"One month." Li Xingmao thought for a moment and said.
He actually wanted to stay longer, at least until the seeds were sown before returning.
Li Boxuan did not object, "I agree, however, allowing you to return is not for leisure. The farmlands in Zhen An Prefecture are too few, as are the schools. At that time, our family was only busy with making a living and didn't have much time to inspect these matters. When you go to Zhen An Prefecture, try to increase the farmland yield there. I'll approve a reduction of half of their land taxes."
Li Xingmao said happily, "Understood, Father."
Many people avoided farming due to heavy land taxes, or they transferred their land to scholar families or officials. They'd rather rent than farm themselves.
This led to reduced harvests from the fields.
