Plane of Immortal Cultivation

Chapter 172
The county magistrate and magistrate of Xing'an County entered the room, and when they saw Qin Guan, they all bowed and saluted, "Magistrate Ye Jing of Xing'an County, Wei Laifeng of Xing'an County have seen the magistrate."

"You two don't need to be too polite. We met for the first time, but we didn't expect it to be at the post station. Let me introduce you. This is the newly appointed Lin'an County Magistrate Shen Yichen. We are Jinshi of the same discipline and fellow villagers, so we came to take office together."

Qin Guan's words contain a lot of information.

Ye Jing and Lai Feng turned to greet Shen Yichen again.

County Magistrate Ye said: "My lord, this place is only [-] miles away from Xing'an County. We have arranged a place for you to stay and rest in the county town, which is better than this inn. At the same time, we have arranged the best restaurant for you. .”

Qin looked at each other and said with a smile: "I will go to Xing'an County, but let's forget about today, you probably haven't eaten dinner when you came here in a hurry, let Cui Yicheng prepare more, we will set up a table here Let's have a banquet, just the two of you tell me about the situation in Xing'an County."

Ye Jing and Lai Feng looked at each other and had to stay.

After the food and wine were served, several people ate and chatted. Ye Jing roughly told Qin Guan the situation in Xing'an County. There were 750 households in Xing'an County, with a total of more than 13 people. It belongs to the typical type of large land and sparse population.

If it is a prosperous place in the south, with a radius of a hundred miles, the population will not be less than one million.

The situation in Xing'an County is not very good. In the last military disaster, nearly a thousand civilians were killed, and thousands of people were taken away. There were many women, and most of these women fell into the hands of the Liao people. Most of them were slaves or concubines.

Hearing these cold numbers, Qin Guan felt very unhappy.

"Have those people been resettled in their hometowns now, and how many are still displaced?" Qin Guan asked.

"Most of them went back, but some of them lost their houses and fields, and they lost their food and money. Some of them stayed in the county town or went to Xiongzhou City. There are about 4000 to [-] people."

After finishing speaking, County Magistrate Ye raised his eyes to look at Qin Guan, seeing that Qin Guan showed no signs of getting angry, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"The spring plowing has passed. How will they live in the second half of the year and next year?" Qin Guan asked.

"I haven't thought of any good solution yet. We've been waiting for the magistrate to take office and wait for his deployment." County magistrate Ye replied in a muffled voice.

Qin looked at him, and it seemed that he was another generation with a lifeless life.

Qin Guan asked again if he knew about the situation in Lin'an County, County Magistrate Ye said: "The original Qu County Magistrate was killed by the Liao people, and now Yan County Cheng is in charge of the work, which should be worse than Xing'an County. .”

Qin Guan now has a general understanding of the situation in his jurisdiction, that is, it is a super mess.

Zeng Yu is an old bastard.

I found such a place for my brother, and I think there is no worse place in the whole Zhao Kingdom, so it is really hard for him.

Why didn't you vomit to death that day.

Qin Guan has an impulse now, if he still has the Explosive Talisman in his hand, he will definitely stuff it directly into the old guy's eyes.

Then it detonated directly on the Golden Palace.

After dinner, Qin Guan asked County Magistrate Ye and County Wei Laifeng to leave. After they left, Qin Guan asked Shen Yichen, "What's the county magistrate's name in Xing'an County?"

"My surname is Lin, Lin Tong."

Qin nodded, County Magistrate Ye did not bring the county magistrate to see him, but brought the chief of the public security bureau. It seems that Lin Xiancheng is probably not in the same group as County Magistrate Ye.

Maybe Lin Tong didn't even know that he was in Xing'an County today.

It's really that the little demon in the temple is very windy, and the water is shallow.

After County Magistrate Ye got out of the post station and got on the train, the respectful expression just now disappeared immediately, his face became serious, and his eyes became fascinated.

County Wei Laifeng came over and said, "My lord, our new magistrate seems to be difficult to deal with."

Ye Jingjing nodded, "Although he is young, he doesn't feel like a young man to me. He doesn't look like a high-ranking official suddenly, but he is very calm. He is indeed not easy to deal with. It seems that we have to be careful in the future. "

"But he is new here, and there are so many things waiting for him to deal with in Xiongzhou, none of which are easy. Hehe, if he is busy, let's see how capable our new champion magistrate is."

"Where is the king of Xiong'an?" Lai Feng asked.

"The king of the county should still be in Manxianglou, let's go there now."

The carriage traveled all the way in a hurry, and returned to Xing'an County in a short time. At this time, the county was dark and silent, and the carriage came to a street in the north of the city. On this street, there were several houses with big lanterns, and people came in and out from time to time. angry.

Looking up at these places, it was either a restaurant or a brothel. The carriage stopped in front of a brothel with a plaque on Manxianglou. This brothel was the largest and busiest on this street. When the county magistrate and the county captain got off , The two have changed into casual clothes.

Going up to the third floor, the decoration here is very luxurious. A man in his 30s is sitting in the middle.

Kneeling around him are four women, serving with all their heart.

There were more than a dozen people sitting around the room, each with a beautiful woman in their arms. The room was very lively, with teasing laughter from time to time.

Seeing the county magistrate and county lieutenant coming in, these people all looked over, but no one got up. County magistrate Ye seemed to have gotten used to it, walked up to the man who was sitting, raised his hand and saluted, and said, "Young king, we have invited the new The prefect of Qin came, but the prefect of Qin reasoned that he was tired and did not come."

The man known as the king of the county twirled the wine glass in his hand, then swallowed it in one gulp, and asked, "Didn't you say I'm here?"

"Without the order of the county king, how dare you say it." County Wei Laifeng said with a smile.

The king of the county threw the cup, and a woman quickly caught it. The king of the county said: "Hehe, if you haven't come, you won't come. Come on, prepare two best girls for each of County Magistrate Ye and County Lai. Okay, let's play music." , dance, we enjoy ourselves."

Immediately, music and obscene laughter resounded in the room.

The next day, Qin Guan's team set off again.

Today, both Qin Guan and Shen Yichen were riding on horseback, looking at the situation on both sides as they walked. There are many hills in Hexi, especially in Xiongzhou. Almost half of the area is hilly and mountainous. Even if you can see fields on both sides of the official road, Most are also drylands.

Shen Yichen said with some concern: "The output of this kind of dry land is very limited. In the north, millet is the main product, that is, millet. One mu of good land can produce about 260 jin, and dry land can only produce about 160 jin. If it catches up with the drought, maybe There is only a yield of one hundred and ten catties."

"A family of five tends 10 acres of land. After the court tax is removed, they will be able to eat. This is also because they are farmers. If they are tenant farmers, they will not even be able to feed their stomachs after a busy year."

Qin Guan asked: "How do you know?"

"It looks in the book."

Thinking about future generations, thinking about the present, Qin Guan's mood suddenly became very heavy.

At this moment, a huge procession suddenly appeared in the middle of the road, surrounded by hundreds of house slaves and maidservants, surrounded by a very large carriage, Qin Guan estimated that this carriage was four meters wide, It is the size of a room, surrounded by dark yellow silk sheds, embroidered with cloud and dragon patterns, eight pure white horse-drawn carriages, each with red-dyed golden pheasant feathers on their heads, shaking in the wind. , is very cool.

Seeing this carriage, Qin Guan's first reaction was,
Mom sells batches of luxury!
