I lead the system to tease the First Emperor to build infrastructure

Chapter 232
Lu Jing quickly explained why he was here, which attracted Zhao Jun and Xiao He's attention.

Although there is luck, it can also give a glimpse of this person's strength.

"By the way, I haven't asked Mr. Zhao why you suddenly appeared in Shu County."

Lu Jing was a little puzzled. After all, Shu County had been rumored to have rough roads, and very few officials came here on purpose.

Zhao Jun briefly talked about the inspection, including the situation when they just came from Berkshire.

"So that's the case, Mr. Zhao has worked hard all the way."

"Okay, let's not talk about those polite words. We were shocked when we arrived in Shu County today. It doesn't mean that many people don't want to come here, but I think Shu County is developing very well now. It doesn't look like a wild place. land."

"There are still so many foreign merchants, and what kind of Shu embroidery, what is the situation in Shu County, tell me."

With acquaintances, it is easier for Zhao Jun to ask questions freely.

"My lord, let me tell you what I know first. After all, I haven't been in office for less than a year, and I don't know much about some things."

"First off, let me tell you about it. If you want to know more about it later, you can ask Zheng Zhonghui, the censor, to come over. He has been in Shu County for several years, and he knows some things better."

Lu Jing was vaccinated first, and he was not so clear about some situations, so he will first tell Zhao Jun what he knows.

Zhao Jun understood, cheered up and listened to him.

"The reason why there are so many foreign merchants in Shu County is that there are good things here. In addition to the Shu embroidery that everyone is vying for, there are also rabbits that can be raised and sold all year round."

"My lord, you also know that basic food is relatively scarce now, even less meat, but Shu County has turned rabbit breeding into a big business. Shu County is mountainous, and there is no shortage of food for raising rabbits, and the breeding of rabbits The speed is extremely fast, and every household raises rabbits throughout the year, so many merchants come to Shu County to buy rabbits."

"Also, my lord, you can also see that the location of our Shu County is not as difficult as outsiders think. Most of the mountains in Shu County are behind, so it is actually very convenient for many merchants to travel to and from Shu County."

"Of course, apart from rabbits, what these merchants want more is Shu embroidery and Shu brocade. There is a big family in Shu County. Their family has unique embroidery and dyeing techniques. The Shu embroidery produced is very exquisite and beautiful, and the price is very high. Demand exceeds supply."

"These two months of each year are the time when their homes are sold intensively, so these two months are the busiest time in Shu County. It's just a coincidence, my lord."

Lu Jing did not forget to tease at the end.

"I get it roughly."

This is similar to Berkshire in that there is a local snake family.

"Is this big family surnamed Chen?"

Xiao He remembered what the waiter in the restaurant said before, so he asked.

Lu Jing turned to look at him for an answer.

"That's right, the surname is Chen, but it's a success."

Success?

"Tell me about this family, do you know anything about this family?"

Zhao Jun is still very keen on getting to know the local land snake family.

"This family is known locally, and I have heard of their names when I first took office."

"The married family has always been a native of Shu County. It is said that the family has been in Shu County for hundreds of years. The married family of this generation is mainly composed of four people, a pair of twin sisters and a pair of twin siblings."

Twins or two pairs?
This is still very rare in this day and age.

"Among the four, the elder sister Cheng Jing is the head. It is said that she has the most comprehensive knowledge of the inheritance of Shu embroidery in the Cheng family. The two younger sisters in the middle are Idiom and Cheng Xin, and the youngest brother is Cheng Yi."

"The Marriage family has a great influence in Shu County. It is said, ahem, gossip."

Lu Jing lowered his voice and said gossip.

"It is said that the reason why the previous sheriff was suddenly transferred seems to be related to their family."

Um?There is also such gossip.

The energy of starting a family has been able to influence the head of a county?

"Then you, the newly appointed sheriff, have to be careful."

Zhao Jun joked.

She didn't care much, and she didn't know how true or false it was.

"By the way, my lord, there is actually another reason why Shu County is so lively during this time."

Lu Jing smiled and said again.

"Sister Cheng, that's the Chengjing I just mentioned. She wants to hire a new wife, so everyone who heard the news has come. Everyone wants to be a quick son-in-law, so that they can learn the skills of starting a family in the future."

Recruit?

"Did the elders who got married have no objection?"

Zhao Jun remembered what happened to Dou Jiaying in Hanzhong before, and now he has a great reaction to the woman's recruitment.

"No, there is nothing to object to, and because the special skill of starting a family is easier for women to master, so there is something more special about this starting a family, that is, a woman is the head of the family, the eldest daughter of their family or the inheritance of Shu embroidery skills Those who are not allowed to marry outside.”

Lu Jing spoke very lightly, but the few people listening to him were quite shocked.

"How is it possible for a woman to be the head of the family? What about the man in this family, right?"

Liu Bang was the first to express disbelief and disagreed.

Zhao Jun is too lazy to talk to him, this man's machismo cannot be saved.

"Women are in charge of the family. I have never heard of it before, but since the family has been like this for generations, there is no need for others to comment. What's more, I think the eldest sister of the family is definitely no worse than a man."

Xiao He did not show any objection, but was slightly shocked.

Not to mention Jun Zhao, she really wants to meet someone who is married now. The family that can make such a judgment must be very enlightened, and the eldest sister of the married family is definitely not an ordinary person.

"Master Xiao's words are right. You will definitely see this married elder sister in the future. She is indeed a very talented person."

"The lower official has been in office for less than a year, but I think her talent can be compared with adults."

Lu Jing has seen Zhao Jun's ability before, and being able to make him say such things is enough to show the talent of this Cheng Jing girl.

"Since this is the case, we have already come to Shu County, and we will naturally have the opportunity to meet each other in the future."

"By the way, I have another question to ask. The location of Shu County is indeed convenient. Why do people say that the road to Shu is difficult? I think the roads here are far from those in Berkshire."

Zhao Jun has been walking all the way, and there is still a problem that he still doesn't understand.

"Returning to my lord, this is because the roads in the county are really convenient, but most of the county towns and places in Shu County are still surrounded by mountains."

"If you want to visit the counties in the future, the road will be very difficult."

Lu Jing deeply felt that although the prefectures and counties are lively, the roads are also very difficult when he occasionally goes to other counties.
