Sir, you have to pay more

Chapter 622 Governor's Official Meeting

The eldest sister Jia Yun did not get married in Beijing, because the second uncle Jia Dazhong took the initiative to leave the flag three years ago, and moved his family to Linyu County, Yongping Prefecture, Eastern Jingdong.

This place is not far from Shanhaiguan.

The attitude of the uncle and nephew on the matter of raising the flag is really quite different.

In order not to be thrown out of the flag, the nephew is worried that his kidneys are going to be weak.

Uncle is good, apart from anything else, he received the relevant subsidies from the Dutong Yamen, sold the house and decisively left Beijing to become a Han Chinese.

If it's not that the nephew is not a nephew at all, maybe the choice of being an uncle is the right one.

The letter was sent by Daquan, because the second uncle didn't know that his nephew had become the governor of Zhili, so the letter was sent directly to the elder brother's house in Mancheng, Beijing.

The letter said that the eldest sister married a local scholar named Lin in Luan County, who was three years older than the eldest sister.

The family is also from the Han army flag, and their ancestors once fought Sun Kewang and Liu Wenxiu of the Daxi Army with Li Yingying, the governor of Sichuan and Shaanxi. However, the Lin family raised the flag as early as the 27th year of Qianlong, and they were among the first batch of flags.

My second uncle, Dazhong, had a good relationship with Lin Xiucai's father when they were in Qili. They grew up in mud together when they were young, so they went to Linyu County after leaving the flag, and rented [-] acres of land guarding the Manchurian soldiers there. In addition, during the slack season, Lin Xiucai and Lin Xiucai's father went outside the pass to sell some furs in the pass, and the whole family lived a decent life.

It may be because of the burden of the family's life. Jia Dazhong has not been back to Beijing since he was released from the flag. That is, when he first arrived in Linyu and settled down, he sent two letters to his elder brother, telling him about his recent situation.

At that time, Jia Liu was enlightening in Jinchuan, before ascension.

Later, when I went back to Beijing to marry a wife, I thought about notifying my second uncle to come back for a wedding, and I asked someone to deliver the letter to my second uncle.

In short, all kinds of coincidences happened, and what happened in the end, Jia Liu and this second uncle never saw each other.

Daquan confessed that his son would go to Linyu no matter how busy he was, because he was the only male in the fourth generation of the Jia family, and he was an uncle marrying a daughter. The human relationship is in place, so that this family relationship can continue.

As for myself, Daquan really can't go.

It's not that he can't take a car when he's too old, but that his wife is about to give birth.

Aunt Zhao has a bulging stomach, and it is estimated that she will give birth in a few days.

It was just bad luck. Aunt Zhao's husband, Qin San, died in front of the army. He said that he was ambushed by thieves when he was transporting food to the front line. It's a pity that this official has only been in office for half a year.

Sichuan Luying specially sent people to report the funeral, and sent over 35 taels of silver for Qin San's death in the line of duty to Aunt Zhao.

As a result, Aunt Zhao almost fainted when she got excited. After waking up, she cried and told her unfortunate life experience. How could such a big belly hurt her body so much? Daquan was afraid of a mistake, and she was waiting in front of her every day, so she dared not Leaving Beijing for Linyu to drink my niece's wedding wine.

So he asked his son to go on his behalf, and asked someone to bring 100 taels of silver notes and a pair of pure gold bracelets to his second brother Dazhong, which was a measure of his affection for his niece as an uncle.

It's ashamed to say that Jia Liu really didn't take care of his second uncle's family in the past two years.

Thinking about how much the second uncle loved him when he was a child, I decided to take the time to go there no matter what, and settle the matter of the Shanhaiguan garrison by the way.

Shanhaiguan has a Manchurian garrison of 1200 men.

1200 people were not many, and Jia Liu would not be interested in taking care of them if they were left elsewhere, but this Manchurian army was stationed at Shanhaiguan, so he had to go there.

