Wang Zang and Duan Zhong glanced at him with a dark face and ignored him, but Qin Kun laughed and looked at Bai Jian with great interest.

Riding a donkey, but said that it was a horse, and his clothes were patched, but he was not embarrassed at all when he came late, and he knew at a glance that this kid was more shameless than him.

"Interesting. ”

Li Qingyun, who was on the city tower, saw this scene and couldn't hold back his laughter.

It seems that the last one of the finale is a bit maverick, people ride horses and carriages, and he comes over on a donkey, yes, quite can, but this donkey is quite fast.

"Now that we're all here, let's go in. ”

Wang Zang glanced at Bai Jian with a little disgust, and spoke.

However, Qin Kun and Duan Zhong didn't seem to hear him speak, they didn't move, Wang Zang was bored, and consciously closed his mouth.

"Let's go, what are you doing in a daze?"

Shirakane handed the reins to the person next to him and walked over.

However, no one moved, and even a few people in the carriage were still sitting and did not come out.

"If you don't go, I'll go. ”

Shirakan gave them a very strange look, and walked towards the city gate.

As a result, before he could get close, he was stopped by the soldiers of the Molin Army on duty.

Bai Jian said with a smiling face: "Brothers, I am the city lord of Lingxian City, not a bad person. ”

"I don't care who you are, no one is allowed to enter without the orders of the Patrolman. ”

The soldiers of the Mo Lin Army looked at Bai Jian expressionlessly, and said without a trace of emotion.

Bai Jian was stunned for a moment, turned around silently, and walked to Wang Zang and the others.

"Little brother, don't you see it yet? Everyone didn't move, just because the Patrolman hadn't summoned him yet. ”

Qin Kun patted Bai Jian on the shoulder and reminded him very kindly.

The new official took office three times, not to mention that this patrol lord is still a major general of the General's Mansion, although he is not very old, but his reputation is not small.

Although the gates of the city were wide open, and it was true that the guards asked them to come, this patrol city was not something they could enter if they wanted to.

As for the hard break, didn't you see the military camp not far away? Just these people are not enough for the Mo Lin army to kill back and forth.

"If I had known, I would have been a little late, and I still wouldn't be able to get in if I came early. ”

Bai Jian, who came late, sighed, a little helpless.

On the city tower, Li Qingyun was still watching these people, even if everyone was there, he didn't order them to be let in.

Although this move is a bit suspicious, but he is the patrol of this place, he said that he can't enter, these people have to wait, as a patrol, he can still put this point on the score.

After waiting for a while, the deputy commander of the left walked down slowly, glanced at Bai Jian and them, and shouted, "Please enter the city!"

As soon as the words fell, the rest of the city lords in the carriage jumped down at the same time and walked towards the patrol city regardless of front and back.

"Let's go. Qin Kun smiled and raised his heels.

Now that the time has come, on both sides of the school field in the city, there are 50,000 Mo Lin troops and 50,000 Ping Xiao troops standing distinctly, listening to the lectures of their respective commanders.

Seeing this scene, Bai Jian and the others were a little emotional, this patrolman deserved to be a major general, and his shot was magnanimous, and both sides were world-famous iron armies.

Especially the 50,000 Mo Lin soldiers in black armor, compared with them, the soldiers under their command are similar to tofu scum.

The deputy commander of the left led the way in front, and his footsteps were very slow, and he walked for half an hour before he reached the front of the main hall, and then stopped.

"Come in, Captain, you're waiting for you. ”

"Thank you. ”

All the city lords thanked them in unison, they were all from the Yaocheng General's Mansion, no matter how the patrol lord was, they still admired this iron-blooded army that won all battles.

"You're welcome. The Left Deputy Commander nodded, then turned and left.

"Let's go. ”

Bai Jian glanced back, and just turned around, only to find that the rest of the people were already walking towards the main hall.

"Gan!" scolded in a low voice, and Bai Jian followed.

In the main hall, Li Qingyun, who was the patrol of the Northland, was standing in front of a wide chair covered with a blanket, looking at the map of the Northland on the table, his brows furrowed.

On both sides of the chair, Xu Jiayin and Yu stood respectively.

"It's not young. ”

Qin Kun was a little surprised, Li Qingyun was not very old, and they knew it, but the eyebrows of the person in front of him were slightly vicissitudes, and he didn't look like a person in his early twenties. For the Honored Academy

Cultivators don't look at people's faces, after all, there is aura, and they can't see anything on the surface, and they mainly look at their eyes to see how old a person is.

"Lord Patrolman. ”

The rest of the city lords had already bowed down to salute, and Qin Kun pulled Bai Jian, who was still stunned, and hurriedly bent down.

"Well, let's sit down first. Li Qingyun said without raising his head.

"Thank you, Patrolman. ”

Then the people dispersed and sat down on the chairs on either side.

