224 Mr. Fu Yin, making great progress
Chu Tianxiu saw that the officials of Jinling Mansion stood in the audience with a gentle expression, with a faint smile, and asked again: "I am still not very familiar with the government affairs of the government office. Everyone, what advice can I offer to teach me?"
[Youyou Reading www.uutxt.co] “No, no!”
"The prefect is so modest. If you manage Danyang County, it is the best county in the country! It is naturally no problem to manage Jinling Prefecture. How can I compare with you when I am a junior official?"
"We wait for the prefect to be ordered by the prefect!"
The officials shook their heads repeatedly and became honest.
They had already understood that Xiao Hunhou asked them, that was just a polite person, but they didn't expect to really make up their minds.
If they jump out foolishly and "guid" Xiao Hunhou, wouldn't they be asking for trouble!
Seeing that they were all very sensible, Chu Tianxiu nodded with satisfaction and said, "Okay, then I will be reluctant to do so. Let's start governing.
Everything else in Jinling City is good, but the various infrastructures are too poor.
This rainy season will lead to sewage flowing, causing people to suffer from diseases and pose great hidden dangers. We must vigorously rectify it!
Moreover, the roads in the city are still acceptable, but once you leave the city, it becomes muddy and difficult to walk. We must vigorously rectify it!
The city defense has not been repaired for more than ten years and cannot keep up with the situation. We must vigorously rectify it!
This official decided to carry out a large-scale infrastructure construction and comprehensively transform three major parts: sanitation, roads and urban defense.
Each alley must be dug a sewage ditch that is half a meter deep, and each big street must be one meter deep.
This bluestone road is not only paved in the city, but also needs to be built to Danyang County, Dajiang Wharf, and Wanling City.
The city defense is to repair the fortress, and one fortress is built every two feet at the head of Jinling City.”
Zheng Bai, Wang Mu, and the officials of the Sixth Division were all stunned when they heard the prefect say that they would launch a large number of civil engineering projects and carry out urban infrastructure.
After sixty or seventy years of construction, Jinling Prefecture has long been the most perfect city of the Great Chu Dynasty.
The walls of Jinling are tall and strong, and are the world's largest city.
The main roads in the city are paved with blue bricks, and wide roads run through the city.
Not enough?
Is infrastructure not good enough?
Why dig a large drainage and sewage drainage ditches?
Build the bluestone road to other county towns?
A large number of forts need to be built?
Battery, what's that thing?
They had only heard of the Arrow Tower, but never heard of the Fort.
Of course, these are not considered problems. It is not surprising that Xiao Hunhou came up with any strange ideas.
The biggest problem is.
It costs a lot of money to make big money!
All the officials in the Jinling Yamen vomited blood.
Although the Jinling Yamen collected some taxes and was considered the richest yamen in the Great Chu. However, after a large amount of civil engineering, the money in the warehouse would be spent soon. What should I do?!
However, the prefect seems to care about this issue.
"Mr....How large is the plan to do?"
"For every case, invest 100,000 taels of silver first! If not enough, continue to add more."
“….”
The officials looked at each other and did not dare to speak out to stop them.
Let’s do it with your teeth. These are the three things that the new official of the prefect is taking office. Anyway, the prefect is the prefect who takes responsibility.
...
With the order of the Jinling Prefecture Prime Minister Chu Tianxiu.
Young Yin Zheng Bai and Wang Mu immediately took the officials of the Sixth Division and the minor officials to start recruiting a large number of civilians in Jinling City.
Jinling City has a population of one million, and many people at the bottom have a meager income and don’t make much money. Of course, they are extremely enthusiastic when they can get money when they work.
Tens of thousands of civilians and craftsmen were quickly collected.
Start digging ditches, building roads, and building walls in the city.
The Jinling City was suddenly dug into a mess, and dust was flying everywhere.
For this huge project, tens of thousands of civilians need a large amount of iron tools, and of course, they have to purchase tens of thousands of shovels, hammers, etc. from Danyang County.
There are also burning bricks, paving roads, building forts, purchasing materials, and spending money like flowing water.
...
In Jinling City, the powerful, Confucian scholars and the people in the city were all shocked when they saw this scene.
The day before yesterday they were still betting when will the "demolish" Jinling City be after Xiaohunhou takes office?
Unexpectedly, after only two days of taking office, I started to make a special repair in Jinling City.
The entire Jinling City was dug in a bumpy manner.
...
Such a big noise naturally alarmed the Prime Minister's Mansion.
The prime minister Kong Hanyou knew the temper of Xiaohunhou, and did not give him much face to the prime minister, and he would not interfere directly in the governance of Jinling Mansion.
He recruited Jinling Young Yin Zhengbai and asked Xiao Hunhou's "movements".
Zheng Bai quickly reported to Xiaohunhou's latest policy, preparing to comprehensively transform Jinling City, and reported to the Prime Minister.
"Maintaining construction?! How much money does the Jinling Prefecture Office have? Enough for him to do this?"
When Kong Hanyou heard this, he frowned.
"Reported to the warehouse of the Jinling Prefecture, there are about 500,000 taels of silver left. It was already abundant and enough to cope with all expenses.
But the prefectural chief has invested a lot of money in building a large scale, and he can spend more than 300,000 yuan a month. It is estimated that in less than two months, he will run out of money!"
Zheng Bai hesitated for a moment and reported.
Kong Hanyou thought for a long time.
Thinking about the purpose of Xiaohunhou's move.
When Xiaohunhou took office, he must be in a hurry to achieve some political achievements and show his abilities in front of the emperor.
There should be no other intentions implied.
However, there are too many royal family families in Jinling City, and they are mixed. If you take action in other aspects, you are prone to opposition and find it difficult to achieve political achievements.
Only then did Xiaohunhou start from the most conspicuous and easiest infrastructure, with little resistance and a big move to win the emperor's praise.
Kong Hanyou planned to decide to wait and see.
Jinling Mansion is the young marquis in charge of the government and has the right to do these things. It is not easy for him, the prime minister, to interfere for no reason.
Let Xiaohunhou transform Jinling City.
When Xiao Kuyin from the Jinling Prefecture Office is gone... Haha, Xiao Hunhou has nothing to do, how can he do it?
Xiao Hunhou is still too young, and I don’t know the importance of having money in my hands!
When the Jinling Mansion had no money, at that time, if Xiaohunhou wanted to do anything, he had to apply to the court and the Prime Minister's Mansion to allocate money.
He just needs to have a light card.
Xiaohunhou could only bow down and ask his grandfather to sue his grandmother. How could he fight against him in the future?
The Jinling Prefecture government office is full of family factions and Confucian officials, and none of them are Xiaohunhou.
There is the Prime Minister's Mansion above and the small officials below. I don't believe that Xiao Hunhou could turn over in Jinling Mansion.
Let Xiaohunhou's career end at Jinling Mansion!
Kong Hanyou stood with his hands behind his back, smiling confidently, "You go back, the little Hunhou in Jinling Mansion has made a big move and report his true identity immediately."
"Yes, Prime Minister!"
Zheng Bai said respectfully and left.
Chapter completed!
