1.3 Tribute Complementation

"This, this, what does this mean?" Zuo Feng asked in a trembling voice.

Geng Yong smiled and held a tribute: "My Lord said that when the General of the Central People came to announce the re-election, he said that the 283-year priest would be replenished. At that time, according to the fiefdom, each thousand people would have to pay tribute four taels of priest. As the official saw, although Lou Sang was narrow, there were many people. I was the main building to build canals and open fields and widely accept refugees. At that time, there were more than 20,000 people in the town. According to the 'Prior of the Lieutenant', a population of 20,000 people would have to pay 80 taels of priests every year. Now there is still 21,508 taels, and the 1,345 horse hoof golden cakes."

"Gudong!" Zuo Feng swallowed a big saliva, his eyes full of blood: "Why is it the young master..."

"Yes." Geng Yong nodded happily: "My lord said, please wait for the internal officials to stay. After the oxidation is replenished, they will be brought back together."

"Hu——" Zuo Feng let out a long sigh, and burst into tears without realizing it: "I heard that the young master and lord are negligent and righteous, and that the Han family has descended from the heavens. Many old things, I am finally convinced today."

Geng Yong bowed again and said, "My Lord also said that when we went south to quell the rebellion, there were local tyrants with tens of thousands of children from their families, and only ten people were reported; a thousand fertile land was pouring, but he pretended to be a hundred acres of thin land. He was so greedy and taxed! If the world concealed the reporting and donation, his Majesty would be so poor that his Majesty would be able to eat from the people. Even if our Lord broke the pot and sold the iron, he would still give him a good meal and sleep."

What else can Zuo Feng do? He bowed eastward. It was the direction of the Marquis' Mansion.

Three days later, Geng Yong will come again.

He said that he only raised 500 horse hoof gold and found another way to leave the gold.

Five hundred gold coins are already a huge sum of money! It is far beyond Zuo Feng's expectations. What's more, 1,345 horse-hoof golden cakes, with the character of the young master, you must be trusted. Zuo Feng rushed back and asked for credit, how could he wait for it? Then he said, "It's okay. The remaining gold coins are left, and I will come again when the young master is gathered together. Well... Let's ask, does the young master have something to bring to Your Majesty?"

This is what I'm waiting for.

Geng Yong bowed and bowed: "My lord said that the fief... is wet and requires manual care. And everything needs to be reported to the county, which is quite inconvenient. 'I dare to ask Your Majesty if you can give me 'arbitrary power' and let me do things at a disadvantage'."

It’s not just wet. It’s clearly a piece of white marsh, without any inch of land!

The actions of the royal court made loyal ministers and righteous men feel so disappointed!

Zuo Feng wished he could find a crack in the ground to get into it.

After all, when he was young and righteous, he patted his chest and said, "I will report back to the young lord and lord, and I will say that I have received great kindness and cannot repay you. If the matter is not done, come and see you!"

"Thank you, the inner lord!" Geng Yong knelt down and gave a great gift. When he was helped up by Zuo Feng, he took out a box from his sleeve and whispered: "This is what the young lord and lord have obtained to quell the rebellion, and the power is a gift."

Zuo Feng pretended to refuse and accepted it.

When Geng Yong said goodbye, he opened it sideways and saw five bright Hepu walking beads almost blinding his eyes.

Hepu Zhu is still worthy of its name!

When he came, he rode several bicycles and walked for a long time. The young master ordered Cui Ba and Xu Rong to escort the 50 dragon cavalry all the way back to Luoyang.

Zuo Feng was moved by Liu Bei's kindness, bowed to the ground and bowed to his tears and returned home.

A few days after leaving, heavy snow fell.

Liu Bei was granted the title of Linxiang Marquis, and the town had already spread all over the town. The merchants were sighing with regret. The students in the town were indignant. However, there were many people in the town. Without it, they trusted Liu Bei. In the past, Lou Sang was just a small village that no one cared about. In just a few years, it had already flourished and prosperous. The wealth was enviable to others.

Born to Liu Sandun.

With the ability of the young king and the lord, what are you afraid of if you are suffering from the Baize River?

