Chapter 111: Arson

It was only two days after the library opened, and the reputation spread far away, and the readers in the surrounding villages and some farther cities knew that Mocheng had opened an almost free bookstore, and for a while, countless readers poured into Mocheng just to read books in the library.

The library is popular every day, there are no empty seats, there is no place, some scholars directly carry a book, and sit on the ground in a random corner to read.

Yang Si waited in the library every day, always on the lookout for someone to make trouble, Ye Lanming also often wandered around the library a few days ago, she looked at so many readers and smiled in her heart.

People are coming? Can you still be allowed to go?

After receiving the favor of Mocheng, just wait to become a Mocheng person!

As long as there is this library, she believes that in time, there will definitely be more and more readers in Mocheng, and Mocheng will never be a barren city again!

A month later, the assessment of the government was carried out on time, Ye Lanming looked at the number of applicants in advance, and to her surprise, there were more people who signed up than she imagined.

"This is a rare opportunity for people at the bottom to change their fate, so they will fight for it as much as possible." Jiang Shijun explained.

Moreover, this assessment does not involve the four books and five classics that need to be studied for many years, focusing on practical knowledge, which is a rare opportunity for them!

"It seems that the wrong thing is right." Ye Lanming chuckled and said, she put down the roster in her hand, and tapped her index finger lightly on the table: "There must be people who are restless during this time, be careful." ”

"It's all arranged." Jiang Shijun said unhurriedly.

"It's great."

Ye Lanming said to Jiang Shijun with a smile, taking advantage of his inattention, he pulled him hard and kissed him lightly on the cheek.

Rumble!

It seemed that fireworks exploded in his head, and Jiang Shijun was stunned for a moment, his face flushed.

"This ...... in broad daylight"

He stayed for a while and said in a whisper.

"You don't like it? If you don't like me, you won't do it next time. Ye Lanming interrupted him in time and deliberately said so.

"No, I like it."

Jiang Shijun subconsciously retorted, and then saw her narrow gaze, he pursed his lips and looked at her with some grievances.

"Hahaha!"

Ye Lanming laughed happily, and Jiang Shijun, who was laughing, complained even more.

"Okay, I'm not going to tease you." Ye Lanming patted the back of his hand soothingly.

"Let's go and prepare for the exam, this is the first exam in Mocheng, you can't mess it up, if you dare to fish in troubled waters and cause trouble, you can take it directly." Ye Lanming said murderous.

At that time, more than a dozen examination rooms started on time, and there were heavy guards outside each examination room, and there were two inspectors patrolling back and forth in the examination room.

The two-day exam time was fleeting, and after the last exam and stepping out of the door of the government, many people were a little distracted, looking at the sign of the government in a daze.

This is their chance to change their fate.

After the exam, Ye Lanming entered a state of being busy again, and this time he was busy correcting the test papers. She directly asked Manager He for 20 people to correct these test papers in batches.

To be fair, each paper is marked by two people, and the average of the marks of the two people is taken and then handed over to a third person for review, and all three people are responsible for the paper for life.

In such a strict and high-pressure state, all the people who wanted to do something have stopped their minds, and the 20 people have also honestly corrected, and they dare not have any selfishness.

After ten days of overtime, all the test papers were corrected, the first batch of officials were selected, and the list was presented to Steward He and General Mo Lao before it was announced.

On this day, the public notice list outside the government was surrounded by people, and at a glance it was densely packed with heads, and when the errand officer pasted the selected list, the crowd erupted in surprise.

"My son is hit, my son is hit!"

"Damn, what kind of dog luck did Xiao Chen take, he actually won the list!"

"There's my boss's name on it!"

……

There was an endless stream of similar voices, everyone was very excited, and the vast majority of the people on the list were ordinary people, which gave them hope!

In Li's cloth shop, Li Hong is settling accounts, just a brush that pauses from time to time, and the posture of looking up shows that his mind is not calm.

"Shopkeeper! Shopkeeper! You've hit! You've been selected! ”

Finally, the excited voice broke his uneasy mind, and he stood up and forcibly suppressed his excitement: "What you said is true? ”

"I can see it clearly, you have been selected into the household slot division, congratulations to the shopkeeper, congratulations to the shopkeeper!" Xiao Er said very excitedly.

Li Hong was stunned for a moment, then laughed, and walked around the store several times in a row.

"I was hit, I was hit! I can work in the government! ”

After a long time, he stopped, and looked at Xiao Er with blazing eyes: "Everyone's hair is one or two silver." ”

"Thank you, shopkeeper! Thank you, shopkeeper! Xiao Er was overjoyed, and a smile bloomed on his face!

Back behind the counter, Li Hong calmed down, thinking in his heart about selling the store out, and doing his homework in advance to strive to stay in the government for a long time.

He didn't expect that he could really be selected, and he just had the attitude of trying it out, this cloth shop was in business from his parents' generation, and he knew how to count since he was a child, and after reading the textbooks issued by the government, he found that most of them he would, so he decided to give it a try.

As a result, God gave him a surprise, and his old Li family will soon be able to glorify their ancestors!

People like Li Hong abounded, and the entire Mocheng was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.

Soon, this group of newcomers was put in place, and within a few days, they hit the old people in their original positions!

The new recruits are full of enthusiasm, and the speed of handling official affairs is very fast, and they are eager to handle more than 20 official duties a day, and their efficiency is very good, which makes those old people feel a sense of crisis.

Grass! One by one, the people who will be kicked out in the future are not them! At this time, they couldn't be lazy, they worked hard one by one, and the work efficiency of the government office was unprecedentedly improved, and some old cases that had accumulated for many years began to be solved gradually.

As a result, there are more and more people who resent Ye Lanming, if she hadn't stirred up the reform in the back, would they have used to work like a scalper in the field?

Ye Lanming, who is promoting all this behind the scenes, is very satisfied, the servants of the people should serve the people diligently!

What's more, the treatment she gave to these officials has risen, and there is no need to think about the difficulties in life at all, it can be said that there is no need to worry about food and clothing, what is there to be dissatisfied with?

If you're not satisfied, you can give up your position, don't occupy the pit and don't, you don't want to do it, some people want to do it.

In this way, all the voices of complaining were suppressed by her, and a bunch of people were cleansed by iron-blooded means, making the entire government officials tremble, for fear that they would be in trouble.

Days have passed in the blink of an eye, and it seems that everything is on track, leaving only people with bad intentions lurking in the shadows.

It was night, there was no one on the dark road, only occasionally passing by the patrolling officials, the Ye Mansion loomed in the dark, everyone was asleep, and there was silence.

The sneaky figure gradually approached the back door of the Ye Mansion through the cover of darkness, and quickly climbed over the wall, a little spark was particularly obvious in the dark night, lighting the firewood placed in the back kitchen, and the figure quickly fled the scene.

The winter air was exceptionally dry, and the sparks quickly turned into a fire, gradually engulfing the entire kitchen and spreading into the distance.
