Chapter 195: Spring in Shirachi County (4)
Hearing Chen Qianfan say that he had already paid attention and prepared, Bai Zhixian was overjoyed, and it seemed that today's harvest was destined to be not too small. Moreover, compared to Ye Feng's Bai Ding identity, this is at least a lifter.
In any case, this person is most likely trying to go further on his own.
It is expensive to talk about people, but that is limited to the people. In officialdom, it's just to give some face depending on the situation. They are still one step away from officialdom. And this last step, someone will quickly step into it.
And some people can't get into it for the rest of their lives.
"Then tell me about it."
I felt that I was a little anxious, "Let's discuss and discuss." Speaking of which, those abducted babies are also pitiful. It is also our merit to get help as soon as possible and find our way home. β
Hearing this, Chen Qianfan said: "My lord, the students are from Chenjia Village, where the people are outstanding and the place is the most open. And the village has recently paved a stone road, which is slightly smoother than the official road. In addition, there are many new inns in the village, and the place is the most wide, taking the Chenjia Village Square under construction, it is not a problem to accommodate tens of thousands of people after it is built. At that time, there will be all kinds of food shops in the village, which are very affordable and can provide food and accommodation for people from all over the country. β
"Is that true?" Bai Zhixian felt that he had really picked up a treasure today, and things were going much smoother than he imagined. There is such an unexpected development in a village.
"Students don't dare to deceive adults. Also, my lord, the current Chenjia Village is full of apricot blossoms, and it is extremely beautiful in spring. There are also many fruit trees planted in the village, including apples, plums, pears, oranges and the like. By the way, there's also a wild rhododendron forest. Even the inn was built on the edge of a large lake, and the lake was full of lotus flowers. Speaking of Chen Qianfan's infrastructure, Chen Qianfan suddenly became much more confident.
Also, these are all facts, and it is clear at a glance that there is no need to deceive people, and there is no need to deceive people at all. At that time, once Bai Zhi County has made this plan, it will naturally go and investigate.
However, Bai Zhixian vaguely felt that Chenjiacun did this not only to help him solve his worries, but seemed to have planned it in advance. However, after thinking about it, Bai Zhixian felt that it was unlikely.
No matter how powerful these two people are in front of them, they will never be able to plan such a long-term thing. It's just that such a good Chenjia Village is only used to hold an annual family search conference, isn't it a pity?
Moreover, under his rule, there was such a transcendent existence as Chenjiacun, he didn't know it. If what he said is true, this Chenjia Village is as beautiful as a paradise. All things considered, this is also considered a merit.
What do you think, Bai Zhixian said: "It's a pity that such a good place holds a family search conference once a year, but what are the plans?" I mean, with that foundation, it's possible to go further. β
He vaguely felt that Chen Qianfan should still have a plan. γ
Sure enough, I only heard Chen Qianfan say: "Back to my lord, naturally there is." After all, the National Family Tracing Conference is a major event, and it is not bad to hold it once a year. Therefore, I propose that the adults then suggest to the above that the whole country be divided into several regions, and that each region organize itself, so that people can attend such conventions in their neighborhood. As for Chenjia Village, after the family search meeting, we are ready to develop into a place for people to play. To say that Chenjia Village, there are apricot blossoms to enjoy in spring, lotus flowers in summer, longevity fruits to taste and buy in autumn, and ...... in winter"
"Longevity? Are you saying that the delicious longevity fruit in the restaurant comes from Chenjia Village? At this time, Bai Zhixian was even more surprised.
"Yes, it's from our Chenjia Village. Last year, all the seeds were sold, so that they could save money to build roads, schools, inns, and shops. This year, we plan not to sell a single one, but to give it to each family, and sell whatever they want, but we recommend keeping the seeds and selling them next fall. β
"You mean to sell to customers who come from afar?"
