    While taking a deep breath, I turned my head. Sister Qingxia's pretty face was very close to me. Not to mention her eyes and lips, even her eyebrows and eyelashes could be clearly seen.  Sister Qingxia¡¯s lips are not the plump type, but they are not small and exquisite either. The lips are very red and the lip lines are very clear. Even without makeup, her lips look like they have lipstick on them.  With her small nose and thick black long eyelashes, her hair was a little loose due to rest, she really felt like a sleeping beauty.  The corners of her mouth were slightly raised, wondering what kind of sweet dream Sister Qingxia was having.  In addition, her pupils are also very beautiful, dark brown pupils, as crystal clear as gems in the dark night. Uh, why can I see pinched pupils?  The young master blinked innocently and showed a bright smile.  "Are you awake? If you are, could you please move your feet first?" Sister Qingxia was squinting in confusion, as if she hadn't fully realized it yet. After moving her feet, she realized where her legs were resting.  With a low cry, Sister Qingxia quickly retracted her legs and buried her face in the sleeping bag again, but soon, she poked her head out of the sleeping bag again.  Her pretty face was as red as the delicate rose petals, and her eyes were full of shame.  "Young Master, I'm sorry." The words he said were not much different from the mosquito's greeting, which made me hold my ears open until I could vaguely understand what it meant.  "It's okay. I am a person who exercises every day after all. If I let you stress for a while, will I blame you?" I said with a smile. Seeing the blush on her pretty face, I felt more and more amused by such a pretty girl.  Girls are a great pleasure.  "Young Master, you'd better get up quickly. You should have missed breakfast by now." Sister Qingxia couldn't bear the burning gaze of this young master, so she quickly got out of her sleeping bag and rushed to the cabin door like she was running away.  He opened the door and rushed out.  The corner of my mouth is slightly curved, and I look at the sunlight coming in from outside the cabin door. It is indeed a good weather today.  After washing up, I walked out of the cabin and saw several tribes playing poker and landlords on this small deck. When they saw me, they quickly threw away the cards and they all stood up and started playing at me.  Say hello.  "What, have you finished exercising early?" I raised my eyes and looked at this guy.  The leader, Li Yuanfang, nodded twice and said cautiously: "Sir, you can't blame the brothers. The space on this ship is too small. We are worried that it will affect your rest, so" Li Yuanfang looked at him with admiration as he spoke.  Sister Qingxia glanced at her.  Sister Qingxia¡¯s cheeks turned red and her eyes were shy when she heard this, while I, the young master, was so angry at Li Yuanfang¡¯s words that his face was filled with anger. Damn it, I am the unlucky guy who didn¡¯t eat the mutton and got into trouble.  "Don't be verbose, I'm awake now, you all go exercise for me. The territory is not big, so you can run around in circles on the deck for me. Well, I can't rest until I complete half the circle." I have a vicious expression on my face.  , so scared that Li Yuanfang and others trembled. How dare they bargain with me, they rushed straight to the other end of the deck.  After Li Yuanfang accepted the order with a smiling face, he woke up all the guys who were still squatting in the cabin and started to do morning exercises on the big ship.  Seeing this guy running around shouting slogans and looking very energetic, I finally looked a little better. When I turned around, I saw Sister Qingxia's cheeks were still flushed and her expression was still bright.  I was ashamed and annoyed, but there was no way to explain why this happened.  "It's okay, that guy is joking. If you can't get angry anymore, just go and beat him up. How about I cheer for you?" I winked at Sister Qingxia and smiled, in exchange for this girl one after another.  I rolled my eyes in shame and annoyance, then turned to look at the scenery on the river bank. After staying on the boat for almost four days, I finally arrived at the pier in Hancheng County. This pier is really not big. In my opinion, it is like traveling in later generations.  Attraction, the pocket code specially used to dock tourist boats. Every time, only one large boat about ten feet long can be docked. But when I jumped off the deck and stood on the pier, I had already seen the people rushing towards this place.  Zheng Ye was greeted by the side.  "Sir, you are finally here. I have been waiting here for almost two days." "Haha, thank you for your hard work. The speed of this boat is really too slow. It took almost four days to sit on it. By the way,  Is the dock in Hancheng County so big?" I looked around curiously. Well, the area around the dock seems to be just a village, but Hancheng County is not here.  "Sir, Hancheng County has never had any specialties. This pier is mostly used by fishermen, so it's naturally not that big." Zheng Ye said with a smile.  "I see." I nodded. In fact, coal is a very bad trading resource. However, nowadays, there are still not many people using coal. Coal use is quite popular in the Dongdu area. However, the surrounding coal mines,  There is already enough supply, and there is no need to buy coal from other places.  "By the way, how are the arrangements here?" Walking along the wooden pier,??At this time, I still felt like my feet were shaking.  