After Zhang Lu and Zheng Anping met at the Lantian County Pavilion, they talked all night until the rooster crowed.

Zhang Lu is going to the court. Since he currently does not have a knighthood and does not have his own residence, he theoretically still lives in the pavilion. However, he was found a room in Xianyang Palace, which was convenient for him to deal with the work of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Before the problem of Yiqurong was solved, Qin Xiang Wei Ran personally sat in Wangyi Palace, while Jingyang Jun and Gaoling Jun were even more advanced, sitting in Jingyang and Gaoling respectively. Now the problem of Yiqu has been largely solved, and the boundary of Yiqu Rong has been designated as Beidi County. Since Wei Ran went out of Beijing to set up Beidi County and Longxi County, and Huayang Jun and other four people acted as Wei Ran's work, King Qin took charge and changed the office of the Prime Minister to Xianyang Palace, which was close to various government offices, and could improve work efficiency when there was no threat of war. Zhang Lu participated in the work of the Prime Minister's Office as a guest secretary, mainly because he was familiar with the various laws and regulations of the Qin State, as well as getting acquainted with the upper and lower personnel of various offices. Because the pavilion is far away, a room was arranged in the Xianyang Palace for him to rest. - And in fact, Zhang Lu used it as a residence for the past two months, and never returned to the pavilion.

In fact, Zhang Lu was promoted from white to doctor by King Qin because of his merit in digging the Tongyi Canal; Now that he has the identity of King Qin Keqing, this doctor's title has become a chicken rib. According to Qin law, the title can be transferred down two levels, but not more than a doctor. Zhang Lu plans to give up his eldest lord and downgrade Zheng Anping to give him the title of hairpin, which can allow Zheng Anping to divide 300 acres of cultivated land and a house the size of three houses, and basically build a two-entry courtyard.

He didn't say what he thought, but simply told Zheng Anping to live in Lantian for a few days, and then move to Xianyang when he arranged a place to live in Xianyang. Then he hurriedly took the guards back to Xianyang and went to the court. When he came back in the evening, Zhang Lu happily asked Zheng Anping: "You are virtuous in Nanyang?" With Wujin, the car and the shooting are excellent! ”

Zheng Anping took out his name and showed it to Zhang Lu. Zhang Lu said: "You have a hairpin, grant three acres of land, and three houses, what can it be?" ”

Zheng Anping said: "The lord sees it, how dare the minister!" ”

Zhang Lu said: "It's not given by me, Qin Law should be." ”

At dinner, Zhang Lu informed everyone about Zheng Anping's Jin Jue's hairpin, and asked everyone if it was difficult to cultivate 300 acres of cultivated land. Wuwang first said that there was no difficulty. Zhang Lu told everyone present that after entering the Qin Township, they must participate in local legal training, otherwise they will be blamed at every turn in the Qin State.

Zhang Lu handed Zheng Anping a piece of slip, which was briefly written: "Jin Zheng's Anping hairpin, the field house is like a law, and the internal history is settled." Then he pointed out the location of the Inner History Mansion.

After the rooster crowed the next day, Zhang Lu went to court as usual. Zheng Anping did not have a fatwa to greet him by bus this time, and he was not qualified to rub Zhang Lu's car back to Xianyang. I had to follow Zhang Lu's car and walk to Xianyang.

After arriving in Xianyang, according to Zhang Lu's instructions, Zheng Anping found the Inner History Mansion and showed the decree of the Prime Minister's Mansion. The doorman sent him into the house and brought Zheng Anping in when he was young. Nei Shi simply checked his identity, and ordered Nei Shi Cheng to act according to the law. Nei Shicheng took Zheng Anping behind the screen and led him to Hu Cao's seat, Hu Cao had already sent the documents to the Prime Minister's Mansion yesterday, and took them out today, and the two phases were checked correctly, so he asked: "Do you want to cultivate grass, do you want to mature fields?" ”

Zheng Anping kept a heart and asked, "What can I do about reclamation?" What about Ripe Field? ”

Hu Cao said: "Those who cultivate grass cultivate and eat by themselves, but they are in the wilderness; Those who are ripe for the fields are all cultivated, and they can be restored, and they should all be taxed. ”

A simple answer that does not give a clear opinion. Zheng Anping regretted a little, why didn't he ask Zhang Lu how he should choose. He wanted to ask again, but he was sensitive to find that Hu Cao was already a little impatient. He wisely stopped his mouth and replied resignedly, "Cultivate grass!" ”

Hu Cao asked, "How many dependents are there?" ”

Zheng Anping replied: "The wife is a small slave, the middle concubine is Gai Nie, the concubine is Wuwang, the guest is Wuwei, and Chen Si." Hu Cao finished writing one by one and said: "Five days later, I will go to the house to Baina!" "I gave Zheng Anping a festival charm and asked him to come back in five days. Zheng Anping took the festival charm and went out of the Inner History Mansion, seeing that it was still early, it was impossible for Zhang Lu to get off work now, so he went back to Lantian Pavilion alone.

After returning to the pavilion, he told everyone about today's events, and everyone didn't know which one was better. Go out and gossip with the post officer, casually asking him which one is better. The post official replied without hesitation: "You say yes, what is cultivated belongs to yourself, and there is a victor in it, which is the same as military merit, and there are many more ripe fields!" "Everyone, you and I inquired word by word, and finally understood that the so-called "grass reclamation" is to open up the wasteland by yourself, and the government gives you 300 acres of wasteland to reclaim, and the year-end harvest belongs to you except for paying taxes. Ripe land is to use other people's cultivated acres of land, these cultivated land are cultivated, and choosing ripe land is actually collecting rent. If the title is high, it's okay, but the small hairpin can only be rebuilt, and the rent collected is just enough for one person to eat. Figureing out this made Zheng Anping very happy: his own inspiration moved, but he hit it crookedly!

