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

"Ever since County Magistrate Lu left, our master has been busy with official business day and night, and even forgot to eat several times. Look, I see that he has become thinner due to hunger." Li Zi gritted his teeth and shook his head helplessly.

In the past, with County Magistrate Lu helping to handle official business, the adults had a much easier time and would take them out for tours from time to time.

Nowadays, adults rarely go out and are basically busy with miscellaneous affairs in the county.

Datou also sighed slightly and prayed in his heart that County Magistrate Lu would come back as soon as possible.

Inside the house, Song Jinshu was carefully writing a plan, deciding to open up a trade route with other counties. Nowadays, there are more and more outsiders in Jingyang County, and it will soon be full of people.

By then, the population will be large and all will be gathered in one place, which will easily cause trouble in the county.

If we can cooperate with the two neighboring counties and plan a trade route, then there will be jobs available in other counties and the people will have more counties to choose from.

After pondering for a moment, Song Jinshu wrote Dafang County on the paper, hesitated for a moment, and then wrote Guangrao County.

These two counties were chosen by her after careful consideration. Dafang County has a vast area and many people died due to the plague. The population of Dafang County is the smallest in Shunan Prefecture.

Guangrao County has a superior geographical location, rich per capita income, and is very suitable.

Song Jinshu from Dafang County was not worried. Xiang An had a close relationship with her and was willing to develop the county's economy, so he would naturally agree to her invitation for cooperation.

However, the situation in Guangrao County was different. She and Wang Zhizhang had no official relationship and even had a private grudge against each other.

Song Jinshu's confidence was thanks to the apology letter that Wang Zhizhang had sent him some time ago.

Since the other party was willing to make peace with her, Song Jinshu naturally would not refuse. Now that there was an opportunity for cooperation, she still wanted to give it a try.

Therefore, half a month later, Guangrao County and Dafang County received Song Jinshu's letter at the same time.

Xiang An was delighted after reading the letter. He had been coveting the industries in Jingyang County for a long time. It was just a matter of providing a piece of land to build a workshop and making things convenient for foreign merchants.

On the other side, Wang Zhizhang also received the letter and looked conflicted. He was a little tempted, but if so, it would definitely affect the existing merchants in Guangrao County.

After hesitating for two days, Wang Zhizhang finally accepted Song Jinshu's olive branch.

After receiving the news, Song Jinshu immediately found Liu Jiangyue. The cooperation among the three counties was still in the experimental stage, and someone had to take the lead.

The most suitable candidate is naturally the Liu family.

After listening to Song Jinshu's explanation, Liu Jiangyue was surprised for a moment and immediately nodded.

"It just so happens that my business is planning to expand to other prefectures and cities, and I need a lot of goods, so it's convenient to transport them from Guangrao County."

As for Dafang County, Liu Jiangyue had to go there and think about where to build the workshop and who to send to manage it.

Once this news was released, the happiest people were the villagers from other counties who were preparing to come and work.

Who would want to leave their hometown when they can work near home?

Residents from other counties chose county towns closer to them. Because Song Jinshu had made an appointment in advance, homeless beggars were given priority in this recruitment.

Because most of them are in poor health and their wages are not as high as others, they are all deeply grateful for this.

If you have the opportunity to work, you can earn money and buy one or two acres of land to settle down in the future.

For those elderly people who really can't work, Liu Jiangyue assigns them simple jobs at his discretion.

Like cleaning the yard or guarding the warehouse in the middle of the night.

Within half a year, these three counties developed so rapidly that they successfully attracted the attention of other counties.

Especially in Datian County, the farthest away, the county economy is backward and the people's life is hard. It is also far away from Jingyang County, Dafang County and Guangrao County.

While other people's counties are gradually getting better, his county remains unchanged and ranked last in this year's annual assessment.

After thinking about it, the magistrate of Datian County shamelessly wrote a letter of self-recommendation to Song Jinshu.

After receiving the letter, Song Jinshu took a quick glance at it and understood.

However, seeing that she did not have the ability to help Datian County, she could only politely decline and look for opportunities for cooperation in the future.

The magistrate of Datian County was very disappointed, but there was nothing he could do. He could only keep an eye on the villagers and take care of the farmland. When the rice seeds were harvested next year and the grain production increased, it would also be a credit.

Time goes by day by day, and the autumn harvest season is here again.

This year's autumn harvest saw an astonishing grain output in the counties of Shun'an Prefecture.

This matter attracted the attention of other prefectures and cities, and all places were eyeing it eagerly, wanting to get the high-yield rice seeds.

How could it be possible that the rice harvested in Shun'an Prefecture this autumn would be reserved for next year's spring plowing, so they naturally couldn't take it away?

After the busy autumn harvest, Song Jinshu was completely free and returned to his previous leisurely state.

The weather is cold, so I can either go to the hot spring resort to take a bath or play mahjong with Hao Qiulan and Ran Chu.

Or go to Xifang Town to watch a play, and live a comfortable and fulfilling life.

In contrast, the Northern Province, thousands of miles away, has fallen into chaos.

At the entrance of Beizhou City, blood-stained weapons were scattered everywhere. The atmosphere was very solemn, and the air was filled with a faint smell of blood.

After the battle, scattered soldiers went around to check if the people lying down were still breathing.

On the high wall, a lady in her thirties, wearing an exquisite light blue dress, watched all this with a frown.

Beside him was the virtuous king who had been rescued. His face was filled with anger and despair. "Sister, we are trapped here now. Our food will eventually run out. Marquis Munjeong is like a mad dog, biting us relentlessly. How can we break free?"

The princess glanced indifferently at the city walls, thinking of the heavy losses she had suffered in recent days, and her mood darkened. "I had made every possible effort, but I never imagined there would be this variable, Marquis Wen Ding. It almost ruined all my efforts over the years."

"But..." The princess smiled, her eyes gleaming, "We may not lose either. Send someone to Shun'an Prefecture to carefully investigate the previous news about Marquis Wending. Remember to get it in detail."

The wise king was puzzled. Shunan Prefecture was very far away from Beizhou, and it would take more than a month to go back and forth. Could his sister hold on for him to come back?

No matter how worried he was, the wise king always listened to the eldest princess and disguised himself as a refugee to sneak out of Beizhou City.

On the other side, Lu Ruoyu and others were gathered together to discuss the siege, when their subordinates came to report the whereabouts of the virtuous king.

Huo Fang, who was sitting at the head of the table, laughed out loud upon hearing this. He looked at Lu Ruoyu beside him and exclaimed, "How did you predict that they would leave privately?"

During this period, Huo Fang and Lu Ruoyu fought side by side. When he saw him, he was surprised by his identity and angry that he had deceived his sister.

After that, he helped her many times, and their relationship became harmonious and they resolved their misunderstandings.

Lu Ruoyu said calmly, "The eldest princess is very attentive and good at hiding. She just thought she was trapped here by me. I rarely appear, and she doesn't know my daily behavior. Now that I have released my origins, she will have to investigate in order to win every battle."

"Besides, she is very cautious. The only person she trusts to handle this matter is the wise king."

"I see." Huo Fang nodded in agreement, then his eyes darkened slightly. "Aren't you afraid they'll find out about Jingyang County?"

"Or hurt my sister?"
