The four-wheeled iron guy is certainly not a monster, but a jeep in which officials who have come here from the city to take up their posts. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

There were a total of five people in the car, namely the county magistrate, the deputy county magistrate, the secretary of the county party committee, the agricultural technician and the director of the education bureau.

When the jeep stopped in front of Ouyang's big landlord, people saw that it was a car, and there were people sitting in the car.

All the children who greeted them rushed up to see how the iron-hulled cart ran without a horse.

And the monk of the Youshen Gate knew that he had made a joke, and his face immediately turned red.

After waiting for the five people in the car to get down, the landlord Ouyang saluted and said: "Down is this Baishu County, the patriarch of the Ouyang clan, Ouyang Qingfeng, I wonder if you are the new Shangguan?"

The new secretary of the county party committee and his entourage did not expect that there would be an early greeting in the county seat, and hurriedly said: "Yes, we are new to the Chinese Empire."

My name is Li Bo, and I am the new secretary of the county party committee, and these are Li Hao, the new county magistrate, Zhang Feng, the deputy county magistrate, Liu Dabao, the agricultural technical instructor, and Ma Ming, the director of the education bureau. ”

"It turns out that it is really all the officials, you are tired of traveling and traveling, and I Ouyang Qingfeng welcomes you on behalf of the people of Baishu County, and please go to the house, and the little old man will pick you up. ”

Li Bo and Li Hao smiled after looking at each other, and Li Bo said: "Mr. Ouyang, please forgive me, our Workers' Party has rules and does not take a stitch from the masses.

This banquet is exempt, you are still busy with your own work, and we have to go to the county government to rest and recuperate. ”

Ouyang Qingfeng didn't expect this newcomer Shangguan to be so faceless, so he just smiled awkwardly and said, "It's just some coarse tea and light rice, it's nothing." ”

Casually start to look at other people and ask them to help them speak.

"That's right, sir, our Lord Ouyang is also a piece of heart, not only to catch the wind for you, but also to report to a few people at a single table. Ouyang Qingfeng's eldest son, Ouyang Chuixue, also persuaded at this time.

Li Bo was right when he heard this, he still needed to have a good relationship with the local clan leader when he first arrived.

The Chinese Empire is no longer than it was at the beginning, those big landlords have already fled with military threat, and the remaining small landlords in the countryside, Shang Weiyang really doesn't have the energy to send troops to hard.

In the end, the wisdom of grassroots officials is still needed, so Li Bo didn't intend to excuse himself when he saw this, so he said: "Since Mr. Ouyang is gracious, my colleagues and I thank you here."

Xiao Liu, you park the car at the county office first, and then come over. ”

"I'm here to show Chief Liu the way. The monk from Youshenmen was curious about the jeep and volunteered to show Liu Dabao the way.

In this way, Li Bo and Li Hao and others went to his mansion with Ouyang Qingfeng.

And Liu Dabao drove the little monk of Youshenmen to the county government to park. Then they also went to Ouyang Mansion together.

At the banquet, Ouyang Qingfeng gave Li Bo a meal while introducing the situation in Baishu County.

Baishu County is actually not big, with a radius of one or two hundred miles, and a population of about 200,000 people.

Forty percent of the people are related to the Ouyang clan, and they control sixty percent of the land in the county.

Most of them live in the county seat, about 120,000 people, and 80,000 live in the fields.

According to Ouyang Qingfeng, the economic situation is considered rich, the people have food and drink, they can't go hungry all year round, and they can eat a few catties of meat during the New Year's holidays.

When Li Bo heard this, he knew that this was a typical feudal dynasty county.

Mainly clans, male farmers and women weave, this Ouyang Qingfeng is not bad, the rent is not much, and the Ouyang clan also provides a lot of employment.

However, such a rich county in the eyes of Ouyang Qingfeng is a real poverty in the eyes of Li Bo and others.

In addition to three or two thatched huts, the people have almost no long-term things in two or three acres of thin fields, and they can only eat meat a few times a year.

Listening to Ouyang Qingfeng's words, Li Bo and the others couldn't stop laughing.

Ouyang Qingfeng and Ouyang Chuixue were both a little embarrassed, and they didn't know what a few people were laughing at.

"Old Mr. Ouyang, do you know what the outside world is like now, do you know what the peasants of the Zhili Province of the Huaxia Empire are?" asked Li Bo as he drank his wine.

"Since it is Zhili Province, I'm afraid, I'm afraid it's a little more prosperous than our county. "Ouyang Qingfeng has not been to the royal city of Wu State, although it is prosperous and lively, but the life of the people is not much better than that of Baishu County.

However, since Shangguan asked, he didn't dare to thin Li Bo's face, so he still complimented him.

"Haha, Mr. Ouyang may not know that the farmers in my Zhili Province generally work as tenants for the farm, and one person can farm hundreds of acres, and he only needs to pay 10% of the grain to the state.

Not to mention eating meat during the New Year's holidays, I eat meat almost every day, and now the chairman has called on everyone to eat less meat and exercise more, otherwise it will not be good for cultivation. ”

Ouyang Qingfeng and Ouyang Chuixue were both shocked when they heard this, they couldn't imagine that Zhili Province was already rich.

The common people actually have meat to eat every day, and the state only collects 10% of the rent.

And Ouyang Chuixue obviously has a different focus from his father, his main concern is that sentence, which is not good for cultivation.

Only monks have cultivation, so wouldn't it be that the peasants in Zhili Province are all monks.

The meal was quite harmonious, and after the meal was full, Li Bo and the others were sent back to the county government by Ouyang Qingfeng.

And he was discussing with his son Ouyang Chuixue what these chiefs said today.

"Son, do you think what these officials said today is true or false?

Zhili Province is so rich that even jeeps are running all over the streets, and the people eat meat every day?"

He didn't believe what Li Bo said, at least he wouldn't believe it all after seeing it with his own eyes.

And Ouyang Chuixue's conclusion was completely different, what he thought was that what the dignified imperial officials said must be true.

It is very humiliating to tell a lie and get slapped in the face.

The conversation of Li Bo and others is not so simple, and it is obvious that several of them are well-educated.

Ouyang Chuixue has already made up his mind that he must go to Zhili Province if he has the opportunity, and it is best to go to the new capital Huaxia City to have a look.

"Father Qiqi, I think, you can't be gullible, and you can't disbelieve it, after all, the Chinese Empire is powerful, not only destroying Wu, but also destroying so many countries.

There must be something special about it, the jeep I saw today, there are no horses but can gallop, I don't know how many such strange things there are.

I think it's better for our Ouyang family to obey this Chinese Empire in the future. And the child plans to go to Zhili Province and take a look in person, so as to determine the future of my Ouyang family. ”

"Well, in that case, then you can go, for the sake of the father, settle these officials here first. ”

The next day, Ouyang Fuxue embarked on a journey to Zhili Province, of course, first to the provincial capital of Shanxi Province, where it is said that there can be a quick way to go to Zhili Province.

After discussing all night, Li Bo and the others decided to build the road from the county seat to the city first, after all, this place is too isolated from the world.
