Ma Zhou has always been a good person, all the peasants think so, now every county Yazhou County will have a special yamen, called the Land Division, transfer the official heaven and earth measurement, mergers and other matters, the land system is a good thing, it stipulates that the ownerless land is the state, according to the population to the peasants, no trading, no merger, several families have folded on the land annexation of this article.

Yesterday, Ma San and several people have already rushed to the state, with Xu Boren's handwritten letters, as well as tokens, Luoyang is not far from Yixian, hurry up, go out early and arrive late, at this moment Li Chengyan and Xu Boren are sitting at Li Chengyan's house to drink, Lin Ran and Xu Boren's wife are waiting on the side.

"If the Dong family arrives this time, I'm afraid that the position in the county will give way a lot, I don't know if Brother Li has any plans to enter politics?"

Xu Boren plans to let Li Chengyan be the county undertaker, after all, with Li Chengyan's means, it is naturally not a problem to rise, he is the county magistrate of Yixian County appointed by the emperor, as long as he passes this year's political examination, promotion is a matter of time.

"Don't say goodbye, I'm just an idle cloud and wild crane, I won't feel comfortable if you tie me to that chair."

Li Chengyan raised his glass and motioned for Xu Boren to drink, drank a full glass, and said to Xu Boren, Li Chengyan is enjoying his current life very much, Lin Ran will give birth in March, and he will stay by Lin Ran's side and accompany her during this time, firstly, to satisfy the regrets of his previous life, and secondly, to experience the feeling of being a parent, even if he no longer goes out to get money, the money earned in a bare life is enough for Lin Ran and the two to eat and drink for a few lifetimes.

"Hey~ Brother Li's thoughts, or I can't wait for it, picking chrysanthemums under the east fence, leisurely seeing Nanshan, Brother Li is lofty."

The two looked at each other and smiled, everyone will have everyone's yearning, in this era of relative freedom, Li Chengyan's mind is also what many people want, but no one is willing to give up the wealth and rights in their hands, after all, if you want to idle clouds and wild cranes, you also need capital.

The wind outside the door is still whining, the northeast wind is blowing the flagpole, but the East Palace Mansion of Chang'an East Palace is as warm as spring, Yang Ting'er is sitting in Li Chengyan's study with a nine-month-old belly to settle accounts, and the old stewards of the East Palace are sitting at the bottom.

"Uncle Lin's business in Shandong has doubled compared to last year's income, and Uncle Li is even more powerful, and he has almost doubled."

After reading the account book, Yang Ting'er said to the two old people on the side, the two old men were happy, they all followed Li Chengyan from the beginning, although now Li Chengyan is no more, but after all, there is still a backbone, Yang Ting'er's words made the two old tears, this time last year, Li Chengyan opened the table, one of the shopkeepers who could come over did not fall, and more than 300 shopkeepers ate and drank in the yard, what a lively thing it was.

Yang Ting'er added a cup of tea to the two elders, and turned around to pour a cup of tea for the steward in charge of Luoyang.

"Uncle Liu is also good, Luoyang is originally a big customer, this year's tea, glass, and cement are all higher than last year, it's ~"

Yang Ting'er looked at the old man named Uncle Liu when she said this, the old man shook his head helplessly, this is already giving himself face, if Li Chengyan is here, I am afraid that he will directly scold people.

"The Dong family in Yixian County doesn't know where to get the soap, the selling price is higher than our purchase price, what do you say can we do, the same thing, we are three hundred, people are directly one hundred and fifty Wen, call people to see, the whole three big workshops, Hebei, Shandong, even Chang'an where people go to buy."

Yang Ting'er nodded, knowing that someone already knew the recipe for making soap, this is not something that can be remembered, thought seriously for a while, and said to Uncle Liu.

"I don't know much about business, but the prince said it before. Reasonable competition is only reasonable under relatively fair circumstances, I don't care about that small profit, what I care about is my child's property, which was handed over to me by his father, even if I don't have the ability to carry it forward, I have to honestly keep his things, Uncle Liu, you are an old man in the business field, I won't say much about what the prince said to you back then, two months later, I want to see results. ”

Uncle Liu nodded yes, everyone is also determined, after all, the prince's property cannot be defeated in his own hands, and after a while, Yang Ting'er took out an account book and threw it into the hands of an old man, and then said nonchalantly.

"Steward Lin, I didn't agree with my mother letting you take care of Yangzhou's business, Yangzhou City should be built strong, and my father gave me a living in my face, in order to catch up with the construction period, you violated the rules set by the prince and didn't mention it for the time being, and we didn't mention the loss of the 300,000 silver, but I want to talk to you about the fifty miscellaneous servants who have tuberculosis!"

The last sentence turned out to be yelled out, and his eyes were staring at the steward surnamed Lin, but the steward surnamed Lin was not taboo at all.

"The old slave is all for the queen's mother, if the princess has any doubts, you can tell the queen's mother, a few miscellaneous servants, even if you die, what if you die? Are there fewer people dying every year when the walls are repaired? I'm afraid the crown princess is making a big fuss. ”

"I naturally went back to the queen mother and said, since Steward Lin has done this, then I won't pursue it, and when I see my queen mother, I hope you can still say this."

As soon as Yang Ting'er finished speaking, the door was pushed open, and it was the eldest grandson queen who came in, and the eldest grandson helped Yang Ting'er, who was about to kneel, and took Yang Ting'er's hand and rubbed it gently.

"I don't pay attention to love at all, I'm about to give birth, and I'm still working so hard."

Yang Ting'er smiled when she heard this, and then glanced at the eldest grandson's belly that was bigger than herself, and the eldest grandson tapped Yang Ting'er's head, and did not speak, but said to the door.

"Drag it out, eighty rods, and expel him from the palace."

The shopkeeper surnamed Lin was about to shout, and a wooden plank was pumped on his mouth, and the words in his mouth became a "woo woo woo" sound, and the front front front teeth were knocked out, and the blood fell into their mouths.

"My son said back then, things with blood are valuable, and they can't be moved, whoever moves them will die!"

Everyone didn't take this seriously, not that they didn't agree with it, everyone except the surnamed Lin knew this truth, and they had been doing it without a little discount.
