Chapter 36: Zhao Yun's Private Interview (Part II)

The next day, Zhao Yun quit the workers and continued south. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

In about two hours, it was within the jurisdiction of Lingyang County, and a large amount of farmland had already appeared in sight.

Unlike the north, where corn and wheat are cultivated in large quantities, it seems that rice is the main crop, and corn is rare, and it is more of the three high-yielding crops, which are now also cultivated in large quantities in the Central Plains.

Take a closer look, there are actually a lot of fish in the rice field, Zhao Yun can't help but be surprised, won't these fish eat the rice? However, seeing that many rice fields are actually made of fish, it can be seen that these fish should not eat rice!

Now that the autumn harvest is not far away, the ears of rice in the field are hanging down heavily, and they are golden as far as the eye can see. It seems that this year will also be a good harvest, and the key is that there will be an additional batch of fish.

In the field, Guo Yi's family is busy, and Zhao Quan's family, who has just been recruited, is also helping. In addition, the two hired workers who were responsible for taking care of the fields also came to help, and the potatoes were constantly turned out and then harvested quickly.

Looking at the basket of potatoes, Zhao Yun had also planted the field, and at a glance, he knew that there were at least eight stones or more. An acre of land can produce more than 20 stones, which almost scares him, you must know that if you grow corn or wheat in the north, one acre of land will also produce one stone!

No wonder the people of the autonomous region live so well, with this grain production, food is not a problem at all!

I can't help but look at the corn and sweet potato fields, which are said to have a good yield, but I don't know what they taste. From the north all the way south, there are still many areas that advertise that these three crops are poisonous, so the people do not dare to eat them.

Can't eat it, someone else planted it to play? The rumors stopped at the wise man, and the family refused to plant for the people, mainly because they were worried that the price of food would plummet, but if the three crops appeared in large quantities on the market, then these messages would naturally be self-defeating.

Others were busy, and Zhao Yun didn't want to disturb others, so he continued to leave.

An hour later, he finally came to Lingyang County, and after showing his ID card at the city gate, he was able to enter smoothly.

Lingyang County is completely different from four years ago, originally temporarily fenced with a wooden fence, but now it has been replaced with a city wall. The nearly six-meter-high wall was erected there, giving the inhabitants a high sense of security.

In the city walls, there was a surge of people, and it was close to noon, but there were still many pedestrians on the streets. However, Zhao Yun found that the main road in the middle was basically not walked, and the people who went forward were concentrated on the road on the right side of the main road, while those who came towards him walked on the road on the left side of the main road.

There are also a lot of plants and trees planted on both sides of the main road, why this is happening Zhao Yun couldn't understand, he even saw that there were people wearing special 'sanitation' horse coats, taking care of these plants.

These plants are really meaningless, but Zhao Yun has to admit that after having these plants, the city has become a lot more beautiful. Walking on such a path, I feel that my mood will become much better.

There are shops on both sides of the road, and not far away it is even more noisy, and it seems to be a market. I asked a resident, and it turned out that it was indeed a market, but it was not an ordinary market.

The residents' market in Lingyang County will still have to go forward for a while, mainly dealing in grain, vegetables, meat and aquatic products. As for ordinary firewood, rice, oil and salt, you only need to go to the supermarket to buy it. Since IKEA opened four years ago, it has opened all over three counties, and even Qiyue Town and other towns have branches, with good quality and low prices, and a good reputation.

As for this market, it is mainly for foreign merchants to divert goods and purchase goods, and generally only foreign merchants will go there.

This year, it is not only the autonomous region that is buying grain, but several surrounding counties and even the neighboring prefectures have actually sent people to collect grain. The key is cotton, the cotton cloth made from this thing is delicate and silky, and it has good warmth. It is not much better than a leather jacket, and it does not have the bloated feeling of a down jacket, so the sales are very hot.

Zhao Yun is not in business, and although he is curious about the market, he has no intention of going over to see it. Instead, I found an inn as a place to stay today. However, in recent years, the price of the Chase shop has also increased, and it actually costs four cents, and the four-person room has to sleep with others, but it is still six cents a night.

The more luxurious single rooms have risen to 30 wen a night, not to mention the courtyard, which has almost increased by 50%. In the end, Zhao Yun thought about it and slept in the Chase Shop. Fortunately, the salute can be stored, and they are saying that they can't sleep and can't live in peace.

After the check-in process was processed, a servant asked if he wanted to have lunch. Zhao Yun had only eaten breakfast, but he was not hungry, so he wanted to go out for a walk. It's not easy for the little guy to force others to stay, and seeing that Zhao Yun didn't eat, he had no choice but to give up.

Leaving the inn, Zhao Yun was idle and had nothing to do, so he wandered around Lingyang County.

"At the beginning of man, nature is good ......" There was a burst of reading sounds not far away, which attracted his attention, and he couldn't help but walk towards the place where the sound came from.

In the end, I found that the sound came from a huge courtyard, and there was a plaque outside the courtyard, with the words 'Lingyang County No. 1 Primary School' written on it. There is also a small sign next to it, with the words 'Excellent Unit under the Education Bureau' written on it.

