Du Xin was dragged back and knelt on the ground trembling.
Before he was beaten, he had guessed and recalled that His Majesty was not wearing the clothes he wore when they met before.
"The potash fertilizer made from the stones of Shi Laoliu's family is better than that of other places. I am guilty!" Du Xin was honest and did not mention economic development anymore.
Li Longji glared at him and turned to Shi Laoliu: "Shi Laoliu, what do you want?"
"I want 20% of the money earned from potash fertilizer. I will dig more in the future and give me the money for the stones." Shi Laoliu stood there and made a request.
"Only such a small amount of money?" Li Longji smiled, and it seemed that Shi Laoliu was not greedy.
"No, it's not a small amount. They need to mine stones, crush them, and burn them. It costs a lot of money to build a kiln. There are more stones of the same kind elsewhere."
Shi Laoliu analyzed that his family only had stones and he could not burn them himself.
"Well!" Li Longji nodded: "Is life at home good?"
"Good, Du Mingfu reads the newspaper every day. As long as there is a way to make money, Mingfu will find someone to spread it everywhere..." Shi Laoliu praised Du Xin.
When Du Xin was the county magistrate, he used the newspaper method to govern the county.
The entire county's agricultural tools were greatly updated, and there were many vegetable greenhouses. He also personally sent people to Chang'an to get test papers.
Burn ceramic utensils, build cement plants, store ice in rivers in winter, take advantage of the county's water conservancy advantages, increase water networks by yourself, and imitate ships.
Hatching ducklings, gooselings, and chickens, chickens are raised on the mountain, and ducks and geese are put into the water.
According to the Salvia miltiorrhiza planting technology written in the newspaper, the people were asked to plant it early this year, and a lot of Salvia miltiorrhiza was harvested and transported to Chang'an to sell to pharmacies.
There is a pig farm in the county that has just been built. It is not suitable to collect piglets in winter. The price is high, so wait until next year.
In addition, there is a large papermaking workshop in the county, and the stones needed for papermaking are also as many in the county.
Most of the paper produced was sent to Henan Prefecture and Jingzhao Prefecture for sale, and a small amount was distributed free of charge to children and students in the county.
He had his own ink-making workshop, and the ink produced was also provided free of charge to people in the county.
The income of the people tripled, and a large group of people were preparing to build new houses after the spring thaw.
Du Xin's relatives earned more, and he studied the content of the newspaper all day, chose the best food and drink, and even had a membership card for Tianshang Renjian, someone else's name.
"Ha!" Li Longji once again looked at his good county magistrate with mixed feelings.
Just now he was going to hang Du Xin, and Du Xin's family would all be exiled.
Now it's difficult, you...
Du Xin was still shaking as he knelt there, and beads of sweat flowed down his face.
He was familiar with the laws and knew what crime he was guilty of stealing other people's things, and he knew the consequences of offending His Majesty even more.
"Go find people from other counties, from all walks of life." Li Longji wanted to verify, and said to Du Xin, "You continue to kneel."
"Yes, Your Majesty... After all, I am guilty." Du Xin's voice trembled, and he gasped hard, but he was relieved.
I am not afraid of kneeling, kneeling is a punishment. Your Majesty can punish, which means there is a way to survive.
"Brother Yi, tell me about the local situation." Li Longji sat on a chair brought by others, with a hand warmer in his hand.
The temperature in Luonan is not too low. It is now minus seven or eight degrees, and it is because of the light snow.
"Luonan County has very high reserves of potassium feldspar, and there are also stones containing barium.
Affected by the developed water system, the silt and water are rich in trace elements needed for the growth of many plants.
Everything grows well, especially some medicinal herbs, such as Salvia miltiorrhiza, Acorus calamus, and Forsythia suspensa.
The raw materials for pine ink used in ink making are more abundant...
The walnuts in the county are delicious, so Shi Laoliu's family should grow walnuts, right?"
Li Yi provided information about the county's resources, including minerals, water conservancy, and medicinal herbs...
"Master Li, you are amazing. My family grows walnuts." Shi Laoliu looked curious, how do you know I grow walnuts?
"Master Li, there are many mountain roads, but they are difficult to walk on. Is it better to build roads with cement or with local stones?"
Du Xin, who was kneeling on the ground, listened attentively and asked a question.
"Stone roads come first. Cement burns a lot of coal. The places with coal in the county are not open-air. Wells need to be dug, and coal mining is difficult." Li Yi thought for a few seconds and gave an answer.
"Master Li, we dig wells. We are not afraid of the hard work. Now we transport coal from other places, and some people carry it in backpacks.
With the strength and time to carry, what's the big deal about digging a well?
There are many stones that can be burned in the county. Even if we don't burn cement to build roads, we have less potash fertilizer. We can sell the potash fertilizer and continue to build roads with the money, or even hire people from other places to build roads.
Luonan needs roads. Luonan is surrounded by mountains and small roads cannot be used by large vehicles. Otherwise, I would not think of using ships for transportation."
Du Xin became more and more excited as he spoke. He was ready to get the location of the coal mine and start working.
As he said this, he looked up and saw Li Longji, and suddenly froze.
I forgot that I was still waiting for the punishment.
"That's right. I'll get you a map later and tell you the location and depth. There are gold mines in the county. You are not allowed to dig and it will not be marked for you."
Li Yi agreed. Yes, with such people in Luonan County, he saved a lot of worries. Du Xin is indeed working hard to develop the county's economy and improve people's lives.
"Ah?" Du Xin opened his mouth wide. He didn't look at Li Yi, but at Li Longji.
Meaning: Your Majesty, Li Dongzhu said that if I don’t mark the gold mine for me, can I still be the county magistrate? What do you mean?
“Brother Yi, the money his family and relatives made…”
Li Longji didn’t care whether to kill a person or not. He thought it would be beneficial, and the people of Du Xin’s family would benefit more.
"I will ask them to donate their things later, leaving only enough for living." Du Xin promised excitedly.
"That's not necessary. Just pay taxes. All factories in Luonan must pay taxes. Then see if there are any other problems. If there are any, impose a heavy fine.
For example, which relative was involved in the matter of Shi Laoliu's family? Confiscate half of the family property. The brother of the concubine?"
Li Yi understood that he had to let others see if he didn't punish him.
"Okay, okay, 80% of the family property is fine, and then beat me with a stick." Du Xin took the initiative to raise the punishment standard.
After a beating and two or three months of care, the matter was over.
"Within ten years, anyone who has a relationship with you will not be allowed to expand their business, and you will not be promoted.
Unless you can increase the overall income of the people in Shangluo tenfold, starting from the current income, and the people with the lowest income will reach the level of ordinary families in Jingzhao Prefecture.
Now the average family in Jingzhao Prefecture earns 25 coins per person per day. If you have done both, the ten-year limit can be lifted."
Li Yi was unwilling to replace Du Xin. This man can make money, enjoy himself, and bring his family to make money, and the people also care about him.
If he is not a county magistrate, but a big businessman, the court must commend him.
Kill Du Xin, or get rid of him, and the lives of the people in Luonan will become worse.
The people will never be happy because Du Xin made money and was punished. They will hate him.
They may even say that he made money, so he made money. Shi Laoliu suffered a loss. At most, we will compensate Shi Laoliu. What does it have to do with you, Li Dongzhu?
"Shi Laoliu, do you think we should kill Du Xin or exile him?" Li Yi asked the victim for his opinion.
"No, I just want them to stop digging my mine and give me money. Du Mingfu also helps me sell walnuts."
Shi Laoliu shook his head vigorously. He just realized that something big was going to happen.
