Three Kingdoms: I help Liu Bei grow thousands of miles

Several people waited in the courtyard for a while, Gao Yuan walked in and clasped his fists and said: "Sir, the horse you want to use, and the Luma are outside the door."

Lan Tian nodded in relief. Gao Yuan had followed him for many years, and he hadn't said that he wanted to ride on the street, but the other party had already guessed it clearly. This is the so-called tacit understanding.

Lan Tian took the lead, followed by Gao Shun, Pang De, and Gao Yuan.

Walking out of the gate of the State Shepherd's Mansion, Lan Tian pointed to the white horse by the wall and said, "Ling Ming, what do you think of this white horse? Can it be called a thousand-mile horse?"

Pound's eyes brightened, "This horse is tall and mighty, with a strong body and a white coat that is as shiny as snow. It's really a good horse. It's great to use it for breeding."

"I'll give you this Lu, but I don't recommend you to ride it." Lan Tian urged.

"But why?" Pound looked blank.

Gao Yuan snorted coldly at the side: "This white horse used to be General Zuo's mount. Sir, he only rode it two or three times when he wanted to come here. If General Pang used his own footpower, wouldn't he be contemptuous..."

"Uh...so that's the case. It seems that the Lord is reluctant to ride. Pang loves a good horse like a wife and concubine. Don't worry." Pound clasped his fists to make a promise.

Lan Tian nodded slightly, and then instructed Gao Yuan: "Ask someone to send Lu to General Pang's residence. We are going to patrol the streets now."

"Wei." Gao Yuan cupped his fists.

Horseback riding is prohibited in the Central Government District. Lan Tian led the horses to the edge, and then inspected the four districts with Gao Shun, Pound and Gaoyuan. Area.

The cultural and educational area in the northeast is relatively quiet. At present, there are only Guangzhou Academy, Lingnan News under the Administration of Books and Newspapers, and three medical offices under the Administration of Medicine. Except that the main road has been leveled, the rest are barren weeds and trees of different heights.

The temples, Taoist temples, large gardens and other facilities mentioned in the planning map of the Cultural and Educational District were temporarily put on hold due to the heavy construction tasks of the barbarians, because Lantian decided to stabilize the material conditions first, and then slowly improve the spiritual level of Guangzhou City. s things.

In the military area in the northwest, there are nearly 4 garrisons and their families. It is currently the most populous area in the city. The uniform houses and several football fields are very eye-catching.

The artisan area in the southwest corner includes hundreds of government-run workshops such as textile workshops, papermaking workshops, and printing workshops. It involves military, people's livelihood, culture, education, and politics. It is also a concentrated expression of Jiaozhou's scientific and technological strength.

The trade area in the southeast is the most noisy and prosperous existence among the four outer areas. People, ox carts, and carts are rushing through the streets, and the smell of money is everywhere.

The bazaar built by the government is simple and extensive, and is temporarily leased to ordinary businessmen. The bazaar is organized and orderly according to the transaction categories, mainly rice, noodles, meat, beans, melons, fruits, vegetables, etc.

The well-built shops are divided into government-run and self-built. The government-run shops sell furniture, cloth, farm tools, pottery, etc. from government-run workshops. Private shops are commercial firms that buy land and build themselves. As well as exotic curios and products from the Central Plains.

Lan Tian made such an arrangement. He wanted people from all walks of life to have the opportunity to find a living in the trade zone. The lower taxes and good supporting facilities were just to attract businessmen from all over the place. He wanted to build Guangzhou City into an important commercial center in Qingzhou.

During the inspection of the trade area, Lan Tian found Shi Zhi and others arguing on a street corner.

"Gao Yuan, go and invite Mr. Shi over to talk." Lan Tian ordered.

"Wei." Gao Yuan dismounted and walked.

Chapter 434

The trade area is a mixed bag, and people often quarrel for their own interests. Scholars often go to various markets to resolve disputes and disputes for merchants and customers.

Although Shi Zhi is Shi Xie's concubine, and he is already over fifty years old, he seems to have found his true self in Guangzhou City. He fulfilled the tasks assigned to him by Lan Tian with due diligence, and he was not in a state of being a hostage at all.

After finishing the matter in front of him, Shi Zhi followed Gao Yuan to the corner of the street and saluted everyone.

"Your Majesty, General Gao, General Pang..."

"Is Mr. Shi so busy every day?" Lan Tian asked curiously.

Shi Zhi nodded, "Although he is busy, he has a fulfilling life. The business environment in Guangzhou City is very good. In addition to the fixed shops and commercial banks, the scale of temporary rental stalls is also constantly expanding, because there are Han Chinese, Yue people, people It's normal to have more conflicts and disputes."

