Chapter 1738 Sharpening the Knife and Raising the Wool ([-])
Qi Ke's gaze swept over their faces slowly, seeing with satisfaction that they couldn't bear his aura a little bit.

"You don't want to do anything, as long as you want the army to do everything, no problem, then follow the rules of the army." Qi Ke's eyes fell on the face of the county lord again, "I know it's a hundred miles away from the county. Within the scope of the yamen, there are many wild lands in the hands of the yamen, which are used to build refugee camps, and let them open up wasteland to cultivate the land, and the harvested food is divided among the refugees, the thousand households, and the yamen."

"These days, the population is the tax. Zhang County can't keep the people, so thousands of households want it. The army pays for everything. Naturally, the army takes the bulk. The county gives out land, and the share is regarded as land rent. Oh, yes Now, the county lord is about to step down, so let this achievement be given to his successor, I believe that we, Shu Qianhu, will get along well with the new county lord."

Shu Ying tilted her chin slightly, nodded a little complacently but pretended to be calm.

The county lord sitting above lowered his eyes slightly, and his eyeballs moved wildly.

I'm a little excited.

According to Qi Ke, this performance is very good.

"Well, it's feasible. Go back to the house and check the fish scale map to see which land is vacant and circle it first, so as not to accidentally step on the owner's land."

"Thank you, Mr. County Lord."

Qi Ke has no intention of looking down on this county venerable who immediately jumped out and wanted to take some credit. People with quick brains like this are good partners, and he offered to show the fish scale map, which is too good.

"No!"

"No, no, no!"

"Impossible, the terrain in the county is complicated. How can there be any surplus land to set up refugee camps? What if the refugees misunderstand that they can settle down? It is easy to ask God to send God away. If Zhang County misunderstands even more, we will detain people and not return them. Doesn't this affect the relationship between the two counties?"

The big landlords here can jump right away. The area a hundred miles away from the county border is clearly drawn, so they know how much of the large land is their property. If it is really occupied by the army, it will be used as a refugee camp , then they will lose a lot.

"Why not? Do you have the final say?" Qi Ke asked knowingly, with an innocent smile on his face, "As expected of the big landlords, they know more about how much idle land is a hundred miles away from the county than the county lord. "

"Well, how do you guys know so well whether there is any idle land in the county?" The county lord said something, it's a matter of whether he can make a real achievement, so he definitely doesn't care about anything else.

"This one……"

The county lord's question touched their hearts again, admitting why he had to admit that there was hidden land over there if he knew it, otherwise it wasn't his own land at all, so why bother whether the army occupied it or not.

Several big landlords were silent in unison.

Shu Qianhu, Xianzun, and Qi Ke looked at them who were silent with kind faces, as if they didn't understand why they were speechless.

After an embarrassing and suffocating short silence, these big landlords moved their eyelids at each other, flirted with each other, and silently reached an agreement that only they understood.

"There are more and more refugees outside the county. It is impossible for us to take them in forever. Even if they are allowed to open up wasteland, once Zhang County asks them to return to their hometowns, those lands will still be abandoned, which is even more pity."

This time, he changed to a man who looked very upright to speak, so as not to be scolded by Qi Ke with a stick if he said something wrong.
