(PS: 500 monthly ticket updates, thank you for your support!!!)

On October 12, the first year of Gaia, Ouyang Shuo brought his personal guards to Beihai County. Since its establishment, it has been more than half a year. This is Ouyang Shuo’s first time.

The light boat winds along the canyon. Looking up, the rock walls on both sides are steep, with nothing else except moss, and it is dead and dull. A skyline is exposed above the cliff, and the blue sky is vaguely visible.

The turbulent river beating the rock walls, making a rustling sound, splashing water.

Suddenly, a erect skyline suddenly lies in front of you. A light boat passed through the skyline, and the eyes suddenly became clear, the sun was shining, the sky was high and the earth was wide. The coastline in the distance was clearly visible, and the rumbling sounds of waves came, and a pair of seabirds flew past the sky, bringing vitality.

The battle between narrowness and openness, life and death is so abrupt and harmonious, which makes Ouyang Shuo sigh at the power and magical craftsmanship of nature.

At the river and by the sea, a majestic city stands between heaven and earth, suppressing all directions.

Beihai County Magistrate Gu Xiuwen and Beihai Fleet Commander Pei Donglai, led a group of civil and military officials, waited early at the dock to welcome Ouyang Shuo's arrival.

The light boat stopped slowly, and Ouyang Shuo walked off the boat accompanied by his personal guards.

"Greetings to the Lord!" The officials bowed and bowed.

Ouyang Shuo nodded and said, "You are all ministers of the humerus. You can make a contribution to Beihai County being of such a scale. This time, I came here, not to show my achievements, but all of them will be dispersed!"

"Here!" The officials did not dare to neglect and surrendered one after another, leaving only Gu Xiuwen and Pei Donglai.

Ouyang Shuo was not in a hurry to enter the city, and said to Gu Pei and the others with a smile: "How is it? Let's have a walk with me!"

In fact, Gu Xiuwen and Pei Donglai had only a slight understanding of Ouyang Shuo's purpose.

Last night, the two received an urgent message from their secretary Lang Bainanpu, saying that Junhou would come to Beihai County tomorrow morning, but the specific matters were not explained in the urgent case.

The two of them had no objection to Ouyang Shuo’s proposal and said in unison: “Here!”

The three of them walked along the river bank towards the seaside, and their guards followed from afar.

As Ouyang Shuo walked, he looked at Gu Xiuwen and asked, "Xuwen, how is Beihai County's current situation?"

Since capturing five territories including Tianfeng County, Ouyang Shuo has canceled the arrangement of the affiliated territorial lords to report their work every month, and instead changed to report their work every six months.

Therefore, Ouyang Shuo had not seen himself as a capable general for a while.

Gu Xiuwen was stunned and bowed again: "Report to the Lord..."

"Hey," Ouyang Shuo waved his hand, "This is not the court, so there is no need to be so restricted in the cultivation of literature." The reason why Ouyang Shuo did not rush to the county government is that he did not want to be too serious.

Gu Xiuwen nodded and began to pick key issues and report to Ouyang Shuo one by one.

At the Military and Political Meeting last month, Ouyang Shuo proposed a plan for the major industrial development. After the meeting, the secretary's office organized Ouyang Shuo's speech into official documents and sent it to various affiliated territories.

The subordinate territorial officials understood and began to think about the unique industrial planning of the territory.

In this regard, Beihai County is at a disadvantage. As the saying goes, it is almost difficult for Beihai County to develop other industries except for fishery and salt, and its industrial institutions are very single.

Needless to say, the salt industry has reached a bottleneck due to its beach area.

The fishery is also not optimistic. Fishermen go out to sea to fish for fishing not only fear of harsh climates, but also worry about encountering pirates and are extremely uneasy and can only fish in the cruise waters of the North Sea Fleet.

It is expected that it will take another half a month before Beihai County will be promoted to a third-level county town. However, Lushui County has come from behind and has been successfully promoted to a third-level county town last week.

Although there were factors of mountain barbarian migration, Gu Xiuwen was still dissatisfied. As the first affiliated territory of Shanhai Territory, Gu Xiuwen has always regarded Beihai County as a benchmark for affiliated territory.

In order to catch up with Lushui County, Gu Xiuwen recently discussed with Pei Donglai to launch a military campaign to wipe out pirates as soon as possible to increase the population of Beihai County and promote it as soon as possible; it is also to clear obstacles for fishermen to go out to sea to catch fish and clear obstacles.

Pei Donglai had this idea long ago, and the two hit it off.

Somehow, after hitting a wall one after another, the Black Shark Pirates retreated. For a long time, no reconnaissance ships have been sent to monitor the movements in Beihai County.

There was a lot of trouble. Gu Xiuwen and Pei Donglai invited Ouyang Shuo together, hoping to approve the military operations of the North Sea Fleet as soon as possible.

Hearing that the two of them went around and returned to the matter of extermination of pirates, Ouyang Shuo shook his head amusedly: "You guys don't have to sing a double act in front of me. Recently, due to the war in the mainland, it has indeed affected the matter of extermination of pirates. With the successive capture of Eyeshiling and Zhennan Pass, the war in the mainland came to an end. This time, this time, I am discussing with you about the matter of extermination of the black shark pirates on Yue'er Island."

