Along the wide or narrow streets. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info Li Jin wandered leisurely and aimlessly.

On the extremely prosperous street, people come and go, shoulder to shoulder. Merchants from all walks of life have done their best to attract customers.

Or all kinds of restaurants built majestically, or vendors who have set up shops along the street to sell all kinds of fragrant or spicy snacks. One by one, the business is in full swing.

Although the county town is not big, it is close to noon after walking, and Li Jin and the others are tired and their mouths are dry, plus they got up early today and didn't eat breakfast, so their stomachs are growling at this time.

There happened to be a tofu brain stall nearby, and I used to drink a bowl of tofu brain to rest.

It's late autumn, and after a light rain, the weather is a little cold. But it makes the whole city look a little more refreshing.

"Su Er, Liu San, what about this meal, I'll treat you."

Li Jin slowly shook a folding fan with a picture of a lady: "Just order, don't be polite to me." At noon, we will pick a big hotel to eat and drink. But then again, this time I'll please. Later, Liu San, please, do you have any comments? ”

Li Jin, Su Yuyang, and Liu Shiqing were often together, so they each reported their age, and learned from Liu Guanzhang to arrange the size of the row.

Liu San almost didn't sit down and fell off the bench.

Crying and mournful, he said, "Boss, or I'll invite this meal first."

Li Jin turned his gaze to Su Yuyang again.

"Su Er, will you invite you later, or will Liu San invite you to dinner?"

"Of course it's Liu San!" Su Yuyang immediately set his eyes on Liu Shiqing.

Liu Shiqing didn't dare to slander Li Jin, so he had to raise his eyebrows at the brother Su Er he had just recognized, but he and Li Jin had reached an agreement, and they glanced at the sky one by one.

Liu Shiqing had to make a bitter face, waved his hand back, and said, "Boss, serve thirty bowls of tofu flower first." ”

Thirty bowls? Li Jin was also dumbfounded, this guy looked like a dog on the surface, but he didn't expect it to be quite shameless.

The owner of the tofu flower stall shouted.

Sophisticated put bowls of tofu flowers in bowls, put dried shrimp, mustard and other accessories.

After a while, a young woman with a light face and plain clothes, but as delicate as Chinese cabbage, walked in the distance, about twenty-two or three.

He respectfully said to the old man, "Father, let me help." ”

The old man just snorted and didn't make a sound.

The young woman's expression darkened, and she walked towards Li Jin's table with two bowls of tofu flowers.

It's really **** straight, with a thin waist and plump buttocks. The skin of the face and small hands is white and red.

Maybe it's natural flattery, even when she has a gloomy look and a cold face. still gives people a coquettish charm of being charming and looking forward to life.

Fortunately, after Li Jin crossed over, he won his wife one by one, and he was also the master of the country's beauty and fragrance, and his concentration had already been practiced, and after a few more glances, he turned his senses.

saw his two brothers, including the four guards who had been following him, staring at each other stupidly.

That look, as if she wanted to swallow this watery little young woman in one gulp.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please use it slowly."

The young woman had a cold face, put the tofu flower on the table, her plump sandalwood lips opened lightly, and her voice was round and jade, which made people reverie.

She didn't stay long, and immediately turned around to get another tofu flower.

In the past, when Li Jin wanted to meet such a young woman who was as smart as a peach in a certain restaurant, he had to at least think twice in his heart.

But at this time, we are local parents and officials, and we have to pay attention to the image, right?

With this period of exercise, its psychological advantages are constantly increasing.

Li Jin has experienced so much, and his mood has changed a lot. In addition to the greatly increased psychological advantage, it is naturally a little more open.

Seeing her behave like this, I also felt that it was understandable. A woman like this sells tofu flowers outside, and she looks like a peach, mature, charming, and seductive. If there is nothing to do, say a few more words and laugh a few more times. I'm afraid it will attract more wild bees and butterflies,

I didn't bother with her, and smiled. I started eating tofu flowers again.

A long time ago, Li Jin liked to eat tofu flowers. It's just that I went out to school later, and I messed around in other places. It's like you can't eat the pure, refreshing, and rich flavor of tofu flowers anymore.

Tell them a few guards not to be too restrained, and let them eat quickly.

In this way, several big men began to hula and eat tofu flowers on the roadside stalls.

Although Liu Shiqing was very exaggerated, he ordered thirty bowls in one breath. But this tofu flower is not an easy thing to be filled. Li Jin alone killed three bowls.

The guards had to practice every day, and the amount of food was amazing. Liu Shiqing drank seven bowls in one go, and almost as soon as the pretty widow brought it back, she had already seen the empty bowl.

Uh-huh, the bean brain sold is really delicious, the craftsmanship is also good, smooth and sweet, melts in the mouth, and it is a good chef.

was eating bean brains, but I saw a few men who were walking in shape, and they seemed to be splashing on the street from the small restaurant next door.

With a saber hanging from his waist, he said with a big grin: "Old man Wang, pay your taxes." ”

Li Jin was stunned, "They collect taxes? Isn't this a matter of the county government? ”

Old man Wang looked at the pranky man in embarrassment.

