Chapter 493: Anticlimactic?
In the past few days, Tian Jiao has been thinking about what is the purpose of entertaining himself and the wealthy families in Jimo City before Heifu County Shouxing County?
It has been almost half a year since Heifu took office, and Tian Jiao has not had many opportunities to deal with him directly, but through his own eyeliner, he has always paid attention to the movements of this county guard.
If you say that Heifu gives Tian Jiao the feeling, it is a capable official, and he also likes to toss, and he does more things in half a year than the five years that his predecessor has stayed in combined.
At the beginning, Heifu supported the old Jiang Qi clan, opened a public school to encourage Confucian scholars to enroll, and recruited farmers to enter Jiaodong.
But freezing three feet is not a day's cold, and after half a year, the effect of these things is not as big as imagined: Jiang Qi's old clan has been weak for a long time, and it is difficult to stand up and compete with the fields with big trees and deep roots. Although the public school was opened, there were not many disciples in the first batch, and most of them were hairy guys, so it was difficult to entrust them with important tasks. As for the farmhouse? Although the "Song of the Twenty-four Solar Terms" is widely circulated, the people only believe that seeing is believing, and they must see the new method used to increase the yield of the fields during the autumn harvest before they can believe the government.
In addition, the government has recently to repair roads and build palaces for the emperor, and for a time there was a shortage of money and food, and all kinds of projects had to be suspended, and the rations of the county officials could only be half of the first.
Heifu County Shou pinned his hopes on the two gold mines found in Huangxian and Yeyi, but those mines are in remote places, and it is not easy to excavate.
Therefore, before he went to the county, he invited Tian Jiao and others, and actually proposed that the rich families take the lead in donating grain in exchange for the title of the Qin Dynasty......
Heifu even said to Tian Jiao after drinking a few more sips of wine: "All the clans in the county should pay equal attention. "Began to strongly invite the Tianjiao family to send their children into the public school, looking at this situation, the county guard finally recognized the facts, and understood that if there was no Zhutian, it would be impossible to govern Jiaodong?
This trip to the county, according to Heifu, was also to go to the counties to encourage the rich to donate grain to help the government tide over this difficulty.
"As long as the government has a request for Haolong, there is no need to worry." This is Takaku's experience.
But he was suspicious, and he always felt that there was something wrong with it, so he had been thinking about it for the past few days, and at the same time let people keep an eye on the Xingxian team, he wanted to know what the black man had done along the way.
At this moment, his younger brother Tian Jian walked in and said with a happy face, "Brother, have you heard?" Chunyu's case of plotting to assassinate the county guard is closed! ”
"Case closed! So fast? ”
Tian Jiao was stunned: "Didn't the county guard say before that he would investigate to the end?" For this reason, he did not hesitate to make a big move in Chunyu, killing many people, razing the three clans, and arresting the suspects and filling the prison. ”
"I also thought so, but who expected it to be thunder and rain, maybe because the investigation was fruitless."
The field told him that Heifu finally condemned the crime to a group of rangers in Chunyu County, but that group of people died because of resisting arrest as early as the beginning of the year when Chunyu County was fighting against gangsters.
Tian Jian smiled: "I said a long time ago, that Korean visitor is notoriously secretive, even if it doesn't work, he will never go on a business trip, Hugh said that my family is not involved in this matter, even if it is involved, the county guard and his dogs will not be able to grasp the handle!" ”
"I hope so......"
Tian Jiao's head, although this case has nothing to do with his family, but if you get to the bottom of it and find out that Yeyi Tian is the mastermind of this matter, Jiaodong may set off a bloody storm!
As long as there is no major incident, Zhutian will have the capital to drag it down and consume it.
Combined with the hasty conclusion of the assassination case, and the tendency of Jimo's new deal to give up, Tian Jiao had a new understanding of Heifu County Shou, and secretly said in his heart:
"I just hope that he is really a tiger-headed person!"
……
"Junjun, this case can be pursued further, but it was hastily closed, why is this?"
At the same time, Heifu and his party had already left Chunyu County, but Cao Shen, who was in charge of catching thieves and public security, was unwilling. Those villains are illiterate pavilion guards and fishermen, and they are so bold as to assassinate the county guard, there must be someone behind this who is secretly plotting, as long as he is sent to assist Gongao, he will definitely be able to pull out the radish and bring out the mud!
