Song Jiu thought repeatedly and finally decided that life is precious, love is more expensive, and risk is an opportunity. He looked up and said, "Two Kings, I'm gone, but I can't go to Jingnan as an inspector, just give me an excuse."

This is not a inspection of several pit mines, but a whole way. The inspector is a commissioner, not a permanent commissioner, but there are usually at least a supervisor like a censor, or a minister of the museum, or a minister of two systems. Gao Xi, who had an accident in the summer, inspected Shandong as an imperial edict, and inspected the sufferings and unjust prisons of the people on behalf of the emperor, paid attention to the political achievements of officials from all over the country, understood the people's ideas, and even the local military.

Which one is a small scattered official inspector?

"It doesn't matter, I just give you a name so that you can take a look around."

Song Jiu went back in a daze.

Not to mention that the four generals made him afraid, this ethnic issue will always be a headache. Fortunately, it was in the south, and foreign intervention was even more troublesome. Not to mention later generations, it was the Song Dynasty. The Song Dynasty incited the Jurchens, and the Jurchens made the Khitan sad. The Khitan supported Dangxiang, and the Western Xia made the Song Dynasty a headache.

However, Song Jiu vaguely realized that Ding Pan was not as smooth as the ones in the south said. Maybe it was precisely because of the barbarians in the south that Zhao Kuangyin waved the Dadu River on the map with a jade axe. After crossing the Dadu River, I don’t want it. If the mountains are high and the land is far away, the court will not benefit. Maybe a large amount of materials will be transferred from the Central Plains to support the local area, and the army will be stationed to increase the burden on the court, which will make the people in the Central Plains more difficult.

But it seems that this is not the case. He didn't know how the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties ruled the south in history. He couldn't remember it. Even if he remembered, the system at that time might not necessarily apply to the Song Dynasty system.

When he returned home, he saw Zhang Lin waiting for him. Song Jiu greeted him and Zhang Lin said, "Jiulang, I'm here to make up for the 600-yuan coins."

"Zhang Dalang, why do you need this?"

"Father asked me to make up for it." A trace of grievance flashed in Zhang Lin's eyes as she spoke. For the sake of this money, he asked Zhang Qiong to beat him up. Then Zhang Qiong borrowed some money from others, and collected the six hundred steaks and handed over the son to Song Jiu.

"General Zhang is an iron-boned hero..." Song Jiu sighed after hearing this, and said, "Zhang Dalang, don't worry, I conveyed a sentence to your father. There is a folk saying that wealth is only three generations. Not only your family, but all the yamen, there are dozens of families who have invested in it now. But after thirty and forty years, I think at least ten families are no longer as rich as they are now. Maybe this dividend will become a trace of vitality for their children. This is a righteous and open way for their children, not an ugly thing."

Zhang Lin is not old and has a look of doubt in her eyes.

Song Jiu said again: "Zhang Dalang, if you don't talk about our dynasty, I will just talk about the heroes of the Han and Tang dynasties. Thirty years later, how many children of the founding heroes fell down. But you are here and just do something with me."

As he said that, he pulled Zhang Lin to Pan Mansion.

Song Jiu did not dare to enter Pan's house, for fear that Mrs. Pan Mei would cause trouble for him, so she asked Zhang Lin to go in. There were many internal conflicts among the yamen. For example, Fu Zhaoshou was obviously inconsistent with Zhang Lin, but Zhang Lin had no bad relationship with Pan Mei and several children.

The Pan Weigu Weide brothers were asked out by Zhang Lin. Song Jiu took them to a restaurant. After sitting down, he ordered a few dishes. Song Jiu said the matter was serious: "Pan Dalang, Pan Erlang, the court asked me to inspect Jingnan. Is there anything you want to bring to General Pan? I will take them to Jingnan."

"What are you inspecting Jingnan?" Wei Gu laughed.

"Erlang, don't laugh. The second king personally called me to Kaifeng Prefecture to talk about this. Last time I wrote a letter to your father and came up with several strategies. The court believed that some were useless and some were innovative, so I asked me to go to the south to take a look."

"Go really."

"How can this be kidding?"

"But you inspect..." The Pan brothers were happy with Zhang Lin. The four people in the south were more cruel than the other. Who was Song Jiu inspecting?

"There is no way. The court asked me to go. How dare I not go? I will come back after a walk. I will return to Beijing next spring and preside over the construction of bridges and docks."

"Okay, I'll send some luggage to your house tomorrow."

"Pan Dalang, I'm afraid that if I go to the south with my little arms and legs, you can write a quick letter for me and ask your father to take care of me?"

Pan Weide wanted to nod his head first, but suddenly realized, and then laughed loudly. After laughing, he said, "Okay, but give me at least three hundred breads."

"Pan Dalang, you can't blackmail. I'll leave immediately. The rivers must be leveled and there is also a bookstore. If you have time to toast bread, what if you come back next year?"

"no."

Several people bargained, and then they ate drunk and then dispersed.