"Uncle, didn't we just pay taxes the day before yesterday, why do we have to pay it today, the little one really has no money......"

The ruffian at the head, about thirty years old, ignored Old Man Wang's pleas for mercy, and walked forward quickly to stop Widow Zheng who was delivering tofu brains.

showed a **** smile on his face, "Yo, isn't this the Zheng widow who is known as Tofu Hua Xi Shi?" I haven't seen you for a few days, but I miss my brother. ”

Widow Zheng's face, which was originally very cold, was frozen a little more. He frowned slightly, trying to get past him.

Unexpectedly, the splash skin was unrelenting, and she still blocked her with a smile on her face: "I said Widow Zheng, don't be so ruthless." Brother is here every day to take care of your tofu flower business. ”

A group of bastards in the back suddenly coaxed: "Big brother, why don't you marry Widow Zheng back, can't you see each other every day?" ”

"Not only can you see it every day, but you can also ouch every day."

Li Jin was also speechless for a while, is this a group of people? Even if it's molesting women, you can't be so tasteless, right?

Old man Wang sighed, he was really helpless, he honestly handed over a pile of broken silver, whistled at Widow Zheng with the goal of achieving his goal, and walked to the next noodle stall with satisfaction.

"Uncle Wang, are they from the Yamen?"

After the splashes left, Li Jin frowned and asked.

Old man Wang shook his head and lowered his voice: "They are the doglegs of the Lin family, a big family in the city, and they collect taxes for the yamen......"

Seeing that Li Jin and the others were all outsiders, he complained.

"Our small shop only earns thirteen or four taels of silver a month, but we have to pay ten taels of taxes, and the dog official in the yamen is really dark, and he doesn't let us live......

If you don't go to the masses, you really can't understand the suffering of the people......

Li Jin knew that she was talking about the previous term, but her old face was still red and hot.

Ay...... It seems that we have to find an opportunity to do something practical for the people.

In the late autumn weather, the sun was still scorching just now, and after a few muffled thunders, the sky was full of dark clouds, strong winds, and flying sand and rocks.

A heavy rainstorm is coming, and the pedestrians on the street are running away, and the vendors who set up stalls are scrambling to collect it, but before they can collect it, the downpour has already poured down.

Under the eaves, small teahouses, etc., are crowded with people sheltering from the rain, and those who run fast are not drenched by the rain, and the slow blink of an eye becomes a soup chicken, and as for the goods that are still placed, they can't take care of so much.

If there is a store, you only need to close the door and window door, which is quite convenient.

Watching the pouring rain fall on the roofs of those shops, Li Jin's heart moved.

In modern times, the industrial and commercial bureau is not for the convenience of management, spending a lot of money to build large shopping malls, so that the vendors can concentrate on the stalls to do business, so as to avoid the suffering of sun and rain, and centralized management, which is very convenient.

Hah, that's it.

Thinking of the smugness, he couldn't help but snap his fingers.

Liu Shiqing has been with him for a long time, and he can touch his heart to some extent, and said with a smile: "What good thing did the boss think of?" ”

When he said his thoughts, not only Su Yiyang and others were moved, but even those traders and pedestrians who were sheltering from the rain were moved.

This is a good thing for the benefit of the people, but I don't know if it will work? Will the prefectural magistrate adopt it?

Looking at the crumbling and crumbling city walls, many people shook their heads and sighed.

Li Jin was full of confidence, and as soon as the heavy rain stopped, he immediately returned to the county office, and asked the three catchers to notify all the big families in the county separately and immediately come to the county government to discuss matters.

Immediately, with a commanding tone, there will be no consequences.

Those big families are all local heroes, and they are somewhat dissatisfied with this commanding tone, but before they get to the bottom of this newly appointed county master, they still have to give face.

More than 20 lords of large families gathered in the public hall, and before Li Jinduan sat in the lobby, Su Yuyang stood behind him, and on each side stood five people with their hands on the handle of the knife.

There was a shortage of manpower, so I had to let the masters of Xiaoyao Sect act as a catcher first, and the rest did it themselves, repaired the collapsed wall of the county government, and then built a row of houses, which was busy enough.

Some people quickly passed the county government account book to those big family heads to browse.

The county inventory is only eight taels of silver, and the last one scraped too hard, this guy must have been struck by lightning!

These old men just glanced at it, and they had already guessed the intention of the new county master, and they were going to scrape the money, but I hope they don't scrape too hard......

Li Jin leaned back in his chair, put his legs on the desk, and said lazily: "The new appointment of this official depends on your support." ”

His sitting appearance does not have the official authority of the county lord at all, but he looks like a gangster.

The big lords frowned, if it was the kind of official who had a good face for eight hundred seriously, it would be easy to deal with, and the newly appointed county lord seemed to be a little elusive.

Too lazy to talk to these guys, Li Jin went straight to the point, "This official wants to build the city wall, and I hope to get your strong support." ”

Sure enough, it's scraping money, and this county master is really good at scraping......

Someone cautiously asked, "I don't know how much of an adult's budget is enough." ”

Repairing the city wall is a big expense, and if this corrupt official and lion opens his mouth, it will be a real headache.

