At noon, Wang Lanling took a car to a restaurant in the north of the city and had dinner with the rest of the people.

Wang Lanfeng, Yin Wuwu, Tian Yuanfang, Zhao Gongqian, Zhou Wende, Gong Yueman, Liu Fufeng and others sat around a round table with Wang Lanling, and the rest of the subordinates were waiting at the rest of the table.

"I've already sent someone to deliver a letter from the county magistrate, and my return this time is a private matter, so I won't go to meet with the county magistrate in order to avoid suspicion."

Wang Lanling raised his wine glass and beckoned the rest of the people to drink and eat together.

"I'll give you a drink, let's talk while eating, and be more relaxed."

Wang Lanfeng and the others picked up the wine cup and took a sip, and after putting it down, they began to eat and talk.

"Lanling, what are you doing in the official school?" Wang Lanfeng was very curious about this.

On the plate in front of Wang Lanling was a dish of fried shrimp with cucumber, and after eating a shrimp, he said: "It's more miscellaneous, there are things to pay attention to when leading troops to fight, and there are also some precautions in the water-powered farming and officialdom. ”

Yin Wuwu was very concerned about the affairs of being an official, and said, "Where have you been wronged? ”

Wang Lanling smiled, "No, everyone else knows that I'm not easy to mess with, and I went in to study, not to quarrel with others." ”

Tian Yuanfang asked, "How long will your lord stay when he comes back this time?" ”

Wang Lanling said: "For about half a month, there are things to deal with at school, and I have too many things to learn, and it is indeed not as smooth as learning at school." ”

Although he had only been home for half a day, Wang Lanling knew very well where it was better to study.

Even if Zhao Wenrou said that he would not delay Wang Lanling's study, he would have endless time to affect Wang Lanling's study.

Liu Fufeng looked at Wang Lanling, who had obviously undergone some changes, and felt that Wang Lanling would change in the future and become more and more powerful.

"Director Wang, I read the letter last time, and I also asked some people to build water conservancy according to what I said above, but now there are still many people in the city who have nothing to do, and I also told the county magistrate and the governor about this matter, and they don't care about this."

The issue of employment is not the business of the governor and the prefectural ordinance, and there is no way for the two to provide jobs to these people.

Zhou Wende said: "Lord Wang doesn't know, not only the people in the city, but also many people in the Craftsman Department and the Construction Department are not happy, especially in the Craftsman Division, where many craftsmen's wages have been in arrears for a long time. ”

Gong Yueman also said: "This year's activity fund of the Teaching Department is still the same as in previous years, and the cost of money such as buying books and repairing books and classrooms is larger than in previous years, and it is becoming more and more difficult. ”

Wang Lanling didn't expect that the problem would accelerate to such a point so quickly.

From the official doing business to the big layoff, how many years does the normal time last? It seems to be more than ten years old.

In this era, there are fewer rules, and the rights of officials are greater, and the craftsman department, a place where many craftsmen and craftsmen are gathered, has simply become the object of partition.

Their eating appearance is even more unscrupulous.

When these people are laid off, the problems will be even more serious.

Wang Lanling said with a solemn face: "An Dezhou doesn't care about this? ”

Zhou Wende sighed and said helplessly: "It's good for him to take care of himself, because he can't keep the workshops and machines of his subordinates, but Old Man An is hated by his subordinates. ”

The people of Heishui County are fierce, and this people's style is not something that can be explained clearly in one or two sentences, but a large number of facts.

Gong Yueman said calmly: "An Dezhou has made a fortune since the New Year, married a new daughter-in-law, and his son also bought a house in the county, and now his grandson is going to school in the county. ”

Wang Lanling sneered, it was obvious that Old Man An had also made a contribution, no wonder he would be hated by his subordinates.

"For the sake of some interests, I disregard the people of this city and the net worth of many brothers, and I am ashamed to be in the company of such people!"

Wang Lanling stood up and said to the twenty tables in the hall of the restaurant:

"I will go to understand the things in the county in detail, at the moment many people are unable to support their families, I will try to find some ways to let these people have something to do, so that they can make money to support their families, if someone suffers injustice in their family and is forced to be cornered by the officials, tell me that is."

