The three county officials looked solemn, Lishan wanted to buy such a large piece of land, and the three counties had to come out of the land together.

Xinfeng is the closest to Chang'an City, the former Xinfeng is only a Xinfeng post on the edge of Chang'an City, only 20 miles away from Chang'an City, and the former Sui Dynasty transformed it into Xinfeng County.

In terms of geographical boundaries, it is far less large than the two counties of Lantian and Weinan.

Due to its proximity to Chang'an City, this Xinfeng County is not like a county, just like a small village, and still plays the role of a post station.

The Tang Dynasty followed the system of the former Sui Dynasty and retained the name of the county.

Among the three counties, Xinfeng County is the closest to Chang'an City, but the right to speak is still the smallest, Xinfeng County Cheng is a middle-aged man in his forties, who used to be just a post station manager, Zhenguan was moved to the county in the early years, and has not moved so far.

His gaze looked at the other two county officials, waiting for their opinions.

Zhang Yang bowed his head and said: "I know that you are very embarrassed, such a large piece of land, if you want to take it out for the construction of Lishan, the DPRK and the Central Committee will have discussions about the counties. ”

The county magistrate of Weinan County replied: "County marquis, in fact, it's not that we don't want to take out the land, it's just that these two thousand acres of land are too much. ”

"If you can give some land to each of your counties, it can also bring benefits to each county."

The county magistrate of Lantian County looked at the land circled on the map, and said suspiciously: "The land of three of these counties is uneven, our Lantian occupies the most area, and Xinfeng has the least." ”

Hearing this, Xinfeng County Cheng frowned and said: "Although you have the most land in Lantian County, we are also indispensable to Xinfeng. ”

Cheng Zhengse of Lantian County said: "The least out of the least, the least natural." ”

Seeing that the county officials of the three counties were about to quarrel, Li Tai became interested and watched this scene with tea.

Cheng of Weinan County said slowly: "There are many acres of land in Xinfeng that have been borrowed from our Weinan. ”

"Smack!"

Xinfeng County Cheng shot the case, "What do you mean!" ”

Lantian County said: "Since Lishan is out of our three counties, who has a lot of land, naturally there must be a point to say." ”

Xinfeng County said angrily: "Are you planning to hand over the land to Lishan?" ”

"The old man never said that."

"Then what are you doing with a certain family?"

Seeing that the two sides were arguing more and more happily, Zhang Yang frowned and drank tea, and it seemed that such a meeting would not be able to go on.

The county magistrate of Xinfeng County directly lifted the table and left.

Zhang Yang glanced at the county officials of these two counties and said lightly: "Is there anything else you want to say?" ”

The two county magistrates sighed and left.

This time the conversation broke up unhappily.

Li Tai stepped forward and said, "Does my brother-in-law have to want this land?" ”

"It's a good piece of land, I have to ask for it."

"Actually, my brother-in-law can talk to my father."

Zhang Yang shook his head and said, "Your father is greedy more and more, and he is waiting for Lishan to show weakness to him." ”

Li Tai snorted: "But in this case, this matter can't be discussed." ”

"Lantian County Cheng didn't go far."

"I just left, but I must not have gone far."

Zhang Yang glanced at the sky outside, the sun was high, it was noon, and said in a low voice: "Trouble His Royal Highness King Wei to invite Lantian County first, Xinfeng County in half an hour, and Weinan County in half an hour." ”

"Why?"

"Each county has its own interests, and it was a fool's decision to put them together at a table to talk."

Not far away, Li Yue was picking up wood accompanied by his son, daughter and a few bears.

It turned out that the family was running out of firewood.

"Daddy, you can eat rabbits at night, my mother caught three very fat rabbits."

Li Yue smiled: "Your father still has something to do, let's go find Aunt Hongfu." ”

"Okay."

The daughter is much taller again, she follows briskly, carefully holding a bundle of firewood is struggling to follow, his arms are still very short, there is not much firewood to hold, and his cheeks are also red at the moment.

A moment later, Li Tai came with the county man with Lantian.

The other party was sweating, first looked at Li Tai, who was already sitting on the side chewing ice, and then looked at the county marquis, he wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said, "Why did the county marquis invite the lower officials again?" ”

Outside the house, the laughter of her daughter and son was heard again, and the order of the Red Whisk Girl.

Looking out the window, Li Yue also followed the red whisk girl to practice splitting, and her children followed behind to learn one trick at a time.

This scenery is very pleasant to look at.

