"What do you think?"

Xia Houyu shook his head: "She didn't lie."

"In that case, keep it."

Because Qi Yuanliang was not around, Shen Tang couldn't disguise herself as a man, so she asked Xia Houyu, who was closer to the second ancestor A in terms of body shape, temperament, and age, to do it for him. The woman had been a concubine of the second ancestor A for more than a year. This person is relatively knowledgeable.

The crisis was temporarily over, and the woman secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Xia Houyu was puzzled: "Why doesn't your lord kill this person?"

The woman did not lie, but she also did not tell the complete truth.

As a concubine who was born as a commoner, the help she could provide was very limited. At most, she could tell them the habits and interpersonal relationships of the original owner. Xia Houyu and others also sent people to inquire about this part. Not to mention hiding the truth, she could also fool them for a while.

It doesn't make much sense whether or not to keep women.

Shen Tang said: "Probably because of fate."

Xia Houyu was puzzled: "Fate?"

Shen Tang smiled and said: "Her experience sounds like a fusion of "A Dream of Red Mansions" and "Journey to the West", and her life experience is indeed quite pitiful. Killing her will not affect the overall situation, and not killing her will not affect... leaving her alive will not affect the overall situation..." What’s the problem? As long as she doesn’t seek death.”

"You can kill or not, but I usually choose not to kill."

Xia Houyu: "..."

If you remember correctly, the Lord killed the most people this way, right? Shen Tang was unhappy with him and muttered: "Oh, don't I still need a wig? You and Yourong, who are you? Can you do it? The wigs on the market can’t do it.”

That woman's hair is pretty good.

The hair is shiny black, long, straight and thick.

Divide some for yourself, it's just right.

The hair of the rangers who were surrendered by her was either dry and frizzy or in short supply, which Shen Tang did not like. The only two who liked them were Xia Houyu and Gu De, who said that their parents were affected by their physical and skin problems, so they asked them to give their hair to them. Even they won’t do it themselves!

Xia Houyu: "..."

This place is still three days away from the last destination by water.

Three days is enough for a woman to weave a beautiful wig.

Shen Tang pulled his mind away from Zixu's perspective.

Inside the camp, she touched the thick black hair on top of her head and sighed in a low voice: "Why didn't we think of this way back then? Alas, if we could do this, I don't know how many detours we would have avoided..."

The territory here in Zixu is much better than Wuyou.

Although the territory is not big, the advantage is that you don't have to be exploited.

Yes, exploited.

The person who exploited Wu Yu was still the leader of the Cui clan, Cui Zhi.

As soon as she mentioned this matter, Shen Tang became furious!

She has always been the one to exploit others, when will it be other people's turn to exploit her? Do you really think she is still the same Shen Youli who was in Heyin and the neighbors were not easy to mess with? But unfortunately, in the area under Wuyou's rule, many farmlands are Belongs to Cui!

Reclaiming wasteland requires people.

Farming also requires people.

If Cui refused to cooperate, the rule would almost come to a standstill.

"Cui Erlang?"

Cui Mi smiled softly, as if he didn't know anything about the inside story: "I haven't seen you for a few days, sister Shen. How are you doing lately?"

"Very good, I'm ready to give up my pick."

Cui Mi was surprised: "Didn't Sister Shen just take office?"

"What are you going to do? You might as well go back and ask that good father of yours, and ask him what percentage of the rent he wants to collect from the tenants!" If a family like the Cui family were in the Kangguo territory, they would have killed all the eighteen generations of their ancestors with only their feet left. Neck, "Isn't it always 10% in the past?"

When she took office, she immediately raised the rent.

The common people under the rule knew at a glance that Mrs. Cui wanted to punish her.

There was no trace of surprise on Cui Mi's face.

"Sister Shen is angry about this?"

Shen Wuyoutang asked back: "Otherwise? What else could be the reason? Since your father sincerely forces me to leave, that's fine. I'll just go ask Cui Nujun if we can have a companion on the road together!"

Cui Mi stepped forward to stop her: "Sister Shen, I'm afraid she may have misunderstood."

"Misunderstanding, what misunderstanding can there be?"

"This is really not my father's original intention."

"Not his intention?"

Cui Mi: "Wang Ting's intention."

There is a shortage of food in the royal court, and the officials proposed to increase taxes.

The taxes here in Qi State are different from those in other regions. The royal court will determine an average value based on the annual harvest, and the counties and counties within the territory will pay taxes based on this average value, equal to each place. This can ensure the interests of the treasury, but there are drawbacks - the cultivated area and output of each region They are all different. There are fertile lands and barren lands in Qi State. For example, in Wuyou, a place with many mountains and water but few fields, the per capita output is far lower than the average target line given by Wang Ting. In fact, it was not so serious at the beginning. , but as young people are overwhelmed and run to other places, population loss intensifies, and the pressure becomes heavier and heavier.

This place has been in arrears with taxes to the royal court for three years.