Li Jin grinned, "I don't want your money!" ”

He held up a finger, "But every one of your families must send ten laborers to do voluntary labor!" ”

Xu San, who was standing behind him, added: "In addition, each family pays a load of rice every month!" ”

No way? It's that simple?

Those big men thought they had heard it wrong, and they stayed for a while before they reacted, the county magistrate really wants to repair the city wall?

While dealing with the county magistrate, I quickly calculated it in my heart, and finally felt that it was much more cost-effective than taking money directly.

The city walls of the county town have collapsed in many places, and it has long been an undefended city, but fortunately there is no large number of thieves in this vicinity, otherwise it will be a big trouble.

Even so, these big families still have a lot of thugs to guard their homes in case of accidents. There are no large bandits, but from time to time there are robber squads that always come to fight small fights, but it is a headache, and it is impossible to prevent it.

Ten laborers, the food is managed by the county government, which is equivalent to helping them support people, and handing over a load of rice every month, which is trivial.

After the city wall was repaired, they didn't need so many house slaves, which saved an unnecessary expense, which was very cost-effective.

Subsequently, an announcement by the county government not only alarmed the entire Yishui County, but also spread ten, ten and hundred, and even the entire Linzhou became a sensation.

First, rebuild the city wall, repair the roads, build new houses, unify planning, recruit all masons and carpenters, pay the wages, and provide food and shelter.

Second, a large shopping mall should be built, a new management system should be implemented, and the business households should be registered in a unified manner, and the households in difficulty should be exempted or exempted from taxes.

3. From the date of the announcement, all the jurisdictions of Yishui County shall be exempted from taxes for two years.

The above three articles are indeed enough to alarm the entire Linzhou, and the newly appointed county officials are the old men of Qingda, who really do things for the people and benefit one party.

The construction of city walls, road repairs, new residences, and large shopping malls were huge projects, which cost a lot of silver taels, and the county treasury was empty, so Li Jin could only pay for it out of his own pocket.

There is no free lunch in the world, and this million taels of silver is not in vain, but it will be doubled in the future.

The county treasury is only eight taels of silver, and the county officials pay out of their own pockets, and I don't know who spread the news, which once again caused a sensation in the entire Linzhou.

In these years, nine officials and ten greedy, which official does not loot the people's fat and people's ointment? Don't be greedy for fat intestines and big bellies?

The newly appointed county magistrate is the blue sky lord who really benefits one party, and the people are moved to tears, and they worship the sky one after another, thanking God for opening their eyes.

I don't know who took the lead in initiating the charity donation activity, everyone has money to contribute, strong contribution, even if it is just a big donation, a tool, half a bowl of rice, it is a great support.

The so-called large number of people has great power, don't underestimate these small Dongdong inconspicuous, only the first day, Xu San and others spent a day and a night to count the big money and broken silver, which was converted into nearly 200,000 silver, and there were countless various labor tools, and the county granary was full of white rice.

This is the strength of many people, and the donation is still going on, and the momentum is getting stronger and stronger, which is a great thing.

The masons and carpenters who applied for the recruitment also said that they didn't want the wages, just eat and live, since it was for the benefit of the people, and the old man Qingtian himself paid so much silver, what was the salary?

Li Jin smiled very happily, according to this estimate, even if the funds are not enough, as long as the food supply is guaranteed, the project is absolutely OK!

The day after the notice was posted, the laborers sent by the whole city in Haokun, a large household, were gathered in the county office, and after the lecture, they began to work on a voluntary basis.

Don't want to be lazy, the yamen has recruited a group of young fast officials, and there is a special person to supervise the registration, and if the task of the day is not completed, take the silver to compensate.

Ten times the fine, who dares to be lazy, work hard!

In difficult times, everything is focused on construction, and these newly recruited fast officials can only receive five taels of silver per month in addition to food, which is also voluntary labor for the time being.

None of the boys complained, all of them were full of energy, full of confidence and hope for the future.

The big project began, the whole city was in full swing, the people who spontaneously organized made concerted efforts, full of enthusiasm, in three days, rows of simple temporary dwellings were built outside the city, some people cut down trees, one by one carried them, there were special people to dig the rocks, and one by one from the mountains to the city.

Even if there is no one to supervise the work, no one to organize, you don't have to worry about it, the people who spontaneously organize and volunteer to work are diligent, and the fiery enthusiasm makes you moved.

According to the design and planning of Lord Qingtian, the first batch of dilapidated houses were demolished and demolished and rebuilt, and the residents temporarily lived in temporary simple houses.

Help you build a new house for free, and don't charge you money, you will naturally have a few more laborers in your family, otherwise you will not be able to talk about it on the face, and you will be pointed out by thousands of people.

In difficult times, tighten your belts and grit your teeth to survive this period first, anyway, everyone firmly believes that as long as He Daqingtian is here, the days ahead will definitely be prosperous!

At present, at least, the people living in Yishui County have regarded the newly appointed Li County Order as a clean and honest Qing official who loves the people like a son!
