Chapter 813: The Beginning

When the first steamer of the Manufacturing Bureau was running on the river surface of the Xijiang River, rowing waves on the water surface, attracting thousands of empty alleys, in the county of Qiyun County, there was actually a major event that was quietly happening, but that major event was not in the newspaper under the instruction of Yan Liqiang, so in addition to the local people and officials in Qiyun County, there were not many people outside who knew and paid attention to it, and even Yan Liqiang himself deliberately treated that matter coldly, and did not want to set off too much turmoil for the time being。 And even for the local people and officials in Qiyun County, those who knew about that incident only felt fresh and fun, and felt that it was a whimsical move and attempt by the Guardian Lord, and did not think too deeply.

But for Yan Liqiang, his attention to that incident is ten times more than that of the shipship of the Manufacturing Bureau, because for him, compared to the trial voyage of the first steamship, the truth of that incident can be called groundbreaking and far-reaching, and even the reason why the trial voyage of the first steamship made such a big move, to a certain extent, was deliberately arranged by Yan Liqiang to attract public opinion and the attention of the public, and let that thing go smoothly.

There are not many people who pay attention to that incident, but there are still people who come all the way to Qiyun County, not for the steamer, just to see how that thing is carried out, and the people who come all the way to Qiyun County to see how that thing is carried out are Hua Ruxue and his party.

Like Feng Qinghe and them, Hua Ruxue and his party arrived in Qiyun County as early as July 10, but they did not come to Pingxi City, but went to Jia'an County under Qiyun County.

Jia'an County is one of the fourteen counties under Qiyun County, this county is ranked lower than the fourteen counties in Qiyun County, the population is not large, the economy is not developed, and there is no special output, and those many ordinary counties of the Han Empire, it is not very eye-catching.

In the past two years, Yan Liqiang has successively appointed the chief magistrates of two of the six counties, but there are still four counties where the chief magistrates have been vacant. It's also fun, although the county orders of these four counties have been vacant, but these four counties have been running smoothly in the past two years, taxes or something can be collected as usual, and there are lawsuits and disputes on weekdays, and there are also criminal arrests and yamen in each county to deal with them on their behalf, and grassroots officials such as pavilion chiefs and chiefs in the townships and towns under the four counties can also perform their duties normally, Yan Liqiang did not speak, and the county orders of these four counties have been unattended, and the people in these four counties have gradually become accustomed to it, and the same is true for the people in Jia'an County.

But after Yan Liqiang came back from the imperial capital this time, everything slowly changed, and in May, an official document stamped with the official seal of the Qiyun Governor's Mansion was sent to Jia'an County and posted in the notice of the official government of the county seat of Jia'an County, which made the entire Jia'an County lively all of a sudden.

The official document of the Governor's Office said that the Governor had known that there had been no county order in Jia'an County for a long time, but in this case, everything was still normal in Jia'an County, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and the Inspector was very happy, and the Inspector said, "If there is no official to govern, it must be the meritorious of the villagers", so it is necessary to let the people of all villages, townships and towns in Jia'an County elect and select 100 representatives of the villagers, report to the list, and then go to the Governor's Mansion to give a banquet and reward.

The same official document was also sent to the other three counties, which made the three counties lively all of a sudden, because they only promoted the township sages, so the counties also let the people in the county elect the township sages in accordance with the meaning of Yan Liqiang.

In May, 400 villagers from these four counties were elected to the Governor's Mansion to receive a banquet from the Governor, and each of them received a silver medal in the banquet, and returned to the township, which was inspiring.

It was in June that Yan Liqiang had just won a great victory at Baishiguan and beheaded 50,000 elites of the seven Shatu Divisions, and the second official document stamped with the seal of the Governor's Mansion came.

The general meaning of the official document is that the Governor has noticed that there has been no county order in Jia'an County for a long time, and a county naturally cannot be without a county commander for a long time, but the Inspector did not find a suitable candidate for a while, so he came up with a way to select the county order, all the men whose household registration is in Jia'an County, who are over 20 years old, and have passed the year of the weak crown, whether they are officials or squires, as long as they are recommended by two county sages, can sign up to participate in the selection of the county order of Jia'an County, and how does this selection come about, it is not designated by the Governor's Office, the Governor's Office only confirms the qualifications, and finally who can be the county commander of Jia'an County, it was voted and selected by the township sages elected by the people of Jia'an County.

Such an official document and order came at once, the entire Jia'an County and the other three counties that had not yet had a county order were boiling all of a sudden, and everyone originally thought that this township sage was just a glorious title, where would they have thought that the Governor would actually let the township sage vote for such a major event as the appointment and selection of the county order, and the value of this township sage was suddenly highlighted.

Let the township sages select the county order, which has never happened in the Han Empire or even the entire Silver Continent, but since the official documents of the Governor's Mansion have been issued, it is naturally not a joke, so in the end, although there are still many people who are looking at this matter with the mood of watching the excitement, but taking Jia'an County as an example, after making sure that the official documents of the Governor's Mansion were not wrong, there are still people who take the initiative to stand up and want to eat this crab, anyway, the position of the head of this county, for many people, the temptation is not ordinary, and those people have no chance at all on weekdays, but now since the Governor wants to select officials with ingenuity, then you can naturally have the mentality of giving it a try and fight to see what is going on.

In the entire Jia'an County, most people are holding the excitement and curiosity to treat this matter, but some people took the initiative to jump out, and finally signed up to participate in this unprecedented county order selection, there are three, one of them is Shao Yuanjie, the chief judge of the Jia'an County Criminal Arrest Yamen, the second person is the famous squire Wang Dou of Jia'an County, and the third person is Su Youlun, the director of the Jia'an County Guoshu Museum, these three people are all famous people in Jia'an County, Wang Dou and Su Youlun were also elected as township sages, and participated in the banquet of the Governor's MansionThis time, the selection of the county order of Jia'an County was carried out among the three, and the time for the election of the township sage in Jia'an County was July 11.

......

On the afternoon of July 11, when the bustle on the edge of the river has subsided, the bustle in the Jia'an County Guoshu Museum has just begun, just after lunch, many people in the county seat of Jia'an County have all spontaneously gathered around the county Guoshu Museum, crowding the area around the Guoshu Museum, just waiting for the results of this unique Jia'an County County Order......

Originally, the selection of this county order should be arranged in the county office, but the county government was too small, and it was inconvenient to arrange the venue, and it was inconvenient for more than 100 people to pour in at once, so Shi Changfeng finally decided to arrange this county order selection in the Guoshu Museum in Jia'an County.
