Chapter 545 Handing the shop Ranch


Chapter 545 Handing the Pasture

As the lunch break was approaching, Zhao Zhen held a banquet to entertain Zhao Shiqilang. During the meal, Zhao Zhen said to Zhao Shiqilang: "Shiqilang, please let the professor's apprentice take care of this chicken farm. This chicken farm is not a place for you to stay for a long time. When the chicken farm is stable, you still have to manage this eagle room. To this day, you have only raised an eagle owl, two elves and one horned eagle, and hunting is not enough."

Zhao Shiqilang, who was leaving the head, heard it and hurriedly said, "Don't worry, my husband, this chicken farm is now stable. There are three full-time farmers in the White Feather Chicken Coop. Now the chicken coop is hatching eggs. It takes only more than ten days before this batch of white feather chickens are out of the shell, and the villain can get out of it."

"Okay, when you get out, find more falcons to tame them."

After the meal, Zhao Shiqilang left and Zhao Zhen began to process the official documents.

The military official documents are not limited to time. Zhao Zhen will discuss with Wu Yong and others when they are sent. If they can be handled, they will make quick decisions and urgently let the [Primary Officer] Li San and [Scud] Liu Tong take turns to send them. Ordinary ones are the sergeant fast horse delivery.

It’s just that [Inquiry and Report Camp] is not used for this purpose, it can only be used for emergency response. The pigeon letter can only pass on a few words, which is not enough to pass on official documents.

To this end, Zhao Zhen has ordered all prefectures and counties to re-establish delivery shops, appoint managers, and recruit shop soldiers as the purpose of conveying official documents.

In the future, the official documents sent by each state will be divided into three levels according to the degree of emergency and urgent importance: step delivery, horse delivery and emergency foot delivery.

The mail is used to deliver ordinary non-confidential documents and also to send letters to the people. It travels 200 miles a day. Madu is used to pass emergency confidential documents, traveling 300 miles a day. The urgent delivery is used to convey important military and national documents, and travels 400 miles a day. In addition, there are gold-shaped cards that travel 500 miles a day, which is used to convey emergency documents of the court and emergency war reports on borders.

To this end, Zhao Zhen also transferred more than a hundred riding horses who were good at running and equipped them with delivery shops at the main transportation routes. The delivery shops in the river port area are also equipped with fast boats to facilitate the transfer of official documents on the water. Not only that, this delivery shop also has a hotel to receive officials coming and going.

Most of the documents sent recently were requested by various prefectures. After all, the management of the place cannot be separated from manpower. In the eight prefectures, Liangshan Prefecture has the most complete officials, and then Yizhou and Yanzhou, the land and population of the Qing Dynasty were completed, and the area was similar to Liangshan. The rest of the land and population of Qing dynasties were still in Qing dynasties. Weizhou and Qingzhou were all fine. Most of the officials, gentry and powerful people were cut off by Song Jiang, and the population of Qing dynasties was very fast. The three places of Mizhou, Laizhou and Dengzhou will be much more difficult, and there are many powerful people everywhere, and they can only rely on the army to maintain the suppression and slowly erode.

Of course, there were also those who saw the opportunity early, and Zhao Zhen also promoted several people to be officials to set an example. There are also many people who have paid donations to donate to officials in Liangshan.

All states and prefectures also select talented people from them and are awarded small officials. Those who have no talent can only have the freedom to dress.

Zhao Zhen was handling official business, and the escort Tixia Tang Long, who was in charge, came to him with the pigeon chamber manager Ding An. When Zhao Zhen saw it, he asked, "Ding An, where is the news?"

"Report to my grandfather, Kouzhou Gexin."

After hearing this, Zhao Zhen quickly asked the Buddha to take the pigeon letter. Zhao Zhen opened it and saw that Shi Xiu and Duan Jingzhu had returned from buying a horse in the north.

In just a few words, I only said that there were tens of thousands of cattle and horses with him, and there were two small tribes who helped drive away the livestock.