"It seems that I have to ask Mr. Cheng Guo to prepare for the opening of the ethnic language class in Guangzhou Academy. Jiaozhou is a multi-ethnic area, and we need a group of people who understand ethnic languages." Lan Tian said thoughtfully.

"Mr. Cheng Guo and the others are all great talents in the study of classics. Baiyue's language classification is complex and varied. It is not easy to organize ethnic language classes." Gao Shun reminded with a frown.

"Three people must have my teacher. There are many people who do business in this trade area. They also learned from dealing with them. Although things are a bit difficult, it is actually easy to handle them carefully. Select some smart and studious people, and let them collect more and more. The pronunciation of the tribe is recorded in the form of transliteration, and later generations can get twice the result with half the effort as long as they follow the records in books." Lan Tian explained.

"Fu Jun's method is very good." Shi Zhi praised.

Lan Tian smiled and said: "There are always more solutions than difficulties. In fact, the simplest solution is to unify the language. People of all ethnic groups in various regions should maintain a unified language while maintaining their dialects and ethnic languages. After decades, everyone will be able to speak again. No language barrier."

"Isn't it difficult to unify the language?" Gao Shun frowned.

"The first emperors were just traveling in the same track, writing in the same language, and acting in the same way. This unified language is really..." Shi Zhi didn't quite believe it either.

Lan Tian nodded and said: "It's impossible now. If the world is peaceful and the Kyushus are unified in the future, then maybe we can unify the language, and there will be no distinction between people of different races..."

"That's the prosperous age, right? In my lifetime, I'm afraid..." Shi Zhi shook his head.

Gao Shun snorted softly: "With Mr.'s unparalleled talent, although we can't create a prosperous Kyushu immediately, Jiaozhou is still very promising."

Shi Zhi nodded in agreement: "General Gao's words are not bad, I have come here for a year to understand."

"I'm here today to inspect the districts. Why are you flattering me again? This wind can't last longer..." Lan Tian interrupted the flattery of the two first, and then asked Shi Zhi: "Except for the local businessmen in the South China Sea in the trade zone Man, are there merchants from other counties coming over these days?"

Shi Zhi lamented: "Of course there are. A lot of people from Cangwu and Yulin counties have come here, and merchants from Jiaozhi, Hepu and other places have also come across the sea. The famous Jiaozhou Yue merchants, the Usi Brothers, also recently bought in the trade zone. It’s been less than three months since the opening of the city of Guangzhou, and the current situation can be described as unbelievable..."

"Jiaozhou and Hepu should be inseparable from the recommendation of the scholar." Lan Tian was full of satisfaction.

Shizhi responded embarrassingly: "There are many kinds of workshops in Guangzhou City, and the finished products produced and flowed into the market are very practical. Even if I don't go to Cochin to promote it, sooner or later this place will become famous..."

Lan Tian affirmed: "The truth is so, but more and more people come here to do business, and there are more and more conflicts that follow. The burden on the gentleman will become heavier and heavier, but don't I was barely crushed, how could I explain to Wei Yangong (Shi Xie) at that time."

"I will do what I can, and if I am unable to do so, I will ask the Fujun for help in advance." Shi Yi said, cupping his hands.

Lan Tian looked at the security guard box in the distance and thought, then turned to Pound and said, "Lingming, I plan to hand over all the guard boxes in the city to you. Although the guard boxes are only responsible for security and smooth roads, I will send more people to deal with them in the future. For civil affairs, just like this trade area, it is necessary to increase manpower to coordinate disputes, otherwise, if you continue to be busy like this, your hair will soon turn gray."

"Your Majesty, do you mean to add another Lizheng to each post?" Pound asked curiously. (There is a Li in the countryside, and Li Zheng is also called Li Kui, who is in charge of the affairs of Yili and has both official and civilian identities)

Lan Tian nodded, "That's what it means. As for how many people to increase, it depends on the number of people in the surrounding area. I will let Jiang Gongyan choose the personnel. You can give priority to the post in the trade zone."

"Uh... Although the last general can manage the army, but for these civil matters..." Pound hesitated to speak, thinking that he was a good general, why did you let me care about such trivial matters?

Lan Tian smiled and explained: "It's not to let you concentrate on dealing with mundane affairs, it's just to take care of management. There are now forty sentry boxes in the whole city, and there will be more and more as the population grows. Ling Ming is now commanding the only cavalry in Jiaozhou. , the main task is to respond to emergencies in various places, and the sentry boxes on the street can just be your eyes."

"The general will obey." Pound clasped his fists.

Lantian’s approach is actually to decentralize the yamen, so that the people can deal with difficulties and disputes on the spot, without having to crowd all the way to the central government area to sue officials, and set up street guard boxes in the city of Guangzhou. Lantian borrowed from Xinjiang and Tibet’s policing The station mode can effectively improve urban management and better maintain public security and order.

