Chapter 256: Maggots of the Tarsal Bone
Unable to eat, Wang Lanling went to the county government in a hurry and anger.
When I got down from the sheep cart and walked up the stairs in front of the red drum, I noticed that there was no one here.
Seeing this situation, Wang Lanling did not go in, but stood at the door thinking about things.
After more than ten minutes, a servant came out of the open door slowly, and quickly greeted Wang Lanling after seeing it.
"Lord Wang, I haven't seen you for a long time, why did you come here at this time?"
Wang Lanling saw Wu Yuankui standing guard here, so he looked left and right, "Why are you standing here alone?" β
Usually there are two people, just like the stone beast outside the door, a pair.
Wu Yuankui said with a smile: "One person is enough, it's okay anyway, I just went to the toilet and squatted for a while." β
It's not a shameful thing to be lazy, it's over, the quality of the officials in various places is not as high as the lower limit that modern people can think of, and things that often break through the lower limit are normal things here.
This is indeed a normal thing, but in Wang Lanling's opinion, the taste is very wrong.
Dongfang Wei is a person who is willing to do things, he is incompatible with Heishui County, and he looks down on some things here.
Earlier, the county government and the entire officialdom were scolded by Dongfang Wei, and everyone could slap Dongfang Wei on the table urgently.
But now Dongfang Wei is getting more and more used here......
It's not so much adaptation, but this county order, which has been assimilated by Heishui County, is like a warrior who thinks he can control the ghost and thinks he has subdued the ghost with his fist.
From the outside, the county magistrate is becoming more and more handy about things here, whether it is holding meetings or dealing with things, he is becoming more and more calm.
Gao Shaohan and Wu Yuankui have not changed anything.
The officialdom of Heishui County has changed, but there has been no change.
The three fires of the new official have been burned out.
Now the county commander thinks that his situation cannot be said to be dangerous, but he is basically kneaded by the people below, like a fly that sees a wound, and begins to cling to it unscrupulously one by one.
But this is the scene that Wang Lanling "saw", and the real situation is that the county order is the stable leader in Heishui County.
"Come and discuss something with the prefectural magistrate." Wang Lanling said calmly.
The largest in the prefecture is indeed the governor and the prefectural ordinance, and it is the prefectural ordinance that is currently in power, and it is the prefectural ordinance that can adjudicate everything.
But in reality, the situation is far from the case, and the situation in Heishui County should not be much different from other places, here, like most places in the country, there is a group of imps who cannot be seen.
Wang Lanling realized this, although he is also a person who fishes in troubled waters, he does have his own judging criteria.
Modern people are all lonely, and lonely people are more observant.
Wu Yuankui said with a smile: "Please come in, these days the county has opened a coal village, and many people in the door have gone over to help, and it will be comfortable to spend the winter this winter~"
Wang Lanling walked in, he didn't know how much the county order earned, but these little people would definitely drink soup with them.
Even if the county order does not give these people benefits, they will fight for their own benefits, and unless the county order does not use them, they will definitely not be able to control the hands of these people.
The yamen was deserted, and after Wang Lanling saw it, he said: "I haven't been here for a few days, what have you been doing in the yamen recently?" β
Wu Yuankui said casually: "It's nothing, it's still the same as before, the big dung department, no, it's the sanitation department that also sent someone to pull fertilizer, and the manure pit on our side is lined with two bricks." β
When it comes to getting down to business, Wu Yuankui is much more serious.
"Okay, I'll let someone do this later, but why do you suddenly want someone to come over?" Wang Lanling's subordinates were not responsible for the fertilizer of the yamen and the county commander's family in the past.
Wu Yuankui said helplessly: "The county order can't use so much fertilizer at home, and our people are very busy, so it's appropriate to hand it over to the Environmental Sanitation Department." β
Wang Lanling nodded, he was not stupid, he knew very well that the main thing was that he couldn't sell those stinky things now.
If you have the money, who do you think will look down on those stinky things?
The things of the county government are indeed high in oil, but this thing is only used for farming in the township and nearby large households.
The large households in the vicinity suffered heavy losses due to the floods, because the floods washed a lot of things into the fields, coupled with the drowning crops, this series of reasons led to changes in market demand, making fertilizers no longer valuable.
Now that stuff is just a piece of.
Wang Lanling felt that it was time to open the decree of free trade, use field fertilizer as the basis for trading goods, expand trade between rural areas and county towns, and strengthen the mobility of commodities and the universality of trade.
The pressure determines the motivation, and if Wang Lanling proposed this decree a few months earlier, many people in Heishui County would not agree, but now there is no problem.
Wu Yuankui did not go to guard the door, but talked to Wang Lanling, and accompanied Wang Lanling to the office building area in the compound.
