When there is something to do, then time starts to seem running out of time. After a busy day, it seems that when you open your eyes, in the blink of an eye, the sun sets in a blink of an eye.

"I remember that we went north after the Lantern Festival, right?" Liu Tao leaned on the soft collapse, enjoying Ren Hongchang's massage. This Nizi learned a hand of massage skills in the palace, and the soothing effect is not much, and the provocative meaning is stronger.

The slender jade hands are as soft as bones, like a light yarn brushing on the body, which is more sultry.

So Liu Tao also took the opportunity to get up and down his hands and rubbed some oil, Xiao Nizi just blushed and was faintly more energetic.

Hearing Liu Tao's inquiry, he slowed down slightly, thought about it, and replied, "Back to the young master, this is indeed the case." We walked from Luoyang to Yunzhong for more than ten days and rested for two days. Stabilized in the clouds, it was already the beginning of February. ”

The beginning of February is the lunar calendar, which translates to about March of the Gregorian calendar. It is said that spring ploughing can already begin, but in places like Yunzhong, it should be better to plow in March and April...... No wonder I think there's something wrong with these fields.

Cultivating tools is a problem, too early cultivation is also a problem, and not deep ploughing means that the eggs are not completely killed, and it is difficult to say whether there will be locust plagues...... Anyway, before the locusts appeared, they began to think about this, but in fact, there was no need.

After all, if I remember correctly, there seems to be no locust plague this year!

From the beginning of the reform, organize manual dredging, and give lessons to those Hu people who were tested. In the blink of an eye, a month has passed.

This month, he gave the field a 'gift of the earth dragon' every three days, and the result is needless to say, the crops of 20 days have reached the level of two months, depending on the situation, in mid-April, they can almost be harvested, and it is completely open.

As it turns out, this magic is a bug when it comes to farming, as long as there is enough mana. The most helpless thing is that he is currently the only one in the world.

The clouds are surrounded by plains, which means that there is no minerals or forestry, and there is no place to quarry. The county said that Wujin is surrounded by mountains, and there used to be forest farms and quarries, but now there is no government there......

Basically, it's a group of 'naturalized' Hu people, entrenched there, self-sufficient. According to the custom in Xianbei, they elected a leading person, called the 'county magistrate', and then elected several more people to complete the officials.

Wujin, Chengle and Xianyang, the situation in the three counties is actually like this. Those who can move to the Han have already moved, and it is unknown whether these Hu people are naturalized or not.

"Seeing that it will be two months since starting from Luoyang......," Liu Tao got up, "You say, should I solve the water conservancy problem first, or stabilize the security of Yunzhong County first?" ”

"Slaves and maids are just maids, how can such a military affair interfere at will?" Ren Hongchang was directly taken aback. This thing can't be touched indiscriminately, especially those scholars, who will be suppressed with 'Ji Si Chen' at every turn.

"It's nothing, just talk casually between master and servant. Besides, with your identity, theoretically in two years, you will also be accepted, this back house, there must always be an individual, right? Liu Tao pinched her pretty face and said with a smile.

"Young master, this is a slave and maid......" Although Ren Hongchang was terrified, he had a trace of sweetness in his heart. was rewarded to Liu Tao by the Han Emperor, but he never touched himself. Considering that both of her sisters had been given away, she was worried that she would be the same.

"Well, I won't embarrass you...... I'll discuss this with them before making a decision. Liu Tao said casually, "Go on...... Also, don't make small gestures. ”

"Yes......" Ren Hongchang had already changed his gesture to massage, and sure enough, the soothing effect was much better than just now. Liu Tao only felt that the fatigue of the day had been well relieved.

At this moment, he is closing his eyes and recuperating, but he is still thinking about the affairs of these three counties in his heart.

What really bothered him was that the three counties would still pay full taxes every year and pay them according to Han standards. At the same time, the strong men in the three counties are not subject to forced labor, which is also the most worthy of criticism.

According to the Han law, or according to custom, the taxes they had to pay should also be appropriately raised. At present, the feeling given to him by the three counties is more like using taxes to teach 'protection fees', which is a bit of autonomy.

It is a pity that he has not yet granted a certain place the right to self-government, and it is estimated that the entire Han people do not agree with this system. Now he is not a prince, and he must keep a low profile.

There's also the problem that he doesn't have anyone in his hands. I sent someone to Yingchuan to look for a batch, but there has been no reply so far. Including Yan Liangwen and Chou, there has been no news from these two goods, and Liu Tao has almost given up.

Where this bird doesn't, there are very few scribes, and the scribes under Liu Tao's current command can make up enough for the officials of the three counties.

Especially in Jiling County, the old county Cheng, he finally promoted him...... As a result, the product was overjoyed, or the deepest desire in his heart had been satisfied, so he passed away within two days of taking office.

It is necessary to arrange another subordinate to go over, and it is not called the county order, and the county magistrate is set up according to the county, and the county is not set up separately. In the end, there is a big rear, there are no hidden dangers, and there is no need for so many manpower.

The next day, according to the routine, I performed the 'Gift of the Earth Dragon', and today the effect just disappeared.

After the spell was cast, he summoned all his subordinates and told them about yesterday's problem.

"Hey, what's so troublesome, I'll lead the troops over directly, and it's flat!" When Zhang Fei heard this, he felt that his brother was making a fuss, what was there to be afraid of these naturalized Hu people.

"Spring ploughing has been completed, and the people have begun to devote themselves to dredging. Our soldiers are empty and ready to go into battle. Lu Yan replied, "It's just that how to fight and to what extent you fight still needs to be discussed." ”

"How else can you fight, just fight!" Zhang Fei retorted, "I didn't know before I came, I thought that on the front line, I would have to face Xianbei's southward movement at any time." As a result, when I came here, I found that the huge Yunzhong County was surrounded by mountains, and it was difficult for the Xianbei people to go south. ”

I suddenly understood why the soldiers were all placed in Yanmen and Wuyuan, because if you go south, you can't get around these two places.

"Do you all think that Xianbei can only make a detour to Wuyuan, or come over Yanmen?" Liu Tao looked at everyone suspiciously.

Everyone also looked at Liu Tao suspiciously, isn't that the secret way?!

"I can only say that you ......don't know enough about Xianbei," Liu Tao complained, "Although Xianbei is also nomadic, it is completely different from the Xiongnu in nature. They originally lived in the mountains and forests, and the horses were more used as a substitute for transportation and to deal with grassland warfare. ”

I don't know if it's not, I only know that Xianbei originated from the Great Xing'an Mountains, and there are at least several generations, or even more than ten generations, living in the mountains and forests. They may be excellent hunters and warriors, but they are definitely not the kind of people who grew up on horseback like the Huns.

Perhaps, closer to Houjin. It is claimed to be good at riding and shooting, but in fact riding and shooting are separate. It's just that he later took over the territory of the Huns and multiplied for several generations, and now his riding skills should have improved a lot, but the ancestors' abilities should not be forgotten.

"Xianbei goes south, and the mountains and forests can't stop them at all." Liu Tao looked at everyone, "but it will cover our eyes......"
