His footsteps pulsated as he gradually walked down the tower. On the other side, the person who received Li Chengdao's order also began to move quickly. Now, several hours had passed.
Under the huge ship, they went on a long voyage to fish. Naturally, the harvest was also very good.
Soon, the arranged personnel began to prepare. At the same time, a batch of sea salt was transported to various places by another group of people. These places were undoubtedly the places of the various powerful and powerful families.
In this era of powerful political rule, the first thing Li Chengdao needed to do was to knock on the door of these people.
Of course, there was a certain risk in doing so. After all, salt and iron were official profits. This was a national policy that had never been shaken since the establishment of Emperor Wu of the Western Han Dynasty. Even if the dynasty changed, this policy was still firmly implemented.
If it was in another era, Li Chengdao's actions would be equivalent to courting death.
But this was the Tang Dynasty, and there was only a certain degree of risk involved. There was no need to consider these risks. After all, even if he had set foot in the Great Tang, the risk was far greater than this, so there was naturally no need to consider these things.
Now, it was up to these people to see if they would take the bait.
Of course, he did not go through all this trouble just for the refugees. Or rather, those people were just a bait. More importantly, Li Chengdao needed to open a gap, a gap that would allow him to move around the Great Tang for a long time.
It might not seem like much now, but as time passed, America would need the support of the Great Tang to develop and sell its goods. The Great Tang would need to sell goods and replenish manpower, so there was no harm in making preparations in advance.
This could be considered as a test. If he succeeded, there was still a chance of success. However, if he failed, he would have to think of other ways as soon as possible. After all, the next time he came, it would not be so fast. If he did not prepare early, it would probably be too late.
As the other side started to move, Li Chengdao's figure also moved again. This time, he brought Feng Li and the others directly to the government office. Similarly, he had many more things in his hands.
The matter of the despotic would need to be resolved in the future. Now that he wanted to carry out his plan, there was still one more official he needed to go through, and that was the administrative officer in Mingzhou.
Even if their rights were actually suppressed, these people still had a lot of rights. They could not do anything, but they were more than enough to lose. In order to avoid accidents, Li Chengdao naturally had to pass this pass.
However, before he left, Li Chengdao had also asked the surrounding guards to inquire about the various classes in the city in order to obtain a general understanding of this provincial governor. After this understanding, the result was extremely satisfactory. Although from the other party's actions, he had already roughly understood who the other party was, and after understanding it, he was even more certain.
This Mingzhou Provincial Governor was basically a normal bureaucrat. He also had all the shortcomings of bureaucrats. He loved money and was afraid of trouble. Although he was not greedy, he was not much better. To the country, he was basically a parasite. However, to Li Chengdao, this was naturally a good thing.
This meant that his plan would be easier to achieve.
In fact, that was indeed the case. Li Chengdao and his group had obtained what he wanted with just a few Kobold's Gold and a reason that did not seem to be a reason.
His reason was that as a large clan from the east of the country, he needed a group of people to follow him back from Nanyang to transport goods. These refugees were just right. They did not need a price or wages, and they completely met his requirements. Therefore, he needed to select a group of people and hoped to obtain the approval of the provincial governor.
Such a reason was not flawless. The so-called big family in the east of the country had just randomly found a fake identity. If someone investigated, they would basically be accurate. However, it was obvious that this provincial governor did not have the intention. They were just a few commoners. He did not care at all. He was completely attracted by the yellow little cuteness and immediately agreed.
Of course, this promise was not absolute. This provincial governor was not stupid to a certain extent. He only agreed to let him choose a few hundred people. Any more was not allowed. He would even send people to follow him.
After all, a few hundred people were fine, but if it was a few thousand people, he knew the severity of the situation, especially now that the war had just ended.
Li Chengdao naturally did not say anything about this. Instead, he directly agreed. To him, this was just an entry point. As for the rest, he had a way. There was no need to worry at all.
Next, the operation was naturally carried out in an open and aboveboard manner. First, the people on the island docked one after another. A large number of fish were transported up. Huge iron pots were opened and bowls of fish soup were boiled. To prevent others from discovering anything, Li Chengdao directly carried out the operation in the name of the state capital.
Although it seemed like he was losing out and the people's hearts were all going to that damned guy, in fact, this would allow Li Chengdao to solve many problems in a short period of time. More importantly, his goal was not to engrave these people's hearts, but these people. As long as it could be carried out, these people would be his. He did not care if it was a problem with the people's hearts, so he did not care even more.
Under such circumstances, the provincial governor was even more satisfied. Although he didn't understand what Li Chengdao was planning to do, since he had obtained Huang Chengcheng's cuteness and received a wave of popular support, this was definitely a huge pie. It could even be added to his political achievements.
Naturally, he didn't pay much attention to Li Chengdao's actions, especially when Li Chengdao had indeed only chosen four or five hundred people. He was even more relieved. He had thought that Li Chengdao would choose eight or nine hundred people, and he had been prepared to turn a blind eye. However, Li Chengdao had actually chosen four or five hundred people. This was naturally not a problem. The population of some large families 'tenants was almost the same.
However, he obviously did not realize that Li Chengdao's selection of people was actually very regular. Usually, he only selected one person in a village to ensure that these four to five hundred people would radiate to the entire refugee population. This might not seem like much, but in fact, the nature was completely different from four to five hundred people. It was as if he had spread to the entire group of tens of thousands of refugees.
