When Miss Zhang heard Fan Hongdao's answer, she couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoThe last time we met, Fan Hongdao was very aggressive, but today he is a little calmer.

The reason why Fan Hongdao wanted to slow down was because he was about to leave for Shanxi, and he didn't have the energy to focus on Jingshi for the time being, and he didn't have the ability to remotely control the situation thousands of miles away.

On the other hand, Fan Hongdao was caught off guard by Miss Zhang's theoretical frenzy, and felt that he needed some time to sort out and digest it, so he had to straighten out his ideas first.

After that, another day later, Gao Yushi sent someone to pass the word and asked Fan Hongdao to come over. So Fan Hongdao went to the Imperial Palace, and in the Gao Yushi Mansion, there were three scribes in addition to Gao Yushi himself.

There are a total of four literati with Fan Hongdao, all of whom are subordinates of Gao Yushi who were recruited from this business trip. Including Fan Hongdao, two are Xiucai who are registered by the Pedestrian Division, and two are scribes who are transferred from the household department.

Looking at this battle, it can be regarded as a mobilization meeting before departure. Of course, there are more than a dozen other errand officers, but their status is low and they are not qualified to go to the hall to discuss matters.

If there is a big operation, of course, these manpower will not be enough. However, when you arrive at the local area, you can transfer personnel from the local area, so you don't have to worry about manpower problems.

Gao Yongchun Gao Yushi was full of spring breeze, looked around at everyone and announced with great ambition: "You and others are all talents selected by the old man, and now the personnel are complete, and the customs defense has been issued, and you can set off tomorrow! Wanger and others work together, live up to the trust, and serve the court!"

In the Ming system, the general official seal was used, which was square in shape. The Qin cha is called Guan Fang, which is rectangular in shape, which is different from ordinary official seals.

The imperial history out of Beijing to inspect is equivalent to the Qincha system, whether it is to patrol the imperial history or to patrol the salt imperial history, so there is no official seal and only the customs defense. Once the customs defense is issued, it means that it has begun to perform its duties.

It turned out that today was just a formality, and Fan Hongdao didn't have much interest in these scenes, and his mind gradually wandered out of the world, wondering who to borrow some money from. When you go out, if you don't have any money in your hand, you always have no bottom in your heart.

Although this trip is a tolerance, and the government is responsible for the expenses all the way, but you should also bring some private money, as the saying goes, be prepared, who knows what will happen.

Just when Fan Hongdao was thinking wildly, another Xiucai named Han Yanchang was very active and took the initiative to ask: "The boss is traveling, and he is stationed in Yanchi, Jiezhou, I don't know which way to go?"

Gao Yushi is the history of patrolling salt, and supervising the salt administration, so the station will not be a provincial capital, but a place where salt is produced. Hedong salt is all produced from Jiezhou Salt Pond, so the Salt Patrol Imperial History Residency can only be here.

Jiezhou Yanchi is located in the southwesternmost corner of Shanxi Province, and is at the junction of Shaanxi and Henan, which is not close to Jingshi, at least not as close as Datong in the north of Shanxi Province.

Of course, Gao Yushi knew what to expect, but after he secretly observed his words, he suddenly felt a little dissatisfied with Fan Hongdao, who was obviously distracted.

The old Yushi couldn't help but wonder in his heart, is there a sign of arrogance in this guy? Before he set off, he began to be lazy and lazy, which is not a good thing.

Therefore, the old Yushi decided to give Han Yanchang a chance to perform, so that Fan Hongdao had a sense of crisis, and did not think that he was the only one available.

So the old Yushi asked in an encouraging tone: "Presumably, Xiansheng has a bamboo in his chest, but he has a plan?"

"In the following check the classic atlas, there are three roads from Beijing to Shanxi, the north road to the direction of Datong border pass, and Xie Zhou is far from the south, you can not choose.

The remaining two roads, one is to go south to Zhuozhou, turn to the east of Laishui, then cross Matouguan into Shanxi, and then turn south through Yanmen Pass to Taiyuan Mansion. Finally, along the valley of the Fen River all the way to the southwest, you can reach Jiezhou.

