As a lord, I was forced to farm

The drinking man squinted at the past, and squeaked, "Don't give my young man any idea, as stupid as he is, he is not worthy of our county lord."

Everyone was joking, but they felt that the lord's age was indeed the age, so it would be good to have an heir to the territory earlier.

However, thinking about the appearance of the county lord who is comparable to the legendary demon phoenix king, I feel a subtle discomfort in matching anyone.

"I heard that there are more than a dozen demon spirits in our territory, including potato and corn demon spirits, so I'll clear up some land next year and plant some other things!" A farmer changed the topic, thinking of the new demon spirits, he was very happy.

The more demon spirits there are, the richer their lives will be.

"Keep your eyes open, why don't you find land approved by the government to plant thousands of grasses, ice ganoderma and fire lotus seeds! I heard that the lord has released the seeds and wants to encourage farmers to plant spiritual things!" A young man with a big mouth passing by heard this , couldn't help but interrupt.

"Hey, isn't this Tian Guang who works as a clerk in Liushang Pavilion? Are you serious?"

Tian Guang was instantly chatted by the enthusiastic crowd, and at the same time was stuffed with a glass of wine.

"Of course it is true!" Tian Guang took a sip of the wine, and said at the same time, "The Liushang Pavilion is already preparing seeds, but it seems that the fields for planting spiritual things need to pay a special tax..."

*
After Jiang Ran went to Mingxiao College, she was inspired to separate the cultivation and trading of spiritual things from ordinary things.

For example, if you want to plant spiritual plants, you must report to the government in advance according to the rarity of the spiritual plants.

Such measures are mainly to facilitate the territory to collect more taxes.

However, how much tax to collect and how to collect it are still under discussion.

After the battlefield, there are a lot of affairs to be dealt with, the first of which is to reward those who have made contributions and carry out post-war reconstruction.

"All blessings, my lord!!"

Everyone looked serious on the surface, but the corners of their mouths and raised eyebrows still revealed a happy mood.

Right now, the officials from the six ministries gathered in the lobby, and even Tian Jing shed all his blood, and hurried back from the border of Xinheng to discuss the reward.

Suling's military merit system, Jiang Ran, borrowed from the Qin Dynasty's twenty-level military merit title system.

Although there have been some changes, the credits are still roughly based on kills and victories.

However, not all heads can be exchanged for military merits. They must be the heads of "soldiers" and above. A soldier is not an ordinary soldier, but a soldier in armor, usually an elite forward in the army.

This time, Suling has experienced a total of five battles, namely the Suling Defense Battle, the Suhuang Battle, the Phoenix Defense Battle, the Suzhen Battle, and the final Suheng Battle. One thousand and 24 heads of soldiers, seven heads of the enemy's chief and deputy commanders, and three heads of the lords were captured.

Soldiers below the "fourth level of non-renewal" can be promoted to the first rank by beheading one level, but the military merits of officers above the non-renewal are counted collectively, and the number of casualties of the troops must be deducted when calculating military merits.

Coupled with some flexible modifications, the calculation of military merit has become a bit complicated.

This is the first time military merit has been counted since the birth of the military merit system. Wang Zhuo and others were overwhelmed with calculations, and even made mistakes.

Wang Zhuo reported solemnly, "During the five battles, Mr. Tian was the leader, and won all five battles. He beheaded four heads of the opponent's general... 2437 points of meritorious service were recorded."

Although Tian Jing is an officer of the Suling Minister of War, Jiang Ran was awarded the title of a sixth-level official official, enjoying 7 hectares of land and 7 houses.After this war, it can be promoted to two levels in a row, that is, the eighth level of public transportation.

"Master Tian has made great achievements for his hard work. He was granted the throne as a public servant, and he was rewarded with 30 pieces of cloth and silk, as well as a prefecture-level magic weapon, the Peiyuan Sword, and a refining pill." Jiang Ran nodded at the table, signaling Li Fusheng to hand over the reward to Tian Jing.

