For Mr. Li's additional contributions, Wu Tao did not hesitate to praise him; "What Mr. Li did was really a stroke of genius, originally we had to give up some money every year, so that those pole cottages would not provoke our base area, but after Mr. Li's arrangement, it was still those property, so that all the cottages have become the peripheral strength of our cottages, and reserved a huge space for us to deal with the encirclement and suppression of the official army, admire and admire."

Chen Ce raised his head at this time, moved his sore neck, and his face was full; "Mr. Li is indeed right this time, King Chuang is compassionate and compassionate, and the Bodhisattva is heartfelt, but we can't, we must do every penny of the cottage as ten wen to spend, in order to be worthy of the hard work of the king of Chuang, since we want to fund those cottages, we must get the rewards of those cottages, or what do we do to raise them these moths? Mr. Li did this, not only let these cottages not eat us in vain, but also reduce the burden on the cottages, increase some income to strengthen our strength, and at the same time add the strength of protection to the periphery of our current base area centered on Caojiaji, so that we can develop in this base area with peace of mind and save expenses. ”

Everyone just nodded their heads.

"But after all, this has not been approved by King Chuang, nor has it been discussed and approved at the base area meeting, it is a method for us to cut first and then play, this wind cannot rise, this law is not feasible, everything must be reported to the military advisor for approval." Wu Tao frowned and said solemnly.

This is a matter of principle, if everyone thinks that they are doing the right thing and is so arbitrary, then there will slowly appear that they will not be subject to the orders of foreign monarchs, and then develop into a force outside the cottage, which Wu Tao does not want to see and does not want to see.

Chen Ce felt that what Wu Tao said was very right, although it seemed that Lu Shi didn't care very much, but it didn't mean that everyone could do whatever they wanted in the future, this time Mr. Li's method was good, although when he reported to himself later, he also got the approval of his own person in charge of government affairs, but it can't be like this. In the entire base area, it is still King Chuang who has the final say.

Mr. Li understood it at one point, and said solemnly at the moment; "Obey the teachings of the military teacher, and I am also anxious to make meritorious contributions to the cottage, and I will not dare to commit it next time." Orr's eyes turned; "Actually, Administrative Officer Chen and Wu Junshi have already obtained the arbitrary power of King Chuang, I am just a subordinate of the military division, and I just respect Zhang to do things, if the matter has to be approved by King Chuang this time, then the administrative officer and military division will bear the great credit."

The third uncle stroked his beard and nodded, in fact, he knew that this was all because of the hearts of these hot-blooded men who worked hard for the development of the cottage, and everyone had no selfishness, whether it would be like this in the future was a matter of the future. The future will be talked about in the future, and King Chuang will solve it. He had a lot of faith in this son.

"Besides." Mr. Li said slyly; "Since the government officials and military advisors can achieve great merit and have nothing to do with the people under them, once this method is not approved by the king, then the government officials and military advisors must have the consciousness of carrying the black cauldron."

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then burst into laughter.

Scholars are cunning, but this method is no better for cottages, how can Lu Shi not pass? Although there was a mistake of being arbitrary, I remembered the hardships of Mr. Li's single entry into the tiger's den in Longtan, and all kinds of dangers, all of which were admired.

Wu Tao stood up again and said; "Mr. Li is hard."

Just this sentence of hard work made Mr. Li's eyes hot, and he gave up laughing and plastic surgery; "For the sake of these brothers on the cottage, for the future prosperity of the cottage, and for the beautiful world of the king, what about a little suffering? I just don't want to do nothing in this life. ”

There were people in the hall who were speechless for a while.

Manly man, which one is really willing to die in the forest of old age and inaction? Mr. Li is expressing the thoughts of Wu Tao, Chen Ce and others.

This matter passed like this for the time being, and Chen Ce began to ask Mr. Li about the settlement of Luochuan County; "I don't know if Mr. Li's trip to Luochuan County is going well?"

When Chen Ce asked Mr. Li how proud he was, Mr. Li couldn't help laughing; "Just those fools who have been scared down, where do you need those tongues? A few clicks are good. At the moment, he talked endlessly about the process of his Luochuan trip.

But it turned out that on this day, the Luochuan county magistrate was sitting in the city and coughed and sighed, and now the county magistrate has become an idler, and the people who are roaring outside the city are the intruders, and there are the people who are bustling with the support of the thieves.

This year's tax payment is finally done, but what about next year? What about the year after tomorrow? If it goes on like this, there is no hope, there are no crops growing in this city, and those rich merchants cannot be offended individually, it seems that this county order is going to come to an end, either they will be starved to death, or they will not be able to complete the emperor's grain tax and be taken down by the peak.

