Transmigrated into a corrupt female county magistrate, defied fate and changed her life in a deserte

Song Jinshu was a little surprised when he saw the person who was speaking.

She had complicated feelings towards Wang Zhizhang. She still remembered that she was tricked by him during the plague period.

At that time, she had a very bad impression of him. Later, when Shi Zhubu came to deliver supplies to her on his orders, her impression of Wang Zhizhang became slightly better.

He was the second one to stand up today, which was quite unexpected to her.

Then he saw Wang Zhizhang holding the agreement and signing his name without hesitation. Song Jinshu was silent. It seemed that this person was not that bad!

Once there is one, there will be two. The other county magistrates stood up and expressed their opinions. If they hesitated any longer, they would lose the rice seedlings.

Rather than being dissatisfied with the merchants, they hoped that the county under their rule would achieve good results.

Song Jinshu took the agreement and looked over it one by one. He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the names were all correct.

"Thank you all for your support and cooperation! The price of these rice seedlings will be based on the grain price in our county: 25 wen per jin of white fine rice."

"Since you don't know the farming methods of my county, I can provide professional training for the villagers in your county..."

"Plus labor costs, travel expenses, living expenses..."

The county magistrates all looked as if it was a matter of course, and even looked happy. They didn't expect that someone would come to teach them. No matter how high the price was, it was worth it.

"...So I'll charge you 17 taels for each acre of rice seedlings, plus 10 taels per person for labor and travel expenses. Isn't that too much?"

The county magistrates immediately shook their heads: "Not excessive! Not excessive at all!"

After he finished speaking, he suddenly paused. "Only 17 taels of rice per mu? In the past, one person only earned 10 taels? Worth it! Absolutely worth it!"

"Hahaha... Lord Song is so straightforward. My county has 900 acres of farmland..."

"I, I, I... a total of 1,600 acres..."

The county magistrates smiled happily and took out their banknotes to order rice seedlings.

The scene was like a town fair, extremely noisy.

Song Jinshu rubbed his aching forehead, raised his head and said, "Everyone, please be quiet! Listen to me! As I said before, there are not many rice seedlings in our county, so you definitely can't plant all the hundreds or thousands of acres of land."

"Report the number of acres of land in your county to County Magistrate Lu. After we have calculated the total, we will allocate rice seedlings to each of your counties!"

"Oh! Look, I'm so happy that I'm confused! I forgot the newly signed agreement right away!" The Datian County Magistrate laughed.

His Datian County is the farthest away and is also the most remote location in Shunan Prefecture. Fortunately, there are many acres of land in the county and the people's lives are okay.

He didn't bring much silver this time, but he had more acres than anyone else present.

After traveling all night, I don’t feel tired anymore.

Wang Zhizhang shook his head with some regret. It seemed that the thick stack of banknotes in his pocket was of no use.

If I had known this would happen, I would not have been embarrassed to borrow from those merchants. Now I have lost face and also lost favors.

Since he couldn't give the rice seedlings after returning, he could only repay the favor in other ways.

The next day, the county magistrates received the number of rice seedlings belonging to their counties.

Fortunately, Song Jinshu was fair. Although the quantity did not meet their expectations, it was able to accurately meet their county's rice seeds for the next year.

The county magistrates paid the money and begged to go and see the rice seedlings.

How could Song Jinshu refuse the request of the financial sponsor?

He went to the breeding base with a group of county magistrates. The villagers who were guarding the rice seedlings were so frightened when they saw so many high-ranking officials.

Song Jinshu patted the villager's shoulder soothingly and asked him to go back and come back later.

The villager's face was so pale that he was really frightened. Song Jinshu was worried that something might happen to him, so he could only let him go home and rest.

When they saw the young shoots growing very well, all the county magistrates were stunned.

They have never seen rice seedlings growing so well since they were drinking milk.

If this is cultivated in one's own county, why worry about the annual grain output?

The Datian County Magistrate immediately prayed to the Buddha: "God bless you! Fortunately, we signed the agreement early, otherwise what would we do if Lord Song regretted it and asked for more money?"

Such high-quality rice seedlings would not be excessively expensive even if they were purchased with gold.

Seeing this, Song Jinshu smiled helplessly, then moved closer to Xiang An and whispered, "Because of our good relationship, I'll give you an extra fifty acres of rice seedlings!"

Xiang An's eyes lit up, and he looked at her happily. Song Jinshu put his index finger to his lips and shook his head casually: "Be quiet, don't let others know."

"Thank you, Song Jinshu!" Xiang An sincerely thanked him.

Because of the plague, Dafang County was the most affected and has yet to recover.

He knew that although Song Jinshu didn't say it, he was thinking about the people of Dafang County in his heart.

……

After that, all counties were busy with spring plowing.

Song Jinshu let go of the people at hand and became free again. Sometimes she went to the technical training academy to find Ran Chu, but she couldn't even see Ran Chu's face, so she could only play with Yaya.

Ever since she mentioned the technical training academy to other county magistrates last time, those county magistrates have been like crazy, spending high prices to invite teachers or students from the academy to come to their own counties for training.

Ran Chu took this opportunity to promote the academy in various places and received a large number of craftsmen coming to visit.

Today the academy has doubled in size.

More and more people are coming to Jingyang County, and the economy is developing better and better.

Song Jinshu vigorously developed the scenic village, attracting many tourists.

Villagers can earn money to support their family expenses without leaving home, and their life happiness index is steadily increasing.

At that time, Kyoto was in an uproar because their General Huo Fang suddenly sent back a secret order. He had annihilated the Wulei Kingdom, which had always been at odds with them, and had returned to the capital with the prisoners.

Xiao Ren was overjoyed and announced the news in the court, shocking all the officials.

Everyone was afraid of Huo Fang from the bottom of their hearts. General Huo Fang was indeed a hero who had never been defeated in a battle and had quietly destroyed an enemy country.

When he returns to Beijing, who in the court will dare to confront him?

Among them, the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Revenue were the most panicked. They remembered that they had withheld military pay and food for various reasons in the past. They knew that General Huo Fang would settle the score when he returned, and their heads would be in danger.

Xiao Ren saw the expressions of the ministers below and felt very happy.

You old bastards, wait until I, Lord Huo, come back, and see who of you dares to give me a hard time again!

As Xiao Ren waited day and night, Huo Fang led his soldiers back in triumph, with the people lining the streets to see them off along the way.

The elderly mothers at home or the wives and children left behind stared at the passing soldiers, eager to find their children, husbands or fathers.

When Huo Fang rode to the outskirts of Kyoto, Xiao Ren had already come to greet him with his ministers.

Looking at the general walking towards him step by step, Xiao Ren's eyes became moist and he excitedly rushed forward to hug Huo Fang.

"My dear General Huo! You are finally back! I have been looking forward to your triumphant return every day!"

Huo Fang pulled Xiao Ren off his body and saluted respectfully.

"Your Majesty! I'm back!"