After seeing this, Zhao Zhen said happily: "Okay, go and invite Wu Xuejiao."

At a moment, Wu Xuejiao came in, and Zhao Zhen said, "Look at the scholar." Wu Yong said, "My husband, when he built a horse farm in Xiaoping Mountain, it seems that it is no longer applicable. Not only is the time-consuming and laborious horse entry and exit, the place is not big enough. It is better to choose another place to build a horse farm and place herdsmen."

Zhao Zhen said, "I have this intention too. I want to come here to learn from your opinion. Where can I choose this horse farm?"

Wu Yong pondered for a moment and said, "Since ancient times, there have been only three pastures. The first is the foot of the Lushan Mountains to the north of Yiyuan and Zichuan County in Zizhou. The second is the area of ​​Suozhen Wuhe, south of Linzi. It was originally the horse farm of Qi. This place is located south of Qi's capital, also known as Nanmafang. The third place is also in Qingzhou, Qingqiu, Qiancheng County. Qi Jinggong has horses and Qiancheng, and is raised here, called Qiancheng Country. There is an island in Muping, Dengzhou, named Yangma Island, which is where the First Emperor herds horses. These can be used as pastures everywhere."

After hearing this, Liu Huiniang said, "Military advisor, are these two places in Lushan and Linzi too close to Zibo?"

Zhao Zhen asked Guinhua and Mint to open the map, take a closer look, and ask, "What does the military advisor think are the best?"

Wu Yong said: "In my opinion, Qingqiu, Dengzhou Yangma Island in Qiancheng County is good. Yangma Island can be used as breeding places, and Qingqiu, Nanmafang, and Lushan Mountain foothills can all be used as breeding places."

"But, not all war horses are raised. For example, mules, horses, donkeys, cattle, sheep and other livestock can be raised at the foot of Mount Lu and the hills. Nanmafang raises war horses. The original Xiaoping Mountain was only used as a horse farm for my husband. It was selected as the best war horses in the army to be raised here, and it grew into a brave general who could be given to the horse army. For example, the Sharmas to be produced can also be raised there. This is like the Horse Raising Island, surrounded by water, and idle people can't get up easily, so it's best to breed."

After hearing this, Zhao Zhen nodded repeatedly and said to Wu Yong: "The scholars say nothing. Who should handle this matter?"

Wu Yong said: "There is no need to make a big fuss in front of us. When I was in Dengzhou, I had already found out that this place had been abandoned for a long time. Now only a group of pirates settled here, just ask the Daoyuzhai Navy to go to the island to wipe it out. In the other three places, some farmers settled down here, and ordered various prefectures and counties to choose land to move out, leaving only a few farmers to sow grass seeds. Then they moved horses and animals one after another."

Three days later, Zhao Zhen met Shi Xiu and Duan Jingzhu, who were rushing back in Baishi Valley. After seeing the ceremony, Shi Xiu shouted: "Mr. County, Liangshan has changed a lot. If I hadn't heard from the Wei Yangyin brothers from Kouzhou, we would have thought we had gone to the wrong place."

Wu Yong, who was standing beside him, said, "What's this? Now Song Jiang in Qingzhou has been recruited, and the two prefectures and six prefectures are under the jurisdiction of the minister. We all have promotions and rewards. Brother Shi Xiu is now the chief military commander of Yanzhou. He will take office just by waiting for his brother to hand over the horses."

After hearing this, Shi Xiu hurriedly stepped forward to thank him.

Zhao Zhen said: "Brother Shi Xiu is bold and meticulous, and he is brave in fighting. He went to the northern land twice to sell horses. He has made great contributions and should reward him."

As he said that, Duan Jingzhu, who was opposite to him, said, "The new group pastoral department was established on the road. The Duan Jingzhu brothers and Huangfu Duan brothers are both the group pastoral chief supervisors, with four group pastoral judges under them, and are in charge of the Luzhong Ranch."

Duan Jingzhu also thanked Lianlian after hearing this.