That's what the students mean. Since my lord took office, my Qingshan County has good law and order, I don't close my house at night, I don't leave the road behind, and Chenjia Village is only the first, but it won't be the last. Therefore, our goal is to promote Chenjia Village to the whole country and become the first village in the world. I think it would be very gratifying to come to the Holy Lord, and there is such a rich village in the world. β
What he didn't say was how powerful the country would be if all the villages in the country were so rich.
Although he didn't say it, Bai Zhixian also thought of it, and his whole body couldn't help but feel a thrill, and he immediately came to a conclusion in his heart: his opportunity to soar has come, and his spring has come.
At the same time, I also understood why a small village actually had such stamina and strength, and it turned out that behind it was the immortal fruit that swept the whole city.
Thinking of this, the eyes of Chen Qianfan and Ye Feng were no longer as distant as just now, but became more and more enthusiastic. The three of them talked about the details again, but it turned out that it was lunch time.
This has never happened before.
Bai Zhixian was happy, and said with a rare generosity: "Let's go, go to Liuyunxuan, I'm in for a treat, and we'll continue to talk about these plans." β
The two people in front of them are like treasures, and it is a pity not to continue digging and let them go like this. When he asks for all the information, he will leave the project.
At lunchtime, Liuyunxuan's business was as good as ever.
Since taking the lead last year to launch a series of foods made with longevity fruits, Liuyunxuan has officially established the status of the three major restaurants in Qingshan County, and there is a faint trend of surpassing Lingyunlou and becoming a leading restaurant.
However, this year's longevity fruit harvest is not much, and other restaurants have also divided a lot, plus after listening to Ye Feng's suggestion, he took the initiative to share the recipe with the other two major restaurants, of course, the other party also generously took the silver, and the business was divided a lot.
It's just that they will never be able to make this taste of Liuyun Xuan, because Ye Feng has given many exclusive secret recipes. And Liu Yunxuan is naturally not stupid enough to say anything.
It's just that business is too good and it's a tiring thing, just take those private rooms that are more expensive than one for example, they have been booked for a month. There is also the private room on the top floor, which he has always kept, and he easily refuses to open it, otherwise he would have been booked out.
Boss Wang didn't have to greet customers at the door for a long time, but sat in the hall and meditated on how to create some new dishes. The store is running out of stock of longevity fruits, and how to maximize the price of them is the point. Although he earned several times the sum of the past few years last year, who would think that there was a lot of silver.
As a result, after thinking for a while, I saw the shopkeeper panting and running in, anxious and speechless, only holding his hand on his waist and panting.
To say that Liu Yunxuan has received a lot of big people this year, what is it that makes the shopkeeper so flustered?
The shopkeeper hurriedly said, "Master, the magistrate is here." β
When Boss Wang heard this, he was also a little secretly surprised.
Since the last Immortal Fruit Banquet, this county magistrate has never been to Liuyun Xuan again, but has been to Lingyun Tower a few times during this period. Therefore, it was secretly spread among the people that the magistrate still preferred to go to Lingyun Tower for dinner.
In this regard, Boss Wang was both happy and worried.
I'm glad that the magistrate didn't come, and he was happy. If he comes, he will eat food made of longevity, and he will not dare to take his money. What worries me is that no matter how hard I try, I still can't surpass Lingyun Tower.
Now, the magistrate has actually come to Liuyunxuan, what does this mean? Thinking of this, Boss Wang hurriedly asked, "Have you made a reservation before?" β
"No, there's no news that he's coming today." The shopkeeper replied truthfully.
"Quick, go and get ready, get ready for the private room on the second floor and the private room on the top floor." No one knows whether Bai Zhixian is willing to climb the building, so it is more appropriate to prepare two places.
People like them, who are both literati and officials, are the most difficult to serve, and when they are in a good mood, they have to climb to the top of the building, saying that they are looking at the scenery. But when he was in a bad mood, he didn't even bother to move the first floor, and he couldn't wait to empty the entire restaurant for his use.
