Chapter 398 The new prefect
In order to ensure the military power and the loyalty of the soldiers, Wang Xuan specially made a new plan. Every thousand households of the soldiers' families will build a village independently. In this way, the entire village will be Wang Xuan's absolute supporters.

This treatment, including the previously recruited soldiers from Fuzhou Prefecture and Quanzhou Prefecture, is also implemented at the same time. In this way, in the five coastal prefectures, each prefecture has six large villages of absolute supporters of Wang Xuan.

In these military villages, Wang Xuan invested a lot of money in livestock and agricultural tools for farming, unified construction of water power, promotion of education and construction of schools, absolutely guaranteeing that the soldiers have no worries and 100% loyalty.

With such a policy alone, Wang Xuan spent more than 50 mu of land. Especially in Funing Prefecture, he deliberately coordinated and replaced [-] mu of land. The other party didn't dare not change, after all, how many other parties still took advantage of it.

After Wang Xuan's operations continued, the entire Fujian Province was blown up. This is a total of more than 50 mu of land!
During this period of time, no matter the family, big or small, were discussing Wang Xuan's big deal.

Above a restaurant, a group of drinkers were talking about this kind of thing.

"Is this Wang Xuan crazy? This is more than 50 mu of land, which is an immortal foundation that can be passed on for thousands of years. You must know that the Lin family has only accumulated less than 20 mu of land after two dynasties. If I have I will never let go of this 50 mu of land!"

"No, although the land is worth five taels of silver per mu, it doesn't mean that you can buy 10 mu of land for [-] taels of silver. After all, there is only so much land, and someone sold a large amount of land for no reason. what!"

Wang Xuan's recruitment of soldiers and rebuilding of the village were done openly. It was impossible to hide these things. Therefore, in a short period of time, it spread throughout Fujian, restaurants and teahouses everywhere, and no one talked about it.

Even among the families that have cooperated deeply with Wang Xuan, they are also talking about these things.

"Fart, you can comment on what Master Wang does? In the future, you are absolutely not allowed to talk about these things in public! People with your ideas will never have 50 acres of land!" Patriarch Xing immediately became angry, and he punished At home, Wang Xuan is the only one who follows the lead.

Only the upper echelons of the family know the secret of Wang Xuan's operation.

"In the words of Mr. Wang, you are short-sighted, and you can only gain if you give up. Besides, the annual profit of this 50 mu of land is not very big. The wharf of Mr. Wang is the real daily profit."

"In that huge new city, you know how much money Wang Xuan made just by selling houses. There are so many shops, one next to the other, and the monthly rent alone is the same, not to mention the warehouses behind, the trading center, and the docks. costs, not to mention the ever-expanding shipyards, steelworks!"

"Do you think that no one is jealous of these profits? But who dares to move, let alone, what about the seven great families, they will be wiped out in ashes. Now, even the court dare not touch the old man. There are really tens of thousands of troops."

"According to Master Wang, after five or six years, when a group of soldiers retire, they can be recruited again from which villages. As long as these lands exist, these villages will have an endless supply of soldiers. That is the real foundation! "

Recruiting troops, allocating land, and building villages cannot be done in a few days. For this reason, Wang Xuan recruited some staff again, from educating talents to small officials in the government. This exam is like a small imperial examination The same, but it really attracted a large number of unsatisfactory people.

Under the centuries-old imperial examination system, a large number of scholars appeared. However, there are only a few positions in the officialdom, and there are many scholars who have achieved something but have nowhere to play. For a powerful person like Wang Xuan, it is still necessary to recruit some people. Easy, there are too many people willing to work.

At least in Fujian, the various stewards under Wang Xuan's command are no less prestige than those court officials.

Wang Xuan can just tell the people below about these matters, it is impossible for him to care about everything, at most he will go to inspect occasionally, that's all.

……

This morning, in the martial arts field in the backyard, when Wang Xuan was practicing sword skills, he accidentally glanced away and saw Ye Huo standing quietly at the edge. Then he slowly stopped.

Immediately, a servant brought a towel, and Wang Xuan gently wiped the sweat off his body, then turned his head and asked, "What's the matter?"

"The trusted prefect of Fuzhou has arrived and is living in Qiushi. Qi Hongliang brought someone to clean him up."

"Has all the information on this person been checked?" Wang Xuan asked lightly. Wang Xuan also fought for the new Fujian magistrate, but the number of officials he wooed was really limited. On this point, he had never fought. other side.

"I've found out, I'm from Suzhou, from the Donglin family."

"How many people will you bring with you when you take office this time?"

"There are only five on the surface, but I don't know about it secretly."

