This is also the reason why Chen Huaixiu is anxious to go back, how can the leader of the Shachuan Gang not show up at such a critical time?

"It's good, morale is available." Zhao Hao sat on the pillow, eating the oranges peeled by Gang Master Chen, and asked again, "Has Pan Zhongcheng been there?" ”

"I'm looking at the terrain on the island." Chen Huaixiu said: "Chairman Yu accompanied his old man, saying that the drawings would be issued in a few days." ”

"Well, the sun is still reliable." Zhao Hao said reassuringly: "Xue Ying's side, I have already helped Chongkaisi recruit enough workers, this year's year is not good, and the people in Jiangnan are having a hard time, which is good news for Chongming." ”

"Yes, if it weren't for the fact that it was difficult to mix outside, so many people wouldn't have come back." Chen Huaixiu nodded approvingly.

"Then the seawall will officially start construction this month." Zhao Hao said again: "We still have to pay attention, we can't let the county affect the progress of the sea pond, otherwise it will not be completed before the peach blossom flood next year, and it will be a big trouble." ”

"Childe, rest assured, under the leadership of Jin Xianzun, there will be no delay." Chen Huaixiu was impressed by Jin Xuezeng and said:

"This old parent is really amazing, and now the whole county is very convinced."

"That's nature." Zhao Gongzi smiled proudly, Jin Xue was a typical example of giving a little sunshine. I didn't do anything before, and it was really difficult for a smart woman to cook without rice.

His subordinates have no money, no land, and no one, no matter how great his ability is, he can't show it.

Zhao Hao's trip to Chongming made all the problems easily solved. Jin Xuezeng can finally let go of his hands and feet.

Originally, Zhao Hao only asked him to choose a site for the county seat, but Jin Xuezeng did not wait or rely on it, and after choosing the location of the future county seat, he persuaded Yu Shensi and Chen Huaixiu to build the earthen city wall in advance. In this way, when the masonry is in place in the future, the earthen wall can be wrapped with city bricks.

His reasoning is simple: for a place with a severe population loss, there is no better way to change the decline than to build a county seat.

If there is no city that can shelter the people of the whole county, there is no way to give the people a sense of security, and it will be difficult to recall the lost population. It was also unable to attract hired workers and displaced people recruited from other places to settle on Chongming Island, and missed the great opportunity to restore Chongming's prosperity.

Moreover, the vast majority of county towns are also this kind of construction method with the earth wall as the inner core and the outer bricks of the city. It's just that Jin Xue once split these two steps - after all, the earthen city wall is also a city wall, which can also give the people a sense of security...... Just wrap the bricks before the rainy season next year.

The people understood these truths, but they still had many concerns.

There is no other reason, and the common people have been scared. The county has collapsed three times in thirty years, and who can guarantee that this time it will not be in vain?

How did Jin Xuezeng dispel the concerns of the people? He brought out the two gods worshipped by the people of Chongming, the god of the sea and Mazu. Gather the fathers and elders of the county, lay down the three animal tributes, and pray for the blessing of the two gods.

and swore a poisonous oath in public that he would live with the county seat. The day the county town collapsed was the time when he Jin Xuezeng died!

Coupled with some scientific means to create supernatural phenomena, the people of the county finally mustered up the courage to do it again.

This set of operations is in the same vein as his ancestors, and it is almost the secret book of the official of the Science Gate.

Everyone in the whole county is working hard for themselves. Finally, it took less than two months to build a building with a circumference of nine miles and thirty steps, and a city width of eleven steps. There are four land gates and one water gate.

In the future, the coal will be transported to the island, the kiln will be dug to burn the bricks, and the earthen wall will be wrapped in the city bricks in a month or two, and a solid Chongming county will be built!

Jin Xuezeng was afraid that the people were worried that the city wall was rough and could not resist the enemy, so he added four gatehouses and four corner towers on the city wall. Chongming County, which was walled like a billet in the original area, suddenly looked like a decent one.

Although it was useless to defend the city, it greatly improved the people's sense of security because it looked very presentable.

At the same time, Jin Xuezeng organized the people to build streets and county offices in Tucheng. The Sand Boat Gang also began to build houses in the east of the city, preparing to move the general rudder to the county seat.

The entire Sansha Island is already a big construction site in full swing at this time.

in the ward.

After listening to Chen Huaixiu's report, Zhao Hao was very satisfied with the performance of Chongming County and the Shachuan Gang.

Although Chen Huaixiu did not boast a word, it goes without saying that she also knows that her credit is indispensable here.

It's really in vain that Zhao Gongzi took great pains to send her to the throne of the helper.

Now, I can talk to her about two issues that were put on hold.

"The Sand Boat Gang is pounced on the construction of the county, and the business is probably very affected, right?" Zhao Gongzi asked naturally.

"That's nature." Chen Huaixiu nodded and said: "Now eighty percent of the men in the gang, more than half of the old people and women, are busy working on the construction site. Only five or six hundred sailors were left to run the ship and haul the goods, and maintain the livelihood of the lower gang. ”

Saying that, she patted the white silk on her hand and said frankly: "But Childe doesn't have to care too much, even if there is no project, most of the ships will be idle." This year, the market is not good, business is difficult to do, and we are the most affected by the boat. Fortunately, there is a big project in Chongkaisi, at least I don't have to worry about helping the people go hungry. ”

"The Sand Boat Gang is still going to run the boat. Sailors and ship bosses are valuable talents, and it would be a waste to carry sacks on the construction site. Zhao Hao smiled and said: "It's better for us to set up a joint venture shipping company, just to undertake Jiangnan Group's own business, it is enough to feed the whole gang." ”

"So?" Chen Huaixiu heard that he was happy first and then worried, with mixed joys and sorrows.

In fact, she has been waiting for Zhao Hao here, and a large part of the reason is to see if she can pull some business from Jiangnan Group to replenish her blood.

Now Zhao Hao is willing to hand over all the group's transportation business to the Sand Boat Gang, of course, it is better. In the future, the harvest will be guaranteed by drought and flood, and the livelihood will be worry-free.

But the problem is, it's a little too good.

Chen Huaixiu is not the kind of fool who only stares at what is in front of him. She was keenly aware of a fatal question - once the two sides set up a joint venture shipping company, as Zhao Hao said, should the ship boss and sailors listen to the gang or the company?

The Sand Boat Gang is not a gang, but a trading house dressed as a gang. The key to the helper's ability to control the whole gang is that she can contact the business on behalf of the whole gang externally; Internally, it has the right to distribute business.

Once it becomes a shipping company, the business is dispatched by Jiangnan Group and distributed by the shipping company. Is it still necessary for her as a gang leader to exist?

Even if no one abolishes themselves, they will gradually lose control of the gang, and the Sand Boat Gang will also exist in name only......

Chen Huaixiu was not afraid of the former result, but she couldn't afford the latter result.

ps. The third update, go and write another one, and make up for yesterday's debts. Hey, otherwise you won't be able to sleep well......
