Be a small county magistrate in ancient times

Chapter 224 Not yet mature
As Captain Yang said, fortunately there is nothing, so how to build it depends on their wishes. Even the huts can be built so novel.

"Master Qi, Master Meng asked me to take you to take a look around the area. Now it's windy. Why don't we leave the Yamen and talk while walking?"

"it is good!"

The two of them talked and walked outside the county government office.

"According to what you just said, when people move here from other places, the county government will give them land according to their heads. I don't think many people can refuse such a good thing? Why does Captain Yang find it difficult?"

Yang Zheng sighed, "How many things in the world are only beneficial? Although our county government is divided into fields and houses, Beishan County is located here after all, and it is separated from the Yan army by a wall.

Land or life? It is obvious how the people will choose. "

"Captain Yang, you also said that there is a wall separating the city. There are soldiers from Daliang guarding the city wall. Even if the Yan army attacks, they may not be able to break through the city wall. If we step back ten thousand steps, the city will be broken, and there will be soldiers to defend it. , the people also have time to retreat, what should they be afraid of? "

Yang Zheng looked at the person in front of him, his expression a bit difficult to explain, "Master Qi has never been to the border, has he?"

Qi Renli nodded.

"I think so." Yang Zheng asked: "You have never seen with your own eyes the horror of the battle between the two armies. But anyone who has seen it will never forget it.

Liangzhou was a lost territory that had been recovered, and many people had not forgotten the brutality and terror of the Yan army.

Those people would never want to come to Beishan County. "

"Indeed." Qi Renli slowed down his walking speed and told Yang Zheng, "It's Qi's fault."

"No, no, no, Master Qi's words are serious."

Qi Renli continued: "I think the problem you are worried about is indeed difficult to solve, but there are many people in the world who dare to take risks.

If we not only provide benefits, but also truthfully tell the people that Beishan County needs them and the Daliang border needs them, maybe some people will be willing to come. "

This time it was Yang Zheng's turn to nod, but nodding did not mean that he agreed with the other party's point of view.

Yang Zheng understood that although the man in front of him was older than Mr. Meng, his ideas were not as mature as Mr. Meng.

"Please." Yang Zheng led him through the large open space next to the county government office.

What appeared in front of Qi Renli were neatly arranged earthen houses.

In fact, every house is different. What makes him feel neat is the courtyard wall outside each house.

The courtyard walls are of the same height, the enclosed area is the same size, and even the courtyard doors are opened at the same position. "Master Qi, this area is the county designated by Master Meng. Currently, there are more than 200 people living there. Before the Beishan County wall was built, they lived here to survive.

Times were difficult at that time. Without Mr. Meng, few of these people would have survived. "

Qi Renli looked up and looked around. He saw smoke coming out of many chimneys. "Are the people not going out?"

"It's nothing special. People generally don't go out. There's a hot kang burning at home, so why go out and suffer."

After walking around this area, Qi Renli saw a strange black land.

Many people were busy on the ground, digging soil and piling bricks.

Qi Renli suppressed his curiosity and before he asked, he heard Yang Zheng saying: "That is the residence we are building for you. The soil is frozen solid now, and it is not easy to excavate, so the workers are working on it first." Burnt the charcoal.”

"Old Baldhead!" Yang Zheng shouted over there.

Soon an old man came over with an ink fountain, "Master Registrar, the wood is ready..."

Before Old Baitou finished speaking, he was stopped by Yang Zheng, "This is the county magistrate. The house you built is exactly for him."

Old Baitou hurried forward to meet Qi Renli, and took out the drawings for Qi Renli to take a look at, "Your Excellency, do you think there is anything that needs to be changed?"

Qi Renli only took a cursory look and returned it to Old Baitou. It wasn't that he didn't care or that he couldn't understand, but that his exposed hands were too cold to bear.

"We'll talk about this later. When you have time, go to the county government office to find me." As he spoke, he hurriedly hid his hands in his sleeves.

Seeing this, Yang Zheng took off his gloves and wanted to put them on Qi Renli.

Qi Renli refused politely and resolutely, so Yang Zheng had no choice but to withdraw his kindness, "This is not the place to talk. Old Baitou, you go and do your work. Mr. Qi, do we want to go further?"

"Let's go forward." After a moment, Qi Renli said to Yang Zheng again: "It will delay your time and cause you trouble."

"Master Qi, you're welcome."

After seeing the current county seat, Yang Zheng took him to see Luojia Village. After coming out of Luojia Village, Qi Ren faced south and noticed the mountains in the distance.

"Captain Yang, there is something special about that mountain. I remember passing by it yesterday, and it seemed to be guarded by soldiers."

"There are bandits on that mountain."
