Looking at the figure in front of him, Yang Shaofeng rubbed his eyes in disbelief, but after repeatedly confirming it several times, he found that he was not wrong.

He quickly got out of the saddle and dismounted. Yang Shaofeng bowed to the visitor: "Great visits to Grandfather!"

Zhu Laosi, who was riding on the horse, snorted coldly and ordered: "Go on the horse and talk while walking."

After Yang Shaofeng turned over and the horse, Wuxin and several guards separated the two from the followers, Zhu Laosi said helplessly: "Guess, how many households are there in the Ming Dynasty? How many Dingkou?"

Before Yang Shaofeng could answer, Zhu Laosi sneered: "Fortunately, this time the Huangcai was rebuilt, and the Jinyiwei and the Inner Official Supervision sent people to stare.

Comparing the 56 million dingkou in the first year of Yongle, to the 50 million dingkou in the second year of Yongle, and then to the 51 million dingkou in the third year of Yongle, in the next ten years, the population of our Ming Dynasty has almost never increased!

It was not until this time that I rebuilt the yellow book that I suddenly realized that my Ming Dynasty’s Dingkou had already exceeded 60 million, but these Dingkou were hidden!"

Haha laughed loudly, Zhu Laosi's voice was full of bone chill: "Almost everyone in the world knows it, but I, the emperor, don't know it!"

Yang Shaofeng was silent for a while before speaking: "Grandfather, please calm down."

Zhu Laosi shouted, "Stop the anger? How do you calm me down? They are all lying on my Ming Dynasty and sucking blood! I wish I could kill them all now!"

He spat with hatred, and Zhu Laosi continued, "But for the first time, I discovered that the emperor is not omnipotent. If I kill them all, who will manage this country for me? Depend on you? You are just a person after all, and I cannot let you take care of everything."

It seemed that just to vent my dissatisfaction, Zhu Laosi did not give Yang Shaofeng a chance to speak, but patted Yang Shaofeng on the shoulder hard, and then said: "This time I went to Wanquan Right Guard, I gave you Shangfang Sword, and Wang Ming Flag Label will also send someone to you.

This time, the people in the court wanted you to go to Wanquan Right Guard to preside over the border city. I did not object because I wanted to see if you could make a new situation there. I also wanted to see the questions you wrote during the exam and the problems you discovered later. I would like to try them in that border city new city to see if you can find a solution.

In addition, you are protecting yourself. The tiger talisman is already in your hands. The guard stations around Wanquan Right Guard can be called at your disposal. Once you find something wrong, come back immediately. Everything is the best. Even if you suffer grievances, it doesn’t matter. As long as you come back, I can vent your anger for you. Remember?"

Yang Shaofeng sniffed, nodded vigorously and said, "Don't worry, grandfather, just rely on those Tatars and those borers, you can't do anything to your grandson.

As for the new city in the border city, my grandson will also be careful. At that time, you must ask you to see what the Jiangnan in the box looks like."

Zhu Laosi nodded, smiled, and said to Yang Shaofeng: "Okay, please restrain your temperament this time. Don't always think about fighting and killing anything. When you come back, I will promote you and let you propose marriage in a grand manner!"

After saying that, Zhu Laosi suddenly knocked his horse's belly and galloped towards Shuntian Mansion, leaving only the back that was getting farther and farther away in the wind and snow.

Zhu Laosi ran away, but Wuxin waved to the eunuchs behind him, and then said to Yang Shaofeng: "Your Majesty has ordered people to prepare fifty sets of armor. From then on, you will be your personal guards and will be paid by the clan's mansion."

After Yang Shaofeng responded, Wuxin led a group of followers to run wildly in the direction where Zhu Laosi left, leaving Yang Shaofeng standing there.

Even though he knew that Zhu Laosi was winning people's hearts, Yang Shaofeng still felt that the wind and sand were quite strong.

Lin Yu quietly followed Yang Shaofeng and whispered: "Brother-in-law, Your Majesty has come to see you in person. You have such a great face."

Yang Shaofeng glanced at Lin Yu and snorted coldly, "Give me instructions. Your Majesty has never been here today. Please tell them not to be careless."

...

The border city is different from other cities. It does not belong to the General Administration and the Dusi Department. Its direct jurisdiction is the Ministry of Revenue, and its immediate superior is Xia Yuanji, and even the Qingli Department of the Ministry of Revenue.

This very different jurisdiction structure also caused the management of border cities to be very different from ordinary cities.

The largest institution here is the Border City Tijue Department, the largest commander is from the ninth rank of the Attendant Hanlin, but the two deputy directors are from the sixth rank, and even the lowest rank of the official title is from the ninth rank. Moreover, this Border City Tijue Department is different from the Yankee Department and the Shibotei Department. This Border City Tijue Department, which is composed of four people, also has a Border City Thousand Household Office, and three yamen runners similar to local yamen.

What makes people even more inconspicuous is that the Zhengshi Juju has not yet taken office, but the two deputy directors and officials have already arranged in place, and even the Qianhu Office and the Yassan runners have already been in place.

