After many years, Fan Ning once again set foot on the land of Kunzhou. This land he fought for and wrote a gorgeous chapter appeared in his dreams more than once, making him lingering in his dreams, and now he is finally back.

When Fanning's ship leaned on the dock in Kunnan Bay, the dock was waiting to greet him and tens of thousands of Tang County soldiers and officials immediately burst into cheers.

Fanning walked off the big ship, and he was also excited, and he finally set foot on this land again.

Lu Wanjiang, the magistrate of Tang County, and Ma Weiguo, the commander-in-chief stationed in Tang County, came forward to see the arrival of the Strategic Envoy. Lu Wanjiang was born in a famous family in Hebei. He was a Jinshi in the sixth year of Jiayou and was the son-in-law of Zheng Taiwei. In the seventh year of Jiayou, he became the Chief of the Grand Historian Bureau. He was a young man with a promising future. The commander-in-chief Ma Weiguo was originally just a team leader. He was promoted to the head of the capital by Fan Ning and has now been promoted to the commander-in-chief.

The old friends were particularly happy to meet each other. Fan Ning smiled and said, "Yu Xiaonian said that Kunzhou has not changed a lot. In fact, I am very happy about this sentence. I am afraid that Kunzhou will change a lot and I don't even recognize it myself. But I also look forward to good changes in Kunzhou. I feel really contradictory!"

Lu Wanjiang bowed and said, "Please rest assured that the changes in Kunzhou are in the heart, and you will never disappoint me!"

Fanning nodded, "Then I'm looking forward to it!"

At this time, dozens of old men came forward to present land to Fanning. Fanning still had a vague impression. He suddenly pointed at someone and said happily: "I remember you are the grain king Liu, who I personally awarded the medal. You have obtained the leader in the first year."

The old man was so excited that he burst into tears, "I still remember me!"

Lu Wanjiang smiled beside him and said, "Last year, the leader in yield per mu was taken away by Old Man Liu. It has been three consecutive years. Under the leadership of the old man, the average grain yield per mu in Tang County has increased to 400 kilograms."

This result made Fanning very satisfied. He nodded, "This is the change in the bones."

He knew very well that it was difficult to increase grain output. At the beginning, Tang County had a wheat yield of only 300 kilograms per mu, but now it has increased by 100 kilograms. It must have put in a lot of effort. It is not easy!

He smiled at Lu Wanjiang and said, "This is your greatest political achievement!"

Lu Wanjiang was overjoyed and bowed and said, "Thank you for your praise. I will continue to work hard!"

At this time, Fan Ning recognized an old man again and said with a smile: "I still remember you, Zhang Ping from Baihe Village, is your grandson the first child born in Kunzhou, or is it my name? What's going on now?"

The old man nodded repeatedly, "Thank you for your concern, the child is already nine years old."

He quickly turned around and waved, and a stubborn young man ran forward and knelt down to salute, "Zhang Kunsheng kowtows to the envoy!"

Fan Ning laughed when he remembered something. When he was intrigued by the time, he named Kunsheng. As a result, more than 40 children later named Kunsheng, but their surnames were different. Even Mingli's son's nickname was Kunsheng.

He pulled the child up and asked with a smile, "Are you still studying?"

Zhang Kunsheng nodded, "Study in school, and then study in county schools in three years, and then study in state schools. Grandfather hopes that I can study in the Imperial Academy."

"Okay! I am determined to finish studying at the Imperial Academy and come back to work for the villagers to make Kunzhou better."

"The envoy teaches me, the students remember it!"

Fanning waved to the tens of thousands of people who warmly welcomed him, and then boarded a convertible carriage and entered the county town amid the cheers of the people.

The county town has indeed changed a lot. Almost all the wooden houses built in the past have disappeared and turned into all brick and tile houses. This is also the cold winter in Kunzhou. The brick and tile houses have better effects on keeping warm than wooden houses. The sewage system that has been criticized has also been improved. Various domestic sewage finally flows into the sea with hot spring water, and toilets are collected and processed daily like in the capital.

"How much population is Tang County now?" Fan Ning asked.

Lu Wanjiang bowed and said, "I have reported to the envoy that the population of Tang County is now 3,120 households. It has increased by 2,000 households compared to the envoy's departure, but they are all in the countryside."

