"I won't interfere in your government affairs for the time being in the next few days, I will take my people around, experience the customs, and then start planning according to the situation here."

On the second day, Mei Berry didn't want to follow Xiang Yi, just let him give him a local guide.

In addition, the officials also arranged various living knots for Mei Berry to start research around the city.

The appearance of plum berries and the things they brought to the officials are very curious.

Some of the bold ones even took the initiative to talk to the officials, and this talk was full of dry goods.

When they sorted out the information in their hands and handed it to Meiberry according to Meiberry's request, Meiberry wanted to say that he had done a good job!

Before that, Plum Berry herself was not idle.

According to the system's electronic map, Meiberry soon discovered that there were many medicinal herbs in the mountains of this place.

"Also, the mountain here is the most marginal place in the Xianyun Mountain Range. There are many rare medicinal herbs in Xianyun Mountain, and I didn't think about it at first, but now I think about it carefully. The mountains here may be very suitable for the growth of medicinal herbs. ”

Mei Berry took the people all the way out of the city, and according to the electronic map, he wandered around the nearby mountains for half a day and picked some vintage medicines.

She planned to go back and hand it over to Tian Qi to concoct, and then give it to Xue Lao, Xue Lao would definitely be very happy.

However, when the plum berries were collecting medicine, it was obvious that there were traces of other people in the nearby mountains.

And more than one person,

Looking at the paths in this mountain, which are all artificially stepped on, it can be seen how much the people of Fucheng here like to enter the mountain.

Mei Berry couldn't help but open his mind and thought that if Mei You crossed here, it would not be easy to find something in the mountains.

The people here are really relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, how can they give you a standout?

"Looking at the people here in Fucheng, they are not lazy people, how can they live so bleakly?"

With these questions, Meiberry returned to Fucheng, and then Meiberry also paid special attention to the living conditions of the people in Fucheng on weekdays.

Everyone is very poorly dressed, although they are not clothed, but whether it is the color or style of clothing, it is obvious that it is a long time ago.

There are very few large-scale shops in Xianyao's Fucheng, not to mention any chain shops, which are even more nothing.

They are all small grocery stores, and they sell just daily groceries for ordinary people.

Not to mention Yunzhou Mansion City to this extent, even Fengning can't compare, but even so, Meiberry rarely sees a miserable look on the faces of the people here.

They live their ordinary lives, and they don't seem to feel hopeless because of material poverty.

This is not a change that can be brought about by the appearance of sweet potatoes and potatoes.

They don't seem to care.

"In such a poor city, who will come and who doesn't dislike Xianyao?"

Mei Berry wandered around Xianyao's Mansion for two days, and couldn't help but be speechless when she looked at the information received by the various officials.

Fengning, Zhaolin and other coastal counties are slightly better because of their geographical location.

Because Xie Chang knew that they were there, Mei Berry did not comment on the development situation, but I heard that the sweet girl who was born in Han Qian also said that in the early years, those things in Hanqi County were poor.

As the façade of a state, Fucheng is simply a little poorer than Hanjiao, and Tianya also specially flipped through and calculated the taxes of Fucheng in the past two years under the instructions of Mei Berry.

The tax is terrible low, and Tianya also flipped forward and flipped over, and it was inevitable to say some digressions when reporting to Meiberry.

Xianyao Mansion City is so poor, when Han Yu was hit by the snow disaster, the Mansion City also took all the money to disaster relief.

Although Tianya was young at that time, she vaguely remembered that someone from the court sent her to provide disaster relief.

"None of the money for the relief has been distributed."

Tianya's eyes were sad when she said this.

"They didn't even want our lives for the sake of corruption. If it weren't for Your Highness and the fact that they were here, everyone would have died in the snowstorm that year......"

Sweet Ya is learning to read and write, studying and doing things next to Meiberry, in fact, she has a faint sense of what the people she follows are doing.

But Tianya was only scared for a moment.

If it weren't for them, their family would have died long ago.

"So, they don't deserve it."

It is not worthy of the expectations and loyalty of the people.

