Jinyang, Liu Mang's house.

"Wan'er, tell me about the things you have to deal with a year ago."

It's almost the end of the year, things are very complicated, and there are a lot of clues, but with Shangguan Wan'er, Liu Mang is no longer like before, many things are mixed together and make a big deal.

Now, I can sit comfortably, drink tea, and listen to Secretary Wan'er's report on the schedule.

"In terms of government affairs, there are two priorities. First, the selection of materials. The list of recommended talents from each county has been reported to the county government, and Mr. Xiwen and Li Gongzi are stepping up verification, and if there is no doubt, they will be assessed in Jinyang in the near future. Second, to plan for next year's expenses, Mr. Changsun has informed Li Hongzhang of Yanmen that the two counties will plan their own expenditures, and finally report to the young master. ”

Expenses involve money, and when it comes to money, Liu Mang's head hurts.

However, money is an unavoidable problem, and Liu Mang doesn't want to care about it, but he can't ignore it. "Uh, have you made a preliminary calculation, how much is the expenditure short next year?"

Liu Mang asked with fear, he only hoped that the number of people he heard would be smaller, and it would be a big deal to be cheeky and borrow from Qiao Zhiyong again.

Wan'er seemed to see Liu Mang's thoughts, and the corners of her mouth drooped downward, showing a sad expression. "Preliminary estimates, the revenue and expenditure of the two counties will ...... next year"

Liu Mang swallowed and foamed, and his throat and eyes felt swollen. waved his hand helplessly: "Say it, don't bite ...... lice too much"

"Next year's income and expenditure will be roughly offset."

"Uh...... What?! ”

"Hee-hee-hee, young master, it's roughly offset!"

"Ahh Liu Mang jumped up in shock, hugged Shangguan Wan'er, and kissed him without a head or face!

Wan'er laughed and dodged.

"Young master...... "The slave outside the door said timidly.

Liu Mang hurriedly let go of Wan'er.

"Mr. Dongbi, please ask the young master to come over."

"Oh, got it, I'll be right over."

sent away the slaves, but Liu Mang still didn't believe it. "Really breaking even? Don't have to borrow anymore? ”

"Really!" Wan'er smiled, "The report from Yanmen said that the negotiations between Li Juncheng and Yuci Wen were very successful, and Wen basically agreed to the conditions of the county government, and at the beginning of next year, most of the payment for the joint graphite mine will be paid in advance." ”

"Great! Hongzhang is really a diplomatic negotiator, and he has made a great contribution! ”

"The young master will be happier when he waits, and there is more!" Wan'er deliberately put her hands and the record in her hand behind her back, leaned forward slightly, poked her head, smiled playfully and brightly, and winked at Liu Mang.

"Poof!" Liu Mang happily kissed Wan'er on the face.

Wan'er happily continued to report: "The new policies formulated by the county government for officials, horses, people, herdsmen and land reclamation have also achieved unexpected results. In recent days, Taiyuan families of all sizes have contacted the county government, or to apply for cooperative horse herding, or to apply for reclamation. At the beginning of next year, the county government will also receive a large advance. ”

"Wait." The reclamation policy is not only for the development of agriculture, but also related to the party's strategy. "Which area is the majority of applications for wasteland?"

"On the side of Taihang and Taiyue Mountains, the wasteland in these two places is reclaimed, and the county government has a large discount, and there are many families who have claimed it."

Liu Mang was relieved.

"Also, Mr. Auxiliary Machinery and Mr. Xiwen took the lead and took the initiative to apply for a 30% reduction in income to reduce expenses next year."

"What? Why didn't they tell me? ”

"The auxiliary machine and Mr. Xiwen have come to me, and Wan'er originally promised not to tell the young master about it in advance. But after thinking about it, I felt that I should still tell the young master. ”

"En......" Liu Mang nodded, his thin lips pursed vigorously......

The subordinates think about the county government and themselves. Although the amount of money reduction is limited, it conveys the determination of his subordinates to share weal and woe with him.

