Chapter 39: Resignation

Su Ren drew a big baked cake for everyone, and everyone was very happy. Only Su Ren knew that if he wanted to eat such a big baked cake, he would choke to death if he didn't get it right. It's about the same as Hawking's current state.

At dinner, Hawking choked and rolled his eyes too quickly after eating. Huo Qian hurriedly helped Hawking pat his back, Huo Laosi glared and shouted: "Eat slowly, and no one will rob you, look at your eating appearance, starve to death and reincarnate." ”

Hawking finally swallowed that mouthful of rice, Huo Qian watched his son gobble it up again, and smiled: "This is all the root of the disease left by the lack of food before, it will be fine in the future, slow down, slow down." ”

Su Ren said with a smile: "It's a good thing to be able to eat, only when you are full can you have the strength and grow taller, and a man has to gobble up when he eats, eldest sister, cook more tomorrow." ”

Leng Yue nodded hurriedly.

After that debate, Lao Junguan's personnel relationship was completely straightened out, and Su Ren was justifiably the general manager. Leng Jun will not express any more opinions on business matters. After eating and sleeping, the lively Lao Junguan has become cold in the past few days. The villagers, who are used to doing small businesses here, are a little uncomfortable, and they always send a child over from time to time to take a look.

When Su Ren and Leng Jun went out, Hawking was carrying a shuttle dart and walking around Lao Junguan with the group of children who came to inquire about the news. According to Hawking's words, although there are fewer people now, the guards still have to be done well. Ignoring the nonsense of this group of little children, Su Ren and Leng Jun got on the road and headed towards the county seat.

Along the way, the more Su Ren walked, the more strange he felt. Just after the end of the New Year, there is no work in the fields, and the tenants and farmers should rest. However, everywhere we went, there was overcrowding. The seedlings at the good end were bulldozed, and then the soil was brought to expand and fill in the official road, starting from the foot of Wenling Mountain until the city gate.

"What is this for?" Su Ren asked coldly.

Leng Jun shook his head: "Who knows, there were few people walking on this road before, but today I look at this posture should be a road, such a wide road can run a carriage." ”

"Build roads?" Su Ren sneered. This common thing is really personal, watching Lao Junguan's business getting better and better, he actually remembered to build a road. If you want to build the road first, he understands this sentence thoroughly, but he doesn't know that the road is repaired, but Lao Junguan is quiet, what kind of face will the common things look like when the time comes.

"Hey! Building roads is a good thing, but it has caused these people on both sides of the road to suffer, and the good fields have been filled. ”

Leng Jun said these words, and Su Ren understood. There are many mountains in the middle of the river, and the warm water is located at the foot of the Kunlun Mountain, with ditches and ditches and ridges, and it is not easy to have a large area of flat land. In order to get as much food as possible, the locals are eager to reclaim all the land that can be cultivated, and this kind of land reclamation and road construction is only done by the government.

Today's city gates are also different from usual. The wide gates were barricaded with stones and wooden fences, and five or seven men, all armed with weapons in their hands, were searching the people who were going in and out of the gates. I searched very carefully, not to mention touching my body, my hair bun had to be opened, and I looked through the things I carried with me one by one.

Su Ren was even more puzzled: "Has this happened before?" ”

Leng Jun frowned: "It seems that those wild people in the south have moved, I remember three years ago, it was also like this, it didn't take long for the wild people in the south to suddenly come, killing people without blinking, all our Han people were executed, everything was looted, and they fled immediately without waiting for Shu County to send troops." ”

"South? Yelang, or Qiang? ”

"I don't know, anyway, it's Nanban, coming and going in a hurry, and the clothes and looks are different from our Han people, no one can tell the difference."

There were many people entering and leaving the city at noon, and the queues on both sides were very long. After a busy morning, the public was a little upset, and they didn't have a good face for anyone. They are all from the villagers, but they don't dare to beat and scold, and there are still some who say a few words and push a hand.

The head of the public Zhang Hu was at the gate of the city. Su Ren went straight to Zhang Hu and passed: "Zhang Tou, what's wrong today?" Why are you so busy? As he spoke, a handful of copper coins in his hand were handed to Zhang Hu's hand.

Zhang Hu hurriedly bowed his hand: "Su County Zuo, I haven't seen you for a long time, why do you have time to come to the city today?" It's nothing, the county lord ordered that from yesterday, all those who enter and leave the county town must be strictly checked, and we can only do it. ”

"Oh? But what did Nanban do? ”

Zhang Hu was also shocked when he heard this, obviously he didn't think of it: "No!" In the past few years, those Nanban have been quite peaceful, they have never been to the city, today is just spring, we have nothing to eat here, what are they coming to rob? ”

The three of them gossiped at the city gate for a while, but Su Ren still didn't understand why Wenshui suddenly closed the city. Seeing that his business is about to start, if Nanban comes over at this time, his plan will be postponed. It would be good if his actions were not regarded as a financial enemy, and there was certainly no support.

Zhang Hu sent Su Ren and Leng Jun into the city gate, apologized repeatedly, and said that if he didn't have to be on duty at the city gate, he would definitely personally send the two to the county office.

