"Can this... just a few thatched huts solve the problem? I'm afraid this won't work?"

Wang Er instinctively thought Gao Qiu's idea was not good, because from his own point of view, it was just a thatched hut, which really didn't work.

"Yes! Young Master, this matter is not that simple, why don't we go back and discuss it first?"

Li Wan was also not optimistic about Gao Qiu's idea, so he subconsciously wanted to persuade Gao Qiu to go back, but he simply forgot that Gao Qiu was sitting on his shoulder now and was following him.

"Go back? You have to go back! The things that follow are not easy to deal with here, but Wang Er, you must go and do it immediately. The reason is to use the original "thieves are in a haunted place". After I go back, I will send you a notice. It's not too early now. If you can't build enough that hut for those outside to live in before dark, you don't have to ask me anything, just choose a better place for yourself."

Only when you return to the government office can you find a way to find a way. Gao Qiu did not intend to supervise Wang Er here from the beginning. It depends on whether Wang Er is conscious. Of course, the necessary supervisors still have to leave one.

Li Wan and Zhang Qian are naturally inappropriate. After all, they are yamen runners, so it would not work at all with them to supervise them. Lin Bao, who followed, is a good candidate. Whether in terms of his identity or reputation, Gao Qiu can use him to do such things without any scruples, but the problem is that there are still some things to use for him later. If he is left at the city gate, it is obviously inappropriate. After thinking about it, Gao Qiu seems to have only one candidate left, that is, Zhang Jiang, the chief of the Zhangjia Village family.

"Hey! That Zhang Jiang, come here."

Gao Qiu waved his hand and called Zhang Jiang to his side.

"Are you looking for me?"

Zhang Jiang is disgusted by the common people, but Gao Qiu is just a child, and his conversation and behavior are more reliable than Zhang Jiang. In addition, the instructions of the elders in the village have forced Zhang Jiang to obey.

"Well! I thought about it, you are the only one who is suitable. Wang Er is too careless in doing things. If you miss something, something will easily happen. So I plan to let you stay and watch him. What do you think?"

Gao Qiu didn't say that he could trust Wang Er. Whoever made him a senior is a senior? He was considered to be a "fox and tiger power" and he had no idea.

"yes!"

Zhang Jiang is a loyal person, in other words, a little stunned. At this time, except for agreeing, he didn't know what else to say.

"Well! I don't worry about doing things. By the way, Lin Bao, please leave your people to help Zhang Jiang. If there is anything at that time, I'm worried that he will not be able to do it alone."

After expressing enough trust in Zhang Jiang, Gao Qiu turned his attention to Lin Bao on one side.

"My person? That's OK, what about me?"

When he came here, he was ready to be assigned to the envoy, so Lin Bao had no intention of refusing, but Lin Bao didn't have to stay by looking at the high ball, so where should he go?

"You? I have something to do and need your help. You have nothing to do now, right?"

Gaoqiu was asking Lin Bao on the surface, but in fact, he looked full of "If you say something happens, I will let you have something to do." He didn't give Lin Bao a chance to refuse.

"This... let the young master arrange it!"

Seeing Gao Qiu giving himself a way, Lin Bao had nothing else to do except to agree with a wry smile.

"Well! Since that's the case, then everyone should do whatever they should do. It's getting late, Li Wan, let's go back to the government office."

After arranging the matters of the city gate, Gaoqiu was no longer necessary. Next, he would have to deal with more important things.

Naturally, the people outside the city cannot let them enter and exit at will, but it is obviously impossible not to let them enter and exit at all, so Gaoqi must come up with a way to stabilize the situation.

Since we have decided to build thatched huts outside the city for those migrants to live in, we should simply carry out this matter to the end. We already have "private houses", so we should simply build corresponding service facilities among these private houses, such as small merchants, taverns, teahouses, and clinics, so that these temporary private houses can truly meet the needs of migrants.

It’s better to say about small merchants and hawkers. As long as you have money to make, how big can there be in the city or outside the city? Although the population of Lin'an City has increased significantly, the number of small merchants and hawkers has also begun to increase. In this way, a new market can naturally attract these profit-seeking people. Similarly, not to mention taverns, teahouses, etc., what reason do they have to be unable to get over money?

The clinic is a little troublesome, but it is not much trouble. Although most doctors do not pursue profits, the population outside the city has increased dramatically, and the parents of doctors will naturally agree to go outside the city to see people. Even if these people were not very active at the beginning, Gao Qiu could still invite Doctor Zhou from Lin'an City to call everyone, so it would not be a problem.

