Chapter 1004: Nothing Will Be Lacking For You

The people from the Ministry of Revenue, having been mocked by Yishang like this, suddenly remembered that Yishang's fief, which was specifically designated by Baifeng to be developed directly and handed over to the people of the Suiren clan, did not require the two of them to go and create preferential policies to attract people, because this was considered mandatory; the policies still had to be handled by departments like theirs, and it was also from this that the matter of developing the fiefs of these people was brought up.

"Yishang, consider yourself lucky; we'll work for you."

Yishang laughed heartily, which counted as revenge for being laughed at for not understanding the policies and not seeing the situation clearly.

Everyone poured out of Sanxin's office together, then left, each lost in their own thoughts; Sanxin finally obtained a moment of peace.

Zhi had entrusted someone to deliver a letter early in the morning, but it wasn't until the noon break that the letter reached Zhu's hands; Zhu opened it and took a look, but in truth, it had no meaning, as he already knew everything, and the more inside, secret news he wanted to know was not revealed at all; it seemed that his daughter marrying into the Royal Family had not brought him much convenience.

However, Zhu also came to terms with it; if she couldn't help, then she couldn't help, and he couldn't let his daughter be affected because of him; anyway, it was just these few things back and forth, nothing more than getting a little less benefit; as long as there was any bad news in the future, Zhi could notify him in advance, so he would know how to avoid it.

But how could Zhu have imagined that the land around Lema City was not the land of Lema City itself; with so many fiefs in the surrounding area, why was it his, Zhu's, fief that was chosen?

Yishang's fief could indeed be called the best choice, but the location of Zhu's fief was not necessarily the only one that could be chosen; however, it seemed that no one had noticed this situation, and Baifeng was merely giving his in-law a little benefit under reasonable circumstances.

Geng, as one of the most important Marquises in Huaxia, was absent from this small, temporarily assembled meeting, just like the two second-generation Marquises, and he did not go to Baifeng like the others to request the development of his own fief.

There was no other reason, only that Geng was relatively content; Geng's background was lowly, and when he reached adulthood, or even when he was quite old, he was still a Slave; until he made a name for himself, his age, compared to other people of the same rank in Huaxia, was about the same, but because he started his career late, he was unable to acquire that many wives.

He didn't get many wives, and he didn't marry many, plus he focused more on his work, so his family was the smallest among the group of Marquises, even smaller than most of the Counts.

But his salary was high and his benefits were good, so he didn't have that much pressure to support his family, and his children were all quite capable; they were doing well in various departments, and with a father like him, even if they were farmers, they could be good farmers, and this was in the practical sense of being a good farmer, not the kind selected through an evaluation.

Every one of Geng's children had to farm, from a young age, regardless of whether they were male or female, so even if they didn't work in the Ministry of Agriculture, they all knew how to farm; and those who didn't enter the Ministry of Agriculture but just became ordinary farmers were likewise skilled in crops, knew how to select seeds, understood the best farming techniques, and were even more willing to accept new things.

Moreover, in terms of Huaxia, the location of Geng's fief should be considered the best, because his fief was the most suitable for planting, it just hadn't been possible to develop it until now.

Baifeng was still waiting to see if Geng would come to find him, and then give him the policies for his fief; Baifeng was absolutely willing, and he also wanted to see if, under Geng's leadership, his fief would have a Harvest every year.

However, Baifeng would likely wait in vain, because Geng was always so easily satisfied; if you don't give, then I won't come to ask, but by the time Baifeng reached the end of his workday in the afternoon, he was met by a group of Marquises rubbing their hands together; he looked closely and saw that Juxiang was actually among them, though he was a bit reserved.

Baifeng felt helpless, not knowing which bastard had dragged Juxiang over; with Juxiang's head, how could he possibly think of coming to find him?

Thus, Baifeng ignored the others and spoke directly to Juxiang: "Come, Juxiang, come in and talk."

Juxiang hesitated for a moment, then followed Baifeng inside; when the others saw this, their hearts tightened instantly; had they been too clever by half? They shouldn't have called Juxiang over; they were afraid the King had misunderstood, thinking they had dragged Juxiang over to resist the pressure.

The various Nobles looked at each other, and their complexions were not very good.

Baifeng pulled Juxiang, who was almost as sturdy as himself, into his small office; the door was not closed, and he let Juxiang sit down; Juxiang was very reserved, but he did whatever Baifeng said.

"Come, Juxiang, tell your uncle, what did they call you here for?"

Juxiang was a bit nervous, not knowing where to put his hands, his eyes constantly looking at the desktop: "They, the uncles called me here, saying they wanted to find you to see if you could develop our fiefs; they said they couldn't leave me out, so I came; I don't really know what it's about either."

"Juxiang, don't be afraid; from now on, just ignore them; rest assured, no matter what it is, your uncle will save a share for you; you don't need to worry about these things yourself.

What they are talking about is the matter of fief development; it's the fief I gave your family; you didn't attend the meeting yesterday so you don't know; you don't need to worry about anything; I will put your family's fief in the front to be developed, I just haven't found a suitable opportunity yet.

Also, that large fief in the west cannot be developed right now; no one's can be developed; when there is an opportunity, I will switch you to a more suitable place; you don't need to worry about anything; now your younger brother Wuzhong is also at the Western Development Group; when he achieves merit, I will reward him with Nobility and a fief again; you don't need to worry about anything, just ignore it."

Juxiang hurriedly thanked Baifeng; Baifeng looked at this slow, honest child and still felt some guilt in his heart; anyway, as long as he was around for one day, everything in his family would not be lacking, and Yulong would also have to treat their family well.

"Alright, good child, go home after work; don't follow this group of old men around."

Juxiang stood up, bowed, and said to Baifeng: "Alright, Uncle, then I will go first."

"Go, go, go home early; when you have time, bring your son over to play too; I haven't seen him many times yet; it would be good for him to keep Qihu company in the future."

Juxiang stood by the side of the door and said yes repeatedly, but seeing that Baifeng also intended to go out, he did not leave first, but prepared to wait for Baifeng to go out before he did; he could not go out before Baifeng.

Baifeng was also moved; except for not being that smart, Juxiang was an incredibly good child in every aspect.
