Although Qingpu Kok is not far from the mainland, it is administratively divided into the area of Pearl Island, which consists of four small islands and their related sea areas, the largest of which is Yunwu Island, which King Shun moved from Yaocheng and lived there for more than 20 years.

The smallest is Qingpu Point, although it is a small island, because of the extension of the continental shelf, the two are connected, and it is more appropriate to say that it is a fishing port.

The farthest from the mainland are Fire Island and Wind Island, which are uninhabited, and are said to be full of hot pools, while Wind Island is full of snakes and insects, and neither island has fresh water resources. These are the four places in her fiefdom, and the focus is on Cloud Island.

Tomorrow, the prefect of Yaocheng will accompany her to walk around, officially announcing Manqing's identity, as a lord, she made her first public appearance in the fiefdom, and she changed her appearance last time, even if she sent them to Ah Qiang, it is impossible to recognize her.

They arrived there early in the morning, the village chief and some elders with the whole village, waiting at the entrance of the village early, Manqing's name, they are also like thunder, last year was able to successfully capture Cloud Island, it is the credit of this county lord.

They also heard that she also had her share in the extermination of King Shun, and behind the title was full of military exploits, she was a strange woman!

When I saw it today, everyone was a little surprised, the county lord looks so small, such a beautiful little girl can still fight? Doubts are doubts, but no one dares to snub her, and the future taxes will be handed over to the county lord, and the policies of the imperial court have little to do with them.

Ah Shuang stood behind Man Qing, she looked at the people under her eyes, ho, I really saw familiar faces, the old men at the entrance of the village and Ah Qiang, they all stood relatively high,

The village chief led everyone to give a big gift to Manqing, this is a must, since she is the lord here, these people are her people, after the ceremony, she said a word, and the bottom cheered completely.

"In the past few years, there have been two wars in a row, you have suffered, our fishing boats are small, the risk of going to sea is too great, and everyone's life is very difficult. Since the fishing tax has been allocated to the lord of this county, I will be exempted this year, of course, this is temporary, and it will depend on the situation next year. ”

When everyone heard that the county lord did not collect taxes, everyone cheered, which was a great thing.

She doesn't plan to implement tax exemption for a long time, after all, the emperor is not comfortable seeing it, and she is a little suspicious of inviting the people, she has to find a way to make them rich, and then she will collect it, and there will be no burden.

Suddenly, Ah Qiang found that Ah Shuang was very familiar, he said something in the ear of an old man, and pointed again, this action could not be hidden from Ah Shuang, and the little girl smiled at him.

Ah Qiang's face became red, he thought he was doing a hide, but he didn't expect that girl's eyes were too sharp, he suddenly understood, it was the county lord who was looking for him at the beginning, no wonder, they all said that the fall of Cloud Island was the credit of the county lord, and it turned out that he had also helped, of course, he was just making money.

The village chief took them around the island, the area is really not large, the biggest advantage here is the reef bridge, if you build a pier here, you can solve the problem of berthing big ships, after all, the water here is very deep.

"Did the boats in the village all build themselves?" The village chief listened to her question, hesitated slightly,

"Most of the boats were built by Gu Bo and his apprentices, but he can only build small boats, and the kind that the government wants will not."

Manqing remembered the name, she didn't have time today, she had to go to Cloud Mist Island today, there were some things, I would talk about it when I came back.

On Cloud Island, the deacon on the island took people to wait on the shore, and when he saw her, he was like seeing his relatives, he was enthusiastic, and he heard the prefect say that after she received it thoroughly, the court officials had to withdraw it, and it seemed that the island was really uncomfortable.

But her focus is on Jiangnan, and she has not prepared the manpower here, so she doesn't plan to accept it in full.

"If you insist on it, you will have to wait for the county lord's mansion to settle down."

The prefect frowned, feeling that this person was so blind, but fortunately, the county lord was very familiar with this place, if he changed someone, he wouldn't be scared away? ”

"Are those people from before King Shun? There are three? ”

"Yes, they left the Shun Mansion a long time ago, so this time the emperor also pardoned them, and they are currently living on the island, so it's strange to say, why don't they go back to their hometown?"

It turned out that these people were not born and raised locally, although the scenery on the island was good, the natural conditions were very poor, and Manqing was also a little strange.

This time, I didn't have time to have more contact with them, but after seeing the people, I was led by the prefect and went to the original Shunwang Mansion.

"The emperor decreed, the property left by King Shun on the island has been given to you, and the best thing is this palace, let's go in and have a look."

She came here back then, it was too dark at the time, so she didn't see anything, as soon as she went in today, Man Qingxin said, King Shun's brain is really in the water, this is the Immortal Mansion, it's a good day, why rebel!

"These people are all from the island, just cleaning and trimming the flowers." These people are all free people, just hired, the original servants of the Shun Palace, some of them were caught in the capital, and some of them have already been sold.

"Who's the head of you here? I have something to say, "A woman was sweeping the leaves, and she beckoned."

"It's Zheng Da, he's not in the mansion today, I don't know where he went?" The prefect was anxious when he heard it, although he was just a subordinate, what did it mean that he was not in the house?

The deacon smiled wryly and said,

"He often goes outside, maybe he went to Zheng Hua, and he asked for leave at first, I thought it was just to guard the house, so I didn't care much, and then when I went out, he didn't tell me."

"Zheng Hua is the Zheng family, right, this Zheng Da is also theirs?"

"No, they are just a surname, he used to work in the palace, and there was no one who sold himself, so he was kept." The deacon hurriedly explained,

"From today onwards, there is no need for people here, so let's all go home, by the way, the wages will be doubled." She plans to put a seal and tell the white lady to come out, if those people have intentions here, the target must be the palace, and first withdraw all the people, so that the fox's tail can be exposed.

The deacon opened his mouth and swallowed back, the county lord was not an ordinary woman, she must have her own plans.

At this moment, a man in his thirties, pale, may have been in a hurry.

He threw himself on his knees, saying that he had something at home and went back.

Man Qing hurriedly called him up, the deacon said the decision just now, asked him to gather people, and left the palace after receiving the salary, the man obviously didn't expect that his face turned even paler.

"Ah Shuang, you can pay this salary, don't embarrass the deacon." Double is what she said, and the government doesn't have this expense.