Boss Wang went to the kitchen again, called the chef out, and handed him the key to the small kitchen by the way: "Lord Zhixian is coming soon, pick up some dishes that our restaurant is good at and make a few, remember, the amount is not necessarily much, but it must be exquisite." By the way, the magistrate likes to drink, and there are a few jars of my treasure in the kitchen, remember not to take it wrong, and the longevity fruit is also fried on a plate and served together. β
Since the last incident, Boss Wang has strengthened the kitchen, and he is personally in charge of the key to the small kitchen, and he does not open the door easily.
After arranging these, Boss Wang ran to the door to wait, and after a while, he saw Bai Zhixian coming, and to his surprise, he also brought two people with him, one of whom was Ye Feng.
I don't know why, as soon as I saw Ye Feng, Boss Wang's hanging heart suddenly settled down a lot.
After nodding and stammering, he finally welcomed people into Liuyunxuan. Seeing that Bai Zhixian was in a very good mood, Boss Wang said: "I just learned that Lord Zhixian is coming, I have sent someone to prepare the room on the top floor, and please go up." β
If he refuses, it doesn't matter, anyway, the private room on the second floor is ready. Which Bai Zhixian said with a spring breeze on his face: "Today is a good day, suitable for climbing, let's go up." β
He said so, Chen Qianfan and Ye Feng naturally didn't have any opinions, and followed upstairs. Therefore, Boss Wang saw Ye Feng's loveless expression, and suddenly felt a little funny.
This kid is still as lazy as ever and doesn't want to climb the stairs.
When the food came up, he tasted it, and because he was in a good mood, Bai Zhixian praised Liuyunxuan's food for being delicious. This is a surprise compared to Boss Wang, you must know that this county magistrate is notoriously picky, and it is difficult to praise something.
The dishes are still the same as before, but why do you have such blue eyes today?
When he was drunk, Bai Zhixian said: "Is Chen Juren willing to come to the county government to do an errand?" If I wished, I would remember that there was still a shortage of people in the yamen who could transcribe documents. β
When Chen Qianfan finally heard what he wanted to hear, he was suddenly excited, and hurriedly stood up and said, "The student is very happy!" Adult! β
"Okay, I'll come in three days."
Chen Qianfan is now studying in the academy, so naturally he can only find time to go over.
Bai Zhi County naturally knows this, and it will be easy to come to this job, but it is similar to the frequency of once or twice a week.
Nor did he expect anything from him.
However, with this errand, it also means that Chen Qianfan can enter and exit the yamen at will in the future, which is originally a status symbol, not to mention that he can also play a role in advance and learn to deal with some simple affairs with the county ya.
Don't underestimate this errand, not to mention the aura it brings, just learning this item is already very enviable. After the reform, the current scientific examination is becoming more and more pragmatic, and this is the reason why many people want to enter the yamen for "internship".
Seeing that the goal was achieved, Chen Qianfan was more than twice as enthusiastic, toasted frequently, and racked his brains to say some countermeasures, and Bai Zhixian was a lot happier for a while.
This meal lasted for an hour, and when it was finally over, Bai Zhixian rarely let the little guy take the initiative to give the silver, so he took the two of them downstairs, and then asked the little guy to call a carriage to send the two home, and he went home drunk.
On the way back to the village, Chen Qianfan and Ye Feng looked at each other and smiled, both understanding that today's task was completed. Now, Chenjia Village has leapt from an obscure mountain village to a well-known tourist attraction in the whole country, and it is just around the corner.
What's more, Chen Qianfan's wish was also fulfilled, and he entered the yamen to "implement", waiting for the next year's exam. More or less, he is now related to Bai Zhi County.
After returning home, the village chief was also happy when he heard the report of the two, and called the ancestors to bless him. I trotted to the construction site again, and hurriedly told the workers to build with their hearts and try to finish it ahead of schedule.
Listening to Ye Feng's tone, Bai Zhi County would definitely come to inspect it when it was almost built here. In order not to hold his son back, Chen Jifa couldn't wait to stay on the construction site every day to supervise the work.
