After traveling through time, I rely on force to survive

Li Qingqing looked at Xie Xuanan, she blinked, and remembered what Zhou Yimo said in the letter:

"Master Xie was dispatched to the border this time to transport supplies and personnel. This was an official act, not an unauthorized absence."

This means that County Magistrate Xie can appear here openly.

This..., asking the acting county magistrate to send the regular county magistrate to run errands and deliver goods, is this procedure legal?

But who cares whether it is compliant or not!

Since this guy had already come to the border and brought all the supplies she needed, she naturally welcomed him.

Besides, he can be recruited as a helper temporarily!

So Li Qingqing didn't think much about it, she smiled and said to Xie Xuanan:

"Thank you, sir, for your hard work! Let the village head take you to the proper storage of supplies first."

"Okay." Xie Xuan'an nodded, it was important to get the business done first.

Ever since his disguise was accidentally exposed by Master Qiu last time, he simply stopped pretending.

He had no interest in the affairs of the county government anyway, and was just waiting for Zhou Yimo to be promoted as a regular employee as soon as possible so that he could step down.

It would be a good opportunity to pass on the news of his inaction as a county magistrate to Kyoto, so that those people would still mistakenly believe that he was still the unruly Second Master Xie of Anyuan Marquis Mansion.

So that the person wouldn't always wonder if he had something in his hand.

When Xie Xuan'an heard Li Qingqing instructing the village head to lead the way, he immediately instructed the grocery store owner next to him to bring people to lead the carriage and oxen and let them follow the village head.

He stood next to Li Feng, planning to reminisce about the past with Li Qingqing after she was settled.

He has a lot to ask Li Qingqing!

After Li Qingqing asked the village head to take Xie Xuan'an's caravan to settle down, she turned her attention to Hu Dabao.

In the letter, Zhou Yimo mentioned that Hu Dabao had great leadership skills, and since the road construction was completed, he recommended him to Mr. Feng.

Now Hu Dabao has been officially absorbed as the head of Qingfeng Pavilion, becoming the human resource of Qingfeng Pavilion in the open in the world.

The thirty-seven men under his command and the three thousand bandits were all under his command.

Li Qingqing looked at the more than 3,000 people behind Hu Dabao. They were all standing in an orderly manner and there was no sign of any banditry.

It seems that after Hu Dabao stopped being a gangster, he became much more calm and steady in doing things.

There should be some guidance from Zhou Yimo here, right?

When she thought of this, Li Qingqing felt that she owed Zhou Yimo a little.

In order to help her support Qingfeng Pavilion, Zhou Yimo searched everywhere for suitable personnel for her.

As soon as she said she was short of labor, Zhou Yimo would find ways to get it for her without any hesitation.

When Zhou Yimo asked her to teach him medical skills, she just casually threw two books to him.

I don’t know how he is doing in his studies?

When Li Qingqing thought of this, she just wanted to arrange these people as soon as possible and then ask Xiao Xie later.

She then looked at Hu Dabao with admiration and said:

"Brother Hu, the town currently has insufficient housing. I can only trouble you and your people to assist everyone in building all the housing as quickly as possible."

Hu Dabao and his men have some experience in building ordinary houses, so it would be most appropriate to hand it over to him.

Nowadays, it is not suitable to build brick and tile houses in border towns, and all blue bricks must be used to build city walls.

Moreover, so many people needed to be settled as soon as possible, so the only options were wooden houses, adobe houses, stone houses, and thatched houses.

In short, adapt to local conditions, use local materials, and build the house as quickly as possible.

Hu Dabao was originally looking at Li Qingqing excitedly, but when he heard her speak, he couldn't help but be stunned: "Brother Hu? Are you calling me?"

Hu Dabao was stunned.

His legs went weak and he almost fell down.

Hu Dabao: My dear sister! This name is really embarrassing for me!

Although Li Qingqing was dressed as a man at this time, and although she had become the city lord here without knowing when,

But he recognized the familiar aura and the fierce look that glanced at him at once. This was clearly the master himself!

It was just that before leaving, County Magistrate Zhou repeatedly told him to talk less and do more, so he kept it to himself.

At this moment, when Hu Dabao heard Li Qingqing calling him "Brother Hu", he became nervous and opened his mouth to speak without thinking.

"big,--"

Li Qingqing then glanced at him and asked with a half-smile, "Brother Hu, should it be okay for your people to be responsible for building the house?"

"Big, big, no problem building a house!"

Hu Dabao felt the pressure in Li Qingqing's eyes, and his expression straightened. He then turned to the group of men behind him and said:

"The Lord of Qing City has asked us to be responsible for building the house. Do you have any questions?"

"We guarantee to complete the mission!" The subordinates responded loudly in unison.

"Lord Qing! You can just call me Dabao. We promise to complete the mission!"

Hu Dabao was very proud, and immediately looked at Li Qingqing with sparkling eyes, as if asking for praise.

Hu Dabao: Look! I trained these bandits you gave me well, didn’t I?

Li Qingqing looked at Hu Dabao's smug look and couldn't help but smile and nodded.

She looked at Li Tiezhu again and said:

"Tiezhu, your men should follow Dabao now and build housing near the brick kiln. From now on, the brick kiln management will be left to you!"

"Yes!" Li Tiezhu responded immediately after hearing this.

Li Tiezhu did not recognize Li Qingqing, who was disguised as a man, and Zhou Yimo did not mention it to him.

The reason why Zhou Yimo didn't mention it was to protect his wife.

Although the Dayuan Kingdom did not prohibit women from serving as soldiers, it restricted women from serving as military commanders.

As to why there is such a regulation, you have to ask the current emperor.

In short, Li Qingqing came to the border to help. If she were a soldier, military regulations would restrict her freedom.

If she were a deputy general, she would have to disguise herself as a man so that she could openly stand up and give orders to others.

Besides, if Li Qingqing gets a fake name, even if she leaves in the future, whether she is sent away or fakes her death, it will be easier for her to get away, right?

Li Tiezhu just followed Zhou Yimo's instructions and asked him to restrict the laborers from saying what they shouldn't say and doing what they shouldn't do when they arrived at the border, and just focus on burning bricks and building walls.

As long as they work hard, not only will they receive their wages, but all workers will also enjoy tax exemptions.

This is a great thing!

An adult laborer, if you calculate the taxes including household tax, head tax, shift tax, land tax, etc., will have to pay at least half a tael of silver a year.

It doesn't matter where you work. For the same wages, working in the border areas can save a lot of taxes.

Therefore, all the labor force brought by Li Tiezhu came voluntarily.

Li Qingqing immediately asked Yunwu to lead Hu Dabao, Li Tiezhu and others to the brick kiln site that had been selected earlier.

After Hu Dabao, Li Tiezhu and others left, Li Qingqing looked at the remaining refugees.

At this time, there was already some noise among the refugees.

Li Qingqing raised her hand to signal them to be quiet and asked, "Everyone, do you sincerely want to settle down here?"

The refugees nodded one after another, and someone in the crowd responded loudly:

"Lord Qing, we were recommended here by Magistrate Zhou and Magistrate Xie of Qiushui Town. We only seek a place to stay!"

Li Qingqing nodded slightly, looking calm.

She said aloud:

"Everyone, rest assured. Now that we're here, as long as we abide by the rules here, we won't have to endure the pain of migration anymore!"
