There is a space man in the village [Rebirth]

Huo Chengyi and others took a wooden boat and traveled for nearly two months before arriving at the wharf in Haichang County.

In fact, Huo Chengyi calculated that the road from Tongniu County to Haichang County was not really that far.

The reason for walking for so long is entirely due to the speed of the wooden boat and the reason why many river courses are blocked by various obstacles.

If you want to change to modern times, even if you take a boat, it will not take such a long time. To put it bluntly, the traffic is still backward.

Haichang County is indeed a well-known poor place, even the county town is very dilapidated.

In the entire county, there are few well-repaired or newly-repaired houses. The streets are narrow and there are garbage everywhere.

Even the city gates of "Haichang County" are incomplete!

The entire Haichang County can be described as dirty, chaotic, and poor.

"No wonder His Majesty is willing to grant a title to our family..."

Uncle Huo and the others stared blankly at their family's fiefdom, not knowing what expressions to show.

Without knowing the real and specific situation of Haichang County, everyone was prepared to be poor, but only after seeing it did they realize that the reality is far more backbone than imagined.

How can this be poor? It's just a desolate place. No wonder His Majesty is so generous in conferring a county fief to the Huo family!

"It's okay, the place is a bit rotten, but it happened to be demolished directly to facilitate planning and construction..."

Huo Chengyi and Xiaobai have already seen what Haichang County is.

It doesn't matter if the town is broken, it is close to the sea, and the sea is rich in resources. Once it is developed and utilized, the prosperity here will never be worse than that of the capital.

What's more important is that this is his fief, and he is the emperor here, no one cares about him, he can flex his fists and kicks as he pleases, freely and freely.

However, although the place is poor, the people in Haichang County are not bad and very enthusiastic.

When the local officials received the news of his arrival, they specially organized the people to welcome him. The welcome atmosphere of a group of people beating gongs and drums was quite decent.

If it weren't for the fact that everyone was dressed too shabby, and everyone was black and thin like African refugees, the picture would still be quite beautiful.

"My lord, we have prepared a banquet for your lord in the best restaurant in the city. Please move your car. After the banquet, you will enter the noble mansion. The trivial matters have been arranged."

Several local county magistrates dressed in semi-old government buildings greeted them warmly and respectfully.

Naturally, there is a reason why these people are so enthusiastic. No one in Zhao country now knows that the owner of Huo Ji Commercial Bank is a master at making money.

Although the original Tongniu County was not poor, it was not a very rich place either. It was just a small town.

But the current scale and prosperity of Tongniu County are far from what can be described as a "county".

The background of the Huo family's self-made business is not secret, and many people privately raised their thumbs up and praised Huo Caishen!

Now that the God of Wealth has arrived in Haichang County, the entire county is still his own fiefdom. How can the Huo Dong family think of a way to pull them together?

These principles are not deep, but superficial. Not everyone with a brain problem will enthusiastically support them.

At the moment, several county magistrates in Haichang County can be regarded as good and honest officials, which is very convenient, and corrupt officials will not come to such poor corners.

The welcome banquet at the best restaurant at noon was actually not very good, but Huo Chengyi and his party were not too particular, and they had a hard time when they were young, so they didn't dislike it when they arrived.

Even the children in the family were very obedient under the influence of the adults. Although they didn't like the banquet food, they all obediently finished the food in the bowl.

Bao'er, the youngest, was a picky eater and refused to eat, so she was taught a lesson by her elder brother.

"Bao'er, recite what daddy taught me about hoeing!"

Huo Xiaoqiang put the chopsticks on the table, his expression was more serious than that of Huo Chengyi, a parent who is a father.

As an older brother, Xiaoqiang is both doting and strict to Bao'er, teaching his younger brother by precept and example everything that his father and teacher taught him. He is a full-fledged little adult.

Bao'er is not afraid of anything, just listens to his brother, and if his brother has a small face, he will die.

The little one was aggrieved, honest and obedient, and began to recite the hoe at noon, and the sweat dripped down to the soil... After the recitation, he obediently put a green vegetable that he didn't like in his mouth.

"Brother, I have worked so hard, I know, look, it's all gone..."

Jamie Da

Bao'er drove the leftover vegetables into Jiang Xiaopang's bowl next to him, and reported to his elder brother pitifully.

Jiang Xiaopang looked at Bao'er, then at the vegetables in the bowl, he was very spineless, trying to swallow the vegetables with a bitter face...

"Good looking son!"

Fatty Jiang applauded his fat boy beside him, laughing wickedly.

Huo Chengyi's eyes were blazing, and he was about to show the fat man who wanted to hit his son's attention, no, he is now a thin man with a hole in his face.

The people around looked at the children eating and laughing, and the atmosphere was very happy.

This picture reassured several accompanying officials:

The rumors are true, the newly appointed Sir is indeed doing practical things, and his family is also of the best character. The people of Haichang County will have a better life in the future...

After having a welcome banquet at noon, the group moved into the Earl's mansion in the afternoon.

