Time slowly entered the fifth month of the lunar calendar.

The summer here in Shanhai County is not hot at all, it is very refreshing, especially when the mountain breeze blows, it is very pleasant, and it is a good place to escape the heat.

Wang Lanling's life is very nourishing, the roads and houses in Shanhai County are steadily paved, and every two days there are foreign businessmen waiting in places such as paper mills and garment factories, taking money to buy things.

Despite the soaring prices, everyone is not stupid, the difference between coins and banknotes is particularly obvious at this time, no matter how depreciated it is, it can't be lower than the price of copper and iron, right?

The unscrupulousness of the monetary system has made Wang Lanling and many people suffer deeply, but fortunately, the imperial court has gradually abolished every penny, and now the lowest is a dime coin.

In any case, the imperial court has noticed this kind of thing, although it is four years late, but sooner or later it is better to pay attention than to ignore it.

If the court doesn't care anymore, everyone really has to figure it out by themselves.

The wind and rain in Shanhai County are smooth, and many people who work and develop here have gradually forgotten another place.

Because the state government does not distribute newspapers to the county seat of Shanhai County, Wang Lanling is also out of touch with the development of the outside world and does not know what is going on outside.

Blackwater County

The rain poured down, and the raindrops the size of beans were pounding on the windows.

The usually lively county town has been quiet and dull these days.

Tong Yuming walked into the mansion with an umbrella, and entered the house after placing the umbrella at the door.

The owner of this mansion is a woman of the Jiang family, and she is also the county lord of Heishui County, and her fief is the female noblewoman of the Jiang family in Heishui County.

In the room, a woman in her twenties was smoking a cigarette on a carved wooden bed covered with silk, and her feet were resting on a chair outside the bed, where a fair-faced young man was pinching her feet.

The woman lay on her side on the bed and enjoyed, and after hearing the voice, she squinted and said, "You're back, you came back early enough today." ”

As she spoke, the woman began to bring the long cigarette stick to her mouth again, inhaled comfortably, and sprayed it comfortably on the face of the delicate young man in front of her.

The boy is a play, which can also be called a little girl, and he is the kind of favorite who is deeply liked by the male and female hosts.

Tong Yuming's face was very solemn, he had been married for three years, and he didn't want to express any opinion on the actions of this Jiang family woman.

"Pack up your things, and we'll go to the county tomorrow for two months."

The woman opened her eyes and looked at Tong Yuming, "Okay, what are you going to do in the county?" I'm not going, I'm comfortable here, I'm not going anywhere. ”

Tong Yuming walked over and said very seriously: "There is something wrong in this county, I feel it for a while, and some people's eyes are becoming more and more unscrupulous. ”

When the woman heard this, she said with a smile: "Look at you, you were scared away by a group of Diao people from the beginning of here, we have lived here for three years, most of the people in this city are soup households in my fiefdom, and they have to pay me money every year, what are you afraid of?" ”

Tong Yuming explained: "It's different, in the past, we had to move their way of life and wealth, but now those people have no way of life and money!" ”

"In the past, it was Yin Wuwu and Tian Yuanfang's group of people, and those people at least cared about some things, but now I can't find a leader at all, it's a group of people who want to make trouble."

The woman didn't care at all, she didn't believe it, put the cigarette holder to her mouth and said with a smile: "Live well, what are they doing?" ”

Tong Yuming looked at this woman, his heart flashed, and then he quickly and calmly said: "Forget it, I'll go to the county to buy some new books, and it is estimated that I won't come back for a month or half a month." ”

When the woman heard this, she said lazily: "Well, go ahead, bring me some when you come back, the food and drink in this Heishui County are all good, but there are too few dances and inks." ”

Tong Yuming agreed, and soon went upstairs to pack his things.

Before Tong Yuming had gone far, the woman chuckled and stepped her toes on the face and mouth of the little girl at the end of the bed.

It's summer, and although it's not the hottest time, women don't wear much at all, and when they lift their legs, they are full of excitement.

This woman doesn't pay attention to hygiene, but that's not the point, the point is that after Tong Yuming went upstairs, he began to pack up valuable things and necessary things.

He has also lived in Heishui County for two or three years, and although he has not greeted Wang Lanling in the past two or three years, he is actually very clear about the development potential and problems of this county.

Although it is not as good as Zhou City, Tong Yuming believes that if Wang Lanling continues to guide and manage here, it will not take a few years to surpass Yunshui County.

It's just that Wang Lanling is not here now!

This is the most urgent and troublesome problem at the moment!

It's been raining heavily outside for two days and one night, and it doesn't mean to be slow at all.

Heishui County has not had a major disaster for three years, if you don't count Wang Lanling's time, then there has not been a large-scale flood for more than ten years.

Because of Wang Lanling's relationship, the Water Affairs Department has not done anything else in the past three years except digging a reservoir, and the drainage facilities on the street were all repaired during Wang Lanling's period.

There are also electricians who were fired a few months ago, and slums that are now more than a meter watered.

This year's Yunshui County will definitely put the water in Heishui County, Tong Yuming is very sure of this.

If it doesn't rain, everything can last for a few more years.

At this time, the economy of Heishui County itself was hit by the currency issued by the imperial court, plus the taxes collected by him and the county lord, plus the taxes collected by several departments on those merchants and farmers.

Tong Yuming ran away decisively, even if he thought about it too much, it didn't matter, it was nothing more than staying in the county town for a few more days.

Once he is correct, then he will probably kill his wife, after all, over the years, their husband and wife have not accumulated a lot of money, and the dogs in the county often collect miscellaneous taxes in the name of the county lord.

It's not just raining in Blackwater County, it's raining in many places nearby.

It is raining heavily in one-third of Yunzhou, and it is meant to continue.

Yunshui County and Yunzhou Prefecture are meeting to discuss this matter, and the county government of Heishui County is also meeting to discuss this issue.

It's not just Tong Yuming who is a smart person, but it's really only one Wang Lanling!!

Tian Yuanfang didn't care about the system, stood up at the county government meeting and said anxiously: "What is the right thing now?" This year, it's going to be a big flood! ”

Yan Jinshan's face was not very good, and he said with a cold face at this time: "What else can I do?" Everything is based on the county, can you still do the opposite? ”

Liu Fufeng of the Water Affairs Department also looked very bad at this time: "The county will definitely let us release water, once the water is released, then the north of the city will definitely be flooded!" ”

Qin Ruyi of the official market department was very sad, he had just reached into the shopping mall in the north of the city and had just received hot food.

Qin Ruyi said bitterly: "At the beginning, why did you build that merchant market in the north of the city? ”

This question was asked well, and even Tian Yuanfang was stunned for a moment.

The commercial market in the north of the city itself was established to control the water and protect the people behind it!

It was a flood control headquarters that a group of people who worked hard for a common goal.

When the flood came, if it was to be flooded, it would first flood Lord Wang in the command post.

Now that Lord Wang is no longer there, most of the shelters in Hulu Mountain and Heishui County have also been occupied by various heroes in just a few years.

Dongfang Wei said: "The matter is not so serious, the rain has just been falling for two days, and now it is the rainy season, which is normal!" Don't make such a fuss, be calm! ”
