Chapter Ninety-Three: The City of Repair

Seeing that the situation was not good, the guards immediately jumped out of the car and went down to catch the man. The pen and fun pavilion www.biquge.info hit a few more times, and the man lowered his head and didn't dare to say a word. Li Xiaowu's carriage immediately rushed over and asked the guards what was going on. The guards passed by, and Li Xiaowu was angry, in his own territory, if there was an accident with the king, he would be finished. Ordered the people to take the man back to the office and interrogate him severely.

Jiang Hexing is also an accident, and there are not many people who know about it here, so why is there a sudden accident?

This time, it was Li Xiaowu who escorted the man and walked in front, and Jiang Hexing followed him to the office office.

Soon after returning to the office, Li Xiaowu came over with a smile and told Jiang Hexing that the person was not a bystander, it was Zhao Qiao, the boss that Jiang Hexing saw in the fish market a few days ago. Jiang Hexing said with a smile: "The name Zhao Qiao was chosen well, but there was an accident on the bridge." ”

Li Xiaowu also laughed and said: "He thought you were a guest officer, and he wanted to ask you about your chance to make a fortune, and whether he was willing to do it with him." Just now, he repeatedly stated that it may be that the sun is shining brightly, and he may have seen the wrong person. ”

Jiang Hexing said: "Invite him over." ”

After a while, Li Xiaowu led people and Zhao Qiao to the conference room of the office office. That Zhao Qiao was not seriously injured, but his nose and face were swollen.

After he sat down, he took a closer look at Jiang Hexing, looked at it for a while, and then stood up abruptly and said, "You, you, you ......" Before the words could be spoken, they had been firmly pressed on the chair.

Jiang Hexing looked at Zhao Qiao on the opposite side and said, "Boss Zhao, I'm not a businessman, I just went to the fish market a few days ago, so I'm afraid I can't make a fortune with you." ”

Zhao Qiao looked at Jiang Hexing sitting there, everyone on the side was standing, his momentum was extraordinary, and he knew that this person was not an ordinary person.

Zhao Qiao's mind turned quickly, and he turned his head and asked Li Xiaowu: "Li Junshou, what should you call this gentleman?" ”

Li Xiaowu didn't answer, and looked at Jiang Hexing hesitantly, and Jiang Hexing nodded at him. Li Xiaowu smiled and said, "This is our Pingzhou Hewang." ”

Zhao Qiao was even more restless, thinking about it, looking at the soldiers around him, he sat there honestly again.

Jiang Hexing looked at Zhao Qiao with a smile and said, "Boss Zhao, I'm sorry for misunderstanding you." ”

Zhao Qiao hurriedly waved his hand and said: "It's too polite to the king, blame me for not knowing Mount Tai." ”

Jiang Hexing saw that the misunderstanding was resolved, stood up, explained to Li Xiaowu, and sent someone to send Zhao Qiao back. Who knows, but Zhao Qiao said: "And the king, I have something to ask for?" ”

Jiang Hexing looked at Zhao Qiao, turned around and sat down again, and asked, "Boss Zhao, what's the matter?" Although. ”

Zhao Qiao tidied up his clothes and stood up, and the guards were not stopping him. He walked up to Jiang Hexing, first gave a salute, and then did it next to Jiang Hexing. Everyone just watched, Jiang Hexing has always been happy.

Zhao Qiao stood in front of Jiang Hexing and said, "Hewang, I want to build a city." ”

Everyone was stunned and looked at Zhao Qiao in surprise. Jiang Hexing also looked directly at Zhao Qiao.

Zhao Qiao brought the teacup from in front of Jiang Hexing, Li Xiaowu was about to attack, Jiang Hexing waved his hand at him.

I saw Zhao Qiao bring the cup over, put his index finger into the cup, dip it in water, and then nodded on the table: "Hewang, this is the summer capital." ”

Jiang Hexing nodded and watched Zhao Qiao draw with his fingers.

I saw him pull a watermark on the table with his index finger, and then said: "From the summer capital to the east, there is a place of seven or eight hundred miles, where the water flows vertically and horizontally, and the river network is dense. There are three large rivers that converge here, one of which comes from the summer capital. The current is the largest, the current is gentle, and the boats of all sizes are unimpeded. There are also two large rivers, both of which flow here from the south, and there are no obstacles for large ships to pass through. ”

As he spoke, Zhao Qiao kept dipping his fingers in the cup and drawing the flow of several large rivers on the table.

Jiang Hexing looked at it for a while and said, "Are you familiar with these rivers?" Have you been there all? ”

Zhao Qiao said: "These rivers are frozen for half of the year, and it is not easy to explore, but I have not run less in the past few years, and I have been there." ”

Jiang He said: "What are you doing in the city?" ”

Zhao Qiao said: "There are a lot of fishery here, and it is a long way to transport it to Jilin City, and there are many local fishery products in Jilin." I want to build a city in the east of this summer capital where these rivers converge, and the local fish can be made into dried fish and salted fish locally, and then take a boat north to Heishui, and go directly east along Heishui, straight to the sea, and then south to Phoenix Island, and we can sell it to all places from Phoenix Island. It's much better than when we're here, pulled out in a wagon. ”

Jiang Hexing said: "This trip is not close, but have you thought that there are many cautious people there, how can you ensure the safety of all merchants in the future?" ”

"The Prudence are not savages, they live by fishing and hunting, and they also come to exchange food and clothing with us, so that we can make the Prudence people become like us. This city can be used as a trading city as well as a defensive city. If something happens, we go into the city, they will not be able to break through our city. ”

"Then Boss Zhao, look, how much does it cost you to repair the city? How long does it take? ”

Zhao Qiao saw that Jiang Hexing did not object, so he slowly told his plan. Originally, he wanted to build a trading market there, something like a fish market, because there was so much fish in the area that many people couldn't sell it at all. The merchants have nothing to do in the past few days, so he thought that he would find enough merchants in Jilin City now and build a market together.

