~~~~~~

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, Xu Guangqi was a 'thick thigh'.

If you want to be self-reliant and self-sufficient, Lao Xu is obviously the best helper.

It's just that during this period at the beginning of the Apocalypse, Li Yuanqing was lowly and a martial artist, so it was difficult to talk to such a bigwig-level figure.

Although Xu Guangqi is proficient in agricultural affairs and miscellaneous matters, he is a literati after all, which is like a chasm that cannot be bypassed.

And after the incident of Wei Zhongxian, Gonggong Wei used the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites, the bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, and the senior official of the assistant Zhan Shifu to envelop Xu Guangqi.

It's a pity that Lao Xu and Gonggong Wei couldn't urinate in the same pot, and they didn't accept it, and they were attacked by the eunuchs.

Although the little emperor of the Apocalypse had a good sense of Lao Xu, he was difficult to defeat the mouth of the quiet people, so he asked him to 'stay idle with the crown' and returned to his hometown in Songjiang Mansion in Nanjing to recuperate.

If Li Yuanqing is not mistaken, Lao Xu's hometown is the famous magic capital of Shanghai in later generations.

At this time, it is not surprising that he should be recuperating in his hometown in Shanghai.

Xianxianyun: "If you live in a temple, you will worry about its people, and if you are far away from the rivers and lakes, you will worry about its king." ”

Lao Xu is a literati, and to a large extent, he is a backbone literati, and it can be known from his refusal to bow to Houlu, a high-ranking official of Gonggong Wei.

But just like that, Li Yuanqing believes that this is not his original intention.

In my memory, it seems that after Lord Chongzhen ascended the throne, after the extermination of Gonggong Wei and the fall of the eunuchs, Lord Chongzhen recruited Xu Guangqi to serve in the imperial court.

According to his temperament, presumably, it is impossible not to pay attention to the war in Liaodi.

This time, it is impossible not to have heard of his name Li Yuanqing.

Li Yuanqing also has to be classified into the category of eunuchs and bear the protection of Gonggong Wei, but after all, he is a martial artist, and he has not participated much in the court, let alone bad deeds.

On the contrary, Li Yuanqing's exploits in Liaodi are real.

In this way, it is estimated that Li Yuanqing and Xu Guangqi will meet, cooperate ~~~, and even the time to win over is close to maturity.

"It seems that I really want to go to Shanghai for some time. Even if Lao Xu can't come over to help, he must make a comeback. has a good relationship with Lao Xu, and when he arrives at Lord Chongzhen, he can at least have an arm in the court......"

Li Yuanqing slowly exhaled a breath of turbidity, and his mood couldn't help but brighten up all of a sudden.

At present, the difficulties are indeed not small, but they are not insolvable.

Rome was not built in a day.

Changsheng Island is his Li Yuanqing's homeland and base camp. Naturally, it is necessary to spend a lot of energy, manpower, material and financial resources to build it to the best of its ability.

…………

After packing up his thoughts, Li Yuanqing took Niu Gensheng and more than 100 personal soldiers and rode straight to the southern beach camp.

At this time, the originally flat land and beaches have been transformed into a huge 'refugee camp'.

Although the Changsheng Battalion is the most engineer-oriented unit in the world, and it has always done a good job in planning, at this time, standing on the small dirt slope here, looking from a distance, there is a lot of chaos everywhere, and it still looks very messy.

But there's no way around it.

With the lack of congenital conditions, it is impossible to expect that every family is a bungalow.

Shang Lao Liu and Steward Ma had already arrived here and personally commanded the busy work, and Li Yuanqing came over, but they didn't notice it.

Li Yuanqing didn't bother them, but rode around the camp.

The whole camp covers an area of about fifty or sixty acres, which is not small, but it still seems dense and complicated to settle so many people.

From here, to the urban area of Nanxinkou, it is about five or six miles away.

However, due to the limitations of the terrain, there are very few plains, and most of them are mountainous.

Li Yuanqing's original plan was to move these immigrants to the urban area to further promote the prosperity of the urban area, while most of the common people were diverted to the island to form small villages and settlements, and they cultivated and liberated their productive forces.

But now, the land here is still far from enough.

In particular, Li Yuanqing agreed to the matter of the gentry such as the Ren family and the Qi family to build a mansion.

In this era, it is not like later generations, villas and bungalows are built on the hills, which is called scenery.

At this time, the vast majority of mansions had to be built on the plains.

As a result, these mansions can only extend along the urban area to the south and north.

Changsheng Island still has a situation that Li Yuanqing does not want to see, that is, it is 'top-heavy', and most of the population is gathered on the side of Nanxinkou.

But at this time, there is not much good way to do it.

At this time, the wealthy gentry and wealthy families who had been tossed here for a few days also discovered Li Yuanqing's existence, and they rushed up like a swarm of bees to surround Li Yuanqing.

"Li Shuai, you're here. It's up to you to call the shots for us. It's not a place to live. This old bone can't stand such a toss. ”

"Li Shuai, my old Zhang has sold my life to you. You can't leave me alone. ”

"Li Shuai ......"

Although the Ren family's father and son, Qi Mingwei and other big businessmen could still hold their breath and did not dare to face Li Yuanqing's brows, these medium-sized and small rich people did not have so many scruples, and as soon as they saw Li Yuanqing, they began to pour bitter water.

