Suppressing the grief in his heart, Li Yanzhi visited the fallen soldiers in the village separately, and repeatedly confirmed to Dou Lichang's son that there was nothing missing here, before saying goodbye to him, and then led everyone on the road back to the county government with a heavy heart.

The current situation of poverty among the families and the livelihood problems after the loss of Dingkou made him worried. Now that the county government treasury is difficult to open, the money, food and other materials needed for the pension are still unknown where to come from, and how to implement this matter still needs to be considered in the long run. It's just that the current situation of poverty in each family has made this matter unprecedented in Li Yanzhi's heart. During this period, there were no more than twenty or thirty families of the families of the fallen soldiers. However, if this pension had to be paid by him first, these twenty or thirty families would have been enough to pay off all the private wealth he had accumulated now.

Fortunately, earlier today, Li Yanzhi had already written a letter and sent it to the county government. If Xin Taishou sees this letter, whether it is to officially issue an official document to temporarily hand over the governance of Lingju County to Li Yanzhi, or to appoint a new reliable county order to Lingju County, it is an acceptable result for Li Yanzhi at present.

After returning to the county government, Li Yanzhi waited for the generals who had gone to various places to return one after another, and then summarized the omissions added by each team and the results of the inspection. During this period, he asked Liu Jiwu to take more than a dozen people to the market in the county seat, and purchased a large number of food, water and wine, ready to reward these soldiers who had worked hard all day.

Some of the servants wanted to return home, but after hearing Li Yanzhi, he said that he would set up a banquet for everyone to comfort everyone for their hard work. Even though those errand soldiers were dissatisfied in their hearts before, at this time, looking at the wine and food brought back by Liu Jiwu and his soldiers, those dissatisfaction had long since disappeared.

Seeing Liu Jiwu and others, they sent those drinks and food to the room, and after a while, the delicacies came out of the pot one after another. The smell of the house filled the courtyard, making the soldiers who were resting in the courtyard salivate. If there is no patience, he has already rushed to the house to strike first, and the rest of the people outside saw it, and their hearts were very uneven, and they got up and rushed to the room, Liu Jiwu saw this, rushed to the courtyard, and shouted to stop, and those soldiers settled down under the constraints of their respective generals. Liu Jiwu rushed to the room again and drove out a few monkey anxious errands, so that those delicacies were saved from the embarrassment of being swept away in advance.

Seeing that the food and wine had been prepared, and the soldiers and soldiers were all looking anxious, Li Yanzhi also put down the affairs in his hand and put the registered files and other things aside. Then he ordered the soldiers to bring the wine and food to the backyard, and put together a dozen or so cases in the backyard, and the voters each found stools and futons, sat on the ground, poured wine and began to feast.

Li Yanzhi ordered the soldiers in the camp to only drink three bowls per person. The rest of the people don't have restrictions. Those soldiers knew that he was a transferred officer, but they didn't dare to disobey, so they did what they said. Seeing that it was not early, Li Yanzhi called Zhao Da and ordered him to restrain his subordinates, and returned to the camp after eating. Zhao Daben should be taken down. After eating and drinking with the soldiers in his team for another half an hour, he got up to say goodbye to Li Yanzhi, and then returned to the camp with his own soldiers.

The rest of the soldiers and servants did not have many restrictions, and everyone swept away the wine and food that Liu Jiwu bought, and then went back to the room to rest with a drunken spirit.

On the morning of the next day, the soldier Li Yanzhi had previously sent to the county government returned to the county, along with Xin Taishou's reply to Li Yanzhi's Chen Zuo. He said that he was aware of the current situation in Lingju County, and officially issued a document ordering Li Yanzhi to take charge of the affairs of the county government. He also said that Zhang County's absence, he had submitted the table to the state governor Zhang Envoy Jun Chen. As for whether to wait for Zhang Xianling to return to succeed him in the future, or whether Zhang Envoyjun will appoint another candidate, it will be decided by Zhang Envoyjun.