When Zhang Lu came back in the evening, Zheng Anping told Zhang Lu about it, and Zhang Lu said repeatedly: "Mistake, mistake, mistake!" Thou shalt go with me and dig a road, and thou shalt not be buried between the acres of fields. Three hundred acres of wasteland, the cost of labor is not calculated, you can do it! Zheng Anping was speechless. In the end, Wuwang said: "Although the minister is young, it is difficult to do the rest of the work, and he does not dare to be lazy." It was the middle of summer, if you get its acres, the ministers are willing to spend it in the meantime, and they will do it early. ”

Zhang Lu saw that the matter had come to this point, and it was useless to say more, so he could only get by. Big deal, just pay taxes on all the harvest! However, he repeatedly told Zheng Anping that once he received the field house and entered the household registration, he must study Qin Law diligently, otherwise not only will it be difficult to build his career, but his butt will be opened and the flower will be small, and it will be common to cut off his nose and cut his hand or something, and it will not be good to get it, and he will not be able to keep even a few. Qin's law is strict, and it has been passed down in the Six Kingdoms for a long time, and several men nodded their heads very seriously, only the little slave made a red face.

Five days later, Zheng Anping came to the Inner History Mansion again, this time, he brought Mangwei, Chen Si, and Wuwang with him, leaving only the little slave and Gai Nie to watch the house. Hu Cao took Zheng Anping and his party to a wasteland designated for him. Here is more than 20 miles away from Zhangtai Palace in the east, and about 20 miles away from Fenghao, the former capital of Zhou Tianzi, in the south, it was the land of Jinggi of Zhou Tianzi, and with the fall of Zhou Tianzi and decayed into a wasteland, the walls are ruined everywhere, and the water conservancy facilities that once had were all abandoned. The east bank of Fengshui is almost entirely developed into fertile land, while the west bank is mainly wilderness. In order to open up to the west bank, Qin Neishi built a bridge on the Fengshui River, all of which were under the Huaili of Qiqiu, which was about the place where Zhou Tianzi executed prisoners. The townsfolk and the lisifs were also called to witness the allocation of the land.

Zheng Anping picked a section of wasteland near Fengshui, and under the command of the townsman and the villager, a group of people pulled a tape measure, measured out 300 acres of land, and laid piles in the field. Zheng Anping felt that this wasteland was even better than the land in Guanyi, and although the water conservancy facilities had been abandoned, it was not difficult to reorganize them. If you work hard, the harvest will not spoil. Wuwang could barely hold it back, and was about to go to work in the fields.

The townsman and the lifu took them together to Huaili on the east bank of the river. Since Zheng Anping's title is a hairpin, this is a title that can be used as a pavilion chief, which is comparable to the status of Li Qifu. Just at the opposite position of the west end of Huaili and the captain, the place where the three houses were demarcated and a new house was built for him. In the days when they were waiting for the new house to be built, all men who were more than six feet five inches tall had to learn Qin law in the township.

After making an appointment with the villagers, Zheng Anping returned to the pavilion and told the little slave and Gai Nie about the situation. Although Gai Nie is not very old and has just begun to change his voice, he has a strong physique, and his height has long exceeded six feet five inches, and he is also in the ranks of the school. In this way, only the little slave is left in the pavilion.

Zheng Anping's house broke ground, and Zheng Anping and the five of them also entered the township school and began to learn Qin law.

The law class is conducted by the township law officer, the township lieutenant. Every year, the township lieutenant regularly goes to the county (in Xianyang, it is the Inner History Office) to review the content of the law and conduct assessments. When he returned to the village, he was responsible for popularizing the legal provisions to the villagers; If a villager breaks the law because he does not understand the law, the township lieutenant shall be jointly and severally liable.

Zheng Anping began to think that the Qin Law must have stipulated something so strict that it was impersonal, but after a few days, Zheng Anping was relieved. It turns out that the Qin law does not only stipulate what is prohibited, but also includes a lot of reasonable behavioral guidance, comparing how many seeds should be sown in an acre of land, how the harvested grain should be stored, how iron tools should be used, and even how cattle should be harnessed to farm...... In short, all economic and military knowledge was within the limits of the Qin law, and all the life of the Qin people had to be carried out in the most reasonable and efficient way, and the slightest deviation would be punished.

It's not just about learning the law, it's about doing it – it's actually a hands-on lesson. Zheng Anping's five people happened to form a team, under the guidance of the township lieutenant, Xi Qi Formation, rushing and fighting, every time at this time, Gai Nie was extremely excited, often desperate, so it was easy to rush over the head and be slapped on the ass by the board.

Zheng Anping and Mang Wei have both served in the army, and Chen Si is also preparing to apply for the martial arts examination, and he has a foundation; Only Wuwang is a little worse, when he was in Donghongli, he played war with his partners, but where can he be familiar with the details of the military formation, he is often beaten.

There are also farming skills, and the skills of controlling oxen to plough the fields...... The practical classes of these contents are Wuwang's favorite, and they are conducted in the field that has just been allocated to them. In order to learn the technique of controlling the ox, the village lieutenant really rented a cow, put it on a rake, and went to plough the land. It doesn't cost money to rent a cow, but you have to bear the responsibility of raising cattle, and you have to pay for the death of the cow, and you have to pay for the death of the cattle. What makes Zheng Anping feel the most novel is that farmers are allowed to rent iron farm tools, and if the farm tools are broken, as long as the damaged farm tools are handed in, not only will they not be punished, but they can also be replaced with a new one unconditionally! Free cattle, free iron, this is simply a blessed land for farmers!
