Transmigrated into a female county magistrate during a famine, leading her country to prosperity

The capital city of Dezhou is more prosperous than the capital city of Liuyang.

Dezhou Wharf is five or six times larger than Liuyang Wharf. Compared with Dezhou Wharf, Tongan Wharf seems not as good as it used to be.

There are dozens of large docking platforms at the dock alone, with all kinds of cargo ships, building ships, and grain ships docked at the shore, creating a strong sense of oppression.

Upon closer inspection, there was actually a pleasure boat parked on the shore. Not only was it beautifully shaped, but there was even a pavilion built on top of it.

Fang Ziyan's mouth was long enough to fit an egg, and his legs walked uncontrollably towards the pleasure boat. Yu Jiusi couldn't bear to watch it anymore, so he grabbed him by the scruff of the neck.

Yu Jiusi threatened: "This is a new ship temporarily docked. It will be transported to the lake later. If you go there casually, they will think you are a thief."

Fang Ziyan was held by him, his legs slightly hanging in the air, his eyes still looking: "That boat... is really beautiful."

Yu Jiusi curled his lips, "Your family is in business, don't you? Go home and earn some money, and then you can buy a boat like this and invite your sister Shen to go boating on the lake. Oh, I forgot, isn't there a lake in Tongan County? I guess your boat has to be left in Liuyang Prefecture."

It was just a casual remark, but Fang Ziyan took it seriously.

He broke free from Yu Jiusi's hold and nodded seriously, "I will work hard to make money! Brother Jiusi, I'll invite you to go boating with me in the future."

Yu Jiusi didn't believe it at all, and said perfunctorily: "Okay, I'll wait for your good news."

The group of people got off the boat one after another.

After getting off the boat, Shen Zheng couldn't help but be in a trance for a moment when her legs stepped onto the platform.

This feeling of being down to earth and not having to constantly adjust her center of gravity to stand firm actually felt a little unfamiliar to her.

She looked down for a moment, stamped her feet, and then laughed.

Survival of the fittest, humans are truly extremely adaptable creatures.

Yang Shao and several crew members stayed on the boat. Qiao Gu found the steward, paid the mooring fee, and then took a few people to the market to buy daily necessities.

Shen Zheng and the others had nothing to do, so they decided to stroll around the city and experience the customs and culture of Dezhou Prefecture.

Dezhou has developed water transport, and people from all over the world gather here. The streets are filled with various accents, and the coming and going of people from all over the country makes it unique.

There were juggling shows, open-air stages, and small vendors everywhere, and all kinds of excitement were going on, which made the little ones scream in surprise and say, "I want to stay one night before leaving."

But Yu Shizhang did not agree. Even though Shen Zheng missed Lu Di, she also did not agree.

While walking around, Yu Shizhang said there was an old brand that sold delicious pastries and he wanted to take them there to buy some.

The group followed him through the streets and alleys, through the streets and alleys, and through the streets and alleys again.

When they were about to pass by "Jufu Teahouse" for the fourth time, someone finally couldn't help it.

Yu Jiusi hissed, squinted at the sign of "Jufu Teahouse", and asked Shen Zheng casually, "Miss Shen..., how many times have we passed by this 'Jufu Teahouse'?"

Shen Zheng exchanged signals with him, snapped her fingers, and said, "Five, six, seven, or eight times. Grandpa Yu must think this place is good and likes to visit it."

Yu Shizhang was devastated.

He frowned and looked up at the plaque of "Jufu Teahouse". "No, it should be here. That pastry shop has been open for nearly a hundred years, and the business is good. There is no reason for it to close, right?"

He is unwilling to admit that he has taken the wrong path.

In the end, Yu Jiusi went to the door politely and asked the owner of the teahouse. He came out and raised his chin and said, "Xiong's pastry shop, that street."

......

The free time is two hours.

It took them an hour to find "Xiong's Pastry Shop".

It took another half an hour to queue up at the pastry shop. By the time I got the pastries, there was only half an hour left before the scheduled return time.

Everyone was wailing, but the pastries were really delicious, so the trip wasn't a loss.

While chewing, they walked towards the pier and bought some small items from the roadside stalls.

When they arrived at the dock, Qiao Gu and her companions had already finished their shopping, and the crew were loading baskets of fresh vegetables onto the boat.

Shen Zheng and his companions were reluctant to get on board, so they stood on the platform and chatted. While they were talking and laughing, suddenly a man came up to them.

Yu Jiusi remembered him. He was the small manager of the building ship dock, and their berthing fees were given to him.

The other party smiled and looked at the vegetables in the basket before asking, "Sir, where are you going to buy so many vegetables?"

Yu Jiusi frowned, barely noticeable, "Is there anything I can do for you, Boss?"

"It's okay, it's okay." The steward was still cheerful, looking at the basket and said, "It's just that our dock sells fruits and vegetables and so on, so I thought... if you need anything, you can buy it at the dock, right? It also saves trouble."

Yu Jiusi looked at him for a while before nodding and saying, "Next time, we've collected enough this time."

The steward became happy and asked immediately: "Sir, when will you need something? I will have someone save the freshest food for you, and I guarantee you will be satisfied!"

He inquired about the customers' needs like a qualified salesman.

Fang Ziyan was about to speak when Yu Jiusi pulled him back.

Yu Jiusi pretended to be in deep thought, "About three to five days, no need to stay, I will come to find you then."

The steward smiled happily after hearing this, "Hey! Hey! Then we have a deal!"

Looking at the butler's back as he left, Fang Ziyan looked up in confusion and looked at Yu Jiusi's chin: "Brother Jiusi, why did you... lie to him?"

They went all the way north, how could they return to Texas in just three or five days?

Yu Jiusi let go of his hand, glanced at Shen Zheng, and walked towards the boat, "Let's talk on the boat."

......

The locks were unlocked one by one, and the ship cut through the water and slowly left the platform.

On the deck, Yu Jiusi and Shen Zheng lay on the fence together, looking at the dock platform.

"You discovered it too, right?" Yu Jiusi stared at a spot on the platform and asked Shen Zheng.

Shen Zheng nodded, "But I can't understand, if he wanted to find out about our schedule, why would he choose you? If he was a discerning person, he would definitely choose Qiao Gu or Zi Yan. After all, you don't look like someone who is easy to mess with, and Zi Yan is a big sieve who can't wait to show off to others."

"I can't figure this out either..." Yu Jiusi's gaze was still on the dock, "When he was talking to me, he secretly glanced at you several times. Do you think... is he reminding us?"

Remind them that someone is watching them and is trying to find out where they are going.

"Me?" Shen Zheng pointed at herself, "You mean, he secretly reminded us because of me?"

Shen Zheng didn't think so, but Yu Jiusi felt that it was very likely.

The two of them tacitly agreed not to tell anyone about the matter, but Yu Jiusi secretly increased his vigilance and led people to search the boat from top to bottom.
