Chapter 148: The new official takes office and holds a meeting first

The meeting with Li Chengqian was only half an hour, and after bidding farewell to the prince and waving to everyone who was still in the long pavilion, Luo Yan embarked on the road to Lantian County. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

The official road was smooth all the way, and the coachman was also in a hurry, so he slowed down, and in just half a day, Luo Yan was sent to Lantian County. According to the usual practice, Luo Yan reported to the Ministry of Officials before leaving Chang'an, and the Ministry of Officials had special personnel who would be sent down to inform the current Lantian County Commander Luo Yan of the situation. Since he arrived in Lantian, Luo Yan couldn't run over to hand over his duties to others in the early afternoon.

So after staying in an inn, Luo Yan wrote a letter of worship to the current county order, asking Ah Quan to send it to the county office, saying that he would go to the county government early tomorrow morning to hand over.

This is not Luo Yan's show, no matter how you say it, you have to let the family be prepared. Before coming, Lu Deming also specially informed Luo Yan of the matter. This can be said to be a kind of etiquette in officialdom, leaving plenty of time for the ex to prepare, or to make up for something that has not been sorted out. The joints are all tacit.

Luo Yan didn't want to be aggressive as soon as he came up, so that in the end, he would have no friends.

When Ah Quan came back, he told Luo Yan's family that he already knew, and said that when he was waiting at the county office tomorrow, Luo Yan began to rest with peace of mind. The carriage is tiring, don't look at it, just sitting in the carriage and walking such a little way, but it is not easier than reading for a few hours.

At dawn the next day, Luo Yan was woken up by Ah Quan's knock on the door. When I opened the door, I saw Ah Quan standing at the door with food bought from outside.

Looking at this young man who was only four years younger than himself, Luo Yan couldn't help but laugh and said, "Ah Quan, now you don't have to go to the morning court, why are you getting up so early." ”

"Master, you don't understand, now you are also the head of a county, shouldn't you dress up well when you take over the duties? If you want me to say, it's too late by this time, I forgot that the official uniform has not been taken out and ironed, and if there are any folds, it will be too embarrassing for the master. Ah Quan looked right.

After all, in the past, Luo Yan was in Beijing, whether he was an official or a part-time official, and his job was very idle and had no real power. Although the official is small now, but the real power is great, this bit of knowledge, Ah Quan is a slave who was rewarded by Li Shimin, and he is naturally still clear.

"Okay, okay, the official uniform is on the shelf, and by the time you think about it, it's already too late. I've seen it, and there's no fold you're worried about. Okay, now that you're awake, bring me a basin of water, and I'll wash my face first, and I'm still stunned at this time. Patting Ah Quan's shoulder, Luo Yan said angrily.

Putting the food in his hand on the table, Ah Quan picked up the wooden basin and went down to fetch water. And Luo Yan sat on the stool in a daze.

Regarding the next road, Luo Yan already has a rough plan after experiencing Lu Deming's teachings. After all, his impression of Lantian County only exists in a few simple information given by the Ministry of Officials, and this one belonging to Shangxian County is also famous in the Chang'an generation. The county has a large population and a lot of arable land, but the government treasury is not full.

Speaking of which, Luo Yan's predecessor is also a capable person, and he has completely exerted his ability to defend Cheng to the extreme, and in the two years since he took office, Lantian has never paid a single point less in various taxes, how much was the treasury at the beginning, and how much it is now, it has not increased by half a point, but it has not been reduced. This is already a very powerful skill.

It's just that these things are still too brief, Luo Yan wants to know more details, and he needs to understand them well after taking office.

After washing his face, Ah Quan insisted on sorting out his official uniform, and Luo Yan went downstairs. There were not many people in the inn in the morning, and after Luo Yan went downstairs dressed up, he shocked everyone he saw.

The people know a lot about the clothing of officials, although they don't know Luo Yan's duties, but after these people were shocked, they greeted very respectfully: "Lang Jun is well." Smiling and nodding to the greeting person, Luo Yan got into the carriage and rushed to the county office.

Seeing the direction of the carriage, these people knew it in their hearts. It turned out that this young man in his early twenties was the newly appointed county magistrate. The news that Lantian County was going to change the county order spread in Lantian County as early as after receiving the documents from the Ministry of Officials. Just as the spring planting was over and the farming was idle, the people in the city began to talk about what the new county magistrate was like.

So at this time, when they saw Luo Yan's official uniform of the sixth grade official, and walked in the direction of the county office, everyone immediately understood what was going on.

Not to mention that the news of being released from the inn was spreading in Lantian County, and when Luo Yan arrived at the county office, it happened to be the beginning of the morning. At this time, all the officials in Lantian County were able to rush to the county office, and there was plenty of time for these people to chat.

Along the way, seeing that the stalls selling breakfast were about to be withdrawn, and the pedestrians who were already coming and going on the street had gradually increased, Luo Yan nodded, feeling very satisfied. I'm afraid that there are few people under my rule, and it feels like playing a single-player game. Besides, if there are more people, there is also a sense of accomplishment in benefiting the people.

