Chapter 349: A handful of snot and a handful of tears, crying a lot
When the chief Niu learned that the county magistrate was coming, he hurried to greet him.
welcomed the county master to his home, and entertained him with good wine and food.
When the county magistrate came, other families began to pretend to be poor again, and every household did not dare to kill chicken and cook meat.
The goose raised by himself has to be rushed to the mountain, so as not to be seen by the county master.
The chickens were put in cages and not allowed to come out.
The county magistrate had heard earlier that Qingniu Town was a good place, and Niu Er said that the crops grew well, so he proposed to go to the fields to have a look.
Chief Niu had no choice but to lead him out and asked, "I don't know which direction the adults are going to go?" ”
Qian Yan thought in his heart that he was still familiar with Niuchengchun, so he asked him to point in the direction, pointed at it casually, and said, "Go to the northwest." ”
Chief Niu took him to Wangjia Village.
The crops have been harvested, and the fields have been planted with seeds, but there is no rain.
After harvesting the crops, the common people are tired and have lost a lot of weight, and they are tanned and not slippery.
They were all in tattered clothes.
Seeing this, Qian Yan thought to himself that this is not as Niu Er said, there is a lot of oil here?
Moreover, Niu Chengchun also watched it at home, and there was really nothing valuable.
When he arrived in Wangjia Village, Qian Yan entered a family at will.
Ask them how they are doing.
The old lady cried to Qian Yan, saying how they were in trouble, and there were so many children in the family that they couldn't support them anymore.
This made Qian Yan very puzzled.
He even suspected that this was arranged in advance by the chief cow.
However, if he enters the door at will, can he Niu Chengchun count which one he enters?
He changed another one, and that one was still not good.
It's just that Qian Yanren is just like his name, and he has drilled into the eyes of money.
He's good at watching.
Although their family does not have much food, the furniture in their house is there, and the doors and windows are also there.
Therefore, from the furniture, doors and windows, he can see that the people of Qingniu Town are still living quite well.
He also decided that there was something wrong with this place.
Their food is probably hidden.
He asked, "Do you have only a little food in your family?" What's that next to that? It's a manhole, right? ”
The family saw that he was discovered by the county magistrate, so they had to take him to see the manhole.
Qian Yan looked at it, and there were not a few bags of grain here.
Curious, he asked, "Why do you put grain in the manholes?" ”
The family said, "I'm afraid of being stolen." ”
"Someone else steals?"
"Yes, but it's too much, there is not much food in the first place, and if people steal it again, our family will starve to death." The family said.
Chief Niu expressed great satisfaction with the family.
Qian Yan still thinks something is weird, but he can't say it well.
The doors and windows of these houses don't look like they're doing this badly.
But when they say it, it seems to be very miserable.
However, because he was blocked on the way to Qingniu Town several times before, he didn't dare to go too far.
After going back with Niu Chengchun, he didn't turn around with him, and said directly:
"Niu Chengchun, this county won't beat around the bush with you.
I'll tell you the truth, the boss already knows that your Qingniu Town doesn't pay enough taxes, so they sent me over to investigate.
Although these farmers are crying poor, the county is not blind, and it can be seen that the life of the people here is still good. ”
As soon as the chief cow heard him open the skylight and speak brightly, he began to cry at him, saying:
"Lord Qian, you are new to the city, and you don't know much about our Qingniu Town.
We people in Qingniu Town are really not having a good time.
It's just a few years before you have to go hungry.
A few years ago, we people here simply couldn't feed themselves.
The population loss is too severe, the running is running, and the starvation is starving.
After Lord Hu came to power, he saw that our place was pitiful and exempted us from some taxes.
Therefore, Lord Qian can still see children on the territory of Qingniu Town.
Otherwise, I'm afraid all the grass will grow in this place. ”
He was crying, snot and tears, crying a lot.
The cow chief recognized that the crying child had milk to eat.
For the sake of the people of Qingniu Town, he went out and cried with his old face, what did it matter?
Qian Yan looked at his performance, just like what Niu Er said, he was used to pretending to be pitiful, so he said: "Chief Niu don't use this trick again, it's useful to Master Hu, but it's useless to me."
Am I not blind? Although the villagers pretend to be poor, the furniture in their homes is all good wood, and the doors and windows are all made well, isn't this evidence?
You're used to acting, so let's skip it. ”
Chief Niu's crying stopped abruptly and said, "My lord, what I said is the truth. ”
"Okay, we're not outsiders, you don't have to do this anymore, and no one will watch it." Qian Yan said.
Niu Chengchun looked at him with some puzzlement.
He has always pretended to be more similar, and his credibility is also very high, what went wrong?
This Qian Yan is still more shrewd than that Master Hu, and it is not easy to fool.
He began to think in his heart how to send him?
Stuff him with some silver, I'm afraid I'll ask for it again next time.
People's greed has no bottom line, especially this Qian Yan, who is as his name suggests, and Qian Yan is Qian Yan.
If he doesn't pay some money, then I'm afraid he won't be able to get it away.
What should I do about this?
He was in a dilemma.
After thinking about it, I felt that the silver still couldn't be given to him.
He wants to represent justice, cut off this unhealthy trend, and never encourage this bad trend.
This time he was given fifty taels, and the next time he came back, he would ask for a hundred taels.
The world is as black as a crow.
There are few honest and honest officials in the world like him Niu Chengchun who serve the country and the people.
He wept again and said, "In that case, then I will tell you the truth."
One year, we had a bumper harvest in Qingniu Town, and the lives of the common people were suddenly better.
Every family also had surplus food, and everyone was afraid that they would be robbed, so they sold some of the grain.
After selling the grain, they reopened the doors and windows of the house.
Everyone is still thinking that they have had a bumper harvest this year, and they will definitely have a bumper harvest next year.
But what, where are the good years every year?
That's a once-in-a-century experience.
After that year, we didn't have such a good year.
But our good name spread.
You say, we must wipe our faces with powder, don't you say?
We can't just hide it, can we?
This is also not conducive to our male baby in Qingniu Town asking for a daughter-in-law.
So everyone said one by one, how good our Qingniu Town is, and how much food can be beaten.
Then who doesn't boast about their hometown, don't you say?
In fact, after that year, the situation of each year can't catch up with that year.
It's all the same as what adults see, anyway, if you say you're hungry, you won't die of hunger, and you won't be able to hold on to eating, that's all.
