Waves at the end of Han Dynasty

Chapter 99
Yizhou, Taipei County.

After receiving the order, Ouyang Zhi quickly returned to the station. He first called Chen Wentian aside alone, and told him that his lord, Ouyang Qi, was very busy recently and would not meet him until he came back from Tainan.

Then he asked the other talented people who would like to visit Tainan County together. In the end, only Kan Ze and the other two agreed to go with some hesitation.

Because Ouyang Zhi also told them that those who don’t want to go can stay in the post to prepare for the upcoming assessment, and even go to the nearby Taipei Library to look up materials...

This is the process of Longwei Mansion for the introduction of talents. Take them to various places in Taipei County to observe first, and then give questions and assessments. Based on each person's response, the future arrangement is decided, whether to go to the school to continue studying, or to do a little work. Take some low-level positions directly after training, or ignore them and let them fend for themselves...

As for leaving Yizhou and returning to their hometown, it is impossible. In order to ensure that these people will not reveal the situation in the mansion, they can only stay here forever.

Therefore, after Chen Wentian learned about the situation, he was quite surprised that there were still people willing to visit Tainan with him instead of staying to prepare for the exam. You must know that this is more important than the college entrance examination for future generations, and directly determines their future fate.

However, when he asked the reason of the three of them, the other party seemed to be perfunctory, obviously not wanting to tell the truth...

Chen Wentian didn't go into it too deeply. After all, he was still in a more dangerous situation. At most, these talented people would be imprisoned here for life, and if he didn't get it right, he might lose his life...

He didn't really believe the reason why Ouyang Qi was very busy. He didn't come to see each other for so long. Either he wanted to test something, or he was holding back something...

It's just that he has nothing to do about it. After all, it's in someone else's territory, so it's better to find another way out while the two sides don't tear their faces.

----

Completely different from the roads in Taipei County, the roads along the way in Tainan County are very bumpy. If you look out through the carriage, you can find that there is only a layer of gravel on the ground, which is different from the surrounding vegetation. This is the so-called road.

Ouyang Zhi explained that currently there are many projects in various parts of the mansion, and there is a serious shortage of labor. The labor used here is some newcomers from Yizhou, who are clumsy and can only do some simple work.

Therefore, the roads here can only be used according to the lowest passing standards...

"Zhi was born on this island since he was a child, and has never seen other places. I wonder if you have traveled to other places before coming to Yizhou?"

Ouyang Zhi suddenly asked such a question without any warning, which surprised Chen Wentian, because before that, he never took the initiative to ask any questions, but they asked, and he answered.

Chen Wentian looked vigilantly at Tian Kui at the side, and then gave a simple answer based on some local conditions and customs in Huang County and Jiaodong, but from Ouyang Zhi's demeanor, he still seemed not satisfied with such an answer, Thinking about new questions to get more information.

From the abnormal behavior of the other party, he felt a sense of probing, but if Ouyang Zhi was really just probing himself, it would be a good thing instead, which means that the senior officials of Longwei Mansion just wanted to find out more before meeting His details...

On the carriage, the atmosphere gradually became more subtle. Everyone was still chatting and laughing happily, but they seemed to be secretly hiding their thoughts.

As for Kan Ze, he behaved more casually, answering every question. Maybe he didn't realize the reasons behind these questions, maybe he felt that these situations were insignificant, and instead took the itinerary of these few people as an opportunity to get closer to Ouyang Zhi...

Several people tossed and tossed on the rough road for three days before finally arriving in Tainan County.

As Chen Wentian expected, Tainan City was indeed built along the sea, because they saw the sea not far away after getting off the car, he guessed that the materials needed for the new city in Yizhou were transported by land and sea.

For the Longwei Mansion, since it has such a powerful means of transportation as the Longwei Ship, it must be used more. Even though the sea navigation in the Han Dynasty was more risky, for this kind of offshore sailing around the island, the Longwei Ship's The advantages are still huge, and the transportation volume is large and fast. If I am a high-level executive in Longwei, I will definitely develop the surrounding coastal areas first, and then advance to the central mountainous area...

