Chapter 172 The New Inspector

"I have met the envoy Cui!" Chen Fei took the initiative to say to a middle-aged man in his forties.

"Yes!" the middle-aged man replied coldly.

This middle-aged man was the successor of Zhang Qiang, the former governor of Shuozhou. His surname was Cui and his name was Fu. Zhang Qiang had been transferred to another place to serve as an official. However, Chen Fei heard that he seemed to be transferred to Chang'an as a secretary and junior supervisor. Although his rank was reduced by one level, he entered the central position, which was a major leap from the local to the central position. For officials of the Tang Dynasty, the central position could be easily promoted. Judging from the resumes of the prime ministers in the middle of the Tang Dynasty, they all started from the central position and then became prime ministers.

Of course, Chen Fei sneered at this situation. Because these officials are all in the central government and have no local governance experience. When it comes to court struggles, they are obviously not good at developing people's livelihood. However, Chen Fei has not been able to solve this problem well for the time being, because Chen Fei's official position is too small to affect the central government. If Chen Fei can have the right one day, he will definitely throw the central government officials out first and let them see the people's livelihood. Otherwise, the officials who have always been in the central government will not be down-to-earth. A group of unearthed officials who have mastered the power of the world will not be blessed to the people!

However, Chen Fei is still paying attention to the new governor Cui Fu now.

"I have met the envoy Cui and specially sent some local products." Chen Fei said.

Chen Fei immediately gave Cui Fu two smoked chickens and two smoked ducks, and some dried phoenix tail mushrooms.

"I have nothing to give to you, but I have nothing to give to you, that is, some local products are given to Cui Jun. This is the local products in our Shuo County, including smoked chicken, smoked duck, and phoenix tail mushrooms. If Cui Jun likes you, then accept some of the feelings sent by these people." Chen Fei said.

Cui Fu finally said: "I heard that the magistrate Chen is very capable. He actually made a lot of chicken raising methods and also made a lot of things called phoenix tail mushrooms? The magistrate Chen County has achieved such a success less than a year after he came to Shuo County. It's really amazing! Not only Shuo County, but also the entire Shuozhou praises Chen County Magistrate Chen County as a good official. And your broiler chicken ducks are sold to the entire Shuozhou, and even the surrounding prefectures and counties can eat your broiler chicken ducks!"

Chen Fei said modestly: "It's okay. Each batch of tens of thousands of chickens and ducks looks a lot, but it's still not many. It's not enough to supply it to nearby prefectures. And our officials must benefit the people in order to be worthy of the trust of the people and the court, so that they can be in vain to serve as an official position!"

"Haha. Since that's the case, you are so noble and noble, how can I not pay attention to it? So..."

Chen Fei's heart skipped a beat. He was either a traitor or a thief for nothing! The new governor actually started to praise Chen Fei from the beginning, which was definitely not a good thing. Chen Fei knew that there was no love for no reason in this world, nor did he hate for no reason. As Chen Fei's boss, there was no need to please Chen Fei so much or flatter Chen Fei so much. But he still flattered him so much, and there were only two reasons. That was to either fool you to work hard for him, or he just liked something about you.

"Since you can't supply broiler chicken and ducks here, and I have countless prefectures and counties in the Tang Dynasty. I also want people from all over the country to afford broiler chicken and duck, so please tell me the recipe for raising chickens and ducks. I'll go to the distance to build a chicken farm!" Cui Fu said.

Chen Fei cursed in his heart that this guy is really shameless. Although he said it was for the people, it was actually for his own interests. Cui Fu liked the recipe for raising chickens and ducks, so he wanted to ask for it. And he also took advantage of the statement that he couldn't supply and wanted to increase investment.

"Don't worry, I won't breed in the western part of the Tang Dynasty. I will send it to Shandong for breeding." Cui Fu said.

Chen Fei was relieved when he heard this. Cui Fu wanted to go to Shandong to raise a breeding area. That made Chen Fei feel much more relieved, at least not here to grab business. However, when he heard Shandong, Chen Fei couldn't help but feel moved. Because Shandong during this period was not the Shandong province of later generations, Shandong in this era was east of the Taihang Mountains. The geographical scope of Shandong in this era was much larger than that of later generations. It not only included Shandong Province in later generations, but also included Hebei, which was a very huge range.

But what the new governor actually said about Shandong is, which means that he should be from that area of ​​Shandong and should have a certain influence in Shandong. According to his surname, he might be the legendary gentry of the Seven Sects and Five Clans. Among the Seven Sects and Five Clans, there are two surnames Cui. Chen Fei didn’t know whether they were Qinghe Cui or Boling Cui. These two families are big families.

The seven sects and five surnames had a very high status in the Tang Dynasty. These gentry had a very high status in the cultural field and were also the largest group of landlords in the Tang Dynasty. They owned more land and land than the emperor's family. Therefore, they were the biggest representatives of the landlord class, and many families often entered the government office to serve as officials. Even in the middle of the Tang Dynasty, a prime minister said that his most regrettable life was that he was unable to marry a woman with five surnames as his wife, which shows the lofty status of the seven sects and five surnames.

"It seems that this new governor is a member of the Shandong gentry, but he was sent here to serve, which is to prevent them from colluding in Shandong. But I have to be careful. The strength of these gentry in the officialdom is very strong. If you are not careful, you will be in trouble." Chen Fei thought.

"Since Envoy Cui has this idea of ​​benefiting the people, I have nothing to agree to! Isn't it just a method? To put it bluntly, it's not worth mentioning." Chen Fei said.

Cui Fu stroked his beard, and then no one knew what he was thinking. Chen Fei looked at Cui Fu's eyes and immediately knew that Cui Fu's recipe for raising chickens and ducks was not that simple. However, Chen Fei didn't know what he was in the Cui family, whether he was a direct or a sideline or even a distant relative. Chen Fei didn't have the information, so he couldn't judge. However, since he was the boss and did not want to come to Shanxi to grab business, there was no need to worry about it. Besides, Chen Fei had many recipes for raising chickens and ducks like this. Chen Fei also had many breeding formulas. If he really needed it, there was no need to hold it in his hands. (To be continued) r655