There are many things. Song Jiu first took twenty-one disciples to Hezhou. Once he left, the Hezhou continued to be leveled. Where to dig, where to fill, and what height to reach, the students must be told to be the students. If they are not here, they will be allowed to preside over the course of themselves. Otherwise, when they return to Beijing next year, the peach blossom water will come up, and it will not be easy to handle. The project volume is very large. Not only will it be increased by two or three meters, but the sharp triangle at the top of the Hezhou must be cut off, artificial lakes, scenic ditches, and grooves at several docks. The grooves do not require manpower, and the court will provide manpower. However, the distance between the grooves must be explained clearly. Fearing that the students still don’t understand, they gave Li Zhu an overall picture, drew a schematic diagram, and then wrote textbooks. If they are not here, students can study by themselves according to these textbooks.

He was busy, and the court was busy. Wang Quanbin took an army of 60,000 to conquer Hou Shu. It sounded like there were not many. Compared with the battles of hundreds of thousands of people during the Three Kingdoms, destroying a country was still a country that occupied the advantage of terrain. The 60,000 soldiers were not too many, but too few. But this was almost half of the Song Dynasty's banished soldiers.

Sixty thousand soldiers and horses were in difficulty in logistics, and a large number of civilians were recruited.

Fortunately, Shaanxi Road was not affected much during the Five Dynasties, and it was also beneficial to the Weijing and Beiluo Rivers. The Guanzhong Plain has been rich since ancient times. It can be said that Shaanxi Road is the best road in the Song Dynasty now, better than Jingdong and Jingdong, and not Huainan either. Although it was recovering, it was too bad to fight before and could not recover for the time being.

The dredging of the Bian River is a small project that can be ignored. It can be dispatched to ten thousand people and thousands of small boats, and the problem can be solved in two or three months. At most, officials should pay attention to the safety of the people and have to rest during the Great Cold. But there is another project.

After searching for several months, I found a coal mine in Xuzhou.

However, whether it is iron ore or coal mine, mainly in Hebei and Shandong, Song Jiu was not very well-informed, but the yamen heard some news that after gunpowder was used, the amount of mining increased sharply, and there was no statistics now, but the officials in the salt and iron case were all ecstatic. I think there was a lot of increase.

This was a tragic era. If the entire Song Dynasty could increase the iron output by 40,000 tonnes, it was estimated that Zhao Kuangyin could lie on the iron ore and roll on it. But Song Jiu was silent in his heart. The output might not be so optimistic, otherwise another steel plant could be set up in Huazhou. The current iron ore output can only barely keep the iron furnace of the steel mill in Chenliu County from being unable to be turned off. Therefore, the imperial court issued an edict to start from Xuanzao County to dig a new small canal, running through Fengqiu, the mutiny Chenqiao, Wuzhang River, and the ancient Bian River, and reaching the steel supervision. This canal was considered for excavation of the terrain, so why did it be necessary to wrap Chenqiao in? Is Zhao Kuangyin guilty? But that dare to ask.

Not only will a new canal channel be opened, the water level of the Yellow River, Wuzhang River and Bian River are different, and it may cause the Yellow River water to flow back to the eastern suburbs of Tokyo, and a steep gate lock will also be set up. The project volume is not small, and Song Jiu vaguely feels that there are still some technical problems in the steel mill, but they will think it is very good at the court, otherwise it would be impossible to dig a new canal that is more than 100 miles long for it.

...

It became colder and heavy snow fell in the capital.

The snow was getting thicker and thicker, and the cold was so cold that Yuping was sewing a leather robe, making it for Song Jiu. The eldest sister sat by the brazier and roasted her hands, saying, "Xiaojiu, why are you going to the south?"

After hearing the news, she became anxious, and Yuping was also anxious. Where is the south? The barbarians in the mountains were fierce by nature, with poisons and malaria everywhere, and the weather was hot and hot. And they fought again and again. The court had not yet stabilized the place after several years. I heard that Li Chuyun ate human flesh again, and there was no good news.

"Sister, I just went to see it, just like I went to Hebei last time, I came back after walking around."

"Can Hebei and Jingnan compare?"

"Hebei cannot be compared with Jingnan. The north is the Khitan and the Northern Han. If General Li Jixun had not defeated the Northern Han and the Khitan army this spring and captured Liaozhou, how far is Cizhou from the Northern Han territory?"

The nature is different. This is not a map, but it is close to the map. However, the two states are separated by a Taihang Mountain, which is equivalent to a thousand mountains and thousands of mountains. However, the people of Hebei are indeed suffering. The Khitans go south from time to time and come to Hebei to draw grass valley. Compared with the people of Hebei on the border, even if they are in Jingnan, it is a paradise.

The old woman in the Zhang family suddenly said, "It would be a blessing that your Song Dynasty did not attack us. How dare we attack your Song Dynasty?"

"Mom Zhang, what are you saying! If you, the Northern Han, had colluded with foreigners to fight against the Central Plains, how could my father be injured and died in the end!" said the eldest sister angrily.

"Zhongyuan was originally from the Liu family."

This is a bad debt, but through some old woman's words and attitudes, Liu did a good job in the Northern Han Dynasty. He fought against the Ruoda Song Dynasty for many years and was exploited by the Khitan, but he did not fall. This is a miracle in itself. Song Jiu said seriously: "My mother Zhang, if you can stay, just stay calm. If you can't stay, you can take your grandson back to the Northern Han Dynasty, but some nonsense words cannot be said randomly, so as not to involve me."

What about Liu's family, even Chai's family has no share.
