After dealing with the affairs of the Department of Culture and Education, Ouyang Shuo was finally free. He got up and left the lord's mansion, ready to go to the stable to see the pair of Nian beasts.
Along the way, he was thinking about how to arrange the pair of Nian beasts. Locking it in a stable is obviously not enough, it's too low, and it's completely unworthy of the image and status of the guardian beast of the territory.
Since becoming a Guardian Beast, Nian Beast has restrained its sharpness and is no longer so ferocious and terrifying. On the contrary, it has a trace of auspicious beast temperament, and the unicorn blood in its body has begun to be stimulated.
Seeing Ouyang Shuo, the male Nian beast gave a friendly cheep, which was regarded as a greeting. Hei Xuanfeng next door was not so comfortable, hiding in the corner fearfully. Seeing the master, he showed a very humane look of grievance, obviously frightened by the coercion of the Nian beast.
Ouyang Shuo touched the horns of the Nian Beast, and said with a smile, "Longyou in shallow water is not a long-term solution. Don't worry, I will move the place for you today, and you will not be wronged." Then he walked to Hei Xuanfeng's side, Touching its head, he comforted his mount well.
After returning from the stable, Ouyang Shuo approached Zhao Dewang from the construction department to discuss the matter of building a special habitat for the Nian beast. "Director Zhao, in your opinion, where is the best place to build the Nian Beast's habitat?"
Zhao Dewang was not in a hurry to give an answer, but asked: "According to my lord, what are the specific requirements for the habitat of the beast this year?"
"Well, let me think about it. First of all, it must have a wide view and a spacious place. It cannot be nested in a closed pen. It is best to raise it in the open air. Second, the place should be hidden, quiet and not easily disturbed. Finally, security measures must be in place. It can't be too far from the town." Ouyang Shuo thought for a while and said.
Zhao Dewang nodded and said with a smile: "According to the request of the adults, the subordinates have thought of a place, which should satisfy the adults."
"where?"
"Behind the lord's mansion, there is a small hill. There are only some low shrubs on the mountain. The view is wide and the place is hidden. It is next to the lord's mansion, and the safety is guaranteed." Zhao Dewang said confidently.
Ouyang Shuo nodded in satisfaction, and said, "That's right, then it's settled. After you come down, you arrange people to surround the whole hill as a habitat for the Nian Beast. It's best to let some small animals like hares live in the mountain." , for the Nian beast to eat."
"Understood, this subordinate will do it immediately." Of course, such a trivial matter would not trouble him.
In the afternoon, Zhao Dexian, Director of Agriculture, came to Ouyang Shuo's office to report on his work, and said, "My lord, the Spring Festival has passed, and the beginning of spring is just around the corner. As the saying goes, the plan for a year lies in spring. Does the Department of Agriculture need to continue to expand the scale of farmland reclamation to prepare for the Qingming Festival?" Sowing rice before the festival? With the current scale of 2,000 mu, it is not enough."
Ouyang Shuo shook his head and said, "Of course the farmland will continue to be cultivated, but it's not in Shanhai Town."
"The subordinates don't understand, please tell me clearly!"
"Shanhai Town is the base camp. In the future, it will focus on the development of handicrafts and industry and commerce, and agriculture will only play a supporting role. Therefore, at this stage, it is not appropriate to reclaim large areas of farmland in the core area of the territory and occupy urban land. Otherwise, with the development of urban construction in the future Expansion requires farmland to be reoccupied, so the gain outweighs the gain." Ouyang Shuo explained with a smile.
"The truth is true. But if there is not enough farmland, how can we ensure the food production in the territory? Purchasing from the market is not a long-term solution." Zhao Dexian still doesn't understand.
"This requires the subsidiary territory to play a role. After the territory is upgraded to a second-level town, another subsidiary village can be built. This second subsidiary village will be the agricultural center of the territory in the future. After the subsidiary village is established, then Large-scale reclamation of farmland is also within time." Ouyang Shuo said in an unhurried manner having already considered everything.
Only then did Zhao Dexian suddenly realize, and said respectfully: "Your Excellency is thoughtful, and my subordinates admire you."
"Just know what you have in mind. The reason why you didn't increase the population of farmers during this period, but arranged all of them to the city wall and moat construction site, is also the same consideration. After the city wall and moat are completed, these workers can all be transferred to farmers. to the new affiliated village."
Regarding the recent refugee arrangement, the Household Registration Department was instructed by Ouyang Shuo. On the surface, it seems unfair to the Department of Agriculture. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ouyang Shuo felt that it would be better to explain to this beloved general, so as not to cause any lumps in his heart.
When talking about the affiliated village, Ouyang Shuo simply changed the topic and said with a smile: "If, I mean if, you are arranged to build a second affiliated village in the territory in the future, would you be willing?"
Zhao Dexian's heart trembled, and his heartbeat slowed down by half a beat. It stands to reason that the director of agriculture and the village head of the affiliated village, one is in charge of the overall situation, and the other is in charge of the local government. It is hard to say which position is more important.
