Liaodong County Magistrate's Office

Lu Desheng was writing a memorial, which was a request for the relocation of the county magistrate's office to Houcheng. After it was written, it was delivered to the emperor of Chang'an.

He wrote very quickly, and the whole article was full of scattered words, which was the necessity of moving to the residence.

When he finishes writing, he will write.

Guo Dongsheng, who was standing beside him, said worriedly, "Sir, is there something wrong with changing the plaque? It's not that you can't change it, but you should write a memorial to the emperor first."

The Liaodong County County Magistrate's Office was the first county magistrate who had chosen the place and asked the court to inform the court. The court agreed to it later. Later, it was relocated for other reasons, but before the relocation, it must report to the court and ask for instructions.

"You're right. Am I asking for instructions?" Lu Desheng said lazily.

Guo Chunsheng: Sir, are you sure you are asking for instructions, rather than taking action first and then reporting?

"Sir, I mean you will change the plaque so quickly. What if you don't agree one day?"

Lu Desheng sneered in his heart, "He will agree." How could he disagree?

At the beginning, when the new emperor agreed to his release and placed him in Houcheng, Lu Desheng suspected that the new emperor wanted him to die in Houcheng.

You know, the border between Houcheng and the Xianbei grassland is always the front line of war every year, so how dangerous it is.

It is true that he wanted to release Pingzhou. It would be the best if he could be in Liaodong County. However, the new emperor arranged for him to be in Houcheng for the eighteen counties of Liaodong County, which forced him to doubt the new emperor's intentions.

Lu Desheng once felt that he was thinking too badly. After coming to Houcheng to meet with his daughter, he couldn't help but express his suspicion.

Then my daughter told him with certainty that his suspicion was correct, and that the new emperor was indeed intent on releasing him to Houcheng.

He was so angry at that time. What kind of thing is Song Mo? Compared with the late emperor, it is more than a little bit worse!

Guo Chunyu was puzzled, why did Lord Lu dare to be so sure that the emperor would agree to him to move the Liaodong County Magistrate's Mansion to Houcheng?

Lu Desheng snorted lightly, could he tell him that the emperor wanted him to die in Houcheng?

In addition, "I decided to put the county magistrate's office in Houcheng to calm the people's hearts. Why did the emperor disagree?"

Song Mo had better agree.

If you don’t agree, don’t blame him for trashing the blame!

Guo Chunyu shook her head, "Sir, you are too willful."

Lu Desheng said this to him, "The left ear goes in and out of the right ear, and he is not willful and acts recklessly, is it still him Lu Desheng? If he thought about everything carefully, the emperor would probably not be able to sleep."

Guo Chunyu was even more worried. Lord took action first and then reported. Even though the original intention was good, the emperor was only fifteen. He was a little willful, so he didn't agree regardless of whether you were trying to calm the people's hearts. Didn't Lord Lü be slapped in the face? How should he explain to the people?

If that is the case, the person who wants to explain to the people is not him, but the emperor! Lu Desheng said in his heart.

He wrote the memorials and used the post station directly to deliver them to the Emperor of Chang'an as fast as possible.

For the people of Houcheng, a personal matter happened the next day after the Houcheng County Government changed the plaque. This was when the county magistrate took office, he issued the first government order to collect labor service and repair roads.

Lu Songli recently looked at Dali's Rule and realized that Dali stipulated that men had 160% of their ranks, until they became 60 years old. The middle age was obliged to perform labor service, with an age span of 44 years.

Every man who is a senior has to serve labor service for one month every year.

She knew that compared with later generations, various taxes and corvee labor in ancient times were very heavy. In many dynasties, land taxes were around ten taxes. Ten fifteen taxes, twenty taxes, and thirty taxes were not common. Only in the prosperous dynasties, that is, in the prosperous times, dared to set such a low position.

Lu Songli remembers that she had read the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, where the taxes in Shu Han were really heavy.

At that time, the policy implemented by Shu Han was "three-dens were drawn, four-six taxes". Three-dens was drawn, and one-six taxes mean that if there was a male child in the family, one would have to go to join the army. Four-six taxes mean that 40% of the farmers' harvests were to be handed over to the country.

You can imagine how hard the people at that time lived, but there was no way. It would be better if the people in troubled times could protect their lives and the happiness index was not required at all.

Lu Songli was preparing to build a road, starting from Chen Village, bordering Wuwu County and Liaoxi County, connecting to Liaoyang, Wangping, and finally ending with Houcheng.

Based on the official roads of the four counties, widen, connect and level them.

In fact, at this time, it would be great if there was cement or asphalt.

But she thought about it, asphalt was extracted and decomposed from oil. Even if there was no such condition, cement could still be considered.

She knew the general composition of cement. Living in an era of rapid development of infrastructure, their generation often came into contact with cement in daily life.

I know the general ingredients, but I don’t know the specific ratio.

But there is no hurry to do this, and she will wait until her younger brother Lu Mingzhi makes the paper.

Moreover, at this time, they are still too weak and it is not the time to take out the cement.

Lu Songli felt that this was the time when the people of Houcheng had the most favorable impression of her father, and the corvee service this year had not been accepted, so the road construction should go smoothly, and the people should not have much resistance.

Lu Songli guessed correctly, and their labor service was very smooth.

After Geng Yuan returned home, he thought about it and always felt that he could not just let it go. So he personally visited several landlords and powerful people in the same circle.

After a while of discussion, they unanimously decided to send someone to investigate Lu Desheng's words and asked him if the construction of Liaodong County or Houcheng still needs money.

Lu Desheng refused Geng Yuan and other wealthy landlords in Houcheng who took the initiative to borrow money.

Before, Lu Desheng must have refused without saying a word.

You looked down on me before, but now I want you to be unable to reach the top.

But my daughter said that if you want to do big things, you will not be morally clean. Nowadays, there are still many places to spend money in Houcheng and even the entire Liaodong County. People trust them and are willing to lend them money to develop. Why refuse?

Of course, the treatment of Geng Yuan’s group of people is higher than that of Lan Bingrong, who was the first to donate generously, and under the same conditions, it is the next level.

Lan Bingrong took the risk of using real money to play with them. If he made the right choice, he should be rewarded.

When Geng Yuan and others came to the door with the silver, Lord Lu's disgrace and smiling face greeted him, letting them down.

These people are quite generous in borrowing money this time, ranging from 20,000 to 10,000.

Boxes of silver were carried into the government office one after another, and finally everyone took away a loan note covered with the Liaodong County Magistrate.

This time, Lan Bingrong did not come, Lu Desheng took the initiative to make up for him a loan note covered with the Liaodong County Magistrate's pole, and then arranged someone to send it to him home.