Sun Li stood up excitedly, "My lord is benevolent!" ”

Wang Lanling looked at Sun Li, and then at the rest of the people, "There are not many things I can do, and I can't control the rest of the officials, but some people in this Heishui County, if they are not dogs, if they are people, they should have some bottom line, and they know the truth that if they do too much injustice, they will kill themselves!" ”

"They want to get rich, I don't care, but at least give the rest of the people a bite to eat!"

"If you want to make a fortune for yourself, so that other people's families can't afford to eat, starve to death and freeze to death, then there is no bottom line."

Everyone stood up one after another, and they all looked at Wang Lanling with admiration.

Since there was no Wang Lanling in Heishui County, many people began to be unscrupulous, and now Wang Lanling is willing to stand up and speak for the rest of the people, that is, to give those people a way to live.

The people who can appear to eat in this restaurant are basically those who have no worries about food and clothing, they are all people who work with Wang Lanling, not those craftsmen who are oppressed by the officials.

But the fact that Wang Lanling stood up for those people made these people who were the same people not long ago feel moved.

Wang Lanling sat everyone down and continued: "Eating is always a big thing, I have asked people to go to distant counties to buy food, but the food in Heishui County must also be done well, the Environmental Sanitation Department provides fertilizer, and the Nongsang Department provides technology and land, so that more people can have land to plant." ”

Wang Lanfeng has been managing the Nongsang Division for a while, and said at this time: "Some things are not so easy to do, the governor was born in the Nongsang Division, and he knows much more about the affairs of the Nongsang Division than me, he wants a lot of land to grow tobacco and tea and pepper this year, and you also want a lot of places to grow cotton, and many people in the city come to me, and some of them really can't refuse." ”

Zhou Wende was a little embarrassed, and he also asked Wang Lanfeng for some land.

Since the area east of the river was flooded and no land was allowed to be cultivated, a lot of labor was vacated in the city.

This part of the labor has already begun to be divided among the rest of the big families, and these people are hired to farm the land at cheaper wages than before.

Fortunately, Yin Wuwu stuck some holes, only allowing single people to rent, not allowing that kind of collective nature to pool money to rent land, and only rent for two years.

Once a group of people get together and spend money to rent larger land, it is easy to form a group.

In just half a year, many things began to develop uncontrollably.

Wang Lanling felt that he was really weak and pitiful in the struggle for officialdom.

If you think about it carefully, those people can casually use tricks that make them unable to resist, but in the final analysis, their foundation is too weak.

"I will process cotton into clothes and quilts to sell elsewhere in exchange for money and grain, and some food in Heishui County can also be processed and sold at a higher price."

Wang Lanling has mastered the formula of soda, and it took a lot of time for Lei A to research this, and there is also a lot of credit for Wang Lanling.

Without Wang Lanling's reminder, it is easy to make a fork in the road.

"If I were in the county, many of the problems at hand would have been solved, but now I am really helpless." Wang Lanling sighed.

The rest of the people agree with this sentence and believe that Wang Lanling's words here, these are not problems.

Yin Wuwu said: "My lord, Tong Yuming came to our county once, and he went to the north of the city at that time, and he was originally going to give the land in the north of the city to Jiang Fangyin as the fief of the county lord, but then he changed his mind after being frightened by Li Jian's attack, and now although he has been in the county with that woman, he has not made trouble for us." ”

The simplicity of the folk customs also has the benefits of the simplicity of the folk customs.

On the one hand, the Jiang family is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people in terms of imperial privileges, especially in poor and backward areas, many people feel that this is a natural thing, and some are just envious.

But once this kind of thing happens to you, it's different!!

the tower!

Just like the officialdom of the empire, the phenomenon of seniority according to seniority is serious, respect for teachers is also a rule recognized by everyone, disrespect for teachers is a moral stain, and teachers punish students is the most normal thing.

Seniority people have to be ranked when they eat and party.

Not only the villagers, but also the city people and scholars also pay attention to the relationship between seniors and seniors, the relationship between monarchs and ministers, and the relationship between superiors and subordinates.

But that's only until you tear your face.

There are many things in the court that fight their own teachers, those who drive their predecessors out of the court, those who fight their superiors in the army, and the nobles who carry them are sold in the merchants.

