As the only prince of the Great Zhou so far, or Zhou Zheng has been aiming to be a native old wealth since he became the king of Qi, as the first priority of the new generation of native wealth is to understand the Qi County under his rule, this task has been carried out from the beginning, and it takes a certain amount of time to recount the land and population, and there is no shortage of time for Zhou Zheng.

No less than dozens of waves of small thieves folded in Zhou Zheng's yard, everyone knows that there must be a master in this yard, every morning you can see a red-faced bearded man dragging a rope out, and a circle of black-clothed people is buckled on the rope is also a unique scenery in Qi County these days.

"Lord Wang, the Fei County Order of Qi County seems to have something to find the prince." Ye Da, the housekeeper of the palace, said.

In the short period of time after becoming the prince, there is no palace for Ye Da to manage, and the establishment of the palace in Qi County outside the county has not yet been completed, so at this moment, Zhou Zheng's so-called palace is just to buy several large courtyards in Qi County, and connect them together as a temporary place to stay.

"Fei Zhong, I know, let him in." Hearing Fei Zhong come to visit him, Zhou Zheng basically knew why, and as soon as he arrived in Qi County, he ordered Fei Zhong to count the specific situation of Qi County and hand it over to himself, and now these things must be counted well.

After Zhou Zheng arrived in the living room, Fei Zhong had already put a similar account book on the chair, and as soon as he entered the living room, Fei Zhong saw His Royal Highness King Qi, and immediately asked Zhou Zheng for peace.

"Subordinate Fei Zhong has seen His Royal Highness King Qi." Speaking of which, Qishan and Qi County are now Zhou Zheng's fiefdoms, and Fei Zhong, the county order that was originally responsible to the imperial court, has also been responsible to Zhou Zheng.

After saying hello, Zhou Zheng didn't say any nonsense, and went straight to the point: "Fei County's order, but the current situation in this county has been counted?" As soon as he finished speaking, Fei Zhong sent the account book in his hand over.

"The subordinates came this time to send the statistical results to His Highness." As soon as he took over the ledger, the system prompt in Zhou Zheng's mind suddenly sounded.

"Ding Dong, Qi County first understands that the task has been completed, and the summoning points in the reward distribution are five hundred points."

Five hundred points is also a piece of meat for Zhou Zheng, more or less a little, and after skimming the task, Zhou Zheng looked at the account book at a glance and ten lines.

The main reason why Qi County belongs to Shang County in Da Zhou is that it is close to Qishan, although there are only 3,712 households that are considered the population of Zhong County, but there is a lot of land, on average, each family has dozens of acres of fields, plus the land is fertile, more than the harvest in other places, so it has become Shang County, the land is more, the fertility of the soil is good, and the family does not have to worry about eating and drinking.

There are 3,712 households in Qi County, a total of 15,672 people, some of whom are not local populations, and if you add up these people from other places, there are more than 20,000 people, and the officials registered in the city are five people, including Fei Zhong, the county governor, the county magistrate, and the warden.

Below are 120 soldiers who are in charge of public security, 2,800 acres of vacant official land, and more than 10,000 kilograms of grain stored in the official warehouse.

There are seven villages in the surrounding area, scattered throughout the suburbs of Qi County like an acropolis, and the water source for irrigation of farmland outside the city comes mainly from a small river flowing from the Qishan Mountains and a river flowing through Qi County.

After reading the account book sent by Fei Zhong, Zhou Zheng has a spectrum of Qi County, Qi County mainly relies on agriculture to maintain the lives of the people, relying on a small river flowing out of Qi Mountain and a tributary of the Feng River through Qi County, the two rivers ensure that the people of Qi County do not need to worry about the irrigation of the fields, good water resources and fertile land make Qi County called the land of fish and rice.

"Yes, these are counted in such a short period of time, it seems that Fei County's ability is still commendable." After reading the account book, Zhou Zheng smiled.

After listening to Zhou Zheng's words, Fei Zhong was also happy in his heart, and this statistics left a good impression on His Royal Highness King Qi, which was extremely useful to Fei Zhong, and then said with a smile: "It is what subordinates should do to serve His Highness, but His Highness still needs His Highness's approval for one thing." ”

"What?"

"Back to Your Highness, although the construction of the palace has been sent by the Great Sikong to participate, but the cost of recruiting migrant workers has not been involved in the court, if it has been paid by the county, I am afraid it will not last long."

As soon as Fei Zhong finished speaking, he stood up and waited for Zhou Zheng's orders, although most of the construction of the palace was borne by the imperial court, but the imperial court only bore the materials needed for the construction of the palace, and the cost of recruiting migrant workers and craftsmen and the cost of three meals were to be borne by themselves.

After listening to Fei Zhong's words, Zhou Zheng asked: "Fei County Order doesn't know how much money there is in the county now?" ”

After listening to Zhou Zheng's words, Fei Zhong immediately said: "Back to Your Highness, there are only 30,000 silver coins left in the county now, in addition to the money that must be left over for the spring planting next year, the remaining money from the officials in the county, and the daily expenses in the county, the remaining money can last for a month at most if it is counted as wages and food." ”

"A month?" Zhou Zheng looked a little surprised.

"Yes, Your Highness's taxes this year have just been handed over to the county, and now there are only so many of them." Fei Zhong began to complain on the sidelines.

At the end of each year, all localities will pay 70% of the taxes collected in a year to the imperial court, and the rest of the money is used to maintain the expenses of the next year.

Knowing that Fei Zhong was in difficulty, Zhou Zheng did not embarrass Fei Zhong and said: "In this case, from tomorrow onwards, the money needed for the construction of this palace can be directly withdrawn from Steward Ye, if there is nothing else, let's do it first." ”

Zhou Zheng asked Fei Zhong to withdraw money and silver from Ye Da's hand to use it for the construction of the palace, and Fei Zhong immediately took the order to retire, leaving Zhou Zheng alone in the living room.

Alas! It's very easy to be a prince? Zhou Zheng began to complain in his heart.

Originally, it was a good thing for Zhou Zheng to be a prince and a fief, and a large number of people were beckoning to Zhou Zheng, but unfortunately when Zhou Zheng's dream of being rich and wealthy had just taken off, the big problem of money was in front of Zhou Zheng.
