Detailed but not complicated, corporal punishments such as bracketing, slashing, slashing, gong, and dabi were all abandoned and replaced by unpaid labor and flogging or whipping.
Wang Rong did not designate the law to make the residents of the city blame at every turn, but to establish a complete set of order and prevent this place from becoming a place outside the law.
After dealing with the laws of the city, Wang Rong specially found Li Qian and said: "The population of the city is still too small, I plan to recruit displaced people from other parts of the Yongguo country in Guanzhong, but this kind of thing can't come with great fanfare, but it must come quietly and slowly." I will also let the three cities of Linhe, Woye and Linrong also recruit displaced people, and when the time comes, the city will be hidden in this matter, and the old man must remember one thing, those who are malicious, unruly, and do not abide by the rule of law will not be wanted. Once discovered, it will be disposed of by the law of the city. ”
Li Qian bowed and saluted to show that he understood, and then he asked: "Captain, the old man is already old, and there is no young man who can handle things quickly, you see, when will you choose a new county order, so that my old bones can enjoy the blessings." ”
Now in addition to Li Qian as the county commander, Wang Rong's personal soldiers, Liu Jian served as the county commander, his cousin Wang Zheng served as the county lieutenant, Bai Zheng served as the chief official Peng, and Baili Zhao served as the prison Peng. Li Qian's son Li Kai served as Lingshi, and Li Qian's in-law Yu Kezhi, a son of the Yu family, served as Wen Wuwu. The remaining stables, warehouse officials, prison guards and other petty officials were distributed by Wang Rong to the more prestigious people in the city.
Being able to have prestige in this era means that you have the ability to do things, and as for whether it is a corrupt official, a mediocre official, a dull official or a good official, you need to observe it slowly.
After Wang Rong finished dealing with the affairs of the city, he left the city and returned to the city. Now Wang Mao, the chief of the guard, has completely become the chief of the light pole, and he has a soldier under him.
After Wang Rong returned to Fertile City with him, he began to recruit soldiers. More than 5,000 people were directly recruited from Fertile City, and more than 500 people were directly recruited by Wumo and Sledgehammer, and Wumo took the lead with the second team and more than 300 people to rush to Jijiao, taking this important stronghold as his own. The sledgehammer is busy working in Woye City for a while, if he talks about the army, then he is holding a handle, but he really can't do this civil affairs, isn't this equivalent to letting Li Kui be the county commander.
When Wang Rong saw the sledgehammer, he was directly protected by this strong man's thighs, and he cried for a while, he looked at this black man with black lines, what is the situation? Macho man is shy, or macho man is wronged? Should he say that macho men don't cry or something?
When Wang Rong finished pacifying the sledgehammer, he directly took over the civil affairs of Woye City, and there was a sledgehammer of Yuan Tiangang in this military area, so there was nothing to worry about. But in the area of civil affairs, he is also worried, if he wants to talk about the general direction or something, then he knows, just two words, food and money. But when it comes to details, he can't do it, after all, he has never been trained at the grassroots level of the government.
"Du Lieutenant, there are really not many people in this fertile city who can be said to be talents, most of them are small officials, but there is one person, I heard that it is very powerful." Sledgehammer's stay in Fertile City is not short, unlike Wang Rong, who wandered around, and was almost awarded a certificate of "Shuofang No. 1 Street Slipper" by Qin Ke.
"How powerful?" Wang Rong asked curiously, he is now short of talents, not a light shortage, not a serious shortage, but a serious shortage of talents.
Sledgehammer told the story of this person: "This person was born in Shuofang City, named Chu Kun, originally served as the county magistrate in Shuofang City, specializing in helping the county order deal with affairs, but because he was upright, in dealing with a civil dispute, the county order was offended, and he was designed by the Shuofang county order, and was removed from the name, and even Shuofang City could not go back."
Later, Shuofang County was directly managed by the Northern Army, and Shuofang City County was found to be greedy for military supplies and executed. The new Shuofang county commander recruited him several times, but he did not agree. Now he lives in the Fertile City. ”
As mentioned earlier, the county system of Shuofang County has collapsed, except for Shuofang City. The county system of Yunzhong County and Linwo County, as well as the county system of Shuofang City, were intact and belonged to the direct management of the Xuxi Imperial Court, which was a kind of restriction on the Northern Army.
When Wang Bian heard this, he was very interested in this Chu Kun, the chief official Peng was nominally in charge of the advance and retreat of the group of officials, but in fact he was equivalent to the staff of the county order, but this was a kind of staffed official, and the government directly provided food and salary.
Wang Rong asked directly: "Where does he live now?" You take me there, oh, by the way, you can't go empty-handed, take us with Lu Yan captured in Xincheng. ”
Wang Wei directly put Lu Yan into a delicate carved wooden box, this Lu Yan is produced in Yi country, has a tender texture, protective ink, color and luster, magnificent and colorful. The origin of the carved wooden box is unknown, but it is very beautiful.
Due to the late construction of the city, the city is modeled on the shape of the city, with the middle street of the wild field as the central axis, divided into two halves of the east and west, and the horizontal horizontal street of the wild field is divided into two halves of the north and south, thus forming four areas.
In order to avoid the imperial city, the county government was arranged to occupy a square in the northwest, and the squares in the northeast were inhabited by people with a little wealth in the fertile city, and correspondingly in the southwest was where various families of hundreds of workers lived, and the southeast was where farmers and herdsmen lived.
