Chapter 341

Li Lizhen heard Wei Hao's words and looked at Wei Hao in surprise.

"Shen Yong, you are in prison now, how can you get out? You went out, how did Your Majesty explain to those ministers? Li Siyuan looked at Wei Hao with a smile and said.

"No, I'm not going out, how do I know about Wannian County?" Wei Hao looked at the two of them helplessly and said.

"Hmph, how could my father agree?" Li Lizhen also stared at Wei Hao and said.

"If you go and say it, just say what I said, and if you want to scold, you will also scold me!" Wei Hao looked at Li Lizhen with a smile and said.

"Hmph, let's go! Anyway, my father will definitely scold you when the time comes! Li Lizhi looked at Wei Hao and said,

Soon, the two of them left, and the things they brought, Wei Hao sent the jailer to his cell.

In the evening, Li Shimin had dinner in the Ganlu Temple.

"Father, my daughter went to visit Shen Yong in the cell in the morning." Li Lixian smiled cautiously, looked at Li Shimin and asked.

"Visiting? He still needs to visit, and you wonder how comfortable he is inside? Li Shimin heard it, smiled and said.

"Hehe, he said that you are a pit goods, I guess it's not a good thing!" Li Lizhi said with a smile.

When Li Shimin heard it, he was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Li Lizhi very depressed and said, "Father is a pit goods?" What is he? Yes? In this fight, half of the court's Wenchen went in, and this kid is not working well now! ”

"He said, Wannian County is so poor, you still let him be the county magistrate. He said that he wanted to go to the county government to see how to carry out governance, and said that he would go out during the day and return to the cell at night every day, and promise not to enter the house! Li Lizhi looked at Li Shimin and said carefully, she wanted to stare at Li Shimin's expression.

"Is that jail?" Li Shimin looked at Li Li and asked.

"It's not!" Li Lizhi immediately shook her head and said.

"Why is Wannian County poor, what a good place, it's still poor, and he doesn't need to do anything, why does he want money?" Li Shimin stared at Li Lizhen and continued to ask.

"I don't know!" Li Lizhi shook her head and said.

"Hmph, it's impossible to come out every day, you can come out for one day in three days, really, let him serve as a county magistrate. It's that hard, as if I'm begging him to beg him. Li Shimin then said,

When Li Lizhi heard it, she opened her mouth wide, and looked at Li Shimin to wonder if she had heard it wrong, and her father actually agreed.

"Shen Yong, this kid, you don't know, you have to be strong, he wants to govern Wannian County well, but Wannian County is indeed not easy to govern, you let him be the county commander, I don't know how many people I will offend when the time comes, it is Xungui and those ministers who live there!" Empress Eldest Sun looked at Li Shimin with a smile and said.

"Well, that's why I asked him to go to the town, from dividing Chang'an City into two counties, Wannian County's several county commanders have not done anything, I also hope that Shen Yong will do it, money is not a problem, I will definitely give it to him, and the surroundings of Chang'an City must be done,

But it's not enough to have money alone, many things are controlled by someone, today this one does not agree, tomorrow one does not agree, nothing can be done. Li Shimin sat there and said to Empress Changsun.

"No wonder Hao'er said you were pitted!" Empress Eldest Sun said with a smile.

"That's no way, who will govern it? Do you know, Chang'an County makes everyone scramble, and Wannian County makes everyone hide! Li Shimin said with a wry smile.

"Well, Hao'er will definitely complain about you then!" Empress Eldest Sun continued to smile and said.

"Just complain, complain, he doesn't complain less, it's okay!" Li Shimin said very indifferently,

He knew that Wei Hao would complain about himself when he got the opportunity, and he was used to it.

The next day, Wei Hao received the news in the cell, saying that he could go out once in three days, after Wei Hao received the news, he immediately went out, and went straight to the county government of Wannian County, and when he arrived at the county office, the soldiers at the door hurriedly ran in to inform him.

