Chapter 2889

Man Bao took a sip of water and asked him, "what's the matter with Lu county magistrate?"

Bai Shan said, "he promised."

Of course, the county magistrate Lu promised. Otherwise, if Bai Shan and Guo Cheng were united, as Bai Shan said, Guo Cheng is a man who values profits and loves power. They will certainly have contradictions in Qingzhou City. As an assassin, his power is still great.

At that time, if Bai Shan forms an alliance with Guo Cheng, it will be the most unfavorable to him.

Man Bao thought and said, "these two days, I'll take Wen Tiandong to get familiar with the county, and then take him to the countryside. When Guo Jishi arrives, I'll talk to him about the development of the medical department."

Bai Shan nodded, "pay attention to safety when going to the countryside."

Man BAOYING.

Bai Shan took Zhou Liwei to get familiar with the county government these two days. He took him around to deal with all kinds of government affairs, mainly to let him get familiar with Fang County Cheng, Dong county Wei and others.

Fang Xiancheng couldn't help looking at Zhou Liwei's words. He felt that he should not be master Bai Shan, so he couldn't help asking, "where does your adult want to put Mr. Zhou?"

Bai Shan smiled and said, "take him to know the county government first."

However, Dong Xianwei felt something and couldn't help looking at Bai Shan.

Sure enough, within two days, Bai Shan took Zhou Liwei and Dong county lieutenant to the countryside and directly took them to the new salt farm in Dawa.

Many salt fields were opened here. The village head listened to Bai Shan's instructions and led the villagers to dig a deep gully and extend it. When seawater is poured back, it can flow into each salt field along these gullies.

Even if the sea water can't flush the Shanghai water, it's easy for them to pour the sea water into the gully.

But now, not only the salt field opened in front, but also the sunny land on the back of a hillside was leveled and sorted into ridges, which became divided fields one by one. At this time, the field was also sea water, but it was thinner.

No, it can't be said to be thin, but there are white crystals under the water, which seems to raise the ground a little, showing that there is less water.

When the village head saw him, he came forward excitedly, "county magistrate, come and see if we are right. Do you think there is salt in the field?"

Bai Shan came forward, reached into the field and twisted it. He twisted the white crystal of one finger, put it in his mouth and tasted it. It was a little bitter but salty. He nodded with satisfaction, "it's salt."

The village head knew it was salt, so he was so excited. He didn't expect the sun to dry salt.

Bai Shan asked, "have you used the salt here?"

The village head hurriedly said, "no, we don't dare to move without adults' orders."

Bai Shan smiled and said, "I want to compare the difference between the sun dried salt and the salt you boiled."

There are still some. The salt baked out is less bitter than the salt boiled out. Bai Shan ate two kinds of salt and mused, "why is salt boiled more bitter?"

His eyes looked back and forth on the sea water in the field, and finally looked at the two salt fields before and after, if he thought.

Dong Xianwei didn't want to dry the salt. Why is the bitterness lighter? He just felt that the innocence of Beihai county was going to change. He was a little excited and couldn't suppress his emotions. He asked Bai Shan, "Sir, the quality of these salts is better. Can you sell them at a better price?"

Bai Shan returned to his senses, slightly raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "nature."

He asked Dong county lieutenant, "who do you have a better relationship with, the two patrol inspectors in Beihai county?"

Dong county Lieutenant's heart jumped and immediately bowed his head and said, "the lower officer and Luo patrol can talk more. Occasionally, they make an appointment to drink together."

Bai Shan nodded and said to him, "ask him out for a drink after you go back."

He looked at the lush hillside not far away and said, "although the new salt farm doesn't need firewood to cook salt, it's not good to have a fire in such a good place. I'll order Luo patrol to come and garrison the new salt farm with people, and Dong county Lieutenant will help him."

Dong county Lieutenant immediately replied, "yes."

Bai Shan was satisfied, so he introduced Zhou Liwei to the village head, "this is the steward of Dawa salt farm. Zhou Liwei, you will listen to him in the future."

He also said to Zhou Liwei, "if you don't understand anything about the salt farm, you can ask the village head. I'll go back to the old salt farm and see if I can find two helpers for you."

Zhou Liwei responded.

If Zhou Liwei wants to manage the salt farm, he can't go back to the county. He lives directly in the village. Bai Shan said, "I'll set aside a sum of money for you. Later, you choose a piece of land nearby to build the house. Not only do you want to live, but also if there are long-term workers drying salt in the future."

Zhou Liwei responded.

The village head on one side looked anxious and hurriedly said, "Sir, the people in our village will work hard."

Bai Shan smiled at the speech: "under the same conditions, it is natural to give priority to the people in the village, but the salt field behind is expanded, so it is obviously not enough."

This land is vast and sparsely populated because it can't grow much food. Everyone's Valley is basically a fishing village, and some of it are mountains and forests. The village is also very small. They don't get much harvest by farming. Therefore, some villagers go to the sea to fish, and their life is better than that of Xiaowa village.

Even if it's just for the salt farm, he needs to recruit a lot of people. At that time, some people will migrate.

Bai Shan touched his chin thoughtfully. The population of Beihai county is still too small. If only some people could migrate from other places.

Look back and find out if there is a way to produce high yield on these lands. I dare not say how high the grain yield is. As long as it can be the same as that in the Central Plains, it can feed many people.

Bai Shan had a plan in mind, so he quietly told Zhou Liwei, "pay attention to appeasing the villagers' emotions. If you have time, go around and find a place suitable for building houses and living. If you want to build more Yantian, you must have houses."

Zhou Liwei responded and asked, "little uncle, do you want to find brine by the sea?"

He also saw the sea for the first time. He only saw well salt, but he didn't see sea salt. He asked, "is there salt under the sea?"

Bai Shan has memorized the pamphlet given by man Bao and pondered it. He said, "I have some and no, and I don't know whether this sea exists or not. You can find it when you are free. Maybe there will be."

"By the way, the sea is different from the river at the entrance of the village. Don't swim in the sea and be swept away by the waves. I'm not responsible."

Zhou Liwei: "... I'm not a child."

I'm a little older than you. Do you need to tell him about this?

Bai Shan walked away at ease. There was salt in the new salt farm. If he had to deal with the old salt farm, he would let go.

County Magistrate Dong whispered, "Sir, do you want to tell county magistrate Fang about this?"

Bai Shan pondered for a moment and said, "don't worry. Wait until the old salt farm is handled."

Dong Xianwei realized that he was Bai Shan's first confidant. No, he was the second confidant. The first confidant should be Zhou Liwei, who just took office.

However, Zhou Liwei is only a petty official, which can't be compared with him. County magistrate Dong feels that he is still the first confidant in terms of the scope of the county government.
