It was already June 4th when Li Luo returned to Jianghua Island, Gaoli.

He went out of Hainan on May 5th and returned on June 4th, which took a whole month.

Fortunately, he is not a minister, otherwise he would be a minor loss of office just because he was away from his post for a month.

Li Luo parked the ship at the port, leaving a hundred people to guard it for the time being, and then walked ashore in Mani Township. He saw crops growing everywhere, which made him feel safe and fulfilled.

It seems that at least this year is a bumper year for Mani Township.

This is of course related to the people-friendly policies he implemented before, especially the repair of water conservancy and irrigation.

He is not a Korean, but an official from Korean, so how can he ignore people's livelihood?

"The king of the country is back!"

"I have met the hometown gentleman Simida!"

"Oh, Xiangjun, how can you walk? Please ride our oxen, Simida!"

When the Goryeo people on the roadside saw Li Luo returning, they were all surprised and knelt down in the fields to greet each other.

Although Li Luo knew that "Qingjun" was the honorary title of the township official in Goryeo, he always thought of the title of the wife of the Central Plains imperial decree, and felt strange.

Yan Duo was very pleased to see it. Li Luo was so popular with the people, and he really had the style of good officials and wise men in ancient times.

Finally, Li Luo and Yan Duo rode two oxen from the villagers and returned to Lijiawu Fort.

As soon as they came back, Du Lie and Wu Tu, who were responsible for the staying behind, took the initiative to report on the matters of the month in detail.

The two hundred left-behind township heroes have completely completed the training of recruits, including queues, hand-to-hand swords, archery, coordination, and military laws, and can be used to fight.

The newly recruited Han people from other three townships have been forced to recruit all the Han people in each village, with a total of 900 people. However, because Li Luo was not present and could not stamp and sign, the villages have not handed over to the township.

Something big happened during this period.

Half a month ago, nearly a hundred pirates suddenly landed in the middle of the night and raided Lijiawu Fort. However, the walls of the fort were high and deep, and the defense was tight. The pirates encountered a bloody end when they arrived, and they dared not fight and quickly evacuated.

Du Lie and Wutu were worried that this was a pirate's plan and were worried that the fort would be in trouble, so they did not leave the fort to pursue it.

Fortunately, the pirates were defeated and were like dogs who were stranded. They boarded the ship and fled into the sea in panic, without harming the villagers.

According to Do Lie's judgment, that group of pirates should be the thief who destroyed the Park family last year, and the target of Ganghwa County has been offering rewards.

After Do Lie and Wu Tu reported, the housekeeper Lee Min Ho also took the initiative to report on the matters of the Intermediate Court.

Dozens of students from Yeyuetang insist on reviewing the homework assigned by Li Luo and Cui Xiuning every day, and study hard every day.

The other servants in the family were all polite and obedient, and nothing went wrong.

This month, a total of 218 guan was spent, of which nearly 200 were purchased for the purchase of 200 left-behind village heroes.

In terms of average monthly meal expenses per soldier!

Even the Imperial Guards of King Goryeo probably did not have this treatment. Although Li Luo's village hero has a strong training intensity and has a long time, he has a full meal of white rice and white flour. He eats meat every day, so he should not eat too much.

Another important thing.

Ten days ago, a visit from the Li family in Renzhou came to visit and said that they would meet the head of the family Li Luo.

The person who came left a message and said that after Li Luo came back, he would ask him to go to Renzhou Li's Mansion to speak.

After hearing all the reports, Li Luo first became interested in the group of pirates. They suddenly attacked, probably because it was not by chance.

At this time, Du Lie suddenly thought of something and said, "Wolf Lord, a villager once sent a wax ball to the wolf Lord or his wife, and his subordinates dared not to disassemble it."

After Du Lie finished speaking, he found a wax ball.

When Li Luo crushed the wax balls, he saw that there was only a small note inside, which read eight words: "May 18th, pirates attack at night."

The signature is: Woodcutter.

It turned out that it was the information sent by Ji Ding, the manager of the Liu Mansion. The woodcutter was the pseudonym given to Ji Ding by Cui Xiuning.

Even if he and Cui Xiuning are in Haidong, her intelligence network is still in play.

