Chapter 234: The Flying Eagle
On the second day, Li Ying did as he said yesterday, taking only Du Xing and the two of them on horseback to Zhujiazhuang to visit Zhao Zhen.
Wu Yong welcomed the two of them in and met them. Zhao Zhen looked at Li Ying and saw that he had the head of a tiger and the jaws of a swallow, the arms of an ape and the waist of a wolf, and he was wearing a crimson robe. Later, Du Xing also said as Yan Liu said, "This man is uglier than me." This made Li Ying even more talented.
The guests and hosts were seated, and Du Xing took two brocade boxes from behind and sent them to Zhao Zhen.
Li Ying said: "Master, the former took the gift sent by Zhu Wanmao's fellow. Seeing that he was defeated, he wanted to drag me against Liangshan County. The villain wanted to fight against Liangshan County. The county had no grudges, so they stayed behind closed doors, thus preventing any serious disaster. ”
"The villain sent back the bird's nest sent by Zhu Wanmao. He also heard that high-ranking officials are also fond of practicing martial arts, so he presented a book of flying knives that the villain accidentally obtained."
Zhao Zhen opened it and took a look at it. ,

Effect 1: Taking it will improve the body's health. +1, female's constitution +2.
"Flying Knife Technique": Contains three knife-holding techniques and four knife-throwing techniques, each of which has its own magical effects on the horse and on the horse.
Zhao Zhen said: "I have heard a lot about Master Li's hero. I wonder what the Master is thinking about?"
Li Yingdao: "I am willing to join the army. Although my brother Du Xing is ugly, But he is a smart and clever person. It is most suitable for senior officials to ask him to inquire about information and invite guests."
Wu Yong said: "Brother Li Ying, don't worry, senior officials never judge people by their appearance. They have already found out about Du. Brother Xing is a person, so I went to Lijiazhuang. Although Brother Duxing is only a deputy, his official position is the actual deputy chief of the infantry."
As he said that, Wu Yong discussed with Zhao Zhen. The land policy was discussed with Li Ying. Mountains, forests, rivers, lakes, etc. were all returned to the county, and the fields were re-registered and owned by everyone. The county levied summer and autumn taxes, and Lingtian County redeemed them.
Li Ying listened and agreed one by one. All the land in Liangshan County that he inquired about belonged to the county. Now that the land policy had been changed, he was ready to donate all the land. For me, although I will have to pay taxes in the future, I will also have an official status.
I was even more happy when I heard that Zhao Zhen actually provided a living allowance for the new heroes, a spiritual fish and forged advanced weapons. Li Ying said: "Great officials, small people are used to using one." The iron-pointed steel spears and five willow-leaf flying knives are made of the best iron materials, but unfortunately they are only of the first level. The official has skilled craftsmen here, which can be recast. I still have a lot of iron materials left. Give it to a high official."
Zhao Zhen did not refuse and said: "Brother Tang Long went to Tokyo to visit his uncle and brother. We are counting the days and it is time for more than two brothers to come back. Here, there are also many brothers who use ordinary weapons, and they have to be remade."
Li Yingdao: "My spear is always first-class, so just stick with the other brothers first."
Wu Yong said: "Brother Li Ying, we have settled down here in Zhujiazhuang in the past few days. We will return to Liangshan County soon. Brothers, we have already made preparations here. If there are brave villagers in Lijiazhuang, we can bring them with us." Come together, practice some, and be selected into the three armies.”
After talking for a while, seeing that Zhao Zhen was busy, Li Ying and Du Xing said goodbye and left.
On the way, I heard Du Xing say: "The benevolence and righteousness of Zhao Daguan are not disliked by people like Xiaoren, and he actually has an official status."
Li Yingdao: "It is better to meet each other than to be famous. , meeting is worse than being famous. I also thought about donating the land, but I never thought that the high officials had already prepared it, and the land could be bought and sold. Although the more fields, the higher the taxes. After I returned, Brother Xiang helped me organize the land into a book. With my position, I can own 300 acres of land. After excluding the two taxes and the money to hire farmers, I can't make ends meet. Apart from the rest allocated to farmers, my brothers also have 100 acres of good land, and the rest is sold to the county. ."

Not to mention that after Li Ying returned to Lijiazhuang, he took inventory of the treasury and fields, packed up the equipment, and settled the farmers.
Just talking about Zhao Zhen, all the captive households in Zhujiazhuang and Hujiazhuang were released, and they promised that if there were casualties in the family, the two taxes would be reduced by half this year.
Every family is given a load of grain and rice. At the same time, widows who have no young men in their families select meritorious soldiers from the army who are willing to get married, and choose one of them to get married. The county sent congratulatory gifts, and Wu Yong and Pei Xuanjing have been busy with this these days.
Zhao Zhen also summoned the elders of Zhujiazhuang Township and selected an old man with the compound surname Zhongli and a single character to be Li Zheng. After a few actions, most of Zhujiazhuang's hatred dissipated.
After the fields were measured clearly, land deeds were re-issued to each household. The fields that originally belonged to Zhu Chaofeng's family were regarded as public fields and were still rented to farmers.
After finishing his work in Zhujiazhuang, Wu Yong went to Hujiazhuang and cleared the land, made the land deed, and stamped it with the seal of Liangshan County. He still appointed Hu Taigong as the official, and appointed Hu as the head of the infantry. He recruited 300 people from Hujiazhuang village and made Yan Liu his deputy general.
As for Lijiazhuang, Li Ling, the brother of Li Ying's clan, was there. Zhao Zhen discussed with Li Ying and transferred Li Yun and Shi Qian from the county to lead soldiers from both capitals to garrison.
Li Ying not only recruited 300 brave Zhuang Ding into the army. He also donated all the equipment, armor, and horses on the farm.
The bankers recruited from Sanzhuang and the minions brought by Shi Jin were all sent to the Wanzicheng camp for training.
The allocation was certain, and Zhao Zhen broke out of camp and returned.
Passing by Heihu Temple Town, Zhao Zhen's soldiers and horses lined up, and the township head Gao Qiao led the villagers to open the door and surrender.
Zhao Zhen asked and found out that these days, many sergeants were stationed in the camp left in Zhujiazhuang. Although they did not come to the town to harass them, the villagers in the town were frightened all day long, lest they suddenly break in. Enter the town. After all, bandits are like combs and soldiers are like grates.
Now that Zhao Zhen sent someone to summon him to surrender, Takahashi breathed a sigh of relief and immediately opened the door to surrender after hearing this.
Although Heihumiao Town is a township, there are actually only more than 600 households, which is not as good as Lijiazhuang on Dulonggang. Most of the population in the town are farmers. Because it is located in a deep mountain with many forests, many people here are skilled in carpentry.
After carefully reading the village records, I found that there was a record in it that there was a coal mine in the mist ten miles away from the city.
This was the first time Zhao Zhen discovered a mineral deposit. He immediately spent five points of luck to dispel the fog and include this mine in the county.
Sun An's capital and horse troops were left to garrison in Black Tiger Temple Town. After the Wanzi City camp trained their soldiers well, Shi Jin's capital troops and horses were also transferred here to garrison.
Relying on the Ma Jun's footsteps, we contacted in the middle to coordinate Dulonggang. Zhao Zhen was still worried about Zhu Yongqing. It wouldn't be long before Yun Tianbiao from Jingyang Town would come back, and there would be another fight.
