Although Shen Tang can’t wait to see Shen Zhi, Shen Zhi is still in Ruyao, and it will take some time to come back and forth. Sharpening the knife does not waste time chopping firewood. In addition to a few necessary tasks, Shen Tang transferred the extra manpower to open up the wasteland and reserved it for preparation.

"Jiyi, there is one more thing I need from you——"

Luan Xin respectfully said: "My lord, please tell me."

"The wasteland in Longwu County was in the past The reclamation has been completed in two years, and the common people in the territory can contract land from the county government for farming according to the number of people in the family..." Shen Tang drafted in his mind, trying to express his meaning tactfully.

Luan Xin looked at her with gentle eyes, waiting for the next step.

"...Because we have been absorbing refugees, there are not many fields left for cultivation within the territory, and the cotton issue is related to the common people of the three counties to survive the cold and winter in the coming year. It is urgent and cannot be delayed." Shen Tang said. He pointed at the map screen at the back of the meeting hall, "But the people in Sibao County are withered and the fields are abandoned. If you want to plant cotton on a large scale, you will definitely consider this place first."

Luan Xin asked: "My Lord What do you mean?”

After laying the groundwork, Shen Tang was finally able to tell his plan: "If you want to plant cotton on a large scale, high-quality cotton seeds are essential. The only person who has the ability to do this now is you. and Lingde. Lingde will stay in Sibao County for a short period of time, but the people from her government office can't get her there. There are some things that I need you and your government officials to help facilitate."

Necessary. You also need to obey Lin Feng's dispatching orders.

Finally finished.

She planned to let Luan Xin lead a group of Cao officials to assist Lin Feng in an effort to prepare enough cotton seeds before planting next year. During this period, it would be better if the cotton seeds could be optimized.

To obtain a large amount of high-quality cotton seeds, you must use your energy to generate cotton seeds over and over again, and try out the best growing environment and planting methods for cotton seeds. This is not something that just two people can accomplish. The Hucao department official is also a professional counterpart and should be able to help.

But she was also worried that letting Luan Xin assist Lin Feng would make him dissatisfied - why was Lin Feng too young? There is no impressive record in itself that is convincing. Shen Tang's "reasonable" statement was just to hope that Luan Xin wouldn't think too much.

Luan Xin understood now and couldn't help but dumbfounded: "Linhu Cao has extraordinary talents and assisted her in accomplishing this feat, which will benefit generations to come and save countless people from the suffering of cold and exhaustion. This is what Xin could never ask for in this life. It is an honor, my lord, there is no need to worry about it.”

Alas, how could Shen Tang not worry too much?

Her proposal is equivalent to asking a career elite who has been the second-in-command of a large company to help a semi-cute newcomer who has been in the workplace for four years. The key is that this semi-cute newcomer has a low reputation, and the workplace elite is not Came here as a job hopper. Who feels comfortable?

She was also a social worker in the workplace and can empathize deeply.

If a few more frank words can save a lot of misunderstandings, why should she be stingy with this little talk? Seeing Luan Xin's sincere response, she felt relieved. Thinking of what he was going to say next, Shen Tang crossed his hands into fists and kept circling his thumbs: "There is one more thing - ahem, we are currently short of people, especially high-level warriors who can split mountains and gravel... ..."

Luan Xin looked at Shen Tang who looked reserved.

He opened his mouth and said: "My lord, please speak frankly."

Shen Tang loosened his fist, scratched his nose with the index finger of his right hand, and said a little embarrassedly: "I mean there are still a few warriors in Wen Yangong's old army who have not yet 'ransomed themselves' , anyway If you are idle, you are idle. Why don't you persuade them to help with the work for two months? "

It is very inefficient to expect low-level martial arts warriors to move mountains and clear up wasteland. What about middle- and high-level martial arts warriors? There aren't many here. All are invested in production and construction, but the overall efficiency is still low. So, Shen Tang focused on those freeloaders.

Isn’t it natural for prisoners to work?

Luan Xin: “…”

Shen Tang whispered: "I'll leave this matter to you, okay?"