At present, when there is a shortage of county-level officials, officials who are too conservative can temporarily appoint people to take charge of the affairs of the county government, but they do not have the right to directly appoint and dismiss the county magistrate. Therefore, when there was a power vacuum for county-level officials, Taishou, as the top boss at the county level, could only temporarily appoint someone to take charge of it.

With this warrant, Li Yanzhi was able to rely on the official seal left by the county order in the county government, as well as the official document issued by Taishou ordering him to take charge of the affairs of the county government, and went to the government treasury to ask the clerk to open the treasury for inspection. In fact, after receiving this warrant, Li Yanzhi immediately got up, found the official seal of the county order from the back hall, and then carried the warrant issued by the prince, so he called Tao Heng to take his soldiers to the treasury.

Liu Jiwu had been running around for days before, and he was tired. Yesterday night I was staggered, and I drank late. At this point, he is still not awake. Li Yanzhi didn't call him to get up. Liu Jiwu's personality was originally calm and calm, and after being tempered in the previous army, he was already worthy of work at this time. However, after all, personal energy is limited, and working at the grassroots level such as the county government will inevitably lead to running around day after day and be tired. But there is no way to change it for a while. Lingju has a lot of affairs now, and it is the time to deal with affairs and break his legs. In addition, Zhang Mingfu did not know where to go, so the heavy burden of Lingju County was pressed on Li Yanzhi's shoulders.

If you don't die, you have to find your own guilt. On the way to the treasury, Li Yanzhi also began to quietly laugh at himself in his heart. When I first arrived, I had no idea how complicated these piles of county affairs were. At this time, I realized that today's Lingju County is simply a thunder. It's no wonder that Zhang County's order suddenly disappeared. Smart people see that the situation is not good, so they choose to avoid it early. And a stupid person like him is often the one who tops the thunder.

Although he laughed at himself like this, Li Yanzhi also knew in his heart that in order to realize his long-cherished wish of the Eastern Crusade, a strong army that could fight and dare to fight was almost indispensable. In order to build a strong army, we must first start with the economy and lay a solid material foundation for this strong army. Although he has been hit by a thunderbolt now, things always have two sides, which is not only a thunderstorm, but also a rare opportunity for development.

If you can rely on your own efforts to put the affairs of the county government on the right track before the arrival of the new county order, especially in production. It is believed that even if the new prefectural order arrives, it is unlikely to be changed.

In the midst of his thoughts, a group of generals had already arrived at the county government treasury. This time, after showing the clerk who was guarding the treasury the document signed by Taishou himself, and the official seal of the prefectural order, the clerk finally relented, and then opened the door of the treasury.

Li Yanzhi complied with the request of the scribe and asked all his subordinates to put on a single shirt to prevent theft. Only then did he enter the treasury one after another under the guidance of several officials. Tao Heng, who came this time, also didn't know how to write and ink, so Li Yanzhi could only ask him to take the soldiers to the warehouse to take inventory, while he was holding a book and brush next to him to record.

Nowadays, although ready-made pencils are also easy to use. However, even when Li Yanzhi is outside, he still uses a brush when he records the permanent documents such as accounts. After all, although the use of brushes is cumbersome, it is not easy to tamper with. It is easy to preserve and can be accessed at any time.

A group of people worked hard all day to liquidate it, and now there are more than 3,200 stones of corn and wheat and other grains in the treasury of Lingju. With the help of the officials, the treasury was counted, and more than 20,000 yuan was made. There are more than 100 soybeans.

Such a thing was really unexpected by Li Yanzhao. He secretly calculated in his heart, just such a little thing, if it was distributed to those loyal martyrs as a pension, I am afraid that it would even last until next year. Not to mention the need to reserve military rations, as well as to be ready to deal with the resettlement of possible displaced people, there are holes everywhere, and money and food are needed. However, looking at the poor and sour appearance of the Lingju County Treasury, it is that no hole can be filled.

Li Yanzhi held a brush in his right hand and drew the last stroke on the account book. Then he sighed, closed the account book, and beckoned his men to go out of the warehouse.
