Regarding the emperor's words about sharpening his sword, Meng Yi didn't say much. But the meaning is sufficient.

Chen Sheng realized that the emperor had more than one knife to sharpen. Whether he is the knife that the emperor wants to sharpen or the whetstone that sharpens the knife is still uncertain.

Chen Sheng exhaled a deep breath of turbidity, and it was already clear that Minzhong County in the future would be a very lively place.

Two days later, Meng Yi and Fusu said goodbye to Chen Sheng together, led his subordinates to leave Minzhong County, and embarked on the way back to Xianyang. One day, we will definitely be able to see each other in Xianyang, and we hope that day will come sooner. Be bold and let go here, you don't have to pay too much attention to Xianyang. ”

Chen Shengning nodded solemnly and thanked Fusu for his words. With Fusu's words, he felt a little more confident in his heart. In Fusu's few simple words, the meaning is very rich, and the promise in it needs to be fulfilled at a very high price, although Chen Sheng is not particularly clear, he can also understand the heaviness.

"Childe, rest assured, Minzhong County will be the firmest cornerstone of Childe." At such a time, Chen Sheng also knew how to express his loyalty appropriately.

The two smart people smiled heartily, and everything was silent.

……

Sending off Fusu and Meng Yi, Ling Suyun also told Chen Sheng to leave, and the timetable for Minzhong has arrived. Following Chen Sheng in Minzhong for a period of time, the relationship between the two became more subtle. However, Ling Suyun has a resolute personality and does not like to show her emotions like the children of the small family. She gave Chen Sheng more substantial support. Ling Suyun had been vaguely reminded by Meng Yi before, saying that Chen Sheng might develop in central Fujian. She naturally understood the meaning, and she mobilized a lot of resources, including getting some accurate information from Ba Qing, the head of the family who was already in Xianyang, and determined that Chen Sheng might become one of the candidates for the county guard of Minzhong County.

Because of this judgment, Ling Suyun made a series of decisions without hesitation. Allocate a large amount of the family's resources to Minzhong County, and invest the family's wealth in Chen Sheng.

The geographical location of Minzhong County is bordered by the former Chu State and Qi State, so it has more or less been infected by the atmosphere of Central Plains civilization. But this is far from enough, Chen Sheng wants to develop well in this place, the possibility is not great, because in this barbaric land of poor mountains and bad waters, it is already a very headache to attribute these indigenous Yue people to Wanghua, as for development, it is impossible without sufficient financial investment.

As one of the richest families in the Qin State, Ling Suyun naturally knew that the Great Qin Empire would not have financial investment in Minzhong County at all. The whole country is still a huge war machine, and war is like a giant leech, sucking on the people of the empire. Minzhong County will soon be included in this system as well. There is only the possibility of being squeezed by the empire. Except for Ling Suyun, no one is willing to throw money at this place, most of those discerning businessmen and tycoons will not be willing to invest in this place where the war has just subsided, the repetition of the indigenous Yue people is extremely strong, and there are rebellious behaviors from time to time, the imperial court is not afraid of these sporadic fires, but these unstable factors are a huge disaster for businessmen, which is enough to discourage them.

Even if it was Ling Suyun, when he proposed this plan to the family, the elders of the Ling family collectively opposed Ling Suyun's bold and crazy decision. Fortunately, the patriarch Ba Qing still firmly supported Ling Suyun's behavior, so a special fund of 200,000 gold will soon be transported to Minzhong County, partly to support Chen Sheng's finances, and partly to support the Ling family's investment in Minzhong County's business. In addition, the Ling family also purchased a large number of farm tools and seeds and donated them to Minzhong County free of charge.

Ling Suyun's actions made Chen Sheng very grateful. After serving as the county guard, Chen Sheng knew how poor this Minzhong County was. The original Dongou King and Minyue King Wuzhu were shaking, one was arrogant and lascivious, profligate, the other was reckless, and wars were frequent. Both of these guys are big money burners, so they don't have much wealth left behind at all. The finances of the local governments are simply in deficit. In addition, in order to appease the people of Minzhong County, the emperor did not kill Wu Zhu and Su Shao, and also retained their respective palace wealth. Chen Sheng's only wealth was 300,000 stone of grain. This was given to him by Fusu and Meng Yi from the military rations they found. Such a little thing can't support the expenses of Minzhong County for half a year.

Therefore, Ling Suyun's support is particularly important at this time. But Chen Sheng still knows that even with Ling Suyun's support, it is a drop in the bucket. And Ling Suyun's return to the Ling family in Bajun was also to win greater support for Chen Sheng.

Except for the county supervisor Han Dongqing, the rest of the important officials of Minzhong County have not yet arrived. Xianyang to Dongye is a very difficult road to take, coupled with some mentality, the arrival of Li Shen and Ying Huo is even more distant. Chen Sheng naturally didn't wait for these guys to arrive before starting to work, since the day he was appointed as the county guard of Minzhong County, he had already begun to work hard.

First, he wrote a memo to the emperor. After thanking the emperor for his kindness, Chen Sheng also expounded his own strategies for governing Fujian, which were partly conceived by him, and partly suggested by Fusu, Meng Yi, and Ling Suyun. He also euphemistically put forward his own requirements, the land of Fujian, in addition to heavy agriculture, can not suppress business.

Chen Sheng's reason is very good, Fujian is mostly mountainous, and the agricultural output is not high, so it is impossible to give full play to the local characteristics. The local area has many resources such as minerals and tea, and the seaside can develop the salt industry, which can be transformed into great wealth of the empire. These are abundant business resources.

After this recital was reported, Chen Sheng was a little apprehensive in his heart. The emperor is a paranoid when it comes to sticking to Qin's laws, can he listen to his own rebellious words? For this reason, Chen Sheng also wrote a secret letter to the teacher and asked the teacher to help find a way. However, thinking about this fundamental thing about the country, the emperor may not be able to listen to the teacher's opinion.

But Chen Sheng knew that unless the emperor removed him from his post as county guard, he would still implement such a policy.

When Ling Suyun left Minzhong County, the first batch of decrees of Minzhong County was also officially issued.

The first batch of decrees did not contradict the Qin law too much, in fact, this batch of decrees was still the first batch of decrees when Shang Ying implemented the law reform in the Qin State. The current Minzhong County actually has too many similarities with the Qin State when the Shang Dynasty reform was not implemented more than a hundred years ago.