Fan Ning also heard Yu Xiaonian and Cao's poems talk about it. A few years ago, during the severe drought on Shaanxi Road, hundreds of thousands of people fled to Hebei and the capital. Later, the imperial court resettled it from many places, of which 8,500 households and about 40,000 moved to Danzhou and Kunzhou, but the main one was Kunzhou, with almost 30,000 people moving there.

So when I left, there were only one thousand households in Tang County, and now it has increased to 3,120 households, a triple increase.

"Did they all move from Shaanxi Road?"

"Not only immigrants from Shaanxi Road, but also soldiers who were willing to stay. There were about 2,000 people who retired from the army and worked as farmers. Most of them married Japanese girls. More than 600 new households in Tang County alone."

Fan Ning frowned, "Wouldn't the population pressure in Han County be very high?"

"Han County has a large population, so Kunzhou applied to the court to establish two counties, one is Wei County and the other is Qi County. Wei County is north of Han County and Qi County is on the Kunnan Peninsula."

Lu Wanjiang hesitated and whispered: "Kunzhou adopted the method of Fan Jun that year, first building a town and then building a county town. Xinqi Town and Xinwei Town have been built long ago, and the population has exceeded 1,000 households."

It was obvious that there was a lot of change, why did Yu Xiaonian say that there was not much change? Fan Ning changed his mind and immediately understood that these changes mainly occurred after Yu Xiaonian, so he didn't know it.

Fanning visited the county town again. The business was indeed much more prosperous than before. There were dozens of shops in New Tang Wazi, and the number of restaurants and brothels increased to more than a dozen. But what made Fanning feel relieved was that various schools appeared, including adult literacy schools, private schools, schools, county schools, etc.

"This is"

Fanning suddenly found that a grocery store was selling newspapers in front of a thick stack, which really surprised him. He went up to pick up the newspapers, mainly "Taboo" and "Xinbao", and there were newspapers from last October.

Lu Wanjiang explained: "The envoy knew that Kunzhou could not be opened in winter. This was sent when the first fleet arrived in Kunzhou the day before yesterday. In fact, we all knew that the news of the death of the late emperor and the ascension of the new emperor was sent by Feige. Governor Liang was considering it. Kunzhou also issued a weekly report, which required the approval of the imperial court. The people wanted to know what happened in their hometown. We also felt that this would allow us to be closer together with the Song Dynasty."

Fan Ning nodded and said, "This is my main purpose in Kunzhou. I have to decide many things. Please send someone to inform officials from Kunzhou immediately. I will meet with Kunzhou officials in Xinqi Town."

Fan Ning visited the military camp again in the afternoon. Currently, 5,000 troops were stationed in Kunzhou. Since the militia system was implemented eight years ago, Kunzhou could quickly arm 10,000 well-trained young and strong militia during the war, making the total force reach 15,000 and hundreds of warships, mainly to guard against the Japanese sneak attack on Kunzhou.

The next morning, Fanning took more than 20 followers along the Han and Tang official road toward Han County, but he was not going to Han County. When he was about fifty miles away from Han County, Fanning turned south and ran towards Xinqi Town along another newly built official road.

The official road has not been finally repaired, and you can still see Japanese workers who are building roads along the way. Currently, there are 25,000 Japanese workers in Kunzhou, mainly engaged in three major industries: mining, logging and road construction.

Kunzhou did not abuse these workers. On the contrary, they could eat a lot, wear thick clothes, and return to their hometown to buy land three years later with a large sum of money. They have always been the most popular and enviable profession for the Japanese people. Due to the extremely low mortality rate, they are also very popular among Japanese governments everywhere.

When it was dark, Fan Ning and his party arrived in Xinqi Town, which was the original home of the Kun people. After the Kun people's riots were suppressed, all Kun people were moved to the Yu Country, and the Kunnan Peninsula was assigned to Han County.

Xinqi County has a very good seat, only ten miles away from the seaside, no mountains, and is surrounded by plains. After cutting down the trees, a large fertile field appeared. The Kunnan River, which originated in the central mountain, flowed all the way through Han County, then flowed south from Han County, through the largest plain in Kunzhou, and finally flowed northward from the Xinqi Town Zhedao to the bay.

The Kun tribes canoe into the sea from this river. The bay ten miles away is also a natural harbor with an extremely superior geographical location. Xinqi Town chose the city-building location here, which is also the result of everyone's desire.

Fanning arrived in Xinqi Town, and a deep river was dug around the town. Fanning and his party entered the big town with thousands of families from a wooden bridge.
