CHAPTER 2 CHAPTER 7 CHAPTER 88 THE TEMPTATION OF THE GOVERNOR

Gu Xinhai was well deserved to be promoted to the governor of the northwest by virtue of his outstanding performance in the position of the city guard in Hanzhong, and it did not cause much controversy, and the industrial and commercial circles in the northwest even held a grand welcome banquet for Gu Xinhai when he saw off Fielding away, and Gu Xinhai assisted Fang Chengsong, the governor of Kansai, in the position of the city guard in Hanzhong, to promote the gradual transformation of the land aristocracy in the entire Kansai region into the industrial and commercial aristocracy, which also won the general recognition of the industrial and commercial circles in the northwest, and they also hoped that Gu Xinhai could further promote the development of industry and commerce in the northwest in the position of governor of the northwest。 Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
It is somewhat surprising that the position of Governor of Northern Luzon was promoted by Deputy Secretary for Finance Kong Yunzhen, but it is not surprising to think that he can act as the deputy of the money bag in Western Xinjiang, especially now that Northern Luzon has undergone rapid development during Mu Haoran's tenure, its economic strength is simply incomparable to that of the Luzon reign when it was like a wilderness, and the tax revenue has risen by leaps and bounds, far exceeding the neighboring Western Regions County and East Tengger County, and there are even faint signs of catching up with the Northwest County. The appointment of Hung Yun Zhen, who was originally a financial secretary, as governor of Northern Luzon was clearly intended to strengthen the economic position of Northern Luzon, especially after the Pamir region of the former Principality of Komini was added to North Luzon as a new province.
Tobacco cultivation and processing, sugar cane cultivation and sugar production, and coffee cultivation and processing have become the three old pillars of North Luzon, while the rubber tapping and rubber processing industry and the wood processing industry have also sprung up, which together constitute the five economic pillars of Vito Province. On the one hand, Shuangdui Province developed iron mines in the north, and on the other hand, vigorously developed the wasteland in the south, tea plantations, rubber plantations, coffee plantations, and the cocoa plantations that were recently brought from the southern part of the Central Continent spread throughout the southern Shuangdui region, and the towns between those plantations became processing centers for primary agricultural products, and various processing workshops were dotted, and the products that had been processed at the primary level were transported to Shuangdui or Volcano, where they were refined and sold to all parts of the mainland.
Although Volcano Mansion was the last to be built, the Government Affairs Bureau immediately set off a development and construction frenzy here after making it the capital of North Luzon, and after moving the Governor's Mansion to Volcano Prefecture, a town that was originally unknown, Mu Haoran personally inquired about the planning and construction of the city, and immediately hired a special architectural planner to carry out urban construction planning. The urban development plan of Volcano Prefecture is very different from that of other prefectures, with wide streets surrounding two large circles, one large and one small, and then connected by streets to form a cobweb-like block centered on the Governor's Palace.
The population of Volcano Mansion has also increased from less than 20,000 at the time of its establishment to 200,000, and most of the immigrants from the interior of the Tang River Empire are mostly Taiping soldiers who are automatically asked to settle here after being disbanded and repatriated, and Western Xinjiang has also given them quite favorable conditions, especially in terms of land policy, which is intended to favor them, and immigrants from Indean also account for a considerable number, mainly Hyderabad tribes and Punjabi immigrants, and the proportion of real local indigenous residents has dropped to less than one percent. The central region of North Luzon, to which Volcano Prefecture belongs, is originally sparsely populated, but due to the large number of volcanoes here, the volcanic ash left behind by the volcanic eruption makes the area extremely fertile, and some of the volcanic ash is also an excellent building material, which is also the unique natural condition of Volcano Prefecture. The influx of Tang and Indians was first of all to the land that had been barren for thousands of years, and the abundant forest resources and a large number of lakes and swamps made it possible to survive as long as they were willing to work, burning wasteland, cutting down trees to build houses, and Volcano Mansion gradually became the real center of Northern Luzon because of the continuous flow of immigrants.
On the one hand, Western Xinjiang does not recognize the annexation of the Duchy of Komini by the Luzonists, but on the other hand, it openly declares Pamir directly to become a prefecture under the jurisdiction of North Luzon, which also makes people feel a little awkward, but Wufeng also let Mu Haoran and Hu Yanqiu clearly inform the officers and soldiers of the Andean Corps based on Pamir that it is obviously unrealistic to rebuild the Duchy of Komini under the current situation, and to make Pamir a holy place for the Komini people is only to temporarily make Pamir a dependent territory in Western Xinjiang, and only in this way can it ensure its safetyThe officers and soldiers of the Andean regiment could not help but admit this cruel reality, and in order to survive, since they chose to reject the Luzon, they had to accept this outcome.