That group of pirates was indeed invited by the Liu family.

Li Luo sneered. Liu Chengqian was dead. Unexpectedly, his younger brother Liu Chengming is not at ease now and actually colluded with pirates to deal with him.

It seems that this shitty Liu Mansion can't be kept anymore.

But now I don’t care about the Liu family and let them be more majestic for a while.

"Let's rest for a day today to slow down seasickness. Tomorrow, the four villages will be convened to discuss matters. I will visit Li's Mansion in Renzhou in a few days..." Li Luo made arrangements in his heart.

The next morning, dozens of villages in four townships were summoned to Lijiawu Fort and gathered together.

Whether it is the familiar village chief such as Gao Jian, Dong Ge, or more unfamiliar village chiefs, they all look respectful.

The Muramasa all know that this Lord Li is not a foolish decoration, but a ruthless character with means and strength.

Anyone who feels perfunctory because he is young will definitely not have good results. There is more than one unlucky village official before, which is the lesson of the past.

Just looking at one, everyone knows that the Moses Li family and the Mobei Liu family are not in the way. Logically speaking, the Liu family is so powerful that the Li family has long been destroyed.

But the Li family is becoming more and more prosperous, and the Liu family has no choice but to do with the Li family.

From this we can see, how could Li Luo be simple?

Li Luo was too lazy to figure out what the village officials were thinking. He didn't go around the corner. After asking about the situation during this period, he simply assigned tasks neatly.

"The wheat is about to be harvested. Not only do each village must fight locusts, but also beware of water. It is not a fun thing to catch fire in the wheat fields! Everyone should be careful when they go back and supervise more."

"Also, rice is now grouting and uses a lot of water. You guys can't worry about the village affairs of irrigation and water distribution..."

All the villages are timid and accept the orders with pride.

After Li Luo finished talking about the rural affairs and village affairs, he ordered the butler Lee Min Ho to arrange sour plum soup to entertain everyone and relieve the scorching summer in June.

The summer cicada outside the yard was chirping "Chilia...Chilia" and everyone was stuffy. Li Luo simply asked everyone to take off their hats and untied them without having to sit (kneel).

After drinking sour plum soup again, the villages felt better. They thought that Lord Li was considerate of his subordinates, not the kind of harsh or old-fashioned Shangguan.

Li Luo talked about the second major event.

"Everyone should know that next year the emperor will conquer Japan, and every county in Goryeo will send troops. Before, because the Mongolian official Turnuma was killed in our county, the king implicated the king to take over the Yuan court, so the king punished our county and took on more military service."

"There is not enough official troops in our county, so we naturally have to rely on the village heroes. The village heroes will most likely die when they go to the Japanese country with their army next year. This is why the county magistrate recruits Han people and refugees. But this is true, as long as I know about the Goryeo people, and we cannot preach them to the Han people."

"When you go back, be sure to choose the strong Han people and let those who are not suitable for military service. You must always look like you, and you will be able to make a deal next year..."

After talking about the second thing, Li Luo talked about the third thing that completely pretended to be a private person.

"Everyone goes back and count how many immigrants from Western countries are in each village. These refugees from Western countries are not me, Goryeo, but they plant the Goryeo fields. This is not OK. I decided to send them back to their hometowns and send them back to the Central Plains. Then I will share their fields with Goryeo people."

Muramamasaga Kaori couldn't help but say, "Sir, drive away the refugees in the Western countries and distribute their land to the Goryeo people. This is a good thing for the people of Goryeo. However, the government stipulates that the verbal tax and labor service are less. What should I do if the tax and labor service gap is short?"

The reason why the Goryeo government accepted refugees in the Central Plains was mainly to collect more taxes on population and to attract more labor and military service.

In other words, as long as the taxes and labor in a place are not reduced, the government will not care whether foreign immigrants leave or stay.

Li Luo said: "There is a disposal for taxes and labor, and I have made arrangements for the gap in taxes and labor. I have been going to count the household registration of refugees and prepare to migrate as soon as the summer grain is harvested. This is kept confidential in advance to prevent the refugees from being volatile."

"Nine Hundred Townships, we will be sent to train this afternoon!"
