Hebei, plain, in the city lord's palace.

Zhou Cheng was sitting on the main seat in the palace of the city lord, while Ju Hu, the governor of Pingyuan, and a group of officials stood tremblingly at the bottom.

Waiting for Zhou Cheng to speak.

This is because Zhou Cheng has been conducting inspections in several major cities recently, hoping to find various problems and improve them in time.

At the same time, for the upcoming Silk Road, master the specialties of various places in advance.

If possible, he would like to transform these specialties from small handicraft workshops into large official workshops.

This improves efficiency and reduces various costs, and the production speed will be much faster.

This time we happened to be inspecting the plains. Accompanied by the prefect Juhu and other civil servants and generals, we were checking the corresponding information.

Juhu, the governor of Pingyuan, was originally the son of Jushou, and was a general recruited from Yuan Shao after Zhou Cheng defeated him. However, Zhou Cheng had no doubts about employing people and still entrusted him with important tasks.

Of course, this is just to win people's hearts and appease the soldiers.

So over the years, Juhu has worked hard and diligently to repay Zhou Cheng.

This time, I didn't understand Zhou Cheng's purpose of coming here. I was a little nervous and secretly wondered if I was at fault.

After Zhou Cheng looked through it, he asked about the development of industry, commerce and agriculture in the city.

Juhu answered honestly, one by one.

Zhou Cheng was very satisfied after hearing this, so accompanied by Ju Hu, he visited some relatively important places in the city.

Then he returned to the city lord's palace, where Ju Hu arranged a banquet for him.

At the banquet, Zhou Cheng sat upright, accompanied by his own entourage, Ju Hu, and a group of civilian officials and generals from the plains.

After drinking for three rounds, Zhou Cheng expressed his intention to use Pingyuan as a pilot project.

Arrangements were made for Juhu to bring some of the specialties in the city, invite well-known craftsmen, and open several official workshops.

And we will strictly manage, shorten the production cycle, reduce costs, and see how far we can achieve it.

Juhu is fully responsible for this matter. If it is feasible, it will be officially promoted to the territories under its jurisdiction.

When Juhu heard this, he was flattered and knew that if this matter was done well, it would be a great achievement.

When the time comes, you'll be promoted or rewarded, that's all!

So the relevant civil servants were called in to report to Zhou Cheng.

Zhou Cheng made several product catalogs and decided to pilot this plan first!

Juhu took the order after Zhou Cheng left the plain on another day.

Immediately recruit the corresponding responsible personnel, and pair them with right-hand assistants to mobilize the city's resources to support.

Strive to do this matter steadily and securely.

As a result, news spread about the recruitment of craftsmen in corresponding industries in Pingyuan City.

Hearing that the craftsmen in the surrounding areas were being treated well, each and every one of them had the idea of ​​​​changing jobs.

After a few days, several famous craftsmen were initially recruited.

After listening to the opinions of these craftsmen, Juhu began to build civil engineering and workshops.

And purchase the corresponding raw materials in advance, and then wait for the workshop to be completed before starting work.

Jiangdong, Wujun.

Sun Cezheng was discussing with Zhou Yu.

He was troubled by the fact that Zhou Cheng's power was getting bigger and stronger.

In terms of military strength and economy, the pressure on Jiangdong is even greater.

I didn't know what to do next, so I invited Zhou Yu to listen to his opinion.

Zhou Yu did some analysis for Sun Ce and felt that it was unlikely that Zhou Cheng would go south in the short term.

Nowadays, there are many wastes waiting to be revitalized in various places, and Zhou Cheng must also hope to have a certain buffer time to develop the economy and revitalize agriculture.

Taking this opportunity, it is better to send troops to attack the Shanyue tribes such as Pan Lin, Peng Qi and others.

Once successful, you will gain territory, troops, money and food.

When the battle with Zhou Cheng becomes inevitable, he will have a lot more chips in hand.

They were discussing the next attack on the various Shanyue ethnic groups within the territory.

An envoy came to report that Lu Su had prepared enough food and grass in advance, and there was even more.

Sun Ce was determined, and he felt very confident about this expedition against Shanyue.

Zhou Yu said that since the Lujiang area had sufficient military supplies, Zhou Taihan and Zhuge Jin and others were stationed there.

The problem won't be big in the short term, but now we can spare manpower to pacify Shanyue!

The Lujiang area can be handed over to Lu Su's subordinate officials to manage subsequent grain collection matters.

Lu Su can be recalled to Jiangdong to be responsible for the follow-up food collection during the conquest of Shanyue.

Sun Ce was very happy and agreed readily, deciding to do as Zhou Yu said.

So Sun Ce appointed Zhou Yu as the commander-in-chief of the expedition against Shanyue and granted him authority.

He led Han Dang, Cheng Pu, Zhu Zhi, Sun Jing, Lu Fan and others, mobilized elite soldiers and generals from various places, and set out on a selected day.

In addition, Lu Su was fully responsible for the preparation and mobilization of food and fodder for the conquest army, and ensured the logistics of the conquest army. _Please download the novel without underlining
