Chapter Seventy-Six: The Crucian Carp Crossing the River

Jiangzhou, Huangkou, the new Jiangzhou assassin Xu Shao, led the state and county officials to gather at the wharf outside the city, ready to meet Shangguan, the new Hongzhou Governor took the official ship at this time just appeared on the upstream river, taking advantage of this free time, Xu Shao did not forget to explain some important matters.

The king of Xiyang led the troops to fight in the Huaishui area, and the grain and grass transported from Huangzhou were more than half of the water through Jiangzhou in the south of the Yangtze River, and then arrived in Jinzhou, Jiangbei and then transferred to the Lujiang River by land, and then to the army of the king of Xiyang, so the port of Huangkou was an important transit port.

At the same time, the materials of the states under the jurisdiction of the Hongzhou Governor's Office also have to enter the Yangtze River through the mouth of Poyang Lake, either to support the army of the king of Xiyang in the east, or to enter the Shannan region in the west, and a large number of fleets have to pass through the wharves under the jurisdiction of Xunyang County, Jiangzhou, so Xu Shao, who is the assassin of Jiangzhou, has a heavy burden on his shoulders.

At this moment, near the mouth of the river, a large number of ships are all over the river, there are north-south courses, there are east-west courses, dense ships are like carp crossing the river, from a distance people can't help but feel emotional.

The Jiangzhou region, which was a war-torn place last year, is now not only recovering as before, but also developing with a more vigorous momentum, as evidenced by the countless ships sailing on the river.

It was an unprecedented spectacle, as more than half of the ships that crossed the river were merchant ships, loaded with supplies, departing from different places of departure and heading to different destinations.

The boats going out from the mouth of Poyang Lake are loaded with tea and porcelain from Fuliang, grain and various outputs from the coastal areas of Poyang Lake, as well as sea salt and special products from Lingbiao Guangzhou, among which Lingbiao sea salt is the most sought-after.

Nowadays, there is no reliable salt source in the area controlled by the Zhou State (Yuwen Clan), although the imperial court is using troops against Shu, but it is unknown when it can get the well salt from Shu, so the sea salt from the distant ridge has become the most sought-after material.

The endless flow of officials and civilians set off from Panyu, Guangzhou, carrying a large amount of sea salt to the north, crossing the Dayu Ridge, and it is said that the official road is congested.

After the Great Yuling, the official salt was loaded into Poyang Lake through the Ganshui River and then entered the Yangtze River, and then transported to Shannan and Guanzhong areas.

The salt shipped from Guangzhou is snow-white refined salt, which is very pure, and must not become coarse salt mixed with a large amount of sediment when it arrives in Guanzhong, and Xu Shao can't control it in other places, but he must ensure that when the official salt passes through Jiangzhou, the sampling results are qualified and the quantity must be matched.

In addition, it is necessary to tax the merchant ship, and the tax that should be collected must be collected, neither more nor less, Xu Shao, as a assassin, will never let his subordinates deceive and conceal his subordinates, so as to avoid those officials asking for bribes and bribes, and making a big deal of benefits under the name of a clever name, but the infamy makes him a senior official to carry it.

After some ear and face, the official ship of the new chief manager docked at the dock, Xu Shao dressed up and led the adjutants to greet the arrival of the officials.

After the Zhou State captured Chen's Jiangzhou last year, it quickly gained a foothold in Jiangzhou, and the Son of Heaven rebuilt the imperial court, and recently reorganized the administrative district of Jiangzhou, splitting Jiangzhou, which originally had ten counties, and then establishing the Hongzhou Governor's Office for jurisdiction.

Hongzhou Governor's Office, located in Hongzhou Nanchang, the Governor's Office has jurisdiction over seven prefectures, which are Hongzhou, Jiangzhou, Raozhou, Yuanzhou, Fuzhou, Jizhou, and Qianzhou.

The southernmost state under the jurisdiction of the Hongzhou Governor's Mansion is Qianzhou, which is located at the northern foot of the Great Yuling Mountains, which is the original Nankang County of Jiangzhou, and the northernmost state under the jurisdiction of the Governor's Mansion is Jiangzhou, which is located on the south bank of the Yangtze River and is the original Xunyang County of Jiangzhou.

Quan Xunyang County Shou Xu Shao, promoted to Jiangzhou Assassin History, and the post of governor of Hongzhou, the Son of Heaven appointed Wei Huan, who was born in Jingzhao Wei, to serve, Wei Xun Shimu, his brother Wei Shikang is now in an important position in the Chang'an Imperial Court, and Xiyang Wang Yuwenwen is a son and daughter.