It looks like the sequelae of being on a boat for a long time.  "Don't worry, sir. The younger one has already bought two houses in Hancheng County. They can accommodate at least sixty or seventy people there. If they are squeezed in, everyone here can live in them. In addition, in addition, in  Outside the county town, craftsmen who arrived earlier have built more than a dozen houses and stables" Zheng Ye explained to me one by one very logically.  ¡°Well, it was done well. Not only did we buy a ready-made house, but we also bought some land and built some houses and stables. These are enough for the people here to live in first.  "Sir, the county magistrate and the county captain are waiting over there, do you want to go over first?" Zheng Ye turned around and looked at me, and asked me in a low voice.  Only then did I see two middle-aged men walking towards this side not far from the pier. ????????????????????????????????????????????? off out of a distance.  "Yang Qiong, the Prime Minister of Hancheng County, and Han Xiong, the Lieutenant of Hancheng County, have met Qi Guogong." The older, fair-skinned and gentle guy is the County Cheng, and the one next to him with dark skin, thick eyebrows and big eyes is the County Lieutenant.  I also stepped forward with a smile and said hello. I wouldn¡¯t know if I didn¡¯t fight, but I would be shocked if I did. Damn, these two are actually disciples of King Yang Xiong of Guande. Well, they can be considered disciples. There is no such thing as a disciple in this era.  .  Yang Qiong and King Guande are from the same family, and are the grandsons of Yang Xiong's distant cousin. The county captain Han Xiong was once Yang Xiong's personal soldier. Because of his ability, Yang Xiong generously recommended him as an official. In addition, he originally stayed here.  The current county magistrate is also a subordinate of King Guande Yang Xiong. The entire county is equivalent to being controlled by King Guande. No wonder this guy can help me if he says he can help me. This makes me secretly alarmed by the power of this kind of family.  Heart.  These two told me that King Yang Xiong of Guande had something to say. The reason why they stayed was because Yang Xiong felt that they were more able to obey the leadership of Shangfeng and were very talented. They stayed here just to assist me.  Well, I accept such flattery calmly. I also want to ask these two about some affairs of this county and tell them that I am a very obedient county magistrate. As long as you can obediently listen to my words.  , follow my instructions, then I dare not say you will be promoted, but you will have a great chance of making a fortune.  In addition, after asking, I realized that no matter which state or county you want to build roads, you can only do it yourself. For example, in Hancheng County, the court requires that the local area must ensure that it is repaired once a year to at least ensure the traffic between the roads and the outside world.  However, if you want the state to pay for it, that is simply nonsense.  The main reason is that Hancheng County is not on the country's main traffic road, so the local government can only send out corvees to repair the roads, which takes about one month every year to repair the roads.  Or something.  However, the number of adult men in this county is only over 10,000, and there are more than 10,000 people. For only one month a year, in addition to repairing roads, they also need to repair city walls, and even have other miscellaneous matters. Therefore, if you want to build roads, you can only rely on corvee labor.  Total bullshit.  After chatting some more about the situation in Hancheng County, I learned that the annual tax income of Hancheng County is about 15,000 guan after the grain and silk paid by Hancheng County every year. After hearing this news  , I am very sad and speechless.  This is about one-tenth of my monthly income. If I go to a horse race, no, a wine and horse trade, my income will be at least fifty times the annual tax or even more.  Ten thousand yuan, the tax of a county is actually so little. But then I thought about it, the tax of this era is still dominated by agriculture, and Hancheng County, with seven mountains, one water and two fields, is remote and has no  There is income from other industries, so fifteen thousand guan is already considered good.  After one year, the tax revenue of the entire Sui Dynasty was said to be only a few million yuan, and it was spread over thousands of prefectures and counties, which was not a small amount.  But this is fine, in such a remote and remote area, nothing has developed yet, so that I can achieve better results.  It¡¯s a pity that although these two are my subordinates, they are the subordinates of Yang Xiong, the king of Guande. They can be used, but there are many things that it is best not to let these two know.  ¡°Perhaps after I develop, the Great Sui Dynasty begins to fall into chaos, and I will look at the reactions of these two brothers to confirm whether to include these two people in my circle.  After being polite, I followed these two to Hancheng County. Hancheng County, which is nearly ten miles away from the bank of the Yellow River, is really not big. The city walls are only two feet high at most, and they are all made of yellow mud.  That¡¯s right, I can¡¯t help but roll my eyes.  Most of the houses outside the city are still mud houses.  Only a few landlords or wealthy households used bricks and stones to build their buildings.
