Chapter 213 Is this official not allowed to enter?
When Zhao Jin returned to the carriage, his face was solemn and he said, "Find an inn first."
Seeing this, Xu Qi and Takeda didn't dare to ask any more questions and found an inn to stay.
When the shopkeeper saw them, he was about to burst into tears. "Which room do the three guests want to stay in? The rooms here are great! The price is affordable!"
As soon as Zhao Jin walked into the inn, he found that the entire inn was empty.
Turning his head to look at the enthusiastic shopkeeper, he saw that the hair exposed under his scarf hat was already a little gray, and his face was also covered with traces of wind and frost.
For a moment, the old man's words echoed in Zhao Jin's ears.
"The only ones left in the city now are us bad old men or old women!"
Zhao Jin took a deep breath and directly chose a seat by the window to sit down.
Xu Qi negotiated with the shopkeeper, "I want three connected, best rooms, and then I'll put up some of your signboards."
"Okay!"
The shopkeeper looked delighted, and quickly welcomed Xu Qi to sit down at Zhao Jin's seat, poured tea for them, and then said: "I'll go cook for a few of you first. If anything happens, just call me. I'll be there later."
hear!"
When Zhao Jin heard this, he glanced at the shopkeeper and said, "Okay, it's okay."
"This, this inn, there is only one innkeeper?"
At first they thought this inn just didn't have a waiter, but who knew, it didn't even have a cook!
"Sir, should we change to another inn?"
Zhao Jin lowered his head and took a sip of tea.
The tea served in this inn is indeed a clean tea.
It tastes light and clear in the mouth. If it weren't for some tea residues settling in the cup, one would even think it was pure water.
"No, it's all the same."
Considering the situation in Zhengding City, these inns and shops are not visited by anyone at all.
How can a shopkeeper afford a waiter?
"After you finish your meal later, go check out the situation inside the city."
Zhao Jin tapped the table with his fingertips, "Focus on checking the county government and why the land in Zhengding City cannot grow food."
Every word was filled with chill, revealing the rage in Zhao Jin's chest.
How bad does the environment have to be for a city to have only old people left?
The ancients wanted to relocate to their homeland, but most people would not be willing to leave their homeland unless they were forced into a desperate situation.
Stability is engraved in the bones of the ancient Han people.
"yes!"
The three of them all came from the military and ate very quickly.
Within half an hour, all three of them had finished their meal.
Zhao Jin sat down there for a while and then returned to the room.
The rooms in the inn are not upstairs, but several rooms are built at the back.
He opened the door and walked in. The room he entered was simple and simple, with only a bed, a table and a chair.
There is no more furniture.
But it's pretty neat.
Zhao Jin rubbed his eyebrows, the situation in Zhengding City was too abnormal.
According to the old man, it has been several years, so how come there is no news at all?
When he first took office, he checked all the files of Yunzhou County. Zhengding City was mentioned in them, but it was said that the place was remote and relatively poor.
Zhao Jin took a long breath and now waited for Xu Qi and others to investigate the situation when they came back.
About two hours later, Takeda and Xu Qi came back together.
"grown ups!"
Both of their faces were ashen, and Takeda was even more angry.
"Talk about it."
"It's because of the saline-alkali land." Xu Qi pursed her lips.
Zhao Jin paused slightly, "Saline-alkali land."
It is saline-alkali land. No wonder the old man said that food cannot be grown in this land.
When farming on saline-alkali soil, crops will eventually wither and die, or yield very little food.
"The fields in Zhengding City are all saline-alkali land?"
"Almost, only..."
Before Xu Qi finished speaking, Takeda, who was full of anger, took over the conversation.
"There are only about 80 acres of land that is not saline-alkali land, and all of it has been taken over by the county magistrate!"
Zhao Jin's face suddenly darkened, "All taken?"
"Then all the grain that was cultivated was occupied by the county magistrate?"
Takeda slammed the table, "Exactly!"
"This county magistrate does not care about the people's worries, but instead takes the last chance of survival for the people!"
Zhao Jin stood up, his face was terrifyingly cold, and his starry eyes were condensed with a thick layer of frost.
"absurd!"
During the days he was in office, he never received any information from Zhengding City informing him of this situation.
They neither report nor deal with the saline-alkali land, and occupy all the fields that are not saline-alkali land.
Xu Qi said solemnly: "Actually, the saline-alkali land in Zhengding City was not that serious at the beginning, but as time went by, it became more and more serious."
Xu Qi's voice paused for a moment, then said after a while: "Now, it looks like this."
"If the saline-alkali land is not treated, it will naturally spread to other places."
Zhao Jin said coldly: "Go to the county office now! I want to see who the magistrate of Zhengding City is!"
After saying this, Zhao Jin walked out quickly, his eyebrows filled with a cold look.
When the shopkeeper saw Zhao Jin's menacing look, he didn't dare to step forward and ask what happened.
He quickly grabbed Xu Qi, who seemed to be more talkative, and asked in a low voice: "Sir, what happened?"
Xu Qi glanced at Zhao Jin's back and said, "Let me vent your anger."
After the words fell, Xu Qi quickly caught up with Zhao Jin and Takeda.
"Ah?" The shopkeeper touched the scarf on his head and repeated blankly: "Take it out?"
Because there was no one on the street, the carriage of three people drove very quickly, and within a short time, they had arrived at the gate of the county government office.
Zhao Jin got down from the carriage with a cold face.
He hadn't even gotten into the carriage just now.
The county government officer suddenly saw an elegant carriage stopping at the door, and was slightly startled.
Is there any family in Zhengding City that can afford such a carriage?
By the time they came to their senses, Zhao Jin had already reached the door and was about to go in.
"Stop!" the Yamen Guard shouted to stop the three of Zhao and Jin, "Who are you?"
Zhao Jin raised his eyelids and said coldly: "Get out of here!"
"How dare you trespass in the important place of the Yamen!" a Yamen guard shouted sternly and stopped in front of Zhao Jin.
The other government guards took out the sabers from their waists and looked at Zhao Jin and the others warily, but no one dared to take action rashly.
The clothes worn by these three people are not of the highest quality, especially the young man who leads them. The dark patterns on the clothes require extremely high embroidery skills.
Zhao Jin was too lazy to pay attention to them. He raised his long legs and kicked away those who were blocking him.
One of the yamen guards cleverly went in to report, and the others started fighting with Zhao and Jin.
However, these government guards are all useless people, so how can they be Zhao Jin's opponents.
Zhao Jin only used two moves to force back all the government guards who were blocking him, and strode into the county government office.
The county magistrate who heard the news came out cursing, "Where did you come from, you dare to break into the Yamen!"
Zhao Jin raised his head when he heard the sound, his eyes were cold, "Is this the county government office in Zhengding City not allowed for me to enter?"
