Chapter 167

In the various squares of Lulong County, it is gradually becoming lively.

Zhou Xingzheng hunched his back and sat in the wide mezzanine on the right side of the hall of the palace.

The original mats in this mezzanine room have all been emptied, and rows of tall tables and chairs have been placed.

According to the five Cao divisions, each Cao Peng, Shi and the secretary who handles the documents sit separately.

At this time, I was busy working at my desk.

At first, it was not that no one reacted, and it was indecent to sit with their feet down, but when one job was assigned, no one had the energy to complain about these trivial things.

On the contrary, Cao Peng Shuzuo began to feel the benefits of tall tables and chairs.

At least the taste of backache and leg numbness can be alleviated a lot when working overtime.

Zhou Xing sighed, with two huge blue and black circles under his eyes, he lifted the strong tea on the table and poured it.

In the specially made large tea jar, the tea leaves float and heavily.

I don't know if it's his delusion, since the little lady moved to Lu Long, he doesn't treat them as human beings anymore.

The chief officials and small officials all stay in the county temple on weekdays, and they will only go home on holidays.

Every day, I have to work almost until the middle of the month before I can go back to rest.

When Zhou Xing left Lulong, he was fortunate to visit the chicken farm in Guzhu Manor, where the chicken coops were placed in rows.

"Zhou Xiancheng, I'll add you tea."

An official slave standing in the corner of the room immediately took out a brass kettle from the hut separated from the mezzanine, and diligently filled the teacup on the desk for Zhou Xing.

Although the physique of people in this era is better than Gongsun Yan's cognition, they are worried that these long and small officials will not be able to cope with overtime.

After Gongsun Yan came to Lulong, he not only changed the two meals a day in the county temple to three meals a day, but also added a pantry after the hall.

There are officials and slaves on duty at all times, and hot tea and snacks are available at any time.

And the county temple kitchen also has a night cook, you can order supper.

As long as you are willing to work overtime.

Even though Gongsun Yan has the help of building modules, he can save a lot of planning things.

However, if the Lulongse project is to be completed to the standard before the autumn harvest, it will take a lot of thought.

As a border area, Lulongsai has always been a place for prisoners to be distributed, and later there were Guzhuzhuang Zhongzhong and their families.

Then there are the people who participate in the fundraising in Lulong City, which can be described as a mixture.

It will not be easy to reconcile the food, drink, and shelter of these people, and to remove all obstacles to instability before the great war is approaching.

After Gongsun Yan came to the county, Zhao Yun personally led the troops to Lulong Yao Pass to sit in the town.

The cunning and rebellious heads hanging on the pass are renewed day by day.

finally exchanged killing for quietness.

The rest, including the distribution of grain and grass, the residence of laborers, the temporary household registration and resettlement of recruiters, and so on.

In each place, the chief officials and small officials in these government offices need to work.

"Oh, thank you." Zhou Xing subconsciously thanked him and handed over the big teapot in his hand.

It wasn't until the hot water was filled that he woke up from a dream.

No, tomorrow he will rest, he has just finished drinking the residual tea and went back to rest.

Zhou Xing looked at the teapot that was full of tea again, and hesitated.

Otherwise, check the roster submitted by the officials again?

Zhou Xing looked at the stack of paper documents placed in the upper right corner of the table again.

Now Caihou paper in the government has completely replaced the bamboo slips, and even because of the establishment of the new chamber of commerce in the government, this kind of paper has gradually appeared on the desks of some people.

When he was in Guzhu, Zhou Xing had seen this kind of light writing instrument, and at that time he thought it was a new thing that the little lady brought back from Lingzhi City.

But when he arrived at Lu Long, he was told that this thing was actually produced in the Lone Bamboo Manor?

And those grains that are completely wrong in quantity and quality!

As Zhou Xing, who knew Guzhu's family background best, no matter how busy and sluggish he was, he also noticed that something was wrong.

However, as Tian Gong, who is in a lonely bamboo, said, there are some things that should be known, and they will be known.

Before you know it, even if you want to go bald, you can't find the answer, so why bother yourself?

Zhou Xing slowly put down the teapot, glanced at the paperwork on the desk again, sighed resignedly, and stretched out his hand to pull out a stack of it.

"Zhou Xiancheng." A furious servant came from outside the door, a piece of paper dancing in his hand.

Seeing this person, Zhou Xing had a toothache.

In the hall, other scholars and officials who were still writing and calculating also turned their backs.

If you want to vote, this young man who walked in deservedly will be elected the most hated person in the Lulong County Temple Office, the first place.

Especially at this time, seeing that the drum of the construction at the door was about to sound, and when it was time to retreat, this person appeared here, and the document waving in his hand was more like a talisman announcing bad news.

"Zhou Xiancheng." The young man rushed in, the sleeves of his robe rolled indecently to his shoulders, revealing two arms, beads of sweat on his forehead.

In the hall, a small official like this should have taken off his shoes and stepped forward, but now that the rules have been almost broken, no one cares about them.

"What's the matter?" Zhou Xing angrily put back the official document in his hand, "Jiang, Shu, Zuo!" ”

Gritting his teeth word by word, he can see the resentment in his chest.

This little official was originally greedy and greedy, which was not a big deal, but since he was transferred to make a book for the little lady because of his meticulous work, he looked a lot more hateful.

Coming to this room is hardly good news.

Jiang Shuzuo, who had been running all the way to the hall, stopped abruptly in front of Zhou Xing's desk.

"Luckily, I caught up!" Jiang Shuzuo's increasingly pale and chubby face showed a sincere smile, "If you have already retired, it will be troublesome." ”

He seemed to realize the malice that permeated the hall because of his words, and the many small officials who glared at him angrily, showed a trace of hesitation on their faces.

"Are you bothering you?" Jiang Shuzuo bowed and said, "This is really Jiang's fault." ”

Although his attitude was good, he did not let the expressions of the people in the hall soften any more.

For several days, this man's state of actively admitting his mistakes and not repenting has numbed everyone's hearts.

"Let's talk about it! What's the matter? Not very impatient, Zhou Xing still sat up straight, lifted the teapot and poured half of the jar, ready to continue working.

If you complain in your heart, you still have to take it seriously.

Jiang Shuzuo smiled and handed over the document with the big seal of the county in his hand.

"The county monarch has an order to clean up and repair the arsenal for new ordnance and materials."

Although Zhao Yun was in Lulongsai, the big seal was handed over to Gongsun Yan before leaving.

There are Zhou Xing inside, and Xia Houlan, who took over the city defense outside, and finally escaped from the complicated government affairs and trained in the big camp.

There is also a Gong Cao Zhang, who holds the county temple defense.

Even if he never appears in front of everyone, everyone has guesses about the identity of the mysterious person who gives orders in the official temple.

There have been dissenting and dissatisfied in private, but there is no evidence, and secondly, it is ......

"By the way, there's one more thing." Jiang Shuzuo took out a list from his sleeve again, "The summer solstice is approaching, and the county monarch intends to distribute two sets of summer shirts and cloth at both ends for the county temple officials. ”

It's not that they're willing to turn a blind eye to the connivance, it's that the person gives too much.
