Wu Chenzi looked at Wang Zeng of Wei and then looked at the people of Xinzheng. To be honest, he had helped Xiao He and Cao Shen set tax rates and policies again, but he never visited the public again.

Therefore, he didn't know what the situation was about the Xinzheng Incident and the people's livelihood.

"Would you like to visit the three elders with me?" Wu Chenzi looked at King Wei and asked.

"Three Elders?" Wang Zeng of Wei was a little confused. What is this?

"The three elders are the efforts of the King of Qin. "Shangshu Hong Fan": "Three virtues, one is integrity, which can correct people's straightness. The second is hardness, which can establish affairs. The third is softness, which can control things. The third is softness, which can govern them." Therefore, the King of Qin established three elders in various townships within the Qin State, exempting corvee, taxes, and military service. He has the right to be the chief of political affairs. He has the right to be the superiors of the townships and counties. If there is a law to implement it, he must first consult the three elders, and only after being recognized by the three elders can it be implemented!" Cao Shen explained on the side.

"Isn't this a combination of the CPPCC and the National People's Congress?" Wu Chenzi said in surprise.

He always thought that the three elders were just three elderly people over fifty years old. After all, Confucianism said that they were established at thirty years old, and they were not confused at forty years old, and they knew the destiny of heaven. In ancient times, they attached great importance to the destiny of heaven, believing that political affairs were in line with the way of heaven, so people who knew the destiny of heaven needed to learn about it.

But I didn't expect that the three elders were like this, and these three elders were also the ones in the village who could help the government command the villagers.

"So that's what I want!" King Zeng of Wei nodded, looked at Wuchen and said.

He was also curious about the changes in Xinzheng, and even thought of visiting the people to see what made Xinzheng change so much. Now that Wu Chenzi invites him, he is happy to go there.

"There can't be many people, Master Zhicheng, let's go with me and Wang Mian of Wei!" Wu Chenzi looked at everyone and said.

Although it was in Xinzheng, we still had to ensure the safety of King Zeng of Wei. Who knows if there would be other dangers?

"I have visited all the townships and counties in Yingchuan, so the three elders all know me, so I will not participate in this trip!" Cao Shen said seriously.

He and Xiao He ruled Yingchuan County and traveled all over Korea. Almost all townships and counties have his footprints. Once he goes down, everyone will know him. It will inevitably attract the attention of villagers and expose the whereabouts of King Zeng of Wei, so he cannot appear.

"As the garrison of a county, I visited all the towns and counties, Lord Cao, a wise minister of ancient times!" Wang Zeng of Wei looked at Cao Shen and praised in surprise.

"The National Master said that if you have your salary and salary, the people will be rich, the people will be rich, and the people will be abused, and God will be able to deceive you. Lord Xiao He also agrees deeply, so all officials must remember it when carving stones in Yingchuan County Magistrate's Office!" Cao Shen said seriously.

King Zeng of Wei nodded and looked at Wu Chenzi. Why is such a talent not from Wei, who can govern politics and command troops, is simply the best choice for the prime minister.

Although Lian Po was the prime minister of Wei, Lian Po's ability was more about governing the army, and he was simply a mess in governing the government.

"Change in your regular clothes and visit the countryside!" Wu Chenzi said, touching his nose.

Half an hour later, Wu Chenzi changed into brocade clothes and stood outside the Xinzheng Palace and waited for Wei Wang Zeng and others.

"Sir..." King Zeng of Wei and Zhicheng were stunned. They thought that they were dressed in the countryside, just changing into coarse linen clothes like the people. As a result, you were even more excessive than before, and they actually changed into brocade clothes.

"The king hasn't gone to the countryside, right?" Wu Chenzi also asked in a daze.

"When I was in Daliang, I occasionally went to the countryside." said Wang Zeng of Wei.

Wu Chenzi shook his head and said, "The king thought that if you were the three elders, you would go and tell the changes to an ordinary man?"

Wang Zeng of Wei thought about it, then shook his head. Who would have nothing to do to discuss the government affairs with an ordinary person? That would cause trouble.

After all, almost all kings of all countries are very strict in preventing the public from commenting on political affairs at will. If serious cases are found to spread rumors, they will be punished.

"The brocade clothes mean that we may be an official in the court, but we do not go to the countryside as an official, but visit, so the people can also speak freely without guilt!" Wu Chenzi said.

