Chapter 355: Taking office

June is here, Li Yujin brothers should take office, although reluctant, but the emperor's order cannot be violated, not to mention that the two brothers also work hard to do a good job!

"If there is anything bad, you two must sue the family, there are so many people in our family, we have something to do together!" For the first time, the children held official positions independently, and Li Qingshan couldn't rest assured!

"Grandpa, don't worry, we often write letters to our families!" Li Yujin assured.

Although Tanggu County and Qingyuan County are not very far from Zhixi County, the distance between the two counties is not close, and the three places in Zhixi County are almost an equilateral triangle, so this time the two brothers can only travel together for most of the day, and the rest is to move forward by themselves.

The weather in June is the time of the scorching heat, the sun at noon is scorching the earth, there is no way to walk, you can only find a shady place to avoid the heat, choose the morning and the sun is about to set when to hurry.

So the trip was a lot slower, originally three or four days away, but it took seven days, fortunately the two Li Yujin brothers went out early, otherwise they would have missed the time to take office.

The original county order of Tanggu County was surnamed Jiang, and he had been here for many years, and he had not made any political achievements, but fortunately there were some relationships, and he asked people to go to the relationship, and finally found an opportunity to level down, although it was still a Bapin county order, it was finally not a place where poor birds don't.

Of course, for this unlucky guy who was assigned to Tanggu County, Jiang County Ling welcomed him very much, and finally someone came to replace him, he was finally going to leave this place where birds don't, as early as two months ago, Jiang County Ling began to prepare for the handover.

"Hello, I'm the newly appointed county magistrate, this is a clerk, I don't know if I can please inform Lord Jiang!" Under the guidance of passers-by, Li Yujin finally found the county government of Tanggu County!

As the name suggests, the house is in tatters, the color of the vermilion gate has almost dropped, mottled, as for the walls of the mansion, the bricks and tiles in some places have fallen off, and no one has repaired them, if it weren't for someone suing him, he couldn't think that this was the county government at all!

Even the officials at the door were drowsy, without a trace of energy, why? In such a poor place as Tanggu, people can't eat enough, how can they still have the heart to burn, kill and loot, not to mention that the county government is so poor, even if there is no gate, there is no need to worry that someone will come in and steal things.

As for changing the county order or something, there is no difference between them, the officials, and the people, and no one can change the fact of poverty, and they are powerless to answer!

"Okay, you wait!" After speaking, the official swayed inside, those who are weak, don't look at the errand in the county office, their life is not much better, they can barely mix up, as for the rest, don't even think about it.

I don't have anything to do all day long, I don't have the strength to do anything, just like this, this is the common idea of the yacha!

As for the Jiang County Order, I was in the back hall of the Yamen, looking through the books, these books have accompanied him for many years, from the ambition at the beginning, to now being casually assigned to a dilapidated county town, and he can't make any political achievements, and his life goes on in such a monotonous way.

Just like the gods, I heard a knock on the door outside: "Master, master, someone is looking for you!" ”

Jiang Xianling's pace was also very slow, and he put the book down and put it in a fixed position on the shelf: "Come in, what's the matter?" ”

"Master, there is a young man outside who claims to be surnamed Li, saying that he is here to take over!"

"Oh, let him in!" Although he was happy in his heart, Jiang Xian Ling didn't show how excited he was, he was so old, his pride and ambition had long been exhausted, and he only wanted to change places in his life.

I don't want to be rich and rich, I just hope that I don't just want to mix a food and clothing like here!

The official got the order, came out and invited Li Yujin to come in, and when he entered the county office, he found that what he saw was only the tip of the iceberg, and the inside of the county government was not much better than the outside, and the area occupied was not small, but it was overgrown with weeds, and it looked like no one had taken care of it for a long time.

Jiang Xian Ling didn't have any swagger, in his opinion, Li Yujin's arrival was to suffer for him, so he was quite enthusiastic: "It turns out that you are Lord Li, I have heard it a long time ago, you are really a hero out of a young man, you are young, you are so talented!" ”

"I heard that you are quite high this time, congratulations!" The young man in front of him is less than 20 years old, and he can enter high school, which shows that he has real talent and real learning.

