Originally, for safety reasons, Li Xiu did not plan to meet Li Chengdao, but at the last moment, he suddenly changed his mind, because he suddenly thought that since Li Chengdao had mastered the route to the Americas, and now that he dared to come for the first time, there would be a second and third time in the future......

And the more times Li Chengdao comes to Datang, the greater the risk of him being discovered by Li Shimin, in case he is really caught by Li Shimin one day, I am afraid that his life will no longer be saved, and then he will be powerless as a gentleman, and may even be implicated by Li Chengdao, after all, he promised Li Shimin that Li Chengdao will never come back after they go to the Americas. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

It was precisely because of the above that Li Xiu decided to meet Li Chengdao, first, to ask him why he came to Datang, and secondly, to remind him of the danger of coming to Datang, in fact, Li Xiu was also a little puzzled at this time, because he felt that with Li Chengdao's cleverness, he should understand the danger better than anyone else, but he came in person, which also made Li Xiu want to see him even more to ask for an understanding.

However, Li Xiu didn't tell anyone about going to see Li Chengdao, even Princess Pingyang was hidden from him, because if one more person knew, he would have to bear the risk of leaking out, so only he and Zhang Shiyi knew about this matter.

Originally, Zhang Shiyi wanted to persuade Li Xiu to give up the idea of seeing Li Chengdao, but Li Xiu had already made a decision, and no one could change it, so in the end he had to agree to arrange for Li Xiu and Li Chengdao to meet, and in order to prevent the news from being revealed, he decided to go to Quanzhou in person, and left Suzhou the next day.

"Don Ma, I and I are going back to Haiyan today, after all, there are many affairs in the county, and I have already discussed the matter of fishing boats with Brother Zhang, and when the workshop sends the fishing boats over, the county government can rent these fishing boats to fishermen to go fishing!" As soon as Zhang Shiyi left, Shangguan Yi also came to say goodbye with a hater.

"It's okay, Haiyan is indeed inseparable from you, maybe in a few days I will also go to Haiyan to take a look and see how the people under your rule live?" Li Xiu also said with a smile at this time.

"Okay, then Hate and I are waiting for the horses in Haiyan!" Shangguan Yi also smiled at this time and said, although the industrial and commercial situation in Haiyan County has not improved for the time being, but under his governance, the security of Haiyan County is much better, and he also vigorously promotes high-yield crops such as sweet potatoes, and it is estimated that this year will allow the people under his rule to solve the most basic food and clothing problems.

At the moment, Li Xiu took his family to send Shangguan Yi and Hate Er out of Suzhou City, Haiyan was originally a county under Suzhou, the distance is not far, and there are official roads to communicate, speaking of which this official road was also built for the convenience of transporting salt, so it is very wide and flat, and the carriage will reach Haiyan in half a day at most.

In the next few days, Li Xiu and his family continued to tour Suzhou, and by the way, they tasted the food from all over the surrounding area, although Zhang Shiyi was not there, but Qu Yi's mother and daughter were there, they had lived in Suzhou for a while, and they were very familiar with the surroundings, so they could also act as guides.

However, although the scenery of Suzhou is beautiful, it doesn't feel fresh when you see more, especially Qi Niang is thinking about her shipbuilding workshop, and she is not interested in visiting the scenery, plus Yuechan's pregnancy month is getting bigger and bigger, and her body is also a little inconvenient, so Li Xiu stopped going out and stayed in Suzhou City with peace of mind, in fact, this is not bad, you can calm down and experience the life of Suzhou City, compared to the busyness of Chang'an, although the business here in Suzhou is also very prosperous, but the life is much more leisurely than Chang'an, and it seems to be more suitable for the elderly. This also made Li Xiu more determined that when he was old in the future, he must move to Suzhou and Hangzhou to bring life.

Sometimes Li is bored, and he will follow Qi Niang to her shipbuilding workshop to have a look, and when he encounters some things that can be improved, he will also give some pointers, but Qi Niang is his best student, and he has applied what he learned from him to shipbuilding, such as standard and accurate weights and measures, assembly-line division of labor, etc., so Li Xiu can not point out much, after all, he does not have much research on shipbuilding.

Compared with Li Xiu, Princess Pingyang and the others have a full life, because after seeing Qu Yi, the four of them just made up a table of mahjong, and as a result, Li Xiu's house can hear the sound of "crackling" mahjong every day, and even Li Xiu has no time to pay attention to it, and he also regrets it a little, worried that Yuechan will take the child in her belly to play mahjong every day?

Li Xiu was really idle and bored that day, and finally thought of going to Haiyan before, so he immediately asked people to prepare horses, and then took a team of guards out of Suzhou City, and at noon, they finally came to Haiyan County.

Haiyan County used to be a rich county, but after the war, Haiyan County was also through several wars, and the city walls were demolished, and after the establishment of the Tang Dynasty, the county had no money to repair it.

So when Li Xiu came to Haiyan County, he found that the city walls of the entire county were still very dilapidated, but some of the more severely damaged places had obviously been repaired, and they could barely keep people out of the city, so that they had to pass through the city gate to enter and exit the county, and the repaired places were very new.

After entering the county seat, there are a lot of pedestrians on the streets, but most of them are shabby, almost everyone has patches on their bodies, the houses and shops on both sides of the street are almost the same as the city walls outside, either crooked and looking like they are about to collapse, or they have collapsed, and they have been built on the original foundation of simple houses, the main roads of the whole county at a glance, all of them are such dilapidated houses or built houses, which are even worse than the shantytowns of later generations.

However, although the buildings in the county town are shabby, and the people's clothes are very shabby, the streets are still clean, and the officials can be seen patrolling at every street corner, once there is any petty theft, these officials will immediately pounce on them like hungry wolves, punching and kicking at every turn, and the people around them not only do not stop it, but some people applaud loudly, and it seems that they are very supportive of the officials.

Li Xiu has no objection to this situation, after all, the Tang Dynasty does not talk about human rights in this era, and in troubled times, a poor and chaotic place like Haiyan must also use this means to restore public security as soon as possible, and public security is the foundation of industrial and commercial prosperity.

After a while, Li Xiu came to Haiyan County, but what he didn't expect was that Shangguanyi was not here, and he didn't even feel that Ha'er was not in the county office, and when he asked about the whereabouts of the two of them, he felt even more incredible.