Zhicheng was stunned, and then asked curiously: "What's the difference?"

"Mr. I don't know anything about the government going to the countryside, which means that it represents the government, state affairs, and every word and deed of the people in the countryside is recorded by the censors, and they are responsible for their own words and deeds. The brocade represents the individual. The officials and counties go to the countryside to visit the government and the people can speak freely without guilt!" Cao Shen explained.

Although the person is still the same person and the official is still the same, it represents the difference between an individual and an official.

"I've been taught!" Zhicheng bowed and bowed to Cao Shen and said.

So the two returned to the palace again and changed into brocade clothes, followed Wu Chenzi and others to drive towards the towns and counties outside Xinzheng.

"Hurry, a man came down to visit privately!" In the small village outside Jinghu, a villager saw Wu Chenzi and others' carriage, and immediately understood that an adult from the government came down to visit, and immediately sent someone to the village to notify the three elders.

"See sir!" A group of villagers watched Wu Chenzi and others ride by horses, but did not avoid it, but gathered together, greeting each other with a smile on the side of the road.

"I've seen you all!" Wu Chenzi also turned over and dismounted and bowed with a smile.

Seeing Wu Chenzi dismounting, Wei Wang Zeng and others also dismounted.

"Dare you ask where sir?" A man in his thirties looked at Wu Chenzi and others and asked.

"Xianyang!" Wu Chenzi said with a smile.

The big man was shocked and immediately said, "Sir, please do not punish the county master. The county master is the best county master we have ever seen, and there is no harm to the people."

Wu Chenzi was also stunned, then waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, you wait. I'm not here to investigate."

Wang Zeng of Wei also nodded. Judging from the reactions of the people alone, he knew that the honor of this county is a good official who is deeply loved by the people. Otherwise, the people would not have maintained the emperor for the county when they saw officials from Xianyang.

"Are you building canals and water trucks?" Wu Chenzi asked when he saw that the people were not working in the farmland, but building canals and water trucks.

"Mr. Hui, yes, the county master personally went to the countryside to inform us. The gentlemen of the National Teachers' Office personally speculated that this year there would be a severe drought. Therefore, he ordered the Cao official of the Ministry of Works to go to various townships and counties to help us build canals and water trucks to prevent drought." The hero respectfully bowed to Xianyang and said.

"You just believe in the speculation of the National Master's Mansion?" Wu Chenzi asked curiously.

"Is it important to believe or not? The government will contribute to the construction of canals. Even if there is no disaster, it can help us improve the fields and the government will contribute to the capital. Why not do it?" said the hero with a smile.

"So that's it!" Wu Chenzi nodded.

The people are not stupid, and they will not believe that there will be severe droughts, but the construction of water conservancy is a blessing for the local area in any case, so the people are naturally willing to participate.

"Sir, don't slander the National Master's Mansion. If it weren't for the gentleman wearing brocade clothes, I would beat you up in that sentence just now!" the brave man reminded in a low voice.

"Oh? Why is this?" Wu Chenzi was even more surprised. The National Master's Mansion still has such prestige?

"Sir, you can see that Xinzheng City was destroyed and South Korea was destroyed. According to common sense, our people all became cheap people." said the hero.

Wu Chenzi nodded. When the Spring and Autumn Period battle was destroyed, the people of a country would be demoted to a low-level citizenship.

"But we don't. It was the National Master who personally ordered that our old Korean people, all the new people of Qin, would be exempted from labor service and taxes for three years, and the old Korean nobles would be removed, and all the land would be distributed to us. Later, we would be allowed to rent utensils and grains with the government for free." The strong man continued.

King Zeng of Wei looked at Wu Chenzi and was even more surprised. He was afraid that the King of Qin would not be able to do such courage. The various countries were busy fighting, so after attacking the next country and city, they almost all added all their expenses and expenses to the local people.

However, Qin did not do this, but instead exempted South Korea from three years of labor service and taxes, which was great courage.

Wu Chenzi nodded. The people may not be able to tell the true full picture of the Qingmiao Method, but they remember the real benefits they received.

"So, I don't know other counties, but in Yingchuan County, please do not have any doubts about the National Teachers' Mansion, otherwise even if you are an adult from Xianyang, it will inevitably be unpopular!" The strong man continued.

"I know!" Wu Chenzi said with a smile.