See if you can firmly control this important town that isolates the inside and outside of the pass, so that in the future, the descendants of Aixinjueluo in Jia's Daiqing will not want to run outside the pass and cause him trouble.

The eldest sister Jia Yun's wedding is on the twelfth day of the eighth month, and today is the second day of junior high school, and there are still ten days left, so there is absolutely enough time.

Jia Liu asked Shuan Zhu to tidy up and officially ended his devil training in Dagu Water Camp.

A month of heavy military training had put him, the governor, through a terrible training, and his belly was sticking out.

There is no way, I eat too much sea cucumber.

The results of the large-scale military training are remarkable. It is true that there are officials like officials, and soldiers like soldiers.

Not to mention that the appearance of the entire navy has been turned upside down, at least the overall look is comfortable.

Before leaving, he told Zamur, who was acting as the deputy admiral of the navy, and took people away from Dagu to Tianjin.

This trip to Tianjin is mainly to talk with Xu Ji, the top leader in Tianjin.

There are three main topics of discussion.

The first is to organize and train the new army in Tianjin.

Jia Liu plans to train new troops in three towns in Tianjin, one of which will be recruited locally in Tianjin, and the other two towns will be recruited in Shandong.

The recruiting of soldiers in Tianjin will definitely trouble Xu Ji, the local leader. Without the cooperation of the governor, even Jia Liu, the governor of Zhili, would not be able to directly mobilize the officials below to do things for him.

On the other side of Shandong, he has already sent a letter to the governor Cathay and the only one in the army to say hello, and sent a working group to Shandong, hoping that Cathay and the only one can cooperate with the recruitment work.

The reason why the two towns were recruited in Shandong was also because Shandong had just experienced the Qingshui Rebellion last year, and the people's livelihood was in decline. Therefore, recruiting two towns in Shandong will firstly allow a large number of unemployed youths to have jobs, and secondly, it will also reduce the pressure on public security in Shandong.

Regarding recruitment, Jia Liu actually didn't have too many requirements.

Literacy is the best, but illiterate is also acceptable, mainly rural youth.

After the soldiers are recruited into the camp, don't rush to train, first conduct a literacy campaign for a month or two, and try to make the soldiers able to write and read the simplest Chinese characters that are commonly used in daily life.

For this reason, Jia Liu is also planning to simplify the traditional characters.

The second thing is about the Beiyang Commercial Yamen and the Tianjin Customs Supervision Yamen.

The establishment of these two yamen, Lao Fu, has been given, the former is from the third rank, and the latter is the fourth rank.

Equivalent to two department-level units.

If two new units are established in Tianjin at once, and they are related to maritime trade and commerce, then the Tianjin governor's office must get a share of it.

It is the question of how to distribute the cake.

The third thing is the east-west provincial road that Jia Liu plans to build.

That is, the avenue built from Tianjin Port to Baoding, as well as the prefectural roads and county roads extending around Tianjin Port.

All of these require cooperation from Tianjin.

In addition, the matter of Beiyang trade involves the issue of attracting investment.

After the hardware is finished, there must be a merchant to buy and sell the goods.

This requires the government to issue a series of policies to promote business, so Jia Liu and Xu Ji, a local snake, have to study and discuss.

Because Tianjin was notified in advance, Xu Ji specially sent people out of the city to welcome him, and he even led the Tianjin gentry to line up at the city gate to welcome the governor of Zhili.

It has been almost a year since the last meeting with Xu Ji. At that time, Jia Liu was still the prime minister of the third rank, but now he is the governor of the second rank. In name, he is still the superior of Xu Futai. It is true that the world is changing so fast that people Jaw-dropping.

After the welcoming ceremony, Jia Liu entered the city accompanied by Xu Ji, and then the two parties started a formal meeting at the Governor's Yamen.

What made Xu Futai not used to it was that several reporters from the "Daqing Daily" were present to record the meeting between the governor and him.

This makes the talks quite official.
