Lu Zhixian got 1oo taels of silver, so he naturally obeyed Long Xiaoyan. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info81 ΔΔ Wenwang Long Xiao took the opportunity to make a document for the construction of the city wall, and asked Lu Zhixian to declare it, and Lu Zhixian submitted the document for the expansion of the city wall in Shenwu County to the prefect. When the prefect Wang Kexin saw that it was Long Xiao's proposal, he didn't stop it, and reported it to the governor of the province and county. Governor Guo Zihan was startled when he saw it.

The small Shenwu County actually raised its own money to build the city wall, or to expand the new city, the radius turned out to be 32 kilometers, this is a huge project, not to mention, has raised 13oo million taels of silver, the governor will think about it. If it is completed in one year, 13oo taels of silver is still a little lacking, if it is completed in two years, this silver will be greatly useless, why not mix it up, over the years since he took office, although the silver has been almost fished, but his age is not small, and the opportunity to fish for silver is not much, if you don't hurry up and get a few handfuls, there will be no store in this village.

So, Guo Zihan decided to go to Shenwu County in person, first, to inspect the security and folk customs of Shenwu County, and secondly, to find some faults, otherwise, they would not take their own governor seriously. Guo Zihan sent his own officials to write a codex to Shenwu County in advance, saying that he was going to inspect Shenwu County, which meant very clearly, that is, he wanted Shenwu County to prepare well.

When Lu Zhixian received the codex, he immediately told Long Xiao and asked Long Xiao to prepare, and Long Xiao understood, but the governor saw that he was going to build the city wall, so he also came to mix it up, maybe he came to fight the autumn wind. Long Xiao just smiled bitterly in his heart, it seemed that he was going to take out 1oo taels of silver again, but he didn't know how big the governor's appetite was. If the governor thinks that 1oo0,000 taels of silver is too little, he has no way at all, after all, his arms can't reach his thighs, so he has to act at the opportunity.

Long Xiao moved all the officials in the city to arrest and clean the city, and also ordered all the shops and green buildings to deal with their own doors, even the owners of those grocery stores should quickly clean up, if anything is not clean, let the governor see it, they will be severely punished by the county yamen, and the shops in the city will immediately start cleaning. As for the streets of Shenwu County, they are all paved with bluestone slabs and blue bricks, but there is no need for loess to cushion the road, as long as it is cleaned, especially the four major gates of the county, they have also begun to strictly investigate, as long as they look at the year is not pleasing to the eye, they will be expelled from the city, and the province will cause trouble to themselves.

A few days later, the governor's convoy of horses came with dozens of vehicles, and Long Xiao and Lu Zhixian led all the officials to go out of the city to meet them, and arranged for the governor to live in the best inn in the city. Long Xiao stepped forward with the magistrate to serve and listen to the governor's instructions. After Governor Guo Zihan came, he said that he needed to take a day off, and he would let everyone go back if he didn't work first.

Lu Zhixian was puzzled, so he discussed with Long Xiao: "Lord Long, when the general boss comes to inspect, he first goes to the Yamen Liwei, says something inconsequential, and then picks some small faults, but today, Governor Guo came, just rested, and didn't speak, this matter is not good." Long Xiao didn't understand very well, so he asked Lu Zhixian: "Lord Lu, you have lived in the capital, you know more things, what do you mean by Governor Guo?" ”。

Lu Yanshou: "Or, tonight, let's go to the inn to see Lord Guo and greet the body, just to find out?" Long Xiao also thought it was good, so he followed Lu Zhixian to Governor Guo's accommodation. Guo Zihan was waiting for the arrival of Lu Zhixian very Longxiao, and when he saw the two people coming, he politely invited them into the room, and the two of them stood, and Governor Guo was sitting, and the scene was quite embarrassing.

Governor Guo didn't speak, and the two of them couldn't talk, just waited quietly. Guo Zihan saw that the two of them were respectful, and his heart was overjoyed, so he said: "Two adults, didn't I say it, I want to rest today, I won't work today, I will talk about it tomorrow, do you have something important?" ”。 Lu Zhixian looked at Long Xiao, just let Long Xiao speak first, Long Xiao was helpless, so he had to say first: "Lord Guo, we are here to say hello, what does Lord Guo command, let's do it."

