Among the 1.0 million people, more than 700,000 are concentrated in Nanhai County and Cangwu County. The other places are almost like wilderness, and the vines grow extremely fast. If you open a path and there is a heavy rain, then
For a few days, you couldn't even find your way, you were so heartbroken!
Jiaozhou is big or small, but if you throw in 10 million people, you won't find anyone anywhere, let alone only one million people.
If you just talk about Jiaozhou and you may not have any special feeling, then you can understand it when you take a look at the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty.
Jizhou can be said to be the first of the thirteen states, Yongzhou is the political center, and the three major border counties in the north are more powerful than the other. Qingzhou, Yanzhou, Yuzhou, and Xuzhou are all grain-producing areas. Yizhou is a land of abundance, a place where Jingyang, land and water meet, and the material turnover is extremely high.
convenient.
What about Jiaozhou? There is really nothing, poor mountains and rivers, inconvenient transportation, hot and humid miasma, and there will be typhoons. Even if the grain production is good due to climate reasons, it cannot be transported out. It can be said that it is the worst among the thirteen states.
One state.
If it weren't for Qingzhou's reliable shipping a few years ago, Jiaozhou would still be having a great time fighting in the Central Plains, and Jiaozhou would still be celebrating the Chinese New Year.
Jiaozhou is a sinkhole. This is the only feeling that Shi Xie has after working for so long. If he didn't feel that he was incompetent and would rather be a chicken head than a phoenix tail, Shi Xie would have applied to be an official in Chang'an long ago.
, who wants to stay in that place.
Having said that, although the place is very bad, with poor mountains and rivers, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and the transportation is inconvenient. Even if they are arrogant and domineering in it, no one will care about it. It has even developed to the point where all the official positions in the counties of Jiaozhou are owned by their family members.
Yes, and Shi Xie dared to report it like this.
However, even if Shi Xie reported so sincerely, no one would care. After all, Shi Xie just shouted for people to come to his place to serve as officials, but basically no one came. After all, the land south of Lingnan in the Song Dynasty was a place of exile, not to mention
It was during the Han Dynasty.
Therefore, after Shi Xie actually reported the official positions of his family, the reason why no one cared about it was that no one wanted to be an official there. Shi Xie even said that as long as you come, I will give you official positions, but still no one went.
After all, it’s not uncommon for people to die directly after going to Lingnan.
Even after Chen Xi learned the facts, he just frowned and said nothing. After all, not many people were willing to go to that place, and even if they went, they would avoid trouble. They would definitely run away if they had time. For example, Yuan Hui
, for example, Cheng Bing, Shi Xie couldn't do anything about it.
Is Shi Xie bad at Yuan Hui? In fact, he is not bad at all. When Yuan Hui went to Jiaozhou to avoid trouble, Shi Xie learned that this guy was a famous person and was very capable. He immediately recruited him into his mansion and then offered him an official position.
However, Yuan Hui did not accept the offer. He only served as Shi Xie's staff and gave him advice.
Although Shi Xie felt sorry for this, he didn't make any trouble. He still gave him whatever he asked for. In the end, Yuan Hui still took Shi Xie's food and salted fish and ran away. Now Yuan Hui is in Weiyang Palace and is also participating.
this current matter.
Of course, first of all, I have to admit that Yuan Hui is indeed very capable, and he did repay Shi Xie's kindness. After all, Shi Xie was almost killed by Sun Ce back then. Later, Shi Xie was ready to stand by and watch in Northern Xinjiang. It was Yuan Hui Xiao who
Motivated by his feelings, he asked Shi Xie to open the treasury, and sent pearls and turtles as rewards, and grain and salted fish as military supplies. Yuan Hui personally went to Qingzhou to facilitate this matter.
It can be said that Shi Xie is now able to hang out with five or six people in Chang'an, and he can still go to the same place as Sun Ce. A large part of it is due to Yuan Hui. However, Yuan Hui did not go back after doing that. , he sent someone to return to Jiaozhou by boat, delivered a letter to Shixie, and then ran away.
This shows how irritating that place in Jiaozhou is, but Shi Xie can't say anything. The better his life is now, the more he needs to thank Yuan Hui. However, Yuan Hui ran away, which made Shi Xie very embarrassed. Jiaozhou is a poor place. There is indeed no cure for the hot and humid miasma.
After all, cold places are fine. Nowadays, there are fire pits. If that doesn't work, you can just lie down on the corpse. Sima Jun likes to lie down on the corpse in winter, and he even thinks it is a good way to maintain health. The problem is what to do in hot places, making ice? Chen Xi arrived Now I can't find any natural saltpeter anywhere.
Speaking of which, the person who made gunpowder back then was sent to look for saltpeter by Chen Xi, but it still hasn't been shipped, and Chen Xi is very annoyed. Alas.
Therefore, the summer in the south is very difficult, and Shi Xieran, who originally came to the central government to paddle around, invited Yuan Hui for a drink, and was looking for a few crooked officials to bring back to fill his official position, but left after the process was over, found that farming He can do this!
Originally the state with the least sense of existence among the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty, if it now cultivates heaven and earth essence crops, it might be possible to regain some sense of existence, at least it will not be forgotten. There is still such a place, and their place But Lingnan!
