The weather is gradually getting colder, and autumn is almost here again.
This is the third autumn that Chen Ke has spent here.
Chen Ke was sitting under the tree, bored, trying to figure out how to complete the game.
He was only in his twenties when he came here three years ago, and now he is almost twenty-six.
Time passed quickly.
At this time, the boy on the side walked over in a hurry, with a little eagerness on his face.
When he came to Chen Ke's side, he said: "I am reporting to the Governor, and I am asking Guan Zhuo to see you."
Poor management?
Chen Ke raised his eyebrows slightly, looked at the boy beside him and said, "Let him come in."
When the boy left in a hurry, Chen Ke touched his chin with a little curiosity in his heart.
"Why did Guan Zhuo come to my place at this time? Did he encounter some difficulty?"
"But it's settled. Let's talk to him about making salt."
A moment later, with the sound of footsteps, Guan Zhuo's figure appeared in the courtyard of the Governor's Mansion.
After meeting Chen Ke, he immediately saluted: "I have met the governor."
Chen Ke waved his hand: "Okay, no need to be polite, get up."
"You came today, but what's the matter?"
Guan Zhuo looked at Chen Ke and said, "Governor, I have written down all my plans in this memorial. I hope the Governor can take the time to read it."
Chen Ke looked at the thick memorial book and raised his eyebrows slightly.
It seems that I have found the right person.
This guy looks more lively than Li Si? In just two days, so many plans have been written?
He put the things aside casually, looked at Guan Zhuo and said, "Please tell me your specific plan first."
"Let me listen."
After Guan Zhuo sorted out his thoughts, he lowered his head to think, then raised his head and Chen Ke said: "To the Governor, Mr. Fusu told me about "salt production" two days ago. "
"After thinking about it, I realized that if we could produce the "snowflake salt" that the governor called, it would definitely be a big deal. "
"Peng Laizhou can also take this opportunity to accumulate a lot of money."
"My thinking is that although the Municipal Property Department is an agency in charge of "goods" and "money," it is still an agency of the imperial court. "
"So everything we do must be beneficial and convenient for the people."
"It cannot be done for the purpose of making money."
Guan Zhuo looked serious. Although his ancestor Guan Zhong was very good at "business", in fact, his best thing was not business management.
On the contrary, benefiting and providing convenience to the people is more suitable for him.
And this also matches up with some of Chen Ke's plans.
Of course, it was precisely because of this that Chen Ke made Guan Zhuo the commander-in-chief of the City's Property Department.
He glanced at Guan Zhu and said, "Continue."
“How are you going to facilitate people?”
Guan Zhuo continued: "First of all, farm tools played a very important role in this period, but ordinary people did not have the strength to make many farm tools."
“This is a policy ‘leasing’ that the Governor has implemented before. "
"And I feel that the second function of the Municipal Property Department is "balance." "
"Balance the price of goods in Penglaizhou so that the price of goods in Penglaizhou cannot exceed a certain level and cannot fall below a certain level."
"In a year of great disaster, cheap food is sold. When someone tries to hoard exotic goods for their own benefit, what we should do is to stabilize prices."
When Guan Zhuo said this, he secretly glanced at Chen Ke's reaction. When he saw that Chen Ke had no reaction, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief and continued to speak.
"And the third function that Xianguan thought of was actually "official camp". "
"Customize some items as "official business", and no one except the "official government" and "imperial court" can sell such items. "
"For the time being, Xianguan can only think of two things, 'salt and iron'. As for the others, Xianguan feels that other things will definitely appear as time goes by. "
He hesitated for a moment, and finally said what was in his mind: "Actually, according to the official's opinion, the matter of the "Inn" should actually be within the jurisdiction of the "Municipal Property Department". "
"But it is too important at this time, and I dare not say it lightly."
Chen Ke glanced at Guan Zhuo with a half-smile, and didn't say anything. He just scattered the things in his hands to the pond in the courtyard.
"Okay, don't think so much."
"The things you have considered are no longer a problem for the time being."
"As for the inn, I have other ideas in mind, so you don't need to think about it."
Chen Ke looked in the distance and suddenly said: "Today's Municipal Property Department seems to have few functions, but in fact it has many functions and is very large."
"I hope you can relax your mind and don't put your mind too high."
He turned back, looked at Guan Zhuo and said, "Sometimes, no one will tolerate such a big thing being controlled by others."
"So many years from now, possibly even while you are still here, the Municipal Property Department will be broken up."
Chen Ke seemed to see something, and seemed to say casually: "If the Qi'er is too high now, it will be troublesome if it can't be slowed down later. "
He squinted his eyes and stopped talking.
Guan Zhuo stood behind Chen Ke, his head lowered and silent.

Thirty miles outside Peng Laizhou
Wang Ben and Li Xin led the army and were about to arrive at Penglai Continent.
All the dust was dusted off by them, leaving only a high-spirited look.
Wang Ben rode his horse, and the horse under him immediately started galloping. He laughed into the wind and said: "Brother Li, let's go first into the city!"
"I'll take you to meet our immediate boss, Governor Chen."
Li Xin sat aside, looking lazy and decadent, like a lonely mushroom who was not exposed to the sun all day long.
His legs just clamped hard, and then the horse underneath him started to gallop quickly.
No matter how decadent he becomes, his basic skills have not fallen behind.
As long as Li Xin can find the "general heart" that was lost somewhere, he can still be one of the famous generals in the world.
.............
At this time, at the entrance of Penglaizhou, a car drove slowly past, and finally entered the prefecture city of Penglaizhou, "Linzi County".
.........
Xianyang City
Ying Zheng sat in front of the chessboard as if someone were sitting across from him.
He dropped a beat and then burst into laughter.
"I only have this one piece, but who says that the chess piece itself can't continue to move?"
Ying Zheng placed another chess piece in a position, and then said with emotion: "The descendants of Guan Zhong in the past have become officials of our Qin Dynasty."
"It can be regarded as another kind of fortune."
He said with slight emotion: "The chess game has been gradually arranged, and the chess pieces have gradually entered the chess game."
"The world is like chess..."
"Who will win in the end?"