When Pang Defu arrived in Jiaozhou, he took on the three duties of cultivating war horses, commanding cavalry, and managing posts, so you can imagine how short of people there is in Jiaozhou.

Usually when a new state shepherd or governor first arrives in a place, he or she will choose to cooperate with the local tyrants (such as Liu Biao, Tao Qian, Liu Yan, etc.), and the local tyrants will send people, money, and food to govern the place together, and everyone will live in peace Take what you need.

The State Shepherd of Lantian is different. He is basically in charge of the world in Jiaozhou. Officials at all levels have passed several evaluations.

Although it is hard work to start from scratch, once established, it will be very stable, and the already weak gentry in Jiaozhou can only behave with their tails between their tails and have equal opportunities with the people in Guizhou.

According to the steady progress of the Lantian planning, the counties and counties in Jiaozhou are like the peach saplings in the Lantian garden, and there are new changes every day.

In late March, the first issue of "Lingnan Daily" appeared on Lantian's desk, and the headline "Having a child should be like Sun Zhongmou, Hefei gives away [-] heads" appeared in the column of anecdotes.

Lan Tian read the newspaper with great interest, and suddenly the guard commanded Gao Yuan and knocked on the door.

Chapter 435 Long Jie Dudu

"Lingnan Daily" condensed the Battle of Hefei into a short story, and described Sun Quan's uselessness vividly in just a few dozen words. After reading it, Lantian knew that this newspaper was bound to become popular.

In an age when information and entertainment are so scarce, who wouldn't want to add some talking points after dinner?It may be difficult to teach people new knowledge, but who doesn't have a heart for gossip?Anecdotes and anecdotes have a somewhat golden effect on Lingnan Daily.

Just as Lan Tian put down the newspaper, Gao Yuan knocked on the door and brought in a person.

"My humble job has seen Mr. Lanfu." The visitors bowed when they saw Lantian Natou.

"Stand up and talk." Lan Tian leaned back slightly, thinking that this old acquaintance seemed to have changed a lot.

The man stood up straight respectfully, he was not tall, dark-skinned, wearing plain clothes, and his beard was carefully trimmed.

"You have changed a lot these years, what should I call you now?" Lan Tian asked meaningfully.

"Uh...you can do whatever you want..." The man bowed his head and replied.

"Sir, did you know each other before?" Gao Yuan scratched his head in a daze, only knowing that he was the county magistrate from Yulin.

Lan Tian chuckled: "Did you forget Yu Lin's Abu? When we first met, I ambushed my wife and I in Shi'an."

"Humble job...ashamed..." Abu lowered his head.

"It turned out to be you? Didn't you die of illness very early? Now not only has he come back to life, but his appearance has also changed, and his accent is almost the same as that of a Han Chinese..." Gao Yuan was very surprised.

"The high commander is polite." Abu bowed.

Lan Tian said solemnly: "He has changed his name to Tan Dingzhou now, don't mention the name Abu in the future, you go outside the hall and wait first, I have something to say to Tanxian Cheng."

"Wei." Gao Yuan clasped his fists and exited the apse.

"Sir..." Tan Dingzhou (Abu) bowed and bowed again.

When Abu feigned death and changed his name after finishing his work, Lan Tian kept his promise and asked Lai Gong to promote him as Dingzhou county magistrate. Over the years, he has worked hard to assist the county magistrate in governing his hometown Dingzhou, but there is always a sharp sword hanging over his head.

In fact, Abu has been paying attention to Lantian. He is worried that the other party will secretly assassinate him. The stronger Lantian is, the more afraid he is. Until he defeated Sun Quan in Changsha and finally became the governor of Jiaozhou, his heart has never been peaceful.

With the promotion of Abu, Dingzhou County was ahead of Yulin in the various policies that Lantian implemented after he became the governor of Jiaozhou. Go to Guangzhou City to listen to it.

"Your image has been changed very successfully. I think it's hard to recognize even Shi Xie, but his son Shi Zhi works here. You should be careful when you enter and leave Guangzhou City." Lan Tian nodded.

"I understand, I don't know why my husband called me here?" Tan Dingzhou (Abu) asked very carefully with a nervous face.

Lan Tian frowned: "Tan County Prime Minister has contributed to me, so don't worry about my favor being repaid."

"I don't dare to be humble..." Tan Dingzhou lowered his head.

"Longchuan and Jieyang counties in the eastern part of the South China Sea, where mountains and rivers intersect and the terrain is vast, because mainly Yue people gather, and now many government orders cannot be pushed in. You know that I mainly convince people with virtue, so I think of you, Yuan Taishou Still reluctant." Lan Tian chuckled.

