Chapter 344 Not one person is waiting.
"Why do you want to live in the Shen family's mansion?" Wu Youwei was puzzled: "Isn't the county government pretty good?"
"My lord, it's very good that it's the current county government." Old Zhang said with a wry smile, "Your Majesty came here only four years ago. He disliked the dilapidated county government and refused to move in. He only liked the grandeur of the Shen family mansion... ..
In fact, the Shen family is a scholarly family, and there are two sons in the family who are studying abroad. The family property is just some fields, and the most valuable thing is probably their book collection.
Their house has a high courtyard wall, a low gate, and a place to hide, so they avoided the pirates and pirates when they came several times.
It's just that Shanghai County is too dilapidated. They and several other businesses that were doing business originally planned to move out, but they were reluctant to part with their ancestral home and were still hesitating.
Then Wu Youwei and the others came.
Generally, the county magistrate who takes office will hold a feast to treat guests, inviting local wealthy households and some elders and elders to meet, have a meal, and get acquainted.
Wu Youwei was different, as soon as he arrived, he kept his feet on the ground, didn't pay attention to those red tapes, and instead got along with them.
Coupled with the pressure of Wantong's army, certain wealthy families stopped going out immediately, and their voices were silenced.
Then he was busy all the time, until now, when he had some free time, the warship came again. Now, the people who went fishing were full of confidence, and they no longer went fishing in the sea with fear.
Sometimes, a fishing boat was escorted by two warships to the open sea several times, and brought back such a big sea fish!
People whose life is getting better, of course, are the ones who support Wu Youwei the most. The mass base is the most reliable. Those wealthy households later realized that it was too late. Wu Youwei is still very busy. On the river embankment, it is in the county government office, or it is to go to the surrounding villages to see.
Everyone has not stopped working, repairing the dock today, and maintaining the military port tomorrow. Anyway, when you are not idle, the wages are high, the food is good, and the conditions at home have improved a lot. Now even children know that drinking water is necessary. Drink plain water, wash your hands before and after meals...
So until now, Wu Youwei didn't know who the wealthy households in the county were.
"Then I'll live in the county government office this time." Wu Youwei said, "Aren't there guest rooms in the county government office?"
"Okay, stay in the guest room of the county government office." Old Zhang said, "It's best to let Master Wan and Master Zhang come."
It's also good to support the master.
"Well, let the kitchen prepare." Wu Youwei said: "At any rate, he is also a Shangguan.
Lao Zhang went to the back to talk to the cook, and Wu Youwei touched his chin. This is to see if Shanghai County is fattening up?
Although he has never been involved in politics, he has studied.
Although modern politics is quite different from ancient times, based on his many years of experience, it is certain that this person is not kind, but he does not know what kind of "unkindness" it is.
Lao Zhang arranged the cook and came back again: "I forgot to discuss with you, how will I greet you tomorrow?"
"Welcome?" Wu Youwei didn't think about welcoming him at all: "Just open the door to welcome him?"
"No, the last time the magistrate came, the county magistrate asked all our villagers to kneel down the street to greet him, it was a big scene." Lao Zhang said: "There is also an incense table to burn incense!
Wu Youwei understood, it's just a scene.
"What kind of incense are you burning? Why are you kneeling to welcome? This is not welcoming the gods." Wu Youwei didn't do these things: "This is what I do, just open the door to welcome everyone, and let everyone do what they should do, it's not that How particular.
He knew that officials in ancient times had a lot of power, but setting up incense tables, burning incense and kneeling to greet them was too pretentious.
Wu Youwei felt that it was a reason to show that he was superior to others, rather than the people sincerely welcoming him.
When he came, basically no one knew him, okay?
As for the scouts who were leading the vanguard, they arrived at the place without prior notice.
Wu Youwei didn't put on a show after he came here. Even when he was the busiest, he went to the construction site, just like the workers there, holding a large bowl and eating a big pot of vegetables.
