there are no hot springs, but the ones that are generally popular are hot springs in bathing centers.
Natural hot springs, etc., seem to have not been operated much.
However, when County Magistrate Li was still Foreman Li, he once led a plastering team and had a construction site that was really a hot spring villa.
The mountain view villa complex is quite a big deal.
If he hadn't "cracked down on gangsters and eliminated evil" later, there was a high probability that he would have received the project funds.
But in the end he didn't get it. The contractor gave him the quarried marble and some natural sulfur that was not of high purity.
"Yes, there should be a hot spring."
County Magistrate Li's eyes lit up, "I can build a hot spring resort in that fucking place in the future."
However, after thinking about it carefully, I found that there was really no pursuit in doing so, and it seemed too low, so County Magistrate Li had a very sacred look on his face: "If we build a hot spring villa, we can also build a Xianlin University Town nearby. Education is still very important.
"
This time, the person in charge of mining the ore was my brother-in-law Sha Diao. Sha Diao has been very depressed recently. He has learned to rely on connections instead of talent, but his luck is a bit bad.
I just took over a big job, and after only a few days of digging, water actually came out of the rocks...
The water is quite hot.
"Brother Kun, what should we do now?"
The depressed sand sculpture didn't know what to do next. County Magistrate Li was very happy. The total amount of natural sulfur in this damn place is not high, but it is much easier than refining sulfur from iron ore.
.
It's a good thing if it hits the right note.
For other animals, the problem with gunpowder is nitrate, but for the animals who graduated from the Textile College, nitrate is not a problem. For example, when their principal was young, he used the soil pile method to solve the nitrate. It sounds very scientific, but in reality
There are naughty children peeing and playing in the mud.
A meaning.
"What should I do? Oh, this is a good thing. Digging the earth and finding a sweet spring is a way to make a fortune."
"Get rich?"
Sha Diao looked confused. He didn't understand what his brother-in-law meant at all.
The ore dug previously has been turned into weapons and equipment for dry whales.
What does this mean? It means these ores are good.
Now that the good stuff is suddenly out of stock, it’s heart-burning.
However, County Magistrate Li was very calm and said to Sha Diao: "It used to be quite troublesome to make sulfur. Now it's better. Many things have been solved. We can also speed up the construction of the irrigation canal in Jiangbei. Blast it all the way. With the power of the Dragon God,
Go against heaven and change your destiny."
At this time, there were quite a lot of acres of cultivated land in the wasteland north of the Yangtze River. However, there was a problem. Once you entered an area with less dense rivers, there would be serious land hardening. Even east of Zhiyi, there were a lot of saline-alkali land, and the land was basically
Unable to produce food.
Without sufficient technical means and organizational strength, the land cannot be improved.
For example, the farmland near Yancheng was "laundered" by Yiyang Jun at the risk of his life. Behind this, it was also possible to achieve this with the financial, material and human support of the Wu State.
But even so, there is still not much high-quality farmland in Yancheng.
But for County Magistrate Li, this is not a big problem. Others have trouble washing their land because it is too difficult to dig trenches and canals to divert water.
Either the soil is hardened or the swamps are endless.
Even the current hegemonic powers don't have much energy to spend on this.
But County Magistrate Li is different. He is afraid that the rough soil will harden and be blown up all the way.
After the land was loosened by blasting, canals were dug directly on the spot.
The excavated soil is then transported to the swamp for landfill, mixed with silt, human and animal excrement, and humus, and a wave of vegetables such as celery and water chestnuts can be produced that year.
If you are more courageous, it is not impossible to force yourself into the rice field, but there is a high probability that you will not gain anything.
It is quite troublesome to use the "Power of the Dragon God" in Jiangnan, and it can easily attract the attention of interested people.
Although County Magistrate Li is quite good at hiding things, the protection is incomplete.
But it's different in Jiangbei. Anyway, County Magistrate Li has traveled to many places in Jiangbei and has never met a few ordinary people from the Wangji area of Gusu.
They are all official figures involved in important matters.
There are also those foreigners who come to Wu to serve as officials. Most of them stay in their own one-third of an acre of land and never go out.
For example, take Yingxian Shi of Huai County. When there was such a big commotion in Yancheng, he still stayed in Huai County making skewers every day. After Yancheng was settled, he still stayed in Huai County making skewers every day.
So, indiscriminate bombing in Jiangbei, hot and spicy attacks... is actually similar to fish frying in deep mountain reservoirs.
There was a lot of noise and no one came to check.
"Brother Kun, then...what should we do next?"
"Diao, I have a very important task to give you now, are you confident?"
"have!"
"Okay, I will leave it to you to open up one million acres of cultivated land in Jiangbei. I can rest assured that you will do the work."
"..."
"Just kidding, don't be so nervous. The king is still alive, so he can't do one million acres. It's a bit too crazy to say that, let's say one hundred thousand acres."
"..."
In the end, the sand sculpture left. He had to go to the mine to take out some of the slave workers, reorganize them, and then go to the Jiangbei area.
As for whether one million acres or one hundred thousand acres of cultivated land, he didn't dare to think about it, it was too far away.
Sha Diao set a small goal for himself first, for example, to open 10,000 acres of land.
