Chapter 66 The same year as the county
Bishui County is located at the confluence of the three rivers of Bishui, Luohe and the Yellow River, the ancient Xiongguan, and close to the Gubaidudu, one of the major ferries of the Yellow River, the position is important, and the county seat is much larger than Heyin County.

When Xu Ping arrived outside the county, it was already nearly evening, and the afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on his body, like a layer of golden light. Outside the county, the yard is still very lively, a prosperous scene.
Among the surrounding counties, the territory of Bishui County is almost the smallest, basically on both sides of a river, but there are many households under the rule, and they all rely on this ferry and wharf.
Luoshui flows into the Yellow River here, and the boats of the two rivers also meet here, making it a large wharf, from which the goods of Shaanxi Road and Henan Province are transported to the capital.
Outside the county seat, Wang Yan stood in front of the greeting officials with a calm face, and his feelings were very complicated. Speaking of which, Xu Ping did not target him when he joined the third division, but he was also a deputy envoy, and the huge difference in treatment between the two still made him feel very uncomfortable. Coupled with the dispute in Octagon Town, Xu Ping became more and more unpleasant.
There are only two people with him, although it is said that he can call the personnel of the local state and county, but where is it easy to bring his own people? After surveying the river, he didn't have the mind, but just took a cursory look.
Before the breakup, Xu Ping assigned the task to the two, and the section from Gongxian County to Bishui that Wang explored was only a few miles away, and most of the things were actually done by Xu Ping. Xu Ping asked Wang Yan to walk up the Luoshui, mainly to see if the amount of water was enough for the new canal, and then to find a place on the Luoshui that was suitable for damming and blocking.
Wang Yan didn't have the heart to do these things, and took a look at it, spending most of his time in Gongxian. 、
Not to mention this generation, even if it is a thousand years down, it is difficult to make a very clear conclusion about the feasibility of this kind of project. There are benefits to cultivation, but there are also difficulties in cultivation, and how to balance the pros and cons is a great component of subjective will.
If you think that you can't fix it, as long as you exaggerate the difficulties and say that the advantages are small, anyway, it's not made up, what can others say? On the contrary, those who advocate cultivation must clearly estimate how to cultivate, how much time it will take, and how much manpower and material resources it will take, which is much more difficult than opposing it.
Wang Yan thought exactly like this, Xu Ping wanted to build this canal, but he just said that he couldn't build it. If Xu Ping wants to refute him, he must spend ten times and a hundred times his energy. Let Xu Ping spend his mind and energy on this, and the affairs of the relative three divisions will not be able to manage so much, and there will be room for Wang Yan to exert his strength.
Seeing Xu Ping coming slowly, Wang Yan stepped forward and saluted: "Deputy Xu is far away, and he is far away!" ”
Xu Ping rode on a horse, looked at Wang Yan, and was silent for a while before he smiled: "The deputy envoy of King Lao went out of the city to greet him, how dare he be in the next place?" It's really frustrating! ”
After speaking, he turned over and dismounted, and saluted Wang Yan in return. The two have met, and the magistrate and wingman of Bishui County stepped forward to see it.
Zhang Dayou, the county governor of Bishui, was the same year as Xu Pingtiansheng's fifth year of Jinshi, and after Wang Yanhou stepped forward and bowed: "The lower officials have seen Xu to be systematized!" I haven't seen you for many years, and the style of the system is the same as before! ”
Xu Ping hurriedly held on: "Why should I do these vulgar rituals!" You and I are a Jinshi, naturally different from others! I'm a guest from afar today, and I'm going to bother you for a few days! ”
Zhang Dayou said: "What are the instructions to be made, just arrange it." ”
After speaking, I felt a little bitter in my heart. Yes, the first list of Jinshi back then, now Xu Ping is already high, but he hasn't even crossed the threshold of Xu Ping's entry back then. The various encounters in life are really hard to describe.
Subsequently, Zhang Dayou introduced the county's chief bookkeeper and county lieutenant, and the county's elders came over to offer a greeting gift, and Xu Pingcai and Zhang Dayou walked side by side to the county seat.
Wang Yan was left aside, and his heart became more and more depressed. But what can be done? This small Bishui Zhixian turned out to be the same year as Xu Ping, and they were their own people, and they hadn't seen each other for many years, so they naturally seemed very affectionate.
Although it is said to be the same Jinshi, Xu Ping is Tanhualang, a first-class first-class high-ranking person, while Zhang Dayou is only a second-class person, and he was not very eye-catching back then. Whether it is a collection of periods, a small record of the same year, or a Qionglin banquet, he and Xu Ping just nodded in general, and they didn't say a few words. After all these years, the status of the two has been far apart, although Xu Ping's words are full of affection, Zhang Dayou has always been careful about his identity, and he never dares to lose his consciousness of being a subordinate.
That's the way it is in officialdom, the high-ranking nature can do whatever you want, and there is no shelf that is approachable. But those who are subordinates must be careful, and they will cause trouble at any time.
The county seat of Bishui is much bigger than the county seat of Heyin, and the pedestrians on the street are bustling, Xu Ping sees it in his eyes and feels that it is really two worlds. When I arrived here, I had the feeling that I had been in the mountains and forests for a long time.
Entering the city gate, Zhang Dayou said: "To be systematized, the lower officials set up a feast in the largest Qinghe Building in the county, I don't know if it is going to go now, or go to the county government to wash and then go?" ”
Xu Ping shook his head and said, "Alas, we haven't seen each other for many years, so why bother to go to the restaurant?" It's a noisy place, and it's not a place to talk. Let's let people be sent to the county office, we are more comfortable. ”
"It's naturally good to do this, and the next official will give orders in a while."
Xu Ping smiled and took Zhang Dayou's hand and said, "Loss, you are too polite, let's be good casually." ”
Wang Yan can get the support of the prime minister in the court, Xu Ping has to think of a way from the lower level, it just so happens that the magistrate here in Bishui is his own year, how can he not make good use of it? What's more, what he did was also good for Zhang Dayou, it was hello, hello, hello, everyone, and it was also the same year.
Xu Ping will not stay in Bishui County for too long, and he has some things to explain to Zhang Dayou, and when he is surrounded by all kinds of people in the restaurant, he will have no chance. The county government is Zhang Dayou's territory, so it is much more convenient to do.
The excavation of a new canal depends not only on the specific situation of the survey, but also on the opinion of the magistrate. There is Li Shen in Mengzhou, Xu Ping doesn't need to worry about it, in the following counties, the most important thing is to look at Bishui and Gongxian. As long as the magistrates of these two counties firmly believed that the canal was feasible, coupled with Xu Ping's careful preparation, this matter would not be something that Wang Yan could stop. As long as the canal is dug through, all of Xu Ping's predicaments will be solved.
Speaking of which, it is still necessary to do things in order to calm down those noisy remarks. Verbal arguments are not Xu Ping's forte, and if they fall into endless arguments, it will be the most unfavorable to Xu Ping.
(I'm in such a bad state today, I feel like I can't write it alive or dead, and I'm depressed.) (To be continued.) )