Peiyuan Sword is an earth-level spiritual sword commonly used by Yang Hao. Although Jiang Ran rewarded Tian Jing with a spirit refining pill before, the cultivation is undoubtedly going against the sky. Spiritual.

If one is not enough, then two.

Tian Jing wholeheartedly wanted to follow the lord to expand the territory, saying that it was impossible for him not to be interested in the fields and houses. He had already burst out laughing when he got the fields and houses. After hearing that all the rewards came down, he was shocked and couldn't help himself. He could only reply instinctively, "Thank you, thank you, Lord County Lord, for the reward..."

Others are very envious, but they also know that Tian actually came here by fighting with his life.

"..."

After this reward, there were more public servants in the county, and even the hairpins were not changed. They took the signs to choose fields and houses.

On He Zi's side, Jiang Ran also kept his promise, rewarding those who made meritorious deeds, and those who were willing to stay in the army were also incorporated into the army.

"This is the list of selected officials, please take a look at it, Lord County Lord." Lin Sha presented the memorial,
Jiang Ran flipped through, and this time recruited [-] officials at once, and dispatched them to less than six departments.Among them, there were ten people from Suling Town, and the remaining five were selected from Xinheng San Town.

Xinheng's Xu Nong is also included.

Considering the issue of loyalty, let them start from the bottom.

"Also, it's the issue of this reconstruction." Seeing Jiang Ran's calm expression, Lin Sha continued to talk about another matter, "It's October, and there are two months before the cold winter. Within a month, the people in Xinheng and other three towns will be appeased."

After many years of training, especially in the past half a year, Lin Sha is better at thinking and doing things more steadily. He said, "The people in the three towns are panicked and idle, which will cause trouble in the long run. According to Master Wu's rough statistics, Xinheng Town There is a shortage of young and middle-aged people, there are many old and weak women and children, there are more men and women in Zhenyuan Town, and there are young and middle-aged people in Fenghuang Town, most of them are elderly..."

Lin Sha looked at Jiang Ran, who nodded slightly, motioning for him to continue.

"Xinheng Town has iron mines, but it suffers from the fact that no one mines them; Zhenyuan Town is full of rich men, but they spend all day idling around kilns, and the women in the town suffer from acacia weeds; Fenghuang Town is old, but there are many handicraftsmen. Man, it's a pity that Yan Xi doesn't pay attention to..."

Lin Sha and Qiu Baishui looked at each other, and continued, "I have discussed with Mr. Qiu that for Xinheng Town, Suyuan Shipyard is in urgent need of boat spinning and hemp rope. In addition, after the boat is built, fishing will definitely require a lot of money." For fishing nets and fish cages, let the women, children, and old people knead ropes to weave canvas and various fishing gear, and then buy them from the boat workshop. If you think about it, with the income, the disadvantaged people will not be so flustered."

Lin Sha was indeed very thoughtful. Not having to use his brain made Jiang Ran very happy, and he also felt that Lin Sha and the others had grown a lot, "That's right, let's do as Lin Jiaqing said."

"As for Zhenyuan Town, the subordinates think that there are two things that need to be done first!" Lin Sha's expression was a little angry upon closer inspection.

"Enlightenment! Zhenyuan Town is full of promiscuity, women are exposed in the street, men are addicted to drugs, and take good women at will. There are hundreds of brothels in the small town of Zhenyuan. My lord, I implore you to send patrols." Copied the kilns in Zhenyuan Town, strictly controlled Albizia juniper herbs, and sent people from the Ministry of Rites to educate them. In addition, taking advantage of their sense of crisis at this time, they can organize the young and middle-aged people in Zhenyuan Town to mine new Heng iron for us Mine, the reward is settled on a daily basis."

At this time, Chen Mao stepped forward and said, "I have something to report. Shipyards, large and small blacksmiths are suffering from iron poverty, and have slowed down their work. Please send someone to dig the iron ore as soon as possible, the county lord."

"Huh?" Jiang Ran raised her eyebrows. The iron ore brought from Xinheng last time was almost used up. "How is the progress at Chuanfang?"
