Beginning to become the second ancestor

Chapter 187 Chapter 185
The household department belongs to one of the six departments, and it is a very powerful yamen.

Song Yuanxuan went to the Ministry of Households and went directly to Zeng Guoming, a member of the household department. He received 3 taels of silver from him last time, so he will definitely meet him.

Sure enough, Zeng Guoming came out very soon. He led Song Yuanxuan and Lu Fang into a reception room, and said with a smile on his face: "Young Master Song is now Huiyuan, and he is really famous all over the world. what's the matter?"

Song Yuanxuan arched his hands and said: "Master Zeng, I have five guards here. They lost their household registration because of the war, so I would like to ask you to register for them again."

Zeng Guoming's eyes fell on Lu Fang's face, and then he said in a low voice, "My lord, are these all deserters?"

Song Yuanxuan nodded, and said with a slight smile: "Master Zeng really has sharp eyes, they are indeed deserters."

Lu Fang hurriedly said: "My lord..."

Before he finished speaking, Lin Yuanxuan waved his hand and said softly: "Lu Fang, you don't need to explain. The definition of deserters is set by the court. No matter what the reason is, it is not valid."

Only then did Lu Fang stop his voice, without any unhappy expression on his face.

Zeng Guoming took a few glances at Lu Fang, then nodded and said, "My lord, where did they become deserters?"

"Tengzhou, Lixian County." Song Yuanxuan smiled slightly, with a bit of calm in his eyes, and didn't say much.

Zeng Guoming breathed a sigh of relief, then nodded and said: "This matter will be easy to handle! The matter on the Li County side is easy to solve. If it is on the side of the Frontier Army, I really need to spend some effort. It will take at least a few days for one person. Thousand taels of silver.

For Li County, 100 taels of silver per person is enough. It’s not a big deal. I’ll handle it. Last time I accepted such a big love from the young master, it’s not difficult to deal with such a trivial matter. "

Song Yuanxuan cupped his hands and said, "Thank you Master Zeng."

Lu Fang's eyes were a bit complicated. He had begged others before to restore his household registration, but there was no result.

All he asked for were military officers, but civil servants didn't look down on military officers in the first place, and the Ministry of Household Affairs was one of the most important yamen in the court, so naturally they didn't care about these trivial matters of several hundred taels of silver.

But in Song Yuanxuan's case, it can be solved in one sentence, which just proves that there are people in the court who are easy to handle.

"Lu Fang, please write down your situation and give it to Mr. Zeng. You will be fine after you get a new household registration certificate." Song Yuanxuan turned his head and said to Lu Fang.

The five people responded quickly, Zeng Guoming got up and went out, summoned a small official, gave a few instructions, and led the five people away.

When turning around, Zeng Guoming looked at Song Yuanxuan and said softly, "Mr. Song, do you have anything else to do here?"

"Master Zeng, I want to buy a piece of land in Li County. All the land in the world is under the management of the Ministry of Household Affairs. Please help me see if there is any land that can be bought there."

Song Yuanxuan responded, and his eyes fell on Zeng Guoming's face.

Zeng Guoming quickly said: "Young Master, I'll send someone to take a look at the map of Li County."

After finishing speaking, he got up and called the little official over again. After waiting for about half a stick of incense, the little official brought over the map.

Zeng Guoming flipped through the pages, then said in a daze, "My lord, Li County is really strange that there are no aristocratic families and rich peasants, and it is all land belonging to the imperial court.

That's easy. You can buy any piece of land you like, and when you go back, I'll just let a head of the Qing Dynasty Officials Department go with you.

The county magistrate in Li County is just an official of the eighth rank, and the head of our household department is the sixth rank, so it is more convenient to work with the son... No, there is no magistrate in Li County!

By the way, I remembered that His Majesty once said that whoever can quell the bandits in Li County will be named magistrate. The imperial list is still there, and it has been released for many years. Do you want to get a copy? "

"Then I would like to thank Mr. Zeng, and let the head of the household department get a copy to go with me later. There happens to be someone beside me who has the talent of a county magistrate, capable of writing and martial arts."

Song Yuanxuan said lightly, the person he was talking about was Jia Zheng. Jia Zheng was a military adviser and a soldier before, so he had really seen blood and acted decisively.

As for his talent, Zheng Nan'er often said that Jia Zheng's existence saved at least half of her energy.

Therefore, the magistrate of Li County that Song Yuanxuan most agrees with is Jia Zheng, who is more suitable than Zhao Ziluo.

Although in terms of talent, Zhao Ziluo was superior, after all, he had won too much, but in a place like Li County, iron and blood methods must be used. In this regard, Zhao Ziluo was a little worse than Jia Zheng.

Zeng Guoming smiled and said: "Okay, then wait for the son to inform me the day before departure, and I will send the master to follow, so the speed will be faster."

Song Yuanxuan took out a bank note, handed it to him, and said with a slight smile: "Master Zeng, this is the banknote for changing the household registration, please keep it."

Zeng Guoming put it away, lowered his eyes, and took a look.

5000 taels of silver, no more, no less.

The last time he received 3 taels of silver from Song Yuanxuan, it was already a huge sum of money, so even if Song Yuanxuan didn't give it to him this time, he wouldn't have any thoughts.

But with this offer, he got closer to Song Yuanxuan, and the smile on his face increased a bit: "My lord, the land in Li County is very cheap, and a hundred mu of land in that kind of bitter cold land is only two or three taels of silver. "

"Master Zeng, can you give me a map of Li County?" Song Yuanxuan smiled and then changed the topic: "If I bought all the land in Li County, how much money would it cost?"

Zeng Guoming was startled, turned over the map and glanced at it and said: "There are only 1 people in Li County, and each person has one mu of private land, which is almost [-] mu.

But Li County is too large, and the effective arable land, including forest land, is almost [-] mu. This does not include the Taiming Mountain, which has at least [-] mu.

If the young master really wants to buy it, then 1000 acres, count as [-] taels of silver. If that's the case, I'll just issue a land deed and a map. "

"If you add that mountain, that sea, and that river and lake?" Song Yuanxuan responded.

Zeng Guoming glanced down, then thought for a while and said, "I think 1000 taels is good? These are all non-agricultural lands, and they are not worth much, but the advantage lies in the large size. With the cultivated land, it is counted as 2000 taels in total."

Song Yuanxuan smiled and said: "Thank you Master Zeng, then I hope you can complete this land deed as soon as possible."

Zeng Guoming nodded and said: "No problem, let someone do it in these two days, then the main task will not be over, I will also draw out the detailed map.

From now on, these lands will all belong to Mr. Song, and you can do whatever you want. If someone dares to occupy your land, you can deal with it as a bandit. "

"With Lord Zeng's words, I feel relieved!"

Song Yuanxuan arched his hands, took out another 5000 taels of silver, handed it to him, and said: "Master Zeng, you have been working hard for the adults in your household department these two days, so let the adults buy some things to make up for this little silver." Body."

Zeng Guoming, as a member of the household department, Wailang, is a fifth-rank official and can go to the court. In the future, someone will be able to notify him in time of anything in Li County.

After all, Zeng Guoming sold the land to him. If something happened to Song Yuanxuan, Zeng Guoming would also be responsible, so he would do everything possible to protect him.

What's more, although Li County is not considered remote, it is really too poor. It doesn't even have a county magistrate. At present, a master Bo is taking care of it.

There are not many guards in the county, there are only about twenty people in total, so the bandits can be unscrupulous.

Even if Song Yuanxuan broke into something over there, basically no one knew what happened.

Zeng Guoming took the bank note and smiled even brighter.
