Wang Lanling and Lin Zunian bypassed the territory of Jinshan County together, and Lin Zunian explained why.

"Jinshan County is not peaceful now, the rebels gathered in Yanshan County, Tianmu County, and Shanhai County in the past have been wiped out by the army of the previous two years, and now there are hundreds of bandit villages in the mountains of Jinshan County, and the bandits are serious."

"We are now from Yanshan County and the foot of Jinshan, and we will go to Shanhai County to gather people first, and it will be convenient to go anywhere when the time comes."

Now that safety is the priority, Lin Zunian doesn't want to run to a dangerous place with Wang Lanling.

Wang Lanling went to Shanhai County to take up his post, so the people of Shanhai County knew this in advance from the official documents, but Hu Wangxiang didn't know about Wang Lanling's coming, and the transportation in Jinshan County was inconvenient, and the information transmission was relatively backward.

Wang Lanling said: "In this way, can you get there today?" ”

Lin Zunian replied: "The territory of Jinshan County is very large, although the detour is a little farther, but at least it is peaceful, and I passed by Yanshan Lake when I came over, and I said hello to Hu Zhong, we can spend the night at his place tonight." ”

Hu Zhong...... Wang Lanling thought about it, as if he was a follower in the Muzhou caravan.

"Where is the shepherd?"

Lin Zunian said: "What I heard Hu Zhong say is that Musheng is now in the state capital to take care of the business for the county government, and he has stopped doing official business since two years ago, and several brothers who followed him have also gone to the state capital to enjoy a happy life. ”

The shepherd is an official position, and the shepherd is the name.

Generally, if you have been an official for a long time, you will use your official name as your surname.

Wang Lanling asked, "Why didn't Hu Zhong go?" ”

Although he doesn't have too many memories, Wang Lanling feels that Hu Zhong doesn't feel like an incompetent person.

Lin Zunian said: "Hu Zhong is different from others, he used to be from the state capital, and later after his father's death, he took the initiative to go to Yanshan County to cultivate land and herd sheep, at first there was nothing, and then more and more people took refuge in him. ”

"Musheng Chun Yuping and they all went to the state capital to enjoy their blessings, and their subordinates had nothing to rely on, Hu Zhong couldn't bear to let the rest of the people be violated by horse thieves and bandits after he left, so he stayed there and refused to go to the state capital, and more people nearby took refuge in him, and now although he is not an official, everyone regards him as a shepherd."

"Now Hu Zhong has 5,000 households and nearly 100,000 cattle and sheep, this person is very good at farming and shepherding sheep, and he also takes the initiative to do business with the surrounding areas, and he is a good man who speaks his word."

"There are still many places in the surrounding mountains where people who don't want to be horse thieves and don't want to do bad things will go to him to ask for a piece of land to help farm and herd sheep."

Wang Lanling didn't expect Hu Zhong to be able to do this, if it was changed to other ancient dynasties, this kind of person would definitely do a lot.

It's just that the identity of the Muzhou people, and the background that is not the meritorious system, let the talents of this kind of person be buried, and there is no promotion channel.

Wang Lanling asked again: "What are the specialties nearby?" I plan to develop trade first after I go to the prefecture. ”

Lin Zunian looked at the mountains and meadows in front of him, and patted the neck of the donkey in front of him, "Where do you need any special products, now the business is bigger than the official background, things are getting worse and worse, the money here in Muzhou is not good, the past two years have returned to the point of bartering, cattle, horses, donkeys, women are ordinary currency, guns and ammunition are not worried." ”

Wang Lanling was a little helpless, "It seems that if I don't solve the problem of public security, my trade road will not be able to open." ”

Lin Zunian said: "Yes, my lord, now Shanhai County is waiting for you to go over and make decisions!" The people of Shanhai County pay taxes on time, pay grain and money, but the county government just doesn't help them, and other counties always don't deal with the county government, and the county government doesn't care, and they let those people bully the people of Shanhai County. ”

Wang Lanling thought about it for a while, he had seen too many cases on the side of the school, and the school had also discussed many management courses for various situations.