"The county government of Wannian County is really big!" Wei Hao arrived at the gate of the county government and found that it was really well repaired, very big. And Du Yuan and the others also quickly ran out of it.

"I've seen the prefectural order!" Several people came over and said to Wei Hao.

"Well, yes, it's big, let's go, go in and have a look!" Wei Hao nodded, and walked directly inside, and when he got inside, Du Yuan took all the official seals that Wei Hao was the county order over, and handed them to Wei Hao with both hands: "The previous county commander just left, and left the official seal, I originally thought that I would send it to you later!" ”

"It's okay, vigorously, put it away!" Wei Hao nodded, and continued to look at the county office, the front is the office place, and the back is the place where the county order lives, it is very large, it is estimated that it covers an area of 100 acres, and the decoration inside can be very luxurious, Wei Hao turned around,

Then he returned to the lobby and sat on it, and the people in the entire county government were all standing below, waiting for Wei Hao's instructions.

"What can I do with just 300 yuan?" Wei Hao sat on it, looked at the people below and asked, they look at me, I look at you, I don't know how to pick up this topic.

"How much does the county government earn in a year? How much money can the court allot? Wei Hao looked at the master and asked.

"Back to the county order, the county government's annual income is about 400 yuan, the court allocated 5,000 yuan, this year has allocated 3,000 yuan, and there is still 2,000 yuan, which has not been allocated, and the Wei county order needs to go to the Ministry of Civil Affairs and ask them for money!" Lord Bo Chen Dahe looked at Wei Hao and said.

"It's only 400 yuan, my God, what can I do? In this way, a few of you will accompany me to visit the areas under my rule, and I will see what the current situation of the place I govern is! Wei Hao stood up as he spoke, those few people didn't dare to slack off, leaving two people to watch here, and the other officials followed Wei Hao on horseback.

Now it's snow outside, and the wheat is also buried in the snow, the road out of the city in Dongcheng is still good, Li Chengqian paid to repair the road from here to Luoyang, but it hasn't been repaired yet, but it's still being repaired, but it's very difficult to walk down from the straight road and go to the countryside, it's very difficult to walk, there is snow on the ground, and it's frozen, and people walking on it may slip, but fortunately, Wei Hao is riding a horse.

"Is this the road that leads to the villages?" Wei Hao looked at them and asked, then took the drawings of the county government and looked at them, while taking out a pen and drawing them carefully.

"Yes, but these villages are all fiefs of various lords' mansions!" Du Yuan said to Wei Hao. Wei Hao nodded and continued walking,

When he arrived in the village, Wei Hao found that there were at least 300 families here, but they were not registered, and they were all the food of those princes.

"Who's from this?" Wei Hao asked.

"Back to the county order, it's your father-in-law's, there were more than 100 households in this village before, but now there are more than 300 households, but they haven't been registered!" Du Yuan said.

Wei Hao heard it, it was written on the drawing, including indicating whose fief it was, and then Wei Hao continued to hurry, until it was dark, Wei Hao returned to Chang'an City, and rode a horse for a day, but it was less than one-tenth of the county.

Wei Hao found that in fact, many places can be reclaimed into fertile land, but they are all in a panic, and there are obviously not as many people in Dongcheng as there are in Xicheng, and one village in Dongcheng is at least 10 miles away from another village, and the village is not big, all of them are two or three hundred households.

In Xicheng, there is basically a village less than five miles away, and the village is also beaten, some of which are seven or eight hundred households, and those who are close to the mountainous areas also have one or two hundred households.

"You guys go back, it's hard work, I'll go to Juxian Building for dinner later, and vigorously send someone to bring them over, I'm invited!" All-you-can-eat! Wei Hao said to a few of them, and then instructed Chen Dali.

"Yes, Childe!" Chen Dali immediately called someone and asked him to take them to Juxian Tower.

"Thank you for the prefectural order!" When they heard this, they arched their hands at Wei Hao and said.

