Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

Aunt Ye was very enthusiastic about Ye Xiaotian, a nephew of her own family who could speak well and had a very sweet mouth, but Ye Xiaotian insisted on leaving.

Aunt Ye's eyes were red and swollen at this time, and she really needed to rest. At this time, the women who were separated from Aunt Ye in a panic also came to the door and expressed their condolences to Aunt Ye. Seeing this, Aunt Ye no longer kept Xiaotian, personally sent them out of the courtyard, and pointed out the direction of the county government before going back.

Ye Xiaotian and Shui Wu took Le Yao and Fuwa all the way forward, turned a long street, and then walked forward through two alleys, and a long street in front of them was the scene of the scuffle. It's just that they fled on the other side of the street, and now they are on this end.

The scuffle on the long street is over, because it is too chaotic, and it is estimated that there is no winning side. Ye Xiaotian saw that some people with broken heads and bleeding were being carried away by their companions, and some people were holding their heads like blood gourds and looking for their own wounds and medicines, and those who were doing business had already removed the door panels, set up the shelves, and shouted in a long voice to solicit business, as if they had never given birth to anything.

When Ye Xiaotian saw such a scene, he couldn't help but be amazed. Sure enough, as the man who sold medicine said, the people here are fierce, and probably really regard fights and brawls as commonplace, so a big war has just subsided and order is quickly restored.

The county government of Huxian County is one size smaller than the county government that Ye Xiaotian has seen. There are also stone lions and tethered horse piles at the entrance of this county yamen, which are also smaller than other places, if you don't look carefully, the gate of the county yamen is like a shop, and it is really a bit shabby as a yamen. However, there are also walls and instruments in the door, which means that a sparrow is small and has all five organs.

On the second hall of the county government, the officials of Hu County are gathering together, compared to the difference between the two officials who are only present when they "row the office" every day, all the leaders of Hu County have also arrived at this moment.

Huxian palm print main hall, Qipin Zhi County Hua Qingfeng, now only around thirty years, very clear and elegant temperament, only thirty years old to do a county seal, speaking of the eunuch on the road is considered to be high-spirited, but this county master at the moment has a bitter hatred, more melancholy than the history of Ai Feng Ai Dian who "died before leaving the school".

Meng Qingwei, the county master, and Wang Ning, the chief bookkeeper, as the second official of the county lord, sat on the seat on the left hand side of Hua Qingfeng, Meng Xiancheng sipped tea slowly, and Wang Zhushu kept brushing his beard, looking extremely bored.

Zuo 2 official should have a job and no quality of the history to sit in the third position, but the position of the county's history has been vacant for a long time, and the new history Ai Feng has not arrived, so this seat is empty. As for the head of the third shift and the head of the sixth room, although they are also assistants, they are not qualified to attend the meeting.

On the other side are the consuls and miscellaneous officials, sitting in the seat is the county's Confucian teacher Gu Qingge, the instructor Huang Xuan, although the two have little power, but in this era when everything is inferior and only reading is high, they sit down as a matter of course.

Below them is the county's inspector Luo Xiaoye, the son of Aunt Ye, who is nearly less than thirty years old, and is extremely majestic, but he is not a little domineering under his uniform. Generations of Tuntian garrison here, long since the wear of his sharpness, if you take off this official uniform, it will be like a slightly shrewd peasant. Under him, there are miscellaneous officials such as post officials, tax ambassadors, and county warehouse ambassadors.

Hua Zhixian had a gloomy face, and said in a depressed voice: "Everyone, the three-year examination period is coming, the county's actual household registration, tax collection, average service, water conservancy, persuasion of agriculture, leading the army, eliminating thieves, running schools, morality, exile, relief of the poor, prison lawsuits, etc., is really lackluster, why can you teach me?" ”

All the officials in the hall looked at their noses and noses, and none of them answered.

Hua Zhixian frowned slightly, looked at Wang Ning and said, "Master Wang, how much of the tax you are responsible for?" ”

Wang Ning coughed, stroked his beard lightly and said: "What ...... taxes, the taxes in my Guizhou province are not as good as those of a county in the south of the Yangtze River, and I have always relied on the imperial court for relief. It's not unusual to not be able to collect it, but it's rare to be able to collect it. On the other hand, the relief side ......, my lord, we still have to ask for disaster relief funds......"

Hua Zhixian held his forehead weakly, Wang Ning glanced at him and said, "However, this county has some achievements in terms of actual household registration. ”

Wang Zhushu took out an account book, slowly flipped through a few pages, coughed and said: "Three years ago, our county actually had 625 households, with an average population of 6 people per household, and now our county has 911 households, with an average household population of nearly 6 people......

Although Huling has been established as a county and managed by liuguan, the local ethnic minorities are still autonomous in the great distance, so although they account for more than seventy percent of the total local population, they still only need to report the number of villages and ethnic groups to the imperial court in general, and the imperial court has no way to grasp the changes in population increase.