Such an unassuming official, of course, gained people's approval faster.
Old Zhang Yiyi didn't prepare for anything, and he was even more afraid that Wu Youwei would suffer: "My lord, if you do this, you will offend the Shangguan."
Mr. Fu Zun is not a kind person.
In the past, they were all called Mr. Fu Yin, but after the penultimate county magistrate flattered them, they changed their honorific title to "Master Fu Zun".
"Don't worry, he won't be jumping for long." Wu Youwei didn't mind giving his subordinate a reassurance: "It doesn't matter if I take care of him or not."
As soon as he said this, Lao Zhang was confused.
It happened that Zhang Shen came over to give Wu Youwei something, and he smiled when he saw Lao Zhang like this: "Don't worry too much, your lord's backing is much bigger than that little magistrate."
"Why is Mr. Zhang here?" Wu Youwei looked at the things in his hand: "Do you have any other requirements for the drawings?"
"Oh, it's like this, can you make the fire wall in our bedroom bigger?" Zhang Shen whispered: "It's easy to get cold hands and feet in winter..."
No matter how hot this place is, it can also be cold sometimes, Zhang Shen is now constantly using the brazier every day.
This is only mid-September, which is the leap to September. It might be so cold in October.
"Yes." Wu Youwei swiped: "In the future, there will be a garden here, and if you want to treat guests to dinner, you can do it here.
Anyway, the land is so big now, it doesn't cost the land to move casually.
After Wu Youwei built a military camp for Wantong, Wantong asked him to build a military supervisor's mansion for Zhang Shen.
This mansion was built according to the layout of Beijing Central Courtyard. It is just a five-entry mansion with an east garden and three cross-courtyards on the west side, which can be used as a guest courtyard.
The backseat house was built into a two-story building, and behind it was a pond full of lotus flowers. You can enjoy the scenery from the small building.
On the opposite side of the pond is a carved wall. Behind the wall was a field overgrown with weeds, but Wu Youwei turned it into a servant's room.
"Okay." Zhang Shen is very satisfied with his new home, especially because it was designed by Wu Youwei himself, which gave him enough face: "But when I entered our house earlier, I wanted a small place. When you are free, you can Stretch your muscles and bones, practice martial arts or something." Zhang Shen pointed to him and said, "Our family is also a military supervisor, isn't it?" "Yes!" Wu Youwei slapped his head: "It's mine, I forgot to arrange it.
The eunuchs of the Daming Overseer Army, at any rate, knew how to do things, even if they were flamboyant, they could ride horses and wield big knives.
Seeing Wu Youwei changing the blueprint for him, Zhang Shen sighed and said, "Our family doesn't have the kung fu of the Eastern leader, otherwise we could still hurt people with flying needles..."
Wu Youwei had a black line on his face: "My lord, it's all fabricated by novels."
It's not enough for an old monk to get stuck in it, so is it necessary to catch up with countless father-in-laws in the palace?
"Master Wu, tell me, is there any "Sunflower Treasure"?" Zhang Shen said with longing, "It would be great if our family could find "Sunflower Treasure". Listen to this name, how suitable it is for our family ah?"
"What's wrong with this name?" Wu Youwei was puzzled: "Does it have something to do with you?"
By the way, Jin Dada is a great god who will only be available hundreds of years later. You....wouldn't live to that time?
"The eunuch clothes our family wears, the patch on the chest is in the shape of a sunflower." Zhang Shen said it with confidence: "It is also called the big sunflower picture...
* ...
Wu Youwei...! ! ! "
Jin Dashen is really too rigorous, there are so many particulars in the fictional title of a compiled book.
But to be honest, it really has nothing to do with him!
The next day, after arranging a lot of things, Wu Youwei calculated how many acres of cultivated land next year, how many grain seeds would be needed, and how much grain might be produced in the county government...
In addition, Wu Youwei intends to attract investment.