Compared with the city gate, there is not much change in the city, and those who should do business do business, and those who do work do work. Familiar with the door, the two of them turned from the gate of the county government to the back street and went straight to the back door of the county office.

Su Ren has had many opportunities for the county government in the past six months, and these subordinates of the Changshi family are particularly welcome to such a generous county leader. Without waiting for Su Ren to speak, the doorkeeper accompanied the smiling face: "Su County Zuo wait a while, the villain will go to report to the county honor." ”

Su Ren nodded, threw out three or five copper coins, and ran towards the door. Looking at Menzi's footsteps like rabbits, Su Ren sighed in his heart, no matter in that era, it was still good to be rich!

Chang Yuan came out with Menzi, the etiquette was extraordinarily thoughtful, and a ninety-degree bow made Su Ren feel as if Chang Yuan was saying goodbye to his portrait, if it wasn't for the smile on his face, he would definitely be able to startle people.

"Congratulations to the prefectural saga!" Chang Yuan came to this sentence inexplicably: "Hurry up, please, my master has been waiting for a long time." ”

"Oh? Does the county know I'm coming? ”

"No, no, no, even if the county doesn't come today, I will personally invite it."

"What's the matter! Even if you want to invite me? ”

Chang Yuan smiled: "It must be a good thing, it is better to let my master tell the county Zuo, please!" ”

In the study of common affairs, the Taishi chair and the high-legged small table sent by Su Ren have now been used. There are not only common things, but also Hou Jian. Liu Wen, who surprised Su Ren the most, was also there today. The three giants of warm water gathered in the county mansion, and this was the first time Su Ren had seen it. All of them are robes, high crowns, and a posture of facing the king, and sitting on the Taishi chair is really a bit majestic.

Su Ren bowed to the ground: "The villain Su Ren came to see all the gentlemen." ”

Chang Shi smiled, and said to Hou Jian and Liu Wen beside him: "See, this kid didn't come to me before, but it wasn't this posture, today I met a good thing, and there are a lot of rules, and I know that there are advances and retreats in etiquette, which can be of great use." ”

Liu Wen did not speak, his face was expressionless. Hou Jian nodded again and again: "Indeed, today I will enjoy this kid's kneeling first, and in a few days this kid will see us and we won't have to kneel, if we see him in the future, I don't know, hahaha......"

"Humph!" Liu Wen snorted coldly and turned his face to the side.

Su Ren raised his head and glanced at Liu Wen: "Liu County Cheng ......"

Before the words came out, Chang Shi immediately interjected: "Okay, okay, it's uncomfortable to kneel on the ground, Chang Yuan, bring a chair to Su Xianzuo, not to mention that this Taishi chair is indeed a lot more comfortable to sit on, but it is a little disrespectful to the etiquette law, otherwise I should strongly recommend it." ”

Liu Wen got up and clenched his fists: "County Zun, if there is nothing else, this is my resignation." ”

"It's good! These days have been bothering Liu Xiancheng, everything must be in accordance with the etiquette law, this matter is important, since the establishment of Wenshui County, Emperor Gaozu is also in a hurry, this time must not be neglected. ”

"Whoa!"

When Liu Wen left the room, he unconsciously turned his head and glared at Su Ren, with helpless anger in his eyes.

Hou Jian looked at Liu Wen's back: "What's the trouble with this?" It's not worth it to put a lot of money and not make money, for a breath. ”

Chang Shi also sighed: "Now, Liu Xiancheng's life may be even more difficult." As he spoke, he turned his head and glanced at Su Ren.

Su Ren was confused by the two of you. Since entering the door, he has only said a word and a half, and the rest is the performance of Chang Shi and Hou Jian. Seeing that Su Ren hadn't asked them why, the two of them also felt bored, so they stopped talking.

"Aren't you curious about what we're talking about?"

Su Ren said: "If you want me to know, I will naturally know, no need to ask, if you don't want me to know, even if you ask, you will ask in vain, simply don't ask, but I have a big matter to discuss with the two of you today." ”

"What?" Hou Jian is the most shrewd.

Su Ren didn't speak, first took out his seal letter from his arms, and put his hands respectfully in front of Chang Shi. This is what he sent to engrave after he became a county leader. In the Han Dynasty, ordinary people did not have a seal, even if you were rich and rivaled the country, as long as you did not have a title and official status, there was no seal. Although Su Ren is a county leader, he is also considered to be in the establishment, and he is also the lowest public servant of the Han Dynasty, so he naturally has a seal.

"What does that mean?" Chang asked puzzled.

Su Ren took two steps back: "The villain is here to resign today, and he is going to devote himself to business in the future, so I have come to explain to the two gentlemen." ”

"Why?"

Chang Shi and Hou Jian didn't expect it. Being an official is everyone's dream thing, being an official means privileges and preferential treatment, I have only heard of the officials who have been disposed of, but I have never heard of the officials who resigned on their own initiative. Chang Shi and Hou Jian were petrified in an instant.
