Zhou Beijia waited until Wang Houdu walked to the gate of the Governor's Mansion in Island City, and then came out to greet him.

It's not that this old guy has been in charge for half a year, thinking that he is the eldest and his second, and he is really a good mayor, but it is really not an easy task, especially in this newly built port city, where the internal family of Qingzhou and the external imported homeless forces meet, this guy is really busy.

Economically, when Wang Hou left, he explained that he wanted to attract investment, and the old guy Jia Xu pouted and contacted the Jingzhou scholars and built a dye factory in Qingdao City to dye the cotton cloth produced in Rizhao into color and sell it at a high price.

Culturally, when Wang Hou left, he explained that he wanted to build a university, and the old guy Jia Xu pouted and pouted to choose a site at the foot of Laoshan Mountain, which was enough for the construction project of the engineering team, and I heard that it could be put into use.

There is also public security, this person is more and more messy, before the heroes of Taishan were not dead, and the people who fought and robbed became pediatrics, and now the crimes are becoming more and more organized! The most common is the smuggling of tax evasion, you must know that Wang Hou is not a philanthropist, he also wants to make money by building this port city, on the one hand, it is the sugar factory shop or something that he operates, on the other hand, it is the tax revenue of this port, every merchant ship that comes in, needs to pay Wang Hou a tenth of the value of the goods tariff.

This is a lot of money, some people naturally want to save it, this time, not far from Qingdao City, Xiangfu Island has a black harbor, many illegal businessmen from Dongwu come in and out of the trade materials here, and directly skip Wang Hou's part.

And then there's the gangster problem! Although the style of Ren Chivalry in this year is not as strong as that of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, there are still many ranger brothers like Guo Xie Zhu's family during the Wudi period, like Guo Jia, who worked as a ranger before his debut, and another famous ranger in the Three Kingdoms was Xu Shu, this old boy helped his friend to avenge and kill someone when he was a ranger, and was painted by the government and thrown into the market to kill him, and a few friends saved him at night at night, and then Xu Shu was beaten and understood, studied hard, first from Liu Bei, and then followed Cao Cao, without great achievements, It's a small business.

Nowadays, there are as many as 200,000 people in Qingdao City, including slave belts, and it is really nothing new for two or three gangsters to emerge, but to extort sugar farmers and collect protection fees in stores, it is also harmful to Qingzhou's commercial interests, which Jia Xu can't bear!

When Wang Hou came back, the old guy was in a meeting, preparing to set up a task force, and the black harbor was ended, the gangsters were cut, and the meeting was only halfway through

"Your Majesty Jia Xu, welcome the state pastor back to his home!"

"Hey! Mr. Jia has worked hard! Hurry up, please! ”

Capable people, no matter how tempered they are, are tolerable! The old man didn't have a good face, but Wang Hou had a smile like a two-skinned face, and quickly turned over and dismounted with a smile, holding Jia Xu's arm with both hands and helping him up.

Dismounted with Wang Hou, looking at Jia Xu's gloomy face of half of the 100,000 taels of silver owed to him by others, Cao Zhang, this kid was happy, this surnamed Wang is really a lot of annoyance! Master saw it right!

.........

Although I just came back from a business trip, after all, I am the major shareholder of Qingzhou, and I have to serve my job! Although he really wanted to go back to the house to meet Lu Ji and experience the warmth of his family, at the first time, Wang Hou still consciously returned to the mansion to work and listen to Jia Xu, the second-in-command in Qingzhou, report to work.

Not to mention, in the past half a year since he left, a lot of things have really happened!

The business is indeed prosperous, Wang Hou formulated the Dalian Jiao bridgehead plan to be implemented, Qi Di family, Taishan heroes have bought ships to go to sea, there is a month, the Japanese slave trade is indeed extraordinarily prosperous, but the competition is too much, the Japanese slave trade is not as profitable as imagined, began to play a retreat, this kung fu, an accident went in the wrong direction, drifted to the Korean Peninsula merchant ships and the local Sanhan tribe trade, brought back half a boat of mink, ginseng, really made a small fortune.

So, the big guy followed suit again, and this was the scene when Wang Hou came back, and Liao goods were prevalent for a while.

Fortunately, the Liao trade is not as narrow as the previous Japanese trade, pearls belong to luxury goods, and there is too much competition in the slave trade, according to the scale of the Qingzhou market, it is still far from developing to the point of saturation.

However, these maritime merchants in Qingzhou are not legitimate businessmen! Just like the early Western colonizers, in the name of merchants, they just did some business without capital, and if they could buy it with a knife, they didn't use copper to buy it, and they even robbed and burned it.

Liaodong Taishou, later the grandson of Liaodong Yanguo, sent a letter with particularly strong wording to the Qingzhou Pastoral Mansion, strongly condemning these bandit acts in Qingzhou, and saying that if Wang Hou did not relent, he would personally raise troops to attack him in Linzi City!

"What? Gongsun Kang wants to declare war on me? ”

Listening to Jia Xu's report, in an instant, Wang Hou's pupils were as bright as a twenty-watt light bulb, and he jumped up from the big desk, which made Jia Xu's old guy stunned, and he pouted for a long time.

"Barbarian Star State, it's just the fire of fireflies! Why should the state pastor care? ”

This guy is just moving fast and bragging! Jia Xu didn't feel at ease at all, and even when he received Gongsun Kang's "letter of state", the weather was too cold, he yawned halfway through it and threw the "letter of state" into the brazier to light a fire to keep warm.

Jia Xu didn't know that his father-in-law was worried about other people's acres and three-points of land! I'm worried that there's no reason to go to war! Hearing Jia Xu's disapproval, Wang Hou was immediately "indignant", and knocked on the table in annoyance and shouted.

"Even this firefly fire dares to compete with my bright moon! It's simply unbearable! Uncle can bear it, and aunt can't bear it! Mr. Wenhe, it just so happened that I brought back 40,000 displaced people from Jizhou, and the Taishan army under General Zhang Yan also weighed 30,000. ”

"Build..., build..., build a port? Black Mountain thieves also came to Qingzhou? ”

Jia Xu said this, his brain was a little bigger, a pair of eyes stared at Wang Hou like he saw a dinosaur, and he stared at him for a few seconds without saying a word, just when Wang Hou thought that this old guy was going to beat people, Jia Xu actually took off the crown on his head with a click, and threw it on Wang Hou's table.

"The lower officials are shallow in their studies, and they really can't assist the state pastors! The next official resigns and returns to the rivers and lakes! ”

"Mr. Wenhe, !!"
