When night fell, Rouge spread a thick layer of wheat stalks on the wooden planks supported by four large stones, and laid a few pieces of animal fur that I don't know what kind of animal they were, and then laid a piece of plain curtain cloth that was not needed by the county government as a sheet.

"I've wronged the lady." Rouge said apologetically.

Yao Huan sat on the simple bed in the firewood room, and said sincerely: "It's loose and soft, it's all the warm fragrance of the sun, how can you be wronged?" You also go and rest, don't be tired of yourself and the one in your stomach. ”

After Rouge left, Yao Huan blew out the oil lamp and lay in the dark.

The quiet night in the countryside helped her to think quietly about what to say when she followed Wang Coulter to see the county tomorrow.

In the county-level official system of the Northern Song Dynasty, the county was the most unstable position, and one of the major characteristics was the impermanence of establishment and abolition.

At the beginning of the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, there was no "Cheng" under the county order. It was not until the reign of Renzong Tiansheng that the imperial court officially established a county in the form of an edict of the emperor in the two "red counties" of Kaifeng and Xiangfu under the jurisdiction of Kaifeng Prefecture, and this position was above the county book and county lieutenant.

The empire began to set up the post of county governor on a large scale, which was related to the Shenzong Xining reform. Due to the reform of the law presided over by Wang Anshi, the fields involved in agriculture, taxation, and military recruitment were all at the grassroots level of the empire, and in order to implement the new law, counties with more than 20,000 households in each state and army had to set up county officials.

However, Shenzong died, the Empress Dowager Gao listened to the government, the law change faction was blocked, and during the Yuan You period, the position of county leader became vacant in most counties.

Only Kaifeng Mansion is the place where the national capital is located, and the two Chixian counties of Kaifeng and Xiangfu are already busy with government affairs, and the county Cheng, as the deputy of the county, has not been abolished.

Wang Coulter was the person who saved the life of the magistrate of Kaifeng County, and the magistrate took good care of him, but the person he often dealt with on weekdays was still the county Cheng Guo Xiu.

Wang Plough saw the growth rate of crayfish, and at dinner he ate Yao Huan's crayfish stewed with soybean sauce and green garlic with rouge, although the shrimp is still small, the meat has both the thickness of mutton and the sweetness of crab meat.

The honest but lively-minded brother Wang Ploughshare, when he thought of the chicken liver skewers, roasted clams in sauce, and boiled duck liver sent by the neighborhood wine shop every evening and late at night when he was working as a nursing home in the Nunnery Hotel, he was keenly aware that what Yao Niangzi said was true.

This shrimp is not like a shrimp, and the crab is not like a crab, and it should be able to conquer the tongue of the Bianjing people.

Yao Niangzi is willing to contribute, and he is willing to contribute.

If this profession can really be developed like raising quails and pigs, the women of his king coulter can also wear brocade and use female envoys to support their mothers, and his sons can also get the best gentlemen in the county to teach their homework and one day enter the imperial court's Taixue, it may not be a pipe dream!

Wang Coulter was bent on helping Yao Huan succeed, so he told Yao Huan in detail about the history and temperament of Guo Xiu, the county leader. あ七^八Chinese ヤ~8~1~().7,.

"This Guo County Cheng, after winning the Jinshi, can only be a 'candidate', in the south of the army has been a member of the army, a county lieutenant, a state regiment training judge, and a state government shogunate, if it were not for the imperial court edict in the first year of Shaosheng, the county Cheng of Chixian County was only allowed to pick from the lonely Han ascendant, but I am afraid that he will not be able to come here."

Yao Huan knew a little about the selection system of civil officials in the Great Song Dynasty, so he also understood what Wang Coulter meant by 'selecting people'.

In the Song Dynasty, only the top dozen or so people on the list could be directly awarded the rank of Beijing official, and the rest of the people were "elected", and most of them were scattered to the prefectures and counties to be local officials.

If a person is to be promoted to a Jingguan, the road to transfer is more difficult than the promotion from lv1 to the great god in the writer. The selection of candidates must not only accumulate long-term tenure and not make mistakes in their appointments, but also be recommended by heavyweight superiors at the state capital level and participate in the unified examination of the central government.

