Chapter 17

Yang Gao sat down and sighed: "Henan Prefecture has no money and no one, so it is absolutely impossible to ask them to repair the river. Master Li's move is called retreating as advance. He directly said that Henan Prefecture is unable to build the river. Since Gong County, all river channels were excavated and constructed, the Transportation Commission was commissioned. However, the above Gong County will not move."

Speaking of this, Yang Gao shook his head repeatedly: "Water is drawn from the sand mouth, and it is necessary to build a dam to store water. But if the river channel upstream is not renovated, who dares to block water there? The river surface is high, will the counties such as Yanshi and Yong'an have all been flooded? There cannot be any mistakes in the Yong'an imperial tomb. This is not mentioned in Luoyang City. I think they just don't want to build this river!"

Xu Ping sneered: "It's not that he won't allow the repairs. He wants the Transportation Commission to propose it himself and allocate money and grain to Henan Prefecture. It's better to summon people to them together! Money, grain, and staff are our preparations, and they are the directors. The repair of the river is the credit of Henan Prefecture. If an accident fails to repair it, it means that we don't give enough money and grain. Humph, it's ridiculous!"

Xu Ping slapped the stone table suddenly, which scared Yang Gao. His superiors have been promoted quickly in the past year, and his temper has also increased. In the past, Yang Gao rarely saw Xu Ping get angry in the Sansi.

But I didn't expect that when I first entered the Third Division last year, Xu Ping was like a young wife who had just entered the door, and was careful everywhere, so I was angry. Now that my wife has become a mother-in-law, she naturally cannot tolerate the people below who are careful to make trouble. It is precisely because she has no selfish intentions in doing things that Xu Ping is confident, and when she is confident, she naturally doesn't have to compromise.

"Ducao, what should I do now? Li Ruogu's memorial has already been put up, we have to give an answer."

Xu Ping waved his hand: "No, don't worry about them! You can prepare well. In a few days, the pacifier and Tiexin went to Luoyang City to discuss the matter. There must be no accidents. The more you are prepared, the more you understand the matter, the more you can get their approval. Our three departments agreed that Henan Prefecture can still make a fuss? By the way, the prefectures in Zhengzhou and Mengzhou came together a few days ago. Now let's change it, and the magistrates in Ruzhou, Tangzhou and Caizhou will also come together."

"Ducao means to draw personnel from these three states?"

"Not bad! Henan Prefecture wants to maintain Luoyang Palace and Yong'an Imperial Tomb. The people have heavy taxes and labor, and they really cannot draw people. This is the truth. If you want to sort out the river, you can only draw people from other states. This time, if you want to do it, we will do it a little bigger!"

Seeing Xu Ping's appearance, Yang Gao couldn't help but feel nervous: "Du Cao means to sort out all the rivers in Xijing City?"

"Yes, all the canals from the Sui and Tang Dynasties were sorted out. Also, not only the Luo River, but also the Yi River, they were also sorted out together. Clear the river, build weirs on both sides, and build docks in suitable places, and complete them together this winter!"

Yang Zuo opened his mouth, was stunned for a while before saying, "It would be a big deal if it's going to be a big deal."

Xu Ping leaned on the chair and said in a deep voice: "The bigger the better! Just tidying up the Luo River waterway, Henan Prefecture may be able to do it even if it is gritted, and we will be embarrassed at that time. Since the late Tang Dynasty, Luoyang's city has collapsed and the rivers have accumulated. Even to the point where there are large river beaches in the city. If it is just a small fight, it will be useless, and this time we will have to make a complete change."

Yang Qiao thought about it and then said to Xu Ping: "Ducao, although Luoyang City is Xijing, there are not many households now. If we really count it, except for the officials of each branch office and the officials who retired and lived in leisure, there are few farmers in the city who grow vegetables and flowers and mulberry plants, and hemp. In this way, is it necessary to organize them thoroughly?"

Xu Ping looked at Yang Gao and smiled and said, "Daozhi, you have been in Sansi for some time. What do you think of the newly built venue last year?"

"Ducao personally longs and makes a lot of profits. The court is now in charge, and there are many new places to do business. Do Ducao want to open these things in Luoyang City?"

Xu Ping nodded: "Yes, that's right. To be honest, you must say that there are countless powerful people in Kaifeng City, and there are also large camps of imperial guards everywhere, so the new field can only reach its current scale. Luoyang is different. Look at the two sides of the Luo River, there are countless empty spaces even within the city walls. Not to mention that there is the Luo River. The convenience of the Yi River is much better than the conditions in the capital."

"Du Cao said it was, but Henan Prefecture just lacked people."

Xu Ping couldn't help laughing when he heard this: "Haha, ha, what you said is just a shortage of people! So, we will do a few more major things this winter, not only to renovate Luoyang City, but also to recruit people! In addition to recruiting people from nearby states, we also have to offer prices and recruit people to do it. The more people come, the better."

When Yang Gao was in the third department, the new business was in full swing. He was also a little fascinated by Xu Ping's words. The main responsibility of the Transport Officer was money and grain. No matter how it came, if you had more money and grain in your hand, you would be promoted if you were given the exam. Xu Ping was able to do new business like in the capital, and the increase in income was more than anything else.

Unlike Xu Ping, Yang Gao was not a Jinshi. He was an official with his father's kindness and gave him a classmate. It was relatively not easy to advance in the officialdom, and he valued more practical political achievements. There is no way out. He can still rely on articles to promote a Jinshi. He has no way out, so he can only increase his career bit by bit by bit by bit by bit by piece.

After thinking about it, Yang Gui said, "It's really good to think about Ducao like this. However, you can rely on the three departments to run the venues in Beijing. What do we rely on in Henan Prefecture? There are only a few people in the Transportation Commission, and there is no one in the company to do it."

This is also a headache for Xu Ping. The road-level institutions are incomplete. The Transport Office said that civil affairs are inconsistent. In fact, there are only two or three big cats in the yamen, and they can’t manage them even if they want to. Using Changping Cangkeng, the court is in charge of the Sinong Temple, not the three departments that Xu Ping is familiar with.

Ren Ziyu, who is now sentenced to Sinong Temple, is from the mansion of the Eight Great King Zhao Yuanyan. He is over 70 years old this year and is basically just a nameless person. Using this person himself also shows that the current status of Sinong Temple is optional. However, when Ren Ziyu is born, if he is smart and capable, something may not happen.

The status of Sinong Temple is not good now because there is nothing to do in this yamen and is not valued inside and outside the court. Once the warehouse is often closed and the local affairs are organized, the status of Sinong Temple will inevitably rise with the flow. A bunch of industrial and commercial entities cannot be placed under the agricultural yamen, and there will be chaos in the future.

Xu Ping couldn't find a good solution, so he could only deal with it like this. When one day he returned to the court and took power, he would then transfer the Changping Site to the Sansi. Or set up another special yamen to manage these locally.

After all, it is because the three corps have heavy responsibilities in the court, but the corresponding local conditions are the transshipment commanders and the ability to judge. Their status is relatively not strong enough and they are a little out of touch. (To be continued.)