Zhang Yang shook the fan in his hand leisurely, "Chu Xiancheng, are you Chu Suiliang's fellow countryman?" ”

Chu Xiancheng replied: "At the beginning, Xia Guan followed General Chu Liang to raise troops from Jiangnan Dongdao, and he has remained in office until now. ”

Zhang Yang looked at him, he was a few years older than Chu Suiliang, so he said: "I should call you brother, but it's a pity that the world was in chaos at the beginning." ”

Speaking of that year, Chu Xiancheng replied: "According to the age of the county marquis, the world was in turmoil back then, and the county marquis was not born yet." ”

Zhang Yang smiled embarrassedly again, "I often heard the teacher say that the heroes and heroes of the world at that time. ”

Chu County Cheng said: "The lower officials were just a child, and General Chu Liang was high-spirited, although he was a literati, he never flinched when he marched into battle, but unfortunately he is now old and has returned to his hometown." ”

Zhang Yang comforted: "It is also a blessing to be able to return to his hometown. ”

"yes." Chu County's face showed a look of nostalgia.

"Since the cooperation between Lishan and Lantian County, the two sides have been mutually beneficial, and Lishan has never hidden its own interests."

Chu Xiancheng replied: "In the past two years, the people of the county have indeed had some spare money, and people from the outside world have talked a lot about Lishan, but Xiaguan understands that Lishan wants to be prosperous with all counties in Guanzhong, and it is where Xiaguan admires Lishan." ”

Zhang Yang said with a smile: "Chu County has won the award, in fact, I have also been to Jiangnan back then, Jiangnan is a place where fish and rice are abundant, and Jiangnan will be richer in the future." ”

"What the county marquis said is very true."

Zhang Yang patted him on the shoulder, "A few days ago, I sent documents to various parts of the Central Plains, and I warned the DPRK and China several times to pay attention to the changes in water and soil in various places, but the waterlogging in Hebei still happened. ”

"The Haihe River basin in Hebei Province has abundant water flow, and the river network is dense, there is not much water conveyance, and the small branch rivers cannot carry such abundant water, which will lead to floods every few years."

Chu Xiancheng replied: "Xia Guan has never seen a Taifu Siqing who can be so conscientious, admire." ”

"In fact, not only Hebei, but also the situation in various parts of the Central Plains, such as the south of Xishu Sichuan, or the strong wind in Lingnan, or the drought in Nanzhao, these are all things I have to care about."

Zhang Yang smiled with relief, "Chu Xiancheng's hometown is in Qiantang County, Jiangnan Province?" ”

"Exactly."

"I have seen the Qiantang wave once, and I will never forget it in this life."

Chu County Chenghu suspiciously: "The county marquis has been to Qiantang? ”

"I've been there before, it's been a long time."

Zhang Yang smiled, reminiscing about the events of his previous life.

He cleared his throat again and continued: "Actually, I took the liberty of inviting Chu Xiancheng back, there is something to discuss. ”

"What else is going on with the county marquis?"

Zhang Yang pointed to the map, "It's still because of this incident." ”

"Can the officials go back and consider this matter?"

"Yes, but maybe the timing doesn't wait for anyone."

Chu Xiancheng looked at Zhang Yang's harmless smile, his heart was shocked, and finally his eyes fell on the blue stubble on his chin.

"In fact, the county of Xinfeng County is willing to take out 2,000 acres to build Lishan."

"What!" Cheng Dengshi of Chu County stood up and said angrily: "Where did he get the 2,000 acres of land, where did he get so much land in Xinfeng County, the county marquis is going to laugh." ”

Zhang Yang said in a deep voice: "Xinfeng County really doesn't have so many fields, so he is willing to demolish many houses and exchange 2,000 acres, and they can get a share of the profits of Lishan Technology Institute in the future." ”

At this point, he lowered his voice and said to him: "Chu Xiancheng, this is a profitable deal, if we recruit 3,000 students, each person receives 300 yuan per year, that is 1,000 yuan, and year after year, not to mention the opening of shops around the area, the construction of libraries and canteens." ”

"A technical institute that can accommodate 3,000 students is far more profitable than you think."

Chu Xiancheng lowered his head, his hands were pinching.

Zhang Yang said with a smile: "Otherwise, how could the small county from which the post station was born back then have such a big confidence to argue with you?" He just gave Lishan benefits in advance, and we, Lishan, in line with the principle of common prosperity, will naturally not hide it from you. ”

"At that time, the county magistrate of Weinan County was also there, I can't say it clearly, so I will tell you."

"You don't have to doubt that we really have so many students? You can go to Chang'an City to inquire, how many students want to worship under the Lishan Gate? ”

Chu Xiancheng suddenly got up and said angrily: "What a person surnamed Yan actually did such a thing behind the old man's back." ”

"You are angry."

Zhang Yang politely poured him tea.

"County marquis, let the officials go back and discuss with the county people, and they will definitely give Lishan an explanation."

"Ah......" Zhang Yang saw his hurried footsteps and said, "Don't you drink tea?" ”

Holding the tea bowl in your hand, the tea is still hot, put it down, and sit down again.

