Beibei roams the magical starry world

Chapter 407 County Magistrate Wang Jin

In the middle of the night, everyone returned to the county town, and Princess Isa stayed in an inn arranged by Captain Zhang.

Nothing happened that night. Early the next morning, Captain Zhang and a few of his men came to the inn where Princess Isa was staying.

After a round of greetings, Captain Zhang took Princess Isa to a roadside stall for breakfast.

Afterwards, Captain Zhang accompanied Princess Isa to the county government office. At this time, a middle-aged man was sitting above the county government office. He wore a county magistrate's hat and official uniform, with a calm expression on his face, looking down at the people coming from outside.

"Greetings, sir. Young Master Wang is here to invite you." After entering the hall, Captain Zhang clasped his fists and reported to the county magistrate.

"Okay, thank you for your hard work." The county magistrate said politely and looked at Princess Isa.

Princess Isa realized that the county master was looking at her, so she clasped her fists and said, "Student Wang Yi greets the county master."

Princess Isa changed her last name to her first name. When the county magistrate heard Princess Isa's application, he nodded slightly and said, "Wang Yi, do you have any experience in this study tour?"

The county magistrate did not ask about Princess Isa's birth background, but directly asked about her experience studying abroad.

Princess Isa was slightly stunned, and quickly replied: "Except for the area under the jurisdiction of the county lord, many other areas are infested with bandits and the people are displaced, which makes students worried and unable to sleep!"

The county magistrate nodded and asked, "Everyone has seen this situation. Some people turned a blind eye, some cried and denounced, some took advantage of the situation to gain profit, and some took advantage of the situation to rebel. Does Wang Yi have any good plan?"

Princess Isa thought to herself, "This county magistrate sent someone to chase me all the way and invite me back, could it be that he wanted to talk to me about real matters?"

Princess Isa thought about the county magistrate's question and said, "I want to gather my classmates and report what I have seen and heard to the king after I return."

The county magistrate nodded and said, "Some time ago, Princess Isa went to the palace gate every day to ask to see the king, but she was not allowed to see him. How can you see the king?"

Princess Isa also agreed with the county magistrate's opinion, but now that she was disguised as a man and became a student studying abroad, she still had to continue to cope with it!

Princess Isa said, "In addition to reporting to the king, we will also deliver the report to the officials in the court and the people in the capital. By using the public opinion in the capital, I believe our report will definitely reach the king's ears."

The county magistrate smiled and said, "Wang Yi, go back to the hotel and rest first, and come to my inner hall to have a drink at noon."

"Thank you, County Master." Princess Isa clasped her fists to express her gratitude, then turned and left the county government hall.

After watching Princess Isa leave, the county magistrate looked around and said, "Is there anything I need to deal with?"

After that, the county magistrate was busy dealing with the affairs of the entire county.

At noon, the lawyer accompanied the county magistrate into the inner hall and asked, "Master, why don't you check Wang Yi's background?"

The county magistrate shook his head and said, "No need to inquire."

The master asked puzzledly: "Why is this?"

"If so, what can I do? If not, why should I do it? Besides, the people I kill are not good people." County magistrate Wang Jin said, putting his hands behind his back and walking forward swayingly.

After reciting it silently several times in his heart, the master sighed slightly and followed.

At noon, Princess Isa came to the county magistrate's inner hall. Eight dishes and two pots of wine were already placed on the table.

Princess Isa, accompanied by the county magistrate Wang Jin and the legal advisor, took her seats according to the host and guest.

The lawyer poured wine for the county lord and Princess Isa. After filling his own glass, the county lord raised his glass and said, "Now there is no distinction between officials here. Let's talk freely as friends regardless of age. Let's have a drink first."

After saying this, the county magistrate drank the wine in one gulp, and Princess Isa and the lawyer followed suit and drank up the wine in their glasses.

"Come and have some food, and try the special dishes of our county." County Magistrate Wang Jin invited them.

The lawyer refilled everyone's glasses. Princess Isa raised her glass to the county magistrate and the lawyer and said, "I am extremely honored. I toast to you two adults."

"Haha! Don't be so restrained. There are no adults around now. Let's have a toast." County magistrate Wang Jin said generously and drank a glass.

The county magistrate saw that Princess Isa and the lawyer were not talking, so he started telling his own experiences.

It turned out that the county magistrate Wang Jin was born in a small village in Shenzhu Country. Since he could remember, when he was five years old, Wang Jin discovered that he had no parents and was raised by his grandfather.

In the face of constant questioning, grandpa always responded perfunctorily.

It was not until Wang Jin was ten years old that he learned from a friend from the same village that Wang Jin's parents encountered a landslide while farming and were buried under the mud and rocks.

When Wang Jin learned about this, he was devastated. As he grew older, he began to learn to read and write, but what Wang Jin was most interested in was farming, especially the transformation of mountain terraces.

As Wang Jin's research on farming becomes more and more in-depth, his reputation in farming becomes more and more famous.

Since the king of the Shenzhu Nation was committed to expanding the territory, there were constant wars around him, and waging wars required food security.

Therefore, as an agricultural expert, Wang Jin was appointed by the monarch as the county magistrate of a large agricultural county.

With Wang Jin's hard work day and night, the large agricultural county has become a strong agricultural county.

In addition to ensuring the needs of the army every year, other crops also have a good harvest every year. The people live and work in peace and contentment, and the army has more abundant food.

However, recently the king has been addicted to beauty and neglected state affairs. Officials across the country have been levying heavy taxes and the people are living in misery.

The county magistrate Wang Jin was deeply worried and sighed every day. He did not implement any policies of forced taxation and extortion, so the people within the county could still have enough food to eat.

At this point, County Master Wang Jin looked at Princess Isa and said meaningfully: "Now that the king is missing, I hope Princess Isa can turn the tide!"

When Princess Isa heard this, her mind went “boom”, “Does he know who I am?”

After a moment, Princess Isa nodded and responded, "Yes! Yes!"

Afterwards, the three of them chatted about the local customs and practices in various places.

In the evening, County Magistrate Wang Jin and the lawyer escorted Princess Isa out of the county government office. Princess Isa clasped her fists and said, "Thank you both for your hospitality. I will be leaving this county tomorrow, so I will not say goodbye to you both. I will say goodbye now and see you again another day."

The county magistrate and the legal advisor also had rosy faces, smiled, and clasped their fists to wish the study tour a smooth journey.
