Chapter 706: Jiandun's Audience (Subscription Requested)
After the hunt was over, everyone quickly dispersed and went back to complete the tasks assigned by the leader.
Yunzhi ran back without stopping to recruit people everywhere. Shuda, Yingrui and Dali also went to Xingang County together to receive the 200 artillery pieces approved by the leader, and also familiarized themselves with the operation and power of this new weapon at the test gun range.
Dashu went back to inform Jiandun of the news that he was going to Hanyang City to meet the leader. After Jiandun went home and made some preparations, he set off for Hanyang County with full of doubts.
As the newly promoted county governor last year, Jing Yan did not get the promotion this time, but he was content. The most powerful official position in the Han tribe now is the county governor. He can be said to have reached the peak of his life to become one of them. Besides, he really didn't know what it would be like to be promoted from county governor.
Although he was not promoted this time, the leader still gave him a lot of real power and ordered him to set up two more counties in Zeliang near Dongxin County. In this way, although he was still the county governor, he actually managed three administrative cities, which was a big improvement.
Jing Yan didn't care about it. The task of setting up two new counties might be difficult for others, but it was not a problem for him. Dongxin County had vast tracts of land on the east, south and north sides, where many primitive tribes that had not yet been discovered lived. With the current strength of Dongxin County, it was easy to collect the population of the two counties. This was also a benefit of the border. At the same
time, after Luo Chong returned to Hanyang City, he also issued a series of job transfer orders. Several county-level officials in the Han tribe were so excited that they went home and called their wives and children to celebrate.
The county magistrate of Sitong County was promoted to the governor of Weishan County. This was a lucrative job. Although Weishan County was established not long ago, it has always had the most abundant supplies and population. It is guarding the swamp lake, has the largest inland dock of the Han tribe, and has the Morning Star Lighthouse, which is known as the tallest building in the Han tribe. It is also the only place where the Han tribe produces white wine. It also produces a large amount of brown sugar. With such abundant output, as long as he does not mess around, Weishan County will be prosperous.
The same is true for the county magistrates of the three counties in Hanyang County. They were also very excited when they were told that they would be assigned to various places. The petty officials below were also happy because they could also be promoted to some positions accordingly after the county chief left. Those who did a good job would have the opportunity to be promoted to the chief official such as the county magistrate.
Only the county magistrate of Fuma Pass did not make any movement. The county magistrate before Fuma Pass was Ying Rui. Later, when Luo Chong was going to establish the Grassland Kaiyuan County, he was transferred to be the governor. The clerks below had just been promoted to the position of county magistrate, and their term of office was less than a year. Of course, he would not be promoted again.
As for Ling Feng, who also has the hope of being promoted to the position of county governor, he is still busy training soldiers in Kaiyuan County. Although Ling Feng is not a member of the regular army of the Han tribe, he also leads a temporary army composed of herdsmen, and can do both herding and fighting.
Winter is the season for resting grazing, and it is also a good time for herdsmen to train. Moreover, Luo Chong had issued a warning before winter that Kaiyuan County was attacked. There are so many people in Kaiyuan County, and it is a border county with a large number of troops. Of course, they will not take it lightly. At this time, they are all practicing tactics and combat skills such as archery and horsemanship.
On the other side of Hanyang City, Jiandun finally came to the office on the top floor of the government building.
Luo Chong was sitting behind his desk and looking through the files of Jiandun that Dashu had sent in advance. This guy has joined the Han tribe for several years, and he has not been idle in these years.
At the beginning of the establishment of Liuyang County, Jiandun had organized the tribesmen to participate in the construction. Later, during the expansion of Liuyang County, Jiandun also made a lot of efforts, so it should not be a problem for him to take charge of the overall situation in the construction of the city.
After the expansion work was completed, Jiandun also took charge of the animal husbandry work in Liuyang County. It was not until the Han tribe recruited a lot of grassland herders that he, who knew antelope breeding best, was replaced.
After that, Jiandun also participated in learning for a period of time. Reading and writing Chinese characters were no longer a problem. Later, he also managed the carriage and horse transportation in Liuyang County.
Overall, this guy has a rich work resume. The only shortcoming is that he is not very concerned about agricultural planting and has not made any achievements. This is something that needs to be noted. If Jiandun must be the county governor, he must be assigned an adjutant to manage agricultural water conservancy.
Luo Chong quickly thought of a person, that is, Jiang Xuan, the original patriarch of the Youjiang clan.
The Youjiang clan was originally a farming tribe that planted corn. The love for land and farming is almost deep in their bones. Later, after joining the Han tribe and learning new planting techniques and better grains, they became more proficient in farming techniques. Because they attach enough importance to farming, they also study very seriously.
Some of the older people in the Jiang family are fully qualified to be the chief agricultural officer of the local area. However, since those young people joined the Han tribe, they have been dazzled by the colorful world and all kinds of good things in the Han tribe and have forgotten their duty of farming, because here, there are too many professions for them to choose.