"Okay, I'll only be able to come out for one day in three days, and when I come out, we'll continue to walk around until we all understand the situation in the county, and then talk about office matters." Wei Hao said to them.

"Yes!" Several people also nodded, Wei Hao took the drawings back, then took out a blank piece of paper, and began to draw the places he walked through in detail, all of which were copied on the new white paper.

"Hmm!" Wei Hao looked at the drawings and sighed.

"Hurry up and eat, sigh what?" Li Yuan stared at Wei Hao and asked.

"Old man, I looked at about one-tenth of the county area today, I asked them, they said, there are almost so many people in other places, this tenth, I think, the people who have it, will not be less than 3,500 households,

That is to say, outside the east city, there will be no less than 35,000 households, plus more than 2,000 households in the city, the actual number will not be less than 37,000 households, but now, the county government has no news of these people, which is very unreasonable. Wei Hao looked at the old man and asked.

"You are in charge of the people who are registered, and those who are not registered, and those who are nobles are in charge, what does it have to do with you?" Li Yuan smiled, looked at Wei Hao and asked.

"That being said, I also know that if I forcibly move the interests of these people, it will definitely not work, and I estimate that it will be difficult for my father and emperor to protect me, and besides, there is also my father-in-law, and there are many uncles in it.

But don't move, I always feel that this is not good, this is not right, in the past two years, the population has increased very fast, I also asked those locals today, those young women, basically born in two years, can they all be brought up, I don't know,

But I found that each of those peasant families had a large group of children.

Old man, have you thought about it, twenty years later, how many people are around, and those people can't pay taxes, that's second, but the county government doesn't know how many people they have, this won't work, if something happens, there is no way! Wei Hao sat there, touching his head with one hand, looking at the drawings he had drawn, and said in distress.

"Don't move blindly, this is not something you can eat, there are princes, county kings, princesses, etc., as well as princesses, think about it, if you do this, how many people will you offend." Li Yuan looked at Wei Hao and said.

"I know, I'm just thinking, how can I get those people to take the initiative to register!" Wei Hao touched his head and continued.

"How is that possible?" Li Yuan heard it and said in disbelief.

"Nothing is impossible, just do it, I don't believe it anymore!" Wei Hao sat there, gritted his teeth and said, since you want to do it, you have to do it well, if you don't do it well, then what kind of county order should it be, anyway, you don't lack anything now, and doing something good for the people can be regarded as letting others read it.

Wei Hao continued to think of a way, thinking about what workshop to open, so that the people of the entire Dongcheng side would take the initiative to come out and register, and at the same time comprehensively increase the income of the people of the entire Dongcheng.

"Well, it is necessary to open a few workshops, these workshops must also be intensive, and they must be able to make money, and they must also let the people have a high income, and let the county government have an income!" Wei Hao sat there, touched his head and said.

"In addition, some shops need to be built outside the city, there is no land in the city, and the construction outside the city allows those merchants to live outside the city, so that those people can complete transactions outside the city, which can also drive the frozen economy!" Wei Hao continued to think of a way,

According to Wei Hao's guess, the population of the entire Dongcheng will not be less than 200,000, but the working population is not much, because there are a large number of children, Wei Hao continues to plan.

The next day, Wei Hao asked people to call Li Siyuan over, because Li Lizhen couldn't be called, Li Lizhen was in the palace, and he didn't come out much now.

"Shen Yong, you look for me!" Li Siyuan went to the warm room on the side of the cell, looked at Wei Hao and asked.

"Well, Siyuan, you go and help me do a few things, the first one is in the wasteland outside Dongcheng City, come, here, buy 10 acres of land, start to build a factory, and then, you transfer 20 women from my house and yours, and then I will teach them to make some small snacks, those small snacks need to be sold, not left at home to eat, there are twist flowers, popcorn, rice cakes, sesame cakes, etc., I estimate that it can attract about five or six hundred people to work!" Wei Hao sat there and said to Li Siyuan, and Li Siyuan looked at Wei Hao.

