Chapter 116, Face Changing Meter

"Alright, let's go meet this officer."

Fang Xiaoyue did not refuse the request to meet, no matter what, although Taoyuan Valley was isolated in the 100,000 mountains, it could not get rid of the contact with Subei County.

Whether it's salt, cloth and other substances or anything else, Taoyuan Valley can't produce it now.

Fang Xiaoyue walked in the front, followed by a group of strong men.

After training swordsmanship in Taoyuan Valley, going out hunting, and eating well every day, Zhang Ping'an's young and strong bodies have also become a lot stronger, and they followed Fang Xiaoyue's side, carrying knives and guns one by one, looking a little murderous.

That official is actually the new household official of Subei County.

The so-called household officials are the officials in charge of household registration, tax collection and other affairs in the county government.

In addition to the household officials, there are also officials, rites, soldiers, criminals, and workers, which are the heads of the subordinate departments of the county order, and there is a group of officials under each room, who are responsible for all aspects of the operation of the entire county government.

Although these officials are not serious officials, their status in the county government is very important, and most of them are passed down from generation to generation.

Let your officials be as clear as water, and you can't escape the officials who are as smooth as oil, and the officials in this sentence refer to these six room officials.

No matter how honest the county order is, it is difficult to get rid of the officials who try to manipulate the county government for personal gain, because whatever the ancient county order wants to do, it is impossible to do it in person, and it has to pass these officials.

For example, if you collect taxes, it is impossible for the county magistrate to collect taxes from door to door, right?

For example, repairing river embankments, recruiting people's husbands, etc., it is impossible for the county magistrate to do it himself.

At this time, the first line of heavenly stone walls has been demolished.

There was a good harvest of potatoes before, and if this stone wall was not demolished, it would be too difficult to transport potatoes.

The household servant stood in front of the sky with a few servants.

The household official is slightly fat, and his predecessor has long been killed by the Beiyue Army, this may be the confidant brought by the county commander.

However, looking at the complexion, I also know that in the past days, I probably couldn't eat too much, and I was able to grow meat in this short period of time, which shows that the position of the household official is still full of oil and water.

Fang Xiaoyue had already arrived in front of the house official at this time, but the group of strong men behind him couldn't help but feel a little weak when they saw the servants behind the house official.

Even the official in front of Li Min, the official in front of Li Min, subconsciously took two steps back.

"Bold! When you see Master Ben, don't kneel down quickly! ”

The household servant immediately noticed his cowardice, which made him very angry, but it was a pity that the few officials he brought with him were also newly promoted, and there was no ancestral skill at all, otherwise, at this time, several officials should have jumped out to help intimidate.

Of course, this is not difficult for the household official, he can say it himself, and he can directly intimidate the other party.

But the problem is that Fang Xiaoyue's world doesn't kneel at all, everyone is equal, why are you superior to me and want me to kneel?

After descending on many planes, he never knelt down.

Well, it's not that he is arrogant and doesn't know how to advance or retreat, but that there is no need to kneel.

Now a newly appointed household official dares to ask himself to kneel?

This couldn't help but make Fang Xiaoyue think of the commander of the Northern Moon Army, I don't know if this master is doing well in the Netherworld?

Fang Xiaoyue thought about the commander of the Beiyue Army, and the smile on his face fell into the eyes of the housekeeper, and he was considered to despise himself and despise himself.

Well, that's actually the case.

Fang Xiaoyue didn't care about a mere household official, he never thought that he would be loyal to the imperial power and official authority of Pinggui Kingdom.

Xanadu, if you kneel to the imperial power and official authority of Pinggui Kingdom and be loyal, what else is it called Xanadu?

"The old man has hard bones in his knees and can't kneel, why don't you ask Lord Dian for help?"

Fang Xiaoyue replied with a smile, as if she was not at all angered by the words of the householder.

But the housekeeper inexplicably felt a chill in his back, and he had a hunch that if he answered like this, the situation might be very bad.

The guy who can serve as the henchman of the new county commander is not a stupid person after all.

Therefore, he smiled, as if he had never said that sentence: "This is Mr. Zhang Dascoop, the village chief of Taoyuan Valley?" ”

In an instant, the household officials changed from arrogant and domineering to a humble gentleman, which really opened Fang Xiaoyue's eyes.

This can be hard and soft, and I am afraid that it can be like a fish in water anywhere.

"The little old man is Zhang Da Huang, I don't know what happened to this Lord Dian coming to my Taoyuan Valley?"

When Fang Xiaoyue was talking, she was also muttering in her heart, the situation in Taoyuan Valley was just like this to the county government? Looks like there's something wrong with the valley.

Of course, he didn't want to say too much to this guy, so he went straight to the point.

The house official first praised the new county magistrate's care for the villagers of Taoyuan Valley, and then said that he came to register his household registration in the valley this time.

Due to the ravages of the Beiyue Bandit Army, the county residents did not survive three or four out of ten, and even the household registration documents in the county government were burned and emptied, so the whole county had to register and make a register to facilitate the imperial court to allocate money and grain for disaster relief.

The words of the household official were not leaky, but the villagers behind Fang Xiaoyue were happy.

The imperial court actually wants to allocate money and grain for disaster relief?

That's a great thing!

There are even villagers who want to go back at this time, thinking that if they don't go back, the fields will be barren.

Fang Xiaoyue couldn't help but sigh a little, she was hasty.

He didn't expect that this housekeeper would be able to say so.

He absolutely did not believe the words of the imperial court allocating money and grain for disaster relief.

When he went to assassinate the commander of the Beiyue Army before, he saw along the way that almost half of the Pinggui Kingdom was affected by the war, and there was a barren area everywhere, among which the vicinity of the Pinggui Kingdom was the most tragic.

The imperial court allocated money and grain for disaster relief, Fang Xiaoyue believed it, but this money and grain are probably allocated to the county near the national capital first, and places like Subei County that are close to Beiyue Country, let alone allocate money and grain, it is fortunate that it is not collected again.

Those big masters of Pinggui Country are not stupid, although they have driven the Beiyue Army out now, but places like Subei County are still under the threat of the Beiyue Army.

Isn't allocating money and grain for disaster relief to send food to the Beiyue Army?

Besides, after this war, it is a question of how much food Pinggui can come up with.

According to Zhang Dahui's memory, there has never been a disaster relief incident in this Pinggui country.

But the problem is that the villagers in Taoyuan Valley believe it.

Here's the trouble!

In view of the mentality of the villagers in Taoyuan Valley, Fang Xiaoyue did not directly clash with this housekeeper, but only used a blow of Tai Chi to push the matter down.