"Sir, do you want me to govern one of Longchuan and Jieyang counties? Please give me some time to ensure that the task is completed." Tan Dingzhou patted his chest and said.

Lan Tian shook his head and replied: "The burden is still lighter that way. Now I appoint you as the governor of Longjie, and entrust the management of Longchuan and Jieyang counties to you."

"Thank you sir for your trust. Tan Dingzhou will definitely fulfill his mission."

"Longchuan and Jieyang counties are adjacent to Yangzhou. As the governor, you must not only manage the county affairs well, but also find ways to win over Shanyue from Yangzhou..."

Tan Dingzhou was surprised when he heard that, "Mr. means..."

"Sun Quan likes to backstab, so I had to prepare early. Let's sharpen the knife in advance and take it out when we need it." Lan Tian smiled coldly.

"I understand what you mean..." Tan Dingzhou swallowed his saliva, thinking that Mr. Lan was really planning ahead, and Sun Quan had been tricked so many times.

Tan Dingzhou (Abu) is very perceptive, and Lan Tian doesn't need to explain some things. He has been trembling before, but now he feels at ease after receiving the new task.

Lantian then called Jiang Wan and asked him to make a seal for Tan Dingzhou, and arranged for him to go to Longchuan and Jieyang as soon as possible.

At this time, the sun was shining in the courtyard, and Lan Tian changed into casual clothes and went out when he had nothing to do. He walked aimlessly on the street, and unknowingly came to the Guangzhou Academy in the cultural and educational district.

Lan Tian walked in with Gao Yuan with his hands behind his back, and saw that the huge academy was quiet. The two walked through the courtyard and walked through the courtyard and corridors after several twists and turns, and finally came to a study.

In the study, Liu Xi, Xue Zong, and Cheng Bing gathered together to annotate and discuss the dozen or so Confucian classics collected by the academy sentence by sentence.

Although the three of them have a mentor-student friendship, they have different opinions on a few points of view because of their different thinking angles. For the sake of rigorous scholarship, there are often disputes, which makes the commentary on the classics very slow.

The textbooks in Meng Xuetang are Thousand Characters and Analects, and Lantian doesn't know much about the classics that can be used as textbooks in ancient times, so he can only rely on the scope of the imperial examination, and ask the three of them to give priority to annotating the Four Books and Five Classics as college textbooks.

Now a year has passed, and they have only completed the annotations of "Mencius" and "The Doctrine of the Mean", and the progress seems to be very slow.

Lan Tian eavesdropped outside the window for a while, and then walked slowly to the door of the study. Someone noticed Lan Tian's arrival, Doctor Jijiu Liu Xi rushed out to greet him, Xue Zong, Cheng Bing and others all got up and saluted.

"Why do you have the time to come here?" Liu Xi greeted him with a smile.

"The spring is just right today, and I don't have any government affairs in hand, so I came to see Mr. here." Lan Tian replied with a smile.

Liu Xi shouted into the room: "Jing Wen (Xue Zong), hurry up and prepare drinks, melons and fruits..."

"Wei." Xue Zong answered with a bow.

Lan Tian turned around and stopped, "There's no need to prepare these, I'll just take a look and leave."

"Uh...it's all up to the government's arrangement..." Liu Xi nodded slightly. He is a literati who specializes in academic studies, and he is not as familiar with the worldly experience as the officials.

Lan Tian pointed to the front and walked side by side with Liu Xi. During the walk, Lan Tian sighed: "I heard you arguing outside the window just now. Mr. Cheng Guo and his disciples are very rigorous in their studies..."

"These books have to be handed down to educate people, so it's better to be cautious." Liu Xi nodded in agreement.

"It just took a long time. Next year, the Meng Schools in various counties in Cangwu will graduate. Is there still time for the academy to prepare the textbooks?" Lan Tian asked solemnly.

Liu Xi frowned and replied: "At that time, I can only teach and explain at the same time. It is extremely difficult to accurately express the meaning of the sages. Everyone is so picky, just because they are afraid of misleading the disciples..."

Lan Tian smiled leisurely: "Everyone has different thoughts, and it is indeed too difficult to force them to be consistent. Why don't you take everything in and learn from others?"

"What's the meaning of Fujun?" Liu Xi was puzzled.

Chapter 436 Promotion Poster

Lan Tian Zhengse said: "Everyone's experience and knowledge are different, so they have different understandings when reading the classics of sages and sages. Why not record them all for later reference by students? There is no need to argue and procrastinate like this.”

"Fu Jun's method is good, but will it make the latecomers more hesitant?" Liu Xi asked worriedly.