"What's wrong?" Wei Hao looked at Li Siyuan and asked.

"Isn't this what Changle did? Why do you need me to come? I won't either. Li Siyuan looked at Wei Hao and asked.

"I'll tell you first, what about you, when the time comes, go to Lizhen, you two discuss it, now that I am the county commander of Dongcheng, I need to consider the development of Dongcheng, Dongcheng side, there must be a large number of workshops,

In addition, I will persuade those craftsmen to let them come to Dongcheng to start a workshop, since the court does not give them much money, and there is no status, it is better to make money, they make money, and the county government also makes money, right? Wei Hao said to Siyuan.

"Well, why don't I go to Changle now?" Li Siyuan looked at Wei Hao and asked.

"No, come, look here, just buy 10 acres of land here, not much, this large area here, I need to use it for development, and let a large number of businessmen live here when the time comes!" Wei Hao said to Siyuan. "Oh, okay, buy 10 acres of land here!" Li Siyuan nodded.

"Well, there are also from my family, as well as your family, gather 20 women, in addition, ask your father-in-law, do you want to buy shares, if you buy shares, well, you also have to pay, no money can be owed first, I will cushion first, about a share needs 300 yuan, at most 30 percent, we also have to leave 30 percent, the remaining 40 percent, it is estimated that it needs to be divided at that time, do it well, one percent can earn at least 1000 yuan or so! I don't know much more! Wei Hao said to Li Siyuan.

"This money, they have, now the brick mill has divided a lot of money, there are a lot of treasury at home, my mother said, it's all up to you, or there is not so much money at home, a few days ago, Uncle Cheng borrowed 1000 yuan from the family, and bought a mansion for their family Shilang, and now their family, the minister Dalang is married, His Majesty Erlang said that he wants to give marriage, and Sanlang has not yet landed." Li Siyuan said to Wei Hao.

"It's good to have it, remember to tell your father-in-law!" Wei Hao said to Li Siyuan.

"Okay, however, I guess my dad doesn't dare so much, he will definitely call Uncle Cheng and Uncle Wei Chi, the two uncles and dad are friends of life and death!" Li Siyuan looked at Wei Hao and said.

"That's okay, when the time comes, from the forty percent, I will take out one percent, your family will account for two percent, and give two of them two percent!" Wei Hao opened his mouth and spoke.

"Good!" Li Siyuan nodded.

"Also, you go to my father, let my father be here, here, and here, buy three pieces of land, all of which are 10 acres, and build three workshops at home, a rice processing workshop, a flour processing workshop, and a furniture processing workshop!" Wei Hao said to Li Siyuan.

"What about this, is this going to be divided too?" Li Siyuan asked.

"The first two workshops are made with the family, it is impossible for your family to hold a share, which one in the back, you can!" Wei Hao nodded and said.

"Oh, I remember, what else?" Li Siyuan looked at Wei Hao and asked.

"Well, in fact, there are still a lot of things that can be done, but, eh, it is estimated that you will be remembered if you release it, it is not good to have too much money, the family has money now, some time ago, I dragged 90,000 yuan out of the palace, and there is no shortage of money!" Wei Hao sat there, touched his head and said,

When Li Siyuan heard it, he laughed, his own Langjun is really powerful, everyone in the Manchu Dynasty knows that when it comes to making money, no one can compare to Wei Hao, there is still liquor, tiles, glass, and glazed tiles at home that have not been released, if they are released, I don't know how much money they will make.

"Well, that's all, you and your father-in-law say, well, eh, forget it, I'll say it in person next time I see him!" Wei Hao originally wanted to say that let Li Jing register his food and food clearly, and let those who did not register let them go to the government to register, but Wei Hao was afraid that letting Siyuan say these words would cause misunderstanding, and Siyuan couldn't explain it clearly.