Unlike Wang Rong's idea, Chu Kun's home is not in the northeast workshop, but in the southeast workshop, and it is very centered, and the distance from the surrounding workshops to his home is about the same. Like the courtyards of other farmers and herdsmen, the courtyard is surrounded by a low and thick wooden fence, except that it is a two-entry courtyard.
There was no reception, and the gate was open. As he passed by the gatehouse, Wang Bian noticed that there were many farmers and herdsmen sitting on chairs waiting. And walking inside, it is the main hall, a middle-aged man in his forties in the hall is bowing his head and writing something, and there are two peasants standing in the hall, where you are arguing with a word and I am arguing with a word. A young man in his twenties standing beside him didn't dare to scold Wang Rong and the three of them, so he had to signal the three of them to retreat with his eyes.
Wang Rong looked at each other and said with pity in his heart: "At a young age, your face spasms?" Hey, that's a shame. ”
Seeing that the three of them did not retreat at all, the young man was also helpless, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he had to let the three of them sit on the left seat in the lobby by themselves.
The point of dispute between the two peasants is very familiar to Wang Rong, that is, the ownership of a cow. Farmer A sued Farmer B for stealing his own farming cattle, and Farmer B countersued Farmer A for coveting his farming cattle, which was a false accusation.
Wang Rong looked at the two peasants silently, you greet my ancestors for the nineteenth generation, I greet the women of your family, and there are several words about the ownership of ploughing cattle. He could see that the two families had a grudge for a long time, and this time it was just an outbreak, but fortunately, they were barely law-abiding and did not cause a lawsuit.
After the middle-aged man finished recording, he looked at the two peasants who were arguing below, coughed twice, and the young man reprimanded loudly: "It's all quiet! Father has something to say! ”
The two peasants immediately stopped arguing with red faces, and Wang Bian raised his eyebrows, this Chu Kun's prestige among the peasants is very high.
I only heard Chu Kun say slowly: "Since the two of them have their own opinions on the ownership of this ploughing cow, how about doing this, and dividing this cow into two halves, one person and one half?" ”
Farmer A listened to Chu Kun's words, and suddenly became anxious: "Oh, my master Chu, what a precious thing this ploughing ox is, my whole family is counting on it to plow the land and farm." Now our fertile field has become the garrison of the Western Governor's Mansion, but the Western Governor's Mansion has requested, how much wasteland is counted as his own, if you kill the ploughing cattle, how can my whole family live. ”
On the contrary, farmer B was not so distressed about ploughing cattle, he felt that Chu Kun's judgment was reasonable.
"Reasonable bird feathers!" Wang Rong smiled faintly, the farmer regards the ploughing cattle as life, and the performance of farmer A is very reasonable, on the other hand, farmer B is self-defeating.
"Be bold, dare to be clever in front of me." Chu Kun's face changed immediately, and he loudly scolded Farmer B, if he was a county magistrate, such idle, stealing chickens and dogs would have been arrested a long time ago, why would he be embarrassed in front of him.
Eventually, the cattle returned to Farmer A, who left in disgrace.
Wang Wei glanced at Wang Mao, and Wang Mao understood and hurriedly followed Farmer B. Then there was applause in the lobby.
Chu Kun looked at Wang Rong, who was applauding, with an indifferent face, and asked in a deep voice: "Dare to ask who Your Excellency is, looking at Your Excellency's dress, it shouldn't be that you are here to appeal." ”
Wang Rong didn't care about his coldness, and said with a smile: "I have long heard that the former Shuofang County magistrate Peng Chu Kun is calm and practical, and he is clear and decisive, and I saw it today, and sure enough, the kid has seen Mr. Chu." ”
As the saying goes, don't stretch out your hand and don't hit people with smiling faces, since Wang Biao has such a good attitude, Chu Kun is not good at treating him coldly, and said with a smile indifferently: "A little thin name, let you see a smile." Dare to ask what Xiaoyou has been doing in recent days? ”
Wang Rong knows this kind of talented person, and you say in a roundabout way, obviously looking down on others, so he said directly: "The kid came today to hire Mr. Shi as the governor of the Western Governor's Mansion and the county magistrate of Woye County. ”
Chu Kun listened to Wang Rong's words, his expression changed unpredictably, he had heard that the new Western Governor was a young man, but this one in front of him could not be. No matter how young you are, you can't be so young, just an adult.
The young man standing next to Chu Kun said sarcastically: "Ha, is there no one in your Western Governor's Mansion?" The Shuofang County Commander personally came to invite my father, but my father didn't agree, and your Western Governor's Mansion sent you a small soldier to invite my father, if the Western Governor came in person, my father would still consider it. ”
Sledgehammer was very angry at the young man's words, he stepped forward, the huge body brought murderous aura and power to Chu Kun's father and son, Chu Kun's face was pale, his eyes were sharp, and his left hand involuntarily pressed on the hilt of the sword on his waist, and the young man was horrified by the murderous aura on the sledgehammer's face.
When the two of them were stunned, they only heard the sound of the sledgehammer urn and said angrily: "Bold! How dare you be disrespectful to the captain! Captain, please order these two people to clean up, what kind of celebrity?! Dogs look down on people! ”
Wang Rong smiled indifferently: "Forget it, whoever made me already in the position of lieutenant at a young age, it is not strange if I don't know." It is to introduce himself, the boy is the governor of the western region, in charge of the military and political affairs of the three cities and two fortresses of Linhe, Woye, Linrong, Rongrong, and Jiyu, and now I respectfully invite Mr. Chu to serve as the governor of the western governor's mansion. ”
After Wang Wei finished speaking, he put the wooden box containing Lu Yan on Chu Kun's table.
