After the four officials walked outside the city lord's palace, the three magistrates raised their fists at the magistrate: "Sir, this King Tao doesn't seem very appropriate. Should we discuss it in the long term..."
Zhizhou raised his hand to stop what they had not finished saying: "Be careful, the master is always the master. Obviously, since the three cities in Northern Xinjiang belong to King Xi, we should do our best to assist him."
The magistrate of Beicheng sighed: "But..."
Zhizhou interrupted him again: "There is no but, you must remember that the three cities in northern Xinjiang already belong to King Yi, and we must plan everything for King Yi in the future."
The magistrates of Maocheng and Jicheng also sighed, and then clasped their fists at the magistrate: "I will obey your teachings."
Zhizhou looked at the three magistrates and wanted to say something, but in the end he couldn't.
They are all poor people, and they would not stay in Northern Xinjiang if they had any way to move around.
In order for the people in Beicheng, Maocheng and Jicheng to live a better life, they have really paid a lot.
But their abilities are limited, and now they have encountered such a vassal king. I wonder if this is a good thing for the three cities in northern Xinjiang.
Zhizhou got on his horse and said, "I will stay in Beicheng these days. If you have anything, you can come to Zhizhou Mansion to see me. If anything happens, communicate more and don't do anything wrong."
After that, he rode away.
Looking at Zhizhou's old and hairless horse, and looking at Zhizhou's frayed outer robe, the three magistrates sighed in unison: Others make money as officials, but they lose money as officials.
Being an official in Northern Xinjiang can even cost you your pants.
Who can believe that each of them has patches on their underwear...
They hugged each other and said goodbye. Except for the magistrate of Beicheng, the magistrates of Maocheng and Jicheng all got on their own ox carts.
The magistrate of Maocheng County was the first to say: "Your Excellency is right. We must plan more for King Tao in the future. The three cities in northern Xinjiang have now become the fiefdoms of King Tao. No matter how different the relationship with other cities is, it seems that the magistrate will only It manages our three cities, so we can have more contacts on weekdays.”
The magistrate of Jicheng County nodded: "Yes, we will definitely watch and help each other from now on." He was already a grasshopper tied to a rope. He only hoped that King Xi would not think of enriching the people, otherwise the people of the three cities would be dead. That's great.
The Beicheng County Magistrate sighed: "At this point, we can only take one step at a time." Since the city was assigned to the feudal king, they, the county magistrates and prefectures, were naturally also assigned to the feudal king.
Unless the feudal king takes the initiative to let them leave, they will stay in the Northland forever.
With luck, the feudal king will replace them with his own people, and they can return to the staff to wait for reassignment.
But if they are unlucky, they will have to stay here forever.
The thoughts of the Beicheng County Magistrate are very complicated. He wants to leave Northern Xinjiang, but he is also worried that after leaving, trusting the county magistrate will bully the people? It really breaks his heart!
After hearing what the Beicheng County Magistrate said? Several people fell silent at the same time: Really? What can they do, other than just wait passively...
After meeting again, not only the officials here were in a gloomy mood, but even King Xi over there also went back to the room with worries.
Lan Ruyu was decorating the room at this time, when suddenly she was hugged by King Tan from behind.
Lan Ruyu patted King Xi's hand gently: "What's wrong? Are you being embarrassed?"
King Tao's voice was a little dull: "No, I just think there may be no way for you to live a good life."
Lan Ruyu smiled softly. It seemed that someone was stimulated by the actual situation in Northern Xinjiang!
He walked to the bedside with King Xi who was lying on him and sat down. Lan Ruyu naturally put his legs on King Xi's legs: "Is this the situation in Northern Xinjiang? You just have to do your best." And she has already prepared a backup plan, and I believe she will see results soon.
King Xi lowered his head and looked at the loose tiles on the ground: "My mother gave me silver, and I counted eight hundred thousand taels. If we keep this for ourselves, it may be enough for three lifetimes.
But what about Northern Xinjiang? I can't take you to hide in the city lord's mansion to eat hot and spicy food? But although these 800,000 taels sound like a lot, it is far from enough to build the three cities in Northern Xinjiang? The wind and sand were so strong that they didn't even have a place to live, let alone cultivate land.
If I use the money to build houses for them, I cannot guarantee that everyone will have a house to live in. I will not worry about scarcity but inequality. Northern Xinjiang already has its own balance. If I break it rashly, I am afraid that Northern Xinjiang will be in chaos. ..”
There was a sob in King Xi's voice. This was the difficult problem his father had given him. He, he, he was too difficult...
Seeing that King Xin was about to cry, Lan Ruyu sighed and stretched out his hand to hold King Xin's hand: "Just keep your money for yourself. Northern Xinjiang will definitely develop, and things like houses also need them." Just build it yourself.
People must be self-reliant in order to understand the meaning of hard work.
However, we can use money to purchase large quantities of raw materials from other cities and sell them to the people at relatively cheap prices. In this way, they can build houses at a cheap price and we will not lose money. At most, we will waste some manpower. good. "
King Tao looked at Lan Ruyu who treated him like a child with red eyes. After someone hurt him, the grievance in his heart was immediately magnified: "How can the people have money to buy materials? They can hardly eat."
Lan Ruyu patted his heart and reassured him: "Believe me, they will be fine, and you will definitely be a good vassal king." With a pure heart, he will consider the people, and he will naturally be the best vassal king.
Hearing the words "good vassal", King Ni subconsciously puffed up his chest: "Yes, Ruyu still understands him, he will definitely be a good vassal."
However, Ruyu keeps saying that people will have money, but where does that money come from?
King Tan thought about it seriously, and then his eyes lit up: "Ruyu, when you said that the people will have money, does the eldest sister want to give me money?" Jin Qing is the most profitable person that King Tan has ever seen.
After hearing what King Tan said, Lan Ruyu twitched the corner of her mouth: "Have you ever died?" She was thinking about her eldest sister's money. Did this kid have enough life?
King Tan: "..." Ruyu doesn't love him anymore!
Lan Ruyu stretched out her hand to help King Tan straighten his collar: "Except for silver, you can ask eldest sister for help with anything. I think your eight hundred thousand taels of silver are definitely enough."
It's better to be nice to your husband, because maybe he will be slapped into a cake by his eldest sister for committing suicide.
As long as money is involved, the eldest sister in her family is definitely a master who disowns all her relatives.
King Tan: "..." Was he threatened by his wife?
Jin Qing was tinkering with the latest weapon in her room at this time. She didn't know that someone had just been thinking about her getting the gold.
The boxes containing the loot were all neatly placed in her room. Jin Qing did not let 707 help her collect the gold into the system space.
Because she is a little confused now.
