Zheng Xianling took a breath, another breath, and another deep breath.

"What does this mean? Our county is smaller than other counties, but it is not so much less than relief food and disaster relief silver. Lord Xu, as a parent official, you have to treat everyone equally. ”

Lord Xu, who was sitting at the top, was a man who looked at thirty Xu, and when he saw him say this, he was not angry, he only waved his hand to make everyone retreat, and when he saw that the door was closed, he suddenly scattered his official authority, lifted Erlang's legs, and stroked the traces on his official robe.

"The junior brother has good skills, didn't he suppress the price of grain a year ago, and let the rich donate silver? When the people are suffering, it is natural that which side should be urgent first. Senior brother, I'm not going to give you a grain of this grain. Other trivial matters, how can the junior look at them and solve them with a wave of his hand. Let's not occupy the resources of the imperial court. ”

"I thank you for looking up at me." Zheng Xian ordered to grind his teeth: "Is there someone who has entered the slander, this is because I am afraid that I will be idle." ”

Master Xu laughed: "The junior knows what to do?" Come, look, I have brought you the court's commendation. Why don't you treat me to a good meal and thank me? ”

Zheng Xianling scolded the stinky old man in his heart, but said with a smile on his face: "Please naturally please, but I donated a few taels of silver, you can pay for this meal first." ”

"Hahaha, as a parent, it's still so stingy and doesn't suffer. Yes, I've brought you all the things, and I won't eat the food if you invite me to eat. I've got to go somewhere else. ”

After speaking, Lord Xu stood up, but sighed: "Alas, give people a long memory." ”

Zheng County ordered a facelift: "This is... Going to Linxian? ”

Lord Xu nodded and did not speak.

Zheng County ordered Yan to smack his face, bent down slightly, and sent him out.

Until people couldn't see it, the little guy came over and looked: "Childe, Lord Xu is leaving?" I just went to the kitchen and ordered the banquet to be tidied up. ”

Zheng Xianling suddenly jumped to his feet: "What about when your son-in-law has a lot of money?" Hurry up and ask someone to stop, or you'll have to make up for it out of your own pocket. ”

"Huh? Ah, I'll go. ”

After the little guy ran away, Zheng Xianling muttered to himself: "I'm really a good person." ”

The county government of Weixian County announced the date of the distribution of grain seeds, and posted bulletin boards at the city gates, and at that time, the village chiefs of the lower villages brought the booklets of people and acres of land, and came to receive them one by one.

I don't dare to send it now, because I am afraid that some families will not be able to stand the hunger, so they will take grain to satisfy their hunger. Zheng County ordered to count the silver and grain in his hand with his fingers, and began post-disaster reconstruction.

The next day, news came from several neighboring counties. The grain merchant who had inflated the price of grain was punished on the spot by the governor with the holy order. Those who committed lesser crimes were only beaten and fined, and those who raised the price were killed on the spot and their property confiscated. As soon as the real gold and silver jewelry was lifted out, it dazzled people's eyes. It's just that interests are at the forefront, and few timid grain merchants can resist the temptation, and eight out of ten grain merchants have been cut, and all of them have been in vain a year ago.

Zheng Xian Ling was so angry that he smashed the table in the study, since there was confiscation, can't he give more silver to Wei County? Stinky old man, just pull me back.

Several officials who colluded with grain merchants were also cut down, and their families were also unlucky and sold. There are also those who are demoted, those who are demoted, and those who are pressed to the border are pressed to the border.

The purging and rectification swept the entire Langzhou, and the imperial court moved quite big. Don't blame the emperor for being angry. The army won a great victory against the barbarians, the army and the people celebrated with hundreds of officials, and he got a little prince on the New Year's Day, everything went smoothly, and he felt that his generation of Ming Jun was favored by God, and he was slapped in the face after a few days of fun.

There was an accident in the hometown of the prefect of Langzhou, and it happened that he hurriedly got on the fold and rushed back before the heavy snowfall. Since ancient times, there have been regulations that officials are not allowed to serve in their hometowns. The prefect's hometown is still far from the southeast. Confessed to the deputy, and took his wife and children home to see the sick old lady.

Who would have thought that God would rush him away and then it would snow one after another?

The deputy saw that the boss was gone, and the one who was happy, no one was restrained and suppressed, and the ambition and greed Angers raised his head. It was snowing heavily, and before he could decide whether to report to the court for help and warning, a big grain merchant came to the door. What do you think? A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, let's do a big job together. You only help to hide it from the top, and then you will share half of the money.

If you are tempted, you will never recover.

The first to be beheaded was the deputy, and the family members also rushed to become official slaves.

The emperor hated it, and he was despised by a certain hated old man again, not only lost the appointment of the chief examiner of the imperial examination next year, but more importantly, he was embarrassed! I especially have to thank him for going to the household department to communicate, otherwise how could the imperial court be so timely and effective in rescuing?

The surname Zheng Xiaozi is not a good one, you are a subordinate of the emperor, don't say that you can't hand the emperor a secret fold, and you are blind to the good things that you used to reward.

No matter how angry the emperor was, Zheng Xianling was surrounded by the grain merchants who came to the door to thank him.

