The term "customer" is the equivalent of the resident of the place of origin, and refers to those who have moved in from other places. Some of these people are trying to escape the unbearable tendons of their places of origin; Some of them brought their families out of their hometowns because they were officials or businessmen, and over time they did not return to their hometowns. Others, for the convenience of the imperial examination, moved their household registration from the prefectures and counties where the number of places to be released was very small, to those states and counties where the number of people who were outstanding and the judges were fair and had a high rate of sending them to the imperial examination. However, such a situation is naturally a big impact on local residents.

Du Shiyi's opening, coupled with the title of Wu Guide, several scholars glanced at each other, and someone cautiously stepped forward and arched his hand and said, "Dare to ask, but the new Chengdu Commander Du Ming Mansion?" ”

"Not bad."

A few people's faces changed. Although Du Shiyi, the Chengdu Order, it stands to reason that he may not be able to preside over the Yizhou examination, and some of them have already been recommended and plan to enter Beijing to apply for the system. But if you hurt the new parents in the county for no reason, it's not always a good thing.

So, the scholar who had just squeezed the most fierce people saw that the others were silently two steps away from him, he couldn't help crying without tears, and after thinking quickly, he turned his heart and said: "Ming Gong, the student is not because he has no dignity in his mind, he blames others, it is really Yuwen Zhongcheng's new policy, and it is too unfair to us and other locals."

Since he started up, he said in an aggravated tone: "These customers originally escaped the rent and the local tax, and they came from their original place to the current residence, but the imperial court exempted them from paying taxes for several years, and acquiesced in their occupation of the land. Isn't this cycle getting worse and worse? ”

Seeing that this person showed a little excitement after speaking, as if he had let go, Du Shiyi couldn't help but glance at Li Bai again, but saw him standing with his hands as if he had nothing to do with himself, until he noticed his gaze, and then said lightly: "You don't need to attribute all the disputes just now to the word customer." I'm not here to solve the test next year, and second, not to submit a letter to the powerful, but I plan to take a good look at this Jincheng, and you yourself have to move out of the old things to blame customers...... Hehe, you might as well ask yourself, which of you has served in the family service? Not all of you are locals, and there have always been a lot of people in Shu who are exempt from servitude. ”

Li Bai's words suddenly washed away the atmosphere of the scholar's heartache and generosity just now. Seeing that Du Shiyi frowned thoughtfully, several scholars suddenly showed a little embarrassment. For a while, none of them had the intention of staying here longer, so they reluctantly said hello to Du Shiyi and left in a hurry. As soon as this group of people left, Du Shiyi beckoned Wu Guide to come closer, but asked bluntly: "What was the dispute just now?" ”

Wu Gui didn't expect Li Bai to scare everyone away with a single sentence, and the grievance suddenly turned into happiness. As soon as Du Shiyi asked, he said as if pouring beans into a bamboo tube: "It's not rumored that Yuwen Zhongcheng will give those customers a preferential treatment when he returns to Chengdu, that is, to allow the customer's children to participate in the tribute." This was originally just a rumor, and I don't know how these people believed it. Because a few years ago, when Li Twelve went to Chengdu to pay homage to Su Envoy, he used to be quite famous, and everyone knew that he was not from Shuzhong, so they spoke coldly at him. It's no wonder that Shu County has not had any real talents in the past two years, all of them are squeezed out by such rats."

That's what you say. Du Shiyi naturally didn't really believe this, but the conflict between the locals and the customers can be clearly seen from this. When he was hesitating, he only heard a voice of Lang Jun behind him, but the servant who had just been sent to investigate had rushed back, and after standing on his side, he was the original local general Yu Wenrong had arrived in Lizhou, and along the way, he made drastic efforts to persuade farmers to help Sang, and then cleaned up the prison, forgave customers, and cracked down on local heroes...... If all kinds of people report to him, he will further understand the origin of these disputes.

"Plus the previous time, there was Lao Du Langjun who helped me out of the siege twice" Li Bai arched his hand, but said with a hearty smile, "These dogs don't have to take it to heart, God is jealous of talents, people are even more jealous of talents, if they are depressed because they only say a few words, then there is no need to pass it, but Du Langjun is here today, shouldn't it be really a coincidence?" ”

"It was I who asked the two to go to the hostel where the two of you stayed and asked, but I learned that you came to Zhang Yilou, and I was new to Chengdu, so I came here to take a look, and I bumped into such a thing." Du Shiyi paused for a moment, thought for a moment and then said, "I am new to Chengdu, and I am not very familiar with the customs and customs of Chengdu. I don't know if you have time recently, if you can, I would like to ask you to lead me to take a quiet walk around the townships and villages under the jurisdiction of Chengdu County. ”

It may not be surprising that the new official first paid a private visit to the new official in later generations, but now few officials have observed the people's situation as soon as they take office, so Li Bai and Wu Guide couldn't help but be stunned when they heard it. The latter hated those local rich families who took advantage of themselves but still excluded others, and immediately agreed without thinking about it. And Li Bai looked at Du Shiyi with some surprise, and only after a long time did he smile dumbly: "It's a trivial matter, don't talk about it, although many places outside Chengdu are not easy to walk, but there are splendid landscapes, let's talk about compensating for Du Langjun's hard work in his new appointment."