In this regard, Ye is naturally strongly supportive. How many years she endured and how much she paid, she finally supplied Chen Qianfan. Well, now it's one step away.
Three days later, there was news in the village that Chen Qianfan was going to the county government to do something. Although it is just an "internship", it also means that Chen Qianfan can meet the county officials every day.
As soon as this news came out, the village caused a sensation, and immediately some people went to the village chief's house to compliment him. Ye was very sober and did not get carried away by the compliments, but modestly said that his son was just going to the yamen to work part-time and help with things, and most of the time he was still studying in the academy to prepare for the big exam.
On the same day, Chen Qianfan dressed up and officially went to the county government to report in high spirits and started his internship career.
Because what Ye Feng and Chen Qianfan said was directly related to the future of Baizhi County, after sobering up the next day, Baizhi County immediately went to the county government to start work.
He first found a small official with good writing to be responsible for receiving and registering information according to Ye Feng's suggestion, and then personally wrote a notice, to the effect that today's saints are sympathetic to the suffering of the people, so anyone who has a baby abducted in the family can come to the yamen to register. Once the information is compiled, the government will do everything it can to help find the missing babies.
Of course, if there is a clue, you can also come to register, so as to help the sufferer achieve family reunion as soon as possible.
As soon as this notice came out, it really won the favor of the people.
Bai Zhi County has recently become addicted to cross-dressing and blending in with the people's opinions to listen to public opinions, so when he has nothing to do, he changes into ordinary people's righteous clothes and pretends to go shopping, but he keeps staring at the registration office and listening to the reactions of those people.
Then, a few days later, he wrote a letter with a suggestion on his practice and results, and handed it to the imperial court.
Today's saint surnamed Wang is a rare benevolent monarch, and he is young, so he is more open-minded and easy to accept new things. It's just that today is a little unhappy. Because some people really take him for a fool.
Not only that, but he also had to play dumb and pretend to be fooled by them. Therefore, when he went to the court, he was on fire but it was not good to have a seizure.
At this moment, I saw this letter from Bai Zhi County.
Originally, I thought it was some clichΓ©, and when I asked the problem, I was very serious, but when it came to solving the problem, I brushed it off, and the solution given was not painful, but at first glance, it was refreshing.
In addition to those flattering words and the inherent format, I have to say that this is a very rare piece of music.
In this suggestion, Bai Zhixian first said that he disguised himself to blend in with the people, and learned that 521 babies had been abducted in Qingshan County alone over the years, and this was the data under the condition that he vigorously cracked down on the abduction and trafficking of babies.
According to his side knowledge, it is said that there are more abducted babies in other provinces.
And these families who have lost their children are having a very hard time. Some families have lost their children or even lost their families.
Next, Bai Zhi described his approach in great detail, suggesting that the top priority is to implement Qingshan County's practice across the country, starting with registering all the information of abducted babies. In this regard, the local county government takes the lead, so that the registration can be both detailed and complete, and no one is left out.
As for what to do next, Bai Zhixian politely said that he was still thinking of a way, and as soon as he thought of a way, he would immediately write it into a fold and send it to the imperial court.
"Good, good, this practice is worth promoting." Seeing the highlights, the Son of Heaven couldn't help but nod his head angrily.
The ministers were just silent because of the emperor's unhappiness, and they all liked to be careful, for fear that their small actions would attract the emperor's dissatisfaction. Sometimes even if you don't have any fault, he wants to punish you, and that's what you have.
Therefore, at first glance, when he heard that the emperor was so happy and did not hesitate to praise him, the ministers thought that the emperor was talking back. However, after careful observation, I found that this was not a reverse story at all, but it was really happy and praised.
So they became curious again, wondering who was so good at patting sycophants, and actually patted the emperor so comfortably.
