Zhang Rong was dressed in black, with his figure outlined in front and back, tied in a ponytail, and looked quite cold in the moonlight.
"What should I do?"
If it was usual, Zhao Maoshan must have been excited, but at this moment, he looked anxious, and his heart was burning, if Chu Fuyao confessed to them, they would be finished.
Zhang Rong frowned, his face was indifferent, and said, "I believe that Uncle Chu will not confess to us!"
” "Miss!"
Zhao Maoshan was anxious and said: "You don't know the means of the Dog Emperor, even the iron man will confess, Uncle Chu is not related to us, and he will not protect our ...... with his life."
"Shut up!"
Zhang Rong scolded in a low voice and glared at him coldly.
Zhao Maoshan's face changed, but he still gritted his teeth and said: "Miss, let's go, there is a chance to kill the Dog Emperor, we can't die here now......"
Zhang Rong was also uneasy, but his face was still calm, his eyes turned forward, and he said coldly: "If you are afraid of death, you can leave first, I can kill the Dog Emperor alone!"
” Zhao Maoshan's eyes flickered, looking at Zhang Rong's blown-and-breakable, arrogant side face, and struggled in his heart, and said: "I'll keep an eye on the contact point, if Uncle Chu confesses, we'll leave, we can't stay here."
After he finished speaking, he left, and did not wait for Zhang Rong to reply.
Zhang Rong glanced at his back, his expression did not move, his eyes were still staring at Xiao Lou, and he gritted his silver teeth and whispered: "Dog Emperor, if you dare to do anything to Uncle Chu, I will definitely divide your five horses!"
” Zhu Xu didn't know that someone was going to divide his five horses, so he said a few words to Zhao Shujiao, who came back, and then drank a bowl of medicine and fell asleep.
Zhu Xu slept very comfortably this night, and when he woke up the next day, he was in good spirits, and the whole person seemed to be a lot more relaxed.
"Let's go, go out and have a look."
After Zhu Xu finished breakfast, he led the people out of the house in a hurry.
He had a strong interest in Li Banghua's farm and wanted to see it with his own eyes.
Cao Huachun hurriedly asked Wang Yizhou to prepare, and followed Zhu Xu, surrounded by airtight wind in front and back.
Nowadays, cement roads are very popular, but except for the area around the town center, the rest of the country is still sandy roads, muddy and difficult to walk, and you have to bear the strange eyes of the surroundings.
Zhu Xu led a large group of people, and he couldn't go as he wanted, so he could only look at some places, or stand on a high place and look down.
Zhu Xu walked back and forth, walked around the town, and gave a general overview of the farm.
"Interesting ......"
Zhu Xu said with a smile on the way back.
Cao Huachun and Wang Yizhou didn't know why, but they didn't ask.
Zhu Xu slapped the folding fan in his hand and paced slowly, with a smile on his face.
Around the town, there were several large warehouses with soldiers' handles, and it was obvious that they contained grain.
Around the granary, there are teams of young and strong, working intensively, in and out, whether it is water or rice, it is public, regardless of you and me.
Some of the women were also in groups, all of them were doing things purposefully, they were not lazy, and no one sat on the sidelines.
From this surface, you can roughly see how this 'Qingshan Villa' operates, but the management of Zhu Xu is still not clear, and I don't know how Li Banghua did it.
However, it is nothing more than the words 'both grace and power, and clear rewards and punishments', and it can be said that Li Banghua's organizational ability is quite good.
Knowing the whole leopard, Zhu Xu was a lot relieved in his heart, and he took Li Banghua's ability to a new level, and he was also the only governor who made him feel relieved after turning the Ming Dynasty for half a circle.
"Ouch, Uncle Zhang, you can go, if you stay, you will have to starve to death......"
Zhu Xu had just walked to a shop, and an anxious voice of a young man came from inside.
"Look, I've been here for more than a dozen times, but you can give me a good word......"
The young man's voice seemed to be very aggrieved and anxious.
Zhu Xu stopped in the middle of the door and turned his head to look.
I saw that this was a lantern shop, which was full of lanterns, young people dressed in official clothes, and a middle-aged man was standing opposite, and there were three little girls, all of whom were under the age of fourteen.
The middle-aged man was holding a lantern in his hand, his face changed, and he just didn't speak.
The young officer looked parched and said, "Tell me, who has the spare money to buy this lantern now?"
It's not a problem for you to sit here and eat empty, you don't care about yourself, you have to think about three girls, right?
You're about to get married, can you come up with a little dowry?
If not, who would dare to marry?
Even if you marry back, can you still have a good life?
” The middle-aged man looked up at the errand officer, the corners of his mouth moved, and he stopped talking.

All three girls did not speak, their heads bowed.
The messenger continued: "This matter is not a lie to you, and it is not that you did not come back, besides, this is a matter explicitly promulgated by the imperial court and the governor Yamen, as long as you are willing to go to Liaodong, you will be given twenty acres of land, and you will not take a penny for the first three years, and there will be a subsidy of one hundred taels of silver every year, this is a great thing, think about it, can you have this good thing before the emperor ascends the throne?"
That's the Emperor's grace, and in the past you starved to death and no one cared about it......"
The middle-aged man finally spoke at this time, looked up at the young man and said: "I don't mean that the emperor, the imperial court, and the governor's yamen lied to me, it's just that our ancestors have been here for hundreds of years, where can we just leave, the people who are not familiar with the place are not familiar, and there ......are no people who die outside to collect the corpses."
