Chapter 254: First Day in Office (2)
After eating in a hurry, Li Mingren went to the front hall, and Zhao Yunlan continued to clean up at home. A lot of things need to be added, Zhao Yunlan is combing one by one, the county government's house is still a little big, and everyone is busy and feels that there is not enough manpower.
"Hey, I'm starting to miss Grandma Cui." Zhao Yunlan sighed.
In the hall of the county office, all the account books were set up, and Li Mingren picked up the account books without delay and took people to take inventory.
"It's really easy to get sleepy when you're full," Li Mingren muttered to Ye Sheng in a low voice.
Cao Yingfa and Chen Yiqing both noticed the movement here, but they didn't make a noise.
After the inventory was completed, Li Mingren closed the account book and said: "The account is very clear, hard work." "What I thought to myself was, just a little thing, and I don't know if it's a problem.
"Let's go, let's go to the next warehouse." Li Mingren took the lead and walked out, thinking that he would have to check the accounts for the afternoon, but he didn't expect it to be over in an hour and a half.
The affairs in the yamen have almost been taken over, and then I have to go to the city wall to inspect it.
"Cao Xiancheng, the trial of the lawsuit will start tomorrow."
Cao Yingfa: "Yes, my lord. ”
"Is the Teachings there?" Li Mingren looked at the people in the room, and although they all called their names, the image was not particularly profound.
"The lower official is here."
Li Mingren thought for a while before he spoke: "Teaching Fu, on the eighth day of the first lunar month, gather the students of this county to come to the county government for a symposium." ”
"Symposium?" Fu Jiqiu was stunned by this fresh words, and was a little rude for a while, and when he reacted, he found that the new county commander didn't care about his gaffe, and he fixed his mind thinking that this might be the new rule in the capital.
Li Mingren smiled: "Well, it's just to get a brief understanding of everyone's talents, whether you have fame or not, you can come to participate, and all the students sit together to drink tea and talk about learning." You can arrange this matter in the next two days, write a symposium and hand it over to me, and I will proceed after I confirm it. ”
Fu Jiqiu was blinded by this series of words, obviously he heard every word clearly, why is it a little vague when it is connected? Why did this new official burn himself in the first of the three fires! That's not right!
Li Mingren is also very difficult, there has only been a show talent in the past three years, or the result of Lord Qin's efforts, and in the last few years, there is not even a show talent, and the children are also pitiful. Li Mingren took a general look, except for the county school, there is only one White Horse School in the county, and there is no school in the next town or village. So now there is only the student who was admitted to the Xiucai in the county school.
After arranging the matter, Li Mingren took Ye Sheng and a few errands to the city gate. Li Mingren did not ride a horse or take a car, but chose to walk, and after lunch, Li Mingren changed into civilian clothes in order to go out in the afternoon. Shiyang County is not big, and Li Mingren wants to take this opportunity to see the living conditions of the people in Shiyang County.
"How is the day of the market in Shiyang County determined?" Li Mingren asked about the history next to him.
Xie Changwang said: "There is a small set on the fifth day, and the first day of the new month and the fifteenth day are large sets." ”
Li Mingren nodded, today is not a market day, there are not many people on the street, and there are even fewer people setting up stalls. Along the way, the patrol team went back and forth several rounds.
"How is the patrol arranged, and how many people are there?"
Xie Changwang: "Now it's a patrol every half an hour, a total of twelve teams. Class size is 12 students. ”
Li Mingren: "Arrange so many people? ”
Xie Changwang: "Yes. A few days ago, General Cheng went to Cangzhou to increase some troops, and everyone was worried about the turmoil in the border defense, so the prefect ordered to increase the defense in the city. ”
Li Mingren understood, this was because he was worried that Chengping would transfer everyone away. The group went up to the city wall, and the soldiers defending the city cheered up when they saw the new county order.
"The people guarding the city also lined up two more shifts of people to take turns, and the number of people in each shift was larger, so as to ensure that everyone was well rested and full of spirit."
Xie Changwang: "Yes, my lord. Is that to bring in some more people? ”
It was just to let the county government not have so many people idle, so that more people in the row came to guard here, Li Mingren had no choice but to say helplessly: "No, when the roll call was taken in the morning, weren't there so many people in the county office?" I'm optimistic that some of them are all strong men, so let's transfer them from them. ”
Xie Changwang: "Yes, my lord. That ......"
Li Mingren immediately said: "Don't do this or that, arrange things first, I have seen the inspection here is almost done, so I will go back to the county government first." ”
Xie Changwang stood in place and saluted: "Slow down, adult." ”
Li Mingren turned around and took Ye Sheng back to the county office, "It seems that everyone can give me a little face for this new county order." Walking out of the distance, Li Mingren complained to Ye Sheng next to him, and everyone was still very respectful on the surface.
Ye Sheng gestured: "After all, the master is this from Shiyang County!" ”
Li Mingren: "Come on, don't be a sycophant, do things well next, and be cautious in the future." ”
"Yes, sir."
The master and servant returned to the county office, and the time was still early, so Li Mingren called the county clerk to discuss the rectification with the master bookkeeper.
Cao Yingfa: "My lord, the opening of the hall has been arranged. ”
Li Mingren: "Well, are there many backlogs of cases these days?" ”
"There are more than a dozen cases, which is not much."
Li Mingren: "Well, then let's talk about the county government." Master Chen, how many people are there in our county office? ”
Chen Yiqing was a little puzzled, but he still replied honestly: "There are two hundred and ninety-six people in total. ”
"Well, I asked Xie Changwang to mobilize some people to guard the city gate, you draw up a list for him, and quickly implement this matter." Li Mingren just came, and he didn't want to say that there were too many people in the county government, and besides, there was indeed some small turmoil here, so it was really not a good thing to streamline the staff at this time.
Chen Yiqing: "Yes, my lord. ”
Li Mingren saw that the hour was almost the time to go down, and said, "Well, it's hard work for the two of you today, and we'll see you tomorrow." ”
Cao Yingfa looked at Chen Yiqing, turned his head behind his back and went back.
Li Mingren ran out of the lobby quickly, and arrived in the backyard after a while.
"Whoo~Whoo~"
Zhao Yunlan: "Is someone chasing you behind?" ”
Li Mingren shook his head and continued to adjust his breathing and said, "Whew~ No, I just want to come back quickly." ”
Zhao Yunlan pursed her lips and smiled: "You are now a county magistrate, don't do this kind of thing that is easy to attract people's handles." Let's wash our hands and eat first. ”
Li Mingren bowed his hand: "Follow the teachings of the lady." ”
"Come on, you're still in a hurry."
When Li Mingren washed his hands and sat down, the table was already full of dishes.
"Have you packed it all out today?"
Zhao Yunlan: "Well, it's almost cleaned up, there are a few broken rooms, I asked them to find a few old bricks to make up for it." The family didn't have enough people, so I thought about buying some more. Hey~ I want to write a letter to Mama Cui to come and help me. ”
Li Mingren listened to Zhao Yunlan talking to herself, and knew that Zhao Yunlan also had a mess to do.
"It's good for you to buy people's affairs, but Grandma Cui will wait for the matter of coming over, and when we find out the situation here, we will write a letter to the house, and then the mother and children will also come together."
Zhao Yunlan nodded: "There is also a banquet to be held at home, I have to meet those official wives, and you also have to meet the wealthy gentry here." ”
Li Mingren: "Well, this matter is not in a hurry, you arrange the family first, you will be too tired when there are not enough people." ”
