Chapter 236 Mrs. Arrives

Among the few things Tu San said, the greening thing was the least urgent one, and the rest was Tu Hao's job.

"The county seat of Anchang County is similar to the situation in Jing County. This section was supposed to be repaired." While talking, Tu Hao asked Tu San to spread out the engineering drawings he had originally planned.

Tu San put down his pen and looked at the extremely simple plan.In addition to the clear direction of the water in the main body, the remaining parts that need to be sorted out are almost a straight line.For example, the section from Anchang County to Raoshui River is the closest straight line.

I take it for granted that the actual construction will definitely not be able to dig like this, and it will be affected by the terrain or other factors.In terms of priority, the section of Anchang is not the highest priority.

The whole section of Rao River has passed countless towns.No matter how capable Tu Hao is, it is impossible to build the canal to the doorstep of every town.Those with special treatment will naturally go through strict selection, whether they are economically important towns or military important towns.If it wasn't for lack of money, he would have taken a fancy to several places and directly built a new city.

At present, the convenience of the people can only be the second consideration, and the first thing is to meet the military needs.

For counties like Anchang County, which have received more attention, if the construction goes well, the construction will not start until the first half of next year at the earliest.

"Then what does the county magistrate of Anchang say? Can they really send out all the people and things?" Anchang County is indeed an important economic town, rich and powerful.However, Tu San still had doubts.After all, it seems that there is only such a small distance, but in fact, the money needed is far beyond other people's imagination.What's more, not everyone can do overall planning like his uncle.

Tu Hao knew the news in more detail, so he naturally didn't hide too much from this nephew: "It is possible. Last year, the tax revenue of Anchang County accounted for half of the entire prefecture. The county ranks third. The first is Jing County, and the second is Xizhou; it is almost the same as Xizhou."

Jing County has a unique position, and in recent years, it has developed on the expressway.The gathering of a large number of craftsmen headed by the Jiangdan community and the participation of many scholars have made "Jiangdan Craftsmanship" a weather vane for the development of Dahan's technology.

Jing County is a stable place second only to the capital city, and many aristocratic families have followed the model of Jiangdan Community and developed other towns in Jing County, which have achieved remarkable results.

Xizhou is a well-established land, one of the most important grain and salt production areas of the Han Dynasty, and also the only naval station of the Han Dynasty, and it has a foreign trade port.Most of the crooked fruit merchants who came from the sea chose to land at Xizhou Port.The shipping industry in Xizhou itself is also very developed. In recent years, it has begun to travel farther and farther. It is no longer limited to the coastal areas of Dahan, and it means to gradually go to neighboring countries.

However, the news that Tu Hao got was that the place they were going to was either an empty wasteland and a deserted island, or a place where there were only "savages".It's too far away from Dahan, and I can't see the value of development for the time being, so I can only continue to explore.

It is no exaggeration to say that the annual tax revenue of these two places can even exceed that of some impoverished states and counties.

Anchang County can be compared with Xizhou, which shows how rich this place is.Even if this kind of wealth is far below Tu Hao's standard, they can still get the money for digging such a section of the canal.

If possible, Anchang County even wants to do it by itself.But no, they don't have enough technicians.

To Tu Hao, it was just the opposite. He was particularly short of front-line labor, but he could allocate some technicians, and he could even allocate some large machinery.

When Tu San heard this data, he couldn't help but widen his eyes. Thinking of the scene he saw in the market in Anchang County, he couldn't help but say: "No wonder the kebabs in the county sell so well." Meat kebabs are much cheaper than those in Jing County, but they are meat after all, so they are still much more expensive than food.That is to say, the common people have ideas and actions to improve their food when their stomachs are full.

As for Anchang County like this, if the waterway is opened, all kinds of production in the county will be able to be sold to more places at a faster speed and at a lower cost.It is also possible to purchase various goods that are scarce in Anchang from more places.

As soon as Tu Hao heard the grilled skewers, he immediately remembered that he had tasted a taste last time, and said to Tu San: "You will follow me to the county government office tomorrow. You can use this project to practice, and you can choose it yourself." When they talked about things, he went to eat barbecue, perfect!

Tu San has been studying with Tu Hao for almost two years. He has seen a lot of the world and dealt with a lot of things, but it is the first time that he is in charge of such a project independently.He has a stable nature, even if he is very excited, he looks even more murderous on the surface, and he looks like he can kill ten pigs at once.

"We must live up to my uncle's expectations." Tu San took the order, and went on to deal with other matters.His subordinates have gradually formed a small team of his own, otherwise things would never be finished.

Seeing his nephew going in and out of the office very busy, the mouse butcher who is an uncle has no intention of reaching out to help. After dealing with a few official duties, he moved his overused buttocks yesterday and stubbornly went to see the dishes at noon .

He has nothing to eat now, so he can only make up for it in other ways. Even if there is no way to make up for it, it's good to have a look.

The two chefs knew that he was particularly picky, and even in such a remote place, they kept honing their culinary skills.

In the process of water control, the most indispensable fresh food is fish.What Tu Hao ate the most was naturally fish.

At that time, not many people ate fish. One was that they did not know how to kill and cook fish, and the other was that many people did not know how to spit out fishbone.