Most of the candidates have worked the front line for more than 20 years, and they can't be transferred to Beijing officials, just like countless street writers, retired in the sea of people......

However, if a person is selected as a county governor of Chixian and Gi counties, he can quickly be promoted to a Beijing official and serve in the Nine Temples of Chaozhong, the Secretary Province, the Hanlin Academy, the Privy Council, etc. As a result, those elite families in Beijing, once their children are selected as jinshi, but can only be selected because of their low ranking, these families will often trust their relationships and go through the back door, and let their children become county leaders in Chi County and Ji County.

Since it was only used as a springboard to enter the central civil service system, the children who came to the 16 counties of Kaifeng Prefecture to "gild" had no intention of persuading farmers to teach mulberry, build water conservancy, fight drought and eliminate locusts, and improve public order.

This situation became more and more intense, and the imperial historian had to make a statement to the Son of Heaven that those who served as the county governors of Chixian and Qi counties must be "lonely and cold ascendants", and in addition to the recommendation, the court of judges and liunequan must also be strictly selected.

Therefore, Yao Huan was quite pleased to listen to the background of Guo Xiancheng introduced by Wang Liult.

After winning the Jinshi, at least he is a scholar, and he does not rely on his father, but on the grassroots political achievements of all parts of the empire to achieve a Chixian county like Kaifeng County, at least he is a capable official.

is also cultured and down-to-earth, and it is likely that it is easier to talk about the matter of attracting investment.

Yao Huan imagined the blue night sky outside the window of the firewood room as a projector, and made a dozen pages of PPT in his mind to introduce crayfish and the reason for renting the official field, and then fell asleep.

……

The next morning, Yao Huan peeled the shell of the boiled crayfish in soybean sauce, mixed it with the head stubble locust flowers brought by the locust tree in the courtyard with rouge, chopped them together, wrapped them into cooking cakes, and steamed them in a drawer, and put five or six in their pockets before going to find Guo Xiancheng with Wang Coulter.

The mule cart drove along the dirt road to the vast fields to the west.

"The weather is so good, Guo Xiancheng must be digging a canal with the farmers to divert water." Wang Coulter said.

The mule was no match for the horse, and it took more than half an hour to come to a hot ditch construction site.

Kaifeng is located in the Central Plains, the temperature in Layue is not as low as that north of the Great Wall, and the farmers grow winter wheat that can safely overwinter.

When winter wheat arrives in the spring of March and April, it is the juncture of grain filling, and there is no shortage of water. At this time, Kaifeng often suffers from spring drought, and God often can't squeeze out a single tear for a month. As a result, diverting water from several large nearby rivers for irrigation has become the key to farming.

After Yao Huan figured out this truth, he was secretly happy in his heart - if this land can divert water, it will be possible to develop cofferdam breeding crayfish.

Wang Coulter led Yao Huan to a man standing on the ridge of the field and wearing a black veil on his head.

"Guo Xiancheng, the alfalfa I asked for in the barracks was already transported with my brothers some time ago."

"Hmph, the rule set by the Taizong Dynasty back then, whenever the forbidden army in the west of the city receives grain, the forbidden army in the west of the city must go to the east of the city to lead, and the forbidden army in the east of the city wants to go to the west of the city to lead, that is, they want to run more errands for those who are in the army, and they should not waste their physical strength. Now it's good, the military camp is only seven or eight miles away from here, and their military horses want to eat forage, but they teach the people in the county to send it. A man of more than 100 catties, could it be a 100-pound steamed longevity peach, which is not a waste of dim sum? It's a bunch of fucking birds, and the ......"

Guo Xiu was complaining to Wang Coulter on the one hand, but he was still staring at the ditch not far away, and he didn't turn his head until the last few words of scolding, but unexpectedly there was a beautiful little lady standing next to Wang Coulter with a smile on her face.

In the end, he was born as a Jinshi, and the sense of proportion in the bones of a scholar has really been wiped out by grassroots work.

Bursting into foul language at the woman, although he was scolding the forbidden army who was showing off his might, Guo Xiu's face still flashed a trace of embarrassment.

Yao Huan thought it was very interesting, and he simply wanted to applaud this grassroots civil official of the Great Song Dynasty who was fighting on the front line and dared to fight the evils of the times.