"As long as the people in Shanhai County pay their taxes on time, the idea of the county government is to survive these few years, and then the people will be fine as soon as they leave, and if you go to those hard bosses, it is easy to turn small problems into big problems."

Wang Lanling roughly understood the doorway, and explained: "The situation here has been maintained for decades, even if there is resentment at present, it will be able to go down in a few years, and the current mainstream should be the group of people who have grown up here since childhood and have become parents." ”

"This group of talents is the backbone and the key object of maintaining stability, and letting go of the current situation of bullying the weak and fearing the hard is not really not wanting to take care of things, but dividing and provoking contradictions between the two sides."

"For example, the people of Shanhai County now, do you say that you resent the county government that has been doing nothing for a long time, or do you resent those thieves who bullied them?"

Lin Zunian felt that Wang Lanling's statement was ridiculous, but when he thought that this was Lord Wang, he was puzzled and said, "This sounds too strange, I don't understand." ”

Wang Lanling smiled, "It's normal not to understand, think about it from another angle, since you didn't care about it from the beginning, and let these people go their own way in the past few decades, have these people adapted to have things to solve by themselves, and at the same time, they have also adapted to the special situation that the imperial court is far away, as long as they don't leave here, there will be no problem?" ”

"The county government's management method for these 20 counties is to fish in a roundabout way, standing in the distance and circling these fish to prevent them from running away, and gradually unload their strength."

"But it's really not a good place here, although the county government has the means, but I really don't have the heart to deal with these people, I just want to go home in a mess."

"Now whether it is the people of Shanhai County or the people in other places, they have already understood that the county government does not care about things, so if something happens, there is no idea of finding the county government, they all solve it by themselves, and if they can't solve it, they deserve to be bullied."

"Since it has been like this for a long time, as long as the newly appointed official master is a little bit of an official, he understands the consequences of changing this way of dealing with it."

"Once you let the people below know that there is something to solve, you can still find the official master to solve it, how do you say those people are still messing around?"

"It's one thing to mess around, but there are also many problems that can't be solved, and once they can't be solved, some people will count the old and new hatreds together."

Unlike Yunzhou, the state capital and county government on the side of Muzhou Mansion have always diluted their sense of existence.

Because of some treacherous behaviors of the imperial court and local officials, old and new officials were afraid that these people would come to them for liquidation.

Therefore, these people slowly found a set of management knowledge that is in line with the current situation, that is, to turn national hatred into family hatred.

The aliens are too honest and there are few people, so the people who come to make trouble as villains are the active people in the pioneers.

On the one hand, it is the self-agnosis of the descendants of these pioneers, and on the other hand, it is the government that fuels the troubles, identifying the problem as an internal struggle between the pioneers, making some people feel that they are innocent victims affected by those people, and those who are dishonest pioneers who have caused a calamity.

Lin Zunian was silent for a while, and then said slowly: "My lord is so powerful, I can see this, I can't think of such a thing in my life." ”

Wang Lanling looked at the mountains in the distance and said calmly: "Don't underestimate those who can become the governor of the county, these people are all talents. ”

In the official school, Wang Lanling learned a lot, and there were all kinds of talents who were officials.

What Wang Lanling has improved the most is not the knowledge in books, but the insight.

Although he didn't meet with Shanhai County Shou, Wang Lanling knew very well that this person was not the kind of person who did nothing, and he was very capable, but he didn't want to take care of this broken place.

As an official, Wang Lanling is not as good as these talents, and his advantages are only strategic construction and planning.

The normal Jiang family was arranged here, and they would not think about building here.

Not to mention the Jiang family, even if any official is assigned here, he will only feel that he has been exiled.

Although the territory here is large, it is garbage compared to any small town in Longzhou.

In the era of the official standard, Emperor Tiangao was not popular, not a last resort, and no one liked to go to the frontier to live.

I think about it during the day, cry at night, and I want to go to the capital in my dreams.
