"Hehe, Lin Handong, this king ordered you to capture this city in seven days, but you told me that it would take two months, isn't this a delay in the fighter? By the time you take it down in two months, the cucumber dishes will be cold! Li Wanyun sneered.

"Back to the prince's words, the young general said that it is common sense, and it is also a plan made according to the situation of the nearby battlefield, this Bingsan City does not need to be attacked at all, but if the prince orders that it must be taken in seven days, then the young general can only take it regardless of casualties, regardless of success or failure, and take it down with a decisive heart. Lin Han Road.

"If I were Bingsan City, it wouldn't be your Lin Handong's head!" Li Wanyun said.

"The young general can't figure it out, why do you have to capture this city, Lord Wang?" Lin Han East Road.

"Handong, did the prince ask you, or did you question the prince!" Xiao Chen scolded sharply on the side, "No wonder people don't like you, and you won't even say a word!" ”

"Yes, yes, yes!" Lin Han was taken aback, and hurriedly apologized to Li Wanyun, "Lord forgive me!" I was immersed in it, and I almost forgot my humility, but this is only because you are a big expert in war, and it is only because you dare to argue with you with a young general, if you don't understand, the young general will not talk nonsense with him! ”

"You, you, you Lin Handong, are you talking to the prince?" Xiao Chen was almost made happy by him.

"Hahaha, I like Handong's straight temper." Li Wanyun didn't mind, and laughed, "Talking about the army on paper, on the matter, but there is no need to talk about what is respectful and inferior, it is best to be outspoken, since Handong insists on refusing to capture this city, what if the king wants to take these cities?" ”

When the two of them talked about military affairs, they forgot to eat, and Xiao Chen simply ignored them and drank and ate by themselves.

Duanmu Nanfeng talked very happily with the three of them, Chen Ziang didn't dare to talk at first, but when he heard a few people talk about the local economy, he couldn't help but interject, a few of them don't understand the military, but they are all well versed in the economy, and you and I are talking about it is quite speculative.

Speaking of local trade, although Chen Ziang is no longer in his position, he is still worried about his politics, his Weizhou County borders southern Xinjiang, and because of the war, he also built a direct road to southern Xinjiang.

Li Wanjiang has been guarding southern Xinjiang for many years, and there has been almost no war, so Weizhou County has trade with Burma and Siam through southern Xinjiang.

This is thanks to Li Wanyun, who not only understands military affairs but also understands economics, so he has always vigorously supported the trade activities of the three places, and even sent troops to clean up all the rogue bandits on both sides of the road.

However, the road to southern Xinjiang is too difficult to walk, and it is extremely inconvenient to transport goods, so most of them are official trade, and private traders rarely come and go, and the road from Weizhou County to Jiangnan County of Minzhou County is not smooth enough, which leads to the difficult development of trade in Weizhou County.

As the old saying goes, if you want to get rich, you must first build roads, without roads, trade can never develop, and without trade, how can we talk about economic development?

The reason why Yanyun County has developed rapidly is because several major roads are smooth and the sea transportation is extremely developed.

Weizhou County is an inland county, so there is no need to think about shipping, but because the territory is mountainous, it is extremely difficult to build a broad road, and with the current financial situation of the Great Zhou, it is impossible to think about it.

After several years of on-the-ground consideration, Chen Ziang decided that several canals could be opened to connect all the rivers flowing through Weizhou County, so that they could be transported by water in the future.

Although the road is a bit long, it can be permanently unobstructed, and the transportation capacity of the ship is more than ten times more than that of the mule cart, and the freight is relatively low.

But he is a small prefect, but he can't do such a big thing, and when the report is handed over, no one supports his idea except for the ridicule of his superiors, who ridicule him for being cautious and whimsical.

In desperation, he had to go directly to Weizhou County to ask the Ministry of Industry, but naturally he was also sunk into the sea, and there was no news.

Li Hong said Ziang, your idea is very good, and I personally support it, but you don't know that now the Ministry of Industry can't take care of your Weizhou County at all, and you are in a hurry now...... It is impossible to allocate so much money for such a large project.

Unless you raise at least eighty percent of the project money in Weizhou County and recruit all the people, then the Ministry of Industry may be able to help you.

Chen Ziang said that the canal is not open, the trade is not smooth, and the economy is not developing, where will the silver come from?

You can't open a canal without silver, but you need silver to open a canal, and this is an endless cycle that no one can unravel.

But in the end, the court still has no money......

"The silver of the imperial court is used to fight the war, if the silver of the war is used in the place, the officials of Weizhou County will not dare to say, but Fenzhou City is definitely not in the current situation." Chen Ziang shook his head and sighed.

"Ziang, it's okay for you to say this in front of our own people, but don't say it to others, this is a vain discussion of state affairs, not stubborn." Li Hongdao.

"Ziang entered Beijing this time, but do you have any plans?" Liu Wenzheng took the opportunity to divert the topic.

"Waiting." Chen Ziang said with a bitter face, "I don't know if I will wait until the Year of the Monkey?" I want to say goodbye to my hometown and return to my hometown, but I am not yet old, and I want to resign from the office, but I am reluctant to wear this clothes. ”

"Ziang, you are young, you should be serving the country, why do you still have the idea of returning to your hometown?" Duanmu Nanfeng said with a smile.

"Uncle Guo, the lower officials want to serve the country, but they don't have a chance, this motivation is useless, who is full of enthusiasm?" Chen Ziang sighed and said.

"This energy can be used in my Jiangnan, as for your enthusiasm, I will sprinkle it on the prince." Duanmu Nanfeng said with a smile, "It just so happens that the prefect of Yongning Mansion in Jiangnan County has come home to worry about it, and there is such a shortage, Zi Angning cares?" ”

"Uncle Guo wants to laugh, but all the shortcomings in Jiangnan County are first-class, and Yongning Mansion is even more first-class! How can it be my turn Chen Ziang? Chen Ziang was very worried, and he was amused by Duanmu Nanfeng's joke.

"Why does Ziang have Jiangnan?" Li Wanyun and Lin Han finally finished chatting, came back and sat down, and heard the conversation of Nanfeng Chen Ziang, Li Wanyun asked casually.

"Back to the prince's words, it's Uncle Guo who is joking with the villain." Chen Ziang hurriedly got up and answered.

"Oh, Nanfeng, he loves to joke!" When Li Wanyun looked at Duanmu Nanfeng, he always had a smile.

"Hehe, I just said it casually, Brother Ziang, you just listen to it, everyone is happy, get together today, it's not a joke, it's not a joke, it's not something serious." Duanmu Nanfeng stuck out his tongue at Chen Ziang, smiling like a naughty child.

"How can such a thing be a joke?" Li Wanyun made a straight face again, "But when this king first arrived in Jiangnan, he really needs helpers, I met Anbang some time ago, and I specially told him to help me find some capable talents, but Anbang's guy is too slippery, and this king can't trust him...... By the way, Xiao Chen, how did you and Ziang meet? ”