Luan Xin: "..."

Just when Luan Xin was thinking about how to persuade him tactfully without being beaten to death. , the news that Qiu Cheng was defeated and committed suicide spread everywhere. Xu Jie was the first to receive it among them. The tight strings finally loosened and he asked again: "Is there any news about Wenshi?"

When he asked this, his voice was trembling.

Although brave warriors are destined to die on the battlefield, Xu Jie still hopes that his cousin will not be among those buried in horse leather.

The attendant said: "Lang Jun was injured and is still recovering."

Even if he was seriously injured, it would not affect Xu Quan's troubles.

He heard that his idol Gong Xi Qiudou was defeated, and he was depressed. He started a hunger strike without eating or drinking, with an attitude of "I don't believe it, I don't believe it." When he heard that his idol had an irreversible relationship with his lord, he was resurrected on the spot with full health. He clamored and wanted to jump to Xiaocheng on one leg to meet his idol. With such a fanatical and pious attitude, some people thought he was going to worship some god. The attendant's expression was hard to describe: "It is said that General Zhao's daughter couldn't bear it anymore, so she knocked her unconscious and carried her back, and tied her to the couch before she stopped..."

Xu Jie felt doubly embarrassed when he heard this.

I wish I didn’t have such an embarrassing cousin. After a long while, Xu Jie put on his cloak and returned to his study. Looking at the heavy snow, he uttered: "As long as everything is fine..."

"Lang Jun's strength is improving rapidly, parents can rest assured."

"Relax?"

Xu Jie looked in the direction of Longwu County and shook his head.

“I can’t feel at ease, and I worry more and more about him.”

The attendant held an umbrella for him and followed him step by step.

"My subordinates are puzzled."

Xu Jie said softly: "Longwu, the Four Treasures, and the Minfeng you mentioned. Lord Shen holds the land of the three counties in his hands. To my lord, For such an existence, he is already a big threat. How old is Shen Jun? Even Gong Xiqiu was defeated by him... ..."

The attendant said: "...But, Lord Shen is a literary scholar after all, so in terms of threat, he is still not as strong as a brave warrior. Furthermore, the Gongxi Qiu did not submit to Lord Shen. Said..."

Xu Jie asked: "How do you know you didn't surrender?"

Attendant: "If you surrender, how can you leave?"

Xu Jie did not answer, but looked in the direction of the sky and the sea, as if asking himself, and also seemed to ask the attendant: "At this moment, my lord also Is it time to get the news? I don’t know. How long can our lord tolerate this 'friend of Tang Di'..."

"The parents are worried that Duke Zhaode will attack Shen Jun?"

So, Xu Jie He must run into Xu Quan.

"I do have this worry. Because of that 'evil plot' Qi Yuanliang, Qin Gongsu has been guarding Longwu County in the past few years... If the lord also feels a sense of crisis, then he can take advantage of the threat and take advantage of it. Killing it before was the best solution..."

Attendant: "But the lord Zheng Qiao is still alive."

Xu Jie was glad: "Yes, Zheng Qiao is still alive."

Fortunately, Zheng Qiao is still alive.

Otherwise, Shen Tang's attack on Sibao County would be the best opportunity for Wu Xian and others to eliminate the serious troubles they have. However, Zheng Qiao is still alive, so this possibility is slim. To a certain extent, Zheng Qiao is also Shen Tang's shield, buying her enough time.

As for Qiu Cheng’s death?

Xu Jie didn't care at all.

Even if he knew that there was something fishy about Qiu Cheng's death, whether it was a feud between aristocratic families, a feud between brothers, or someone borrowing a knife to kill someone, Qiu Cheng committed suicide on the surface. A coward who has been defeated and committed suicide has no value in being paid attention to by Xu Jie.

"I wonder if Mr. Shen is willing to fight the tyrant together..." This battle has been going on for too long, and the Xu family's business has become more and more difficult every year.

Xu Jie smiled and said: "Shen Jun?"

"It will come naturally."

"If you don't come, Zheng Qiao will fall, and he will be next!"
