Chapter 202 Jiujiang Disaster
In the next four or five days, Fusu also got a taste of the demeanor of Daqin's Louchuan Navy.

In the past, Chu State had the advantage of boats and sailors because there were many rivers within its borders. After Qin State defeated Chu State, all these became the wealth of Qin State.

In addition, in order to find the elixir, Yingzheng spent a lot of money to build a ship and let Xu Fu travel across the sea. Unintentionally, the boat masters of Daqin developed to a new height.

Looking at the building boats under his feet, Fusu was overwhelmed with emotion. This was not the first time he had seen a building boat on which Yingzheng crossed the Yellow River.

In this BC world, Fusu did not expect that the shipbuilding industry had reached such a developed level.

Fusu believes that even if the building boats under his feet cannot sail far away, in the future, Daqin will definitely be able to sail far away and bring a fortune from overseas back to Daqin.

The boat under my feet is hope!

And Fusu's speed was also extremely fast, arriving in Jiujiang five or six days later.On the way from Shu County to Jiujiang County, Fusu didn't stop for a moment, that's why he was so fast.

On the way towards Shouchun, Fusu and Sima Xin finally met up. Compared with Fusu, Sima Xin had come more than ten days earlier.

Fusu immediately asked: "Changshi, how is the disaster in Jiujiang?"

Sima Xin's face was full of sadness. Seeing this scene, Fusu asked doubtfully, "Could it be that the disaster has not been brought under control?"

Sima Xin cupped his hands and said, "My lord, the affairs in Jiujiang County are more complicated than imagined, and it's hard to explain clearly in just a few words."

Fusu frowned deeply. Originally, he came to Jiujiang just as a formality to see how the disaster situation in Jiujiang was being controlled. Why does it still look a little tricky now?

"Tell me specifically what is the difficulty?" Fusu immediately asked.

Sima Xin said: "Firstly, after I came to Jiujiang County, I saw the spring drought and asked the people to dig wells to save themselves, but the people were unwilling. The subordinates secretly found out the reason. Some people said that digging wells would break the ground veins. , causing disaster, so the people dare not."

"Secondly, some powerful families in the county are unwilling to cooperate with the government. Therefore, it is difficult to implement various disaster relief measures."

"Thirdly,..." Sima Xin glanced at Fusu cautiously, but did not continue.

"Say it quickly!" Seeing Sima Xin's appearance, Fu Su couldn't help urging.

"Thirdly, in the view of the people of Chu, we, the Qin officials, must be some people with ulterior motives. The common people have no half trust in the Qin officials, and they all think that the various actions that the Qin officials said are intended to be harmful to them. "

"..."

After listening to Sima Xin's statement, Fusu clenched his fists tightly. Things were far worse than imagined!

For a long time, Chu State has been the country with the weakest reforms among the Seven Kingdoms. When Wu went to Chu State's reforms, he encountered fierce backlash.Afterwards, Qu Yuan also intended to clean up internal governance and carry out reforms, but in the end, they all failed, and the failure was complete.

In the state of Chu, those aristocratic families are firmly entrenched in the local area, hindering the implementation of the central government's decrees.

The state of Chu looks extremely powerful, with vast mountains and rivers, but it is strong on the outside and strong in the middle. Relying on the vastness of the mountains and rivers, even if other countries can attack the cities of Chu, it will not last long.

And the people of Chu State, because of this, compared with the other six countries, are extremely ignorant.

In the past, although Wang Jian raised 60 troops and completely destroyed the Chu State, the Qin court could not exercise effective control in the Chu State due to the weak foundation of the Chu State Reform, and could only rely on the hereditary clans of the Chu State.

Fusu narrowed his eyes slightly. It seemed that the first and foremost thing to do in this disaster relief was to deal with the big clans in Chu State who were entrenched there.

In Fusu's mind, including the so-called digging of the ground veins, it was concocted by these aristocratic families. Otherwise, how could they profit from it?
Whenever there is a famine, it is the time for these people to make a fortune.

Fusu is already used to this, and knows the tricks they are playing.

Suddenly, Fusu glanced around and asked, "Where's the governor of Jiujiang County?"

Sima Xin said: "The county guard is sick and cannot come to see the young master."

Fusu's eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a little coldness, when is he not sick, but at this time he is sick!
During the conversation with Sima Xin just now, Fu Su faintly felt that something was wrong, and soon after he realized that there was no governor of Jiujiang County among the people who greeted him, so Fu Su became suspicious.

"Enter Shouchun."

Along the way, Fusu found that many buds that had just emerged had dried up. Fusu knew that the matter had become extremely urgent now.

It is now the middle of March, if you delay for some time, you will definitely miss the farming season, and by then, the impact will not only be spring drought, but famine.

Once there is a famine, no matter how much food and grass Qin Ting transfers here, it will be a drop in the bucket.

Jiujiang County is not small, and there are many people in it. By then, will the Qin court have so much food and grass to allocate?Even if there is, can it be transferred?

The plan for now is to replant immediately, and then dig wells to solve the urgent need first, and then gradually plan it.

However, it seems that it is not easy to do this!

Walking into Shouchun, Fusu sees a different scene.

Outside of Shouchun, looking at the withered and yellow seedlings in that field, it makes people feel nervous, but in this Shouchun, it is full of peaceful and peaceful atmosphere, and there is no slight impact of spring drought.

"What's that sound?" Near the Sheriff's Mansion, Fusu seemed to hear the sound of wind music in his ears, and he couldn't help being puzzled.

When he came to the gate of the Sheriff's Mansion, the gate was closed tightly, and Fusu's eyes became deep. He was sure that the sound of wind music that he heard just now came from the Sheriff's Mansion.

"Jiujiang County Magistrate, you are really in a good mood!" Fusu sneered, with some sarcasm in his mouth.

Sima Xin was shocked, and secretly lamented that the governor of Jiujiang County didn't know current affairs.

When he came before, the sheriff was also very arrogant, but now, I don't know how to deal with the young master Fusu in front of him.

Fusu looked at the sheriff's mansion in front of her, and went straight in.

Someone next to him was trying to stop him, but before he could do anything, he was captured by the soldiers behind Yingbu.

Fusu walked straight towards the source of the sound, and saw a house with the door closed.The sound of wind music came from it.

At this time, Fusu's eyes were full of murderous intent.

The disaster situation in Jiujiang County has not yet been brought under control, and the county guards are enjoying themselves here safely, which is really a joke!
Come to think of it, the reason why this sheriff is so confident is because he is the only one who can instruct those aristocratic families in the county.

If the situation here was known to those people in Jiujiang County, what would it be like?
