When Mr. Lu came, Ouyang Bian really thought he was here to find his own son. After all, he was a student of Lao Wang, so he was embarrassed to come to find him, and he was also embarrassed to do so.

When Ouyang Xiu heard the arrival of his old friend, he ran to entertain him with great enthusiasm, but after a while he came to Ouyang Bian angrily.

Ouyang Bian was a little surprised: "What's wrong with this? Is there a quarrel?"

The old men have their own stubbornness, and it is very common for quarrels.

Ouyang Xiu hummed angrily: "He came to you under the banner of looking at me, hum!"

Ouyang Bian said in surprise: "What did he ask me for?"

Ouyang Xiu snorted arrogantly and said, "I don't know, you can ask yourself."

Ouyang Bian was so amused that he could only comfort his father first: "He will be in Yingzhou from now on, and he will definitely come to you often. I guess there is really something important to come in to find me. You have been old friends for many years, and it is your friends who will tell you honestly. If you are hypocritical, you won't tell you, you will definitely be perfunctory and then look for me."

Hearing Ouyang Bian say this, Ouyang Xiu's face eased, but he still said arrogantly: "You go quickly, don't be rude."

Ouyang Bian smiled and nodded: "Okay, I'll secretly bring you half a bowl of sugar water tonight."

Ouyang Xiuxiu said happily: "I want Huaishan sweet soup."

Ouyang Bian nodded with a smile: "I will add a little more white fungus to you."

Ouyang Xiu was happy: "That relationship is good."

Ouyang Xiu was a little diabetic and the doctor refused to let the sweet ones eat. Mrs. Xue was very nervous. Ouyang Xiu wanted to eat them every day. After Ouyang Bian came back, he occasionally gave them some secretly. In fact, there was not much sugar in it, so I just wanted to comfort me.

Lu Gongzhe was a little restless in the hall. When he saw Ouyang Bian coming in, he felt a little embarrassed.

Ouyang Bian is not an embarrassing person, so he quickly said enthusiastically: "Uncle Shi is here, have you eaten? I must have a few drinks at home tonight. My father has been talking about it for a long time."

Ouyang Bian's family matter made Lu Gongzhu calm down immediately.

Ouyang Bian is still the same Ouyang Bian.

Mr. Lu smiled and said, "Okay, then I'm going to bother you. How long will Ji Mo stay when he comes back this time?"

Ouyang Bian smiled and said, "If it's nothing, just stay here, don't worry."

Mr. Lu smiled and said, "Okay, spend more time with your father, your father often talks about you. Every time he writes to us old guys, he will talk about you without a few words, so that we old guys are very familiar with your affairs, haha."

Ouyang Bian laughed: "The governor of Yingzhou often comes to govern the capable ministers of Shi. It is a great thing for the uncle to come this time, and the future prospects are promising."

Mr. Lu smiled bitterly and said, "Oh, it's not what I want, but since I come, I'll be at ease. When I come, I think about doing something for the people here, but now I don't know where to start!"

Mr. Lu sighed.

Ouyang Bian laughed secretly, saying that he was asking for help from him.

Mr. Lu was probably still somewhat speculating about the intention of coming this time.

Yingzhou is the midway station leading to the southeast coast and the Jianghuai grain production area. It is a major road for officials and merchants to travel to and from the capital, a key transportation link between the north and south, and an important town in the Huaihe River Basin.

Bianjing is located in the Central Plains, and its land transportation is famous for its well-connected connections. Especially in the Northern Song Dynasty, it can be regarded as the center of land transportation in the country.

Yingzhou and Chenzhou are the main transportation routes leading to Bianjing from the middle reaches of the Huai River.

Such a place should have been a wealthy place, but I am afraid of comparing everything.

Of course, Yingzhou is not considered poor now, but compared with the capital, Yingzhou is far inferior to that of the capital, and compared with the prefectures in the south of the Yangtze River, Yingzhou is even more overshadowed.

Yingzhou has an extraordinary status today. Zhao Xiang of Shang was once named King Ying, and Yingzhou is known as the land of Feilong. According to the Tang and Song dynasties, some states with special status should be promoted to prefectures.

Yingzhou is the place where Long Fei is now, so of course it should also inherit the old system. However, Yingzhou's economy is far behind other states, so it is a shame to increase it.

If Lu Gong wanted to achieve some results, the best thing was to upgrade Yingzhou to a prefecture, but now the economy is not good, so it is not easy for him to mention it.

It would be fine if Ouyang Bian could not come to Yingzhou, but now that Ouyang Bian has come, he has not seized this opportunity, so he might as well stop being an official.

It’s not okay to be too shameless to be an official.

Ouyang Bian smiled and said, "Yingzhou is a wealthy state, and the people's lives are also very good, so there is no need to make any trouble. It is good to govern without doing anything. It is a great thing for the people to live and work in peace and contentment."

Ouyang Bian pretended not to understand.

Mr. Lu gritted his teeth secretly, this kid would not show off the rabbit or the eagle.

"Ji Mo, I am the magistrate of Yingzhou. Although I was demoted, I really want to do something. Can Ji Mo help me?"

Ouyang Bian looked at Lu Gong in surprise. Lu Gong said that his father was Lu Yijian. Lu Gong said that he was the top second generation when he was young. He was arrogant and arrogant and light. Now he could bow his head and ask for help from his junior, so he could not refuse.

"I naturally want to support Uncle Shi's heart. Uncle Shi, what do you want me to do?"

Ouyang Bian said.

When Lu Gongzhu saw Ouyang Bian say this, he couldn't help but smile: "Yingzhou is located on a key road, which is a key road connecting the capital and the Huaihe River. If it's just for people to pass by, it would be a pity.

It is better to form an economic hub here, which not only facilitates passers-by, but also leaves some benefits to the people of Yingzhou.

Ji Mo, I would like to ask you to let Xihucheng Group build a West Lake City here. Look, Yingzhou also has West Lake, and Xihucheng and Yingzhou are more suitable!"

Ouyang Bian almost burst into laughter. Is this old guy okay?

But what he said was right. A place like Yingzhou can indeed build a West Lake City. With West Lake City, Yingzhou is not just a passerby, but a place where you can settle down.

Now that West Lake City has developed, it is no longer just a shopping mall, but a complex.

In Yingzhou, we can use the well-connected water system to form a cargo distribution center that connects the north and the south.

With West Lake City as the core, a large warehouse is formed to provide services to merchants from south to north. Just one service function is enough to make Yingzhou the economic core of the two routes of Huainan.

In this way, Yingzhou can form a large city with siphon ability between Kaifeng and Yangzhou, rather than being sucked by both Bianjing and Yangzhou.

Lu Gongzhu still has vision.

However, if he wants to help Mr. Lu, he still has to consider Wang Anshi's feelings.

Lu Gongzhu was driven out by Wang Anshi. As Wang Anshi's disciple, he went to help Lu Gongzhu achieve political achievements. What is he trying to do?

Ouyang Bian is not a naughty person like Su Shi.
