There is a home in the depths of the white clouds

Chapter 392

Zhejiang Chengxuan Political Commissioner, referred to as Zhejiang Chief Political Department.

It is one of the thirteen Chief Secretary of Ming Dynasty.

This place is the name of the first-level administrative region in the southern Taihu Plain, Qiantang River Basin, Cao'e River Basin, Yongjiang River Basin, Jiaojiang River Basin, Oujiang River Basin and other places in the Ming Dynasty.

The chief envoy, Si Yamen, is stationed in Hangzhou.

Zhejiang is a standard fertile land in the south of the Yangtze River. Whoever can come here to be a political envoy and take charge of the administrative power of a district can be described as a fat post.

However, the superiors said that the governor of Songjiang Prefecture and the county magistrate of Huating County also went to office together!

Wu Youwei took the arrival report and went to find Yang Yiqing in a small carriage. After sitting opposite each other in the study, they all looked at each other.

Yang Yiqing spoke first: "Do you know... who is here?"

Wu Youwei shook his head: "I don't know.

If he knew earlier, he wouldn't be scratching his head like this. Wantong has gone to sea, and he doesn't even have anyone to talk to.

I had no choice but to come to Yang Yiqing.

But Yang Yiqing didn't know, the two of them sat facing each other for a while, Wu Youwei gave up completely and said: "Forget it, the soldiers come to cover up the soldiers who block the water, if the people who come are good, we will work hard together, if not...let's talk!"

Finally, in Qingpu County, Wu Youwei ate their specialties: bamboo shoots, amaranth and noodle fish.

He also talked to Yang Yiqing about the future development of Qingpu County before heading home. Wantong was not at home, so he dared not leave for too long.

It is the ninth day of September again, the Double Ninth Festival.

Wu Youwei ate the Double Ninth Cake made by his younger sister Narcissus lamentingly for himself. Ever since Wantong had a navy, he had often gone to sea and never celebrated the Double Ninth Festival with him.

Just when he was mourning, there was an eclipse on the first day of Guichou in September.

Wu Youwei discovered that the solar eclipse really favored Daming!

Basically once every three years, or even once every two years, is it related to the Little Ice Age?

Because it's getting colder now.

Yimao, according to an unknown adult in the court, anyway, Emperor Xianzong exempted the autumn grain from the Nanji flood for this reason.

This year just arrived in autumn, and the newly farmed land in the north has counted more than [-] shi of grain.

Wu Youwei remembers that part of the city wall is the "Ming Great Wall" that has been preserved to this day.

It is said that after Jiajing, the east side wall was built along the north of Xuanfu, Datong and Jizhou.

At the same time, the magistrate of Songjiang Prefecture and the county magistrate of Huating County also took office together.

And he sent a message to Wu Youwei, asking him to visit Shangguan when he had time.

Wu Youwei received the visitor directly: "It's really a coincidence that the army is going on an expedition. Now the county and Qingpu county magistrates are supporting us here. It is really impossible to go. It's better to wait for the army to return triumphantly, and the county and Qingpu county magistrates to go again To visit Shangguan... How?

The visitor is said to be a head arrester from the Songjiang Mansion, and he came here for work. After hearing this, he clasped his fists and said, "Obey!"

He walked away easily, but Wu Youwei was worried: who is here?

The post given by the other party did not write his name, only his official position.

But then he didn't have time to think about it, because Cheng Pengyun's Cheng clan moved with his family.

All of them from the Cheng family came here. There are eight families in total. Because the Cheng family has a rule that a man in his [-]s has no children before he can take a concubine. The members of the eight houses are all descendants. Three or four hundred people came, but they did not settle down. In Shanghai, but settled in Qingpu County.They bought a piece of land in Yang Yiqing's hands as a gathering place for the tribe, and it was called "Chengjia Village".

Wu Youwei didn't know if there was such a place in history, but now it belongs to Qingpu County, and because it is a newly built village, Yang Yiqing followed the county's construction regulations and built it very well. Now other villages are not happy .