Wei Huan, who is nearly sixty years old, met with the Jiangzhou officials who came to greet him one by one, he came all the way from Chang'an to Hongzhou to take office, all the way to the dust, but the spirit is not bad, after all, most of the Jingzhao Wei's children have military experience, although Wei Wei is older, his body is very tough.

Although Wei Wei is the first time to see Xu Shao, but the other party's name has already been heard, Xu Shao's father Xu Faguang is now also in an important position in the imperial court, this time Wei Wei served as the governor of Hongzhou, and Xu Shao, who was promoted to the history of Jiangzhou, was under his jurisdiction, so when Xu Faguang was in Chang'an, he did not forget to say hello to Wei Xun.

Looking at the young Xu Shao, Wei Xun twisted his beard and said with a smile: "Xu Yuanjun, when the official was in Chang'an, Ling Zun told the official many times, saying that Xu Yuanjun would be strictly assessed, which made the official very difficult." ”

Xu Shao said with a straight face when he heard this: "What my father said is very true, and I also ask the general manager to strictly assess it, and the lower officials will definitely fulfill their duties and benefit the people in the jurisdiction..."

"Hahaha, the Son of Heaven is right, Xu Yuanjun is really a young man, Ning Shejing is not an official, but also has to experience in the state and county, Xu Gong really has a good son."

Wei Xun, who was born in Jingzhao Webster, has never seen any big scenes, and he said so much in public at this time, just to raise Xu Shao's value and let the adjutants not think of bullying young people.

The way of officialdom is to facilitate each other, Wei Wei is not deliberately currying favor with Xu Faguang and Xu Shao's father and son, but to be a favor and make a good fate, and in the future, his son will be tempered in the officialdom, and he will be able to 'get more help'.

A young man who followed Wei Xun looked at Xu Shao with interest, this young man is Wei Xie, the son of Wei Xun, who went to Hongzhou with his father this time, and by the way, he has experienced experience, and the imperial court has now recruited many people to be officials, and Wei Xie is also one of them.

Jingzhao Wei, in the Western Wei Dynasty, Zhou State is a first-class magnates, but after the Zhou and Sui rivalry, with the fall of the Sui State and once silent, and now, Jingzhao Wei finally seized the opportunity, many clansmen re-entered the career.

Now that the situation in the Chang'an Imperial Court is getting better and better, Wei Xie is also full of ambition, but he feels that he is still too far behind Xu Shao.

It is said that when the Son of Heaven was in Shannan, he originally planned to appoint Xu Shao as a doctor in the internal history, but Xu Shao refused on the grounds that he was too young and his resume was still shallow, and insisted on practicing in the state and county for a few more years.

Later, the Son of Heaven awarded him the history of Jiangzhou Thorn, and he first experienced a few years of training before being appointed.

Internal history, in charge of the edict, participate in confidential information, although the rank is not high, but he is a close minister of the Son of Heaven, with great power, and can decide the success or failure of things at critical moments.

In the second year of the elephant, Emperor Tianyuan died, and it was Zheng Yi of the internal history and Liu Fangjiao of the imperial government who handed over the power to Yang Jian, a foreign relative, which led to the bloody storm later, which shows the importance of internal history and imperial official positions.

Therefore, being appointed by the Son of Heaven as an internal historian or imperial ruler is something that many people dream of.

Wei Xie thought that if he got this opportunity, he would never refuse it, but Xu Shao's choice surprised him, and he couldn't help but admire it very much.

The Chang'an Imperial Court recruited Yingyan as an official, and the number of people waiting to be officials can be described as a carp crossing the river, and as a result, Xu Shao, who is bent on training in the state and county, is very dazzling.

Of course, there is another young official who is also the same, that is, Hao Wubo, who has just been promoted to the governor of Huangzhou, who also politely refused the promotion of the Son of Heaven, and also asked for a few more years of training in the state and county, instead of going to Chang'an to become a Beijing official.

The Son of Heaven in Chang'an still remembers these two young people, and it seems that they will be reused in the future, and being able to have such a status in the heart of the Son of Heaven shows that Xu and Hao have their own real talents and hard work, and Wei Xie feels ashamed of this.

But he was still young and knew he had a chance in the future.

The wind is strong on the riverside, Xu Shao leads the way in front, leading Shangguan to the city, Wei Wei will rest in Huangkou today, and tomorrow he will go to Nanchang, Hongzhou by land, where he will formally meet with the assassins of the prefectures under his jurisdiction and begin to perform his duties as a governor.

Zhou Guo changed the administrative division of the Jiangzhou region with such fanfare, which means that this place will never be "returned" to Chen Guo, Wei Huan, the first governor of Hongzhou, and then a series of layouts will be launched for this.

At the same time, it is necessary to prepare for the Xiyang King's strategy of Lianghuai.
