Jia Cong returned to the inner courtyard of the palace.

I saw Lin Daiyu, Xue Baochai, Shi Xiangyun, and Mandarin Duck, waiting for them.

Seeing Jia Cong coming in, Lin Daiyu said with a smile.

"Lord Wang, just now we went to see the fifty palace maids together, all of them are as beautiful as flowers, there are five or six of them, all of them are stunning, and some even have to faintly press us, the emperor has really made a bloody investment this time."

Seeing Lin Daiyu smiling, I always felt a little ill-intentioned.

This little girl, she won't want to trick herself again, right?

Although, Lin Daiyu has been a little more open-minded under her influence in this life.

However, sometimes I still eat some vinegar and play a little petty.

I saw so many beauties this time, not only her, but also several other people probably couldn't sit still.

Thinking of this, Jia Cong said in surprise.

"It's really fake, you won't be lying to me, I've seen a lot of palace maids in the palace, if you want to say that you haven't seen a few, if you really want to, the emperor won't leave it by himself, where will he be willing to give it to me."

Besides, in my heart, you are the most beautiful, the best-looking, and my favorite person in the world, and no one can compare to you in my eyes, and you are my favorite."

When the four of them heard this, they were happy and happy, and they all couldn't help but laugh "sneering".

Xue Baochai smiled: "Your mouth is like smeared with honey, although I don't know if what you said is true or not, we still like it very much, just when what you say is true."

"Really, absolutely true, more real than real gold, my sincerity, can't you feel it?"

Jia Cong looked at them with a real face.

Shi Xiangyun chuckled, "Well, I believe what the third brother said, what you said must be true."

Lin Daiyu said with a little disappointment: "The prince said so, then we believe it, originally we were still discussing, thinking about choosing a few of the best postures, so that the prince can be included in the room, since the prince can't look down on it, then forget it."

But let's say it first, this is the prince, you can't look down on yourself, it's not that we won't let you take the house, when the time comes, you see them, don't regret it, you can't say that we are stingy."

The corners of Jia Cong's mouth twitched, and he secretly said in his heart, he knew that there was a cat in it, and it was so.

These people, this is a good discussion, and they are probably burying a pit for themselves.

Even if there is one who really catches the eye, I can't admit it.

Anyway, I can't run away in the palace, so I can secretly start in the future.

However, I really haven't seen it, and most of the people sent by the emperor, even the people sent from the grassland and Jeju Island, don't know it.

Among them, the people sent from Jeju Island are the most reliable and have no problems.

After all, they were all rescued by themselves, and they were specially selected, and they are the most loyal people.

There shouldn't be much of a problem with these maids sent from the grassland.

It is impossible for Zhang Hu and Wang Shun to have an idea, and as for Borchi, after all, he is a Mongol, so it is not easy to say.

After all, as a person's strength grows stronger, his ambitions will become bigger and bigger, and some ideas are normal.

However, he had just defeated Amin and taken him as a subordinate.

At this time, Borchi was a little cautious and didn't dare to show it.

It probably won't, in these maids.

Among these women sent by the emperor, there are some spies.

Before finding out the people, it is impossible for Jia Cong to mess around.

Now he is surrounded by his wife and concubines, all of them are very good, and he doesn't have too strong a demand for beauty.

If there is no emotional foundation, it is just a vase.

In addition to the fresh and exciting picture points, that is, a tool man who reproduces.

It is completely incomparable with Lin Daiyu, Xue Baochai, Shi Xiangyun, Ping'er, Mandarin Duck, Qingwen and others.

Jia Cong looked at the four of them. A look of affection.

"I can have you in this life, I am content, you are the people I want to accompany for a lifetime, never separated, grow old together, raise your eyebrows, the sea is dry and rotten, this will not waver."

Seeing Jia Cong so solemn and affectionate.

The four of them were a little moved, and they were all a little moved, but more of them were full of joy.

Everyone hugged Jia Cong together and murmured, "Lord Wang, so are we."

Jia Cong patted a few people on the shoulder and said dotingly, "Well, I know. Okay, I'm going to inspect all over the place, and send the three Da Yu'er sisters home to save their relatives by the way, if any of you want to follow, then make some preparations early.