You can't let Daling do this, you built a village for your relatives, and our village is also very broken?

But Yang Yiqing also said that the construction of the village cost money, if you spend money, I will build it for you.

Who doesn't want their village to be safe?Who doesn't want to be as impregnable as Xujiahui and Lujiazui?

The Japanese pirates and pirates are not coming now, but it does not mean that they will not come for generations to come.

People who live by the sea are worried that in the future, this life will be safe, and their descendants must also be safe!

So one by one, they started to search for their own family savings, planning to build a safe village to live in...

After making arrangements here, Cheng Pengyun went to visit Wu Youwei over there.

"Why did you go to Qingpu County?" Wu Youwei complained as soon as they met, "I have already prepared the house for you."

"I can't help it. My father thought it would be better to live next to relatives, so he went to Qingpu County." Cheng Yunpeng said apologetically, "Plus Ying Ning also promised to be my child's husband."

"Ah?" Wu Youwei was stunned: "To teach?"

"No, no, no!" Cheng Pengyun hurriedly waved his hand: "He only went to the Cheng Clan School occasionally to teach, and he was able to get the advice of the second place in the court. Those boys are very lucky. Besides, Ying Ning is now an official of the court, how can he be a teacher for others? Well, this is not Beijing, there are many things to do every day."

Wu Youwei was depressed: "I have a lot of things to do too? But I will also go to teach the students...

Occasionally, when he becomes addicted to teaching, he will go to Shanghai Comprehensive College, take classes one by one, and study each subject. Does he feel refreshed?

It can also win the admiration of many students. For Wu Youwei, this is his favorite sense of accomplishment.

"If you are free, you can go over and give lectures." Cheng Pengyun wished that Wu Youwei would go too, he is a flower lover after all!

"Huh?" Wu Youwei looked at him strangely: "You probably won't understand the content of my lecture."

There is a folk saying that "wealth does not last for three generations". For those who have been in business for three generations, money comes too easily, and business goes smoothly. Gradually, they start spending money lavishly. Take care, as time goes by, it will be difficult not to think of a prodigal son.

Only by letting them know that "there are people beyond the people, and there is a sky beyond the sky" and "money is not omnipotent" will motivate them to fight.

This is the thinking of the Cheng clan.

The content of Wu Youwei's lectures is varied, from the most basic Chinese and mathematics to the new subjects of chemistry, physics, etc. Basically, there is no link with the imperial examination.

Would the Cheng clan society welcome such a class?

"No matter what you say, it's their honor if you can go." Cheng Pengyun didn't care about that: "Also good at arithmetic, you can't go out and be a nerd, you can't even count.

That would shame the ancestors of the Cheng family!

They started their own business, but their descendants don't know how to count, and it would be embarrassing to say it.

"Alright then!" Wu Youwei planned to give it a try. Anyway, in his own school, there are quite a few students who are pretty good. They are quite interested in chemistry and physics.

Of course, children must develop in an all-round way. What they need to learn now is to recognize characters and numbers. When they are older, they will start to study systematically by categories. Later, when they are in college, they will specialize in a certain. ...

Just like Tao Wen Academy, the current Tao Wen Academy is more like a pocket comprehensive university.

Cui Tieniu and the others are the first batch of students who are about to graduate.

And Wu Youwei is currently working in the county government office, all of them are his students. Although these students are not of high background, they are all very smart, and those who are not smart are also very pragmatic. Otherwise, he would not be able to make drastic changes so easily. Shanghai County has been rebuilt.

It's easy to use your own team.

The person who served as the county magistrate for him was the child of Dashan and his wife, Dashan and Wu Youwei's surnames. Because his parents and grandparents were slaves, even if he was expelled, his generation would not be able to take the imperial examination. So he brought his two younger brothers and two cousins ​​over to help Wu Youwei.

This kid named Wu Jiaqing, this year, is as mature as 28 years old. He is much more responsible than Wu Youwei, and he works in the yamen every day.

