First Class Concubine

Chapter 172 Li Wei
"Xiao Qi is not angry, these people are not worth your trouble." As soon as Qi Jing entered the room, she was immediately embraced by Le Chen.The voice was gentle and comforting, but the gaze outside was full of murderous intent.He signaled to the hidden guard in the dark, and the daughter of the old city lord will have to live a life worse than death from now on.

"It's really not worth it, so I'm not angry." Qijing was not angry at all: "It's just that you can't do it in the future. You work hard outside. After you come back, you have to worry about these incomprehensible people. I Anyway, it’s nothing to worry about, just settle it.” Women’s war, naturally, women stepped forward.

They were plotting against her people. Could it be that she, the owner, was going to hide behind?She may not be skilled in relationships, but she knows that if you want to last long, you need two people to work hard together.It's too tiring to rely on only one person.

"Foul words and obscure words are unbearable for Xiaoqi's ears."

Qijing laughed and showed him directly: "I never punish myself for other people's mistakes." Besides, she has never heard any bad words, but at this level, it's not enough to tickle her: "Anyway, it's just an order, And by the way, stand up."

"It's good that Xiaoqi is not angry. As for Liwei, I really need it. Today is a little inappropriate. Tomorrow, call all the other people over tomorrow, and let them meet you, the mistress."

"There's no need for tomorrow, today is good. It's just a matter of using these few people to make an example... as long as you stay by my side."

"I will always be on your side, no matter what." Even if you kill people and set fires, even if you are against the world.

Qijing was satisfied: "That's it."

Lechen pulled her behind his desk, let her sit next to him, stuffed a few notebooks for her to read to pass the time, and he continued to deal with official duties.

The first book that Qijing took happened to be about land planning.

The existing private land will not be moved.But it will be registered and recorded, and the tax will be paid on a per-acre basis.The government will arrange people to continue to open up wasteland.The opened wasteland is sold to private individuals by the acre.Those who participate in the land reclamation have priority and can purchase at a preferential price.

The officially arranged pioneers are basically an army of one hundred thousand.Once they bought land here, it would be a matter of time before their family moved here.

Private individuals are not allowed to reclaim wasteland at will.If a private person wants to open up wasteland, then first obtain the consent of the local government.First delineate the place, and then go to open up wasteland.After the wasteland is opened, [-]% of it will be taken back by the government.Land reclamation can only get [-]% of it.Of course, they can give priority to buying the [-]% of the land at a price that is [-]% lower than the price.

All newly developed land is tax-free for the first year.In the second year, [-]% of the tax is charged, and in the second year, [-]% of the tax is charged.In the third year, the full tax will be collected.

Qijing thought about it, took a piece of paper and wrote it down on the side.Write the word "seed".

With such favorable conditions, there must be many people coming to open up wasteland.

In this way, the land is there, and then the next step is the problem of seeds.

After thinking about it, I added another word, or two words, farm cattle.In fact, she also thought of environmental issues.Opening up wasteland is a good thing, but turning the forest into fertile land means that the forest is decreasing.Vegetation reduction... for a short time, nothing.But after a long time, thousands of years...

Putting down the booklet, I found the most complete map here.

After watching for a while, I still put this matter aside.There is no rush on this matter.After all, there are still few people.But he pulled Le Chen over and pointed to several places on the map, "These places are not allowed to open up wasteland. Those trees are not allowed to be cut down."

Le Chen nodded directly: "Okay."

Qijing leaned over and took a sip, counting it as a reward.

Le Chen arrested him and kissed him hard.Until someone outside came to report: "Master, mistress, the kitchen has sent some new-style dim sum..."

The two separated, and Qi Jing covered her face with her hands, cooling her hot face with cold hands.Le Chen smiled complacently: "Send it in."

Qijing glared at him, but before the servants came in, he was still flawless.

It was one of the little girls picking flowers who brought the snacks over.

In such a short period of time, she has changed into another outfit, which is quite charming.When he came in, he didn't dare to raise his head, and glanced around, his little face was already flushed with embarrassment.

Qijing glanced over and felt unhappy.

Her people, no matter where they are, there are people who miss her.

Qijing is unhappy, how can he make others happy?His eyes widened, and he immediately began to torment people. "Bring it up."

As soon as her voice came out, the maid suddenly raised her head.Seeing this one before, actually sitting with His Highness, my heart skipped a beat.

Originally, when these maids met a suave, handsome and martial master, they would inevitably think a little more in their hearts.If the person who can become the master also becomes the master, then he will ascend to heaven in one step.

Therefore, these days, although there are very few opportunities to meet this master.But their sisters more or less have such thoughts.

They knew that he had a fiancée, but no one knew that his fiancée was in the backyard of the city lord's mansion.In fact, even if they knew about it, they wouldn't care. After all, it is very common for a man to have three wives and four concubines.Not to mention that this is still the prince...

Therefore, although Qijing scolded them before, it also gave them a chance at the same time.After all, they never had the opportunity to enter the meeting hall before.