Li Yuanqing hurriedly smiled and waved his hand: "Everyone, don't be impatient. Yuan Qing had already planned about this matter. The promise made to you will never be broken. I have consulted this matter with the Steward of Commerce and the Steward of Horses. From now on, you can go to the mansion on your own. For each acre of land, the official of Changsheng Island only charges one tael of silver. Of course, due to the geographical constraints of the island, the total area of each province cannot exceed 20 acres. You can now arrange the order, so that you can go to the business steward and the horse steward to implement this matter. ”

"Li Shuai is wise. The old man knows that Li Shuai will never leave us alone. ”

"Yes, yes, yes. Li Shuai, we'll go to the queue right away. ”

Finally sent these gentry away, Li Yuanqing couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, raised his eyes to look at the vast camp, and was silent for a long time.

Niu Gensheng suddenly said: "General, are you worried about the land on the island?" ”

Li Yuanqing was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help laughing: "Gensheng, what do you have good ideas?" ”

Niu Gensheng hurriedly smiled and touched the back of his head, "General, there are no good ideas." However, I was thinking, General, although there is not much land on the Nanxinkou side, there is land on the side of the Middle Island and West Island, so why don't you let these old men go there? ”

Li Yuanqing couldn't help but smile, "Your idea is not bad." But it's hard to implement. I'm on Eternal Life Island, and they will try their best to get closer to me, so naturally they won't set up their house so far away. Fields are fine. ”

"Huh?" Niu Gensheng couldn't help but scratch his head with a smile, "General, the vision of humility is still short-sighted. ”

Li Yuanqing smiled, "Gensheng, it's not that you're short-sighted. It's because you haven't experienced this kind of thing, and you won't think about it, so naturally you can't think of it. However, this is a good sign. In the future, whatever you have in mind, you can tell me. You know what? ”

Niu Gensheng couldn't help but be overjoyed, and hurriedly knelt down on one knee and said, "Humble General Xie mentions!" ”

Li Yuanqing smiled, "Let's go, let's go to a few military camps and have a look." ”

"Yes."

…………

Government affairs are cumbersome and complicated, and Li Yuanqing does not want to be involved in too much energy by these trivial matters.

In everything, there are Shang Lao Liu and Steward Ma in front, and Li Yuanqing is only responsible for accepting the effect and pointing out the direction, which can be regarded as making the best use of his talents.

But in terms of military affairs, Li Yuanqing did not dare to slack off in the slightest.

These soldiers are his most solid guarantee.

In one afternoon, Li Yuanqing inspected the garrisons of several thousand corps one after another, chatted with the grassroots soldiers affectionately, cared for their lives, explained their feelings, and pointed out the direction for them.

In the evening, in the 5,000th Corps, there was a 'big battle' with Huang Guoshan and them, and it was almost 11 o'clock, so I was able to return to the official hall tiredly.

However, although people are tired, Li Yuanqing's spirit is excellent.

Not surprisingly, the matter of land zoning has been rampant again.

Those with deep pockets naturally want to draw a good land, the closer to the urban area, the better, and those with small financial resources don't want to fall behind, after all, if it is far away, the urban area of Changsheng Island has no city walls, and it is far from being able to give them a sense of security.

Fortunately, Li Yuanqing was prepared, and after dividing a house of the same size, he drew lots to decide the ownership.

This time, even if someone rows a bad place, they can only blame themselves for their bad luck.

But there are still many people who complain that the lack of walls does not bring enough security.

For this, Li Yuanqing also has a good way.

It's not that he doesn't want to build walls.

After all, in this era, unlike the powerful firepower coverage of later generations, in order to ensure the safety of the city, the city walls were still necessary.

It's just that the matter of the city wall is too invested and too involved, and Li Yuanqing obviously doesn't have so much spare power at this time.

But the appearance of these gentry provided Li Yuanqing with a fertile soil.

Thinking of these complicated things, Li Yuanqing came to the official hall tiredly and sat on his tiger skin throne.

After a tiring day, he also needed time to gather his thoughts.

At this time, although the affairs of Changsheng Island are cumbersome, they are basically on track, and the rest is that it takes time to continue these affairs in an orderly manner.

This kind of thing, even if you are in a hurry, obviously does not have much effect.

At this point, his wives and concubines have basically fallen asleep.

And having already accompanied Zhang Yunniang, Qu Minqiu and Zhang Baozhu, Li Yuanqing finally has the time and opportunity to choose his favorite concubine.

Whose room should I go to?

After thinking about it for a while, the corners of Li Yuanqing's mouth couldn't help but show a warm smile.

Among his wives and concubines, the most favored by him are Wan'er's mother and daughter.

Thinking of Wan'er's pretty face, Li Yuanqing's fatigue suddenly dissipated a lot, and he was about to get up and leave.

At this time, there was a familiar slender figure in the inner house, and he walked over to this side carefully, "The slave has seen the master." ”

It's actually a rainbow girl who hasn't been seen for many days.

Seeing that she was still holding a porcelain bowl with a lid in her hand, Li Yuanqing couldn't help but smile, "Rainbow girl, it's so late, why don't you go to rest?" ”

The rainbow girl's pretty face was slightly red, and she hurriedly said: "Master, slave, slave and maid, slave and maid can't sleep tonight." I went to the kitchen to make some lotus seed soup. Coincidentally, I happened to meet the master. Sir, you can taste it. The slave maid added rock sugar, which can relieve hangover. ”

Why didn't Li Yuanqing understand her careful thoughts? Suddenly smiled faintly, "Ye is a little tired." If you have something, let's go to the inner study and talk about it. ”

The rainbow girl was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but be overjoyed in an instant, and hurriedly said respectfully: "Yes." Master. ”