Moreover, in terms of terrain, the entire Yizhou Island near the sea does not have that kind of cliff-like terrain, and is usually relatively flat. Coupled with the excellent climate, it is a unique place for living and farming.

After Chen Wentian and the others got off the carriage, they looked around aimlessly, while Ouyang Zhi followed behind absent-mindedly.

Regarding the communication with Chen Wentian and others these few days, Ouyang Zhi was a little disappointed, he still didn't get any special information.

The other party seemed to be aware of some of his intentions. Therefore, Ouyang Zhi was a little annoyed, feeling that he couldn't speak, and instead failed to meet the master's request. How should he report after this...?
Tainan County also has no intention of repairing the city wall. However, there is a military camp built on the flat ground on one side. live here...

I don't know if it was a psychological effect, but Chen Wentian even vaguely heard some screams coming from it occasionally, so he frowned and walked away quickly.

After the barracks is the port connecting sea and land.

The port in Tainan County is still under intense construction, but it can be seen that it will be completed soon.

The seaport project should be the priority of Tainan County. Teams of laborers are busy in this area, and the watchers on the side occasionally yell and beat with whips, forcing them to speed up the progress...

Chen Wentian couldn't help shaking his head when he saw it. It seems that the management level of this senior is still not good. Even if he wants to squeeze the power of the natives and barbarians, he doesn't need to use such a stupid method. If there is oppression, there will be resistance. The progress of the project will be affected instead.

However, Chen Wentian still didn't delve into it, because the few medium-sized ships parked in the port quickly attracted his attention. hope.

He secretly looked at the map of Yizhou in the posthouse. The so-called Tainan County was probably near Lukang in the west of Taichung City. This is a relatively narrow area of ​​the Taiwan Strait, not too far from the mainland.

If there is a chance to escape to Tainan County in the future, with the less meticulous management here, maybe there is hope to get a boat, and then sail across the strait, and then return to Dahan from Jiaozhou. It is also feasible...

He secretly glanced at Tian Kui at the side, and found that the other party was also watching the ship intently, so he felt relieved.He had communicated with Tian Kui before setting off, and Tian Kui promised that he would secretly remember the escape route.

Sensing that Ouyang Zhi behind him was watching him secretly again, Chen Wentian immediately changed direction and stopped paying attention to the situation at the port.

At this time, thick white smoke began to rise from the dense forest in the other direction, which seemed to be on fire.

The rest of the people also noticed the abnormality. After a while, the white smoke gradually turned black, and they rushed towards the sky like countless monsters with claws and claws. They were a little nervous for a while...

The mountain fires in the Han Dynasty also belonged to the existence of divine power. In the face of these natural forces, it is difficult for human beings to resist, so they can only be in awe.

However, Ouyang Zhi said proudly at this time:

"I don't want you guys to be lucky this time, and to be lucky enough to see the disposal of Vulcan's land reclamation in the mansion. Don't panic, the fire will go out soon..."

"I don't know if the fire is meant to burn the trees and open up the land for farming?"

Kan Ze approached Ouyang Zhi and asked on purpose. He thought he was already familiar with him, and began to show some extraordinary insights on purpose, hoping to help him in his future career.

Unexpectedly, this behavior has become the focus of Ouyang Zhi, who has another task of probing. He feels that it is extremely unusual for Kan Ze to see through the intention of setting fire to the forest in the mansion with Kan Ze's age. Could it be that this kid is the master who wants to test man of?
After Ouyang Zhi complimented Kan Ze against his will, he took a few people to a pasture backed by a high mountain, saying that this place was created by Vulcan.

Several people were naturally amazed at Longwei Mansion's ability to turn decay into magic, and Chen Wentian also pretended to be amazed.

However, he soon discovered the difference in the pasture. All the broad beans and a special plant were planted here. Some of them looked like pastures of later generations, but he was not sure whether it was alfalfa.

Looking at the huge green pasture, Chen Wentian suddenly understood that the Ouyang family was planning to raise war horses here...
