035
Outside Ji County of Youzhou, Xi Zhicai was waiting with Youzhou officials.
As Lu Qing shone brilliantly in the Yellow Turban Rebellion, many scholars acknowledged Lu Qing and Youzhou.
Therefore, there were many new blood in Youzhou now. Of course, there were also students who had spent a lot of effort to recruit from Yingchuan Academy.
Although they had not left their names in history, it did not mean that they were lacking in knowledge. At the very least, they would have no problem being a county magistrate or a high-ranking official in a county city.
"This subordinate Xi Zhicai greets my lord.”
Xi Zhicai bowed to Lu Qing with reverence in his eyes. He had chosen to be loyal to Lu Qing because he treated the people of Youzhou well.
It was because he realized that Youzhou Province was like a land of hidden dragons after coming to Youzhou Province.
Paper factories, printing factories, textile factories, steel factories, and many other factories built with modern technology could be said to be an eye-opener for actors.
However, they could be mass-produced in Youzhou Province.
"Hahaha, Yuan Ruo, long time no see.”
Guo Jia jumped out from behind Lu Qing and said happily as he looked at Xi Zhi in front of him. The two of them had been best friends at Yingchuan Academy, so they were naturally happy to meet again after a long time.
After all, it had been several months since he had followed Lu Qing to battle.
"Fengxiao, don't jump out in front of the Lord.”
Xi Zhicai said in a deep voice.
Guo Jia pursed her lips.
"Yuan Ruo, you're always like this, pretending to be serious.”
Lu Qing waved his hand nonchalantly. That was how the two of them were. Although Guo Jia was a little casual, he actually respected Lu Qing very much. Lu Qing knew this.
A group of people escorted Lu Qing into the city. They chose to walk all the way back. After all, it had been almost half a year since they left Youzhou. Lu Qing also wanted to see how Ji County had become.
On the way here, the cities in Youzhou Province had undergone great changes. Firstly, the dilapidated cities had been repaired. Closely after that, the commoners had jobs and ambitions. Everybody was smiling.
Their family did farm, but just farming was actually very difficult in ancient times. As long as there was an accident, the family would starve.
Therefore, after Lu Qing provided all kinds of jobs, the lives of the commoners could be said to be much better.
In addition to Lu Qing's promotion of commerce, many merchants transported materials from all over the world to Youzhou to sell.
When the commoners had spare money, they would naturally buy and sell things, such as new clothes, meat, and so on.
Therefore, all the merchants in the world began to find that business in Youzhou seemed to be very good. It was because the people in Youzhou seemed to be really rich.
Under this virtuous cycle, Youzhou would be able to make a fortune just by collecting various taxes.
The other places in Youzhou were like this, not to mention Ji County.
The moment they entered Ji County, they saw clean and tidy streets.
"My lord, according to your instructions, we have divided the roads in Youzhou into lanes and sidewalks.”
"At the same time, public toilets and so on have been built. This is indeed a great convenience for transportation and environmental hygiene.”
Xi Zhicai said, looking at Lu Qing with even more admiration.
Guo Jia was also shocked. Although he often communicated with the opera prodigy in the letter, it was a different matter to see it with his own eyes.
Lu Qing also nodded in satisfaction. Although it was incomparable to the modern era, the antique buildings on both sides made it seem like they had returned to a modern ancient town.
"Yuan Ruo has done well. With you as the Serenity Plains Don't Drive, I will have a much easier time.”
Lu Qing said. He only needed to put forward his own ideas, and Xi Zhicai would arrange for someone to do it.
It could be said that even though Lu Qing was not in Youzhou Province for half a year, Youzhou Province had not slowed down its development at all.
At the same time, Diao Chan, who was in the carriage behind Lu Qing, was secretly looking at the street outside.
"Is this Youzhou Province? Lord Marquis was lying. How could this be a bitterly cold place?”
Diao Chan thought to herself. Although the buildings here were not as luxurious as those in Luo Yang, the clean and tidy streets and the smiling citizens were all things that Luo Yang could not see.
Although Luoyang was the capital, there were too many aristocratic families there. The ordinary people were still living in the heat of the moment.
On the way here, Youzhou Province was like a paradise!
At the same time, the citizens of Youzhou also noticed Lu Qing. Some of them who were lucky enough to see Lu Qing exclaimed.
"Yes, it's the Provincial Governor!"
As soon as he said this, the entire street instantly fell silent.
Then, a shocking scene happened. Countless people instantly knelt on the ground and shouted loudly.
"Greetings, Provincial Governor!"
Their actions and expressions were all sincere. Even the expressions of the commoners when they looked at Lu Qing were extremely fanatical.
Some of the elderly were even in tears because they thought of their tragic lives in the past.
Youzhou was a cold and bitter land, and it was often plundered by foreign races. The people here had always cried the most.
It was common for people to exchange their sons for food. However, after Lu Qing became the governor of Youzhou, all of this changed.
All kinds of factories had sprung up all over Youzhou. At the same time, Lu Qing's work-for-relief policy had enabled countless people to find jobs.
The bountiful rewards made the lives of every family more than ten times better!
In the past, they could not eat meat once a year, but now, their lives even supported them to eat meat every day.
It should be known that Lu Qing developed Youzhou Province according to his modern target.
After all, he was a modern person. Even during the Three Kingdoms period, he would return to the modern world.
After all, he had a home and business in the modern world, and that was his greatest pillar of support.
Because he often came back, Lu Qing didn't forget that he was a modern person. Therefore, he developed Youzhou Province according to the modern scale subconsciously.
Therefore, wasn't it the most basic to let the people have three meals a day, meat for every meal, and ample food and clothing?
Little did they know that Lu Qing's so-called most basic idea was something that the common people of Youzhou dared not even dream of.
Therefore, Lu Qing was like a god in Youzhou.