"Where, Lord Jiang, you are too awarded, haven't I taken office yet? You are a senior, just call my name Yujin! "Anyway, Jiang Xian Ling has been in this place for many years, and he knows more about everything than him.

"Is there something I need your help with? You've been here for so many years, please give me a lot of advice! I don't know a lot of things, and I don't know much about Tanggu! ”

"Of course, of course, I must know everything, and I can ask if there is anything!" The Jiang County Order is also relatively good, and he is not ready to hide his secrets, and there is nothing that cannot be said about this broken place, basically you can know it as soon as you inquire outside.

"Then thank you Lord Jiang in advance, this is something brought from home, all of which are your own, please accept it!" This time, the Li family prepared a lot of things, and Li Yujin pulled two full carriages, some of which were prepared for the officials here.

Although he is a county magistrate, there are so many people below, and only a bare county magistrate can't do anything, and the necessary human feelings and sophistication are still necessary.

Jiang Xian Ling has been in this place for so many years, how have he seen such a good thing, when he saw such a good gift, his eyes were straight, these things he had not seen in Tanggu for so many years, fortunately, he still had some concentration, and it didn't take long to react.

"Hehe, thank you, Lord Li, if you have any questions, just ask, come, come, please sit, although I have no political achievements, but after so many years here, to be honest, no one knows the situation in Tanggu County better than me."

"Lord Li, you have come all the way, I believe you have also seen the situation in Tanggu, there are several nearby counties, there is no poorer than here, the crops that the people work hard to grow every year are not high, and they can't even eat enough, I have thought of a lot of ways, and I haven't changed the status quo here, it seems that I can only rely on you young people!"

When the gift arrived, Jiang Xian Ling was obviously a lot more enthusiastic, and he really knew everything, which helped Li Yujin a lot, otherwise, he would have to spend some time to understand the situation, one thing is very good because it is very poor here, there is no oil and water to fish, and there is very little intrigue between officials.

They know that there is no difference between the county order here and the petty officials below, they are all the same, they don't have money anyway, it is better to be a petty official, and there are not so many troubles!

"No, no, since you're here, let's go through the handover procedures, I'll introduce you to everyone, and I should go somewhere else to take office!"

Jiang Xian Ling can't wait to get out of here quickly, the place arranged for him this time is not very good, but it is not bad, he has stayed enough in this poor place.

"Okay, then thank you Lord Jiang!" Li Yujin also wants to enter the state quickly, and he can help the people as soon as he takes office.

"No, no, let's do our best! Or tomorrow, you just came today, I'll ask someone to clean up the place for you, rest today, and let the people below come and recognize people tomorrow morning.

Subsequently, Li Yujin was arranged in the courtyard behind the county office, and the place where he lived should have been cleaned up, not so dirty, but it was not as good as the Li family, but Li Yujin did not dislike it, this is already very good, and he is not here to enjoy the blessings.

For this new county order, everyone has a lot of speculation, but it's just a curiosity, in the eyes of everyone, no matter who comes, it can't change the reality of poverty in Tanggu, they are still the same, there is nothing to do.

Early the next morning, Li Yujin appeared in the lobby in a neat and tidy manner, at this time, the people below had already come, anyway, it was their top boss, there was no competition, and they would not deliberately embarrass him.

"Ladies and gentlemen, let me introduce to you, this is our sweetheart's county master, Lord Li, he will work hard with everyone in the future, after so many years here, I hope everyone will be well in the future, and I should also go!" Jiang County Ling briefly introduced Li Yujin.

"I just came to Tanggu, I don't know anything, I will rely on your help in the future, let's work together to change the status quo of Tanggu, I believe that through everyone's efforts, the people of Tanggu will be rich!"

Li Yujin said that the pride and ambition, everyone just symbolically echoed it, everyone who just came to Tanggu is like this, but then they can't change the facts, and then leave quietly and go somewhere else, not to mention that Li Yujin is so young, everyone doesn't believe it.

