On the road from Shiyuan County to Nanhai County, the seat of Guangzhou Prefecture, the people were slowly repairing the road with dry food and tools.

"Hurry up, don't be lazy, my Yan family will pay for the road repair." A man in his twenties from the Yan family rode on a horse to urge the people to work hard.

"Where did they pay? We brought our own food and tools, where did you pay?"

Someone grumbled and continued to wave the tools in his hands weakly to dig the soil.

He used a bamboo milling machine made of bamboo, and he really couldn't afford a shovel.

Most of the others brought bamboo baskets, put stones and soil in them, and carried them to the road to be repaired and fell down.

A few came with iron hoes for farming, and others looked at them like fools.

If the tools are broken, expect others to repair them for you? Digging the ground is different from digging the road, and the road is harder.

The craftsmanship of iron tools is not good, the working surface is easy to break, and the connecting socket will be split open, but it doesn't matter if the long handle of the bamboo pole is broken.

There are many bamboos in the local area, and thin old bamboos are usually selected to make long handles.

Sometimes iron tools are broken, but bamboo poles are still intact.

According to the rules, the people have to do 20 days of duty a year, and the people in the county want to get through this period.

After 20 days, if you want to work again, you need to pay by the day.

Now it is tiring to work hard, and you eat more when you are tired. How can you live without income just eating?

The people of the Yan family know it well, and they want to use force, but they dare not. The people are not slaves. It is not allowed to have no strength to build roads in the hot weather?

Yan Jie and others are struggling. They are waiting for other clans to attack Zhang Jiuling.

The goods on the dock are too valuable. Every time the Tang Dynasty takes 20%, no, now it has been changed to 30%.

You don’t have to do anything. Others have worked hard to transport them here, and you can take them directly, and choose the best ones.

Yan Jie has written letters to other counties, thirteen counties in Guangzhou that have official books.

The Shiyuan County where they were located belonged to what was mentioned in the New Book of Tang: prefectures and counties that were famous but not recorded before, or were named by the barbarians themselves.

Some were not recorded, and some were named by the local mountain people themselves, such as Tanjiazhai. Although it is called a village, it has a population similar to that of a large county.

The total population of Shiyuan County is less than 1,500, and more than one-fifth of them are surnamed Yan.

This is the local big family, and the other less than four-fifths of the people cannot unite to fight against the Yan family.

Yan Jie thought that the county magistrates of other counties would not be able to help but take action, and see what Zhang Jiuling would do?

The county magistrate of Dongguan County, Guangzhou, received Yan Jie's letter. The county magistrate Huang Lun read it once and threw it aside.

"Want to use us as knives? Does Dongguan County have to find a way to make money? There are many people coming and going, and there is a lot of food and drink. The people live a good life, and I have political achievements."

Huang Lun despised Yan Jie, who only knew to be jealous of the court making money. Can you take the court's money?

Zhang Jiuling started to build the road from his home, passed Dayuling, and connected the road to the Yangtze River. How much money did the court and Lijiazhuangzi of Bashui pay?

Finally, another road was built from there to Guangzhou. The post station can be used and is being widened.

All the counties in Guangzhou are also using tax money to build roads. The road is open and there are benefits from sea trade.

What can you want less money at that time? You are anxious, and you promise to pay for the road after causing trouble.

Build it. Others have built it, but Shiyuan County has not built it. Let's see what you can do?

Huang Lun is not anxious, because there is a wharf in Dongguan County where he is.

The wharf needs porters, and the foreign merchants and merchants from other places need food and accommodation.

The locals can make rattan mats and bamboo mats, but the foreign merchants are blind and they don't want them.

These two are local tributes to His Majesty. The other Zhan Tangxiang is also a local tribute, used for medicine for treating diseases, and the foreign merchants are willing to exchange them.

Zhan Tangxiang is easy to obtain, but it needs to be carefully selected when making it, otherwise it will not be good.

Wouldn't the people make money in this way? The people have money, and they will pay the rent and taxes in full when they are collected.

When it comes to road construction, the people don't have to pay for food and tools, and they are paid, and the 20-day taxes are not counted, so the people build very quickly.

"How can the government make money?" Huang Lun thought about the people's better life, and when he was happy, he thought about where to make money.

Huang Lun is a local, and there are many people with the surname Huang. The governor Huang An is from the same big surname, and he is not out of the five mournings.

He passed the imperial examination and passed the Mingjing exam, and ranked second.

It was difficult to become a governor, but because he was a local surname in Guangzhou, he was arranged to Guangzhou.

In a few years, he went from a military officer to a governor, which was considered to be the successor of Song Jing.

Before, he said that he would erect a monument to Song Zaifu, but Song Zaifu did not agree.

When there were correspondences and New Year's dinners, Huang An had mentioned it.

It is said that Prime Minister Song told us that if anything is to be done in Lijiazhuangzi, Bashui, Chang'an, we must be very careful and not cause trouble.

Now you Yanjie wrote to me, I am afraid.

"Come on, go to the state capital." Huang Lun thought, took the letter, and found a boat to go out. It would take more than an hour to get there by water.

Otherwise, the land road is not so well built, and it would be a shock to death to take a car.

When Huang Lun arrived at the place, it was just in time for lunch. Nanhai County, as the seat of the state capital, now has three meals a day for the people.

Sometimes there is a boat in the middle of the night, and the people who are carrying goods at the dock can have a fourth meal.

The people have a special good impression of the Shibosi. The tax money was used to rebuild the dock, which is more convenient for docking and more work.

The merchants came and bargained with the barbarians. Foreign merchants like to eat sea fish, especially fresh sea fish.

Fishermen make money, and there are also local fruits. Some merchants will bring back some local specialties. There are not enough things from Yi merchants at present.

In this way, the local area is rich, and the handicrafts made are taken away by merchants, and the price is not low.

Zhang Shibo also taught how to raise poultry in large quantities, especially ducks and geese, and taught how to make them.

So when Huang Lun found Huang An, everyone was ready to eat roast goose.

The goose had been processed and placed in the clay kiln for roasting. Huang An was with Zhang Jiuling and others, and there was a sunshade.

A Mei sat there drinking ice water, drinking water with one hand and holding the handle of the Mo Dao with the other hand. It was made according to the shape of the Mo Dao, and the steel mouth was not very good.

Surrounding them were the most capable people from their own village and other villages brought by Qin Shui. They used horizontal swords, wore pants, and were barefoot and bare-chested.

There was no armor, let alone chain mail, and ordinary leather armor was not needed.

When fighting was needed, they would hold the sword and fight, usually jumping up and chopping, not caring about their own defense, and focusing on killing the opponent.

They fought so big, and they liked to fight in the mountains the most, because jumping down the slope in the mountains was more powerful.

There was a row of ovens, and there were two geese in each oven.

The geese could not be placed close together, otherwise the skin would stick together and the crispy texture would be gone.

Huang Lun took a look and walked over generously: "Meet Zhang Shiboshi, my brother, and Xiao Tan."

"How do you know me?" Tan Shui sat there without moving. This place was not Chang'an, so she had the confidence.

"Everyone knows. You bring three thousand people and goods here." Huang Lun smiled and nodded to Wei Yuefeng.

Wei Yuefeng was not worthy of his attention, but Wei Yuefeng helped Li Yi sell things, and he only sold a little at a time, and he was not in a hurry, but the price was high.

Wei Yuefeng stood up and returned the greeting: "Meet Huang Mingfu."

"I have a letter here." Huang Lun handed the letter to Huang An directly.
