After his parents settled down, Zhou Bai did not immediately return to Hongxi Township, but stayed in the county for a few days.

His soul is now uncomfortable, and it is difficult to make progress in reading the Taoist scriptures, so he simply deals with the idle affairs of human relations.

For example, as a show talent in the first examination of the county exam, he must be a student in the county, and he can freely choose whether to enroll in the official school according to the rule.

Zhou Bai naturally won’t go, the county school has a slightly higher level of teaching, and the other instructors are all according to the book, where can they teach something.

So he went directly to the counselor to report, did a good job of registration, and chose not to enroll in the county official school.

When I went to the teaching, I must have to communicate with the recent talents of the county, and it is essential to eat and entertain.

Just Xiucai’s identity has so many people’s feelings, and Captain Yun will naturally only have more. In addition to the canon and the county order, he also visited the three officials of the county

office, the chief bookkeeper, and the county lieutenant.

It means that I will also be regarded as a person in the system in the future, enjoy eight-grade treatment, and I must inform him of anything in the Pingcang Realm.

Duan Dehou, the county’s inspector from the ninth grade, Zhou Bai did not think that the official was small and looked down on, and specially arranged a meal to mention the routine given to him this year.

That’s right, it wasn’t the little inspector who gave Zhou Bai the benefit of the cloud riding captain, but Zhou Bai gave Duan Dehou silver on behalf of the Zhou family.

This is the way of dealing with local tyrants, not to mention inspection, even if the six-room officials have some benefits every year.

Since the various industries of the Zhou family have developed smoothly and smoothly for so many years, all kinds of taxes are also in accordance with the lowest grade that can be collected.

Duan Dehou saw that this young upstart was not difficult to greet at all, and he became more and more attentive, and if he didn’t hold his thighs, he wouldn’t be able to hold it completely in the future.

So he immediately patted his chest and promised that the inspectors would pass more during the period of land reclamation in Hongxi Township, and secretly reported a few names to Zhou Bai.

They are all Duan Dehou’s henchmen in the inspection office in the nearby township, as long as he reports his name, he can make one or two calls.

This is also the situation that Zhou Bai is eager to see, the county soldiers in charge of the county captain are too eye-catching, and these inspectors who no one can look at can consider developing a relationship.

There is a use of fighting a hard battle, but there is a usage that cannot be fought.

After the affairs on the official face were handled, before he could accompany Yue Yun to go shopping, Zhou Bai was invited by the Chen, Qian, Shi, Yu and other county Hao families. If the Chen

family wants to use Chen Yun’s trace of contact to completely sit on the title of half-master, they can see that in front of such Tianjiao, there is no gap between the county and the township people. And the Shi family,

just want to marry, find a potential stock like Zhou Bai for their granddaughter, even if Shi Hongmao dies in the future, he is not afraid that the family will not be taken care of.

To be honest, Zhou Bai is very moved, because as long as they are married, the Shi family will inevitably fully support the development of the Zhou family, and they will be able to eat their family inheritance in the future.

In addition to Shi Hongmao, the official of Shijing, the Shi family only has forging skills that have been passed down from generation to generation, and the agricultural tools and even weapons produced by their family are first-class, and they have a good reputation in the counties near Cangshan.

Even the Grassland Jin Kingdom had tried to spend a lot of money to buy the forging secrets of the historians, but they were only discovered and warned by the imperial court.

And marrying a historian is equivalent to including the Yu family in the alliance.

Because the Yu family is also thin, their pillar industry is mining, and they own several small iron and copper mines in Pingcang and even Bei’an County.

Business is interdependent, and they have always been friends with historians, often advancing and retreating together.

This is also the biggest reason why the two families, as the weakest county hao families who are not a threat and weakest, can still gain a foothold in Pingcang and prevent Zhao Chenqian and other families from annexing.

As long as the marriage is expected to get the support of the two county tycoons, which can greatly shorten Zhou Bai’s savings time.

However, it is a pity that Shi Hongmao wants to marry, and he wants to let Zhou Bai into trouble, saying that if he has children in the future, he can inherit the Zhou family separately.

It can be seen from here that this famous person is not just as simple as the great benevolent person rumored outside, he still has the idea of revitalizing the family, just borrowing the power of his son-in-law.

Before Zhou Bai was selected, this condition seemed to outsiders to be enough.

The temptation is indeed not small, but Zhou Bai cannot agree, how could this world have heard that a son-in-law can do things and open up a foundation.

If this is done, I am afraid that the small team that has just been established will be lost and will no longer be loyal to him.

Later, Zhou Bai thought about it, even if we talk again, maybe Shi Hongmao will give in at most, and the position of the right wife is certain.

However, he can accept a political marriage, but he cannot accept that his wife has no feelings, especially if the other party is only a mortal.

Therefore, Zhou Bai still politely refused Shi Hongmao’s temptation, saying that he needed to go down to the exam and enter the shi, and not be distracted elsewhere for the time being.

In the future, if he is a fellow scholar, or even a celestial being, it will be better to talk to a historian about conditions.

After a series of personal exchanges, when Zhou Bai returned to Hongxi Township with Yu Yuejun, it was already the end of April.

The drought eased, Ji Hongzhe officially supervised the implementation of the new policy, and Zhou Bai also made the family force respond to the new policy. In fact, before the Zhou family,

they did not reclaim the ethnic field to the highest standard of 9,999 acres, in addition to spending energy on operating various shop industries, that is, the land around the Zhou family field was red.

The family’s ancestral land is nearly twenty miles from Cangshan, and it could have continued to move forward when it took root and erected the ancestral hall, but there was an extremely precious water source here, and two streams gushed out from the ground fissure, which was to choose to bind the family’s future family field expansion.

It cannot be said that the ancestors of the Kai tribe did wrong, and no one is willing to leave if there is a water source in Pingcang County that can be settled.

And it is precisely because of the abundant water source that the family currently has more than half of the more than 6,000 acres of paddy fields, and the annual harvest ranks among the top in the county, which is completely enough to feed the entire township.

Speaking of which, Zhou Mingxuan’s generations are also forced to develop business, and the surrounding area of the clan field is red mud, and grain cannot be grown.

In this way, Zhou Bai appointed Zhou Qi to dig red mud, and then set the target of the reclamation of the clan field near Cangshan Mountain.

As for the most critical issue of water sources, in addition to knowing that above Cangshan Mountain, there are several hidden mountain springs that can lead to the underwater mountain.

Then there is his main work direction in the inner province now, trying to grow drought-resistant crops, and the sweet potatoes, bud rice, artichokes and other things purchased by the Qi family at a large price have all been trial-planted in Zhou Bai’s estate.

The Central Plains Humane Dynasty, surrounded by many fiefdoms, are all the sons of Heaven and the heirs migrated and divided into fiefdoms, this category is a vassal country like the Jin Kingdom.

There are also Terrans living overseas, and these small ethnic groups are different from the Central Plains, so they are called Fan States.

At present, the crops in Fanbang are germinating and growing, and Zhou Bai assured the clan that if there is a problem with the yield at harvest, it will never be planted on a large scale.

But in fact, because of the experiment in the previous life, Zhou Bai is completely confident that the harvested Fanbang grain seeds can also be highly yielded in arid areas.