Li Yujin also knows that it is impossible to convince everyone of him with just a few words, "It will be up to the actual actions in the future, I hope everyone will cooperate more!" ”

The strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, Li Yujin knows that if he wants to make a difference, he can't do without the help of these people, so he doesn't care much about everyone's perfunctory.

"Yes, please rest assured, my lord, we will fully cooperate!"

"Okay, I thank you in advance, I have something to bring from my hometown here, let someone send it to you, I hope you don't dislike it!" He just came, he doesn't have much power, and he wants everyone to be willing to help him, it's not very possible, anyway, these things at home are for the big guys.

Two days later, Jiang Xian Ling left, this place completely belongs to Li Yujin, the officials below are okay, for Li Yujin's request, they can be regarded as doing their best, and when the arrangement is made, it is already seven days later.

In Qingyuan County, Li Yuqian's situation is similar to Li Yujin's, the only difference is that the county government here looks very grand on the outside, but it is already in tatters on the inside, just like the officials here, there is no one who really wants to help the people.

However, Li Yuqian's personality is completely different from Li Yujin, in more popular terms, Li Yujin is a more honest character, somewhat similar to Li Anfu, that is, he is a scholar; And Li Yuqian doesn't like to talk, and his sense of existence in the Li family is not very strong, in fact, he is the most powerful!

No one taught him, but those cautious officials, under the warning of Li Yuqian's words, were actually honest, don't look at Li Yujin's young age, he is still quite powerful. To be honest, Li Yuqian has a smart head and a black belly.

Anyway, things here can be regarded as unfolding smoothly, and the officials below are quite supportive on their faces, no matter what they think in their hearts.

Not to mention Li Yuqian, if you look at Li Yujin's side, compared to Li Yuqian's effort, he is much more obedient.

After arranging the affairs of the yamen, Li Yujin felt that the first priority was the cultivation of the peasants, the grain had been planted, and now it was still a seedling, and the management at this time was the most important.

"Uncle, how did you plant in previous years? How do you manage it? When to fertilize? When to water the ground? Li Yujin asked each one very carefully.

"Are you a county lord? I don't think you know how to farm, alas, we have been here, for many years, it's all like this, the yield of grain is too low, and the usual planting is also very careful, almost every day in the ground to pull weeds, when it is time to water, it is also a pick to the ground, but it is not good! ”

"Dung or something, usually the manure at home goes up to the ground, and I go to the road to pick up the dung of cattle and sheep, but it still doesn't work, the land is too thin, and no matter how much fertilizer is enough!"

The old farmer looked sad, although this county order is different from others, but it is useless, if you want to turn the barren land into fertile and the inferior fields into fertile fields, how much fertilizer should be needed.

"Uncle, I don't know if you have thought of any other way to get dung, if you are given enough dung, what will happen to the yield of this grain?" Li Yujin thought of Li Qingshan's method, maybe this is hope!

"Alas, how is it possible, if there is enough dung, the big guy will be able to eat a long time ago!"

"Uncle, what if I have a way? Can you help ramp up production? ”

"What ???" The old man was so shocked that he hurriedly straightened his waist: "My lord, what did you say?" Is it true? "It seems that a long drought is a rainstorm, although it is a little unbelievable, but no one is willing to give up hope, if Li Yujin can solve this problem, but it is the benefactor of thousands of ordinary people!

"Is there a way, but I don't know if it can be done? Do you want to be a staff officer? Li Yujin looked at the old man, he had been teaching the land all his life, he was very experienced, and the help of such an old man was indispensable for farming.

"Let's go, let's go at home, if this is true, then you are the benefactor of the big guy!" It's not that the old man blindly believes in Li Yujin, but looks at Li Yujin's appearance, and he doesn't know anything about farming.

"Okay, uncle, this is still the method my grandfather said, saying that it was used before, doesn't this still have to be discussed with the big guy before it can be used? Rest assured, it will work! Li Yujin smiled and walked side by side with the old man to the village. (To be continued.) )
