On this day, Lin Ruzhi finished processing the official documents and trudged back to his home. People from the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of War were all arranged to live in the best inn in the southwest. He did not live in Li Shanzhao's original residence, and he had additional

I picked a house.

Compared with the original magistrate's mansion, his house was much quieter, and it could be regarded as a clear break from the past. Lin Ruzhi entered the study and stretched out his arms. When the door rang, he thought it was his wife coming in to bring tea. When he raised his head, his expression changed slightly.

Change: "You!"

The door of the study room was closed immediately, and the visitor looked at him with a calm expression. Lin Ruzhi felt that blood was rushing to the top of his head. How dare they come at this time, how dare they come!

"You are really crazy!" Lin Ruzhi's face was extremely ugly: "How dare you come to me?"

But the visitor just sat down calmly and said calmly: "In the current situation of Prefect Lin, we just want to give the Prefect more choices. Now it seems that we have worried too much and the Prefect has successfully passed."

Passed this level.”

"Your Majesty is just wise. Besides, where the map is, it is indeed clear. There is no dispute on this point." Lin Ruzhi said harshly: "Besides, I have no contact with you. We have only met twice, and the second time was forced by force.

The situation had to yield."

"With so many people at the scene testifying, what should I fear? You can't even think of taking advantage of me!" Lin Ruzhi put on the air of an official: "If you don't leave quickly, I will definitely arrest you."

"Oh, capture me?" Long Qi couldn't help but laugh: "How do you think I entered your mansion and how did I avoid your soldiers? Forgive me for being arrogant. The total number of people in your mansion is not enough for me to fight.

."

"You..." Lin Ruzhi said speechlessly: "What do you want?"

"I have something to tell you, sir. You are not alone. My master asked me to give you a message. The missing people in the southwest did not go to other places to make a living. Instead, they defected to me, Da Kun, and became Da Kun's people."

Lin Ruzhi's head was thumped, and his buttocks involuntarily left the chair. It was a common practice for people in the southwest to go out to make a living, but if they defected to Da Kun, the nature of this would be serious. As the parents of the people, he would definitely have to bear the consequences.

responsibility!

"You are really, really, really my nemesis!" Lin Ruzhi was so angry that he cursed: "I have seen people who steal people's money, but you actually steal people!"

"But do you know how happy they are in Dakun?" Long Qi said disapprovingly: "In the past, there were no books to read, no clothes to wear, and no food to eat in the southwest. But they have their own business in the southwest.

I have more books to read in my own house.”

"Now that we give them a choice, they will not return to Dongyue and become the people of Dongyue. However, does Mr. Lin know how many people in Southwest China have obtained Kun's fish charm? Do you want to know the number?"

Long Qi showed a rare smile. Lin Ruzhi's scalp tightened and he subconsciously wanted to say that he didn't know, he didn't want to know!

He had checked the population of the Southwest and knew exactly how much had been lost, and how much had deserted East Vietnam. The figures were unimaginable.

"Sir Lin, this matter will be revealed sooner or later, because the population loss in the southwest is still continuing. Everyone who has been to Dakun has a comparison. Naturally, he will not just stay in Dakun to enjoy the blessings. The so-called sharing of blessings will include himself.

The relatives from the same hometown were taken away from the southwest."

"To be honest with you, the population transfer in the southwest has never stopped. Can you imagine the embarrassing situation in the near future when there will be no one in the southwest? How dare you say that you can defend the southwest and your position?"

Lin Ruzhi only felt what kind of sin he had suffered and why he came here in the first place. He was full of ambitions but could not realize them.

There are pits and loopholes everywhere in the southwest. He wants to make up for it, but how?

"You are so loud. Do you really think you can absorb all the people from the Southwest?" Lin Ruzhi couldn't bear to admit defeat and asked: "Although the population in the Southwest is not large, it is still quite large. Can you really evacuate our Southwest?"

"If it doesn't work in one year, then two years. If it doesn't work in two years, then three years. If it doesn't work in three years, then five years. My Majesty once told me a story about the Foolish Old Man who moved the mountains. The mountains can be moved, let alone the poor who have to find a way out.

If a person has a broad road before his eyes, will he not be tempted?"

Long Qi's words were heard every word, and Lin Ruzhi tightened his fingers, daring to do whatever he wanted on the land of Dongyue. According to what the Minister of Industry said, Da Kun sent envoys there openly and honestly, and was also named a special envoy.

It was difficult for him to inquire anything from the two officials. He got too much information and could not judge His Majesty's true thoughts towards Kun.

But Kun has reached out to the southwest, what should we do?

"The salt currently used in the Southwest is also produced by Da Kun. Does your Excellency know?" Long Qi sighed: "However, the Southwest is now exposed to the sea, and it will definitely build its own salt pond next. After the Southwest produces salt, it will be of great help.

"

The Minister of the Ministry of Industry has already mentioned this point before. If you rely on the sea to eat from the sea, you can not only make salt, but also develop the fishery industry. This is a great good thing for the southwest, but it is even more difficult to start from scratch.

People in the Southwest are not good at fishing and have to create something from scratch. One can imagine the pressure on Lin Ruzhi. Qin Feng knew this, so he would not hesitate to raise this point in front of him, "But how long will it take Mr. Lin to lead the Southwest?"

Escape from poverty?”

Lin Ruzhi was dumbfounded. Long Qi didn't take it seriously when he saw this, and put a letter in front of Lin Ruzhi: "Master Lin's ancestors once engaged in fishery production in the southeast, but that happened a long time ago, right?"

"You have checked me out, and naturally you know everything. It is completely reasonable to know this." Lin Ruzhi said: "But that was three generations ago. Later, I chose to take the imperial examination and become an official. I myself know nothing about fishery.

No……"

Only when Lin Ruzhi said this did he realize that he had fallen into the other party's trap. He didn't understand fishery. No one in the southwest knew about fishery. So what if there were marine resources. What could he do in the southwest? The population was losing rapidly, transportation was inconvenient, and there was no concern for ocean development.

No experience.

There are naturally experienced people in the southeast. If they come here, how can they have a place of their own?

This accidentally discovered sea area has no bonus effect on him, and the "old disease" in the southwest and the current population loss will become a life-threatening threat. Taking his life will only make his future bleak.

Lin Ruzhi's expression suddenly changed. His attitude towards Long Qi was not as tough and confrontational as before. He sat down angrily.

As the saying goes, one dies before his ambitions are fulfilled. After struggling for so long, he has achieved limited achievements and encountered many crises. He thought about it and suddenly sneered: "Do you think I am about to lose my life in the southwest and have no future?"

The way to go."

"That's the truth." Long Qi said: "Master Lin, you need to be more open-minded."

Lin Ruzhi laughed angrily. He looked at the letter on the table and wanted to open it or not. Long Qi raised his eyebrows and cupped his hands and said: "I just went out to do some business today and met Mr. Lin by the way. Whether you believe it or not is up to you."
