    Xiong Changhao agreed to the banquet envoy, and Jia Lian allowed him to discuss the remaining matters with Wang Ziteng.  Jia Lian didn't dare to guard against Wang Ziteng, and he couldn't guard him either.

    Since Jia Yun wanted to be a county magistrate, Jia Lian naturally made arrangements for him. He asked Wang Ziteng for a map of Fujian and Zhejiang. He followed the map to see where two-crop rice could be promoted and where sweet potatoes could be promoted.

    Jia Lian told Jia Yun: "What I mean is, if you want to go, go to a small mountainous county where others don't want to go. It's easy to get results in such a place. There are few people and it's easy to manipulate. After a year, if you make results, I will promote you."  If you become a prefect, others won't dare to show their teeth, what do you mean?"

    Jia Yun nodded frequently: "My nephew listens to my second uncle."

    Jia Lian was thinking about Du Ruoxin, Jia Yun still had no son, so she couldn't help but worry, and said: "Actually, it would be good for you to just stay with me to gain experience, and your wife can live with your aunt."

    Jia Yun smiled: "To be honest with my second uncle, I am going to take up the post alone. I will come back to pick her up after I straighten things out."

    Jia Lian nodded: "That's okay."

    Wang Ziteng has already negotiated with Xiong Changhao. Wang Ziteng gave up two capable experience to Xiong Changhao. Jia Lian also sent two scribes to Xiong Changhao, and asked Xiaobaozi to assign a team of men to follow Xiong Changhao on errands.  He also told Xiong Changhao that it would be best to set up the City Boat Division within one month.

    In order to get familiar with the officialdom of Haijiang as quickly as possible, as well as the ties between these officials and the officialdom of Kyoto, and to understand the nature and abilities of these officials, Jia Lian asked Wang Ziteng for two capable masters.

    Wang Ziteng raised his eyebrows: "You didn't recruit any staff in Beijing?"

    Jia Lian chuckled: "Okay, Uncle Lin asked me to recruit a hundred people, and Prince Xi asked me to recruit two hundred people. I don't know the depth, and I thought about it. My father-in-law will definitely have many people in his hands. If my son-in-law comes, how can my father-in-law get it?"  I have to support one or two. If I recruit all the people, wouldn't my father-in-law have no room for more people? Therefore, my son-in-law only recruited fifty people, plus Yun'er, Master Xiong, Master Yan and Master Jiang,  Fifty-four people in total.¡±

    Upon hearing this, Wang Ziteng pointed at Jia Lian and nodded several times, and then laughed: "You, you, I'm convinced of you, and you've even taken this into account. It seems that if I don't leave the military and political affairs to you, you are  I won't give up. Humph, it's a mess, who cares?"

    Jia Lian hurriedly bowed and bowed: "Father-in-law, don't get me wrong. Don't be a hands-off shopkeeper. My son-in-law just wants to discuss matters in the court in a few days. I can't cast a shadow on the military and political personnel in Haijiang. Therefore, my son-in-law is sincerely asking for advice."  , and asked my father-in-law to teach me."

    Although Wang Ziteng felt unhappy, he also knew that Jia Lian's words were reasonable. Moreover, he had always hoped that Jia Lian could take charge of his own affairs. Sooner or later, he would leave Haijiang and go on inspections in other provinces. If these human and financial resources are not given to Jia Lian, will it be easier for others in the future?

    "He is all about official career and economics and doesn't teach Jia Lian, how can he put him in the coffin?"

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? out out of three days, Jia Xu humbly consulted Wang Ziteng, and sorted out the personnel in the officialdom of Fujian and Zhejiang, just as he had sorted out the precious memories left by his grandfather, Jia Lian memorized in his mind the files that Wang Ziteng had compiled for him.

    " Later, Wang Ziteng talked with Jia Lian about the personnel and customs of Fujian and Zhejiang. If Wang Ziteng couldn't remember it for a while, Jia Lian could remind him.

    Wang Ziteng was very surprised: "You have such a good memory! No wonder you suddenly woke up and got on the high school apron list. No wonder your grandfather had high hopes for you, but you have such extraordinary talent!"

    After two days, Jia Lian basically had a clear picture of those who could not be offended in the official circles of Fujian and Zhejiang.

    The officialdom of the entire Haijiang area is like a small court, and the situation is complicated.

    Wang Ziteng reminded Jia Lian emphatically, saying: "The commander of the Fujian Guard Station should be a member of the emperor. You must pay special attention to this person, lest he has the right to secretly report."

    Jia Lian couldn't help but think of the two brass-backed secret boxes and daggers that the emperor had given him before leaving.

    Jia Lian therefore took out the gem-handled dagger that the emperor had given to him: "This was a reward from your majesty when my son-in-law left the capital. It is said to be a self-defense item that Huang Dalong gave to his majesty."

    Wang Ziteng took the hand and looked at it for a long time: "But it is this thing. It seems that His Majesty still has high hopes for you. He also knows you very well and knows that you have a good relationship with Lu Ping. He has specially reconciled the relationship between you and Huang Dalong. He does not want Huang Dalong to be with you."  Fight in the ring. You have won the Holy Heart! This way at least you won¡¯t be afraid of someone getting maggots behind your back and dying inexplicably!"

    Jia Lian was stunned: "What you said is really scary."

    The prince chuckled: "How did you remind me in the first place and forget it? My relationship with the Holy Emperor was better than that between you and the eldest prince now. However, in the face of major interests, these small feelings turned into ashes. As the saying goes, being with the emperor is like a companion.  Tiger?¡±

    Jia Lian was horrified when he heard this. He never imagined that one day he would become someone the emperor was afraid of!