One by one, they were sweating profusely: "Thank you Lord Zheng for saving my life." ”

Langzhou is stormy, only Wei County is calm, and no grain merchant is unlucky.

Master Zheng smiled dely: "As long as everyone abides by the law." ”

Hua Changnian also went to the village chief's house to receive the grain, and in his words, the court must have issued the best.

The family also has no opinion.

The weather warmed up and began to thaw, and the earth appeared dots of green and quickly joined together. The news that Grandpa Wan and Grandma Wan had moved to his daughter's house also spread throughout the village, and Old Man Hua actually came to find it.

Although he didn't say it explicitly, he disliked Hua Changnian and raised his mother-in-law who had a son, which was pinched by the Wan family and embarrassed the Hua family.

Hua Changnian said yes, hmm, ahhhh

Hua Yun and Hua Lei conspired for a few days, and Hua Lei secretly went to the village chief's house, and when he came back, he brought someone from the county government with him.

Measure the land.

Hua Changnian was dumbfounded: "Buy land again?" Why didn't you tell me in advance? ”

Hua Lei pretended to be confused: "I just asked, how did I know that people would follow." Oh, I met Master Zheng, and before I could make it clear, I asked someone to measure it, and said that I could ask for less silver. ”

Hua Changnian didn't believe it: "When my father doesn't know, didn't he tell the village chief to go to the county government to find someone?" ”

Hua Lei glanced at the village chief and said, "Yes, that's usually the case, but this time, the village chief was a little undecided and took me to ask." ”

Hua Changnian had a big head: "There are still ideas that the village chief can't decide?" Turning to the village chief, he asked embarrassedly: "Village chief, is my bear child going to mess with you?" ”

The village chief waved his hand again and again: "It's not a big deal, it's just that the land Lei Zi said has a river section, and I have to ask to make up my mind." ”

Hua Changnian's face turned pale, and he scolded Hua Lei: "You have rowed the river in?" You bear child, give me an honest explanation, what are you calculating? ”

The village chief couldn't help but look sideways, this father really doesn't know anything.

Hua Lei hesitated: "It's not that big, it's just to expand our yard to the north and south, isn't it just that the Qingshui River passes there." ”

The village chief stumbled, or did the river get in your way?

Originally, Hua Lei came to buy land, except for being surprised, the village chief didn't have any other feelings, and he just sighed that people were having a good life. But as soon as he heard the plot of land he had drawn, the village chief was displeased. Without him, it is precisely because of the clear water river that flows through the village.

The Qingshui River flows out of the mountains, and the first village it flows through is Wuru Village, which passes through several villages in the southeast and west of the village, turns a corner, and flows south. Hua Changnian's house is in the easternmost part, and the section that Hua Lei wants is the upper reaches of the river in the village, so the village chief hesitated. In case the future Hua Changnian home control zhì water... The village is all irrigated by the Qingshui River, as well as daily use such as draught and laundry. If it is a drought year, Hua Changnian's family uses more water, and the people in the village can only use it less, which is not easy to theorize.

The village chief said that he couldn't be the master, Hua Lei rolled his eyes, and said, I am free today, so I can go directly to the county government to ask.

The village chief knew that he was in a hurry, so he took him with him. Coincidentally, when I arrived at the gate of the county office, I met Zheng County Ling coming back from outside, and I saw Hua Lei at a glance. He has been in contact with Chong Wanli, and knows that the crossbow bow given by Hua Yun has made a great contribution, so naturally he is even a little close to him and Yan Yuese. And he asked him what was the matter.

Hua Lei was not timid, he only talked about his family's purchase of land, and also focused on mentioning the section of the river, and even assured the village chief in front of people that his family would definitely protect the river and not trample the water after buying it.

Zheng Xianling immediately laughed, this kid knew how to take advantage of the situation and wronged him in the village. Without much thought, he ordered the people to follow and measure the ground.

The village chief only dared to straighten up and raise his head after Zheng County's order left, and inhaled cool air again and again, it turned out that Hua Changnian's family really climbed with his parents. In the future, you will have to pay attention to the distance and distance.

In this way, they didn't have to enter the county office, so the two of them came back with the people from the yamen.

After listening to Hua Changnian, he taught him: "Why did you still work Lord Zheng?" ”

"It's just a coincidence. Dad, let's go measure the ground. ”

Hua Changnian can't think about it, this is all in front of his parents, wouldn't it be a deception to adults if he didn't buy it?

"Call your eldest sister."

Don't think that he can't think of it, without Hua Yun behind him, this kid dares to make such a big move by himself?

Eventually, it expanded from the original territory to the north and south, and the north was only ten zhang away from the road to the county seat. The south side stretches out so far across the river that two steps further to the foot of the mountain.

Grandpa Wan also went to see it, only to find that one was bigger, bigger than the entire village. Think of planting wheat all in it, and when the autumn harvest comes, the wind blows, like the surface of the water, wave after wave, it's really cola.

My uncle's family really got up, and he became a landlord.

Hua Changnian could say anything, and at night, he sighed: "Do it, you know that you can't keep the silver in your hand." (To be continued.) )