The county commander was fiddling with a pistol in the pavilion in the distance, and when he saw Wang Lanling and Wu Yuankui coming, he shouted in a good mood: "Come here, I'm here." β
Wang Lanling walked over.
Dongfang Wei said: "What's the matter, you haven't come here very much lately. β
Wang Lanling explained: "It's a matter of official business, I've been busy with my studies and preparations for marriage recently, and today I heard people from the Department of Environmental Sanitation talk about the coal used by vendors, and the coal in the city has reached the point of ten yuan, so the price is not good for the people." β
Dongfang Wei put the disassembled pistol aside, looked at Wang Lanling and said helplessly: "You kid must have been fooled by his subordinates, this price is not expensive, the shop worked hard to break the coal mine into coal, if there is always a hard money, right?" Those small traders and hawkers chase profits, and they complain to you only when they see that you are easy to talk to. β
Wang Lanling advised: "My lord, I also know the price of coal, it doesn't mean that you can sell it to the people below at the original price, it's just that the price is too high, let it be a little cheaper to those people below, and they will naturally be grateful to you." β
"Expensive? Is this still expensive? Dongfang Wei's face sank, "I'm afraid you don't know the price of coal in Muzhou, when I was in the army, although I didn't care about purchasing logistics, I also knew the price of coal, and there were twenty-five yuan per ton of coal in the army, how did I get to Heishui County, ten yuan is too expensive?" β
This...... Wang Lanling's scalp is numb, the army of the feudal empire is not the same as the army of modern society.
Even in modern society, the people's army is a unique team in the world, and the problem of corruption in the ancient army was actually far more serious than in other places.
"My lord, where can we compare with the army in Heishui County, here are some poor households who can't afford to buy coal." Wang Lanling could only continue to persuade.
Dongfang Wei nodded, and said impatiently: "You also said that they can't afford to buy coal, coal is bought for those who can afford it, what does it have to do with those people below?" β
Wang Lanling quickly explained: "My lord, people who could originally afford low-cost coal, they burned coal, but now that the price of coal is rising, they can't afford to buy coal, so they naturally choose to buy firewood, and there is not much wood in the county, those who have money buy firewood, and those who don't have money naturally can't buy it, and if they can't buy it, they will freeze to death!" β
Dongfang Wei said in annoyance: "What can you afford to buy, you are going around, can it be that if I sell some coal, other people's families will not be able to burn firewood?" What nonsense are you! β
Explain economic issues to an ancient person, and the other party is still a military attachΓ© and a person with vested interests, so some words are incomprehensible and cannot be taken to heart.
Wang Lanling wanted to say something, but the county magistrate waved his hand, "Okay, okay, I know what you're going to say, the coal bought by the Environmental Sanitation Department in the future will be two yuan lower per ton." β
"During the winter this year, if you are short of coal there, you can just talk to the people in the store, everyone is their own people, how can I treat you badly?"
Dongfang Wei thinks that he is very generous, after all, when he is rich, he also has to take care of his own people.
Although Wang Lanling is not his original team, he can be regarded as his own person, and he should give some benefits.
Seeing that the county order still couldn't be listened to, Wang Lanling said directly: "My lord! The people in Heishui County are almost the same as the people in Shanzhou, don't look at the death, they have been honest for a while, but when it comes to freezing to death, I am afraid that it will make trouble, and when someone goes to cut mulberry wood again, it will not be a trivial matter. β
This is Wang Lanling's mistake, all he sees are some people who are easy to talk, so he doesn't understand the true side of those under him.
But as long as these people are mobilized, they are definitely worse than those who can only fight in Shanzhou.
The people on both sides and the people of Muzhou are all bird-like, fighting and killing people, and their lives are as cheap as dogs.
Shanzhou people fight with their fists directly, and Muzhou people fight with forbearance and sneak attack to play dark.
In Heishui County and other places across the country where the descendants of the garrisons are concentrated, the fights are all in earthen guns and artillery trenches, large-scale mobilization connections, and squad-style transportation reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance.
Wang Lanling, who had never even used a soil gun, didn't think about how strong these people's means of protecting their own interests were.
Dongfang Wei knew better than Wang Lanling what the character of the garbage in Heishui County was, he pondered for a while, and said seriously: "You don't have to worry about this, if anyone dares to cut the wood on the mountain this year, it will be impossible to get along with me!" β
Dongfang Wei didn't listen to persuasion at all, and after driving away Wang Lanling, he found the governor and wrote a report applying for the closure of the mountain, asking the people in the county not to approach the mountain, and some people on the mountain should also move down!
The people of Yunshui County felt that this request was reasonable, and in order to prevent those untouchables from going up the mountain to cut down mulberry trees and some state-owned property, sealing the mountain was a good solution.
Not only mulberry wood, as long as it is something on the mountain, it is not allowed to take it privately, this is all the things of the imperial court!