After Du Shiyi met Zhang Jiazhen at the beginning of his tenure and was blocked, he actually took two guards and went out of Chengdu City for a private visit. For a while, the few subordinate officials of the county party who were willing to compete or embarrass him were like accumulating a punch on the silk cotton ball, and they couldn't exert any strength, and their bodies were empty and extremely uncomfortable.

Moreover, they didn't mention that Yu Wenrong was about to come to Chengdu County, Du Shiyi pretended not to know, and before leaving, he didn't even give an order how to greet him, etc., and there was no county order to be the big shopkeeper, so they were miserable, and they didn't see Du Shiyi come back for two days in a row, but they learned that Yu Wenrong had arrived in Mianzhou, and as soon as a few people met, they immediately began to rush to work on a matter

And Du Shiyi rode a horse in the townships under the jurisdiction of Chengdu for seven days. Even so, because many of the roads were even difficult to ride on horseback, he only walked a very small number of villages that were not the most remote. Li Bai and Wu Gui paid more attention to the mountains and rivers along the road, and after all, he didn't have that kind of leisure, disguised passers-by asked the villages and villages, and the number of customers, although he had not yet read the file of the county party, was enough ⊥to surprise him. But after Li Bai, a customer, and Wu Guide, a native of Shuzhong, were accustomed to this.

"Bashu is close to the Western Regions, and now there are often large and small wars in the Western Regions, when the Queen of Heaven and Zhongzong went out to avoid disasters in the Western Regions, they have come back one after another over the years, far away from the Central Plains, and the stable and rich Bashu is naturally the first choice. However, most of the fields near Chengdu are ownerless, and there are very few abandoned fields. Because tea trees can be planted in mountainous areas and do not occupy flat land, there were many left, but now there are not many such hills. As for the ordinary homeless people who evade the rent and land tax, most of them are domestic servants or tenants, and this is even more numerous. ”

As a local, Wu Guide said this, and Du Shiyi had a deeper understanding. Along the way, he made a record all the way, because Li Bai and Wu Guide only had a little boy with them, and he only had two guards, it looked as if he was looking for a good scenery everywhere, a rich man who was rich and free, and there were people who tried to rob the road without long eyes, but Du Shiyi's two guards didn't find a chance to make a move, so they were beaten and fled by Li Bai with a few swords. Afterwards, Du Shiyi also asked Li Bai with great interest where he learned the sword, and when he learned that it was Zhao Rui, a famous man from Zizhou, he couldn't help rubbing his chin.

"General Pei's swordsmanship in the Eastern Capital is the best in the world, and the mourning period should expire, when Li Shishilang visits the Eastern Capital, you might as well go and visit with your talent, General Pei's mantle is a successor."

Tiangong Temple Sword Saint Painting Saint Grass Saint gathered, King Qin's war drum appeared, leaving a three-way wall, this matter has spread all over the country in two years, but now go to Tiangong Temple, the masterpiece left by the Grass Saint Painting Saint is like on the wall, General Pei is full of momentum but has no chance to see it. Therefore, Du Shiyi said that Li Baideng came to the god of jīng, and after repeatedly asking Pei Guo's residence, he was overjoyed and looked deeply: "What I like, poetry, wine and sword, only these three." If you can really ask General Pei Guo to give you a sword, it is because of Du Jiulang's words."

"Haha, when your swordsmanship is completed, I am also very interested in watching your Qinglian Sword Song

At this moment, Du Shiyi just said it casually, but Li Bai was greatly amazed by the name of his swordsmanship, and even after the swordsmanship was completed, he really applied it to reality, which is a later story.

Customers, villages, acres, water conservancy, boats, bridges, ...... Especially when Du Shiyi learned that a Pang County Commander in his previous terms was a good official who was quite pragmatic and loved the people. Originally, he planned to set up a pond in a place north of Chengdu to irrigate people's fields, but he was too upright, offended his boss, and was crowded out by large households, and finally failed. And even earlier, someone proposed to repair the official canal that had been abandoned before, but in the end, it was also unsuccessful, and he couldn't help but have an idea in his heart.

When Du Shiyi, who was in the dust, returned to Chengdu County, he had already accumulated a thick volume of codex. However, he entered the city from the west gate Zhang Yi downstairs, said goodbye to Li Baiwu first, and took two guards along the street that ran through the east and west to Tongmingfang, where the county party was located, but found that the loess mat road in front of him, the people were gathered on both sides of the road, and ordered people to come forward to inquire, only to learn that Chengyu Wenrong had arrived in Chengdu City in the imperial history, and had just entered Tongmingfang.

In just three years, from the supervision of the imperial history on the eighth grade, all the way to the imperial history of the fifth grade, especially at the beginning of this year, from the military department member and servant of the imperial history to the imperial history of the middle of the Cheng, Yu Wenrong finally completed the huge leap that is absolutely unattainable for ordinary people on the official career. As the sesame seeds of his official position blossomed and grew, he was even more accustomed to words during his external inspections, and his eyebrows were a little more powerful and powerful than before. At this moment, the Chengdu County Party went from the county magistrate to the county lieutenant, and he was silent in front of him, but when he asked Du Shiyi again, the county lieutenant Wang Ming sneered.

"It has been ** days since Du Mingfu took office, and it has only been the first day or two since he showed up in the county party, if he doesn't come back, I can only go to the Yizhou Metropolitan Governor's Mansion to make Zhang Envoy Jun."

As soon as the words fell, a voice came from outside: "Yuwen Zhongcheng, Du Mingfu is back"