To put it simply, these three officials with offices, plus one thousand soldiers with offices, plus a hundred and ten unofficial yamen runners, manage an empty city, and then quietly wait for the premiere to come to take office.

The official from the border city's Tiju clerk looked up at the sky. Seeing the scattering snowflakes, he couldn't help but stomp his feet and said to Liang Jinglun and Qi Mutang, two deputy Tiju clerks: "Mr. Tiju has not arrived yet. Why should Liang Tiju and Qi Tiju rest in the sedan chair for a while first. The subordinate sent someone to stare at the road. When the Master. Tiju clerks arrive, the two Tiju clerks will greet each other?"

Liang Jinglun shook his head and said, "No need, I'll wait here. I guess Mr. Tim is coming soon."

Qi Mutang nodded and said, "Mr. Liang said so much. Those Tatars are waiting in the wind and snow. How can we rest?"

After looking at the direction of Rali Timur and others, Liang Jinglun's expression was inevitably a little disdainful, and he couldn't help but whisper: "Those barbarians, now they learn from my Chinese etiquette, bah!"

Qi Mutang frowned and said, "Liang Tiju holds down his voice. What's going on in our border city's Tiju Department? You should know in your heart that you must not ruin Yang Tiju's major affairs."

Liang Jinglun nodded, stomped his feet back and forth on the ground several times before saying: "In such a windy and snowy weather, if something can warm your feet, it must be excellent."

While he was talking, Liang Jinglun suddenly exclaimed, pointed to a few black dots in the distance and said, "I guess it's Yang Tiju and his team."

The sound of horse hooves was getting closer and closer with the whistling wind, and the few black dots in the distance were becoming more and more obvious. First of all, if a man had a white brocade robe, he would really be embarrassed to death by adding a square sky painting halberd in his hand, and would be ashamed of Zilong.

Just now, after a while, a thick layer of snow fell on Yang Shaofeng and Taxue's body. If it weren't for the continuous exhalation of heat from their mouths and noses, it would feel more like a snow sculpture than a living person.

Everyone says that if you are safe, it will be sunny. This kind of nonsense will not work here. If you look at the wind and snow in the border city, you will probably have to die.

Shaking his body, making the whole person look a little more energetic. Yang Shaofeng simply bypassed Liang Jinglun, Qi Mutang and Cheng Han, and turned to the rushing Shuli Tiemur.

Just now, the two men of Liang Jinglun and the other ones were consciously or unintentionally squeezed out, and then they greeted each other with a smile, spread their arms and said, "Welcome, my brother, you are here. I wonder if you are satisfied with the two mastiffs I gave you last time?"

Yang Shaofeng went up to him, hugged Shuli Timur fiercely, and then said, "Of course, one was just robbed by the robber of the Crown Prince of the Ming Dynasty, so I feel so sorry for me!"

The two looked at each other and laughed again. After Yang Shaofeng waited for Liang Jinglun, Qi Mutang and Cheng Han to come to pay their respects, he said to Tsai Timur: "Since the first snowfall started, I have been worried about you. I wonder if this snow will affect the survival of your tribe?"

Seeing Yang Shaofeng talking about serious matters in the wind and snow, Sali Timur's face also became a little bitter, and he whispered: "It's always better than in previous years. After all, I know that the border market is about to open. Many merchants have already gone out of the frontier, and fewer people die than in previous years."

Yang Shaofeng nodded, and while leading the snow forward, he spoke: "I won't say much more about the extra nonsense. I want to know what you need most now? If it's food, it's okay. I will ask someone to find a way to do it as much as you want.

As for the forage, to be honest, this thing is not too much, and it is very troublesome to mobilize it, so this may not help you."

Sali Timur nodded seriously and said, "No, we don't need these, or we need these, but we can't ask for your things for nothing. Even the Grand Master told us in this way."

After considering it, Tsarimur continued: "We are willing to exchange cattle and sheep for food, charcoal, and we are willing to exchange cattle and sheep for food. In short, if we can trade fairly, we are very satisfied."

Yang Shaofeng nodded and said to Shuli Timur: "Don't worry, we will buy cattle and sheep and collect them according to the usual market price, and we will never be lowered due to wind and snow.

Similarly, we provide you with food, and I can also assure you that it is definitely the usual market price and will never increase the price due to wind and snow.

As for things like charcoal, I personally think this thing is just average. It is definitely no problem to be used by superiors like Taishi, but how can ordinary herders afford it?"

Salitemur forced a smile and said, "Isn't there any cow dung or something? In short, you can keep warm and not freeze to death. This is great."

Yang Shaofeng pointed to the west outside the border city and smiled, saying, "Don't worry. When I came, Your Majesty once told me to treat the brothers of the Tatar tribe like me, the people of the Ming Dynasty, so I have prepared for it to ensure that all herders can spend the winter warmly this year!"

Seeing that Yang Shaofeng said so affirmatively, although he was a little suspicious, he still said gratefully: "I thank Brother Yang for the herdsmen first. You are the Bilege who was sent by Changshengtian to save them!"
