While taking a deep breath, I turned my head, Sister Qingxia's pretty face was close to me, not to mention the eyes and lips, even the eyebrows and eyelashes could be seen very clearly.

Sister Qingxia's lips are not the type that is very plump, but they are not small and delicate, the lips are very red, and the lip line is also very distinct, even if she doesn't wear makeup, her lips are like a lipstick.

The small Joan nose, with the long black eyelashes, and the hair is a little loose because of rest, there is really a feeling of sleeping beauty. The corners of her mouth turned up slightly, and she didn't know what kind of dream Sister Qingxia was having.

In addition, her pupils are also very beautiful, dark and brown pupils, like the gem of the night, uh, why can I see the pupils?

Ben Gongzi blinked innocently and said with a bright smile. "Are you awake? If you wake up, can you please move your feet away first? ”

Sister Qingxia squinted, as if she hadn't fully reflected, and only after moving her feet did she find out where her legs were resting, with a low cry, Sister Qingxia quickly withdrew her legs, and buried her face in the sleeping bag again, but soon, she poked her head out of the sleeping bag again. Her face was as red as the delicate rose petals, and her eyes were full of shame. "Childe, I'm sorry." What he said was not much different from the mosquito greeting, so that this son was stunned and vaguely understood what it meant.

"It's okay, this son is also a person who exercises every day, if you press this for a while, will you be blamed?" I smiled and said, seeing the flush on her pretty face, I felt more and more that it was a good pleasure to tease such a beautiful girl.

"Childe, let's hurry up, this should be the time for breakfast." Sister Qingxia couldn't stand the burning gaze of her son, so she quickly got out of her sleeping bag, rushed to the cabin door, opened the door and ran out. The corners of Ben Gongzi's mouth were slightly curved, looking at the sunlight shining in from outside the hatch, today was really a good weather.

After washing up, I walked out of the cabin, and saw that on this small deck, there were several parts of the group playing poker and fighting the landlord there, and when I saw this son, I quickly threw the cards, and all of them stood up and greeted me.

"What's the matter, the workout is done in the morning?" Ben Gongzi tilted the corners of his eyes and looked at this guy.

Li Yuanfang, who was the leader, said cautiously twice: "Childe, you can't blame the brothers, the territory of this ship is too small, and the big guy is worried about affecting your rest, so ......" Li Yuanfang said and glanced at Sister Qingxia with reverence.

Sister Qingxia's cheeks turned red when she heard this, and her eyes were shy, and her son made Li Yuanfang's words so angry that her face was black, damn, this son is now an unlucky ghost who didn't eat mutton and caused a commotion. "Don't be wordy, this son is awake now, you all give me a workout, the territory is not big, you will run around the deck for this son, well, run half a lap before you can rest." Ben Gongzi's vicious expression frightened Li Yuanfang and the others, how dare they bargain with Ben Gongzi, and rushed straight to the other end of the deck.

And after Li Yuanfang accompanied the smiling face to receive the order, he called up all the guys who were still squatting in the cabin and slept lazily, and began to exercise in the morning on the big ship.

Seeing this guy running while shouting slogans, he was very energetic, and his expression finally looked better, but when he turned around, he saw that Sister Qingxia's cheeks were flushed, and her expression was ashamed and annoyed, but there was no way to explain this kind of thing.

"It's okay, that guy is joking, if you can't get angry, just beat him up, how about this son cheer for you?" This son winked at Sister Qingxia and smiled, in exchange for this girl's shy and annoyed eyes, and then turned to look at the scenery on the riverbank,

After staying on the ship for almost four days, I finally arrived at the pier in Hancheng County, which is really not big, in my opinion, it is like a tourist attraction in later generations, and it is specially used to dock tourist boats

Every time, only one boat with a length of about ten zhang can be docked, and when Ben Gongzi jumped off the deck and stood on the dock, he already saw Zheng Ye who was hurrying towards this side. "Childe, you can be regarded as here, the little one has been waiting here for almost two days."

"Hehe, thank you for your hard work, the speed of this ship is too slow, and it took almost four days to sit. By the way, the pier in Hancheng County is so big? Ben Gongzi looked around curiously, well, around this dock, it seems that it is just a village, and Hancheng County is not here.

"Childe, Hancheng County has never had any special products, and this wharf is mostly used by those fishermen, so it is naturally not big." Zheng Ye said with a smile.

"I see." I nodded, in fact, coal is a very bad trade resource, however, nowadays, there are still not many people who use coal, and coal is quite popular in the eastern capital, but the surrounding coal mines are enough to supply, and there is no need to buy coal from other places.