Historical books say this place is: Dukang is rich and has a fertile road for more than fifty miles. There are ponds and marshes and branches and canals in the middle.

The hills in the middle have been found by everyone. It is like an isolated island. The four branches of the branches are destroyed by the flood. There is no trace to be found.

Liu Bei's method is very simple. First, scoop water in the middle hills. After the hills are dried, build a house and camp, and then another boat goes to Lou Sang to pick up the craftsmen. This way, a long water barrier is built around the circle, like a crisscrossing road. Just scrape out the water accumulation in the field, which can change the harm and benefit.

The weather is getting colder. The white marsh is gradually frozen and boats are unable to pass.

Wait until the car is frozen, the carriage and horse can be feasible.

The sled car is not complicated either. Liu Bei painted it well and was easily created by Su Bo.

Du Kang Gully is the artificially dug southward Juma River channel. It is the first flood. Just build a long dike along this ditch, so as not to flood the river, but lead to the downstream along the channel. The flood will be relieved.

This ditch was built by the Yan people during the Warring States Period. It was more than 50 miles long and has a history of thousands of years. During the Han Dynasty, floods frequently occurred, crushing the embankments and flooding fertile fields, and all the people fled. The canal water flooded and stretched across Zhuo County and square cities. The water accumulated into a hundred miles of large marinas and turned into wild land. It also became several surrounding counties and natural boundaries. Therefore, there was no fixed boundary for the surrounding counties.

Shortly after Zuo Feng left, Liu Bei received another letter from Cui Tingwei.

Only then did you know the details.

It turned out that His Majesty the Emperor wanted to confer Fangcheng County to Liu Bei. His military achievements were enough, and he only needed another 100 million yuan of donations, so he appointed him as the Marquis of Fangcheng County. As a result, the three dukes and four governments all jumped out to oppose it.

Not for military merit, just for donating expenses.

Isn’t this just a disguised sale of official positions and titles?

This trend must not be long. Wherever Liu Bei conferred, it becomes unimportant. The focus of the fight between the three dukes and the emperor was to offer fees. Once this example was opened, the world would be in chaos. If you were granted a title of marquis and officials, you would have to pay such a large offer. How many scholars in the world can afford it?

If this continues, all political affairs will fall into the hands of the powerful and powerful. The country will be in danger and the country will not be far from the difficulties!

The three dukes and four palaces quoted the classics and introduced the family laws of the ancestors and fought according to the rationality.

This made His Majesty, who was worried about getting money, asked anxiously, "Where do you want to seal it?"

The court map is more refined than Liu Bei's hands. After a brief look at the three dukes, they went to Linxiang to find a little bit: they could be named the Marquis of Linxiang. The three dukes' actions also meant to preserve Your Majesty's face. After all, this place is not far from the square city. Your Majesty summoned a ministry to take a picture and read it carefully. Only then did they know that Linxiang had been withdrawn and the land was merged into the nearby counties, and there was no way to define it. Therefore, there was a saying that Liu Bei would enclose his own land.

This is the cause and effect of the entire incident. Of course, there may be some secrets in the forbidden area that "can't be told to outsiders", but it is no longer possible for Cui Tingwei to know.

Marquis Fangcheng is a county marquis who is equal to Marquis Wucheng.

My Majesty has this intention and is considered to be a favor. Although he has to pay 100 million yuan in donations, as far as Liu Bei is concerned, there is no pressure to pay in installments. Most of the Majesty will agree. A marquis of a county can be called a marquis. The foundation of Fangcheng County is definitely much better than that of Linxiang in a barren land.

I am afraid that the masters who followed the map did not know that Linxiangcheng had been destroyed by the flood. There was only one place name left.

By chance, Liu Bei became a victim of the struggle between the emperor and the three dukes. He changed from a veritable county marquis to a veritable town marquis.

At least, that's how Cui Tingwei thinks it. Therefore, there are many such feelings in the letter, such as "no reward for merits" and "disheartened the world".

Of course, you know your own suffering and your own happiness. Liu Bei was named Marquis of Linxiang and let him enclose his land on his own. If he could give him the "arbitrary power" again, he could act cheaply.