The former governor Mu Haoran even boasted that as long as he was given another five years to develop, he would be able to make the economic strength of Northern Luzon catch up with the average level of the empire, and within ten years he could make the economic strength of Northern Luzon County firmly rank among the top five in the empire. It was under such circumstances that Kong Yunzhen became the second governor of Northern Luzon, and he was also faced with the need to build the Pamir into a powerful wedge between the territory of the former Duchy of Luzon and the territory of Komini, not only to develop the Pamir economically, but also to build the Pamir into a strong fortress, posing a great threat to the Luzon people Fortified fortress, which was also specially told to him by Kong Yunzhen when he met with him before taking office.
Mu Haoran and Wu Zhi's appointment as the governor of Sanjiang and the governor of Burma County respectively did cause some discussions, and the more well-informed people in the government and the opposition in Western Xinjiang vaguely knew that Wuzhi, the defender of the capital of Qin, had been seeking to serve as the governor of Sanjiang, and Sanjiang was familiar to him, and the popularity was also good, and there was also the relationship between Lin Yuexin and His Royal Highness King Qin, which should be said to be a matter of course.
But what is surprising is that it was Mu Haoran, the former governor of Northern Luzon, who served as the governor of Sanjiang, while Wuzhi served as the governor of Burmese County. Such a bizarre change made many people unexpected, although Sanjiang County is now incomplete, but now under the strength of Li Wufeng, almost no one will doubt the determination and strength of the new empire to recover Huayang and Yushan from the hands of the Maqi Khan, and Sanjiang County is connected to Yuejing and Ankun, which were originally vassals of the empire and have now been occupied by Maqi Khan. The three kingdoms of Jemero, on the other hand, are close to the Romanesian Alliance, both in terms of strategic location and economic development are quite important, in contrast, although the county is in a period of rapid development, but after all, the foundation is too poor, especially in southern Myanmar and central Burma, although the natural conditions are excellent, but the geographical environment has a great constraint on the development of these two provinces, which can be called the most backward areas of the empire, to improve the situation of these places is not something that can be done by individual ability alone, it takes considerable investment and energy, compared to Sanjiang County, which has a good foundation and an important location, anyone can understand that there is a big difference between the status of the two。
Many well-informed and somewhat intelligent people thought that Bai Yuanzhong, the guardian of Hejian City, had failed to seek the position of governor of Heshuo through Angel, and found that His Royal Highness the King of Qin seemed to be particularly disgusted with the involvement of his female relatives in personnel appointments, perhaps because he had a great taboo in these aspects.
The ensuing series of prefectural and county-level city guard appointments seemed to confirm some people's speculation, and with the Sixth Army taking over the defense of Sanjiang, the three divisions of the Sanjiang Lin clan were also ordered to move south to Kutdam to wait for the next step of reorganization. The former director of the Sanjiang County Finance Bureau, Park Jin, was transferred to the Financial Department as the deputy director to replace Kong Yunzhen, and the former Nanfeng City Guard retired, and the Sanjiang Sanfu City Guardian was all transferred from the Northwest County Prefecture, which seemed to indicate that the Sanjiang regional political power system had completed a complete cut with the Lin family and fully shifted to the control of the Li family.
In addition to the candidates for the governors of the two counties have been made public and immediately took office, the appointment orders of the four city guards of Jinling, Beiping, Dengzhou, and Laizhou were also issued immediately, but the other six city guards were not clear, which made many people have a lot of ideas.
"Boss Liang!" Before the boat could hear steadily, a strong man with yellow hair had already jumped up from the side of the boat, jumped suddenly on the dock, and shook hands with the man in green shirts standing on the dock.
The man in the green shirt was obviously a little excited, punched the other party fiercely, and said with a smile: "Good boy, it turns out that I am here to be a villain for you, but a good person lets you be a good person, Your Highness is really eccentric, you kid have to treat my brothers well." ”
"Hehe, no problem, the boss said a word, in Jinling City, on the Qinhuai River, you can choose, but unfortunately Boss Liang doesn't like that tune, otherwise the brother would have to let Boss Liang live happily on the Qinhuai River for a few days, so that Liang Lao Lian has to be helped to walk, hehe, in addition to the filial piety to His Royal Highness King Qin, the brother still has a little left, if the boss needs it, we will endure the pain of love." But the boss here has to leave more foundation for his brothers, and this East China Sea has been tossed by you like this, and I'm afraid that all the good things have been taken away by you, so you have to leave me some bottom, right? I'm a newcomer, and I don't know the place well, so I can't open up the situation without some funds, right? You can't let me, the newly appointed governor, go around to eat, right?"
The yellow-haired man also smiled happily, took a deep breath, and was considered to have reached the ground, from Burma to Hanzhong, and then from Hanzhong to the north through Yanjing to Jinling by boat, these more than ten days were almost non-stop, the ship did not anchor, except for a peaceful sleep on the day he received a lecture from His Royal Highness the King of Qin in Hanzhong City, almost did not stop.
