This sentence comes from "The Imperial Edict to the Empress", but this article does not exist in this world.

Zhu Jun's words just scratched Fang Keqin's itch.

At this time, Fang Keqin felt that Zhu Jun was very similar to him in terms of personality and philosophy. In addition, Zhu Jun was very kind to him, and he admired him even more.

Seeing Fengyang being managed tightly and orderly by Zhu Jun, already showing the prosperity it should have, I couldn't help but add in my heart: He is also a wise king who governs the world!

After entertaining Fang Keqin at the banquet, Zhu Jun asked Fang Xiao to send Fang Keqin directly to the prefect's Yamen.

On the way, Fang Keqin said: "The King of Wu did not see you clearly because of your young age, but instead entrusted you with a heavy responsibility. You should always be vigilant and never let down His Highness's expectations!"

Fang Xiao couldn't help but nodded, "I understand, kid!"

Seeing that his son was even more silent than before, Fang Keqin didn't know what to say, "Your mother, brother and others will come later."

"The children will go outside the city to meet them!" Fang Xiao said straightly.

The father and son asked and answered questions, more like a teacher and a student.

Arriving at the magistrate's yamen, Fang Keqin took out the appointment letter, and people from the magistrate's yamen came over one after another to see the elder.

Everyone's face was full of smiles, but whether he could get them to return to his heart still depended on Fang Keqin himself.

Fang Xiaozhi didn't stay long either. He had too many things on his hands and needed his attention everywhere. After sending his father to the house, he said goodbye and left.

June has arrived in the blink of an eye. These days there have been heavy rains one after another, followed by intense sunshine, and the air is filled with the smell of earth.

But the river bank is impregnable, and so is Fengyang Lake.

The haze of the disaster has gradually receded.

To the north of Fengyang City, several factories have been erected, most of which are owned by the Shen family.

The more polluting cement factories, ironworks, and brick factories are in the hills to the south.

With the mountains as a barrier, the dust cannot float into the city.

All the main roads in the city have been paved with cement roads, and the main roads outside the city are also being built at a speed of five miles a day. This is still a problem of the output of the cement factory.

Once the output increases and a lot of labor is added, repairing twenty miles a day will not be a big problem.

At present, the main task is to straighten the main road and use stones to widen and strengthen it so that six carriages can be carried at the same time.

Fortunately, there are many people, so it is not difficult.

Zhu Jun was inspecting outside the city with Fang Keqin at the moment. Zhu Jun took time to come over, but Fang Keqin was running outside almost every day. In one month, he wore out three pairs of shoes.

The people in the magistrate's yamen complained endlessly, but there was nothing they could do. King Wu was protecting him, and he fell into the eyes of His Majesty.

The Huaixi General Manager is still the father-in-law of King Wu. This Fengyang is no better than before. If you dare to explode, you don't know how you will die.

"This roadbed is stable and made of big red stones. It will last for decades without any problem!" Fang Keqin looked ahead and stepped on the cement road, sighing: "This cement is harder than Sanhe soil mixed with glutinous rice juice. Not only does it produce more

It's high, cheap, doesn't waste food, and solidifies quickly. This road is better than the road in the capital. If it can go directly to the capital, the schedule can be shortened by at least three days."

“If we want to get rich, we must first build roads. We must not only make use of Fengyang’s water conservancy, but also make use of land routes. All roads must lead to Fengyang.

Therefore, this Gyeonggi Road must be repaired!" Zhu Jun said.

"One mile of road costs nearly 800 taels of silver. Four hundred miles, that is... 320,000 taels of silver. Is it worth it... to spend so much money?" Fang Keqin knew the benefits of building roads, but one

Three hundred and twenty thousand taels of silver. This is too scary. How much does the national treasury earn per year?

"The 320,000 taels of silver invested today will help Fengyang earn ten or a hundred 320,000 taels of silver in the future.

Fengyang used to have 700,000 to 800,000 soldiers and civilians, which was no less than Yingtian. But now it is only over 300,000. The biggest problem in Fengyang is that it cannot retain people.

If you want to retain people, you must completely change Fengyang's environment. If the environment becomes better, those people will naturally be willing to settle in Fengyang.

Fengyang does not exceed Yingtian, but the number of people should at least not be less than before, right?" Zhu Jun said: "This is the capital of Zhongdu. If the capital is moved in the future, will it look good if there are two or three big cats and kittens?"

Fang Keqin nodded, cupped his hands and said, "What His Highness said is that the humble minister is too narrow-minded!"

"By the way, how are the surrounding towns?" Zhu Jun asked.

Speaking of this matter, Fang Keqin became more energetic, "According to His Highness's request, the land measurement of more than 30 villages in three towns around Fengyang Lake has been completed.

Coupled with the land donated by the imperial court, the available arable land reached 600,000 acres.

Among them, there are ninety-eight ponds, one large reservoir, and more than ten small reservoirs...

The village contract system has now been implemented, and a symposium was held with all villagers seven days ago.

A contract was signed.

The prefect's Yamen teamed up with Prince Wu's Mansion to purchase grain. The previous crop of rice had been flooded, and only a small part survived.

So now we are focusing on the second crop of rice and rushing to grow grain.

In addition, ponds and reservoirs have also begun to be contracted for fish farming.

Then they opened up wasteland and planted fruit trees and tea.

A total of 5,700 people were mobilized.

The folks are very motivated."

Now the people affected by the disaster have settled in the city, but the land outside the city must not be left uncultivated.

In order to provide these people with a long-term job, Zhu Jun came up with the collective contract system.

Divided by region.

Fish farming, planting fields, fruit trees, tea and other economic crops.

With the prefect's Yamen and Prince Wu's Mansion taking charge, over time, a complete agricultural and sideline products industry chain will be formed here.

Relying on the powerful channels of the Shen family and the Yingtian Chamber of Commerce, it is not difficult to sell these.

If you can't sell it, it doesn't matter, Zhu Jun still has a backup plan.

"Your Highness doesn't know how grateful the people are to you now!" Fang Keqin also looked at Zhu Jun with admiration. It turns out that disaster relief can be done in this way, and local economy can be developed in this way. Zhu Jun's series of methods directly opened up a new window.

Open a new door.

He felt that when he was the prefect before, he was like a dog.

Look at how long Zhu Jun has been here. The lives of the people in Fengyang are changing day by day.

What a great talent!

"When all Fengyang people live a good life, it won't be too late to express your gratitude to me!" Zhu Jun smiled lightly.

Fang Keqin was in awe.

The King of Wu was like this. He had talents for governing the world, but he was never proud.

Everyone liked the praise from the people, but Zhu Jun was the only one who chose to ignore it.

He always thinks of the people as much as possible, and keeps treating himself harshly and squeezing himself, just to treat the people better.

In the past, Fang Kachin felt that sages only existed in books and people’s imaginations.

But now, the sage was standing in front of him.