Instead, go south to Zhengding Mansion and then turn eastward, cross Taihang Mountain from Jingcheng, enter Shanxi, and then go to Taiyuan Mansion. The rest of the journey is along the Fen River valley to Jiezhou. In the following suggestion, you can choose the last path. ”

"Good!" Gao Yushi seemed to have heard some great clever strategy, and praised the case: "It can be seen that Xiansheng is really attentive, and this hard work is really commendable! If you are as diligent as you are in the king's affairs, why should the old man worry about not being able to do his errands!"

The voice of the old imperial history was a little loud, which woke up the ethereal Fan Hongdao. Gao Yushi asked Fan Hongdao again: "What do you think?"

Fan Hongdao pursed his lips boredly, and said a little impatiently: "What's good? Why are you so rigid in your thinking? This time you are indeed going to Shanxi, but you must go from Shanxi?"

Gao Yongchun didn't say anything, but Han Yanchang, the talented talent who had made the suggestion earlier, was annoyed and asked: "Jingshi to Shanxi Avenue Chaotian, then what other way do you say?"

Shanxi has always been known as the mountains and rivers on the surface, and it is conceivable what the situation is, and the mountains and rivers are vertical and horizontal at home and abroad, and the terrain is broken.

If you follow the two roads that Brother Han said, directly from Jingshi to Shanxi, then all the way through the mountains and rivers, but also through a lot of uninhabited places, the journey is very difficult, why is this difficult?

Although the salt pond in Jiezhou is located in Shanxi, it is also not far from the junction with Henan, so why not go from Henan? We can go south from Jingshi all the way to Henan and then to the northeast, so that Pingchuan is prosperous and the journey is very comfortable.

Then cross the Yellow River, and then cross the Zhongtiao Mountain, and you will arrive at the Jiezhou Salt Pond. Although this is a little detoured, it can be called a difficult journey for only one or two days!

Therefore, it is advisable to let go of our thinking, cross the border from Henan, and cross the river to get there! Don't just talk about the army on paper and only see a corner and ignore the overall situation, we must go from Jingcheng or Biaotou Pass to cross the mountains and mountains and enter Shanxi, that is asking for your own hard work!"

Han Yanchang was furious, and rebuked Fan Hong sternly: "My generation serves the imperial court, how can we be afraid of hardships and dangers? In order to covet the comfort of the journey, we deliberately go far and waste time, and we will not be taken by the gentleman! If it is really for comfort, you can't go!"

Fan Hongdao laughed a few times, and laughed coldly. "Do you know that the largest export destination of Shanxi Jiezhou Yanchi is Henan? The two provinces are bounded by the Yellow River, and the most important and largest ferry port is called Maojindu!

And because Jiezhou is very close to Maojindu, Maojindu is also the main node of Hedong salt export, and even here is the largest distribution center!

As a salt inspector, Lord Gao crossed the border from Henan and then went to inspect Maojindu? Could it be that the salt patrol only cares about the salt producing areas, regardless of transporting salt and selling salt?"

Then Fan Hongdao turned to Gao Yongchun and said, "The old man is on top! Don't listen to those words on paper, the words of pedantic scholars are useless!"

Please follow the following words, just cross the border from Henan, and you can inspect the Yanyan District and Maojindu by the way, which is really the best choice for the journey!"

Fan Hongdao's suggestion is really popular and expected, and other attachés have praised it. If there is a comfortable and politically correct journey, who wants to go through the mountains and mountains to find hardship?

At the same time, I feel that this Fan Hongdao is really different from ordinary people, obviously he is greedy for comfortable arrangements, how did he become so reasonable when he got to Fan Hongdao's mouth?

Gao Yushi could only be speechless, this Han Xiucai was too useless in front of Fan Xiucai, and he couldn't hold out for half a round. As for the healthy competition that is said to be good, it is completely one-sided and beaten.

"When I go to Hedong, the first merit must be mine, and the quota for Guozijian is also mine! Whoever dares to steal the limelight with me will beat him!" With this little episode, Fan Hongdao finally lifted his spirits, and thought more ambitiously than Gao Yushi.
