Chapter 174 Come in person
Afterwards, Lin Wen went to the hospital to visit Yang Shaohu.
His injuries have almost recovered, but he is still unconscious.
His confidante stayed by his bedside.
Her complexion had improved a lot, and she no longer looked haggard. Looking at Yang Shaohu, who had gotten much better, her eyes were filled with tenderness.
When Lin Wen came, she immediately got down from the bed and knelt on the ground, but Lin Wen pulled her up.
"There's no such action in my territory."
Lin Wen told her, and there was confusion and gratitude in her eyes.
Lin Wen chatted with her briefly and learned that the woman's name was Lian Mei. She was sold to the Council as a servant by her father at an early age. There, she was subjected to harsh training and inhuman abuse, and was instilled with a lot of concepts about nobility and inferiority.
Later, he was insulted and tortured by many reviewers at the banquet, and was saved by Yang Shaohu.
After recovering from her injuries, she hid in Yang Shaohu's house outside the city and lived a peaceful and dreamy life for nearly two months. Later, Yang Shaohu was arrested and she was forced to escape and seek rescue.
Yang Shaohu was isolated in the council and had no real friends, so he often confided in her and told her a lot of internal affairs of the council.
And she also got to know Lin Wen.
Because of her unlimited trust in Yang Shaohu, she also developed trust in County Chief Lin, whom Yang Shaohu described as extremely great.
When Yang Shaohu was arrested, the first person she thought of was Lin Wen.
She heard from Shaohu the day before the incident that the council would frame and attack Lin Wen at the meeting.
That means that as long as she can enter the imperial headquarters, she will have a great chance of finding County Governor Lin.
She successfully sneaked into the first ring line of Shenjing, but could not get into the zero ring line no matter what she did.
That night was the closest she had ever come to success, but her actions angered the three guards, and she was dragged out of the utility truck and beaten for a long time.
She was almost in despair, but she saw hope at the bottom of the abyss.
Lin Wen saved her.
Although she had never seen a photo of Lin Wen, it was extremely rare to see such a young senior official in the empire.
At that moment, she instinctively determined that this person was Lin Wen.
Then, miraculously, like a dream, everything goes so smoothly that it doesn't seem real.
Therefore, in Lian Mei's eyes, Lin Wen is the sky for her and Shao Hu, and the highest-ranking "master" taught by the Council.
So kneeling was her instinctive reaction.
Lin Wen knew that it would be difficult to completely change her mindset in such a short period of time, so he changed his approach and said:
"Every place has its own rules. The Council has its own rules, and Changshan County has its own rules. When you come to Changshan County, you must abide by the rules of Changshan County."
Lian Mei nodded in understanding.
"The core rule of Changshan County is to follow science. As long as you act strictly according to science, you and Shaohu can live happily forever in Changshan County. Do you understand?"
Lian Mei nodded quickly. "Master... County Magistrate Lin, I understand. I will set an example and strictly enforce the rules. I will never dare to violate them in the slightest."
"Very good." Lin Wen nodded with satisfaction: "Listen carefully, Changshan County's science is."
"Courage, truth-seeking, realism, and pragmatism..."
Even after Lin Wen walked out of the ward, he could still hear Lian Mei chanting the mantra.
Afterwards, Lin Wen went to visit Zhao Minggong.
Old Zhao looked very good. He was very happy to see Lin Wen coming, his face flushed with joy, but he was already lying in bed unable to move.
His hospital bed was converted into an extra-large office, which was filled with various documents as high as a mountain, the largest of which was the future development plan of Changshan County.
In Zhao Minggong's vision, Changshan County would become the transportation hub of the empire in the future:
A supreme imperial highway, serving as the empire's main artery, runs through Changshan County, connecting the six states in the east and west.
Another imperial highway runs across the north and south, piercing through the Yunxiao Mountains and Taixu Mountains, crossing the Tianjiang River, and connecting the five states in the north and south.
Once the transportation is opened up, Changshan County’s blood circulation will be activated, and there will be a way for overall development.
Of course, this is just a dream within a dream.
Zhao Minggong named the latter plan "Tiangong Plan", which was expected to be realized in 30 years.
The previous plan was named "Heart Bypass Plan", which means to build a bridge on the blocked aorta in Changshan County, and it is expected to be initially opened in three years.
At present, the goal is to restore the vitality of Changshan County's heart and allow the four areas of Changshan County's high-quality myocardial cells: Huaizhen, Shangxi Town, Qingze Township, and the new homes for disaster victims that are about to be built to develop rapidly.
And build high-grade and higher-level roads in these four areas to connect them and connect them with each other.
The geology of Changshan County is very poor. In addition to the undulating mountain basins on the highlands, there are also geological hazards such as caves, underground lakes, and sandy soil layers. The cost of road construction is very high.
Therefore, the construction of roads connecting these four areas is very difficult and costly.
This is also the reason why Changshan County knew that building roads was the key to development, but never did it.
Now, with the right time, place and people, Zhao Minggong immediately promoted the trunk road project and gave it priority above all other projects.
Its construction workers were also carefully selected. Zhao Minggong specially hired roadbed engineering experts at high salaries to guide the work, and intended to cultivate his own roadbed experts and engineering team.
After all, this is just an appetizer. The Imperial Highway that runs through the east and west is the real challenge.
Lin Wen chatted with Zhao Minggong for two hours. Mr. Zhao was very happy. Lin Wen told him a lot of good news:
Changshan County has opened up a path for aid, ensuring a steady flow of funds, personnel, and supplies for a long time to come, eliminating any concerns about shortages. A future government official has also been found, and upon recovery, he will immediately assist Lord Zhao Ming in his work.
Afterwards, Lin Wen said goodbye and left. Li Xiaoli came out specially to give Lin Wen a crystal pear with a very delicate portrait of Lin Wen carved on it.
She looks much more mature now. She treats people with grace and elegance, and her gestures are natural and appropriate. She always has a sunny smile on her face, which makes people feel good about her.
"Thank you, County Magistrate Lin."
Lin Wen scratched the back of his head, and with his heart opened wide, he said, "What are you thanking me for? Come and kiss me."
Pop.
Lin Wen went back with the slap mark on his face.
After Li Xiaoli returned to her bed, Zhao Minggong said, "Xiaoli, you really should thank County Magistrate Lin."
Li Xiaoli pouted: "No, he's taking advantage of me."
Zhao Minggong laughed and said, "Girl, that slap was so loud, I'm afraid more than half of the people here saw it. What do you think they would think when they saw this scene?"
Li Xiaoli thought about it carefully and said, "I have two ideas. One is that County Chief Lin was plotting something bad and I taught him a lesson; the other is that we have an intimate relationship and were just playing around."
Zhao Minggong smiled and patted her head. "No matter which one, do you think anyone will bother you again in the future?"
Li Xiaoli soon realized that although she had the power to punish people, she was kind-hearted and soft-handed, and was always unwilling to use heavy-handed tactics, so she had no deterrent power.
So there are always flies and little disturbances.
But County Governor Lin is different.
He held a sharp sword in his hand and killed people all over Changshan County. Who dared to say that he was not afraid of him?
And she actually had a fight with County Chief Lin and was not retaliated against.
Who would dare to encounter this bad luck again?
Li Xiaoli seemed to understand something.
Zhao Minggong gently stroked her hair and smiled, "Girl, Commander Lin is a hero and won't care about anything, but you should be open and honest. When you have time, prepare a gift and give it to Commander Lin."
"Um!"
Li Xiaoli's smile was like spring flowers blooming.
