"According to the villain's estimate, this hairy little ghost sees that the yamen is in ruins, and he will definitely have to discuss with you in the end. You think he's a foreigner, who doesn't know the place, and he can't find someone to help repair it. When he has nothing to do, we will give him another step, and then he will be his idle official, and everyone will not interfere with the river water. "The roe deer's name is Liu San, and he is Liu Sinu's personal master, and this person has bad water in his stomach. followed Ouyang in a big circle, and only after arriving at the first light did he come back to report.

Liu Sinu, in her forties, was born with a blessed appearance, and said while teasing the bird in the cage: "There is news from Beijing, saying that this kid has no power at all. But I heard that someone is staring at this, don't do anything to make it bigger. Add some wages to the people of the yamen, and let them follow us with all their hearts. ”

"The little ones know."

"Oh no, sir." A family member hurriedly ran in.

"Palm." Liu Sinu was not angry.

Liu San immediately gave Jia Ding a mouthful: "What's wrong with the master?" ”

Jia Ding covered his mouth and said: "The little one is wrong, it's the county government that is not good." ”

"What's bad?"

"There was a fire."

"Fire?" Liu Sinu was taken aback: "Go and see." ”

When I arrived at the gate of the county office, the gate was closed, and the open flame was no longer visible, only to see some smoke coming out of the study. A large group of ordinary people outside the yamen were pointing fingers at the yamen. Liu Sinu in the distance asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Jia Ding replied: "The little one was just on the street, and suddenly he heard someone shouting that the water was gone, and when he looked back, a lot of smoke floated out of the yamen. There were still some open flames after running closer. The little one immediately went back to tell the master. ”

"It's a great deal." Liu San said: "Master, I'm afraid this kid is not good at stubble." ”

"How?"

"On the yang plane, everyone knows that you are in charge, who knows who he is? Putting a fire like this is to tell everyone that there are county officials in Yangping. ”

Liu Sinu smiled lightly: "Is this called good stubble?" It should be said that children are in a hurry. Who doesn't know he's a county magistrate after staying here for a long time? I can't help but show myself so quickly. Young people are young people, back home. ”

……

The next day, Liu Sinu knew that she was wrong, and a notice was posted at the entrance of the yamen: The study room was on fire, and all the official rosters in the county were burned. Within three days, all the registered officials, county lieutenants, and county officials (Jiankang Prison Cheng) went to the yamen to remake the register. If there is no arrival, it will be treated as unauthorized resignation.

At this time, the two of the leading county lieutenants and county officials, who were government officials, panicked. Do you want to make a book? If you don't make a book, you won't have an identity. Of course, the Liu family eats and drinks well, but if you lose that identity, will people still give you good food and drink? If you want to say that people are county magistrates, as long as the clerical department is handed over, they will have nothing to do with the imperial court, and if they dare to wear the clothes in the yamen in the future, they will be pretending to be officials. A cadre surrounded the two and asked, "What should I do?" What to do? ”

"Let's go ask Master Liu."

Liu Sinu also had a headache, I didn't expect this kid to make such a trick, the three sons couldn't count on it, so they could only discuss it with Liu San, and finally decided, go!

……

"See your Excellency." A cadre of officials and county lieutenants and county officials generally appear in the public court.

Ouyang Zheng put on his official uniform, looked left and right and asked, "Do you think you are handsome?" ”

......After a moment of silence, a servant snorted like a toothache: "Handsome." ”

"Oops, this kid has a vision. What is it called? ”

"Zhang Daniu." The official replied honestly.

"Oping!"

"In!"

"Make him a book, and he is...... Do you want to be a county lieutenant or a county magistrate? Ouyang sat down and asked.

Ou Ping didn't wait for him to speak, took the booklet and read: "The county lieutenant has five times a month, and the county has six times a month." ”

Wow! Everyone was amazed, and the salary, which had always been around the center, directly increased fivefold. Zhang Daniu immediately shouted: "Be a county lieutenant." "There is self-knowledge, the county is a civil official.

"Write it down!" Ouyang smiled and asked again: "Is this official very kind?" ”

"Yes!" Almost all of them answered together.

"This ......" Ouyang Leng was too enthusiastic for a while, right?

Ou Ping reminded on the side: "My lord, there can only be one county prince." ”

Ouyang asked, "What should I do then?" ”

Ou Ping: "Tomorrow?" ”

Ouyang was shocked and said, "Leave the hall, and discuss this matter tomorrow." "Don't dump a group of officials and leave by yourself.

Ou Ping explained: "If you are not a member of the Yamen, you are not allowed to stay in the Yamen unless you have something, so you can do it yourself." With that, he also left. Leaving a crowd of people staring at each other.

Ouyang went to the only clean hut, took off his official uniform and said, "I thought there were more or two people who could use it." ”

"Even if it could be used before, after so many years, it will be useless for a long time." Ou Ping asked, "Young Master, what should I do now?" ”

"Wait for the old Liu family to respond." Ouyang smiled: "Of course, we can't be idle. ”

……

At the end of the next hour, not a single official came. Ouyang knew that the Liu family was ready to fight with him until he was low, so he was not in a hurry and went out for a stroll with Ou Ping. After a few days, and looking through some classics, Ouyang understood the whole picture of Yangping. To say that the Song Dynasty is indeed extraordinary, nearly 20% of the population is the population of the county seat, and there are more than 30 large cities with a population of 300,000. Of course, this one won't be even. (Yes, if there had been no foreign invasion, China would have been able to enter the capitalist society a thousand years earlier.) ）

Yangping is a medium-sized county with a population of 50,000, eight townships and 61 villages, and a rural population of 200,000. During the Huizong era, the population of the Song Dynasty was nearly 50 million. It is not surprising that there are 250,000 people in Yangping. Each township and town has a township service, with a head of household and a head of the elderly, and there is a township soldier like Lixu. The village level generally does not interfere, either a patriarch like Uncle Ouyang is in charge, or some prestigious elders serve as the arbiters of daily chicken feather matters. Regardless of the head of the household and the elderly, they usually don't care about anything. They can't handle it.

Ouyang smiled while looking at the county chronicles: "It seems that a county magistrate is actually quite busy. ”

"Where's the talk, my lord." A young woman in her thirties put the food on the table and said, "I see that adults come to my restaurant every day to drink, how can they be busy." ”

"Jane, let's have a drink together." Ouyang greeted. This Zhen Niang is the proprietress of this Wang family restaurant, her man's surname is Wang, En, it's nonsense. It was already hung in the early years. She and two buddies and a cook supported this restaurant that was neither good nor bad.

"Jane doesn't dare to drink it." Jane smiled and looked to the left.

Ouyang would know, he already knew that there was a tail following him. But he still said: "Xie Zhenniang." ”

"You're welcome, adults come once, quite a lady to come to two tables of guests. It's too late for Lord Zhenniang Xie. Zhen Niang beckoned: "Sit down, sit, I'll go to the kitchen to see why the dishes haven't been served." ”

"There is labor." Ouyang continued to look at the county chronicles: "Dizzy, there are six gambling houses, how did I see five." It's amazing, they are all old gambling houses with a history of more than 20 years. ”

"The young master plans to ......"

"Nonsense, does your young master seem to be a strongman who robs everywhere?" Ouyang Zhengse said: "Don't compete with the people, let's be a clean official." ”
