Royal Gold Medal County Magistrate

#1 - Chapter 1 The Emperor Arrives in Taoyuan County

Taoyuan County, Snow Moon Tower.

Fang Zheng squinted, surrounded by beautiful maids, the air filled with their delicate voices.

“Master Fang, are you comfortable?” The maid massaging his shoulders whispered in his ear.

A subtle curve traced the corner of Fang Zheng's lips; such days were truly delightful.

“Not bad, reward!”

“This servant thanks you, Master!”

The beautiful maid behind him was overjoyed and slightly increased the pressure of her hands.

Fang Zheng opened his eyes, dissatisfied, and said, “Don't call me Master, call me Young Master!”

The beautiful maid giggled. “Yes, Young Master!”

Fang Zheng closed his eyes again, a sense of感慨 unavoidable in his heart.

Taoyuan County finally had its first brothel, thanks to his continuous efforts...

He panicked when he first transmigrated.

Others transmigrated as princes or young masters, but he became a poor county magistrate! And the kind that no one cared about.

After wandering around for half a month, he finally gained some understanding of this world.

This dynasty was different from any Chinese dynasty in his memory, yet the civilization was quite similar.

At the time of his transmigration, the Qian and Jing kingdoms were at war.

Taoyuan County, with its poor mountains and badlands, had avoided the war.

However, Fang Zheng, who had just taken over this mess, was dumbfounded. There were only two thousand people under his rule, all with sallow faces and emaciated bodies, barely able to feed themselves.

Exaggeratedly, the county magistrate and the registrar had starved to death! The instructor also fled with the famine victims.

The most crucial point was that there was no core industry, completely losing the ability to generate income.

The dire situation was evident.

Fang Zheng, bearing the people's resentment, scraped together some grain with all his might and produced a dozen jars of high-concentration liquor.

Then, he ordered the people to kidnap a group of merchants from other places, force-fed them a lot of liquor, and finally broke the deadlock!

Five years later, the Qian Kingdom was destroyed, and Emperor Li Che of the Jing Kingdom won a great victory with thunderous means, and the world was initially settled!

Fang Zheng's life was also thriving.

Various industries in the county gradually revitalized.

In seven years, the county town expanded again and again!

The yamen was rebuilt, and casinos, brothels, and restaurants were all available!

Moreover, by going out to deceive and plunder refugees, the population had increased to tens of thousands.

Through continuous lawlessness, a small county that no one cared about, Taoyuan County, can now be said to be half a paradise on earth.

Fang Zheng's life was extremely happy.

Now, he no longer hoped that the imperial court would send someone to discover and promote him as he did at the beginning.

Instead, he strictly required the cooperating merchants to keep it a secret!

Of course, a year ago, a court inspector still came to Taoyuan County as usual.

Upon arriving in Taoyuan, he immediately praised it as an auspicious place and eagerly wanted to report his merits to the higher authorities.

Fang Zheng spent a lot of effort to settle that person!

Now, he only hoped to stay here for the rest of his life and be a local emperor. Wouldn't that be wonderful?

Anyway, it would be nice to live like this in this life, with no worries about food and drink, and whatever he wanted in terms of houses and women!

Just as he was marveling at the beauty of life, someone suddenly ran in anxiously from outside Snow Moon Tower. This person was unremarkable, wearing official uniform, and a saber at his waist.

After walking quickly to Fang Zheng's side, he whispered, “Young Master! Some people said that they found foreign merchants ten miles away, and the carriages don't have our mark. Do you want to do them in again!”

Fang Zheng was furious and kicked him.

“Zhang Biao, you dog thing, we are the government, not bandits! What's the matter with kidnapping people all day long!”

“Now we have to be formalized! Do you understand formalized! What if we scare people!”

Zhang Biao didn't stand firm and fell to the ground sideways in a charming manner, aggrieved: “Isn't that how we used to do it....”

“Good! You dare to talk back! Are you tired of living?”

The beautiful maids around him burst into laughter.

Taoyuan County is still a county, no matter how big it is. After several years of getting along, the people of Taoyuan County have a deep understanding of this county magistrate.

Not to mention the great kindness to the people of Taoyuan County.

This master is soft-hearted, and Zhang Biao is considered a close person to have this treatment, and everyone is envious.

Zhang Biao got up and stood honestly beside Fang Zheng, waiting for orders.

Suddenly disturbed, Fang Zheng didn't feel like staying any longer.

If you want to ask what is the most important thing in Taoyuan County, it must be investment promotion!

Now the county's income model is single, and it is urgent to expand new businesses, so merchants must not be sloppy.

Fang Zheng got up and cupped his hands towards the shopkeeper not far away.

The shopkeeper quickly bowed in return.

“I'm leaving! Shopkeeper, today is considered a show of support for the opening of your Snow Moon Tower!”

“Do your business well, and I will guarantee you make a fortune. But let me say the ugly things first, if there is any wrongdoing or oppression of civilian girls, this official will tear down your Snow Moon Tower! Do you understand?”

The shopkeeper was sweating profusely, with a flattering smile on his face.

“Yes, yes, thank you, County Magistrate, for your care!”

“Let's go, Zhang Biao! Back to the yamen!”

.............................

“Your Majesty, we should reach Taoyuan County in half a day. The people in the palace should have entered the official road by now.”

Guo Tianyang respectfully held a map with both hands. In front of him was a middle-aged man about forty years old, who was Emperor Li Che of the Jing Dynasty!

Although he was only in his forties, his face was weathered and his expression was firm, and a trace of worry appeared in his eyes from time to time.

Although the country has been unified in the past two years, natural and man-made disasters have continued everywhere, and countless memorials have flown like snowflakes.

Emperor Jing was under great pressure for a while, and he had the idea of ​​visiting incognito, so he left a letter and came out without telling the palace.

Seeing Guo Tianyang holding the map, he nodded slightly.

He casually asked: “Guo Banban, have you ever heard of Taoyuan County?”

Guo Tianyang shook his head: “Your Majesty, this servant has never heard of it. This county is in the mountains, and the journey is so bumpy, and the roads are in disrepair for many years. I think this county should be the smallest of the small.”

Emperor Jing nodded again and began to close his eyes to rest.

Seeing this, Guo Tianyang also put away the map.

For a moment, the two of them were speechless in the carriage.

Only the wailing of the wheels echoed in the air, squeaking and irritating.

After an incense stick of time passed, Emperor Jing slowly opened his eyes and sighed.

“Let's rest in Taoyuan County for a day. The road is really too bad, it's better to ride a horse.”

Guo Tianyang chuckled twice: “Your Majesty, this place is very remote after all, and it is expected that the roads will be bad. It will be fine when we get to Hengjiang Prefecture.”

“But... This old servant is worried that Taoyuan County is a remote place, and Your Majesty didn't bring guards...”

Emperor Jing snorted coldly: “Guo Banban, your courage is getting smaller and smaller. You have fought with me for several years. Now you have to worry so much even about a private visit?”

“I think you are old....”

Guo Tianyang panicked and hurriedly explained: “Your Majesty, this old servant....”

“Bang!”

Before he could finish speaking, the carriage shook violently.

Guo Tianyang was bounced up high, and his head hit the carriage.

Fortunately, Emperor Jing was sitting firmly and grabbed the handrail tightly, so he was spared.

“Go out and see!”

Guo Tianyang covered the top of his head and crawled out of the carriage, scolding the coachman: “You dog bastard! Can't you watch the road when driving? If you startle my master, be careful I'll take your dog's head!”

The coachman trembled and pointed forward: “Old... Master, look!”