At this time, Shanghai County was not as developed as later generations, and there were no special products, such as those modern Shanghai specialties, such as Takahashi muffins, pear paste candies, steamed buns, dried tofu, Nanhui peaches, Chongming hairy crabs, etc. It is a thing of later generations.
The current specialties are basically seafood products, such as large yellow croaker, small yellow croaker, big crab, and small crab, all have a certain time limit.
Fresh ingredients that tend to go bad if you don't eat them.
Dried fish and salted fish are not used. These things can be stored for a long time, but they are available in coastal areas, and they are worthless at all. You can buy a cart for one tael of silver!
So what he wants to do is special products, special products from Shanghai County, special products that can be stored for a long time without deterioration.
Wu Youwei struggled in his mind for a long time before he remembered one, "Wufangzhai" dim sum, but after thinking about it again, it seems to be from Jiaxing, right?
The current Jiaxing County has nothing to do with Shanghai County.
And dim sum is something to eat fresh.
A big family naturally has a cook who can make fresh dim sum for the host family to enjoy.
Small households don’t have the habit of eating dim sum. At most, people come to any dim sum shop and call it two or two, just to put on a front.
At weddings and funerals, they make their own snacks, and there is no reason to buy them outside.
Wu Youwei was worried, this place has nothing to do now, how can he revitalize the business?
His goal is to let the people have money in their pockets...
At this time, Zhang Dasen from the old Zhang family ran in: "My lord, my lord! Your lord Fuyin is here!"
Lao Zhang’s real name is Zhang Mumu, because wood floats in the water, and those who live near the sea think that such a name can bless Lao Zhang to float back even if he falls into the sea.
So Lao Zhang named the eldest in the family Zhang Damu, the second Zhang Dalin, and the third Zhang Dasen.
There is also a daughter in the family, named Zhang Taozi.
They are all from the names next to the wooden characters. They are already engaged to Zhang Shuisheng next door, and they plan to get married after the new year.
This time, Lao Zhang deliberately asked his bright-eyed eldest son to stand on the watchtower at the gate of the city and watch. Once he found someone coming, he quickly signaled Zhang Dalin below him and waved the signal flag. Zhang Dalin saw his elder brother signal Yes, run back quickly.
Zhang Dasen was watching from the gate of the county government office. When he saw the second brother coming from a distance, he knew that someone was coming. He turned his head and rushed in, telling the adults to go!
So he rushed into the county office, ran all the way into the lobby of the back office, and came to report with a howl.
"Oh, come here, why are you running?" Wu Youwei was interrupted, so he had no choice but to stop thinking about this matter. Seeing Zhang Dasen running out of breath, he hurriedly said: "Sit down. Take a break!"
"No, I can't sit!" Zhang Dasen panted heavily with a red face, "My lord, hurry up and greet me!"
"Oh." Wu Youwei stood up slowly: "I'll just go, you two stay in the room.
Wu Youwei didn't want Wantong and Zhang Shen to accompany him to welcome the prefect of Songjiang.
"Let's go with Master Wan." Unexpectedly, Zhang Shen stood up and stretched himself: "There is a good show to watch."
Wu Youwei was puzzled: "Huh?"
Wantong also stood up: "Let's go."
He spoke more succinctly, Wu Youwei was stunned, and then followed the two of them, but he felt that they might be supporting him, but there was no need to wait for that magistrate at 1], right?
I was a little puzzled and doubtful, but now was not the time to ask the truth, all the way to the gate of the county government office, those people were still there.
In fact, according to the rules, it is enough for them to receive higher-level officials and discuss political affairs in the third hall of the county government, but it is Mr. Fu Yin who came, so they have to be greeted at the gate.
But Wantong pointed out: "You go."
'Myself? "Wu Youwei pointed to himself.
"Yes!" Wan Tao said, "We are not waiting alone."
Wu Youwei...! ! "
