Fang Xiancheng raised his head and looked at Bai Shan. It can be said that everyone was happy when Lu County Magistrate left, only Fang Xiancheng was a little depressed.
Seeing that the county magistrate Bai was not as talented as the county magistrate Lu, he was not sure. He chose to intervene in the salt field at this time. Did he want to seize power, or did he want to do something else
Bai Shan sighed in his heart, and felt that the promotion of Lu County Magistrate was not at the right time.
It turned out that when Laizhou and Qingzhou were fighting fiercely, Beihai County fought internally. No wonder the officials of Qingzhou and Laizhou were wiped out after the Eastern Expedition. Only the county magistrate not only kept himself, but was also promoted.
Even the gentry under the rule have nothing to do, because they are bothering to fight for the salt field, and have no time to manage the supply lines of grain, grass and medicinal materials passing by.
Bai Shan suppressed the complexities in his heart, and said seriously to Fang Xiancheng: "You just have to find out, I'll take care of anything, since the income of the existing salt farms is so low, it might be a good idea to open a salt farm in another place." Method."
He said: "After all, this salt production line has always existed from the previous dynasty to the present, maybe it's because the brine has been almost dug out."
Fang Xiancheng: ...
However, he could see Bai Shan's determination. Although his excuse was not very good, and he might be refuted by everyone as soon as he said it, Fang Xiancheng still accepted it.
Seeing that the county magistrate Fang was willing to check the accounts, Bai Shan turned around and left.
He took away County Captain Dong and Master Song.
Master Song didn't understand why the inspections in the countryside were so grand and mighty. As an upright official, shouldn't he be low-key and honest
As a result, Bai Shan not only brought the clerk of the yamen with him, but also brought him and the county captain Dong, and handed over the county yamen to Fang Xiancheng. As a county magistrate, you should not worry about your power being taken by the deputy Have you taken it
When Zhou Man saw Zhou Man bring a cart full of herbs, three guards and two maids, he became numb, and couldn't help but whispered to Dong Xianwei: "Didn't you say that Mr. Bai has been to the seaside before? I'm going again, I'm afraid the ulterior motives are not in the bar?"
County Captain Dong frowned and said, "This time I went to a different seaside. Last time I went to Longwan area, this time I went to Dajiawa."
Hearing that it was everyone, Master Song twitched his eyebrows, but thinking that Bai Shan had already passed Longwan, it would be normal to go to everyone, so he continued his topic, pointing his chin in the direction of Zhou Man He nodded, and said in a low voice: "Then what's the matter with bringing your wife? I think the lord is trying to please the beauty?"
Dong Xianwei: "...Old Song, one day you will be bad with this mouth. Can you arrange Master Bai and Master Zhou?"
"These words come out of my mouth and into your ears. If you don't say it and I don't say it, who will know?"
Dong Xianwei moved a little away from him, and said angrily: "Then don't listen to me,"
He said: "A partition has ears, don't you understand? We don't even have a wall here."
Master Song stopped talking.
Bai Shan helped Man Bao get on the horse, and then got on his own horse, and said to her: "Let's ride fast, we should be able to reach everyone around Shenshi in the afternoon."
Man Bao said: "So even if the fishermen on the seaside catch good-looking sea fish, it is not easy to send them to Qingzhou City from the seaside."
Although it takes less than two hours to go from Beihai County to Qingzhou City, it is riding a horse. If you walk, it will take a day, and from the sea to Beihai County, you have to walk a day and a night. I don’t know if fish can do it. live.
Bai Shan nodded and said: "That's right, so some of the larger restaurants and restaurants in Qingzhou City will send people to go to the beach every once in a while, if there are good sea fish, they will collect them, and there are some special errands in some large fishing villages along the coast. They will buy these sea fish at a low price, and then send them to Qingzhou City at a faster speed."
"I asked, there are times when you make a lot of money, but there are also times when you lose money. Because of the hot weather and environmental changes, some sea fish died when they were sent to Qingzhou City even if they were added to the bucket. It’s not worth selling.”
Man Bao sighed, "Sure enough, hard work is hard work, and business is risky."
She glanced back at the medicinal materials she pulled, and said in a low voice: "The officialdom is also dangerous. I have been thinking for the past two days. If I can't manage the local medical office well and find no way out of the medical office, then I will I don’t have the face to go back to the capital, even if I go back to the capital, I won’t be able to keep the official uniform I’m wearing.”
Bai Shan said with a smile: "With me, I won't fail."
He said again: "Don't be afraid even if you fail, I can become an official and earn money to support you."
Man Bao muttered in a low voice, "I can also be a doctor and take care of you..."
The two rushed to everyone's valley, and Man Bao was the first to go to the sea. Bai Shan waved his hands at Master Song and County Captain Dong and said, "Take everyone into the village to find a place to live. Dong County Wei knows, don't disturb the people, if there are rooms, we can make a few rooms for everyone to live in, if not, we will camp out."
Master Song's eyes widened, and he opened his mouth to speak, but was pulled back by County Captain Dong, who replied with a smile, "Don't worry, my lord, we all understand, we won't disturb the people."
Bai Shan took them away with confidence, and she took Zhou Man to the beach, and said to her excitedly, "I'll take you there, put the horse here, I don't know if the waves are too loud. Will you startle the horse..."
Master Song saw the two of them headed to the seaside holding hands with the guards, so he grabbed Dong Xianwei, "I also said that it's not the drunkard's intention to drink..."
Dong Xianwei turned around and left, "Let's go, let's settle down first."
Master Song muttered, "What's so good about the sea? If you want to see it, you can come by yourself. Why do you have to call us?"
He didn't want to go to the beach at all, he felt sticky, even when the wind was blowing, when he went back, he felt that his skin was sticky with salt water.
Dong Xianwei ignored him and kept walking towards the fishing village.
Zhou Man and Bai Shan had heard the sound of the sea a long time ago. It was a sound that Zhou Man had never heard before. There was the whining of the wind, the rushing of the water, and the crisp sound of birdsong...
Turning over the small slope, a piece of blue sea suddenly appeared in front of the eyes, the waves slapped on the shore, and rolled back the things on the beach with a rush, Man Bao stood on the small slope and stared wide-eyed. He closed his eyes and looked at it, and after a long while, he yelled "Wow—" and ran down towards the sea.
Bai Shan chased after her with a smile, and ran to the beach with her, he laughed loudly and asked, "How is it, isn't it shocking?"
Man Bao was speechless and nodded fiercely.
Not only Man Bao, but also Da Ji and the two guards saw the sea for the first time, and they caught up with Zhou Man and Bai Shan, not to mention Xi Cake and Jiu Yue.
The two screamed, stepped on the beach, and screamed after a while, "Sand got in the shoes."
