Speaking of this, Fang Zhiwen felt very ashamed, he lived in the era of extremely convenient transportation for more than 20 years, and the city he went to counted more than with a slap, but in this era of extremely inconvenient transportation, Fang Zhiwen sat on horseback, spent several months, and circled half of China, this situation is really incomprehensible!

Tianjin should not be the current Qinghe estuary, the Haihe River in this era seems to be wider, this is what the old man Lin said, he thinks that the Tianjin of later generations is in a more easterly place, but now Tianjin is still a silt tidal flat, of course, these words are what he said to Xiangxiang, Fang Zhiwen did not know.

Along the coast of the Bohai Sea, it took five days for Fang Zhiwen and his entourage to walk from Linzi to the mouth of the Qinghe River, mainly because this road was quite desolate, which made Fang Zhiwen extremely puzzled at the beginning, on the plain after leaving the Leling Kingdom, there was no decent city, except for the scattered farms, which was nearly more than 800 miles away, and there was only one third-level town Zhangwu, that is, the small county town of the system.

After a trip to the site, I found that due to the diversion of the Yellow River estuary, most of the coastal areas of Bohai County were vast tidal flats that could not be used, so it caused a sparsely populated situation.

Even if the geographical location of Bohai County is good, there is no system city as a fulcrum, the player's power still can't develop, if you really want to develop here, then you have to occupy the mountain as the king, so, in Bohai County, large and small horse thieves and bandits are rampant, there are wild monsters brushed out of the system, there are also local NPCs pretending to be bandits, and there are many alien forces, and there are many players who like to play bandits.

It's just that bandits are different from lord players, lord players have full development prospects, but bandits can't, there are too many places where the development of cottages is restricted, and it is difficult to go further after the development of large cottages, unless someone with an official identity comes to incorporate the cottage into villages and towns.

Fang Zhiwen used his official identity to build a village in Linxi at that time, because he did not have the power to incorporate at that time, but it was still possible to establish it.

That's why Fang Zhiwen thought of exercising this power to establish a guard village outside the territory, and then took advantage of this loophole to transfer the complete village to Xiangxiang, completing the gorgeous transformation of Linxi City, which has to be said to be an act of exploiting loopholes, but I don't know if this kind of behavior can be implemented in the future.

Speaking of the Qinghe estuary, there was originally a systematic fishing village here, which provided convenience for the Zhen family to establish a stronghold here, and another point is that the carrying capacity of the Qinghe River is still very good, Fang Zhiwen also once thought about whether to develop the canal system in later generations in advance, and the water resources of this era seem to be much better than those of later generations, this idea has also been strongly supported by Lin Lao, of course, even if it is to be implemented, it is the Zhen family to encourage those big families to do it, and it has little to do with Fang Zhiwen.

The people of the Zhen family are faster than Fang Zhiwen and his party, it is said that they came by boat from the Qing River, because the manpower is relatively in place, when Fang Zhiwen and they arrived at the mouth of the Qing River, the village on the south bank has been upgraded to a first-class town, and this town was basically bought by the Zhen family and belongs to the Zhen family's sphere of influence.

In this era, the family's energy and human resources are very powerful, not to mention others, it is the Mi Zhu Mi family who took refuge in Liu Ranpao, and sponsored 20,000 strong men to Liu Ranpao at one time, this number is scary! What's more, the Zhen family, which is more cattle than the Mi family, more than ninety percent of the population of Qinghekou Town are members of the Zhen family.

Seeing the tens of thousands of people in full swing, Fang Zhiwen knew that the Zhen family had confirmed the future of maritime trade and was going to make every effort to build their own maritime trade routes, of course, or this was also the idea of the Jizhou clan, but now the Zhen family's actions are extremely fast, and they have firmly grasped the Qinghekou in their hands before the Jizhou clan has fully reacted, but this is far from enough.

"This is my younger brother Yao, this is Lord Fengning Taishoufang."

Fang Zhiwen looked at the young man in front of him who was only as high as his nose, and couldn't help muttering a little in his heart, the civil officials around him seemed to be young children, and a large number of child laborers were appointed!

Zhen Yao looked curiously at the tall general in front of him, who was a little stupid, and the original nervousness in his heart gradually disappeared, it seems that his lord should not be the kind of person who is difficult to get along with, although from Zhen Yan's letter, he already knew Fang Zhiwen's general temperament, but it was only after meeting him that he really put his mind at ease.

"Yao has seen the lord." Zhen Yao obediently stepped forward to give Fang Zhiwen a meticulous salute, looking at Zhen Yan's serious expression, Fang Zhiwen knew that this younger brother had been oppressed by his brother for a long time, but only at these times did Zhen Yan show a very strong side.

'Ding, congratulations on gaining Zhen Yao's allegiance, +5 Fame, and now Fame. ’

"No need to be polite, what a young man! I still need your help in the future, come, go in and talk. ”

"Yao will do his best to assist the lord1

"Haha, good, good."

Fang Zhiwen was not in a hurry to see Zhen Yao's attributes, he believed that this son from a famous family would not be worse than Sun Ming and others, with the strength of the Zhen family, a talent could be piled up, not to mention that this Zhen Yao was a smart and obedient child at first glance.