Finally there is some good news, Huazhi County's spirits lifted, but Meng County Cheng sneered and said: "These populations are not naturally reproduced and grown, but our county is in the main post road, and there are gradually displaced people settling here." As these people settled in the county, there were more poor people in need of relief, and there were more incidents of theft, robbery, and fighting. ”

Meng Xiancheng raised a finger and said in an accentuated tone: "In the past three years, the number of thieves and prison lawsuits in our county has doubled every year compared with the previous year, and now there is still a large backlog of cases, either they cannot be solved, or they cannot arrest the criminals, and the household registration has increased?" Hey! Hey! What is there to boast about. ”

This Meng County Cheng and that Wang Zhushu are needle-to-needle, and they have always been incompatible.

The county is also in charge of the lawsuit, in modern terms, the classic history is the director of the public security bureau, and the county is the secretary of the political and legal committee, and the top boss of the classic history. Don't look at the people of Huxian County, the county government is basically a deaf ear ---- decoration, but after all, it still has some power, so there is a conflict of interests.

The three chairs in control of the county, Huazhi County, who sits in the seat, has no roots, no power, no power, has the heart to serve the country, and has no power to return to the sky, which is purely a puppet. On the one hand, Meng Qing, the county magistrate, used the power of public security to control the local Han people other than the Tun army and their families, and on the other hand, he colluded with a well-known local tycoon.

Wang Zhushu had a close relationship with the Yi and Miao tribes, who accounted for the absolute majority of the county's population, and each of these two tribes originally had a Tusi, but because he led the clan soldiers into war, the court decisively intervened, and took the opportunity to depose their hereditary Tusi and appoint two officials from their clansmen instead.

Huxian County was also established by taking advantage of this opportunity, but Huazhi County came to Huxian County with the high hopes of the imperial court, and did not open the slightest situation in the past three years.

Hua Zhixian listened to Meng Xiancheng's words, and his heart was not sad, he sighed, looked at Gu Qingge, the Confucian teacher of this county, with a little hope, and asked: "Gu Jiaoyu, what about the cultural and educational aspects of this county?" In terms of culture and education, what achievements have been made? ”

Gu Jiao said: "My lord, in the past three years of county school, no student can pass the guò exam to become a student. In fact, not to mention Xiucai in this county, there are very few qualified children and Mengtong. Nowadays, almost all of the people studying in the county school are 'official students'......"

There are two sources of channels for the students of the county school, one is the students who have been admitted by the examination, and the other is the children of the officials and the children of the foreign Yi tribes, according to the rules set by Zhu Yuanzhang that year, they must go to the county school to study, and there is no need for examinations, which probably belongs to a special kind of "compulsory education".

Forced by Emperor Taizu's imperial decree, the local tribal leaders did not dare not send their sons to school, but this class of little devils basically came to go through the motions, not to mention studying, and burned high incense without making trouble.

Gu Jiaoyu sighed twice when he said this, he sighed for a long time, and suddenly raised his head and said: "By the way, speaking of this, the old man has some things to report to the adults, and the teachings, instructors and professors of the six departments in this county have not been in arrears for a long time, and the teachers and students have no intention of studying." ”

Hua Zhixian sneered and said: "It's true that the scholars and scholars have no intention of teaching, and those students don't have any desire to learn, right?" ”

Gu Jiaoyu perked up and said: "My lord doesn't know, at the beginning of the year, a family had just moved to this county, and a student in the family was named Xu Boyi, who was extremely knowledgeable, and now he is a member of the county, and he has no six buckets of food every month." ”

Huazhi County is from a scientific background, and he is clear about the things in the county school, and when he heard this, he immediately doubted: "Gu Jiaoyu, this is not right, right?" Since this person moved here at the beginning of the year, he should still be an attached student now, how can he become an enlarged student and a student so quickly? ”

It is said that the students of this county school are divided into three classes, and the new students are called attached students, and after the annual examination and the scientific examination, those with excellent grades are promoted to increase the number of students and the students of the school, and once they have this qualification, they can receive rice from the government on a monthly basis, which is like a scholarship. Since this student is enrolled this year and has not yet passed the annual examination, of course he should not enjoy this benefit.

Gu Jiao said: "My lord, you don't know, this Xu Boyi's knowledge is extremely outstanding, among these students in our county, if there is one person in the future, it must be this person." This person did not decide to settle in this county at the beginning, but he was eager for talent, and specially promised that as long as he was willing to stay, he would make an exception to receive six buckets of rice every month. In this ......, whether the county can make achievements in culture and education depends on him. ”

Huazhi County sat down blankly, and he was no longer able to complain. Seeing this, Luo Xiaoye, the inspector, touched his nose and began his debriefing.

What Luo Xiaoye said, Huazhi County didn't listen at all. He tilted his head, looked at the dust on the roof in a daze, and put on a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water: "I'm already so unlucky, there won't be anything that makes me even more unlucky, right?" ”

At this moment, Ye Xiaotian broke into the county office in a hurry.

P: On Monday, I asked you for a recommendation vote and voted for it!!.
