The most powerful emperor grandson of the Tang Dynasty

"Thank you for your promotion, Your Highness. Thank you for your promotion."

Zhu Guozhang was so moved that he cried. For him, he was originally in charge of the post station, and there were not so many officials traveling from north to south here, so he only had three people under his command.

Now he has become the governor of Jiaozhou in an instant. Even if it is a dream, he would not dare to have such a dream!

Although Ruan Yuanjia is a bit interesting next to him, he has no choice but to be reincarnated poorly. Who makes him not a Han? Even though his mother is a Han, his father is indeed a Jing nationality.

The main blame is that my mother didn't plan well back then, so she didn't know how to marry a Han. If she had to marry a Han, and with her own resume, how could the governor be satisfied?

In the past, when the imperial court selected officials, they would assign you a suitable official position regardless of which clan you were from. But now that His Highness Taisun has come, it seems that the previous method is of no use. You have to take a look first. It depends on your background.

"Don't feel inappropriate in your heart. If you can perform well in your position, you will have opportunities for promotion in the future."

Li Xiang knew that Ruan Yuanjia must be thinking too much, so Li Xiang had to give some comfort.

Ruan Yuanjia naturally knelt down to show his loyalty. If he had not followed His Highness Taisun, just look at the leaders of the major families in the city. Their bodies would have been completely cold by now.

"From now on, your work will be separated. Ruan Yuanjia, you will be mainly responsible for collecting intelligence on Chenla, especially the military situation in the border areas, as well as some situations in their court. I will give you three months. I need to see a copy of Full report."

After Li Xiang said this, Zhu Guozhang still didn't understand what was going on. After all, this guy's political sense was a little poor. He was originally in charge of livestock. He probably wouldn't be able to do well in this position after three months.

But Ruan Ruan Jia is different. This guy was born in the imperial examination, and he has been in the position of governor for a long time, so he can understand Li Xiang's meaning clearly.

"Does His Highness want to attack Zhenla?"

Ruan Yuanjia boldly asked, if it were in the past, he felt that there was not much chance of winning, mainly because the two sides often fought against each other, and our side always lost more than we won.

"Yes, do you have any ideas?"

Li Xiang did not hide his strategic purpose. After all, a large number of troops and various supplies would arrive in the next half month. By then, even if Li Xiang did not say anything, the purpose would be obvious.

"My subordinates will conduct strict inspections and get all the information His Highness needs. If there are more troops like this, it won't be a problem to capture them."

Ruan Yuanjia was not idle in the past, and he also knew about the armies outside the border.

"But..." This guy raised his head and glanced at Li Xiang first. There were some words he couldn't say directly. If he made Li Xiang unhappy, he might have to go down to accompany the family heads.

"We must correct this problem in the future. If you have anything in your mind, just say it. As long as it involves military and national affairs, no matter what you say is right or wrong, I will first pardon your innocence."

These people were in contact with Li Xiang for the first time, so they were not clear about many things. After hearing what Li Xiang said, they all breathed a sigh of relief and knew how to report to Li Xiang in the future.

"If it is in the coastal plain area, then we have a better chance of winning. An army like His Highness only needs [-] people to destroy their border defenses. But if it enters the mountains and forests, then I'm afraid..."

Ruan Yuanjia entered the role very quickly. Now he regards himself as Li Xiang's side, and he also wants to show off in front of Li Xiang. Otherwise, if there are so many talents around Li Xiang, how could he think of himself in the future? And From what Li Xianghua said, he will leave here soon and will not stay here for too long.

"Don't worry, even these people under me can fight in the mountains and forests. But since you raised this issue, I will give you another task. Try to find out their main fighting methods in the mountains and forests."

Although Huo Qubing has already led people to investigate, it would be a good idea to take this opportunity to try Ruan Yuanjia, not to mention that Ruan Yuanjia is a smart man. If there is an unexpected gain, it will be more beneficial to our war.

"Please rest assured, Your Highness, I will do my best in this humble position."

Ruan Yuanjia said very confidently, and Zhu Guozhang next to him also made up his mind. Although this task was not given to him, he still had to send his men to investigate.

Although he didn't have many subordinates in the past, now he has been the governor of Jiaozhou for three months. Even if it is three months later, he will be the governor of Jiaozhou, and someone will definitely defect to him.

"Your mission is different from his. You need to renovate the port. The current port is definitely not good. Later, there will be dedicated people to contact you to conquer [-] migrant workers throughout Jiaozhou and let them build the port well. For repairs, funds will also be earmarked.”

One is responsible for inquiring about information, and the other is responsible for repairing the port. When the war actually breaks out, it is basically impossible to rely on the land for supplies. Li Xiang can also see very clearly along the way. Even if they drive lightly and simply, it will cost a lot of money. strength.

"Please rest assured, Your Highness, I will do my best even if I am humble."

Zhu Guozhang was relieved when he heard that he was on this mission. If he wanted to talk about his relationship with the local people, he would definitely not be as good as Ruan Yuanjia. After all, this guy is a local and we are Han.

But if we want to build a port, I’m afraid Ruan Yuanjia can’t compare to us. When he was the director of the post station, he also did a lot of research on these things. Now with His Highness’s support and the allocation of funds from above, there are many local people. When the common people don’t have enough to eat, wouldn’t it be easy to find three thousand civilian husbands?

In this day and age, as long as you can keep these civilians fed, any kind of work can be done for you, let alone repairing the port a little, even building a new one is no problem, but you have to manage You have to pay for meals.

Li Xiang didn't need to ask the court for money to repair the port. Several big families had already had their homes confiscated. There were many valuable things in the house. He only needed half of it, and the money to repair the port would be more than enough. Li Xiang Xiang can also save the other half for military expenses... (End of this chapter)