Wang Xuan sat on the chair and smiled coldly when he heard the words, "No matter how many people he brings, everyone will be under surveillance, even if they urinate, they can't leave our sight. Pigeons are forbidden in the government office. Yes, direct people to shoot."

"Everyone in the open and in the dark will dig it out for me. All the things that come out of the government office must be inspected by our people. They are absolutely not allowed to pass on information blindly. If there are memorials or the like, they will be carefully inspected and unqualified. shall be destroyed.”

"Ok, I see!"

During this period of time, Wang Xuan should not be too arrogant. After all, the army has just started recruiting, and when all the [-] troops in the province are recruited and trained well, Wang Xuan will not be so cautious anymore.

But now, Wang Xuan doesn't want anyone to stab him.

The next day, after the handover of Qi Hongliang and the new prefect Xu Yangqiu, he came to Wang Xuan to say goodbye, and then went straight to Guangzhou to take office. In order to ensure Qi Hongliang's safety, Wang Xuan specially sent twenty The third-rate masters accompanied him, and they were used by Qi Hongliang's side from now on.

Of course, it is impossible to say that there is no hint of surveillance. Both of them understand this, and they don't say it explicitly.

……

The magistrate's yamen trusted Xu Yangqiu to send everyone away after chatting with all the people in the yamen with a smile, and then ordered the master to close the door, only the two of them were left in the room, and the other three were guarding the door.

Xu Yangqiu didn't trust anyone in the mansion. In fact, he didn't want to come here to take office. It's just that Wang Xuan's side is rising too fast, and Fujian is also on the rise. How can this not cause The attention of the big Jiangnan family.

It's not about dealing with Wang Xuan. It's not a hostile relationship. After all, they are thousands of miles away and there is no conflict of interest. They don't know what Wang Xuan's intentions are, just in case Playing chess is just a nail in Fujian.

In the future, whether it is to win over or something, in short, they are prepared.

Of course, this is just the thinking of these big families in Jiangnan. As for what Wang Xuan thinks in his heart, they have never considered it. in the eyes.

Who are they?

It is a big Jiangnan family with officials all over the court, it is a big Jiangnan family that controls the lifeline of the entire court, it is a big Jiangnan family that makes Ming Dynasty tremble three times when stomping its feet!
The only ones who can be regarded as opponents by them are their own people in Jiangnan, Huguang, Jiangxi, Zhejiang, and Nanzhili!

In other places, count as a ball!
"Master, according to the news, this Wang Xuan is the leader of the Fuzhou Mansion, and all the other big and small forces follow his lead. Do you want to pay a visit tomorrow, Master?"

"I must go. After all, this is a rule. The family asked me to come here to get in touch with Wang Xuan and see if I can win him over."

"Okay, I'll go to pay my respects."

"Okay, let's go."

Early the next morning, riding in the carriage, Xu Yangqiu went straight to Wang Xuan's mansion outside the city.

Sitting on the carriage, Xu Yangqiu couldn't help sighing: "The roads in Fuzhou Prefecture are really well repaired, smooth and smooth, and the carriage is also good, wide and comfortable. There is really no such thing in the north. I heard that it is all What did Wang Xuan do?"

"That's right, master, I heard before I came here that Wang Xuan made these things, including the four-wheeled carriages, which are relatively rare in Jiangnan. After all, even if the roads are bad, the carriages won't be able to run."

That master has also been an official with Xu Yangqiu for seven or eight years. He used to travel in sedan chairs, not to mention the slowness, and the up and down was very bumpy. Compared with the current conditions, it is indeed far worse.

"I also heard that Wang Xuan has built a new port city outside the city. I'll just take a look and see how it compares to my Jiangnan!"

"Hahaha, the master thinks too highly of Wang Xuan. How can this be compared with Jiangnan? It is a city built over hundreds of years. The so-called new city must be putting gold on his face. How could it be possible to build a city."

"Hahaha, don't ask how good this new city is, as long as it's not too bad, it should look like a small county town in Jiangnan. After all, it was built by one person."

The conversation between the two inside the car was clearly heard by the yamen servant in charge of driving the car outside, especially when he was bragging about Jiangnan and looking down on the new city, the yamen servant couldn't help but curl his mouth hard. Although he had never been to Jiangnan himself, he He doesn't think it can be much better than Xincheng. In terms of cleanliness alone, even Nanjing City, he doesn't think it can be better than Xincheng!

For the superiority of the new magistrate, a member of a big family in the south of the Yangtze River, the yamen servant is really angry!

Even if the other party shows a smiling face to you, they can clearly feel that it is just a kind of politeness, it just shows that the other party is educated and polite.

And definitely not think highly of you, let alone respect you.

You can't show mercy to this kind of person.
