Datang Lingnan King

Chapter 14, First Arrival at Zhujiazhuang
Of course, the hustle and bustle in Chang'an City had nothing to do with Feng Daiwen.After Cong Miansheng, Feng Daiwen bid farewell to Li Shimin and went to Zhujiazhuang, a place rewarded by Li Yuan in Wannian County. The place is in a place called Zhujiazhuang in twenty miles of Wannian County. The entire Zhujiazhuang has 42 tenants of Feng Daiwen. 103 adults over the age of 18, 68 people aged 14 to 17, 12 people under the age of 14, 23 of the 68 people are women, only 41 are real adults, and 18 people are either disabled or old. legal labor,
Feng Daiwen bid farewell to Li Shimin and went out of the capital to take 100 Tiewei and the fifth child Feng Daihuo to the place rewarded by Li Yuan in Wannian County. First, he went to Wannian County. The geographical location of the county is very important. Most of Wannian County is an honorable place. The magistrate of Wannian County is Li Fang, a man from the Li family of Zhao County. When he learned of Feng Daiwen's arrival, he seldom welcomed Feng Daiwen into the county government enthusiastically.
"Young master has worked hard all the way. The official has already received the official letter from above. This time, the 100 mu of land that the elder bestowed by the sage happened to be assigned to the Zhujiazhuang land and the tenants. However, in the morning, the saint ordered another Add 100 mu, but there is not such a wide contiguous land nearby, this is the map, please take a look, the unenclosed land is unowned land, and the young man can choose at will." County magistrate Li said:
Feng Daiwen said to Li Frame, "Thank you County Magistrate Li", and came to the map and asked, "Excuse me, County Magistrate Li, where is Zhujiazhuang?"

Li Frame pointed to a place on the map, "This is the little grandpa's Zhujiazhuang, which currently has a population of 42 households",
Feng Daiwen looked at the map and asked suspiciously, "Why is such a large piece of land behind Zhujiazhuang's location unowned?"

Li Fang smiled bitterly and said: "Young Lord, I don't know. There is a stone mountain behind Zhujiazhuang. The mountain is full of stones, and there are few trees. The local people call it Stone Mountain. The side of the stone mountain is also full of small hills. The soil is very sticky, and nothing grows, so it is a land without an owner, and the lower officials dare not give this land to the young master, right?"

Feng Daiwen said indifferently, "Just this piece of land", anyway, he doesn't rely on this piece of land, and he doesn't have much land in Lingnan. Li Yuan also understands this, so he just gave a piece of land symbolically. Settling down, it's not possible to buy everything in Chang'an, it's not easy for Feng Daiwen to bring everyone to live in Chang'an City.These days, people's thinking is still based on geography.

Li Hua said happily, "Since this is the case, this area will be allotted to the little grandpa." Li Hua is also good at being a man. The land allocated to Feng Daiwen is divided according to 100 acres of ground, and the mountain is not counted. Several hills went in,

Feng Daiwen looked at it and said, "Can the county magistrate Li sell the surrounding hills to me?" Feng Daiwen thought that he had brought hundreds of elite soldiers and 5000 pretended civilian husbands.
Li Fang said: "If the little father-in-law wants it, this area should be assigned to the little father-in-law. Anyway, this large area is unowned, and nothing will be produced."

"No, no, as much as you want, you can't let County Magistrate Li lose your tongue for such a trivial matter," Feng Daiwen said.

Li Hua said gratefully, "Thank you for your understanding, my lord. The 800-acre barren hills will be allotted to my lord. I don't know what else I can do for my lord."Li Frame also deliberately made friends with Feng Daiwen.

Feng Daiwen went again: "I really have something to bother the county magistrate Li. I would like to trouble the county magistrate to summon the unemployed refugees from Wannian County. I will build a house for Zhuangzi. I will be responsible for the board and lodging. I will pay 5 Wen a day and leave 50 people here. Here to help County Magistrate Li",
"It's okay, this is a trivial matter. It's winter, and many people are at home with nothing to do. Besides, the little father-in-law provides food, lodging and wages."Lee box arrives.

Feng Daiwen said: "It's still mainly refugees, no matter how many people there are, anyway, there is nothing to do in winter, I plan to build the road from Zhujiazhuang to Wannian County. This will bother Li County Magistrate, and I have to purchase some in the county. I'll take my leave now," Feng Daiwen left 10 yuan to bid farewell to Li Hua and went out to do some shopping.

Feng Daiwen bid farewell to Li Fang, and distributed his manpower to make a big purchase, including food, clothing, and farm tools, and almost emptied all the county's stocks, planning to feed 2 people for half a year. More than 5000 people went straight to Zhujiazhuang with more than 200 vehicles of supplies, and a large part of the supplies were transported to Zhujiazhuang by merchants.
When Feng Daiwen came to Zhujiazhuang with his troops, the whole Zhuangzi was terrified. There were more than 5000 people, more than 200 carts of supplies, and dozens of knights. , So many people ran out of a mountain village, it really surprised the people in the mountain village.

When the team arrived outside the villa, an old man tremblingly walked up to the front of the team and faced Feng Daiwen, "I've seen this military man, this old man is the leader of Zhu's villa, how dare I ask the military man what he wants to do here."

Feng Daiwen got off his horse and walked up to the old man and said with a smile, "Don't panic, old man. I am Captain Feng Daiwen. Zhujiazhuang was a gift from a sage. This time I came to the village to have a look and plan to build a residence here."

The old man felt relieved, "Old man Zhu Hao has seen the master's house, this old man will call the whole village to see the master's house",
Feng Daiwen arrived. "Thank you," and commanded camp,

Not long after, the whole villa, old and young, came to the front of the village. Lizheng Zhu Hao stepped forward, "Master, 42 people from 103 households in Zhuangzi have come."

Feng Daiwen stepped forward, and everyone, old and young, saluted: "I have seen the master's house",
Feng Daiwen said loudly, "I am now the owner of the entire Zhujiazhuang. My name is Feng Daiwen. Now the entire 1000 mu of Zhujiazhuang belongs to me. This year, the whole village is exempted from tax. I want to build a manor here, and everyone in the village can come here. Come to help, two meals a day, 5 renminbi per day for adults, 3 renminbi for weak women”,
Feng Daiwen didn't finish his sentence, but the people below cheered, "Thank you, Master", and even those who had family difficulties knelt down to thank them happily.