Of course, these things have a very heavy premise, that is, city gate tax.

The city gate tax in the Song Dynasty actually not only had to pay tax when entering the city, but even leaving the city. And not only merchants, but even ordinary people also had to pay tax. This has a lot to do with the prosperity and development of business in the Song Dynasty. It can be said that the government's expenses are quite large and more importantly rely on city gate tax. However, the city gate tax is currently an obstacle to preventing the high-ball strategy.

After thinking about it, Gao Qiu could only ask Su Shi’s official silver to issue a notice specifically stating the city gate tax during this period. There was no other way.

In addition to the above problems, there is also the high prices in Lin'an City. If prices continue to rise, then before the drought comes, there will be chaos in Lin'an City.

But merchants have always valued profits. Not to mention that they are just a pseudo-'young young master' like Gao Qiu, even if they are the magistrate Su Shi, the magistrate, came forward personally, these merchants may not be able to give face, so if they want to ask them for help, they basically don't have to report hope. Not enough, this is why Gao Qiu brought Lin Bao back. There is no way to go through the formal way. However, even if they want to seek profit, those merchants have to consider whether their business can continue to run, right?

"Lin Bao, do you understand what I just said?"

Gao Qiu looked at Lin Bao in front of him and said with a serious expression. It can be said that Lin Bao is a key figure if this time can happen.

"Please rest assured that although I, Lin Bao, are not a good person, I also know the principle of 'no eggs are left under the collapse of the nest'. Even if I, Lin Bao, have to do it for the young master this time!"

Whether in terms of righteousness or his own selfish desires, Lin Bao knew that this matter must be done, so he was ruthless in his heart and said very resolutely.

"Okay! You are not doing things for me, you are doing things for thousands of people in Lin'an City! If this matter can be solved perfectly, you will be the first priority!"

After Chen finished talking about the interests, Gao Qiu naturally wanted to give Lin Bao some sweetness. Of course, these were made by Gao Qiu instead of Su Shi. However, with Gao Qiu's understanding of Su Shi, such a promise is not actually a deception.

"yes!"

For the first time in his life, Lin Bao had the idea of ​​following someone in his heart, but this was just an idea, which was destroyed in an instant.

After arranging Lin Bao’s affairs, Gao Qiu will go to the Houya to pay homage to Su Shi’s two wives.

At this time, the two ladies were still carrying flowers to embroider. They didn't know what the meaning of embroidery was, but they could have been embroidered for such a long time.

"I've met two ladies!"

One rare thing, Gao Qiu came to the front of the two ladies and knelt down straight.

For some reason, when he saw Gao Qiu kneeling in front of the two ladies, Li Wan felt his heart twitching, as if he had suffered some great grievances. No, it should be said that he was even more grievance than he was wronged!

Of course, no one noticed it. Just as Gao Qiu knelt down, Wang Chaoyun's body trembled, and then the steel needle in his hand was pierced on his fingers, saying "Ten fingers connect to the heart", but Wang Chaoyun seemed to be stupid and did not notice the pain in his fingers at all.

"What's wrong? Damn, what are you doing?"

Putting down the needle and thread in his hand, Wang Runzhi looked at Gao Qiu with a serious face. You know, the last time Gao Qiu took out the official seal to solve the problem of the people's attack on the government office was not like this!

"You are back with your wife. Today, Gaoqiu is afraid that he will ask for his official seal again, and this time..."

Gao Qiu clenched his fists tightly, and he didn't know how to explain his helplessness to Wang Runzhi. He is obviously a child now! Why should he bear such responsibility!

"This time you are going to act on your behalf, right?" In fact, without Gao Qiu's explanation, Wang Runzhi had already guessed a rough idea. Even if he didn't go out on the streets, how could she not know the current situation in Lin'an City? It was just that when it came to his own officials, he had to be careful, "God, I'll ask you, what are you doing?"

"For the people of Hangzhou Prefecture!"

Gaoqiu took a deep breath, his eyes firmer than ever before.

"Huh! Since that's the case, what else can I say? You know where the official seal is, so you can pick it up!"

Not only did he trust Gao Qiu, but he also trusted Su Shi, and of course, he also comforted Wang Chaoyun. Wang Runzhi let go at this moment.

"Madam Thanks!"

Gao Qiu slowly bent down and kowtowed at Wang Runzhi.

At the same time as Gao Qiu's body, Li Wan's hanging heart and tears in Wang Chaoyun's eyes.

But only Gao Qiu himself knew that when he bent down and straightened up again, thousands of people in Lin'an City were already pressing on his shoulders.
Chapter completed!
