Chapter 942: Donate Money
If you want to build a smooth road, the current method is to dig rocks and make them into stone bricks to build roads, but digging rocks is too labor-intensive and time-consuming.
He had to find a way to replace it, so Xu Qing went around and thought of cement.
As a man who wrote history part-time in his previous life and experienced such absurd things as crossing in this life, he is still very clear about Lime's approach.
Under the current conditions, it is not a problem to build a cement workshop.
So Xu Qing waved his hand and generously approved the money.
Thanks to the first pot of gold accumulated when robbing bandits, otherwise he would have to lose money himself.
Moreover, not only roads have to be built, but also water conservancy projects have to be built. The docks and other facilities have to be taken care of, and the construction of canals must not be left behind.
not enough people?
His Majesty's palace, the prince's mansion, and another prince's mansion, let's put it away for now. It's not that they don't have a place to live, and they are free to build roads and water conservancy.
While building roads, the work of suppressing bandits has not stopped.
The spectacular phenomenon of directly mobilizing the most elite troops of Chu State to suppress bandits is not something that can be seen all the time.
Xu Qing, who has just stabilized now, has started to build infrastructure, and the bandits in Weizhou provide wages and food for the workers who work hard to build the infrastructure.
In this way, a virtuous circle is formed.
When the banditry in Weizhou is lifted, these infrastructures should be built.
Cement is surprisingly easy to use. The road paved after mixing with pebbles and small stones is not only flat and firm, but also very easy to maintain.
Of course, the bandit money on the mountain is very limited, and it won't last long at all, so there must be a new source of funds.
Fortunately, there are people who do this.
While Xu Qing is doing a lot of infrastructure construction here, Su Jiyuan is also handing over work with the state government and the Weizhou governor.
Here, the governor of Weizhou had just handed over his work, and when he was about to take up the post according to the documents issued by the Ministry of Officials, he was detained by Su Jiyuan on the spot.
There is a lot of evidence in the den of thieves that Xu Qing wiped out, proving that many corrupt officials in this government office had contacts with them, and the one who benefited the most was the governor of Weizhou. After the evidence was conclusive and was about to be captured, Su Jiyuan directly wrote a memorial and reported it to the emperor.
The emperor was also very giving face, so he approved it immediately, and then Su Jiyuan arrested the original governor of Weizhou.
This efficiency is simply leveraged.
They are all their own people.
It's still easy to get things done.
Copy this person's home! You write the memorial, and I cover the jade seal.
It was a pleasure to cooperate.
When Xu Qing saw the large amount of banknotes copied from the governor's mansion of Weizhou, he was even more happy.
Then Xu Qing used all the money to build infrastructure with a wave of his hand.
The Weizhou officials, big and small, who were already in danger, are now trembling even more, fearing that they will be the next target of surgery.
But they have nothing to do.
It's easy to run away by yourself, but what should you do with such a big family?
It is said that there are three fires for a new official to take office, and now the first fire has killed his predecessor.
There are two fires I don't know where to burn.
But the officials soon learned where the second fire was.
The day after Su Jiyuan ransacked the governor's house of Weizhou, he summoned all the officials of Weizhou to the state government office. Of course, many people complained that they were sick.
So Xu Qing allocated five hundred shadow guards to Su Jiyuan.
It doesn't matter if you call yourself sick!
As long as you are not dead, I will carry you over even if I have someone lift you up.
Under such strict operations, Weizhou went up to Biejia and down to the county magistrate, and all of them arrived at the state government within the stipulated time.
Originally, for an airborne superior like Su Jiyuan, these subordinates could actually use the information gap to evade the governor.
Because they have been evacuated twice, the governor of Weizhou appointed by the imperial court was either evaded by them for two years and died of illness, or they were in the same boat as them.
But this time it won't work, have you seen the elite soldiers in their hands?
You dare to stand up against others, and they dare to put a knife on your neck.
This one doesn't work, cut it off and replaced it with a new one.
Since His Majesty is so close, there is no need to go through the imperial court when the pension is issued, and the governor will directly make a report, and His Majesty will approve the note on the spot.
It's so easy to talk when you have soldiers in your hand.
At this time, Su Jiyuan was sitting in the lobby of the state government office, and the officials below bowed to Su Jiyuan one after another, seeing the governor.
Su Jiyuan was very proud when he saw this scene.
He used to be a county magistrate in Yong'an County, but he ended up attached to Guozhou City, and directly worked in the same place as the governor of the past. How can he have the majesty of a local parent official?
Don't mention that grievance.
Later, he came to the capital to be the governor of Jingzhao. Where is the capital? The rich and powerful gathered.
If one brick falls down, it may hit two people that you can't afford to mess with.
Now after arriving in Weizhou, I can finally enjoy the prestige of a parent official.
Although he was working in the same city as the emperor, the emperor didn't care about anything!
Seeing the slightly upturned corners of the lord's mouth at this time, the little officials below couldn't help but hold their breath, not daring to take a breath.
No one knows how much evidence the prince and his party have collected when suppressing the bandits, and who will be the next unlucky one.
After all, most of them have never been less enshrined by bandits.
But what they didn't expect was that Master Su didn't investigate whether they colluded with bandits to enrich their own pockets, but sighed.
Su Jiyuan sighed and said: "My colleagues, I am loved by His Majesty, and I was transferred to Weizhou to be the parent official of a state. It should have made the people rich and the world peaceful, but it is a pity. I am heartbroken. Here The common people are starved of food and naked, dare to ask colleagues, don’t you feel sad? Don’t you feel pity?”
At this moment, these Weizhou officials still don't know what kind of medicine is sold in Su Jiyuan's Calabash, and they all cupped their hands and said: "Master Shi Shi, we are deeply saddened!"
Su Jiyuan said with a compassionate expression: "I didn't expect that my colleagues are so concerned about the people and the world. Weizhou has officials like you. The people are very lucky, and the Chu country is very lucky!"
The Weizhou officials didn't dare to answer at this time, they knew all the shit they did, and the governor probably knew it too.
But looking at the appearance of Lord Inspector, it seems that he is not intentionally sarcastic. What is his real purpose?
Su Jiyuan glanced around, saw no one was talking, and finally got to the point: "Since all my colleagues are so concerned about the world and the people, now the treasury is empty and there is no money to build bridges, roads, and water conservancy projects. To seek the well-being of the common people, as the parents and officials of the common people, we should see it in our eyes and feel pain in our hearts. This official has decided to donate 10,000 taels for water conservancy in Weizhou!"