The worst thing is that those merchants come to the yamen every day to make trouble, clamoring to open the city gate.

It is also forced to be helpless, if you don't open the city gate, then even firewood in the city has become a problem, not to mention the food and general merchandise that the citizens urgently need, but the thieves and bandits like a flood of beasts are outside the city, once the city gate is opened, a robber who is not good to mix in and break into the thief breaks the county, it is even more of a head-off thing.

Fortunately, after many days, there was not a shadow of a thief outside the city, only bustling untouchables, clamoring to drag money into the city to purchase, which somewhat made the county lord and the thousand households settle down.

This morning, the city gate was opened, but many family officials were closely guarded, and by the way, they also collected some city gate taxes to live, but they saw countless poor people flocking in, each like a nouveau riche in various shops to purchase, very much so that the guards of the gate collected a large amount of taxes, and the rich merchants made a lot of money, so that the already lifeless Luochuan county turned out to be deformed and prosperous.

Everyone wonders how the poor and the poor who have no way to live suddenly become rich? After inquiring carefully, it turned out that the thief not only gave personal food, but also gave each person two taels of silver to live, this is really the first time in the world, the county order is secretly happy to receive a large amount of taxes at the same time more worried, this thief is not small.

But what if you knew? Report it, that is, to be happy with your future, although the current situation is not good, but I am really reluctant to wear this official robe, then open your eyes and close your eyes, as long as there is now a tax of silver and copper coins to be taken, you will be content, where to care about the things after that, those things are the affairs of the court boss and the governor of the capital.

Sometimes when the two of them sit alone, they secretly hope that the thieves can scatter more money, which will be good for everyone.

On this day, there is a master to report, and there is Mr. Li, a Jinshi in Shanxi Tianqi Year, whose name is Wenzhong. Master Li, who has a far-reaching word, asks to see.

The county lord was stunned, this army is in chaos, how did a Jinshi get here? But since it was the master of Jinshi who came, of course he had to see it, and he told the master to invite him at the moment.

The county lord turned over and looked at the name of the person who came, and the name of the person who came said Li Wenzhong, the word Hongyuan, the person from Linfen, Shanxi, the fourth year of the Apocalypse and the first, and some other names, at the bottom is a big Shanxi edict seal.

The county smiled helplessly, I can't say that this must be a tour to learn this, and there is no entangled scholar to fight the autumn wind, but in the three hundred years of the Ming Dynasty, the most important thing is these scholars, not to mention that in the late Ming Dynasty, those cold doors can not get the Jinshi and the first, and the Jinshi must be either rich and noble or an official eunuch family, but in this context it is slow to wait, and deal with it, today at noon, I still got a lot of city gate taxes, take some with him. Just as he was thinking about it, he saw that the master respectfully brought in a richly dressed scholar who was pacing square steps, and his arrogant and graceful expression revealed the unusual background. When the county leader saw it, he immediately got up and arched his hand; "I don't know that Mr. Li came to Xiaoya, and he missed the distance, forgive his sins."

When Li Wenzhong saw that the county dignitary in an official uniform stood up to greet him in person, he also accepted his arrogance, smiled and returned the salute; "The county's old parents, Li Wenzhong and Li Hongyuan at the end of school will see the county's old parents." After saying that, he bowed deeply, and the county lord hurriedly stepped forward to grab Li Wenzhong's arms, and said with a smile, "They are all saint disciples, where are these false gifts?" Come on, please take a seat. "In that era, the famous one was not guilty and not punished when he saw the official, and he was favored by the court, so Li Wenzhong also got up, the guest and the host politely found a seat and sat down in accordance with the rules, and there was a small servant serving tea, and the guest and the host humbly gave each other a shallow taste, and put down the tea bowl that Mr. Li first gave up his hand to report that he was born in the family, which is the proper meaning of officialdom, and then he turned over the cabinet to find the origin, and found out that Li Wenzhong's father and this county were the same year and the same year, and worshiped the same teacher and sat down, that is, the same classmate, Of course, one in Jiangnan and one in Shaanxi can't beat a little eight poles, but this can't delay their closeness, which is also a must in the officialdom, officials and scholars from all over the world climb each other in the same year, and they can take care of each other in the officialdom in the future. In this way, Li Wenzhong still wants to call the county respect, of course, Li Wenzhong will not give up such a good opportunity to get closer, he put down a set of top hats, and then the county lord began to tout some of Li Wenzhong's knowledge and talents, looking for some sage teachings in the pile of old papers, and then touting the excellence of the other party's sage articles again, etc.