There are many loyal and patriotic people, but there are many people who regard their ministers as mustard, and there are also many ministers who regard them as enemies.

The fact that the Jiang family is an imperial nobleman is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, but this is not contradictory to the fact that the Jiang family was hated when they occupied everyone's property!

The place in the north of the city belongs to Wang Lanling, and it is also everyone's, Tong Yuming came to see that he wanted to draw this place on the Jiang family woman, and asked Li Jianzheng and others if there were any knives and guns in their hands?

Wang Lanling frowned and thought about this matter, although it could scare the two away, but this thing was always a thorn.

The Jiang family is indeed privileged, the daughter of the county lord is the county lord, and the county lord should have divided the fief from the public land, but if someone voluntarily dedicates his family's territory to the county lord, it is also a reasonable thing.

Wang Lanling is a glass ballast, a hard slag that does not accept unspoken rules!

"The Zhao family has already helped me to figure it out, this matter is mainly related to Tong Yuming, and Jiang Fangyin can't look down on the shrimp in the small county town of Heishui County."

Speaking of this, Wang Lanling said with a smile: "In the future, when you are here in Heishui County, you will still speak local dialect, and you will speak Mandarin when you go out." ”

"Yes!" Tian Yuanfang agreed.

Wang Lanling has many issues to think about, and the most urgent problem at the moment is the problem of the unemployed.

The essence of this is that there is a large number of cheap labor without a corresponding new management system and the necessary official assistance.

After eating, Wang Lanling had an in-depth understanding of some things, some of the specific problems that exist at the moment, and some problems that need to be solved urgently.

"The biggest problem is still Tong Yuming's side, that guy has a bad heart." Tian Yuanfang said with some annoyance: "Although he can't come in the county town, he always asks women to trouble the county order and the governor, and says that he wants to find the clan in the state capital. ”

Wang Lanling snorted coldly: "If you really provoke the little ones and the old ones, then some people will have nothing to do all day long, just solve these small things, then Tong Yuming is obviously using the county lord to make trouble for us." ”

After saying some cruel words, Wang Lanling quickly said slowly: "This is really not a way, it is easy to dodge the open gun and difficult to defend against the dark arrow, if it makes a big fuss, it will not be good for them or us." ”

After all, it is the Jiang family, and Wang Lanling doesn't want to be remembered by the rest of the Jiang family because of this matter.

Although not every Jiang family member is valued, as long as the other party is a Jiang family, Wang Lanling and many people can pay attention to it.

Yin Wuwu said: "How do adults plan to solve that Tong Yuming? ”

Wang Lanling couldn't think of a good way for the time being, "I'll deal with this matter." ”

The meeting did not end until about 2 p.m., and most of them went home to rest, except for a few who continued to go to work.

This is the case with officials in this era, and it is impossible to deal with government affairs all day long.

Before the invention of the telephone and the computer, most officials did not have so much government to deal with, unless they were not idle to do something other than what was required.

It's not a time of flood control, it's not a time of catastrophe, everything is peaceful outside, and there are not so many things to be busy with.

Wang Lanling is the busiest person in this county, and he is also the richest person in this county.

After returning home, Qing Tianai, who drank tea and played chess at the gazebo in the courtyard.

"Xiao Ai, have you seen two children?"

Qing Tianai came over and said, "I've seen it, the two little sons are very well-behaved, and now they have slept with their wives, so I can't sleep and come out for a while." ”

Not everyone likes to take a nap, and for a girl like Qing Tianai, who is in the mood for love, she is very energetic and does not feel tired many times.

Wang Lanling rarely took a nap when he was in Tongzhou, mainly because the afternoon class time was relatively early, unlike Heishui County, where he only worked at 3 o'clock in the afternoon.

"Go in and take a look." Wang Lanling walked in with Qing Tianai.

When they came to the bedroom, Zhao Wenrou and Lei A were taking a nap, and the two sons were also sleeping in their respective cribs, and next to them was Jin Ji, who was sitting in front of the two cribs and was responsible for taking care of the two little babies.

Like this kind of taking care of children, it is generally handed over to Xu Baifeng, Jin Ji Jinnu, and Zhao Gongru to do.

