Xu Jingzong also replied: "Now it is the time to collect grain. Many laborers have gone to collect grain, and the road has been repaired. This road is five kilometers away, connecting thirteen villages in eight counties and around Chang'an, and to the north bank of the Weishui River."

Li Zheng looked at the map and a transportation line was almost completed.

From then on, the entire transportation route around Chang'an was opened.

In the future, the cargo shipment will be faster and can also drive more business to Jingyang.

Daniu ran and said, "Teacher, there are many officials coming outside, right at the entrance of the village, saying that he is coming to Jingyang to measure the land."

"Let them all come in."

Li Shimin's moves quickly, which allowed officials from the Ministry of Revenue to come and measure the land, and some craftsmen came to learn the method of forging iron.

Everyone came to the horse circle, and the leading official from the Ministry of Revenue said to Li Zheng: "I have met the Duke of Jingyang County. We are ordered by Your Majesty to come and measure the land."

A group of blacksmiths walked up and said, "We are here to learn the new method of wrought iron from the county marquis."

Li Zheng said to Li Yifu: "You take these craftsmen to the blacksmith shop, and I know the method of wrought iron."

"Here." Li Yifu said to these craftsmen: "Follow down."

Looking at these officials from the Ministry of Revenue, Li Zheng said to Xu Jingzong: "You take them to measure the land if you have a small amount of land, I will settle the accounts with you."

Xu Jingzong hurriedly said, "Don't worry, the county marquis."

This time, there were many officials from the Ministry of Revenue, and the amount of 10,000 acres of land would take several days.

It was not until Li Zheng put his Jingyang County seal on the land deed that he received a systematic response.

Territory: 14,600 acres, population of 19,900

Mission: Reclaiming 3,000 acres of wasteland

Mission Reward: Crop Stage Three

The Ministry of Revenue needs to prepare two more land deeds, one included in the Ministry of Revenue and the other submitted to His Majesty.

Li Zheng let out a long sigh and looked at the Jingyang territory map that has doubled.

Li Yifu and Xu Jingzong congratulated each other.

The next thing is to reclaim wasteland. What Jingyang has been doing is to reclaim wasteland.

The villagers in Jingyang are already familiar with the wastelands that can be cultivated.

The magistrate of Jingyang County came to congratulate again, and looked at the magistrate of Jingyang County and was still crying while congratulating.

Li Zheng looked at his appearance and said, "You said you would congratulate me, why are you crying?"

The magistrate of Jingyang County sucked his nose and said, "I am happy to be the official. Is the young man from that time unhappy now that he is the official of the county magistrate in a blink of an eye?"

"Okay, okay." Li Zheng poured him a cup of tea.

The magistrate of Jingyang County said again: "The magistrate has been the magistrate for ten years, and he has been the same magistrate for ten years. Now I am happy to see a noble official from our Jingyang County. I am so happy."

Li Zheng said worriedly: "Why do I think I feel sad the more I cry?"

Jingyang County Magistrate Lianlian said: "The officials are not sad, really aren't."

After saying that, the magistrate of Jingyang County wiped his nose again.

Li Zheng looked at him and said, "Why don't you have a cup of tea first."

The magistrate of Jingyang waved his hands repeatedly and wiped his tears and said, "The magistrate is just a small county magistrate who can't afford to pour tea for the magistrate. The magistrate has been a county magistrate for so many years and believes that he has a good governance. Although he has always received a salary of ten stones for a year, he is really happy for the magistrate."

The more Li Zheng listened, the more he felt something was wrong.

The magistrate of Jingyang County said again: "The salary is only ten stones a year, so the family can barely live, and you have to save some food and clothing everywhere."

Li Zheng: “…”

"In two or three years, from a small book boy to a county magistrate who can still marry a princess, I am really happy to be the official, so happy."

Li Zheng said: "Why do I listen to you the more I feel like you are crying? Are you really happy?"

The magistrate of Jingyang County sobbed twice and suddenly hugged Li Zheng's leg.

“…”

"If you cry, just hold my thighs and do something, don't rub it on me." Li Zheng pulled his legs hard.

The magistrate of Jingyang County sobbed and said, "Marquis of the County, the officials are really happy. If you don't believe me, look at the officials' eyes."

“…”

"It's clear that I feel a lot of grievance!" Li Zheng scolded.

After being a county magistrate for more than ten years, can you not feel wronged? Jingyang County Magistrate held Li Zheng's leg and became the county duke in just two years, ranking first title under the Duke of the State.

People are more than people, and the magistrate of Jingyang County cried even louder. "Although life is hard, the lower officials have a salary of ten stones a year. Now seeing that the county marquis can be promoted, the lower officials feel that it is worth it now."

Li Zheng said impatiently: "Okay! I'll help you think of a way to get you promoted."

The cry of the Jingyang County Magistrate stopped abruptly, and he looked up at Li Zheng, "Are you serious?"

Li Zheng: "Save it!"

The magistrate of Jingyang County then let go, "The county magistrate is so polite. How can the subordinate officials be recommended by the county marquis?"

Why does the county magistrate who was crying just now seem a little reserved now?

Li Zheng felt a chill, "Don't be polite, if you are polite, I'm afraid you will be slammed to death at my doorstep."

The magistrate of Jingyang County smiled and said, "The county marquis is still the same as joking."

"What official position do you want?"

The magistrate of Jingyang County said: "No need for any official position. Now the county marquis is still the Chang'an ruling. Just give him a small official in Jingzhao Prefecture."

"I understand, you go back first." Li Zheng said.

"Then the Xiaguan will wait for the good news from the county marquis. In the future, the Xiaguan will do business to the county marquis."

The big bull came hurried again, "Teacher, there were many people coming outside, saying that they were the teacher's subordinates."

The Chang'an Order was Jingzhao Yin, who was in charge of some errands in Chang'an. In a sense, he was the chief of the capital, and the county duke was the chief of the local area.

This county duke is just a virtual title, and the Chang'an Order is the real official.

Li Zheng said weakly: "Bring it in, you must always get to know your subordinates."

Li Shimin gave himself a lot of names, and Li Zheng felt a headache.

Dahu brought more than a dozen officials, in addition to a few civil servants in Jingzhao Prefecture, there were more than a hundred officials in Jingzhao Prefecture.

Li Zheng immediately found a familiar character among the group of people, "Brother Chongyi!"

Li Chongyi smiled and said, "Li Zheng, I am also your subordinate now."

"Wait! Why are you here? Aren't you at the Ministry of Rites?"

Li Chongyi explained: "My father and Your Majesty have arranged for me to be transferred. Now he is the young minister of Jingzhao Prefecture."

It is easy to do things with acquaintances, and the young Yin of Jingzhao Prefecture is the second-in-command of Chang'an Order.

Pulling Li Chongyi to the side, Li Zheng whispered: "What should I do with Chang'an Order?"

"It's very simple to follow the dispatch of the Wei Mansion and the DPRK. On weekdays, you have to take charge of the dispatch of the market in Chang'an."

Li Zheng whispered: "Are you busy with this errand?"

Li Chongyi also whispered: "I'm quite busy. You have to take care of all things big and small. If something happens, you will be the first to find you."

Li Zheng took a deep breath, "Can I get sick?"