But for a former village head like Zhao Dexian, it is obviously more tempting to be able to take charge of one side again. Not to mention, the concept of an affiliated village is completely different from the previous Zhaojia Village. It can be continuously upgraded, and it is only a matter of time before it becomes a township. Its status and importance are completely different from Zhaojia Village.
He tried his best to suppress the excitement in his heart, and pretended to be calm and said: "This subordinate is subject to the arrangement of the adults."
It's okay, the mind is not too hot. Ouyang Shuo nodded and said, "Okay, this is just a preliminary intention, as long as you have an idea in mind. At the Department of Agriculture, you have to keep adding burdens to Deputy Director Sun Yannong. If you are really arranged, he will take over You have to come up."
Zhao Dexian nodded, listening to what the adults said, he already understood that the matter of arranging himself to build a second affiliated village is probably close to ten. It seems that during this period of time, Sun Yannong, a young man, must be taught well, so that he cannot lose the chain at a critical moment.
In the real world, the fourth day of the first lunar month.
After breakfast, Ouyang Shuo changed into a set of less casual clothes, and carefully groomed himself. His beard was cleanly shaved, his nails were neatly manicured, and he looked refreshed.
Bing'er pouted a small mouth, sitting in the living room sullenly. The little girl is very sad for her bad brother not taking her to the party this time. Xue'er stopped on the little master's shoulder, using her hair as a swing, floating around, not understanding the little master's mood at all.
Ouyang Shuo came out of the bathroom, saw Bing'er's small mouth still pouted, and shook his head wryly. Walked to her and sat down, hugged the little girl and sat on her lap, and coaxed: "Baby, brother is going to a class reunion this time, so it's not convenient to take you there. When we get there, we are all big friends. There are no children to play with you, how boring. My brother promises you that I will come back to accompany you as soon as possible, okay?"
The little girl nodded reluctantly, and said aggrievedly: "Lagougou, brother must come back early."
"Okay, Lagougou." Ouyang Shuo touched her little head, got up and went out.
Seeing Ouyang Shuo go out, Bing'er moved Xue'er from his shoulder to his palm, "Xue'er, now you are the only one with Bing'er."
Xue'er squinted her eyes and smiled, and said childishly, "Swing on the swing~~Swing on the swing~~"
When Ouyang Shuo arrived at Guifang Garden, he saw a banner with the words "Jiaozhou No. 1 Middle School 2180 Junior High School Reunion" hanging at the entrance of the hotel. It seemed that class leader Ruan Ping had prepared a lot this time.
Ouyang Shuo walked into the hotel. There was a special sign-in counter in the lobby. The hotel staff was responsible for the sign-in and prepared a souvenir for everyone.
When I opened it, it was a commemorative T-shirt and the latest Apple smart watch. I have to say that Ruan Ping is a real rich man. There are thirty-five students in the class, and the smart watch alone costs more than 200,000 credits.
Ouyang Shuo was also polite, and directly put the smart watch on his left hand, and put the T-shirt on the outside of his clothes. Then, under the guidance of the hotel staff, they walked towards the party hall.
When I walked into the hall, most of the students had already arrived. Ruan Ping stood at the door to welcome him. When he saw Ouyang Shuo, he immediately stepped forward to hold his hand with a smile, and said with a smile, "Ouyang Shuo? It's Ouyang Shuo! You boy, I haven't seen you for so many years, and you are still so handsome. They're all jealous."
Ouyang Shuo smiled slightly and said, "Compared to a local tyrant like you, you are nothing." He raised his left hand and said with a smile, "Thank you!"
Ruan Ping's eyes lit up, Ouyang Shuo's self-confidence and demeanor surprised him. To be honest, the reunion of classmates after graduation, especially the kind where everyone has already stepped into the society, the purpose is no longer simple and tender, but full of sophistication and copper smell.
Take this simple souvenir as an example. Those who have low self-esteem wish to hide the watch in their stomachs for fear of being seen. There was the jealous one, who accepted it unceremoniously, and at the same time said some jealous sarcasm behind his back.
So far, only Ouyang Shuo was able to take it on the spot confidently and calmly, and express his thanks in front of his face. Of course Ruan Ping could feel that Ouyang Shuo was neither flattering nor sarcasm, but calm. This shows that Ouyang Shuo has the confidence to accept the gift prepared by his old classmate calmly.
Ruan Ping sincerely smiled and led Ouyang Shuo into the hall, saying, "Come on, I'll take you to meet old classmates. I see, you don't know many of them." Got it."
Ouyang Shuo smiled slightly and followed Ruan Ping into the hall. He was not surprised by Ruan Ping's surprise. Having experienced the transformation of rebirth, coupled with nearly two months of experience as a lord, he is no longer what he used to be. The temperament of the whole person is less immature, and more indifferent and a bit of majesty as a superior.