It's just that before they could ask, the emperor said: "Li Shangshu, let me ask you, do you know how many abducted babies there are in the country now?" β
Li Jingwei, the head of the household, was pretending to sleep, but his eyes were wide open. This is not to blame him, it is really that this emperor is too diligent, and he asks them to come to the morning court every day before dawn. The housing prices in the capital were high, and they couldn't encroach on them, so they did their best to buy a house near the dynasty.
But even so, it takes a lot of time to go back and forth, and some live far away and are even worse, and they have to get up in the middle of the night.
In this way, how can you wake up and not yawn for days, it is already to save face.
Seeing this, the person next to him hurriedly touched him.
Li Jingwei immediately woke up, and whispered the emperor's question through the person next to him, and then he was a little thoughtful: "This, this Weichen really doesn't know." But it doesn't matter, Weichen will go down to count and report it in a few days. β
He wondered why His Majesty had suddenly asked this question. However, this Huang Shang has always had some ideas, and it is unknown if there must have been a countermeasure.
There is a deep mind is also completely relieved, it seems that His Majesty's happiness just now should be related to this issue. Although it is difficult to sort out these missing persons, it does not touch any interests. On the contrary, if you can take the lead in doing something, you can win some fame and opportunities.
Sure enough, the emperor said: "Li Shangshu don't worry, someone is already helping you with this." Not only that, but they even have a way to think of it for you. But I don't blame you for this, there are some things that I didn't think of for a while. In this way, you draft a document in the name of the Ministry of Households, which requires local officials to take immediate action, and the government will come forward to register the local missing persons, focusing on the information of abducted babies. β
Li Shangshu hurriedly said: "Obey!" The minister did it immediately. β
After thinking about it, the emperor said again: "In this way, the officials in other places have no experience, and even if they are registered, they don't know what to do." In this way, you add one more and ask them to register the information first. After the information is registered, all will be sent to Qingshan County, and they will handle the follow-up work, and there must be no mistakes. β
finally got to the next court, and everyone was empty and hungry. However, no matter how hungry they are, everyone is discussing the same topic, that is, the magistrate of Qingshan County is afraid that he is about to soar.
But this man is smart. Over the years, they have seen a lot of people climbing up beside them. However, this matter has nothing to do with anyone, and it has done a good job of benefiting the country and the people.
Except, of course, Li Jingwei.
However, that person is just a small magistrate, and even if he is promoted, it is limited. I'm afraid that this person is a scheming person, if he has some background, he can be promoted to the capital, even if the level is much lower than Li Jingwei, but in the end, it is the emperor's favorite.
Therefore, everyone had breakfast and discussed while praying for Li Jingwei. Those who know the inside story have long ceased to be surprised. If nothing else, he will have a terrible deputy.
Within three days, Bai Zhi County received a reply from the imperial court.
In his reply, he vigorously affirmed his merits and praised him for his love for the people like a son. At the same time, he took the initiative to mention that after the registration of the information of the abducted babies in each province is completed, all the information will be collected to him.
For such a result, Bai Zhi County was a little surprised.
According to his plan, he waited for the provinces to complete the statistics, and he revised a letter to inform the suggestion. How do you know that the emperor is in place in one step, which means that he has one less chance to show his merits.
But after thinking about it, I immediately began to rejoice again. As soon as the information from all over the country is sent, he can write a summary information and report it to the imperial court, and it is not the same that he can show his face.
Thinking of this, I became happier and more diligent in my work. Maybe it's because of his good mood, Bai Zhi County does everything very smoothly, and even when he tries the case, he is very objective and fair. Under Chen Qianfan's reminder, he even deliberately favored the private side.
For a while, the official prestige and reputation have reached a new height.
Master Gu was also very happy when he learned the news, he sent someone to inquire again, and found that this matter only had benefits and no negative effects, and almost did not offend anyone, so he put his mind at ease.
But in my heart, I thought about how to add fuel to the fire.
This kind of thing, it still needs to be added to the fire at a critical moment.
