The emperor checked and found out that, good fellow, this Li Mu, Li Muzhi was actually the "Farming Talent of the Wei Dynasty" that he had specially rewarded when he first came to the throne.

He also made the beautiful and powerful Xiuchun Dao.

Even Li Mu's copy of "Joining the Army" was found.

But Emperor Wei said nothing. He just promoted Zhang Fugui and other martial arts disciples and told them not to spread the contents of the book, and then confiscated the book and let the military brass study it day and night.

He also secretly paid attention to the martial arts disciples who had not yet joined the army and warned them not to spread the military manual to others, for fear that they would tell others about it after reading the military manual.

As a result, those who read the military book basically joined the army one after another, while those who did not join the army only glanced at it once or twice and only remembered their names.

Finally, the top brass of the Wei army finally formulated a plan by studying military books to annihilate the Song Dynasty's 80,000 troops in one fell swoop more than half a year ago, and took advantage of the situation to take over the three counties.

If it weren't for Dayan, Wu and other countries gearing up at the border. Those high-ranking officers of the Wei army who had been baptized by the "Wu Jing" wished they could transform into famous generals and bulldoze the enemies on the front line.

The war finally ended. In order to thank Li Mu for his contribution to writing books, Emperor Wei directly made Li Mu a baron of Qingping County and gave Xiaohe Village a fiefdom of Li Mu, which was hereditary.

It also included the surrounding mountains and rivers, and granted Li Mu the title of Jinshi in Civil and Military Affairs, so that he could enter the court and serve as an official at any time.

By the way, he also rewarded the county magistrate, the little old man who uploaded the news in time, with the position of Chengyang County Sheriff. Yes, he was the Chengyang County Sheriff again.

Mr. Zhao, the previous governor of Chengyang County, now has the emperor's heart in the court.

No wonder the little old man's hat was tilted in excitement when he came to see Li Mu today.

"Well, let's just wait a few years."

Li Mu shook his head, and then planned to talk about meeting Emperor Wei in a few years.

Seeing the emperor and others probably jumped three feet high with joy after hearing this, but Li Mu was afraid that there would be a mixed bag of fish and dragons in the capital, and he couldn't control it.

After all, Li Mu is an immortal now, and in Li Mu's eyes, no one's life is as valuable as his own.

"Squeak~"

Li Mu opened the door and saw a beaming Li Youliang bragging to the village chief and other villagers who came over.

"Young man salutes the Baron."

When the village chief saw Li Mu coming out, he quickly led the villagers in the yard to salute Li Mu.

You must know that now they have all been rewarded to Li Mu by Emperor Wei along with the land. The power of life and death rests entirely in the hands of Li Mu.

"Oh, uncle village chief, you have broken me."

Li Mu said awkwardly when he saw the gray-haired village chief.

"The gift cannot be neglected."

The village chief still goes his own way.

"Okay, but it will be the same in the future."

Li Mu had no other thoughts.

"But in the future, my Li family will also reclaim some wasteland. Those who have no land to farm will come to my house. Naturally, there will be no shortage of food from you."

"Thank you, Lord Baron."

……

The next day, the county magistrate brought workers to Xiaohe Village and built a baronial mansion for Li Mu in accordance with regulations. It covers an area of ​​ten acres and can be used for office and self-residence. It is all made of blue bricks.

Even the ground is made of blue bricks, and a stone archway was built at the entrance of the village with the inscription "Barony of Qingping" written on it.

At the same time, at Li Youliang's request, the Li family built another ancestral hall covering an area of ​​two acres, with two memorial tablets inside, Grandpa Li Mutai and Grandma Li Mutai.

But there are still two imperial edicts enshrined. So Li Erzhuang also sent four disciples to take turns guarding him.

Li Mu did not take back the fields of other people in Lijia Village, as long as they paid taxes on time. Li Mu also built a large granary and a school opposite the martial arts hall.