Although the house of the Earl's Mansion looks like it has been around for a long time, it is still a noble mansion built with money and efforts from the imperial court, no matter in size or style, it still has a certain style.

It's just that no one has lived in it for many years, even if it has been cleaned in advance, the entire Earl's Mansion still looks desolate and old.

It's just like this for the first time here, everyone can only make do with it for a while, and remodel it in the future.

After two days of rest, Huo Chengyi started working on the third day.

Changed into simple attire with Xiaobai, left the child at home, and went out on the same horse to inspect their fief.

No matter how the people below report what Haichang County is like, they are not as specific and appropriate as they can see in person.

Since it is his fiefdom, Huo Chengyi intends to take care of it.

Jamie Da

And it is not just a general reorganization, but a large and special reorganization. It is more appropriate to use the word construction to describe it.

He wants to build Haichang County into a developed coastal city.

Therefore, before doing specific construction, he had to have a good understanding of the specific people's livelihood, terrain and customs in Haichang County before he could make plans.

It took half a month for Huo Chengyi and Xiaobai to understand and inspect the whole Haichang County together.

The entire Haichang County is said to have a boundary of nearly a thousand miles, but in fact there are not many places where there are people.

Except for the villages near the sea in the south, to the north of the county is a primeval forest similar to a tropical rainforest. The environment inside is harsh, and there are many beasts, poisonous insects, and people cannot enter at all.

In other words, the actual usable land area of ​​the entire Haichang County is only a few hundred miles in radius...

After shopping around, Huo Chengyi had no choice but to scold Huang Qi severely in his heart, this old fox is really smart, he is really very smart.

But no matter how smart the old fox is, he still missed this wonderful thing.

The available land area of ​​Haichang County is small, but there are many islands in the direction of the sea, and the distance between them is not far away.

He can completely develop and use those small islands, and turn the entire Haichang County into a water city like Venice!

Just thinking about Huo Chengyi in my mind makes me feel excited.

It's a pity that Xiaobai doesn't know what the Venice floating city he said looks like, but he is looking forward to hearing all kinds of beautiful descriptions.

"Brother Huo, let's build another amusement park here. Don't look at Xiaoqiang as a mature kid, but he is actually more playful than Bao'er..."

"Well, well, anyway, this is our territory, we can do whatever we want, our son will naturally want the best."

Huo Chengyi made a bold statement.

Parents all over the world are the same, they always want the best for their children, and he is no exception.

After inspecting the fiefdom, Huo Chengyi and Xiaobai started planning the city construction together.

Both of them are not professional construction talents, so they plan and arrange drawings and arrangements according to their own preferences and with reference to the model of a modern city.

Because of the planning and construction experience of Huangxi Village before, this time it is not too difficult.

The main problem is money, the construction investment of a city is huge.

Now is not the time to reveal the hole cards to the emperor. The money earned outside the Zhao country cannot be used openly, otherwise it will be easy to be discovered if the accounts do not match.

Therefore, in the construction of Haichang County, Huo Chengyi did not rectify all of them at once, but chose to develop the economy while planning and building.

In terms of construction, he has a professional construction department under his command to help.

The rest of the coolies are not a problem. Haichang County is his fief, and he is the local emperor here. He only needs to issue an announcement, and the people will come to serve.

What's more, he made it clear that the buildings he built will be for everyone to live in in the future, so why would anyone not want to build a house for themselves?

The common people responded excitedly and positively when they heard that they worked the most, and that the harder they worked, they would be able to live in a solid brick house at a cheaper and more favorable condition.

However, there are few people in Haichang County, and it is not enough to build this point.

Therefore, Huo Chengyi released a lot of strategic news to the outside world to attract people from outside to move to Haichang County. Only when there are many people can the city be built and developed quickly, otherwise no one will talk about it.

At the same time, Fatty Jiang Huo Dashan and others also helped, and started working on the economy.

What kind of economic development can Haichang County have?That is naturally seafood such as fish and shrimp in the sea.

It used to be worthless because it could not be shipped out, it was difficult to keep fresh, and there were various sales problems.

But these things are nothing to Huo Chengyi's place.

Fishermen suffered from fishing and lacked large boats, so he spent money to buy and build boats, and organized fishermen to form a regular fleet for fishing operations.

In order to prevent over-fishing of seafood from causing environmental problems around the county, Huo Chengyi even spent a huge sum of money and recruited many old fishermen to study the artificial cultivation of seafood.

As for transportation, if the land is not available, he will go by water. The caravan in his hand is not just for eating.

The problem of freshness preservation does not exist. The seafood that can be made into dry goods is made into dry goods, and the fresh and valuable seafood is made into frozen goods.

When they were doing skewers, they used saltpeter to make ice in the summer. Now they can also use this method to transport seafood in the hot summer.

Although the cost is higher, it doesn't matter, the wool comes from the sheep, and guests who want to eat good food have to be willing to pay.

Under Huo Chengyi's auspices and mobilization, Haichang County, which was originally lifeless, began to invest in construction and development in full swing...