When the errand officer saw that the middle-aged man was loose, he hurriedly said: "You are talking nonsense, this arrangement is all in the township, and every time it is our Shaanxi.
The messengers of the west followed the escort, and the arrangements were stopped before they came back, and the court gave silver and grain, why did they die?
It's not for you to do anything dangerous......
Your Majesty, why did the imperial court come from Shaanxi.
Isn't it because the natural disasters are so severe that crops can't be grown in the fields?
” The middle-aged man stopped talking again, and the lantern in his hand spun around.
The officer's eyes lit up, staring at the middle-aged man: "You also know what the situation is now, not to mention our Qingshan Villa, the entire south.
Yangyang, Han.
Zhongfu, there are many grains without harvest, it's been several years, if it goes on like this, don't talk about you, I have to go, and if I don't go, I'll starve to death!
The cracks in the ground have fallen into them, how can they grow things?
Liaodong is good, that is the place where the emperor defeated Jiannu a few years ago and took it back.
The West is several times larger, some of it is land, and it is all fertile land, all of which are newly cultivated, but there is a lack of human race, you say, isn't this a good thing?
” The middle-aged man looked up at the servant and said, "Then, what about my property here?"
” The officer's eyes smiled secretly, and he said more and more affirmatively: "How many times have I told you, the first three years, the right to use belongs to the governor's yamen, and the title deed is still in your hands, as long as you come back in the past three years, this land is still yours, but Liaodong's will be returned to the Liaodong governor's yamen, in short, within three years, choose one of the two, it will definitely not hurt you, you see, this is the bill of the royal bank, you can take three years, one hundred taels per year, three hundred taels for three years, you signed, I will go to the royal money bank to stamp a seal and it will take effect......"
Zhu Xu listened outside, his expression did not move, and his expression was thoughtful.
Immigration is also a major item of expenditure, tens of millions of taels of silver every year, in addition to the imperial court, there are also places, Liaodong apportionment, but it is still the imperial court gasping.
The errand continued, and said, "Anyway, you have heard almost what you should say and promise, didn't a few people come back to move things a while ago?"
You can go and inquire, ask clearly, it's up to you to decide whether to go or not, but don't blame the eldest nephew, my ugly words are ahead, now the disaster is serious, the whole country is over, if you want to eat enough, you have to find your own way, let go of the benefits given by the court, guard these broken lanterns, you starve to death, and the third sister, it's not too big or too bad......"
The middle-aged man frowned when he heard this, and his expression kept changing, as if he was quite uncomfortable.
Zhu Xu smiled, this errand is estimated to have done too much, this principle is smooth, and he also knows carrots and sticks.
However, it is difficult to leave the hometown, and if it is not in the end, no one wants to leave their homeland, and the matter of immigration is also complicated.
In the end, the middle-aged man still gritted his teeth and nodded, in fact, he should understand, he knew, he understood it thoroughly, but he couldn't make up his mind, but the reality was pressing in front of him, and he was unwilling to take up the hoe and go to the ground, not for himself, but also to consider how many daughters he had.
The young officer watched the middle-aged man sign his name, and then happily said again, turned around and went out, looked up at the sky, and said infinitely beautifully, "Finally another one!"
” When he noticed that Zhu Xu and a group of people were looking at him with strange eyes, he suddenly snorted with a bad face, looked at it a few times, and strode away.
Zhu Xu smiled, turned around and walked forward.
The west is better than he expected, at least in terms of humanities, and he has not seen the bad situation of poor mountains and bad waters.
This made him feel very good about Shaanxi.
The impression of the West has changed.
Zhu Xu walked slowly, and as soon as he returned to the door of the restaurant, he heard the voice of a middle-aged woman inside.
"Shopkeeper, this is my niece, a native of Fengxiang Mansion, I really can't survive there, so I came to join me, I know that you are short of people, as long as you give you food......"
Zhu Xu looked up and saw a middle-aged woman leading a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl, begging with the shopkeeper of the restaurant.
The shopkeeper looked at the girl, sighed lightly, and said, "Okay, if you can save one, I don't have a bad meal here, stay, help clean up the room, wash the dishes and chopsticks......"
The shopkeeper is kind-hearted, so he agreed.
When the middle-aged woman heard this, she hurriedly looked at the girl and said, "Lu'er, don't thank you for the shopkeeper......"
The girl hurriedly bent over and said timidly, "Thank you, shopkeeper." ” The shopkeeper nodded and said, "Let's go back first, bring the futon here, and then get familiar with it." ” "Thank you, thank you, shopkeeper......"
The girl thanked the shopkeeper for her kindness, and turned around with the middle-aged woman to go out. happened to have a straight face with Zhu Xu, and Zhu Xu looked up and was stunned.
This girl lowered her head, although there was some dust on her face, she still couldn't hide her aura, even if it was a coarse cloth dress, she had her own temperament, and she was not an ordinary girl.
The girl lowered her head, took the middle-aged woman's hand, and walked away quickly.
Zhu Xu pinched his chin, looked puzzled, and immediately entered the building with a smile, said hello to the shopkeeper and went upstairs.
The girl is naturally Zhang Rong, the moment she and Zhu Xu missed, she couldn't help but take out the dagger from her arms, and Zhu Xu was cold, but thinking that Chu Fuyao was still in Zhu Xu's hands, she couldn't help it.