"By the way, how's the arrangement going here?" Walking down the wooden pier, I walked ashore, and at this time, I still felt as if my feet were dangling. It seems that the sequelae formed after a long time on the boat.

"Don't worry, Childe, the small one has already bought two sets of houses in the county seat of Hancheng County, where at least sixty or seventy people can live, squeeze it, and everyone here can live, in addition, outside the county seat, let the craftsmen who arrived first have built more than a dozen houses, as well as horse sheds...... "Zheng Ye explained to me one by one very methodically.

Well, it was a good job, not only did we buy a ready-made house, but we also got land to build some houses and stables, which were enough for us to live in first.

"Childe, the county magistrate and the county lieutenant are waiting over there, do you want to go over first?" Zheng Ye glanced back and asked me in a low voice. Only then did I see that not far from this pier, there were two middle-aged men walking towards this direction.

Ben Gongzi greeted him first, and these two saluted from afar. "Yang Qiong, the county governor of Hancheng County, and Han Xiong, the county lieutenant of Hancheng County, have seen Qi Guogong." Older, white-skinned and Sven's buddy is the county lieutenant, and the dark-skinned, thick-eyed guy next to him is the county lieutenant.

Ben Gongzi also stepped forward with a smile and said hello, I don't know if I don't know how to fight, I was startled, damn, these two are actually the protégés of Yang Xiong, the king of Guande, well, it's a protégé, there is no protégé in this era.

Yang Qiong and King Guande are the grandsons of Yang Xiong's distant cousins, and the county lieutenant Han Xiong used to be Yang Xiong's personal soldiers, because of some skills, so Yang Xiong was very generous to recommend him as an official, in addition, the county order that originally stayed here was also the subordinate of Yang Xiong, the king of Guande

The entire county is equivalent to being controlled by King Guande, no wonder this guy said that he could help me, which made me have to be secretly alarmed by the power of this kind of family gate.

These two told me that Yang Xiong, the king of Guande, said that the reason why they stayed was because Yang Xiong felt that they were more able to obey the leadership of Shangfeng, and they were so good that they stayed just to assist me.

Well, this kind of sycophancy Ben Gongzi accepted it calmly, and thought that these two asked some about the affairs of the county, and told them that Ben Gongzi is a very good county magistrate, as long as you can obediently listen to this son's words and do what Ben Gongzi tells you, then, I dare not say that I am promoted, but the chance of making a fortune is greatly reduced.

In addition, after asking this son, it became clear that no matter which state or county, if you want to build roads, you can only do it yourself, such as Hancheng County, the court requires that the local government must ensure that it is repaired once a year, at least to ensure the traffic between the road and the outside world, but if you want the state to pay for it, it is simply.

The main reason is that Hanseong County is not on the main road of the country, so the local conscription can only be sent to repair the road, which is about a month every year. Or whatever.

And the adult men in this county are only in their early 10,000s, more than 10,000 people, only one month a year, in addition to repairing roads, but also to repair the city walls, and even other miscellaneous affairs, so if you want to build roads, just rely on forced labor is completely nonsense.

After chatting a little more about the situation in Hancheng County, Ben Gongzi learned that the grain and silk cloth paid by Hancheng County every year are converted, and the annual tax income is about 15,000 yuan. One-tenth of my monthly income is about this amount, and my son ran a horse once, no, it was a time when he came to the wine and horse trade, and the income he obtained was at least fifty times or even more than the annual tax.

10,000 yuan, a county's tax, is actually only so little, but after thinking about it, the tax in this era is still dominated by agriculture, and Hancheng County, which has seven mountains, one water and two fields, is remote and has no other industrial income, so 15,000 yuan is already good.

In a year, the tax revenue of the entire Sui Dynasty is said to be only a few million, and more than 1,000 prefectures and counties are not small. But that's okay, such a poor and remote place, nothing has yet developed, so that this son can make better achievements.

It's a pity that although these two are my subordinates, they are the subordinates of Yang Xiong, the king of Guande, and they can be used, but there are many things, so try not to let these two know the Tao.

Maybe after the development of this son, the Great Sui began to fall into chaos, and this son will look at the reaction of these two brothers to confirm whether to include these two in my circle.

After some politeness, this son rushed to Hancheng County with the two, Hancheng County, which is nearly ten miles away from the bank of the Yellow River, is really not big, and the city wall is at most two zhang high, and it is all made of yellow mud, so I can see that this son rolls his eyes. Inside and outside the city, most of the houses are still mud houses. Only a few landlords or wealthy families used bricks and stones for construction.