Mei Berry thought so in his heart, and then put the sorted materials at hand and found Xiang Yi.

Xiang Yi looked at what Mei Berry had sent people to do in the past few days, and he was also impressed by the people brought by Mei Berry.

And Mei Berry prepared so many materials this time and asked himself questions, Xiang Yi was also expected, and this time he didn't say those high-sounding or unlistenable words, and answered all of Mei Berry's doubts frankly.

"In fact, I don't hide it from the county king, many people here in Fucheng make a living by hunting and selling mountain goods, although they also farm under the mountain.

However, the land is barren, and if it weren't for the appearance of sweet potatoes and potatoes promoted by the county king, there would not be enough food here every year. ”

"I see."

Mei Berry was very surprised, many people in a prefecture and city make a living from hunters, not to mention whether there are enough beasts in the mountains, just rely on these people, it is very strange to think that they can make a living by hunting.

"Hui Junjun, many years ago, the epidemic appeared in this place, and many people died, and many people in the city moved in from outside."

After Xiang Yi finished speaking, Mei Berry remembered the content recorded in Zhou Ziyao's book - "Xianyao is here, middle-aged men are the majority".

At that time, Mei Berry felt a little strange when he looked at it, but when combined with Xiang Yi's words, Mei Berry felt that there was some big news here.

"Most of the people in Fucheng were born in the army."

"Where is the soldier ......?"

When Mei Berry heard Xiang Yi's answer, she immediately thought of the remnants of the veterans in Yanpingguan.

But obviously, the people in the city don't have too many disabilities, obviously they are not veterans, but they moved here under other circumstances.

Suddenly, a conjecture crossed Mei Berry's heart: "Are you the ...... of Prince Changping?" ”

Mei Berry didn't finish speaking, and nodded to Yi.

"When the prince's family was imprisoned, I was ambushed while I was out on errands and couldn't go back to help.

Although I have been here incognito for many years, I have been working for His Royal Highness, just to wait for His Highness to avenge His Highness.

Now there is hope, and it is an honor for the Junjun to help His Royal Highness so wholeheartedly! ”

After Xiang Yi finished speaking, he was about to kneel down for Mei Berry, but fortunately, Mei Berry found out quickly, and he stepped forward to learn the actions in the TV series to support the other party.

However, people really wanted to kneel, and they didn't have the strength to take it at all, but as a result, her little arms and legs couldn't help people, but she was directly taken down.

With a "bang", Mei Berry's kneeling voice was louder than Xiang Yi's.

This scene directly frightened the middle-aged man's face pale.

"Junjun, you don't matter, right?"

At this time, without waiting for Meiberry to call him up, he hurriedly got up by himself, and then helped Meiberry to help him up.

"It's okay, don't kneel at every turn, talk to me carefully first, QAQ."

At that "kneeling" just now, Mei Berry felt that her knees were going to die of pain!

But, to get down to business, she can't cry QvQ!

When the rebellion of the prince of Changping occurred, Xiang Yi and other cronies of the prince were leading troops to perform official duties outside.

Before the prince's accident, they were also ambushed outside, with countless casualties.

In the end, they organized the rest of the people and wanted to rush back to the imperial capital, but they were powerless to return to the sky.

Later, Gong Xie ...... Ah, Lord Xie brought His Royal Highness's handwritten blood letter and the news that His Royal Highness is still alive, and I waited until then I listened to Lord Xie's words and came to Xianyao's dormant strength to accumulate strength for His Royal Highness. ”

Thanks to the arrival of these people, Xianyao Mansion City can still exist until now, and after that, it has deceived the imperial court for many years with such a dilapidated scene.

Hearing that these people's sacrifices were so great, Mei Berry couldn't help but rub her knees and asked, "Then you deceived the imperial court, in fact, the poverty here is fake?" ”

"If you go back to Junjun, that's not it, we're really poor.

But fortunately, every year, we cheat the court and hide enough taxes to eat. ”

Plum berries: ......

Plum Berry: Wow, pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger!

Xiang Yi: Except for poverty, everything else is fake.

Plum berries: ...... Actually, what I hope for is poor is also false.
