Yong'an County, the seat of the former county Yaxian and the current People's Military Government, Zhou Lei yawned and approved the last document, and slightly sorted out the documents on the table, blew out the candles, and slowly walked out of his office house.

Zhou Lei has been in charge of the county government for more than ten days, and every day is busy from morning to night, not because Zhou Lei's ability is not good, but because the People's Army has just occupied Yongan County for a long time, there are too many things that Zhou Lei needs to deal with.

After a month or two, everything will stabilize and Zhou Lei will be more relaxed, but Zhou Lei guesses that after Yongan County stabilizes, there will definitely be more things beyond Yongan County that Zhou Lei needs to deal with, and the People's Army will not stop at Yongan County and Haifeng County.

Walking towards the place where he lived, Zhou Lei recalled his life in the mountains.

Before the age of fifteen, Zhou Lei was still Zhou Shishi, just an ordinary mountain child, because he was tall and strong among the children of his age and a few years older than the age difference, and he became the leading brother of this group of children.

However, at the age of fifteen, because of the death of the old village owner, everything changed, Zhou Lei and others studied with Teacher Fang Nan, reading literacy, arithmetic, and listening to Teacher Fang Nan tell various stories.

During the study, three years have passed, and under the guidance of Teacher Fang Nan, Zhou Lei has really become mature, and his knowledge has increased rapidly, which is no longer comparable to the mountain people.

It was also during the three years of study that Zhou Lei and other classmates gave birth to a common dream, to go to the outside world, defeat the landlords and old wealth, overthrow the Ming Dynasty, and let all the poor people in the world live a good life.

As a mountain dweller, this dream is unrealistic, but Zhou Lei and other students believe that under the leadership of Mr. Fang Nan, even if the road is very difficult, they will eventually be able to complete their dream.

In another three years, Zhou Lei also became a teacher, teaching a group of students to read and write, and when he was a teacher, Zhou Lei was also learning more knowledge through several books written by Mr. Fang Nan, the most important thing is management knowledge.

The scope of "management" is very large, it can be to manage a farm, it can be to manage a business, or it can be to manage a village, Zhou Lei's new knowledge is many times more difficult than the knowledge learned in the past three years, but Zhou Lei was not overwhelmed by these difficulties, he studied hard, and he could ask Mr. Fang Nan for advice if he didn't understand.

In the past three years, Zhou Lei also married a wife and had children, and officially started a family, his wife Zhu Qiaomei is Zhou Lei's classmate, and the two got along very harmoniously, and almost never quarreled.

After three years of teacher life, Zhou Lei has the opportunity to show what he has learned in the past three years, this year, the People's Army was officially born, this year the People's Army expanded rapidly, starting from assisting Fang Nan teacher to manage thousands of people in Hutou Village, Zhou Lei will integrate the knowledge he has learned in the past three years.

Another two years have passed, the KPA has grown to the point where it can no longer hide in the mountains, the KPA is about to raise its flag and embark on the road to accomplish its goals or dreams, and everyone has waited too long for this day.

In the middle, Zhou Lei had an incident that he could not forget in this life, and it was also because of this incident that Zhou Lei had an extra wife by his side, because of this second wife, Zhu Qiaomei and Zhou Lei had a long cold war.

The People's Army officially raised the flag, and after leaving the mountain, it directly divided its troops into two routes, took Yongan County and Haifeng County in one fell swoop, and established the Yongan County People's Army Government and the Haifeng County People's Army Government, Zhou Lei is the county magistrate of the Yongan County People's Army Government.

From managing thousands of people in Hutou Village to directly managing the population of about 100,000 people in a county in Yongan County, this step is quite a long distance, and Zhou Lei is also worried that he will not manage Yongan County well and delay the people's army's plan.

Fortunately, everything went smoothly, and after a few days of adaptation, Zhou Lei has been able to become a near-mature county magistrate, and he can process the documents submitted below very quickly and correctly.

Every day from morning to night, very tired and hard, Zhou Lei persevered, teachers, classmates, students, and other comrades of the People's Army are working hard, Zhou Lei does not want to regress by himself, thinking of his parents, wife, and children, Zhou Lei's body continues to surge with strength to support him to continue to work hard.

The Ming Dynasty was very strong, and the People's Army was very weak, but the People's Army was growing rapidly, and new people were constantly joining, everyone had their own ideas about joining the People's Army, and Zhou Lei also had it, or like most people, in order to let all relatives live a good life, instead of continuing to live a hard life of getting up early and greedy every day but barely having enough to eat, not being able to eat meat, and not being able to wear new clothes.

After becoming the county magistrate, Zhou Lei really understood how luxurious the life of the landlords was, living in a spacious, bright and comfortable house, wearing gorgeous clothes, and eating big fish and meat at will.

Of course, these are what Zhou Lei learned, and even Zhou Lei can enjoy it a little, but Zhou Lei has no time to enjoy it, and now is not the time for Zhou Lei to enjoy a good life, once the People's Army is defeated by the enemy, then the good days that can be seen now will be lost, and only by overthrowing the Ming Dynasty, Zhou Lei will enjoy the luxurious life of those big landlords.

Seeing the granaries of the big landlords full of grain, Zhou Lei felt that these landlords were very ridiculous, obviously they were already so rich, but they were still squeezing and exploiting those poor people, and they were squeezed and exploited until these poor people fled into the mountains.

Zhou Lei understands that greed is the biggest evil of the landlords, and under the effect of greed, they have no scruples and work hard to squeeze and exploit the poor people, just to get more wealth.

The big landlords also know that the common people will rebel if they can't get by, but many big landlords don't care, the Ming Dynasty government is their reliance, and the mud legs rebel easily, and they will be easily exterminated by the officials and soldiers.

After a long night's sleep, a new day came, and after a simple breakfast, Zhou Lei returned to his office again, processing the documents that had just been handed over by his subordinates.

Zhou Lei opened the document and took a brief look, and signed and approved it without noticing the problem, which is Zhou Lei's main task.

The People's Government of Yongan County is divided into multiple departments, such as taxation, civil affairs, agriculture, and criminal law, and all matters are handed over to various departments first, and small matters are directly solved.

It looks very easy, but it has only been more than ten days since the establishment of the Yongan County People's Military Government, everything is starting from scratch, there are naturally many things, so many documents need to be approved all day long, Zhou Lei's eyes have to be spent.