With Zhen Yao's introduction, Fang Zhiwen knew that the person in charge here was actually Zhen Yao, although there were many old servants and shopkeepers of the Zhen family to help him, but he could establish Qinghekou smoothly, and everything seemed to be in order, I can't help but say that this Zhen Yao has some real skills.

Fang Zhiwen couldn't help but be very interested in this child laborer who was about the same age as Tian Chou.

"Yes, Zhen Xun couldn't imagine that he would be able to take charge on his own at a young age, this Qinghekou is your touchstone! Not bad 1

"The lord has saved a lot, in fact, this is also because of the help of many old people, and these people are all Zhuang of the Zhen family, so they can be like an arm, and Yao Yao does not dare to monopolize the credit."

"Well, not arrogant! By the way, Zhen Yao doesn't have words? ”

"Yao has not yet reached the crown, and the elders have not given words."

"Oh, it's me who was rude, Zhen family, abide by etiquette."

Fang Zhiwen was a little embarrassed, at this time, there were indeed many people who had words at a very young age, but none of these people were small families, and the wealthy families would only be given words by the elders after they had a crown ceremony, Fang Zhiwen was a little offended by asking this.

Zhen Ergongzi smiled mildly and slightly playfully, he knew Fang Zhiwen very well, a person who was born as a soldier, and his understanding of the world and etiquette was very limited, this is the weakness that Zhen Ergongzi found in Fang Zhiwen is not a weakness.

However, Zhen Er Gongzi didn't care about this, as a member of the clan, he already had a deep understanding of the darkness and arrogance of the clan, so if Fang Zhiwen was also such a person, he might distance himself from Fang Zhiwen.

"Hehe, it's okay, these things don't mean anything, it's just a custom."

Fang Zhiwen smiled slightly embarrassedly, put aside this matter, and glanced at everyone present with a straight expression, now there are Xiangxiang, Zhen Yan, Zhen Yao, Yuwen Boyan and Fang Zhiwen, Old Man Lin was all excluded from this meeting.

After sorting out his thoughts, Fang Zhiwen slowly said: "Zhen Gongzi, Qinghekou is the starting point of the sea route, and it is also the essence of the Qinghe route, the Zhen family manages the wealth for the Jizhou family, this Qinghekou will inevitably attract the attention of the Jizhou family in the future, how does the Zhen family want to keep the control of Qinghekou?" ”

Zhen Yan was stunned for a moment, frowned, Zhen Yao looked at the lord, he had also thought about this issue for a long time, it was actually very difficult for the Zhen family to monopolize Qinghekou, but it was not difficult to maintain a certain position in Qinghekou, but he also understood that a position without strength was actually like a tower of gravel, which would fall down when touched.

But how to have this strength, to put it bluntly, it is the army, the Zhen family has always tried to seek an official identity, but it has always been interfered with, the purpose of this is self-evident, therefore, in addition to a certain scale of private army, the Zhen family has no strength that can be put on the bright side, that is to say, as long as the opponent exerts official pressure, whether it is forcibly occupied, or slowly encroached, Qinghekou will be someone else's wedding dress sooner or later.

Zhen Ergongzi couldn't figure it out, shook his head in distress, and suddenly saw the corners of Fang Zhiwen's smiling mouth, and couldn't help but suddenly realize: "I'm stupid, I don't know how to keep Qinghekou, but Lord Fang must have prejudices, can you say that you can refer to it?" ”

Fang Zhiwen smiled, glanced at Zhou Tai meaningfully, and said: "Zhen Gongzi will find a shortcut, yes, I have some plans, today I want to discuss with you to see if this method is feasible." ”

Zhen Yao looked at the lord with some excited expectation, Zhen Ergongzi smiled proudly, and Xiangxiang glanced at everyone with a little arrogance, as if she was the one who had the idea instead of Fang Zhiwen.

"My lord, please speak, I'll listen to you, hehe." Zhen Er Gongzi smiled and arched his hand.

"Actually, this matter is very simple, the only way to keep Qinghekou is to build an army, I really can't think of any other force besides the army that can make Qinghekou firmly controlled under the Zhen family."

Zhen Yao blinked in confusion and asked, "Lord, the Zhen family doesn't have a suitable official position!" Is it time to do this? ”

"Nope." Fang Zhiwen shook his head: "If it can be operated, the Zhen family would have already obtained it, since there is no legal official position, then we might as well learn from the cottages we saw along the road." ”

"You mean to control the horse thief, no, in the name of the fake horse thief?" Zhen's second son's eyes lit up, this attention to the Zhen family may not have been used, but the scale of the thief's village is a problem, and the other is that it must also face an official crackdown, once it is found to be related to the Zhen family, there will be more troubles in the future, and the gains outweigh the losses.

But now compared with the huge benefits that Qinghekou will bring, the cost of raising thieves has suddenly become lower, this is the blind spot caused by the thinking inertia of the Zhen family, and Fang Zhiwen saw at a glance that this method was feasible.

"No, not a horse thief, but a pirate, and Island 1

"Ah1

Zhen Ergongzi couldn't help but exclaim, and then turned his gaze to Zhou Tai, Zhou Tai's face was already red with excitement, he knew that his opportunity had come, he thought that he would go to the grassland to gallop in the future, and he was a little regretful, but he didn't expect that the lord would arrange such an opportunity for himself.