But let's talk about it first, this trip is a long way, the total distance back and forth can reach two or three thousand miles, and it may take several months to come back, and it is quite tiring to take a car on this way, if you are afraid of being tired, stay in the palace and wait for us to come back."

When Shi Xiangyun heard this, he immediately jumped up.

said with a happy face: "Third brother, I'll go with you, I'm not afraid of being tired, I'll stay at home this winter, I want to go out and have fun."

Lin Daiyu said: "I am now the prince's guard, so naturally I have to accompany him to protect the prince."

Xue Baochai glanced at the two of them and looked at Jia Cong.

"Lord, the concubine has just come to Liaodong, and she doesn't want to be separated from the prince, but she also wants to follow the prince everywhere."

Seeing this, the mandarin duck also hurriedly spoke.

"The prince is traveling, and no one can take care of him, I have to stay with the prince and take care of the prince's food, clothing, housing and transportation, so naturally I have to follow."

Jia Cong smiled heartily: "If you are not afraid of being tired, then follow along, it's good to go around while you're young, you ask other people, if you're willing to follow, then let's all go together, make some preparations in advance."

Lin Daiyu asked, "Brother Cong, if we go to Da Yu'er's tribe, his family won't be unfavorable to you, right?" Da Yu'er was robbed by you, and Hai Lanzhu and Xiao Yu'er were also robbed and given to you by others."

Jia Cong smiled and said, "Don't worry, give them a hundred guts, they don't dare, now the entire north is under my control, as long as they are not too stupid, they will not mess around."

The tribe of Horqin is not very powerful, it is not as good as Zhang Hu and their tribe, they hooked up with the barbarians early, and they are the little brothers of the barbarians, since Hongtai died, the relationship with them has slowly become estranged.

Even if I know that there is no danger, I still have to make some preparations, and when the time comes, I will let Zhang Hu, with 5,000 cavalry, escort us together, and there will be no safety problems."

Lin Daiyu nodded: "If these children follow, it's better to be safe."

In fact, the children are too young, and Jia Cong doesn't really want to take them.

It is estimated that their mothers want to follow, and they are not worried about leaving their children at home.

Forget it, let's take them out to play.

After explaining this matter to them, he talked to them again, and the front door notified Shi Nai to come and find him, so he got up and went out.

Shi Nai's coming over this time was mainly for the matter of Juntun.

Originally, Jia Cong agreed, and he started the military camp this year.

Later, the imperial court disagreed, and in addition, this year's war with the barbarians, Jia Cong did not continue, so he let it go.

Now that the war is over, many officers and men in the army have taken the initiative to mention it.

After all, the conditions given by Jia Cong are too tempting.

It's those generals who are very hot-eyed.

After the end of the war, he found Shi Nai in twos and threes.

Let Shi Nai come forward and ask Jia Cong if Juntun is still going to do it.

"Marshal, the officers and soldiers in the army are very enthusiastic about the affairs of the military tun, and now there are eighty percent of the brothers, all of whom have already registered, and I also know that the court does not agree very much, but in this situation, what should we do?"

Jia Cong was also a little embarrassed, the words had already been spoken, if he didn't do it, his prestige in the army would inevitably suffer.

But the court did not agree with the military tun, if he was disobedient and insisted on starting the military tun, it would be difficult for the court to explain.

However, Jia Cong also understands.

Now that the Great War was over, the barbarians withdrew from Liaodong.

Then, it is impossible for the imperial court to let these 300,000 troops stay in Liaodong.

According to Jia Cong's estimates, it would be good to be able to leave 100,000 horses for himself.

When the time comes, whether he will let himself be in charge is still to be said.

Now, if you don't seize the opportunity, gather a group of people to stay in Liaodong, and wait until the imperial court withdraws the army, it will be all night.

It really can't be done, so you can let a group of old, weak, slightly injured, and unwilling to fight retire directly.

He then assigned them fields and left them in Liaodong.

Even, you can help them and bring your family members to settle in Liaodong.

Thinking of this, Jia Cong raised his head and looked at Shi Nai.

"Since everyone has this intention, then Ben Shuai will let it go, even if the court blames him, Ben Shuai will admit it. If the order goes down, the affairs of the military tun will continue as usual, and this matter will still be in charge of you, and the commander will not let you do it in vain, and your share can be tripled."

When Shi Nai heard this, he was overjoyed.

10,000 acres tripled, that's 40,000 acres.

