Back to the Song Dynasty as a tyrant

After speaking, he stood up and was about to leave with the people.

Zheng Xi said: "Stop joking, if you are willing to help us get the food back, why didn't you do it just now, but talked and laughed with Wang Mazi! You are the same as Wang Mazi!"

"You officials, none of them are good! All of you are the same!"

Zhao Ning ignored him, and just said, "Not only will I get back the food that you have to go up today, but I will get back all the food that you have handed over in the past two years!"

"I advise you not to meddle in your own business!" Zheng Xi shouted loudly, "These are what the government wants, even if you have money, you can't fight against the government!"

"The imperial court is undergoing restructuring, and I believe there will be good officials who are willing to petition for the people!" He turned to look at Zheng Ling: "You will pay for your life! Whoever kills your father, I will make him pay for his life!"

After speaking, he took the people and left the village.

No one took Zhao Ning's words seriously.

How could a foreigner really help them?

Zhao Ning had mixed feelings in his heart.

He went all the way back to the camp, and led his people towards Julu County.

In the evening, Huoshaoyun dyed the western sky red.

Wang Rende, the magistrate of Julu County, smiled all over his face, and said, "Liu Shicao, come, I will offer you a toast."

Cao Canjun Liu Wangxun, a member of the Sindh House, raised his glass and drank it down.

"Liu Shicao, I know that you like to eat mutton, so I ordered someone to slaughter a sheep."

"Oh, no wonder it smells so good."

"Don't Liu Shicao like it?"

"Haha, I like this kind of taste." Liu Wangxun took a piece and said, "I heard that Su Zizhan liked to eat mutton, but unfortunately after he was demoted, he was a poor man and couldn't afford it, so he messed with Dongpo himself. Meat!"

"From this point of view, I am better than Su Zizhan!"

"Su Shi is just a frivolous literati, how can he compare with Liu Shicao and you."

"Hmm! Not bad! This mutton is good!" Liu Wangxun took a bite and said, "Didn't it mean that there is a shortage of sheep now? Where did you get it?"

Wang Rende showed a mysterious smile: "Liu Shicao doesn't know something. There have been a lot of sheep in the north recently."

"Oh, how come?"

The two looked at each other and both smiled.

"Do you have a way?"

"Don't hide it from Liu Shicao, there is still a way."

"Then get a few more, and I'll get them back to Zhifu Zhang."

"No problem, it's just..." Wang Rende became embarrassed.

"Don't worry, as long as you get everything ready, Prefect Zhang will write your recommendation letter for promotion."

"Thank you Liu Shicao!"

Liu Wangxun said, "How much can we charge this time?"

"This county can collect at least [-] stones!"

"Ten thousand stones?" Liu Wangxun was taken aback, "How much per household?"

"Each household has more than one stone."

"Is there so much food?"

"In the past few years of war, the fields have been abandoned, and those who stayed got more fields. As long as those people had fields, they worked hard to cultivate them, and there was plenty of food."

Liu Wangxun nodded and said, "By the way, there is something you need to deal with."

"Liu Shicao, please tell me."

"The fields in Julu County are going to be sold, and some buyers will take over the fields."

"no problem."

"Those farmers just got the fields, so they won't complain, right?"

Wang Rende said with a smile: "What complaints can they have, and what can they do if they have complaints?"

Liu Wangxun also laughed: "That's good."

At this time, Wang Mazi came back.

"Wang Zhi County."

Seeing that Liu Wangxun was there, Wang Mazi immediately bowed and said, "See Liu Shicao."

"Wang Mazi, why are you so happy?"

"More than half of Zheng Village's grain has been harvested."

"Just such a small matter, you are too busy, just leave it to the people below to handle it."

"I heard that there is a pig in Zhengcun, am I not greedy?"

"Come and sit."

Wang Mazi came over and said, "I met a man in Zheng Village today, he is from Gyeonggi."

"Oh?" Liu Wangxun immediately became vigilant when he heard the word "Jingji".

"What are you here for?"

"It's a merchant who is going to the north to do business."

"What business?"

Zhao Ning: Beheading business!

Chapter 290 Cut off his head (third)

"Business tea."

