Time passed. In the blink of an eye, it was November.
The weather was getting colder.
In Fu Shan County, farming had already stopped. After all, it was winter, and it was no longer suitable for farming. Many of the commoners had already started to rest.
Only in Fushan County, many of the people did not rest. There was no other reason. There were some factories in Fushan County now. These were newly built. Some of the people could work in the factories.
These factories involved clothing factories, food factories, and even fish processing factories.
These were all newly built.
All the factories were planned by Du Qi.
Du Qi stayed in Fushan County. He could not let Fushan County continue to be a farming town. There had to be changes. Hence, Du Qi's first step was to build factories and start the most primitive manufacturing process.
Other than that, there were also large-scale factories for paper, farming tools, and many other industries.
This was done so that more people could earn money.
Let the people live a good life.
When the people had extra money in their hands, they would gradually choose to spend money. Hence, in the end, the people's spending would drive the economic development.
This was one of the changes that Du Qi made to Fushan County.
However, Du Qi did not do it personally.
Meng Jiuyou was in charge of everything. After all, Meng Jiuyou was the county magistrate of Fushan County.
On this day, at Du Qi's residence.
Because the weather was cold, especially today, it was drizzling.
Du Qi also felt a little cold, so he simply ordered the accompanying chefs to prepare a hotpot for them to eat. Because Luo Binwang, Liu Che, Mordor, Yan Three, and the others had gone to the frontlines, Du Qi was alone now.
However, Du Qi felt that it was a weapon.
It was too boring to eat alone.
Hotpot required two people to eat together. That was the only way to satisfy one's cravings.
Du Qi had arranged for an attendant to inform Meng Jiuyou to come. Unexpectedly, not long after the attendant left, he returned in a blink of an eye. Behind the servant was Meng Jiuyou.
The servant stood still and said, "Young master, County Magistrate Meng wishes to see you."
Du Qi waved his hand and said, "Come, Meng Jiuyou, sit down. Let's talk while we eat."
Meng Jiu You looked at the Mandarin Duck pot with a puzzled expression, "Young Master, how do we eat this?"
Right now, Great Qin didn't have hotpot.
Du Qi was certain that the founding emperor of the Great Qin Dynasty was a transmigrator. The problem was that although he had transmigrated here, in reality, many of his living habits had not changed.
In Great Qin, there were chili peppers, potatoes, corn, and tomatoes, but none of them had survived.
It would be a waste to not make hot pot with chili.
Du Qi said with a smile, "The way to eat is very simple. For example, duck intestines are not easy to get. After boiling it in the pot and dipping it in the condiments, it was ready to eat. The beef, streaky pork, and other meats and vegetables could be boiled. Then, they could be dipped in the dipping sauce and eaten. The weather is a little cold now, so it's perfect for hotpot. "
Meng Jiuyou sat down and tried a piece of beef.
The beef was dipped in sweet potato powder and egg white. After boiling it in the water and dipping it in the dipping sauce, he put it in his mouth. When he ate it, his mouth was watering, and his whole body felt comfortable.
Meng Jiuyou felt a sense of enjoyment on the tip of his tongue.
Comfortable!
It was simply too comfortable!
Meng Jiuyou tried the clear soup and the red pot, but he quickly shook his head because he wasn't used to the red pot and couldn't stand the spiciness.
However, the taste was still not bad.
Meng Jiuyou praised, "Young Master, you're really amazing. On this cold November day, eating hotpot makes my whole body feel warm. It's so comfortable, so comfortable. "
Du Qi smiled and said, "Hotpot is just the beginning. It's just a type of food."
"Come, let's drink!"
Du Qi picked up the wine.
Now, the wine was being warmed with hot water. Together with the hot wine, one's whole body felt warm.
It was exceptionally comfortable.
In fact, there was a winery in Fushan County now. After Du Qi told Meng Jiuyou about the new winery manufacturing process, he let Meng Jiuyou make the arrangements.
In the hundred years since the founding of Great Qin, there had been wineries, but it was very simple.
Du Qi's arrival changed everything.
Therefore, there were many factories in Fushan County now. That was why there was such a big reform and so many people were attracted to work there.
However, many of the factories were actually very primitive.
They all started from scratch.
Naturally, they were not very good.
Du Qi was not in a hurry. He had plenty of patience, and everything could be done slowly.
Meng Jiuyou also picked up the wine cup and toasted Du Qi. Then, he drank a cup of wine.
The two of them ate hotpot and drank wine, and it was very comfortable.
After three rounds of wine and five rounds of dishes.
At this time, Meng Jiuyou was almost done eating.
After all, other than drinking wine, he was eating meat in big mouthfuls. After all, it was rare to have such a feast. He wiped his mouth and said, "Young Master, I'm here today because I received news about Yongye County. Luo Binwang is in charge of the reform in Yongye County. He has already sent back news. "
Du Qi asked, "How's the situation?"
Meng Jiuyou replied, "Young Master, everything is going well for now. Mordor has made adjustments to the military. He has already reorganized all the troops. In terms of government affairs, Luo Binwang has already helped Zeng Cheng to take over all the land in Yongye County. Then, they will distribute the land to the people for farming. "
After a pause, Meng Jiuyou continued, "Apart from that, the government is also cleaning up the black sheep. In short, many reforms have been carried out, and Yongye County is completely under control now. "
Du Qi nodded when he heard that.
In fact, Du Qi was not surprised at all.
He gave Mordor thousands of elites, including Luo Binwang, Liu Che, and Yan Three. If so many people could not take down a small Yongye County or even succeed in the reform, it would be too embarrassing.
Du Qi said, "Apart from that, is there any other news?"
Meng Jiuyou said, "Apart from that, Luo Binwang is asking for your permission. He is preparing to send more troops to Pan Du County. Yongye County is stable, and it's time to take down Pan Du County. "
Du Qi said, "You also agree to send troops?"
Meng Jiuyou said, "Young Master, you have Fushan County and Yongye County under your control now. But in reality, these two counties are not enough to satisfy you. So, it's natural to take down Pan Du County. Most importantly, Pan Du County is the governing area of Songyang County. After we take down Pan Du County, we can start to control the entire Songyang County. This is my consideration. "
Du Qi said, "That's true."
Meng Jiuyou smiled. He talked about some things in Fushan County before he got up and left.
I'm already full.
I've already reported this matter.
So, Meng Jiuyou left immediately.
Du Qi continued to eat alone. He ate very slowly and leisurely. After they finished eating, Du Qi specially wrote a letter and arranged for it to be sent to Luo Binwang as soon as possible. He agreed to send troops.
After Du Qi asked someone to send the letter, Du Qi began to arrange for the people in the residence to pack up. Next, he was already preparing to move to Yongye County.
The reason was simple. Luo Binwang and the others were going to continue the campaign.
He had to stabilize the situation at the rear.
This was so that there would not be any trouble at the rear.