The two were overjoyed when they heard this.

While I was talking, I had already arrived at the beach. The sea water was extremely clear and there was no garbage on the beach.

In reality, it has been difficult to see such a clean beach, and Ouyang Shuo has the urge to go into the sea. He thought that next time he had time, he could take Bing'er to the beach for fun.

"Xuwen!" Ouyang Shuo called.

"exist!"

"You help me do something, build a wooden hut near the beach. Next time I have time, I will take Bing'er here for vacation, so I can have a place to stay." Ouyang Shuo ordered.

Although he is a lord, Ouyang Shuo does not want to be trapped in military and political affairs all the time. He still has to rest when he should rest, and when he should enjoy it, he still has to enjoy it.

"Here!" Gu Xiuwen responded solemnly, and he had made up his mind to build the wooden cottage beautifully to ensure that Junhou and Miss San have a comfortable living environment.

"Let's go, go back to the county government." After getting excited, Ouyang Shuo was about to go back home.

***************

Beihai County Government Office, Conference Hall.

Ouyang Shuo silently recited the stone tablet in his heart, and the white stone tablet slowly rose from the ground of the conference hall. On the front of the stone tablet, the three seal scripts of Beihai County are shining brightly.

He pressed his right hand on the front of the stone sign, silently chanting the affiliated village, and the system prompt sounded immediately.

"System prompt: Beihai County is a second-level county town and has three affiliated village quotas. Is it used?"

"use!"

"System prompt: Beihai County's village building token is a silver-level token, and the affiliated village building token is automatically reduced to a level and becomes a black iron-level token. Will it be separated immediately?"

“Separate!”

Three black lights shot out from the stone tablet and slowly fell on Ouyang Shuo's hand, turning into three black iron-level village building tokens. Ouyang Shuo took the opportunity to check the properties of the village building token.

【Name】: Village Construction Order (Black Iron Level)

【Features】: The attraction rate of refugees increased by 25%, the attraction rate of special talents increased by 10%, the crop yield increased by 25%, the skill proficiency of production residents increased by 10%, and the level of military soldiers increased by 10%

[Evaluation]: The only item cannot be dropped or traded.

The characteristics of the Black Iron-level village building token are only half that of the gold level, and the grade is much lower. Ouyang Shuo didn't mind, and it would be better to have three village building orders to store storage bags than not.

"Will the Lord want to establish an affiliated territory?" Gu Xiuwen, who was standing beside him, asked.

Ouyang Shuo then remembered that he was a little embarrassed before he explained the [fusion token] to Gu Xiuwen. He still remembered that Gu Xiuwen had asked twice for instructions on whether to allow Beihai County to establish an affiliated territory, but he refused.

"Xuwen, there is something that I want to tell you." Ouyang Shuo paused for a moment and continued: "Beihai County should still concentrate on developing the headquarters as its top priority, so there is no need to build a next-level affiliated territory. These three village building tokens are of other use."

Gu Xiuwen's face turned pale in an instant, thinking that Ouyang Shuo was dissatisfied with the development of Beihai County and did this just now.

"The humble minister is afraid. If you have to bear the entrusted lords, please punish him!" Gu Xiuwen knelt on the ground half-kneeled, feeling frightened.

Ouyang Shuo shook his head. This is not good for scholars. They have too many thoughts and like to think about it themselves. If it were Zhao Dexian or Zhao Dewang, they would definitely not behave like this, but instead directly asked the reason.

"Get up, don't get me wrong. This arrangement is not because I have any dissatisfaction with you, but because of a coordinated arrangement based on the overall planning of the territory. Beihai County is close to the sea and needs to gather and develop, and this is the right way." Ouyang Shuo had to explain, and he didn't want any grudges left in the heart of this loving general.

"Here!" Gu Xiuwen's face relaxed, and he always felt relieved.

It’s no wonder that Gu Xiuwen is so nervous. It’s really because of the recent period that Beihai County is overtaken by Lushui County, which has made Gu Xiuwen, who has always been competitive, have a knot in his heart. He found that he is still a little nervous.

Ouyang Shuo also discovered that Gu Xiuwen's current mentality is somewhat unbalanced. It is difficult for outsiders to persuade such things; the more they persuade them, the deeper they may deepen their heart knots and they can only rely on themselves to adjust themselves.

As the lord, Ouyang Shuo naturally cannot favor any party. Whether it is Lushui County, Beihai County, or even Youyi County, the palms and backs of hands are flesh. Whichever development is better is a good thing.

If the competition between subordinate territories can be controlled within a controllable range, it is a good thing, and Ouyang Shuo will not interfere. Of course, if the chief officer of the subordinate territories crosses the boundary because of competition and does anything extraordinary, Ouyang Shuo will never be lenient and will definitely punish him severely.

With the increase of subordinate territories and the increasing strength of subordinate territories, how to balance the resource allocation and personnel layout between various territories is a profound art.

The reason why Ouyang Shuo was in a hurry to build Tianhai Road was to strengthen centralization and strengthen the base's control over the affiliated territories so as not to escape from his own control.

In this regard, Ouyang Shuo is still immature and can only take one step, look at it, and take it slowly.
