Except for Xie Ling and the other two, all the people on the boat were common people who came with their families and planned to settle down in Sinan.
There were old people, children, teenagers, scholars, teachers, merchants...there were all kinds of people.
There was a scholar who wanted to apply for a teaching position in Sinan, so he opened a literacy class for children on the ship. Every morning, he taught the children to read and write on the deck.
Xie Ling is awakened every day by the sound of reading.
She quietly observed these people and found that they were basically kind people.
The aunt in the next room was particularly welcoming. She sent delicious food to Xie Ling and her friends every day. Sometimes it was buckwheat sesame cakes, sometimes it was臊子面, and sometimes it was sugar crispy cakes.
Later I found out that she had fallen in love with Xie Ling and wanted to recruit him to be her son-in-law.
Wei Xiuchu was the first one to disagree. He had been secretly trying to bring Xie Ling and Wei Linglong together, often letting them be alone together to cultivate their relationship.
The two children were still at a loss and did not understand Wei Xiuchu's actions.
Half a month later.
The much anticipated Sinan is finally here.
From a distance, one could see that the dock was crowded with people and noisy and bustling, even more so than Tonghua City.
Among the dense crowd, a row of people wearing red hats were particularly eye-catching.
A scholar opened his eyes wide, pointed at the row of people wearing red hats excitedly, and said loudly: "Those are civil servants from Sinan. Everyone go downstairs later and find them. They will make the arrangements."
Everyone else on the boat smiled and thanked him.
"Master Shen, thank you for your reminder! I wish you will be chosen as Sinan's master."
“Thank you for teaching the kids along the way!”
Master Shen smiled shyly, “Everyone is like this, we all want to develop well in Sinan.”
The big ship slowly approached the shore.
The people's mood became even more anxious. They all crowded outside the railing, staring at Sinan with wide eyes and excitement.
The pier looks bustling from a distance, but it is actually neat and tidy upon closer inspection. The ground is hard gray soil, and rows of fences divide different areas, with tourists walking on the paths.
There is a commercial area, a registration area, and a shed where free food is distributed…
On the far right, there are free carriages!
If people have too much luggage, they can take the bus into the city for free!
Wei Xiuchu listened to the people talking along the way and realized that Sinan was different from all the other places in the Seven Kingdoms.
The people are harmonious, the weather is good, and they are very open-minded.
He was somewhat curious and asked Xie Ling: "Who is the county magistrate of Sinan? How did you arrange it so well?"
Wei Linglong was also a little surprised and tilted her head: "This is much better than Wei Zhao. Isn't Beijiang the weakest country among the seven countries?"
Xie Ling chuckled: "You will know soon."
As soon as the three of them got off the boat, a groom wearing a bamboo hat came over and said enthusiastically, "Three of you, I see that this young man has difficulty walking, how about I take you into the city?"
Xie Ling was just thinking about how to get into the city. She nodded and said, "Then I'll trouble you, uncle."
The coachman smiled innocently, "Then remember to register my name with the civil servant in charge of carriages and horses later! Hehe."
"good."
Xie Ling replied readily.
The three of them quickly got on the carriage and headed for Sinan County.
There were also many horsemen nearby, pulling the newly arrived people into the city.
The road was all cement, smooth and straight, without any bumps at all.
Wei Linglong was very curious, "How was this road built? It's so smooth, just like the white marble road in the imperial palace."
Xie Ling replied, "This is called cement road."
Wei Xiuchu raised his eyes, "It's a good thing."
When we were about to reach Sinan County, bursts of exclamations suddenly came from the front.
Wei Linglong quickly lifted the car curtain to see what was going on.
The girl's almond-shaped eyes widened and sparkled with surprise. "Look outside the carriage!"
Xie Ling and Wei Xiuchu also looked outside.
All kinds of elegant houses were built on both sides of the flat and wide road, one next to the other, and each house had an independent courtyard.
For a moment, the windows of more than a dozen carriages were crowded with people.
The groom turned around and smiled, "This is built for you outsiders. The resettlement area was originally in the city, but there were too many people to be resettled, so the county magistrate built a group of them on the outskirts."
Speaking of this, the groom was very excited and proud. "I think we need to build a few more houses to accommodate them!"
Wei Xiuchu was a little stunned and couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.
He had learned national policy since he was a child, so he naturally knew how rare it was to ensure that the elderly had someone to rely on, the young were well taken care of, and everyone lived and worked in peace and contentment!
Although Wei Zhao was a powerful country, only two or three out of ten people had enough food to eat and warm clothes to wear.
This small Sinan not only allows every citizen to live and work in peace and contentment, but most importantly, it also encourages every citizen to work diligently and not slack off.
How was this done?
You must know that there will always be parasites under a benevolent government, and there will always be people who love laziness and hate work.
It is almost impossible to get everyone to work so actively without using coercion!
Wei Xiuchu's eyes were deep.
Who is this Sinan County Magistrate?
Wei Linglong didn't think so much.
He kept leaning against the window, staring at every house he passed by, his eyes lighting up again and again.
"This one is nice, there's a flower garden in front. Hey, that one is also nice, there's a lake next to it! I'm so confused! Aling, where are we going to live then?"
Xie Ling was actually quite surprised as well.
In just two months, I didn’t expect that Gu Wei and his team had developed Sinan so well!
As expected, every profession has its specialties.
When it comes to governing the people and developing policies, it is the group of civil officials under Gu Wei who are the best and have perfectly implemented her theories to the extreme.
Especially the one named Zhou Cisui, who was so smart and shrewd as a fox.
“Oh—”
The groom turned around and said, "We're here, guys. I still have to go to the dock to pick someone up. The rest is up to you guys!"
