Zhang Xian's visit to the small fishing village is not a private visit to Weifu, he wants to wait for Luo Song here.

Because I went out from here when I went to sea, it was easy to find this place by agreeing to meet with Luo Song.

I didn't expect the local government to govern at a speed that was okay, the small fishing village was no longer managed by anyone, and several young people drank the tea made by Zhang Xian himself, believing that they would boast for a lifetime, but the actual benefit was the body.

The old man is the elected village chief.

This is not a magistrate, there is no money, it is the people of the village who elected a person of high moral integrity to cooperate with Baozheng to manage the village.

Bao Zheng normally has one person per village, but the village will also send one person to assist, especially those remote villages that are not so peaceful.

The small fishing village had been ransacked by pirates, so the old village chief was particularly vigilant, arranged for many young people to patrol in batches, and raised dozens of hunting dogs.

In addition, the government also sent a large bell.

"If a pirate is attacking, ring the bell to warn you, and there is a barracks thirty miles away, and thirty fast horses are guerrilla, and they will rush to support them as quickly as possible. ”

Bao Zheng reported to Zhang Xian.

Zhang Xian nodded, and then asked:

"Liu Xin is the county magistrate of Xiaoyancheng, right?"

"Back to Your Majesty, Lord Liu has now been transferred to Zhaocheng, and it is the new Lord Song who manages us here. ”

Zhaocheng is obviously much larger than Xiaoyancheng, it belongs to a large county, Xiaoyancheng is relatively small and barren, Liu Xin is the cousin of Liu Yajushi, but it is said that Liu Xin did not rely on his cousin's fame to become a county magistrate.

Zhang Xian met him once at Sea Snake Beach.

Liu Xin is a weak scholar, but he has some backbone, but he didn't expect that in more than half a year, he was transferred to the more prosperous Zhaocheng.

Bao Zheng was about to send someone to find the Xiaoyancheng County Order, but Zhang Xian stopped him, he didn't want to disturb the place.

Since this Lord Song has such an arrangement, Zhang Xian feels that this person is still a capable magistrate.

The barracks that Bao Zheng said should be county soldiers, with thirty fast horses guerrilla, which shows that the government still attaches great importance to this seaside.

Although Zhang Xian didn't ask in detail, he estimated that a barracks should be set up at intervals on the seaside, and there should not be many fast horses, which should be the key points.

It seems that during the period of going to sea, the local government and the ocean-going navy have been very strong in cracking down on pirates, but it is not a matter of time to completely eliminate pirates.

The local government was not capable of going to sea to encircle and suppress pirates, but it was also valuable to be able to take active defensive measures, after all, the government in this remote area had only been established for a long time.

Stayed in the small fishing village for two days, and it snowed again in the past two days, but it was not big, the boundary of Xiaoyancheng was desolate and desolate, and there were no traces of people traveling after the snow, but there were many sea beasts on the beach by the sea.

The roads are not so good, and the fish caught are not easy to transport to Zhaocheng, especially on this snowy day, the fishmongers are reluctant to come and collect the fish.

"Your Majesty, can you repair the road to Zhaocheng or to Xiaoyancheng, this rainy and snowy day, this road will not be able to go, the fish cannot be sent, and the daily necessities cannot be transported back." ”

Zhang Xian really hadn't thought about this matter, and the old village chief mentioned it, and Zhang Xian woke up.

The monks don't care too much about whether the road is good or not, but when you experience it as an ordinary person, you know how important it is to have a good road or not.

However, it takes a lot of money to build roads, and Zhang Xian knows that the local government is poor, because the tax holiday has not yet passed, and the government does not have much financial revenue.

"I'll figure it out, but it's hard to do it in a short period of time. ”

"Why don't we use fundraising?"

The old village chief suggested.

"Your meager income, that's a drop in the bucket. ”

Zhang Xian suddenly had a flash of inspiration, there is a way, that is, to establish a coastal defense line, entrust the military department to do this, has issued treasury bonds to raise funds, so that not only the road is built, but also the coastal defense line is established by the way, since the pirates can not be eliminated in a short time, then let the legions deployed here, while training while building roads and building coastal defense lines, by the way to deter those pirates, the troops are active here, but also to drive commerce, after all, it is safe, merchants are willing to come, in addition to bringing income to these poor people, a few corps living materials that is a huge number。

So Zhang Xian wrote a letter to Chen Gongwei, and it happened that Luo Song arrived with someone and asked him to send it.

"Old man, I believe that it will not be long before the roads will be repaired and your life will get better and better. ”

Before leaving, Zhang Xian also inquired about the little girl who was sent to the Wenwu Academy.

The old village chief told Zhang Xian that Wu Ying had written to him, saying that he was doing well in the Wenwu Academy and that his cultivation had made progress.

Zhang Xian then left the small fishing village.