Guo Zihan looked at Lu Yanshou and then at Long Xiao, and said: "I'm also tired all the way, I wanted to take a break, since the two adults are here, let's drink some wine together, I'll invite the two of you today, how about it?" ”。 When Lu Zhixian heard this, he hurriedly said: "Lord Guo is a guest from afar, how can I let you have a treat, I will handle it immediately, Lord Long, you accompany Lord Guo to talk, I will come back immediately." Lu Zhixian went out to ask the innkeeper to prepare wine and food, Guo Zihan saw that Lu Zhixian went out, so he asked Long Xiao to sit down and said: "Lord Long, I heard that you are going to build a city wall and raise your own money, what is going on?" ”。

When Long Xiao saw Governor Guo talking about the silver, he knew that Governor Guo would definitely have his own ideas, so he told the truth: "Lord Guo, I went to Kongtong Mountain to exterminate a group of bandits, and obtained 13oo taels of silver, which was placed in the public account of Shenwu County, and then I felt that it was not good to put the silver, and someone just proposed that the inner city of Shenwu County was too small, so I decided to expand the city wall, and the 13oo taels of silver were about the same." Guo Zihan was stunned: "13oo taels, repairing the city wall is not a matter of a year and a half, if you invest 5oo taels every year, there are still a few years of effort, you can't spend this money, there is no other plan?" ”。

Long Xiao heard the taste, but Governor Guo didn't say it, and he couldn't give it away in vain, it just depended on how big Governor Guo's appetite was. Long Xiao: "At present, it is to expand the city wall, I mean it will be completed in one or two years, what do you think?" ”。 Guo Zihan said slowly: "Hehe, this is a big project, your Shenwu County is really rich, I will take out 13oo taels at once, and I will be embarrassed." Long Xiao: "What difficulties does Lord Guo have, can you say it and let the lower officials listen to it?" ”。

As soon as Guo Zihan heard that there was a door, it seemed that this Long Xiao was not stupid, and he said it himself before he wanted it: "Hehe, that's the case, I'm almost done, the house at home is very dilapidated, I want to repair it, but, you know, I've been a clean official all these years, and I don't want to save up, so it's very difficult to build an ancestral house." Long Xiao smiled: "Lord Guo still has a lot of silver, I still have some here, I'll make it up for you, if you don't dislike it." When Guo Zihan heard this, he finally spat out, and stretched out a finger.

Long Xiao said with a smile: "Since Lord Guo said it, then I will take out 1oo thousand taels to repair the ancestral house for Lord Guo, do you think it's okay?" Guo Zihan laughed when he heard it: "Lord Long, how can I use your silver, besides, although I know that your family is making weaving, and it will be more than 1oo taels of silver a year, which is not easy, I think I will borrow 1oo taels of silver from your project silver first."

When Long Xiao heard this, he was finally relieved, as long as it wasn't for Guo Zihan's lion opening his mouth, 1oo taels of silver was still within the scope of permission, so he took out a stack of silver tickets from his arms: "Lord Guo, this is 1oo thousand taels, that is, it was taken out of 13oo taels of silver, please smile." When Guo Zihan heard this, he put it away with a smile and put it into his arms. patted Long Xiao on the shoulder: "Lord Long, although you are young and have such a mind, your future is limitless, I thank you today, and I will give you an IOU." Long Xiao said with a smile: "Lord Guo, you just have a number in your heart, what IOU is not an IOU, anyway, this silver is seized from the bandits, and it is not considered the silver of the greedy country, you can use it with confidence, you don't have to pay it back, as long as you support Shenwu County and build the city wall, I am very grateful."

Guo Zihan took Long Xiao's hand and said cordially: "No problem, I have brought the documents of the city wall, there is no problem, I don't think there is any need to report to the Ministry of War, just the approval of the province and county, you can start construction recently, and I will come to congratulate you when the time comes." After Guo Zihan finished speaking, he took out the instructions for repairing the city wall and handed it to Long Xiao, who took it. At this time, Lu Zhixian also came back, followed by two people, carrying a box of dishes, Long Xiao saw that it was 18 dishes, and there were three pots of wine.

Guo Zihan saw it, and hurriedly took out 1o taels of silver and handed it to the person who delivered the food, and Lu Zhixian said: "Lord Guo, I have already paid for the food." Guo Zihan smiled and said: "This is a tip for two people, take it", and the two food deliverers took it happily and left with the empty food box. As soon as Lu Zhixian saw that Governor Guo was so generous, he looked at Long Xiao, and Long Xiao secretly said to Lu Zhixian: "It's done", and Lu Zhixian nodded with a smile.