"Tea business?" Wang Rende said in surprise.

"He has [-] catties of tea."

"really!"

"That's what he said."

"Does he have tea?"

"Say yes."

Wang Rende said: "Liu Shicao, in your opinion, what is the origin of this man?"

"There are a lot of tea businesses in Gyeonggi. The imperial court has been short of military expenses in the past two years. They have exchanged a lot of money into China and France for military expenses, and have sent out a lot of tea."

Wang Rende said: "So, what this person said is true?"

Wang Mazi said: "That man is dressed in extraordinary clothes, he looks like a rich man."

Liu Wangxun said: "Then it's almost the same."

Wang Mazi was overjoyed. He said, "This person is willing to cooperate with us."

"how to cooperate?"

"He said he could consider doing business in Julu."

"Where are the others?"

At this time, a yamen officer outside said at the door: "Officer Wang, there is an official surnamed Zhao outside who wants to see you."

Wang Mazi smiled and said, "Here we come."

Liu Wangxun frowned: "Wait! His surname is Zhao?"

"Correct."

"How is it, Liu Shicao?"

"It's okay, let him come in first."

Zhao Ning led a few people into the county magistrate's office, while the rest were waiting outside.

More people wandered around the city of Julu County, which could be regarded as patrolling.

"Prince Wang." Zhao Ning had a smile on his face as soon as he entered.

Wang Mazi stood up and said with a smile, "Officer Zhao, this way please."

"Introduce to Officer Zhao, this is Wangzhi County, the magistrate of this county."

Zhao Ning said, "I've seen Wangzhi County."

"This is Cao Canjun Liu Shicao, a scholar from the Xinde Prefecture."

"I met Liu Shicao."

"Please, Officer Zhao."

Seeing that Zhao Ning's clothes were very valuable, Liu Wangxun immediately knew that this official Zhao must be a rich man, and he came from Gyeonggi.

"I heard that Officer Zhao has tea?"

"Do a little business."

"Officer Zhao has a tea guide?"

"Of course there are, and they are given by the Du Chachang."

Knowing that the tea market in the capital issued tea quotations, it seems that this officer Zhao is indeed a tea merchant.

"I heard that Officer Zhao wants to do business in Julu?"

"There is an intention in this regard."

Liu Wangxun smiled and said, "That's good, it happens that our county magistrate also loves drinking tea."

Wang Rende asked: "Official Zhao suddenly wants to cooperate with us, what is the purpose?"

"That's it. I want to sell some tea leaves to earn money for selling the land. Everyone knows that the northern line of the imperial court is in urgent need of military rations. I know a few people in Gyeonggi who can sell military rations. However, the new agricultural policy on Gyeonggi Road is strictly checked. , You can’t just buy land from the private sector.”

Zhao Ning said sternly: "So, I went north to look for some business opportunities. I originally planned to go to Zhaozhou. I was lucky. I met Wang Guanren, and Wang Guanren recommended me to come here."

His remarks can be said to be watertight.

Several people basically all have last names.

Liu Wangxun suddenly asked: "Officer Zhao's surname is Zhao, does it have anything to do with the royal family?"

"There are many people with the surname Zhao in the world, but the surname Zhao may not necessarily be the royal family."

Liu Wangxun stroked his beard and said with a smile, "That's true."

He continued to ask: "Officer Zhao, how is the new agricultural policy on Gyeonggi Road now?"

"The investigation is very strict." Zhao Ning said solemnly, "Otherwise, I wouldn't come to Hebei to look for opportunities."

"You came just in time."

"What did Liu Shicao say?"

"Sinde Mansion recently has a large amount of farmland for sale, as long as you are willing to bid, you can buy it."

Zhao Ning was overjoyed: "It's so good!"

"How much is Officer Zhao willing to pay for the land?"

"Consistent per acre."

The three of them were slightly taken aback, and then suddenly laughed.

"Officer Zhao is really good at joking."

"how?"

"One mu and three strings, one point cannot be less."

Zhao Ning became embarrassed: "It's so expensive?"

"Officer Zhao, the fields in Hebei are very fertile, and the court will fight wars in the next ten years, so there are still many places that need food!"
