"Why don't we buy some berths at the dock?" Yan Shangao's eyes rolled and said, "Wasn't it all like this in the past? There are also warehouses, carriages and horses, dragon booms, gallops, etc., and we buy these things, don't we have money? ”

"And we will buy these plans to the people, and the huge rich will complete these constructions, and all the money we buy will be used to continue to build those necessary projects, such as the dockyard, the inspection and inspection department of the city ship, the store, and the gallop road, wouldn't it be good?"

Yan Shangao slapped the table hard and stood up, so that the financial pressure faced by Tangkou could be greatly alleviated, and Tangkou could also develop at a faster speed.

Tian Cailiang rolled his eyes and looked at Yan Shangao, made himself a cup of tea, and sulked.

"You speak, my Master Tian!" Yan Shan sat next to Tian Cailiang with his sleeves high and asked, "Aren't we discussing?" Always hand over to Beijing to ask for money, the household department is very sad, a few days to join us, what else do we do? Don't forget that Fan Sheng is a waiter in the household department. ”

Fan Sheng is a household servant, and he was promoted from the prefect of Jinkou and the secretary of the city, so for the appropriation of funds, of course, it is Jinkou's priority. They asked for money last year, and they were stuck by the household department once, and this time they asked for money again, and it is estimated that it is not as simple as the card process.

The officials in the platform just waited for the courtiers to make mistakes, and then rushed up and feasted. And Yan Shangao has nothing to do with Beijing, for the development of Tangkou, he still has to think about how to solve this financial problem.

Tian Cailiang put down the teacup and said very seriously: "Are you afraid that you will offend the Minister of Household by asking for money in the book, then you are not afraid to buy these plans, and the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty will cut off your head?" Li Xiang is a member of the official family, Li Xiang abolished the purchase a few years ago, don't you know? Nong's brain is broken. ”

When Yan Shangao heard this, his face was full of sadness, and he sighed and said, "How is this good? How is it good? If you want power, if you don't have power, I am a county governor, such a big thing, how can I be a county governor? I want money, but there is no money, but the development of Tangkou is imperative. ”

"The members of the court, I can't afford to offend someone, and I offended a group of people on the last paper, and now there is a shortage of money in the market, and the people even use the original iron money. The wharf can't even get off the official ships, let alone the merchant ships, and the merchants gather in the store every day to ask. ”

"It's really hard for me."

Tian Cailiang looked at Yan Shangao's confused and hesitant face, and suddenly laughed gloatingly.

"Laugh what a laugh! After three years, this seat is yours! What will you do then?! Yan Shangao slapped the table hard.

"I'm going to take the Lin'an official exam in a few days, you have a headache with this problem, I thought it was a fat shortage, but now it seems that it is a hot potato, everyone is staring, you are not having a good time. Ha ha. Tian Cailiang sipped his tea indifferently, he was ready to leave this place of right and wrong.

Tangkou is now very dangerous, because of the frequent trade, the people coming and going are very complicated, if the plague is in Tangkou if there is a little accident, Yan Shangao will be in danger of being pulled down in Beijing, but the sea trade policy of the Great Song Dynasty is the national policy of the general direction and strategy, the wealth of half the world, and the prospect of Wanze's department store, even the Great Song Emperor DìDū coveted three feet, he Yan Shan Gao can not say no.

"Please, Liangzhejiang Road, pass through He Li, what do you think? Let him go and go. Do you think it will work? Yan Shangao asked with a flash of inspiration.

Tian Cailiang waved his hand and said: "When the official family made Tangkou a county, they made it clear that Tangkou, Jinkou, and Lingnan go directly to Tianting, have you forgotten this stubble?" The economic envoy of the two Zhejiang roads, why should you be in charge of Tangkou County? You were happy at the beginning, but now you're okay, right? He Xianggong may not think what he thinks of you. You are painting the land and ruling it, it was originally the fat of Liangzhejiang Road, and the cooked duck flew, what do you expect Xianggong to help you? ”

"And the merchant ships going to Lin'an have to declare customs in Tangkou, you are stuck in the sea trade of the two Zhejiang roads, He Xianggong may not know how to talk to you in his heart, and help you, do your spring and autumn dreams!"

When Yan Shangao heard Tian Cailiang say this, his eyes were closed, and he kicked his feet and said, "I'm not alive!" I'm dead! ”

"Yan Zhi County, Master Tian, He Li, the two Zhejiang scriptures have arrived at Tangkou, and the fast ride is outside the door." A county official rushed over, rushed into the central hall, and said breathlessly.

Yan Shan stood up violently, looking at Tian Cailiang, the expression on his face was mixed, what should be coming is still coming.

Tian Cailiang looked at the bloodshot in Yan Shangao's eyes and the hairline that had gradually receded, knowing that he was really exhausted recently, but no matter how tired he was, this Tangkou County was better than a day by day.

As long as the plague does not make trouble in Tangkou, he has been evaluated every three years, and his promotion to the prefect has become a sure thing, and his future, career, and sense of achievement are all bright and open, how can he not steal fun in the bed?

What Yan Shangao was most afraid of was being parachuted into the air to pick peaches, taking away the harvest that belonged to him, day and night, and finally came.

"Please, please, prepare, the tea should be good, and then go to Shangshan Lou to order a table of good wine and food, and invite a few young people from Fenglou. Prepare some local products from our Tangkou, and move the one-foot-long red coral from the treasury last time and count it into my account. Yan Shan sighed and said to the officials.

Yan Shangao kept pacing in the middle hall and asked, "Does He Xianggong have any other hobbies?" ”

The smile on Tian Cailiang's face was paused, he looked at Yan Shangao and said: "You unkempt and dirty appearance, go to see He Xianggong, no matter how much you prepare, He Xianggong will only think that you have opinions about people, go take a bath and change clothes, I will prepare." He Xianggong has no preferences, he has an excellent stroke review, and he is a person who does great things, and we will talk to him again, don't mess with yourself. ”

Do what you like.

Tian Cailiang pondered for a long time when Yan Shangao bathed and changed clothes, and then made up his mind.

"He Xianggong, there is the Tangkou Lighthouse, about five zhang high, the top of the tower is equipped with the glass sent by the Ordnance Academy, the glass soaked in mercury, I don't know what the principle is, at night, the light of the lighthouse, can be seen in more than 60 miles away, if you want to say that it is not bright, it can be seen. It's really magical, there are three such lighthouses outside Tangkou. ”

"Some time ago, there were three thistle cannons and more than a dozen Fujian naval troops stationed there, which could also be used for lookout." Yan Shangao accompanied He Li on a land flying boat and pointed to the lighthouse on the island not far from Tangkou and said.

This is Tian Cailiang's arrangement, traveling around Tangkou.