In the first month, the Yang family took care of Zhao Wenrou's daughter here, and then came to see his grandson every once in a while.

Generally, women are educated from junior high school and high school, so that they understand how to raise offspring, especially women in military schools and military academies, there will be this kind of curriculum, but more high-end.

From a long time ago, there was an unwitting eugenic program in the upper echelons of the empire.

While improving the survival rate of babies nationwide, it has also had an impact on women and upper echelons, such as Zhao Wenrou and Zhao Wenjian's mother, Yang, is such a representative.

The same is true for Dongfang Wei's wife, the number of sons-in-law and daughter-in-law is controlled in single digits, and resources are concentrated on son-in-law.

Yang has various subsidies every year, and this honor and the concept she has learned make her feel that although it is a little less to have only two, it is still okay, and she does not regret the decision she made.

The imperial court asked these meritorious nobles of the Zhao family to divide the family property equally among each son, whether it was a concubine or a concubine, this kind of thing could continue under the majesty of the empire, but the people below would also find a way to give more to the concubine.

For example, the wife's own property, the mother's property, and the son and daughter's own property, or some means, are all ways to circumvent it.

The status of the wife's sons and daughters is very, very different from that of the children of the concubines and maidservants.

Leia's situation is special, although she is a concubine, her background is too good, whether it is her education or identity, it is much better.

Although there are many talents in Heishui County, Wang Lanling also believes that there are many talents among those nobles.

is like Tong Yuming, who caused trouble for him, and all kinds of big people who don't bother to pay attention to Wang Lanling for the time being.

However, the world is more stupid after all.

Those who occupy high positions must have a special side, but it cannot be denied that some people in high positions are indeed stupid.

Wang Lanling looked at the two sleeping babies, and always felt a little unrealistic, when these two children grew up to be fourteen or fifteen years old, they would be thirty years old, right?

Fortunately, with his current family property, it is no problem to raise a few children, and he will not have to worry about the problem of not being able to marry a daughter-in-law in the garage in the future.

How many children can you have in your life?

Wang Lanling suddenly thought of this question.

Considering that my time is limited, I will only have more and more time to get busy in the future, and I feel that I am indeed going to have good births.

Zhao Wenrou and Lu Leia both have the ability to raise and educate children, if it is Jin Ji and their children, it is indeed a lot worse from the beginning.

The empire's fertility policy seems to be to teach only women, and Wang Lanling has not learned the laws, regulations, and policy benefits of related aspects.

did not continue to disturb the nap of his wife and children, Wang Lanling walked outside.

After chatting with Qing Tianai about Tong Yuming, as well as his doubts about Tong Yuming and himself, Qing Tianai gave an explanation that everyone understands, only Wang Lanling thinks it is inexplicable.

From beginning to end, Lord Wang was only strong in sycophants and basic government arrangements, combining good and evil, and beating others could not be prevented.

But things like officialdom struggles still depend on the old powerhouses.

Qing Tianai grew up in the official workshop since she was a child, and the people there are all female dependents who have been affected by the failure of the struggle, so the political atmosphere is stronger than that of other places, Xiaoai has heard a lot of related things, and she is also interested in this because of her future relationship.

Tong Yuming is not easy to deal with, this person can be said to be the victor left from the struggle for the state capital, although he was beaten back to the county level by Wang Lanling, an outsider, and back to the county level with another stick, but his own strength has not been downgraded.

Wang Lanling didn't understand why Tong Yuming was bothering him, but Qing Tianai and Yin Wuwu were clear.

Not to mention that it is troublesome for Wang Lanling, it is not surprising that Tong Yuming dug up Wang Lanling's ancestral grave.

In Wang Lanling's opinion, Jiang Xinzhi's going to Longzhou had nothing to do with him, so he couldn't understand why Tong Yuming was bothering him.

Yin Wuwu and others thought that Tong Yuming's relegation from the state capital to the county government was Wang Lanling's trouble, so now that Tong Yuming was abandoned by Jiang Xinzhi and became an idler, it was naturally Wang Lanling's sin.

This is the conceptual gap between the two sides, which I think is unreasonable.

In short, I blame you!