Li Tai looked at Tianri, and before half an hour, he said to the guards outside the door, "Go and ask for the next one." ”

"Whoa."

The county leader of Xinfeng County is a middle-aged man named Yan Zhang, who was just a post house horse breeder.

As a county marquis, the gap between Lantian and Weinan is not small, this person can't even write well, and he can sit firmly in the position of the county prince, all because of his friendship with the township and his character.

In the early years of Wude, where were there so many scholars in Datang, the selection and appointment of officials was often determined by local reputation and conduct.

Yan Xiancheng hurriedly walked over, "Dare to ask the county marquis why he summoned the lower officials to come?" But do you still have instructions? ”

Zhang Yang smiled: "It's nothing, it's just that the county Cheng of Lantian County has just left." ”

"Really?"

"Look, it's not far yet."

Yan Zhang raised his eyes, and sure enough, he saw a back figure wearing an official uniform, as if he was in a hurry, but yes, he was the county magistrate of Lantian.

"This ......" Yan Xiancheng said curiously: "Isn't he walking faster than the old man?" Why did you come here again? ”

"That's right." Zhang Yang shook his fan in distress.

"What did this Chu County Cheng fall on?"

Zhang Yang explained: "That's not true, it's still for the sake of this technical institute on the map." ”

Yan County Cheng said: "Actually, Xia Guan is very willing to take out the land for Lishan to build, but Xinfeng is small, and it is really ......."

"I know, I know."

Zhang Yang grinned: "I know your difficulties, so the county magistrate of Lantian County told me that Lantian County is willing to give your share to the construction of Lishan." ”

"Really?"

"That's right." Zhang Yang said: "It's just that in the future, there will be no Xinfeng County, you also know that we in Lishan never do loss-making transactions, and Lishan wants to build a technical institute, which is naturally profitable." ”

"Wait!" Yan Zhang hurriedly interrupted: "This is a matter of three counties, why should he be in charge of Lantian County, why should he be the master of Xinfeng County, the old man did not say that he would not take out the land." ”

Zhang Yang said with emotion: "No, Chu County, Lantian County, is obviously saying that it is for the sake of your Xinfeng County and to relieve your worries, but it is not easy to be arbitrary in such a big matter, so please come over and ask, do you really want to give this from Xinfeng County to Lantian County?" ”

"Impossible!" Yan Zhang said angrily: "The old man never asked him to share his worries for Xinfeng, and the old man kept saying that for the sake of a certain family, he was for himself." ”

Zhang Yang smiled stunned, "I see, I'm glad you went one more time." ”

"Thank you for telling me." Xinfeng County Cheng saluted again, thanked him again, and then said: "Lishan has come up with a secret recipe for our townships and counties, and it is too late to thank you, how can you be suspicious, the county marquis can rest assured that as long as it is within the county's ability, the definition is unavoidable." ”

Zhang Yang said with a smile: "Where is it, this matter is very big, you can go back and think about it." ”

"That's right." The county magistrate of Xinfeng County saluted and said: "The lower officials will leave first, there is a lot of trouble, sorry." ”

"It's okay, it's our cooperation that counts."

"Yes, farewell."

The man clenched his fists like a martial artist and walked away quickly.

Li Tai yawned lazily, "You can go and ask for the next one." ”

He sat up, listened to it and almost fell asleep, plucked out his eyes and said, "Brother-in-law, why bother like this." ”

Zhang Yang explained: "I don't want to talk too much, but difficulties always need to be solved. ”

The county magistrate of Weinan County came very slowly, and when he walked here, there was no one in this dilapidated mansion.

"County Cheng, here."

Hearing this, Cheng Xunsheng of Weinan County looked at it, and saw a large family roasting rabbits, Her Royal Highness the Princess and Princess Wei were also there, and a large group of children.

Zhang Yang handed over a roast rabbit leg, "Taste?" ”

I wanted to go back to eat, but I didn't want to eat, and I was called back again, and I'm hungry at the moment.

He took the rabbit leg awkwardly, didn't put his mouth down, and asked, "I don't know what the county marquis is looking for the official for?" ”

Zhang Yang took out a book from the hut on the side, "This is part of our plan for opening a technical institute, as well as the preliminary profit budget, if you have time, you can take a look, even if our technical institute cannot be built, Lishan does not want to waste these preparations." ”

"The county marquis asked the subordinate to come here just for this?" He reached out and took the book, puzzled.

"Well, that's right, it's just that, nothing else."

When the Cheng of Weinan County heard this, he said solemnly: "The county marquis can understand the lower officials, and the lower officials will feel the inner five, and they will ...... in the future."

"We will continue to work together in the future." Zhang Yang scrambled to speak.
