Behind me is the earth

"Okay, after filing the records, send all the purchased radio stations to the warehouse for storage."

Ren Pingsheng ordered.

"Okay, Mr. Ren."

After hanging up the phone, Ren Pingsheng went to Tengu to buy several smart projectors and hosts.

He planned to build a local area network for education and government affairs within the town after he completely captured Qingcheng Town.

Then buy some modern systematic basic knowledge courseware and upload it to the server, use the local area network to train and breed some talents, and build Qingcheng Town in a big way!

Even if it cannot be built into a modern state, it must slowly move closer to modernization. With developed productivity, culture, and systems, it can form a heart that radiates to all directions and become the rear area that supports him in overcoming obstacles.

The early morning sun emerged from the horizon little by little, spreading its brilliance over this beautiful but messy land.

The villagers of Renjiazhuang carried hoes and dragged their families towards the fields outside.

"Feihu, where's the patrol?"

Someone greeted Lu Feihu, who was patrolling with the militia team.

"Second uncle, we are patrolling, and we will definitely not let any living corpses get into the ground!"

Lu Feihu slapped his chest and made a loud sound.

"I have long seen that this boy is strong and strong. As expected, Captain Liu took a fancy to him and promoted him to militia captain."

Seeing Lu Feihu leading a dozen people, carrying short knives, carrying long grass, and carrying long bows, with such majestic appearance, many young people in Zhuangzi were envious!

Although the militia team has no money, they can eat big steamed buns and meaty meals every morning and noon. This kind of treatment makes people's eyes red with envy! All young people in Zhuangzi wanted to join the militia. This also made Lu Feihu very popular in Zhuangzi, and his status soared.

"Can these seeds given by Master Ren work?"

Some farmers carefully grabbed a handful of seeds from the bag and asked suspiciously.

"Master Ren is so kind, you actually doubt him!?"

The farmer's wife punched him with her hand.

The farmer rubbed his belly that was hurt by the fierce wife at home: "It's not that I doubt the master, I'm just afraid that I won't be able to grow anything like this. What will my family eat this year?"

"Master Ren has waived your rent, so what are you afraid of? And Master Ren is not the kind of person who cheats ordinary people like us, and what good does that do to Master Ren?

Even if you really can't grow any food this year, I don't think a man as good as Mr. Ren will let your family starve to death. "

In the past six months, Mr. Ren's image and reputation have become deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

This is not only because what he did was seen by the people in Zhuangzi, but also because Lao Liu and Liu Qiang deliberately promoted it in Zhuangzi.

"Bold brother, just look at these seeds. They are plump. They are good seeds at first glance. Besides, if you keep planting them, if they don't sprout after a while, you can also replant them with other seeds. Anyway, I have exempted you from rent. Okay, what else is there to be afraid of?

My family had already planted it years ago, otherwise I would have wanted to plant this seed. "

Heizi, who was not tall, pinched a corn seed.

I've never seen this kind of seed before, so I don't know what it will be. However, Hu Laosan has already learned how to grow this crop, so it shouldn't be a big problem.

When the tenants arrived at the fields, under the organization of Hu Laosan, they first widened the diversion ditch and then opened the gate to release water at noon.

Wherever the water flows, there is a lot of work. The tenants help each other, burying seeds, irrigating, and transplanting rice.

Spring comes early when people are diligent, and farming is busy at the right time.

Compared with other villages in Qingshui County where large areas of land have been abandoned, this place looks like a paradise.

Qingcheng Town, the isolation point on the west side.

Seven or eight carriages were connected together, and dozens of people gathered together, frequently attracting attention.

"Have you found someone to send the message in?"

Lao Liu asked.

"I've already found someone to send the letter in. My boss should have received it by now."

A dark-faced young man with a square head and a square face said.

"I'm finally home! Come back this time, have a good rest, buy a big house and bring your wife and children here."

When Lao Liu thought about coming back this time, he would buy a big house in the city, where his wife and children would be on the hot bed, and his mother, who had never had any happiness in her life, could enjoy her old age in the city. The corners of Lao Liu's mouth couldn't help but curl up. Isn't this what men do when they go out to fight through thorns and thorns, sleep in the open air, and fight against the wind and rain?

"Brother, when you enter the city later, I will introduce you to my employer. With your ability, my employer will definitely treat you well."

Next to Lao Liu, stood a tall white-faced man. He had a tall frame, but he didn't look like a martial artist. Instead, he had some grace about him.

"Well, please, brother Liu."

The white-faced man nodded.

It was crowded and noisy, and soon they reached the point of isolation. Everyone packed up their carriages and prepared to enter the city.

"What's wrong?"

When entering the city, they were blocked at the city gate. Lao Liu rushed to the front and asked.

"They won't let you in. You have to pay taxes to get in."

said the boy leading the horse in front.

"Do you still have to pay tax when you come in? When were the rules established? How much does it cost?"

Lao Liu asked the yamen servant at the door.

"500 taels!"

The officer said.

"500 taels??"

The sixth child was shocked.

Then, he saw more than thirty regiment trainers holding spears behind the Yamen. Although each one looked malnourished, they were staring at him eagerly.

He was keenly aware that something was wrong.

Something must have happened while I was there!

He couldn't help but feel anxious.

In the end what happened?

Something happened to the boss?

He didn't dare to imagine the worst possibility.

Not just him, everyone in the team was awakened from the excitement of just going home, and the team was a little panicked.

"We are from Renfu Qixing Trading Company."

Lao Liu said tentatively.

"The tax collected is the soap tax from your Ren family!"

The officer clapped his knife and said angrily.

"Where is our boss?"

Lao Liu's absence for more than two months almost meant that he had lost contact with Qingcheng Town. At this time, he had no idea what was happening in the city.

"Your boss, hum..."

Before the servant finished speaking, he heard the sound of horseshoes hitting the stone slabs behind him.

"Rumble..."

The sound of the horse's hooves turned from fast to slow, and after reaching the doorway, it turned into a crisp "ta-da-da" sound.

And because the man was riding on a horse, blocking the light at the door, the light in the door hole suddenly became weaker, making it difficult to see clearly for a while.

"Lao Liu."

Ren Pingsheng stood up and dismounted.

"Master!"

Lao Liu's heart suddenly relaxed, and his whole person became relaxed.

He hurriedly ran over, and Ren Pingsheng held him in his arms and gave him a hug. This made Lao Liu, who had returned from a long journey, feel very warm in his heart.

"Sihailou, the banquet has been prepared. Everyone goes to the city to drink. You will not come back until you are drunk today!"

Ren Pingsheng waved his hand and said boldly.

"Shopkeeper Ren..."

The yamen servant was a little timid, but when he saw the regiment behind him and that he was Mr. Xie's family after all, the Ren family was a businessman after all, he didn't dare to do anything to him, and he suddenly became bolder: "You... "

"beat!"

Ren Pingsheng gave him a cold glance.

Immediately, the people behind them all dismounted, picked up the short sticks in their hands and swung them towards the group of government officials and regiment training officers.

How could these underprivileged government officials and regiment drills be compared with the professional soldiers who practiced every day? Even though they were beaten less and more, they were still suppressed and beaten!

Soon, there was everything lying on the floor in the doorway.

"Master, this..."

Lao Liu was a little confused.

"It doesn't matter, let's go into town and have a drink."

Ren Pingsheng took Lao Liu's hand and walked towards the city.

We haven’t seen you for a few months, why is your boss so arrogant?