Zhao Yun suddenly realized, it turned out that this was the Mengyang Academy in Lingyang County, which was mentioned in Zhao Feng's letter. In fact, there are many academies in the north, but they are all private schools opened by the family, and ordinary people are afraid that they are not qualified to enter them to study.

Attaching importance to education, the impression of the autonomous region has become more complete.

Unconsciously, I walked to the middle of the city again, and I saw the government building from a distance, which is completely the landmark of the city, and the five-storey government building is completely outstanding in Lingyang County.

Unlike other places that are deserted, there are many people surrounding the official mansion today, and it seems that a high platform has been built. Zhao Yun was curious, so he walked over, and when he got closer, he saw a banner that read: 'Lingyang County General Voting Conference'.

"Folks, what's going on with this voting meeting?" Zhao Yun was curious, and asked a young man beside him.

"Your Excellency is from outside the autonomous region?" The young man looked at Zhao Yun strangely, and then asked.

"It is true that I only came to the autonomous region yesterday." Zhao Yun nodded, there was nothing to hide.

"Actually, it's nothing, when the president took office five years ago, he announced that an election would be held every five years. The county commander and the county lieutenant should report their work in the past five years to all the residents of Lingyang County. All residents with Lingyang County ID cards can come and vote. You can choose them, you can choose another person, you can even choose yourself or abstain.

Finally, the votes are counted, and the person with the highest number of votes serves as the county magistrate, and the original county magistrate may be flattened or demoted or dismissed. Not to mention anything else, even the head of our autonomous region is now carrying out propaganda in Taoyuan County, but looking at the autonomous region, who will not vote for him? The young man was also enthusiastic, and told the truth about the situation.

"Even the principal may be replaced?" Zhao Yun couldn't even think about it, when would the people choose officials?

"You haven't been in contact with the Mo Family Society, have you? In Momen's thoughts, whether it is the government or the emperor, it should be a virtuous person living in it, and it should be elected to the top by all the people. The principal was a disciple of Momen, so he tried this policy in the autonomous region. If nothing else, as long as you have a long-term resident ID card of the autonomous region, you can also participate in voting! The young man laughed.

"But what if a corrupt person is chosen?" Zhao Yun couldn't help but be a little worried.

"How dare they? Not to mention that everyone's eyes are bright, this kind of scum is naturally impossible to be selected. Let's say that if we are in office, we can't appeal to the procuratorate and then hand it over to the procuratorate for handling? The young man said slowly.

"What kind of department is the procuratorate?" Zhao Yun naturally didn't understand.

"It's the regulatory department, as long as any official is corrupt and perverts the law, we people can appeal. It is best to provide evidence, and if not, they will also investigate, and if the situation is true, the official will be arrested and punished according to the law! Of course, if there is no evidence and the officials are falsely accused, the people themselves will be punished by fifteen days of detention. The young man said.

At this time, there were bursts of applause from the stage, and this year's county candidates had obviously been selected.

Chen Cong saluted all the people and promised to make the economy of Lingyang County go further and make the lives of all the people of Lingyang County better in the past five years. Apparently, he was re-elected as a prefectural magistrate for a second term.

"I see, what should be the basis for promotion?" Zhao Yun asked curiously.

"Every five years, an appraisal meeting will be held to evaluate the achievements of officials in the past five years. The best candidates were selected, and then the government paid for the people of Taoyuan County to vote and hold an election meeting.

Only the ones with the most votes are eligible for promotion. After all, the people don't trust you, how can they accept your leadership? As for those who are chosen, they will naturally not be counted among the candidates at the next level. For example, Chen Cong, the county magistrate, since he has been promoted, will not participate in the election meeting of county-level officials. The young man said slowly.

"In other words, Chen Cong has not been promoted this year?" Zhao Yun was stunned.

"Chen Cong's work is good, but his ability is slightly insufficient, and there are several candidates this year who are stronger than him in terms of work ability, and the key is that he has a good reputation, so Chen Cong can only be said to be a pity." The young man sighed.

"Thank you very much for your advice!" Zhao Yun nodded and thanked him.

"It's nothing, it's a gesture, speaking of which, are your Excellency and the captain of the personal guard Zhao Feng related?" The young man asked abruptly.

"But it's my brother, I don't know if Your Excellency is ......" Zhao Yun suddenly became serious when he heard this. can know Zhao Feng, I'm afraid that his identity will not be too low, the key is how did he guess that he was related to Zhao Feng?

"You look very similar to Zhao Feng, I look at him every day, and then I see you, if it weren't for your age being younger than him, I really thought you were Zhao Feng." The young man laughed.

"So, Lord Chief, can you please not just leave my line of sight?" At this juncture, another voice came, and Zhao Yun felt that the voice was very familiar when he heard it.

Looking over there, he was overjoyed, but it turned out that it was his brother Zhao Feng. But he couldn't help but be startled, and the eyes that looked at the young man changed completely, after all, he clearly heard that when his brother called him, he said 'Lord Chief'.

"Lingyang Li Yu, Xi is the head of the autonomous region!" Li Yu couldn't hide it, so he smiled and said.

"Grass people Zhao Yun, I've seen the principal!" Zhao Yun was frightened and hurriedly saluted. (To be continued.) )