And Wu Youwei also confidently entrusted Ruoda to him to deal with the yamen. This kid has been tempered in the past two years, and he has become more and more sophisticated.

After complaining to Cheng Pengyun, Cheng Pengyun got to the point with him: "How about the glass business?"

"I've thought about it, you can do this..." Wu Youwei murmured to him, and Cheng Pengyun was greatly impressed: "If you go into business, no one can make more money than you!"

"That's right!" Wu Youwei shook his head and said, "It's a pity, I have never been a businessman, otherwise I would have made a lot of money, the richest man in the world, who else can I do?"

Cheng Pengyun thought that being compared to a business genius by himself would make this Tanhualang angry, but he found that the former Tanhualang and the current county magistrate are still so interesting.

"If you agree, let's do this!" Wu Youwei said: "If you open a commercial firm in Qingpu County, you will pay taxes, but in my place, there are at least three years of tax exemption.

It has been three years since he came to Shanghai County. At the beginning, he cheated on Emperor Xianzong because he suppressed the tax for six years. After six years, he would have to pay the tax.

But now he has asked people to start counting taxes, and strictly enforced the tax policy of the Ming Dynasty. Every month, a tax list is given to those who should pay taxes, but he just told them to let them know how much the court exempted them from. Money, remember that if you want to pay taxes in the future, you must be proactive.

"Yes!" Cheng Pengyun said: "I just want to choose a place to open a business now.

"I have a place for you to take a look at..." Wu Youwei took out a rolled drawing from his bookshelf, opened it, and showed it to Cheng Pengyun: "How is it here?"

This is a place on the outskirts of the new city, where the terrain is open and the environment is good. There is a big house with three entrances and a courtyard. The rear cover room is built into three rows of rooms, which can be used for people to live in or as warehouses; Behind is a small square, which can be used as an open-air unloading yard.

There is also a very wide driveway, which can pass two trucks side by side; there is also water, clean, hygienic, tidy and beautiful environment.

Cheng Pengyun said: "Go and see the scene!"

He didn't dare to nod even if he didn't see the real thing. Wu Youwei immediately dressed up and went with him to look at the house.

The entrance is a commercial street, and Wu Youwei plans to attract business and capital to come here, all of which are places to set up commercial banks, because it was originally designed as a commercial street.

All the traffic is trucks, so it is also close to the pier, and there is a specially widened waterway for cargo ships, which are favorable conditions for the commercial street.

Moreover, there are city defense garrisons here. If there is any fire or theft, someone will come to deal with it soon.

Cheng Pengyun looked at it carefully, and finally nodded with satisfaction: "How much?"

Wu Youwei drew a number, and Cheng Pengyun shook his head: "It's too expensive!"

"It's not expensive anymore. I'll give you a family price. If you change someone else, you need this amount! There must be requirements." Wu Youwei said solemnly: "There are no businesses that corrupt the atmosphere, such as brothels, Chu halls and gambling houses. Gambling halls are not allowed to open, once found, they will be arrested immediately, their family property will be confiscated, and all personnel will be sent to the south gold mine to mine."

And there will be no pardon!

This is a bit serious, because it is an isolated island. If the people who go there don’t tell me, how can the people who work there know that the outside world is amnesty?

There is no pity for anyone to die.

Moreover, there are vicious pirates and Japanese pirates in charge there. Every time Wantong leads troops to sea, he will stay there for a few days, firstly to replenish fresh water, secondly to deliver supplies, and thirdly to serve as a deterrent.

With the frequent exchanges of officers and soldiers, those talents dare not be presumptuous.

Cheng Pengyun smiled: "Is my Cheng family like that? I've heard Ying Ning say it a long time ago.

Shanghai County is a very special place.

"It's just that it's been a bit hard for Ying Ning." Cheng Pengyun said with a smile, "I heard that when he first closed the brothel Chu halls, the other party's reaction was fierce. If it wasn't for the overwhelming army, he would not have been able to successfully close those brothel Chu halls.
