The Prodigal Son of Zhenguan
Chapter 284
The county magistrate of Xiuning County never expected that the person who came here to buy tea was actually a royal relative from Chang'an City. At first, he thought he was a businessman who traded tea.
However, this prince was really generous, running all the way from Chang'an City to Huizhou.
He had also heard of Li Fu's name. Xiuning County was not a remote mountainous area, and it was close to Huizhou.
When the King of Jingyang was crowned king, the emperor issued an imperial decree to announce it to the world. As a county magistrate, he naturally knew the content of the imperial decree.
Today he saw the real person.
"If your highness is free, tonight, I will host a party and prepare some wine to welcome your highness." The county magistrate said with a bow.
"You are too polite, county magistrate. In this case, I will trouble you." Li Fu smiled and bowed in response.
He did not refuse the meal. Since his subordinates were going to do business here, it was necessary to get along well with the local officials. If he refused to treat the guests to a meal, wouldn't he be offending the county magistrate?
His tea mountain was still in Xiuning County.
Moreover, in the future, when dealing with the people here, the county magistrate would have to intervene.
Interpersonal communication was inevitable, and Li Fu was not self-righteous.
"No, no, no, in fact, it was also thanks to His Royal Highness the Prince." The county magistrate had a smile on his face.
It was just right to ask His Royal Highness the Prince what plans he had here while eating tonight, so that he could respond.
He dared not slack off on the nobleman from Chang'an City. After all, he had to go back. If he said something good or bad in front of His Majesty...
Damn it, it would affect his career.
Moreover, if King Jingyang wanted to do tea business here seriously, it would also be good for the people of Xiuning County.
If he needed to hire people, he would hire local people. The people could earn money and live a good life, which was a real achievement for him as a county magistrate.
Therefore, after knowing Li Fu's identity, the county magistrate of Xiuning County became even more enthusiastic about Li Fu.
In the afternoon, Li Fu did not go back. The county magistrate took Li Fu around the county government twice and told Li Fu about the situation in Xiuning County.
The county magistrate talked about a lot of things, but Li Fu did not tell him that he had another reason to come here, which was to suppress bandits by imperial order.
Before Dong Jiu and others had a thorough understanding of the situation, Li Fu would not tell anyone about this matter.
There is no impenetrable wall in the world. If the news leaked out, the gang on the mountain would be on guard against them. It would not be easy to take action again. The mountains are high and the forests are dense. After they hide, where can they go to scratch them?
Even if you want to fight, you must hit them with one blow.
In the evening, the county magistrate set up a table in the hall of the county government office, and the county magistrate's lawyer also came to accompany the feast.
Wu Liangye followed Li Fu, and Li Fu also let Wu Liangye sit down.
"It is a blessing for Xiuning County to welcome Your Highness." The lawyer said: "Your Highness must have seen that this side is mountainous. Although the mountains are flat, it is still not conducive to farming. The people don't have much land to plant. There are many people and little land. If the people want to make a living, they have to find another way out, or work for others, or do something else to make money.
Going up the mountain to pick tea, chop wood, hunt, and then take it to Huizhou City to sell for money, you don't earn much throughout the year.
I have heard about the tea mountains in the county, and most of the people nearby rely on picking tea, but the demand for tea is not too large after all, so it is difficult for the people to live a good life by relying on this."
The lawyer sighed as he spoke.
"Your Highness, you bought a tea plantation here, but the tea business is not easy to do." The county magistrate said.
I still have to remind you that this business is not easy to do......
"People are different, and the means of doing business are also different." Li Fu smiled and said, "I plan to build a tea house near the tea mountain, specializing in the tea business. When the time comes, whether it makes money or loses money, the Jingyang Wangzhai will take care of it, and the county magistrate does not need to worry."
"In that case, I have another unwelcome request." The county magistrate bowed and said.
"County magistrate, please speak."
"Your Highness, whether you do business here or build a tea house, you must have a lot of local people to work. I am the parent official of Xiuning County, and I also want the people of Xiuning County to live a good life. Please, Your Highness, if there is any work to be done, please ask the local people to do more work."
The county magistrate wanted to find something to make money for the people.
"The county magistrate does not need to worry at this time. If I need workers, I will definitely not go far away. When I was in Chang'an City, I also talked with the emperor and His Majesty.Having said that, I am also a member of the Li family. It is also one of my responsibilities as a royal relative to work for the welfare of the people. I understand what you mean, the county magistrate, is to increase the people's stable income. The tea house has been hiring workers for a long time. There may be many merchants who come here to collect tea, but there are not many people who are willing to invest money here and fix this business. Am I right? "
The county magistrate nodded.
"Your Highness is right."
"My investment here is 800 guan today. Once the tea house starts to be built, the amount to be spent will not be 800 guan. Purchasing tools, making various utensils in the tea house, and hiring people to work, one by one, are all expenses. For my Jingyang Wangzhai, this money is nothing, but there is one thing. I have invested a lot of money here, which has brought opportunities for the local people in Xiuning County to work and earn money. This is a good thing.
I hope such good things can last for a long time. "
What Li Fu meant was that I can help the people get rich here and let them live a good life, but you government officials must also ensure that you don't make trouble in it, no matter how hot the business is and how much money you make, don't try to get your hands on things that you shouldn't.
Li Fu is not afraid of them.
If they don't want this achievement, there are plenty of tea mountains, and there must be officials who can see clearly and want this achievement.
Moreover, if they want to get their hands on the tea house, do they think that Li Fu, the prince, is just a decoration?
Even if there is a big family behind a county magistrate, Li Fu is not afraid at all.
There is more than one place to make money, and more than one business to make money.
Before departure, the share of the tea business had been decided. Behind Li Fu, there are two big Buddhas standing. Go ahead and offend them, offend them to death.
Then wait for "Candy Crush" and it will be over.
Li Yuan has a bad temper, Li Shimin has a bad temper, and Li Fu has a good temper?
The young man is more irritable.