For more than a year, his efforts have been recognized by his subordinates. In the future, only by working harder can we be worthy of these capable people who come from all directions, oh no, from all planes, through time and space to assist themselves.

The amount of money is not much, this is an attitude, it is a spirit!

"Wan'er, write it down."

"Hey." Wan'er sat down and picked up the pen.

"If they have wives and family members, they are only allowed to reduce their wages by 20 percent; If the parents and elders are still alive, only one percent of the income will be reduced. All the reductions are recorded as county government loans, and they will be repaid twice when they become rich in the future. ”

"Yes! Noted down. ”

"Also, the subordinates don't care about personal interests, can we think of a way?"

"Yes. Wan'er has already calculated, except for the expenses of the old lady and the sister who attacked the people cannot be reduced, as long as the budget is carefully calculated, the house can reduce the expenses by at least thirty percent. ”

"Wan'er is so capable! In the future, my soup will be skipped, and I will only need to have a bowl of hot water. ”

"Young Master ......"

Liu Mang waved his hand decisively, indicating that it was decided.

"Poof!" Wan'er leaned over and offered an affectionate reward.

"Hahaha...... It's worth it! Liu Mang was happy.

Also, Qiao Dangjia of Qixian County directly contacted Li Juncheng of Yanmen, saying that the evaluation of the sample iron in the field is excellent, and the sales price should exceed expectations. At this price, Qiao's family has made too much profit, but the cooperation agreement between the two sides has been signed, and it is inconvenient to change it, and Qiao's family took the initiative to say that at the beginning of next year, he is willing to compensate the county government with five million dollars. Li Juncheng didn't dare to call the shots, so he reported to the young master to make a decision. ”

"Huh?" Liu Mang was moved again.

Profiteering is the nature of a businessman.

And Qiao Zhiyong is really a righteous businessman!

Benefit sharing is the basis of cooperation between the two sides. The reasonable distribution of benefits is the guarantee of long-term cooperation between the two sides.

Qiao Zhiyong, can understand his own difficulties, how should he repay him?

"Young master, there is one more thing. Listening to the shopkeeper of Tongfuyi Tong, Mrs. Qiao seems to be very sick. ”

"Oh? Why haven't I heard? ”

"The shopkeeper Tong is deaf and clear-sighted, and there is no news that she doesn't know. She said that the Qiao family was in charge and came to Jinyang two days ago to grab medicine. Qi County is a big city in the south of Taiyuan, and there is no suitable medicine. It is said that ......" Wan'er hesitated, "Mrs. Qiao is afraid that it is an incurable disease......"

Liu Mang walked around the house twice. "Wan'er, in this way, I'll go to Doctor Li in a while. He said that he was going to give his mother an external dressing in the next two days. After changing the medicine, let Doctor Li go to Qi County to see if he could help. ”

Shangguan Wan'er said: "Young master, Wan'er should also go." ”

"It's best if you go to condolence on my behalf. The daughter of the Qiao family is sick, so it is more convenient for you to go. After changing the medicine for my mother's eyes, I will ask Tianyou to bring a team of guards to escort you to Qi County, go and come back quickly. ”

"Okay."

……

Li Shizhen looked for Liu Mang precisely to treat the old lady's eye disease.

The old lady has been taking medicine for a while, and according to Li Shizhen, the disease of the viscera has been basically eliminated, and the rest is to solve the residual fire poison in the eyes.

This time, to use external medicine, it is necessary to blindfold the old lady for half a month, and after half a month, the old lady will see again.

It's a great event!

Liu Mang went to tell the old lady in person, and the old lady was also very happy, and took the initiative to apply medicine to herself.

was busy here, Fan Zhongyan sent someone to invite Liu Mang to go to the mansion.

Usually, when subordinates have something, they come to the house in person to ask for instructions, but today they want to invite Liu Mang to the government, Liu Mang's heart is tight: nothing will happen, right?