After Li Mu's reforms, Xiaohe Village became so prosperous in just one year that almost no one was seen wearing patched clothes.

Now when Li Youliang goes out, everyone calls him: Mr. Li.

Li Tieniu was also married and had a child, so no one particularly urged Li Mu to get married.

In the past, land reclamation required purchasing wasteland from the government, but now a large area of ​​wasteland in Xiaohe Village belongs to Li Mu.

So Li Mu reclaimed 200 acres, and adding the previous 100 acres made up 300 acres of land to grow medicinal herbs.

And several medicinal fields totaling three acres have been opened on the mountain to cultivate and grow five-year-old herbs and ten-year-old herbs.

Having met many people, Li Mu also knew that five-year-old herbs and ten-year-old herbs could only be cultivated in the mountains, and he had gone the wrong way before.

Now, if anyone looks at Xiaohe Village from a high altitude, they will find that the village covers an area of ​​about five square kilometers. In addition to the mountains and streams in the east, there are hills in the south. To the north and west are open plains.

The buildings in the village are now basically concentrated in three areas. One is the Li family residence and the martial arts school granary, and there is also a small commercial street such as Li Mu's blacksmith shop, medical center, grocery store, etc. Although no one patronizes it, the sparrow is small. All organs are present.

Second, the original concentrated residential area in the village was more than 200 meters away from the Li family.

The third is the family of long-term workers who depend on the Li family. Most of them are now in the fields more than 100 meters behind the Li family’s backyard.

There are still more than 300 people in Xiaohe Village now, but the martial arts gym personnel are not counted.

Counting the martial arts gym personnel, there are already more than 400 people.

"Young Liu He, I have met Lord Baron."

One sunny morning, Liu He and all the prominent people in the county came to visit Li's house, including the newly appointed county magistrate, a young man with an excited look on his face.

The county magistrate still remembered what his father, who was already a fifth-rank official before he took office, said to him.

"Wen Bao, do you know how many people are eyeing the position of Qingping County Magistrate? I spent a lot of effort to get it."

"Now this position is called "Zao Sheng County Magistrate" by everyone in the court."

"Hahaha, Brother Liu, we brothers don't have to be like this. You all come with me into the house."

Li Mu was also happy to see Liu He and greeted him into the house.

Although Li Mu is only a baron, not everyone can get a baron in the Wei Dynasty, and it is still hereditary.

That must be done through military service.

Otherwise, at most, they will be given an honorary title and a salary when they are alive, but nothing when they die.

Therefore, the county magistrate did not dare to speak loudly when he saw Li Mu.

……

A few years have passed, and many little carrot heads have appeared in the Li family one after another. Li Tiechui and Li Tiehua have all gotten married.

Li Tiehua recruited a son-in-law who was a disciple of the martial arts school. He has two sons in his family, he is the second eldest, and his family's 100 acres of fertile land has little to do with him.

So he simply became a door-to-door son-in-law.

Li Mu has also broken through to the middle stage of the second-rate warrior. Now after running the "Marrow Cleansing and Blood Exchange Technique", Li Mu looks like he is in his thirties, and his qualifications have also improved a bit.

Li Mu came to Li Youliang's room and felt heartbroken when he looked at Li Youliang who was bedridden in the room.

Li Youliang is almost seventy this year. Although Li Mu prescribed a lot of tonics, Li Youliang still couldn't hold on.

"Tiedan, my life has been worth it. Don't be sad, I'm very happy. When I go down, I can play with my dad for three days and three nights..."

"Tiedan, you are the pride of my Li family. I have nothing to worry about. I am just worried that you will not have a companion and no one will take care of you when you grow old..."

"Tiedan, Erzhuang, big..."

……

Li Youliang left, walking in the blooming season of spring. Li Mu shed a lot of tears that day. But it still couldn't stop Li Youliang from leaving.

"Tiedan, go back, your grandma is talking about you again."

Li Mu, who was watching Li Youliang at the cemetery, was called back by Li Dazhuang.
