Traveling through ancient times.

Early the next morning, the entire Yunshan Farm was full of people. Most of them had experience working here. With Yucui, Liao Qi and others maintaining order, the whole scene looked busy but not chaotic.

A strong laborer carries a frame on his back and breaks the corn in front, breaking off the corn husks together, and then carries it to the place where the drying mats are laid.

The people working on the drying mats have average physical strength, so they are responsible for tearing off the corn coating, drying it in the sun, and turning it over.

Golden corn cobs, more than a foot long and as thick as an adult's arm, were piled on the drying mat.

On the other side of the drying mat, there is a row of about twenty groups of people, young and old.

The old man was in charge of turning the turntable, while the child put the corn cobs into the feeding port one by one... The plump corn kernels gathered on the drying mat and soon formed a small pile.

In a fully ripe cornfield, the person in front will break off the corn cobs, while the person behind will cut down the corn stalks.

Then the next group of people transported the corn stalks to the open space on the other side and stacked them into haystacks.

... Jiang Yizhou stood next to the pond on the hillside. The fish fry in the pond were growing well. The person who was guarding the pond would put some green grass in it every few days.

The fry were only placed in two ponds, while the other three newly dug ponds were currently being filled with water.

She circled the edge of the hillside and then stood on the side, from where she could see the whole field below, everything in her control.

At this moment, Liao Qi appeared from nowhere, came up to Jiang Yizhou and whispered something.

Jiang Yizhou was slightly stunned. She looked at Liao Qi as if for confirmation. The latter nodded solemnly, with some indescribable excitement deep in his eyes.

Jiang Yizhou thought for a moment and said, "Whether he came here incognito on purpose or not, now that he is in Yunshan, it would be too much if I still pretend not to know."

After saying that, she quickly came down the hillside, walked quickly all the way, went around two small hills, and saw a group of people in the shade of trees in a valley.

Among them was a middle-aged man wearing a coarse cotton gown, surrounded by a group of people.

Jiang Yizhou recognized all the people outside.

In other words, Jiang Yizhou has already entered all the information of these people into Xiao Tongzi's list.

Including the last time when she picked out those troublemakers from more than a hundred people in the courtyard, it was Xiao Tongzi's credit.

These people were none other than the landlords and wealthy businessmen near Yunshan.

Needless to say, the person who was welcomed by these people in the scorching sun must be the current county magistrate of Ximin County mentioned by Liao Qi, Lord He Jimin.

Jiang Yizhou once went to Ximin County, outside the city.

I stayed there for half a day and saw that although the city wall was not particularly tall, everything was in good order.

Occasionally, passers-by would talk about the county magistrate here and praise him highly, saying that he is a good official who is sympathetic to the people and honest and upright.

In the original world, she was a little afraid of dealing with those people wearing official hats. In her old impression, they always spoke in official language, and a sentence had to be said in many roundabout ways. Then you were asked to understand it yourself. If you understood it wrongly, you were basically out. If you understood it correctly, then everything you did was your own business, and they didn't tell you to do this or that.

So...after she came to this world, she never thought about dealing with these people.

Anyway, her central idea is not to violate the rules of this world and to make her fists bigger and harder.

I didn't expect that the county magistrate would come to this remote place.

From what Liao Qi said just now, it seems that the county magistrate came here under the guise of a secret visit to understand the people's sentiments, but in fact he came here to check out the Jiang family's Yunshan farm.

It's been a while since I came here.

Perhaps those landlords and wealthy businessmen had seen the county magistrate in other places before, so they recognized him. After they got to know each other, they all surrounded him.

Jiang Yizhou only needed to think about it for a moment before he understood the purpose of County Magistrate He's coming here.

Waterwheels, high-yield wheat, wheat threshers, and the high-yield corn that was about to be harvested...

As the official of this county, it would be a real dereliction of duty if he did not come to conduct an on-site inspection.

... Jiang Yizhou hurried over after Liao Qi’s report.

A skinny young man next to He Jimin who looked unremarkable whispered something in his ear. He Jimin stood up and politely bowed to them. "You are all good citizens who have made outstanding contributions to the local area. I hope you can support the autumn grain tax revenue and don't make it difficult for a small county magistrate like me. That's it. I still have some things to discuss with the head of Yuanshan Farm. Goodbye, goodbye..."

"So the reason why you took the trouble to come to this remote place is for Miss Jiang. It just so happens that we also have something to discuss with her. Please let us lead the way for you."

The crowd had no intention of leaving at all.

They knew very well in their hearts that since the county magistrate came to see the woman in person and was so friendly, there must be something good going on.

Before the fire of jealousy in my heart could burn, a crisp voice broke the noise.

"I am Jiang Yizhou, the current patriarch of the Jiang family. I am honored to meet you, Lord He. I apologize for not welcoming you in person."

Everyone looked at Jiang Yizhou who suddenly rushed forward. She was a woman, but she stood among the gentry and wealthy families as openly as a man, and in front of the dignified county magistrate. She also bowed like a man, instead of bowing like a woman.

Her expression was calm and solemn, and her manners were generous and showed the integrity of a head of the family. For a moment, everyone was speechless about Miss Jiang, who was different from the many rules of the era that prohibited women from "showing their faces in public".

He Jimin had been here for most of the day and had already asked many people on the periphery, including ordinary merchants and farmers.

It can be said that he already had a deeper and clearer understanding of what happened in Yunshan Farm.

It was precisely because of this understanding that he was filled with curiosity about the man who had made the farm so prosperous.

Especially after confirming that the current head of this farm is a woman, the respect and curiosity became even stronger.

So, he deliberately revealed his whereabouts, and then...

As expected, he was not disappointed. When the other party learned that he was coming, he hurried over without any pretense.

When Jiang Yizhou approached and saluted, He Jimin looked him over subtly.

The dress is simple, with only a bun on the head and a wooden hairpin. The top is a loose cotton short shirt, with a half-length light-colored jacket on the outside, and the same color skirt and pants underneath.

The whole person looks neat and capable, but does not give people a sense of strength and aggression.

He Jimin quickly raised his hand to support him, and said with a smile: "I came here incognito on purpose without informing you. Ignorance is the fault of those who do not know. Master Jiang, please stand up."