After thinking about these things, Luo Chong looked at Jiandun who was a little nervous and asked.
"Do you know why you are called here this time?"
"I don't know."
Jiandun shook his head. He thought about many things along the way and reflected on whether he had made any mistakes during this period. However, after thinking carefully, he really couldn't find any mistakes he had made. He also thought that the leader might have some tasks for him, but there were many people in the Han tribe who were more capable than him, so there was no need to find him, so he was even more confused.
"Look here."
Luo Chong led him directly to a huge sand table in the office and asked while drawing the land of Muye County with a baton.
"Do you know where this is?"
Jiandun frowned and looked at it carefully. He was not very good at reading maps, but the sand table was made according to the terrain, and there were models and annotations of several counties of the Han tribe on it. Using these things as references for comparison, he soon knew where the land the leader asked about was.
"This is to the west of Xingang County and northwest of Fuma Pass. It is where our Jianjiao tribe used to graze sheep."
After Jiandun finished speaking, he suddenly realized something. The leader must have a mission for him, and the mission location happened to be the territory of his old tribe. Because he was more familiar with the place, he was specially called here, but he still couldn't think of what the specific mission was.
In Jiandun's impression, that area was all low hilly grasslands, as well as woods and plain shrubs. It seemed that there was nothing special to pay attention to. Could it be that the tribe had dug up a mine there again? He guessed curiously.
Seeing his thoughtful look, Luo Chong stopped talking nonsense with him and spoke straight to the point.
"Next year, our Han tribe will establish a new county city in this place, named Muye County. The local economy will be mainly based on animal husbandry, providing a large number of livestock and meat for several counties around our headquarters. In terms of agriculture, it will be supplemented by drought-resistant crops such as corn, wheat, millet, and sorghum. The initial population is tentatively set at 8,000 people.
Dashu recommended you to be the governor of this county. What do you think?"
Jiandun was stunned. He really didn't expect that the leader called him for such a thing, but after carefully analyzing the leader's construction goals, his thoughts instantly came through.
Muye County was originally the former sphere of influence of the Sharp Horn Tribe. He knew the environment there very well. In addition, he was familiar with the animal husbandry industry, which was more in line with the leader's requirements for the governor of Muye County.
It seems that the leader has figured out a lot of things, no wonder he was asked to come. Although he didn't particularly want to be the governor of Muye County, if the leader insisted that he go, he would not have any objection. That was the place where he grew up naked, and he had feelings for it. If he could build a civilized city on that barren grassland with his own hands, it would be an achievement.
Thinking of this, he was actually looking forward to the position of governor of Muye County. How should I put it? It was like a sense of achievement that he had become rich outside and returned to his hometown to build a road for the villagers in the dilapidated small village.
"Chief, I am willing to go." After thinking for a long time, Jiandun gave his answer.
Luo Chong nodded without surprise. Everyone is motivated. There are very few people in the Han tribe who are not enterprising. This is because of the influence of the times. The tribes and individuals who are not enterprising have been eliminated by nature. Such a good opportunity is in front of Jiandun, and he really has no reason to refuse.
"Well, since you agree, then this matter is settled. You will serve as the governor of Muye County next. However, I heard that you have never paid much attention to farming. This aspect is also the top priority when managing a place. After all, the Han tribe is still an agricultural tribe. Although Muye County is mainly based on animal husbandry, the basic things cannot be abandoned.
So I will arrange another deputy for you. Jiang Xuan, who joined the tribe last year, will serve as your chief historian and be in charge of the farming affairs of Muye County. You will be in charge of the overall situation. However, in terms of farming, you must also study hard after taking office this time, which will be more beneficial to your future development.
Do you understand what I said?"
Jiandun could not hear the leader's hint. Isn't this equivalent to telling him that if he studies hard and works hard, there will be opportunities for promotion in the future? Or he can be transferred to another place to serve as a governor alone, so he did not say a word and immediately saluted and accepted it.
However, Luo Chong reminded him again, "In addition to the population that will be migrated from various places to build Muye County, the entire Jiang clan will also be directly included. In addition, Jiang Xuan is the chief historian in charge of agriculture, so he may have some special ideas or want to replace you. You must find a way to suppress him in this regard. You can tell me at the critical moment and I will deal with him. But you can't rely on your status as the chief officer to deliberately oppress the Jiang clan members to provoke disputes.
Do your work well and don't cause trouble. Do you understand?"
"Yes, do your work carefully, stay vigilant, and don't take the initiative to cause trouble." Jiandun immediately repeated his understanding.
"Very good." Luo Chong patted his shoulder with satisfaction, and explained some matters to pay attention to when building the city and the arrangements for other things in the later stage, including animal husbandry, winter fodder storage, water conservancy and farming, and Eucommia ulmoides patrol and collection tasks.
After all these things were explained clearly, Luo Chong allowed him to leave.
At this time, in the Tang tribe, their leader Tang Ji had just called her niece to come over and personally discussed with Tang Yao about the mission to the Han tribe.
