"You are people from the county government. You should know that we can't grow crops at all during these days, but the county magistrate keeps asking us to increase taxes again and again. What should we do?"

The old man said that his scalp was numb.

He originally thought that he could tell the whole story now, and as long as they could solve their planting problem as soon as possible, it should be no problem.

Zhu Han listened to the old man's words and immediately realized that there must be some misunderstanding.

Even though he had already arrested Wang An.

He has not yet been able to settle the subsequent matters as quickly as possible, and he still doesn't know how many things are hidden from him among the people.

Seeing the old man retracting the building and continuing to work in the fields without producing anything will make many farmers feel chilly.

"Don't worry, old man, as long as we investigate the truth of this matter, we will solve it as soon as possible. We will never let you waste your time like this."

Hearing Zhu Han's words, the old man's eyes lit up. He stared at Zhu Han intently, his eyes full of admiration.

"What you said is true, but I have long known that people in the government protect each other, and not many people take us common people seriously."

Zhu Han sounded a little helpless. He really couldn't imagine why these people's lives would be like this.

As the county magistrate, Wang An didn't care at all, but if it was normal, he would definitely investigate.

"Don't worry, I am the current county magistrate in charge of these matters. I will help you solve this problem no matter what."

Zhu Han's words gave the old man a glimmer of hope. He watched intently, and Zhu Han's hands trembled slightly.

It can be seen that the old man is very excited, and the people in the government have always ignored him.

Not only do those people have heavy taxes, they also have no way to support their families.

Faced with such a situation, no one could persist for long. Considering the arrangement, when making preparations, they immediately started to solve all these problems.

At this moment, the old man had slowly prepared a plan.

Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Han immediately began to investigate the matter thoroughly.

They did not miss any clues and were fully prepared for this arrangement.

If anyone dares to go against them, the whole ins and outs of the matter will be laid out clearly.

We will not let anyone cause any trouble to the people.

Zhu Han asked He Fengyu to investigate all the past events in the county.

I am ready to solve all the problems this time for the people.

He Fengyu immediately began to summon other people and began to inquire about everything about this arrangement.

When I learned that many fields could no longer grow crops, they were very barren.

The people were shocked, but some people seemed to have known about this situation for a long time.

Especially for Yuan Li, Zhu Han finally helped him and took back his silk and satin shop business.

Mr. Li would not let go of any opportunity to repay Zhu Han. When he learned that there had been a lot of trouble in the county government, he immediately stood up.

Li Yuanwai looked at Zhu Han with a smile on his face. After seeing the problems of the people, he had already come up with some countermeasures.

I want to help Zhu Han.

"Your Majesty, I don't know. The fields planted by the common people are actually in the hands of many officials. After renting out those fields, the common people can plant them themselves."

"They can get some taxes from it. All the taxes paid by the officials at that time were not at all due to their efforts, but to the people who worked hard to plant."

Hearing Yuan Li's words, Zhu Han paused.

He never imagined that something like this would actually happen now. Every year, officials work at extremely fast speeds to make preparations for the county.

After the account books are submitted to the Accounts Department, they can be inspected one by one.

If any county fails to complete its task, it will naturally be educated by officials at the next higher level.

But they never thought that this was closely related to the lowest common people.

Not only did the common people gain little benefit from growing food, but they also incurred debts. Now it has become a problem for them to support their families.

If there are any more accidents, I'm afraid I won't be able to calm down by then.

In order to solve all these problems as soon as possible, I thought of a better way as soon as possible.

"I never expected that so many things would happen. No wonder the situation of the people has become worse and worse in the past. It turns out that they have been doing these things behind the scenes."

Zhu Yuanzhang sounded extremely angry. Although he had not visited the grassroots level, the people's lives were so miserable, and no officials from various places reported it.

Instead, all the problems were thrown out of mind.

If the people hadn't settled down as soon as possible at this moment, I really don't know how much trouble they would have encountered.

Zhu Yuanzhang's anger was seen by Zhu Han.

But it's not that simple to continue to settle all these things now. Zhu Han looked at Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Brother, as long as we arrange these things as soon as possible, we should be able to have a chance."

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard Zhu Han's words, his eyes lit up.

He knew from beginning to end that the current problems among the people would not be that simple. If they could gain a foothold in the government as soon as possible at this moment.

The problems of the people must be solved.

Officials in various places must not allow them any chance when making arrangements.

"I hear what you mean, there must be a solution."

Zhu Han nodded quickly. He knew better than anyone else.

The position we are in now has become like this, and the weak cannot make clear arrangements.

The common people may not be able to survive. Since something like this has happened, they, as officials, must investigate more carefully.

"The land is most likely due to insufficient water sources. Datong Prefecture encountered the same situation before, so He Fengyu was asked to find water sources and then solve the urgent needs of the people."

"We are secretly investigating who has been doing such vicious things."

"The people have become like this. Someone must have done something secretly. Otherwise, this problem would never have occurred."

Zhu Han and Zhu Yuanzhang had already conducted an investigation on the fields when they made secret visits.

I also found some minor flaws in it.

If we can solve these problems one by one, we will definitely be able to solve the current problems in a short time.

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded repeatedly when he heard Zhu Han's words. He couldn't wait to ask Zhu Han to solve the problem in front of him as soon as possible.

He Fengyu secretly sent people to search for water sources everywhere, hoping to solve the problem of poor land.

What they didn't expect was that at the same time, an evil force quickly spread in Shangyuan County.

Suddenly, rumors quickly began to spread in Uehara County, and the people began to panic.

"Now I heard that many accidents will happen, especially in the past, many people would naturally have problems. Our Shangyuan County will soon be cursed."

"I don't know what's going on, but I heard that the curse is very serious. I'm afraid we will all die in the future."

"Now that the land can no longer grow food, won't we be targeted all the time in the future?"

Food is now in a big situation, if there are any problems in this.

Naturally, there will be no more insidious and vicious moves.

However, this rumor quickly began to spread among the people, shocking many people.

Zhu Han was in the teahouse, inquiring about folk news, and as expected he heard these rumors.

Zhu Han frowned, and He Fengyu beside him could no longer bear it.

"Master, who is it that would spread such rumors? Doesn't this mean that he wants to sacrifice his official position to be unkind and unjust."

"There is a problem with the people's land. Naturally, we need to investigate and find out the truth as soon as possible, instead of putting this shit basin on our heads."

Zhu Yuanzhang on the side was also a little surprised that such rumors would suddenly appear.

There seems to be a strong relationship with the previous land, but now once the land is left deserted, a large number of people will start to contract it.

This was obviously done on purpose.

"We have to think of countermeasures as soon as possible and we must not let anyone take advantage of this loophole."

Zhu Han had secretly made up his mind. Now that he had reached this point, no one would hinder his plan, so he started making preparations without hesitation.

But what Zhu Han didn't expect was that this rumor seemed to start spreading throughout Shangyuan County.

Even a three-year-old child has begun to panic on the streets.

If the fields cannot grow crops, the people in Shangyuan County will starve to death.

After some investigation and visits, when he returned to the county government office, Zhu Han decided that this matter must be resolved as soon as possible, and the people could not continue to panic like this.

Otherwise, even if they try to solve this dilemma in the future, they may be in vain.

Zhu Han and Zhu Yuanzhang began to think of ways, and now they are under no less pressure than anyone else.

In the room, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Han with complicated eyes.
