“As you know, Longchuan was recently flooded. All of you here are figures with heads and faces in the three counties of Lingnan. Today’s banquet is in the hope that you will be generous. ”

Li Youzhi said.

With his status, there is nothing to worry about.

A group of squires, all with embarrassed faces.

Whether the donation is generous or not, it depends on how much benefit the government can give them? Enough of the benefits and absolute generosity!

A voice asked weakly.

“Governor Li, we helped the victims, what good can you give us?”

This question has asked everyone’s heart.

Wu Yu stood up and accused: “The disaster victims are so pitiful, what benefits do you talk about?” Is there compassion? ”

Li You secretly gave Wu Yu a rewarding look.

Cooperation is like this, you need to sing a white face, his red face is good to sing.

Moral accusations are an excellent means of undercutting prices.

The squires were silent and familiar with the process.

Li You spoke at this time.

“Longchuan County now has 280,000 mu of affected paddy fields. Whoever donates a million dollars can get 10,000 acres of paddy fields. ”

Wow……

The squires below all began to discuss in a low voice.

When the land was first opened, it was the Lingnan Legion that led everyone to open it together. The well-cleared paddy fields were given to the Baiyue people for free.

However, these gentry have no share, and if they want paddy fields, they must pay for them.

The price of a hundred dollars per acre is definitely not high for them, but it is not low either.

But Li You said very clearly, the minimum purchase starts from 10,000 mu. In this way, the amount of money required is too large, and the pressure on anyone is not small.

After the discussion.

A squire asked aloud.

“Governor Li, is this price a little higher? We can’t afford it. ”

Li You smiled, but his tone was tough.

“That’s the price, it can’t be changed. However, in appreciation of your disaster relief efforts, I can designate some businesses to cooperate with the good performance of disaster relief. ”

Li You threw another bait.

These squires knew very well that the business of the imperial court had always been cooperating with them.

But now, Li You tossed like this, and the previous cooperative relationship suddenly became unstable. It can be toppled at any time.

Lingnan is now in the stage of large-scale development. There is too much business to do.

No one wants to fall behind others at this time.

The brains of these squires turn very quickly. As long as you can maintain a good relationship with Li You, are you afraid that there will be no time to make money in the future?

In this way, the most decisive person, while others had not reacted, quickly made a move and subscribed to a large number of paddy fields.

280,000 mu, a very huge number, sold out in an instant.

In the name of disaster relief, the Governor’s Mansion received 28 million at a time!

There was a lot of money, but Li You did not dare to intercept it.

By doing so, he is already in violation. If the emperor knew about it, it was possible to cut off his head.

However, if this money is spent, it will all be spent on the victims. The emperor would not blame him, and no one would be able to touch him.

The squires, since they have decided, are also decisive.

When I went back, I let people go one car after another, and sent all the money to the county.

Looking at the mountains of copper coins, Wu Yu’s two eyes sparkled.

“Governor Li, how do we spend so much money?”

Li You gave him a chestnut.

“How to spend? You don’t want to move a money! This is my money for building a shipyard! ”

Build a shipyard?

Wu Yu understood.

From the beginning, Li You wanted to find an opportunity to steal the fishing skills of the Minyue people.

Materials for shipbuilding and net weaving are also available in Lingnan.

Just buy a batch back and imitate it. The shipyard provided relief to the victims by issuing wages.

The dragon industry of shipbuilding and fishing can also take the opportunity to develop.

Wu Yu is really admired.

Being able to spend money on such a meticulous calculation, Li You really used his heart.

How to say, this time Longchuan was affected, under Li You’s treatment, but became an opportunity for the development of Lingnan.

It’s really a blessing and a curse.

Soon, Yu Huan and they returned from Minzhong County.

After seeing the fishing methods of the Minyue people, Yu Huan really realized that this was indeed an opportunity for the victims of Longchuan.

After understanding this, he began to appreciate Li You from his heart.

As soon as he returned, Yu Huan took everyone to the county to find Li You.

Li Youlong knew that they would accept his plan. What options do victims have? Besides, this choice is actually very good.

A lot of money was sprinkled, and shipyards were built.

Ramie for the preparation of fishing nets is paid for by the shipyard.

Entire families of the victims mobilized, and women and children, old and weak, went to collect ramie and weave fishing nets. Strong laborers go to shipyards to work. Those who did not want to work, borrowed the built boats and went out to sea.

For a time, the lives of the victims were remarkable. On the contrary, they have a better life than those who are not affected by the disaster.

This attracts more people to start paying attention to this emerging thing.

More and more Baiyue people began to give up cultivated land and began to work as fishermen. Let the South China Sea fishery suddenly prosper.

However, this prosperity has led to two consequences.

The first is cultivated land.

While working as fishermen, the Baiyue people also want to worry about their own cultivated land. Someone even wants to sell.

It was stopped by Li You’s strict order.

Cultivated land is not allowed to be sold privately. However, it can be returned to the county magistrate and receive some subsidies.

These cultivated fields are then given to those who are willing to cultivate the land. The more land they planted, the more income they earned.

Second, the number of fishermen has increased rapidly.

Then, the fish meat faced a situation of low prices. Later, the income of fishermen and the income of cultivators were almost equal.

This is a natural dynamic balance, not a human control. But it’s interesting.

At this time, businessmen who saw the opportunity began to raise crocodiles.

Using cheap fish to raise expensive crocodiles is a very lucrative business.

This is also a kind of business that can only be brought about by the prosperity of the fishing industry in Nanhai County.

Crocodile skin is a valuable skin, and in some large cities, the price is very high. Because it is not easy to catch, it is rare to encounter crocodile skins for sale.

Businessmen grasped exactly that.

In short, all this at the moment makes Li You very comfortable.

He felt his luck returning.

If this continues, it may not be long before he can return to Xianyang with his political achievements.

Now, that’s his number one goal.

Wu Yu and Li You have different ideas. He was a student of Lees, but he was not brilliant.

Just because people are diligent, they are arranged by Li You’s side.

If you can be an official yourself, who wants to keep helping others?

Wu Yu knew that if he returned to Xianyang, he would definitely be fine.

Therefore, his wish is that before Li You leaves, he can arrange an official for himself in the three counties of Lingnan.