Even if the land here is cheap, it will be worth five or six hundred thousand taels of silver.

He knew that this was Jia Cong taking care of himself, so he naturally readily agreed.

Anyway, with Jia Cong on top, the court will not do anything to itself, he is taking benefits for nothing, and he is a fool if he doesn't take it.

"Thank you, the general, I will definitely do this well."

Jia Cong thought for a while and asked, "By the way, how did you prepare for the preparations you made before, hundreds of thousands of people worked together to open up the wasteland, and the hoe alone cost more than 300,000 yuan, and the farmland reclaimed this time also reached more than 20 million mu, are the places selected before enough?"

Shi Nai said: "Those soldiers who have moved their minds have already prepared the tools to open up the wasteland, especially those commanders who have moved their hearts, they have already ordered all the subordinates in the camp to prepare the tools, just wait for the commander to give an order."

Jia Cong shook his head and smiled, "These guys are really positive about this."

Shi Nai smiled: "The main thing is that the benefits are too great, they are honest soldiers, they shouldn't make so much money in their lives, and they don't have to take risks, they are naturally very concerned."

However, there are still some people who are in a wait-and-see attitude and are not prepared, and the tools of this part of the people need the help of the commander."

Jia Cong nodded: "This is no problem, in order to vigorously promote the policy of land reclamation, I have asked the local governments to prepare a lot of tools, and I can allocate a batch of tools to you first."

"Then there is no problem, first complete the reclamation of those areas that have been demarcated, if it is not enough, and then expand outward, this is not a problem, and then the matter of establishing a village requires the transfer of craftsmen by the commander."

"These are not problems, I will give an order later, send craftsmen from all over the country, and hand them over to you, since it is a newly built village, then you have to plan it well, I have some planning drawings of villages and towns here, and give them to you, and you let them build according to the drawings."

Jia Cong said, took out a few drawings, and handed them to Shi Nai.

"Hurry up on this matter yourself, how much can be cultivated before the snow falls, I will go out to inspect all parts of Liaodong after a while, and then go to the grassland to hide for a while, I will not come back in the short term, and the people of the court will not find me.

If the imperial court sends someone to stop you, you don't have to pay attention to it, just say that Ben Shuai gave you a death order, and if you can't complete the order, you can do it, and just push everything on Ben Shuai."

Shi Nai hesitated for a moment, but nodded in agreement.

Since Jia Cong said so, then just do what he said, anyway, he is handsome.

Besides, it is also a good thing to open up wasteland, and it is impossible for the imperial court to go too far.

What about 300,000 soldiers, the law does not blame the public, not to mention that there is a big handsome Jia Cong.

"Don't worry, the last general will know what to do."

After sending Shi Nai away, Jia Cong began to give orders.

The first order is for all the defenders in Liaodong, that is, from today onwards, take turns to open up the barren tun fields, with a maximum of 50 mu per soldier, and the larger the official position, the more the number, and the maximum number of 10,000 mu under the command of a battalion, and the cultivated fields are all owned by individuals, exempt from tax for five years, and pay 20% of the tax after five years.

Of course, with so much land, they will definitely not be able to grow it.

You can move your family here, or you can hire tenants to help with farming.

The second order was to send craftsmen from all over the country to the wasteland and establish new villages. In addition, a batch of agricultural tools was transferred from local governments and handed over to the army for use.

Jia Cong informed Zhang Hu and sent them two hundred cattle and handed them over to Shi Nai.

With these oxen, coupled with iron ploughs, the speed of clearing the land is even faster.

Since he had the idea of Juntun, Jia Cong notified the grassland and asked them to vigorously breed cattle.

It's only been a year, but the calves can't grow, so it's good to send 200 heads.

In a few years, there will be a gradual increase in the number of cattle.

arranged the affairs of the military tun and the military and political affairs of Liaodong.

More than a month has passed, and it has entered June.

Jia Cong also took his family and began to inspect all parts of Liaodong to investigate the people's situation.

When they arrived in Quang Ninh, they joined a convoy and entered the steppe together.

Soon after, he saw Zhang Hu, leading 5,000 Mongolian iron horsemen, waiting on the border of the steppe.

Under the escort of Zhang Hu, the team returned to the goshawk tribe.

After resting here for more than ten days, he continued northward and entered the Horqin grassland.