"Can the hero take me to the river for a walk?" Wu Chenzi asked as he looked at the hero.

"The river channel is muddy, I'm afraid that it will stain my robe." The strong man looked at Wu Chenzi and his party's Jinyi and said.

"It's okay!" Wu Chenzi said with a smile.

"Gentlemen, please follow me!" The strong man nodded, and agreed in his heart that this group of people was also a good official like the county magistrate, otherwise who would wear brocade clothes and go to the muddy waterway with them.

Wu Chenzi led Wei Wang Zeng and others to the canal with the heroes. It was indeed muddy everywhere, but it can be seen that these people were all attentive, and the depth and width of the river were constructed in a planned manner.

"How many water trucks have been set up in this canal, and how many have been built now?" Wu Chenzi asked, looking at the water trucks on the canal.

"I don't know this. I only know that a total of seven rivers and canals in our new village have been built, and five have been completed now." The strong man replied.

Wu Chenzi nodded and observed the length of the Xincun River Canal and the area of ​​the field. The seven water trucks were just enough. Five have been built now, and two are under construction and can be put into use before the drought comes.

"I have a doubt!" Wu Chenzi thought for a while and said.

"Sir, please ask." The strong man wiped his hands, knowing that the real question was coming, and looked at Wu Chenzi nervously.

"I came here many years ago. South Korea was still there, but what I saw at that time was that everyone was working in the farmland negatively, with a pale face and thin skin. I didn't want to ask the hero if he could answer me?" Wu Chenzi asked curiously.

The hero thought for a while before speaking: "I can't tell the great truth and great questions, but I think the reason why Xinzheng has changed like this is because of myself!"

"Because of myself?" Wu Chenzi asked in confusion as he looked at the hero.

"Yes, because when Korea was still there, our land belonged to the nobles. Not only did we pay taxes to the government, but we also had to give priority to helping the nobles cultivate their own fields so that we could have time to cultivate our own fields. There were more people without fields." The hero said, and then continued: "To be honest, before the fall of South Korea, my family was a slave to the nobles for three generations and had no fields of their own."

"What about now?" Wu Chenzi asked.

"After the Qin State established Yingchuan County, the governor of Xiao County and the governor of Cao County personally went to our township counties and found out the land of the nobles and distributed it to us. We also changed from a lowly family to a new citizen of Qin State. We allowed us to open land by ourselves. The land of land was exempted from taxes within three years, and thirty taxes within six years. We could rent oxen, utensils and grains from the government, so all our work was for ourselves!" said the hero.

"Xiao He and Cao Shen have been here?" Wu Chenzi was even more surprised. He thought that Cao Shen and Xiao He had just walked a few places, but he could not have thought that any one he came to was the one they had walked by.

"Mr. Xiao and Prince Cao have not only visited our new village, but also visited the surrounding villages. However, our new village is even more valued by the county magistrate and Prince. The county magistrate has been here three times alone." said the strong man proudly.

"Fuck, we, the county magistrate of Hancun, have been there twice!" A brave man working in the river immediately said dissatisfied.

Wu Chenzi couldn't help but smile. Even this could be compared, which proves that Xiao He and Cao Shen did a good job in Yingchuan, otherwise they would not have been missed so much by the people.

"Sir, the three elders are here!" The strong man looked at a group of people and rushed towards the river channel and said hurriedly, introducing them to everyone.

"See gentlemen!" The three old men came over to Wu Chenzi and others to salute.

"How dare you bother the old men to come!" Wu Chenzi hurriedly saluted.

"Gentlemen are nobles from Xianyang, how can they let nobles wait for a long time!" an old man said hurriedly.

"Dare you ask the three elders for their longevity?" Wu Chenzi hurriedly asked as he looked at the three old men who were not young, especially one of them was still carried.

"I am already seventy and fourteen!" The old man sitting on the bamboo caught up with the help of the young and strong man stood up and saluted.

"Sir, live a long life!" Wu Chenzi said hurriedly.

Those who can live to seventy in this era are considered auspicious people, and even if the King of Qin sees them, they must first politely.

"Dare you ask why sir is in Xianyang?" the old man looked at Wu Chenzi and asked.

"Shyly, the national teacher is in charge!" Wu Chenzi replied with a smile.

"It turns out that he is the wizard in charge of the National Master's Mansion. Bai He has met the wizard!" The old man hurriedly saluted.
To be continued...