He said that the construction of the city was because he saw the river line here, and he temporarily made a decision, and felt that the construction of the city was only good for Pingzhou, and there was no harm.

Jiang Hexing listened, nodded in agreement, proposed to support Zhao Qiao's plan to build a city, and was willing to send troops to protect it, and the city was exempt from taxes for the first 5 years. After 5 years, it will be charged at 1 percent, and it will be increased to 2 percent in another five years, and finally it will be on par with all parts of Pingzhou as a means to win over merchants.

Zhao Qiao was overjoyed, danced happily, thanked him repeatedly, said goodbye, and ran out of the door, probably to win over the merchants.

That night, Jiang Hexing sent someone to Zhao Qiao's house to explain that he was going to the summer capital in two days, to see if he was willing to go with him. The messenger came back, and Zhao Qiao agreed.

After another two days, Jiang Hexing boarded the big boat by the river, and Zhao Qiao took a few businessmen to get on the big boat together. Waving goodbye to Li Xiaowu and the others on the shore, the big boat pulled up its sails and slowly moved forward.

The ship went faster and faster, and the city of Jilin behind it became farther and smaller. Although the sun shines on the deck, it is not very hot, and the river walks on the deck looking at the scenery on both sides.

The trees were already green, and the leaves were shining golden in the sunlight. In the fields on the shore, many people are still busy sowing seeds, and the seeding machine is pulled by horses, and it seems that it is also running fast, and some people are pulling, and it seems that it is not too difficult. I saw two people hunched in front, with their heads bowed, carrying ropes on their shoulders, and the ropes pulling the seeders behind.

The surface of the water is unusually clear, and the birds are constantly circling on the surface of the water, and from time to time, a small fish comes out of the water. The river line came to be interested, sat on the bow of the boat, and watched the birds fish. He had rarely seen such a clear and turquoise river, only a muddy and dirty sewage river.

Therefore, at this time, he felt particularly relaxed, the wind was blowing on the river, he didn't feel cold, he didn't feel hot, although the wind was not small, especially on the river, maybe the beautiful scenery made him forget the warmth and cold.

The boat was moving very fast, the trees on both sides of the river were rushing backwards quickly, and the water birds in the river were frightened by the big boats from time to time. Jiang Hexing turned his head to look at the crops here, and found that Zhao Qiao didn't know when to stand beside him.

Jiang Hexing said: "Why don't you say hello when you come here?" ”

"I watched and the king, I was fascinated by it, and I didn't dare to disturb. It's just strange that I haven't seen it with the king, it's nothing more than some water birds, which can be seen everywhere. ”

Jiang Hexing sighed and said, "It's common for you, but it's not necessarily normal for others." By the way, why did you choose the name Zhao Qiao? ”

Zhao Qiao smiled honestly, and said a little embarrassed: "My family lives on the edge of a big river in Qingzhou, and it is very inconvenient for people in the village to cross the river. ”

"Then you're a person who grew up by the river, how is the water?"

Zhao Qiao said: "The water is acceptable, I have been catching fish and shrimp in the river since I was a child, and my family makes a living by selling fish." Therefore, the water nature is still in the past, but our river there is not as big as the river here, so I dare not say that I have good water quality. ”

"Oh, I see. Is it the same with those who are with you? ”

Zhao Qiao shook his head and said: "Some of them are, almost very young, and some of them have been dealing with fish since they were very young, and two of them just saw that this business was good, and they only came into contact with these later." But we are all from Qingzhou, I was in Xianwu City very early, and then came to Jilin City. ”

Jiang Hexing nodded, and then asked, "You came to me, is there something wrong?" ”

Zhao Qiao was a little hesitant to say something, but he didn't dare to say it, obviously this was not his idea, maybe a businessman asked him to ask.

Jiang Hexing said: "I see that you are quite bold, why have you become so small now." ”

Zhao Qiao said: "There is a person named Lu Yuan who came with me." He does all kinds of business and has a faΓ§ade in the fish market. He just wanted to ask, he wanted to open up some wasteland north of the Black River, but it was a little too far, and he hoped that He Wang could have some support as much as he supported us in building a city. ”

"This is a good thing, it's colder there, and it's not easy to gather people to open up the wasteland, so let's do it, you tell him, the wasteland north of the Heihe River, whoever reclaims it belongs to whom, and only one percent of the tax will always be charged."

Zhao Qiao, after listening, nodded again and again, and turned away.

As the boat continued to move northward, the greenery on both sides of the bank became thicker and thicker, and the farmland gradually decreased, and the meadows and forests gradually increased.

After walking by water for three days, they arrived at the summer capital, and Jiang Hexing's group dismounted, and those merchants changed a small boat in the summer capital and headed east.