Li Qingyun looked at the map for a while before taking a sip of tea, sitting on the chair, and looking at the city lords.

There were ten people in total, all of whom were not young, and two of them even had gray hair, and the most conspicuous of them was Bai Kan, who was sitting on the chair on the right.

"Bai City Lord, you are quite interesting, you came here wearing such a dress?" Li Qingyun looked at Bai Jian with interest and asked with a smile.

This donkey rider, he saw it on the city tower, but he didn't expect this kid to be so bold, and he came in a tattered shirt.

"My lord, my subordinates are poor, and there is no way to dress like this, don't you know, my Lingxian City is a small place, poor jingling, in order to let the people live a good life, I even folded it in. ”

Shirakan said as he wiped his tears.

"Oh, how did I hear that the fairy lotus in your Spirit Immortal City has grown well in recent years?" Li Qingyun asked with a smile.

Lingxian City is rich in an elixir, called Fairy Lotus, but this elixir does not grow in water, but takes root in a special land.

It blooms in summer and bears fruit in winter every year, although it is not a strange shortage, but it is an indispensable taste for making elixir.

As for why Bai Jian is dressed like this, and why the City Lord's Mansion is so broken, Li Qingyun also asked.

This Bai Jian does not live in the city lord's mansion, but takes the soldiers under his command to guard the place where the fairy lotus is specially planted, and often works in the field, and the clothes naturally do not need to be brightly dressed, which can be regarded as an alternative to the northern land.

"It's all fake, you can see how miserable it is when you look at the patches on your subordinates. Bai Jian looked at Li Qingyun with a bitter face and said miserably.

"Don't talk about it, don't think I don't know, you can pick the door yourself, but the annual tax can't be less, as for the previous years......"

Li Qingyun glared at Bai Jian, the taxes of the Yaocheng General's Mansion were actually not heavy, and the ordinary people were even less than negligible, mainly relying on the merchants who traveled to and from various cities, as well as the restaurants and inns in the city.

In fact, the cities did not pay taxes for two years from the time they were first built, but in the next three years, they did not collect much, and it was not until last year that they returned to half of their normal values.

Normally, each city needs to pay all the taxes it receives, and the patrol will allocate it uniformly for the development of the city and the payment of officials.

As for the surplus, it is used to build official roads and improve the lives of the people, which is also more beneficial to the Northland.

In the past few years, there was no patrol, so the taxes were kept by the city lords of each city, but since Li Qingyun came, it had to return to normal.

"In the future, the annual taxes will be sent by the cities, as for the previous years......" Li Qingyun looked at the city lords who had raised their throats in their hearts, and said with a smile, "I won't ask you for it, this matter is over, do you have any opinions?"

The tax must not be used up, otherwise many cities will not continue to expand outward, and as for whether the city lords have filled their pockets, he doesn't care for the time being.

What Li Qingyun thinks is that the main problem now lies in the ordinary people, without them, it is impossible for the northern land to really recover its vitality.

"Of course I don't have a problem. ”

"The Patrolman said it well. ”

......

Before, they took a little bit of it, but Li Qingyun meant that he was not to blame for the past, how could these people not understand such a good thing?

"Okay, let's talk about the other things. ”

Li Qingyun nodded with satisfaction, clapped his hands, and Xu Jiayin showed a little aura and nailed the map to the wall.

"This place is the city where your city lords are, and I walked through this seat a few days ago, and I found that you are actually doing quite well. ”

Li Qingyun pointed to the map and said,

"However, the official road between the cities is too narrow, such as Lanjiang City is the convergence of the Beidi waterway, many places do not need to use the official road, but there are many people outside Lanjiang City, but the official road is uneven, and some places do not even have it. ”

He didn't keep walking along the official road, but also looked at the rest of the place, and the roads in some villages, which were still opened by those farmers, were quite muddy and not suitable for the transportation of grain.

"Don't worry, my lord, my subordinates will start building it. ”

was named in public, Wang Zang did not show any unhappiness, but accepted it with a smile.

Li Qingyun nodded, and then said: "Of course, I'm not just talking about Lanjiang City, just an example, you all have to pay attention, especially Jinyan City, which needs to buy grain from other cities, in this regard, you must do a good job." ”

The price of grain in Jinyan City is quite high, and the most ordinary corn is more than five cents, he already knows this, and even knows that Qin Kun gave an order when he came to let the rice shop lower the price.

However, Li Qingyun didn't mean to blame him in public, after all, transportation also needs costs, which can be talked about later.

"Subordinates must pay attention. Qin Kun hurriedly responded.

He originally thought that Li Qingyun shouldn't understand this, and the private interview with Weifu was just a formality, hiding the past, and letting him see what he wanted to see.

Unexpectedly, Li Qingyun actually found out, it seems that this patrol is not a mallet.
