Chapter 741: Returning to the Mirror
No one expected that the new prefect not only did not reprimand Jiang Jiaoyu for his extravagant words, but instead showed appreciation.
"Yes!" Jiang Zhonghua returned the salute, as if he had been encouraged, and said eloquently: "Xiangshan City is only surrounded by four earthen walls, and it can't be defended by the city at all, so it can't provide enough security for the rich families in Xiangshan County!" As far as this Jiaoyu knows, the wealthy families of Xiangshan County either went to Shunde County to buy houses or settled in Guangzhou City. Our Xiangshan County is now like a broken bamboo basket, which can't be loaded at all! And if you want to change the current situation, Xia Guan thinks that you have to build a brick city, so that Xiangshan can become a rich place! β
Obviously, Jiang Zhonghua really saw the root knot of Xiangshan County. Although he did not understand the theory that "security is the first need of human beings", he understood that the loss of wealthy households in Xiangshan County was caused by the lack of a brick city in Xiangshan, which affected the appearance of Xiangshan County.
The solution to this problem is naturally very simple, that is, to meet the security needs of the wealthy and build a brick city in the territory of Xiangshan.
Bang!
Suddenly a sound sounded in the living room, and it fell very clearly on the hearts of the officials present.
"Well said!"
As if he had received a great revelation, Lin Haoran slapped his palm the table next to him, his eyes looked bright, and his attitude was very distinctly appreciative.
Although the sound was not loud, it was enough for all the officials present to hear it. Obviously, Jiang Zhonghua's seemingly ridiculous proposal has won the high approval of the new prefect.
As soon as he thought of this, Li Jialiang and other officials turned their heads to look at Jiang Zhonghua, and their eyes showed a look of envy.
Ay......
Li Zhixian and Liu Xiancheng were secretly annoyed, it was not that they didn't think of this factor, they just thought of the large amount of money spent on building the city, so they didn't say it.
If they knew that the new prefect really let them "speak freely", then they would have said it a long time ago, and there was nothing about Jiang Zhonghua at all.
Jiang Zhonghua faced Lin Haoran's high praise, but his face did not change, and he looked at Lin Haoran very solemnly, as if he wanted to know Lin Haoran's true attitude.
He naturally hoped that Xiangshan County could build a brick city, but he also knew the difficulty, unless the lord of Futai clearly nodded in agreement and expressed support for repairing the city.
It's just that his worries are obviously unnecessary, because Lin Haoran's real intention of inspecting Xiangshan County this time is to promote the construction of a new city in Xiangshan County.
Lin Haoran looked at the officials, and said aloud very seriously: "Since ancient times, there is no city and no stand!" And the brick city is the guarantee of prosperity everywhere! Jiang Jiaoyu is right, if Xiangshan wants to become a rich place, it must build a brick city! β
After going around in a big circle, Lin Haoran publicly said his intention to repair the city.
However, he has only said this publicly now, and the meaning is completely different from what he said at the beginning.
If he had stated that he wanted to build Xiangshan City from the beginning, that would be what he, the new prefect, wanted to do. But now, it is up to Jiang Zhonghua to say it, but it is he, the new prefect, who has adopted Jiang Jiaoyu's plan, so he decided to promote the construction of Xiangshan City in Xiangshan County.
Don't underestimate the difference, although they are doing the same thing, the resistance will be greatly reduced.
"Lord Fuzun is very right! It's just that...... Now the county government's finances are stretched, and it really can't come up with this large sum of money! Li Jialiang gave the old master Bo a look, and the old master Bo understood Xiangshan's embarrassment.
All the officials looked at Lin Haoran one after another, and their eyes swelled with hope. Who wants to stay in this earthen wall all the time, who doesn't want to live in a brick city like a fortress, it's just that silver is a huge problem, and their finances in Xiangshan County can't afford it at all.
Lin Haoran naturally knew the financial situation of Xiangshan County, nodded slightly and said: "This government also knows that the Xiangshan County government is financially tight, but we can set goals first, and then achieve them step by step, wouldn't it be happy!" β
The effect of the chicken soup was not obvious, and an official sitting in the back had the courage to ask: "Lord Fuzun, can you allocate a sum of money to our Xiangshan County to repair the brick city?" β
As soon as the words fell, the officials present all looked at Lin Haoran, and their eyes showed a hint of hope. After all, with the financial resources of the Guangzhou government, it is not a difficult thing to allocate a sum of money to build a brick city for them.
Lin Haoran can do this, but if he supports Xiangshan County so generously, the other thirteen counties in one state will probably come to the door to complain and ask for money and food, and he will definitely be annoyed to death at that time.
He didn't hide it, looked at the officials and said directly: "The finances of the Guangzhou Mansion are not rich, but the government has a way, if you have nothing to do tomorrow, you can go to Haojing with the mansion!" β
"The subordinate obeys!" Although Li Jialiang and other officials didn't know what medicine was sold in Lin Haoran's gourd, they all saluted respectfully.
Lin Haoran found that Jiang Zhonghua didn't say anything, so he looked at him gently and said, "Jiang Jiaoyu, you can take some time tomorrow and go to Haojing with this mansion!" β
"The subordinate obeys!" Jiang Zhonghua bowed his hand at this time, but his face still looked not smiling.
Of course, this is actually a faΓ§ade. To be so favored by the new prefect of Gao Gao, he is actually very happy in his heart, but his face is not good at showing it.
Especially because he was born in a person, this is destined to not go too far in his career, and he will be constrained everywhere. And if this backer helps, then everything is a different matter.
In addition, he also hopes that Xiangshan can have a real Xiangshan City, so that it can become rich here, and he also has a curiosity about Lin Haoran's trip to Haojing.
After the deliberations were over, it was naturally a high-level reception banquet. Although Xiangshan County is very poor, the wine and food that received Lin Haoran are not bad, and a song and dance performance is arranged.
Lin Haoran is not the kind of official whose eyes can't tolerate sand, but also drinks and has fun with all the officials, enjoying the high benefits of being an official.
But I don't know if it is the beauty of Xiangshan, or after the careful selection of Lizhi County, two of the dancers are in good shape.
Lin Haoran knew very well in his heart that as long as he praised the two dancers a little, someone would strip the dancers and send them to his room tonight.
The next morning, Lin Haoran led the officials of the Xiangshan County Government through the lotus stem and came to Haojing again.
It's just that unlike the last time, this time he came here as the prefect of Guangzhou and the secretary of Guangdong City, and he was resolutely a high-minded master.
