Chapter 45 Chapter 45
Everyone straightened their backs involuntarily, and felt a chill rise in the spine.

This aunt hasn't lost her temper for a long time, why did everyone forget that she is actually a demon?
Guo Shun led the crowd to bow their heads: "But it is sent by the county lord."

Only then did Xu Ji show a satisfied smile.

At this time, the inspection department came to report: "The general Wang sent someone to transport things, saying that the girl gave permission."

Xu Ji nodded: "Let them drive the vehicles in, Guo Shun, you take someone to dispose of them yourself. People from the Agriculture Bureau prepared the sweet potato seedlings today, and they will be transported away tomorrow, and they will need to be cultivated there for a while."

Guo Shun took the order and left.

Sister Wen took the initiative to ask for orders: "Master, the old slave can go with you, no matter where you go, you have to eat, don't you?"

Thinking of the villagers yesterday, Xu Ji nodded, "Let's bring the ingredients ourselves. Since we're going, we'll bring a little more manpower, and even the Great General Wang will do it too."

Sister Wen quickly went down to prepare.

Xue Qianya opened her mouth, Xu Ji caught a glimpse and waved her hand, "You can stay here at ease, and I can transfer you anytime when you need it.

"Feng Bao, come with me, and call me two girls who are available at any time."

An hour later, Guo Shun came back and reported that all the prepared food had been loaded into the car, and the car was covered with straw mats; Mother Wen was also ready, and Xie Qing arranged for four guards.

Xu Ji led his men out of Xu Yuan in a high spirited manner.

As soon as he came out of the gate, he saw someone peeping at him not far away. Xu Ji curled his lips and ignored him. He only told Guo Shun and Xie Qing to guard Xu Garden, and strode towards Song Qingzhai who was waiting by the road.

Naturally, Song Qingzhai had already discovered those spies, and asked, "Will you clean it up for me?"

"There's no need to waste manpower," Xu Ji curled his lips again, "It's like cutting leeks, one crop after another, troublesome!

"As long as you can guarantee that no outsiders will be allowed in."

Song Qingzhai nodded: "You can rest assured about this."

A group of people set off in a mighty way.

It attracted the attention of passers-by in the city, but because Song Qingzhai ordered his soldiers to wear military uniforms, no one dared to discuss it casually.

Xu Ji didn't ride a horse this time, and rode in the car with Mother Wen and the others.

But as soon as she got out of the city gate, she raised the curtain of the car, and Nanny Wen wanted to stop her, but she didn't dare.

As soon as the field of vision was widened, it was found that the bumpy road surface yesterday had been simply repaired. Although the carriage was still bumpy, it was not unbearable.

This time, he arrived directly at the county seat of Wan County, and the county magistrate Su Zheng walked five miles out of the city to greet him with great respect.

Xu Ji was polite to him, and briefly communicated with him about the reconstruction, Su Zhengzhi grinned: "The county lord, it's not that the lower officials are unwilling to cooperate, it's really...now the county is so poor that it can't pay for it.

"Besides, the county lord wants to build canals again, so he needs to write up and communicate with Qiu County. When the approval comes out, I'm afraid it's already late for the farming season."

Xu Ji frowned: "You don't need to take care of these things, you just need to ensure the stability of the county.

"Don't think I'm rude. If the county magistrate thinks I'm not qualified, then the authority of the general king is enough, right?"

Su Zheng secretly complained, but who made himself just a sesame official?I have to swallow the bitterness in my stomach, but I hope that the county lord is not trying to be fresh for a while, and tossing the countryside into a mess.

In fact, he knew that Xu Ji's backer was Song Qingzhai, and he didn't want to provoke her, but he couldn't resist the local gentry uniting to lobby, so he had to come forward to negotiate.

Now that he has returned home without a feather, no one will find fault with him.