But now, Heifu hastily closed the case on his own, and couldn't help but say that he would send Gongao to Linzi to "do something", but Cao Shen didn't know what he was doing.
"After nearly half a year of investigation, it was finally found that it was just a light man in the county, and if it continues to be investigated, it will only make the place restless."
Heifu made a disapproving look, as if everything was under his control, and after letting Cao Shen take full charge of the convoy guards, he also pointed to the small city in front of him with interest and asked Wei Yangdao beside him:
"The name of this county is called Secret, do you know why?"
Yu Yang touched the back of his head and said he didn't know.
"Didn't we just pass through Gaomi a few days ago?"
Heifu said: "The river next to the road is glue, known as dense water in ancient times, dense water flows through Jiaodong, the southern terrain is high and the north is low, so the upper hills are called high density, and the downstream plain beaches are called lower dense!" ”
Only then did Wei Yang suddenly realize that Chunyu County, where they had just left, was in the middle of the two secrets.
Heifu asked him again: "Although the top three cities in Jiaodong are Jimo, Yeyi, and Gaomi, the importance of Xiami is no less than that of Sanyi, do you know why?" ”
This time, Wei Yang finally answered: "Is it because of the dense offshore sea and salt production?" ”
"Yes, yes."
Heifu said: "The ancients had clouds, Fu Chu had the gold of Ru Han, Qi had the salt of Quzhan, and Yan had the cooking of Liaodong, and the Three Kingdoms were rich in this way." The salt of this canal exhibition is in Jiaodong! In the place where Weishui, glue, and water flow into the sea. ”
Therefore, Xiami is also the most oily and watery place in the county, and seven of the twelve salt farms in Jiaodong are in Xiami, producing half of the county's salt every year, but in recent years, the output has been declining day by day, which makes Jin Bucao's bitter hair almost fall out.
According to the news that Heifu secretly heard, the dense water was not ordinarily deep, and the public salt was sluggish, but the private salt was very overflowing......
However, instead of heading straight to the seashore, they sailed into the Lower Secret City.
The order of Xiami County is called Zhou Min, and when he heard that the county guards the county, he has already taken his subordinates to wait in Shili Pavilion, and he prepared a feast in the county at night to wash the dust for Heifu.
Qin law stipulates that when the officials go on a business trip, the pavilions along the way are responsible for the food, and different levels of food are provided according to the status of officials. For example, when I went on a business trip, I polished half a bucket of rice at each meal, a quarter liter of sauce, sunflower soup, and leeks. If there is a person who has a knight, and the lord is a doctor or an official doctor or above, there is fish to eat. The entourage of officials, half a bucket of brown rice for each meal, a third of a bucket, and every expenditure of the pavilion will be recorded and handed over to the county every month for statistical review by the officials to ensure that no one dares to embezzle public grain.
But the higher the official goes, the looser the constraints become, and a two-thousand-stone official like Heifu has a feast waiting for him wherever he goes.
However, the reception feast in Mi County is full of big fish and meat, and the wine is also the best in the local area.
Even Heifu's retinue was treated to food that went beyond what was prescribed by the law, and the intent of issuing a secret order to curry favor could not be more obvious......
But Heifu didn't think it was strange, and after people tried the poison, they happily accepted it.
He also kept asking about the merits of Xia Mi County when he swept the Six Kingdoms, it turned out that he was Wang Qian's old department, and he also participated in the battle to destroy Chu, and he was a veteran soldier. The reason why he was able to be sent to Xiami, a wealthy place, as an official, shows that he has some background......
After he was full of wine and food, he issued a secret order and even hinted that the maidservants and dancers at the banquet could warm the beds of the county guards and heavy staff......
"No need, this county guard has one more thing to ask you."
With a wave of his hand, Heifu told everyone and the dancing girl to go down, leaving only a few doormen standing outside the door with swords.
The secret order asked Heifu with some trepidation: "I don't know what the county guard has to ask his subordinates?" ”
Heifu pulled out a letter from his cuff and said with a smile: "Under the secret order, during the period of this official county, someone reported that you accepted bribes, connived at private salt, and filled your pockets, but is it true?" ”