The carriage arrived at the gate of the county government in just a moment, and when he got out of the carriage, all the officials of Lantian County were already waiting at the door.

Originally, Luo Yan's official could only let these people wait in the courtyard, but Luo Yan also had the identity of the founding county magistrate, and his grade was much higher. Originally, the current county magistrate was going to go to the inn where Luo Yan was staying to greet him, but he was persuaded by the county who wanted to come and know the nature of acquaintances.

"Since this Luo County Commander has already said that he will take over his duties at the county government today, he must mean that he doesn't want me to wait to greet him. rushed over, but it made people dislike. ”

So everyone was waiting here early in the morning. Who Luo Yan is, these low-level officials also know, and as soon as the county order is said, they start to talk about this strange man in the officialdom. After all, Lantian is very close to Chang'an, and what Luo Yan has done in the past few days has already been spread here, and strange people are the most pertinent evaluation of Luo Yan by these people who keep dying but have never died.

As soon as Luo Yan got out of the carriage and saw so many people saluting him, he was a little uncomfortable, and he bowed in return, and said at the same time: "You don't have to be polite. In a hurry, Luo Yan only thought that his official rank was the same as one of them, and he had to return the gift after receiving a gift. But he forgot that he still has a lord who is not too big or small.

It's not that Luo Yan is stupid, it's just that in Chang'an in the past, the people I see are either officials older than him, or titles are higher than himself. Only those who do not salute others by virtue of friendship, how can anyone bow down to them. It's all a matter of habit.

Seeing everyone's somewhat embarrassed faces, Luo Yan patted his head, and then remembered that he was a big man here. smiled at the moment and said: "Don't worry about anything else, in the future, you will run for the people of Lantian and deserve to be worshiped by Luo Yan." It was a very reluctant reason to expose this omission, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

At that moment, the current county magistrate came out and said: "Lantian County Commander Xu Song, respectfully invite Luo Langjun to go to the county yazheng hall, and put it there as soon as the affairs are handed over." ”

Nodding, Luo Yan followed behind Xu Song and led a group of officials to the county government hall.

The so-called handover is to check the documents issued by the officials, and at the same time hand over the official seal, the county's account books, and so on. After the procedure was completed, Xu Song refused Luo Yanyang's banquet and rushed to Chang'an immediately with his subordinates.

It's not that Xu Song doesn't give Luo Yan face. It stands to reason that Xu Song should not refuse an invitation from a well-known Jane in the emperor's heart. But after the handover of duties, it should be the time for Luo Yan to play and have a good relationship with the officials of Lantian County.

It is better to let Luo Yan misunderstand for a while, than to pit Luo Yan for being hated by him for a lifetime, Xu Song is definitely not confused in this matter.

Bid farewell to Xu Song and let Ah Quan arrange a place to live, and Luo Yan took the officials to the back office. Under the leadership of the county magistrate, he went to the place where the county order handled official business, and asked these people to sit down, and Luo Yan began to ask about the situation of these people.

The county took the lead, and everyone made a simple self-introduction. Luo Yan is also familiar with his group of people.

County Cheng Chen Yuru (the author of the dragon set played by the rivers and lakes of the horse), in his thirties, Jinshi with eight years of martial arts, came to Lantian County for two years, and followed Xu Song to do a lot of practical things. If Xu Song leaves office normally, this is very likely to take over as the county commander.

The main book Liu Zongshen (Xue Scarlet Blood Dance girl wants, completely like an uncle, I don't know if it suits my appetite, haha), a local, in his forties, he also took the imperial examination in the Sui Dynasty, but he didn't win, and after returning to his hometown, he was elected by the local government.

Song Zhen, the county lieutenant, is also a Jinshi in the eighth year of martial arts, but his fate is not as good as Chen Yuru, and he waited for a vacancy in Beijing for half a year before being sent here.

As for the little officials of Liucao, although Luo Yan roughly remembered the names, he still needed to get close to them in the future to be familiar with them.

When the new official took office, he was supposed to burn the fire. However, Luo Yan didn't have any habit of giving people a dam, just asked these people to simply hold a meeting after they were introduced. That's right, this is the first fire of Luo Yan in office.

"I, Luo Yan, must have known some of the things I have done from different sources. In fact, I'm a very reasonable person. ”

After a pause, feeling that his self-introduction was really a bit chic, Luo Yan coughed lightly: "You must have all heard that I was belittled here by Your Majesty." Everyone knows why. In order to seek His Majesty's forgiveness, I will definitely be diligent and diligent in the future, benefiting the people of all places. In my hands, as long as you abide by the law and work diligently, you will be indispensable to everyone's benefits when the time comes. ”

Hearing Luo Yan's very direct promise, these people couldn't help but smile. The more such people, the easier everyone gets along, and this status is not low, and the promised benefits will not be unfulfilled.

"However, I also warn you in advance not to covet benefits that do not belong to you. Don't blame me if anyone has long hands. "If you promise benefits, you can't help but give a warning. The dirty things of the local officials, long before they came, so many people reminded them, how could Luo Yan not know. However, he has always adhered to the principle of "don't say anything unpredictable", and Luo Yan still explained carefully. (To be continued.) )