The cooks in the big kitchen learned from the two master chefs, even as assistant cooks, after a few months, they have been able to prepare several fish dishes with confidence, and tidying up the fish can be done in the blink of an eye.

There are a few local village women who help in the kitchen. They don't work for a long time, and they don't need wages, just to learn how to cook fish with two hands.Most of their men do hard work on the construction site. After eating all kinds of fish in the cafeteria, they come home and tell me that they have learned how to cook it themselves, but the taste is not satisfactory.

The kitchen does not hide its secrets from such free labor, and when it is a little free, it will give a few tips on handling fish.The big kitchen cooks meals for so many people every day, no matter how much craftsmanship you have, you can't use it.The two chefs that Tu Hao brought with him, their skills are spread out for others to learn, and it is not something that can be learned in a day or two.

Tu Hao was watching from the side: "Fish head soup is delicious." Watching a woman put all kinds of fish roe, fish maw, fish soaking and so on in a big basin, he said, "Fish mixed with garlic and fried It's very fragrant once fried."

The women knew that he was the boss of the entire construction site, but Tu Hao's age was really a little younger, and he had a greedy and well-behaved appearance, so they really couldn't respect him.If they didn't know that he was a high-ranking official, they might still pat him on the head.

The chef heated up a pot of goat's milk, and took out a small plate of soft and sweet scones from the earthen oven: "Da Lang is hungry? Take some in the office to fill your stomach, and it's time for lunch in a while."

Tu Hao took the tray, still not giving up: "I want to eat fried fish roe."

The chef flatly refused: "No, you can't digest the fish roe after eating it."

Tu Hao couldn't eat fish roe, but others could still eat it.For example, the county magistrate of Anchang can eat it, and he can eat it very well.

The time he came last time was unlucky, it just happened to be staggered with Tu Hao, and he didn't expect to wait for Tu Hao to come to the door, so he hurried over again today.

Tu Hao watched helplessly as he ate three times as much food as he did. He also ate a large bowl of fried fish offal, a large bowl of fried fish roe, and finally a large bowl of fish soup.

The county magistrate of Anchang is only in his 20s, and he is not too old to start an official career. Seeing Tu Hao staring at him, he couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed, and rubbed his belly: "Your official is rude."

Tu Hao didn't care about how much he ate, but envied him: "It's a good thing to be able to eat, how can you say it's rude?" It would be great if he could eat so much.

The county magistrate of Anchang had heard many horror stories about the little butcher in the capital, but when he saw the real person today, he found that he was not scary at all, and was very easy-going.So then he relaxed and expressed the urgency of the people in Anchang County to dig the canal by himself.

Tu Hao was also very talkative, and arranged for a few technicians to go there. After sending them away, he suddenly realized: "I still have to go to the city to eat skewers tomorrow!" Now there are no more excuses, he can't go to the city , you can’t eat skewers, it’s a loss.

Tu San, who also couldn't eat more skewers, didn't look sideways, and said to him: "Uncle, you have to leave for Xinshanguan early tomorrow morning, you should go to rest early." Get some sleep and don't think too much.Even if my uncle can go to the city tomorrow, if someone follows him, he won't be allowed to eat skewers.

In terms of the entire water control project, the fastest progress is still a section of Xinshanguan.After all, there were so many people, half of the more than 1 barbarian captives stayed in Xinshan Pass.Equipment such as engineering shovels don't need Tu Hao to argue with other departments of the Ministry of Industry, and are directly distributed by the Ministry of War.

Uncle Ye's original intention of establishing the engineering battalion is not to mention him, but it is also a serious engineering battalion after all, and there are still some skills in various aspects.

The one-way road that could only accommodate ships in the past has now become a two-way road, and even dug a large lake.

The convenience of material transportation also makes Xinshanguan face a relatively new problem-how to store grain and grass reasonably.

In the past, the grain and grass obtained by the frontier army were not enough, and many of them had been dampened or even mildewed during transportation.Deliver food and grass with great fanfare, and it may take less than a month to finish eating.

The situation at the time was that it was good to be full, and half full was normal.Under this premise, there is no way to consider the taste of food, and there is no condition to think about it.

The situation is different now, Second Uncle Ye thinks it's time to be more particular.

Of course, when it comes to managing Rao water, Xinshanguan has already taken advantage of it.When the waterway was opened last year, which of the surrounding border gates would not be jealous?It was not good for him to just throw a memorial to the emperor, and "can only" choose to write a family letter to his brother-in-law and little nephew.

Anyway, his brother-in-law figured out how to improve the storage of granaries all over the world. Anyway, his little nephew would visit Xinshanguan from time to time.

There are people in the family, not Fang.

But this time Tu Hao didn't set off on time, but delayed boarding for half a day, and sent a leader to Uncle Ye.

Second Uncle Ye felt a little strange when he saw a boat in the fleet that was obviously going to be much more well-crafted on the pier, and then he saw his old wife stepping off the boat, dressed in the latest female style in the capital. Dressed up, especially heroic.

Second Uncle Ye was stunned: "Madam?"

Aunt Ye didn't say anything when she saw her husband whom she had only met for a long time: "It's useless, even a few mice can't handle it."