    Wang Ziteng patted Jia Lian and said, "However, you are right. The eldest prince is more open-minded than the late emperor. Furthermore, you are not yet above ten thousand people. If the sky falls, there will still be a tall man above you."

    Jia Lian returned to Linhai City, and the gold-plated plaque for the governor's Yamen had been hung up.

    The Governor's Yamen is very wide and divided into the front hall and the back hall. The front hall has two entrances, namely the lobby and the second hall.

    The lobby is very majestic, with five large bays, and is solemn and solemn. Like the Rongxi Hall in Rongguo Mansion, it is generally not used. It will only be opened during celebrations or to welcome imperial envoys.

    The second hall is the place where ordinary people say that officials go to court to inquire about cases. It is also called the court.

    There are five wing rooms on both sides of the court hall, and five rooms in the east wing, which are the meeting halls and where the chief officials take a break, meet with their staff, or discuss matters.  The five rooms in the west wing are the notice hall, which stores various files of the government office. The files in the yamen are stored here, making it convenient for the staff and scribes to review the files and organize and file them.

    There is a flower wall at the back of the second hall. Behind the flower wall is the back office, also called the back house or the inner house, which is the official residence of the governor.  The official residence is also divided into a front yard and a back yard. The front yard is where the governor works, and the back yard is separated by a hanging flower door. After entering the hanging flower door, you can see the backyard and the five-bay upper room.  This is where the officials and their families live.  That is, the residence of Jia Lian, Sister Feng and their children.

    There are many small courtyards on the east and west sides of the back house. These courtyards are where the governor used to house his staff, clerks, and servants.  Master Jiang brought by Jia Lian, Master Yan, the fifty staff members, twenty personal guards of Jia Lian, as well as foreign affairs officer Xing'er Zhao'er, Chang'er Long'er, Wang'er, Yaozi and Fengshou all live here.  .

    While Sister Feng was receiving Mrs. Daotai and the prefect's wife from the two provinces in the back house, Jia Lian was also meeting with officials from Fujian and Zhejiang provinces in the second hall. There were more than 130 prefectures and counties in the 19 prefectures of Fujian and Zhejiang, plus the large and small ones from the two provinces.  There are no less than three hundred people in the small guardhouse.

    Fortunately, Jia Lian was very familiar with the guard posts in the two provinces, and the Municipal Boat Division was located in Mingzhou, Ningbo Prefecture. Lu Ping's Yongding Army was already assisting in starting the construction. Therefore, Jia Lian decided to meet with various prefectures first.  In order to understand the spring plowing situation of various prefectures and counties under the rule.

    Jia Lian came to Haijiang and was ordered to do two things. One was to reopen the city and the other was to implement the New Deal and the one-whip method.  If you want to collect taxes based on land, you must restore land cultivation in Fujian and Zhejiang.

    In these years of war, countless people have abandoned their farmland and fled to wasteland. Jia Lian is very worried about the problem of land abandonment.

    Jia Lian was mentally prepared in advance, but when he listened to the prefects describing the conditions of the counties under their rule, Jia Lian was still very shocked.  But it turns out that not only Gansu has eaten up all its grain due to famine, Zhejiang also has this problem.  Especially the coastal prefectures and counties that are hardest hit by Japanese plagues.

    Hearing this, Jia Lian looked at the Zhejiang Chief Envoy: "Since there is no grain for spring plowing, why don't you see any memorial coming to Beijing?"

    Du Zhongkang, the chief envoy, stood up and smiled bitterly: "Japanese pirates have been rampant in recent years, and countless people have fled to other places, causing the land to become barren. Although the war ended at the end of last year and people returned to their hometowns one after another this spring, there is still a shortage of people, and the people are in danger of starving to death at any time. Everyone  The prefectures and counties reported the matter one after another, and the lower officials also reported the matter to Mr. Feng Tang, the former governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, and Mr. Wang of the Nine Provinces. In addition, the ministers also reported the matter to the emperor. It is a pity.  The imperial court has not approved it, and the ministers have no choice but to organize themselves. We cannot let the people who have finally returned to their hometowns go out to flee the famine!"

    Jia Lian nodded. Three people in the palace died one after another last year. As a general rule, in order to prevent someone from causing trouble during the national mourning period, local officials are not allowed to enter the capital at will.  Furthermore, Emperor Qianyuan died in the twelfth lunar month, so perhaps he did not have time to read the secret documents of the chief envoy.

    Jia Lian had a bitter taste in his mouth. When he came, he was still thinking of solving the famine problem in Gansu for the emperor. He did not expect that as soon as he came, he would be faced with the fact that people in Fujian and Zhejiang were about to starve to death.  Not only must we immediately try to raise food to help the victims, but we must also try to replant crops, otherwise people will starve to death in the autumn.

    Jia Lian knew that he must immediately find out the details of the entire Fujian and Zhejiang rule. Jia Lian felt that just listening to what others said would not work.  He took advantage of the break to summon Xing'er and told him: "Go quickly to find Shui Wen and ask him to send the victims he recruited locally. After changing their clothes, they will return to their hometowns to see the spring plowing conditions in each county and the lives of the people."  Please let me know the situation within three days."

    "Afterwards, Jia Lian ordered Zhao'er: "Go to the inspection office and ask the third master if he knows about the situation of desertion in various prefectures and counties. Don't say more about the rest."

    Jia Lian was very worried. If Wang Ziteng suppressed the secret and did not take remedial measures, what should he do?

    Jia Lian was struggling, and Wang Ziteng came in person.

    Jia Lian was startled and hurriedly gave up his seat: "Father-in-law, why are you here?"

    Wang Ziteng sneered: "If I don't come and explain it to you, why don't you label me as a corrupt official?"
