However, Zhao Huan did not adopt Li Gang's proposal, as a traverser of later generations, a young man born in the era of national integration, Zhao Huan did not have such a deep nationalist complex as Li Gang.

This is 30,000 captives, killing them like this, it is really a bit of a waste, if you use them well, these 30,000 captives will become 30,000 laborers, Zhao Huan suddenly had a very bold idea.

"I have an immature idea about these 30,000 captives, let's discuss it together." Zhao Huan said: "Pit and kill prisoners, after all, it is not my style of acting in the state of etiquette of the Great Song Dynasty, but I can't let these soldiers leave like this, so I thought of a compromise solution, turned these prisoners into slaves, set up Songjiang County under the sea of Suzhou Prefecture, moved these 30,000 captives to Songjiang, divided and conquered, reclaimed land, and expanded the territory." ”

"Your Majesty, the land of my Central Plains is fertile for thousands of miles, and the land is vast and rich, why bother to reclaim such barren land?" Li Gangjin said.

The loyal ministers didn't speak, but that meant that they were also doubting Zhao Huan's decision, in their opinion, the Great Song Dynasty was a vast land, and it was completely self-sufficient on land, so why bother to spend so much effort to reclaim the land.

Zhao Huan wanted to point to the nose of this group of old guys and reprimanded: With the way you look now, you really think that it looks like the Tang Dynasty, responding to all calls, and many Fanbang junior brothers follow, when will this arrogant mentality be changed. A hundred years from now, on the other side of the world, there will be a small Western country that will start the industrial revolution, and then it will open the country with strong ships and cannons, and the shame at that time will be a hundred times more painful than being oppressed by the gold country today.

However, this kind of thinking Zhao Huan can only think about it in his heart, if he tells this group of people now that the earth is round, I believe that they will definitely be regarded as monsters, the sky is round and the place has been a fixed cognition for thousands of years, if you want to change, it will not be completed overnight.

"Putting 30,000 captives in Songjiang, which is convenient for the officials, with their backs to the sea, even if they cut off the idea of these people escaping and stay away from the center, even if this group of people really messes up, it will not cause any major trouble." Zhao Huan said lightly, no one doubts this reason, and they are still greeting Zhao Huan's plan.

However, who to let be the county magistrate of Songjiang County next is a matter that Zhao Huan needs to think about.

Zhao Huan searched his stomach and thought about many people in his mind, and finally thought of a suitable candidate - Hu Quan.

As one of the four ministers of Zhongxing in the Southern Song Dynasty, Hu Quan's talent does not need to be doubted, and the reason why Zhao Huan wants to use Hu Quan is that Hu Quan at this time is still a young man about twenty years old.

So, Hu Quan was recruited into the palace in a daze, and had his first contact with Zhao Huan.

For Zhao Huan's summons, Hu Quan was a little confused, at this time, although he was very talented, but he was not known to the world, according to the trajectory of history, he should still be in the second place two years later.

"You're Hu Quan?" Zhao Huan looked at Hu Quan in front of him and asked.

Hu Quan faced Zhao Huan, looked a little restrained, and replied: "It's the grass people, I don't know what the official family called the grass people?" ”

Zhao Huan's first impression of Hu Quan was quite good, and after a few simple exchanges, Zhao Huan found that Hu Quan was a very talented person, so he asked tentatively: "If you were given a county to govern, what would you do?" ”

This question is a bit abrupt for Hu Quan, after all, Hu Quan at this time is just a common man who has not yet reached the first, Hu Quan is a smart person, he knows that the quality of the answer at this time may affect his future career, took a deep breath, and said: "As the parent official of a county, only when the politics is clear, can the upward and downward effects, the people's customs are upright, and finally achieve political harmony." ”

Zhao Huan nodded and said: "That's right, although the county order is small, but the responsibility on the body is not small, and the body bears the fate of the entire county people, if I hand over a county to you to take care of now, can you take care of it?" ”

After a pause, Zhao Huan continued: "You don't have to rush to answer me, I know that you are talented, and you may not pay attention to a small county order, and I can tell you that the county I told you is a barren land, and everything is waiting to be rebuilt, if you serve as the county commander of this place, everything will have to start from scratch." ”

Hu Quan heard what Zhao Huan said, and the whole person fell into contemplation, just as Zhao Huan said, Hu Quan is a talented person, for the county order, an official the size of a sesame grain, he would never have paid attention to it before, but now this county order is proposed by Zhao Huan, Hu Quan is a little hesitant.

Zhao Huan didn't urge Hu Quan, just waited patiently, and said: "If you have any concerns, you can also raise them with me, and you don't need to have any psychological burden, even if you refuse, I won't blame you." ”

Hu Quan took a deep breath, raised his head and said, "I don't know what county Your Majesty is talking about, what county is it?" ”

"It's a county under Suzhou Prefecture, Songjiang County." Zhao Huan replied.

Hu Quan was a little confused, and Zhao Huan quickly explained to him, "It's a newly established county, just like I told you, after you take office, everything starts from scratch." ”

All of this is an unknown challenge, and whether or not to agree to it is even more of a challenge for Hu Quan.

"Your Majesty!" I don't know how much time passed, at least for Hu Quan, it was as long as a century, Hu Quan finally mustered up the courage and said to Zhao Huan: "There is a long way to go, and the minister is willing to give it a try!" ”

"Good!" Zhao Huan applauded Hu Quan and said: "Qing don't have any psychological burden, I decided to set up Songjiang County as a special administrative county, although it is located in Suzhou Prefecture, but it is not under the jurisdiction of Suzhou Prefecture, all government decrees are under the control of the six departments, you have any matters, you can also ask me for advice at any time, I will be your most solid backing!" ”

Hearing Zhao Huan say this, Hu Quan couldn't help but get excited in his heart, if this is really the case, although Songjiang is a county, but in fact, the level is higher than a state capital, especially when he can report directly to Zhao Huan, this kind of treatment can only be enjoyed by these officials of the six ministries.

It is said that wealth is in danger, it seems that this time he really made the right bet, Hu Quan couldn't help but feel ecstatic in his heart.