In order to deliver the snacks, several of their little sisters fought over their heads, and it was her turn to get this beautiful job.As soon as she came in, she looked away from the corner of her eye to make sure that the woman was not there.She was even more happy, thinking that she must seize the opportunity and let His Highness take a fancy to her.

As a result, when she looked up, she was stunned and her face turned pale.Even more unbelievable, how could there be a man in this world who would allow a woman to be equal to him?
Then came envy and jealousy.Even the thick shade couldn't cover her, and she looked at Qijing as if she wanted to eat people.

Qijing smiled and glanced at Le Chen: "Who taught all the servants in this mansion, and they don't know the rules at all. Don't you know how to salute when you see your master?"

Le Chen snorted coldly, pressing over with a murderous look.The girl was so shocked that she hurriedly saluted, bent her knees, bowed her head and lowered her shoulders, "I have seen His Highness, I have seen..."

"Call the master." Le Chen continued to talk to Qijing without yelling: "Speaking of which, you are the master of this mansion. Later, you should make a rule for the people below to practice. You don’t feel comfortable with it, and you don’t like it when you look at it.”

Qijing is extremely lazy. She uses the servants trained in this era fairly well, so she doesn't bother to move them. .”

Le Chen can already imagine: "Well, everything is based on your wishes, and your orders take precedence over any orders."

Qijing proudly said, "That's right."

Le Chen was also satisfied: "That's it." After a pause, he said: "In the future, let the servants unify their titles. Let's all call them masters."

"Call me master, what about you?"

"I am Your Highness." In the future, he will be His Majesty.And she is the master now, and will be the master and empress in the future.

Qijing naturally heard what he had left behind, so she also nodded.What kind of hostess is also quite awkward: "That's how it is."

The two discussed for a long time, and finally their eyes fell on the maid who was still half kneeling.At this moment, her face was pale, she was covered in cold sweat, and her body was trembling even more violently.Because of patience, the lips have been bitten with blood.

It's so miserable, but it's a pity that these two people are hard-hearted, and they don't show any pity at all.

"Bring up the snacks."

"Yes, master." The maid didn't dare to show any expression other than fear and sincerity.

The entire tray was already shaking and falling apart.The plates above collided with each other even more loudly.Finally delivered the tray to the table, the little maid almost collapsed directly.

I don't dare to have that idea anymore.This master has already captured His Highness's heart in his hands.Whoever goes up will be sent to death.

Qijing took a snack, took a sip, and put it down.Then try another one.After tasting several kinds of pastries, he frowned: "The craftsmanship is a bit poor."

Le Chen immediately coaxed: "Turn back and ask someone to find a few cooks from Beijing to send them over."

Qijing nodded and shook her head: "That's it." She is not picky about food, it's just that these little girls talked about snacks before.The resulting effect is really unsatisfactory. "I'll give you another chance. If you send it up again, it will still be at this level. Don't blame the master for not giving you a chance."

"Yes, yes. Thank you master, I will let them do it now."

The little maid hurriedly removed the things again, and fell down as soon as she stepped out of the gate.The seven or eight steps rolled down directly.

Qijing frowned lightly, and gave Le Chen another look: "At least I will stay here for a while, these people will not be taught well."

"I'll arrange someone to teach them the rules." Le Chen hugged him on his lap: "Why are you unhappy today?"

Ever since she came to the front yard and met those women, she has been in a bad mood.

"It's not you, there are so many women, all of them are like bees seeing flowers, buzzing annoyingly."

Le Chen smiled: "Are you jealous?"

"I'm not jealous, I'm just annoying..." She paused suddenly, staring at his face and looking at him strangely: "Forget it, I won't put on a mask for you."

Le Chen smiled and pecked at her face. "As long as Xiao Qi stays by my side all the time, in this life, I will never look at others again."

"I'm not by your side, are you going to look at someone else?"

"Why are you not by my side? Where are you going?" Le Chen stared, showing anxiety.

"I'm not going anywhere, I'm just making an analogy." She patted the big hand around her waist, and her waist was about to be broken.

"For example, you are not allowed to fight."

Obviously she said it first, but the panic in his eyes made her unable to bear to continue: "Okay, let's not make such an analogy. I'm not going anywhere, and I'll stay by your side."

Le Chen seemed relieved, but in the following time, the hand around her waist never let go.

Qijing completely lost her personal freedom.

Speechless rolled his eyes and could only follow him.This man is really insecure!

In the evening, the little maids brought snacks again.

The taste has improved a lot compared to last time.But whether it's Lechen or Qijing, when it's time to be picky, they are still extremely picky.

Several little maids cried and begged, and finally Qijing fined each of them two months' salary and fined each of them to make thirty pairs of shoes.

It's not that he's soft-hearted, it's just that it's not a serious crime.It's not like that, swearing at her.

And let them spread the word about her existence.In case the people in this mansion don't know who she is.She has no interest in being recognized by others when she comes to her door.