Based on the idea that Jiaozhou was still alive and Shi Xie was still alive, Shi Xie jumped out on the spot. Anyway, he had asked someone about Chen Zichuan, and he was still very reliable. As long as he didn't act recklessly. If you do it, the other party will definitely not target you.
Is Shi Xie messing up? No, not at all. This time Shi Xie was basically out of public interest, so when Chen Xi looked at him doubtfully, Shi Xie didn't dodge at all. That's what he was thinking. This time I I am really dedicated to serving the public good, so I would like to ask you what you think.
"As for Jiaozhou, it's okay to say it. Inconvenient access and the only way to go by water are not a problem for us. It's just that compared to Yangzhou, moving people is a big problem." Chen Xi said hesitantly.
Shi Xie was out of public interest, Chen Xi really had nothing to say, not to mention that Jiaozhou was indeed a very good choice, but that area had not been developed yet.
"Relocating people is not only not a trouble, but also a good thing for the next situation. This matter must not be dealt with by farmers. I heard that the southern part of Guishang is also hot and humid. In this case, it would be more beneficial to train in Jiaozhou now. ." Shi Xie said with strong confidence.
Sun Ce rolled his eyes when he heard this. The reason he didn't take action against Shi Xie in the end was because the environment there was so bad and the roads were also problematic.
Chen Xi looked at Shi Xie's calm manner as he talked and had to sigh. There really is no mediocre person who can sit in this position. Even Shi Xie, who has always had no sense of existence, has such a kind of attitude. know.
But it’s right to think about it. After so much experience, who can still hold a stable position, even the weakest one, depends on who he compares with.
Chen Xi looked at Shi Xie silently, but Shi Xie remained calm and composed. He had selfish motives, but he was indeed justified, and what he said was correct. Compared with Jing Yang, Jiaozhou was more suitable, and it was the right choice for everyone. appropriate in terms of.
"What the governor of Jiaozhou said is wrong." Yu Fan stood up and argued directly, "Jingyang is a vast land with few people and even more barbaric areas. Just take a piece of land and plant it. There is no need for Jiaozhou. As for the hot and humid miasma, the generals who went ahead have already
There is a solution.”
Shi Xie smiled and said nothing, silently glanced at all the court officials, and then looked at Chen Xi. Everyone immediately understood what Shi Xie was thinking, and immediately cursed the old fox secretly.
"It's not a bad choice." Chen Xi glanced sideways at the others and said with a smile. Since Shi Xie had this idea and it was well-founded, there was nothing wrong with giving the opportunity to him.
"Yangzhou, leave a piece for Yangzhou." After hearing Chen Xi's words, Cookie immediately sent a message.
"Don't worry, I still know that some things cannot be left to one person." Chen Xi smiled, and then looked at Sun Ce without waiting for Shi Xie to show surprise, "Don't you say a few words?"
"What are you talking about?" Sun Ce rolled his eyes, "Unless this thing is planted in my yard, it is also a hot thing on whose land it is planted. Can I eat it first?"
"You can see clearly." Chen Xi smiled and said, "Well, I'll give you another task. Help find some people from the mountains who are good at repelling insects. Planting in Jiaozhou is indeed a good choice, but Jiangdong must also be planted. I want to come over to Shanyue.
There are also such characters.”
Shi Xie looked at Sun Ce and felt helpless. In this case, there will naturally be a comparison of output, and his hands must be cleaner. Although he didn't want to go too far at the beginning, but he secretly took advantage of Mo Mo and gave it away.
Yes, he still has ideas.
"Okay, there is indeed such a strange person in Shanyue." Sun Ce nodded. Although he found this matter very troublesome, Chen Xi assigned it to Sun Ce, and Sun Ce was very happy to accept it.
And compared to Shi Xie's thoughts, Sun Ce had no idea of giving it away. He only had the idea of producing a crop and eating it.
Therefore, compared to Shi Xie's expression that showed no selfishness, Sun Ce's expression that just said, I will at least eat a bowl of it after I grow it made Chen Xi feel more at ease.
"Don't have any thoughts of harming the public and enriching yourself." Chen Xi looked at Sun Ce and said with a smile. Sun Ce curled his lips indifferently. Sun Hou looked at the peach garden, do you think I should eat it or not? You have seen a cook who starved to death, don't you think so? On the contrary.
Shi Xie frowned silently.
"Don't wait and expect to get it in advance. The soldiers will eat the output of the military camp first." After Chen Xi finished laughing, his eyes suddenly turned cold and glanced at everyone in the court, "Dongtinghou, remember to calculate a distribution
Make sure you don’t miss any of the materials.”
After Liu Ye stood up, he nodded to Chen Xi, and then Man Chong also activated his spiritual talent and stood up immediately. His cold coffin face glanced around the court officials present. It felt like facing an inhuman iron law.
It made all the court officials shudder.
"Everyone feels it too. I'm easy to talk to, but Tingwei is not easy to talk to." After Chen Xi noticed that everyone felt something was wrong after being glanced at by Man Chong, he immediately said with a chuckle.
Although all the court officials were a little in awe, they didn't say anything when they saw this. They just nodded to express that they would keep this in mind.
