Chapter 312: The Cunning Household
In the county office, Zhou Yang sat on the main seat, and the civil and military officials stood and gathered one after another, and it was another morning.
"Report on the situation of your household......" Zhou Yang asked in a deep voice.
There was a depressing atmosphere around the entire county office, and they came together in the morning, but in the afternoon, some people disappeared directly.
The sassy bodies of the ministers in the past, as well as the confident demeanor and the yearning for lofty ambitions, have disappeared in this county government.
They had never been so tired before, and although they had been doing it once a day before, they were not so hasty and flustered.
Zhou Yang looked down on the officials, their faces had different expressions, sometimes raising their heads and sometimes lowering their heads, Zhou Yang could see at a glance that this was a sign of their discouragement.
Most of them should have an inexplicable panic in their hearts, and this panic is also because they accepted bribes from the Minister of Households.
Since they accepted the bribe, it shows that they are on the same front and on the same boat, and they are on the opposite side of Zhou Yang.
But Zhou Yang is the highest person in the entire copper city, can they not be worried?
"Return, Lord Zhenshou, more than 700 acres of more than 1,000 acres have been distributed, seedlings and seeds have been taken away, and the people's enthusiasm is great!" Tobe arched his hand and said.
There were originally more than 1,000 acres of land in Tongcheng, but the cliffs were continuous, and almost more than 400 acres of land could not be cultivated.
Therefore, what the minister of the household said is very reasonable, almost more than 700 acres of land have been successfully distributed, so it can only show that his efficiency is very fast.
And it's done very well.
As long as he said so, even if Zhou Yang didn't reward him, then he shouldn't scold himself, let alone do anything to himself.
But what his household minister didn't know was that Zhou Yang had personally gone down to see the situation.
The Minister of the Ministry of Household had never been in the field, and to put it bluntly, he only saw the file records, and did not ask about the world at all, and he had contact with himself outside Li Yuanwai.
Then the Minister of Household Affairs will only say this.
Zhou Yang squinted his eyes and looked at the household department, how could what the household minister said was different from what he saw, what he saw was obviously almost a hundred acres of wasteland, and those people were not ready to plant it at all.
It has not been cultivated.
The corners of Zhou Yang's mouth raised in doubt: "You said that the people's enthusiasm is very strong, but what is the basis for it, if so...... Tell me about it? ”
Zhou Yang glanced at it, waiting for this household to say what kind of reason.
"This ......" the Minister of Household lowered his head and didn't know what to say, the distribution of land and the distribution of seeds and seedlings can prove it, how else can he prove it......
Apparently he also understood at this time that he himself had entered a misunderstanding, a blind spot.
Zhou Yang knew what he didn't know.
Could it be Li Yuanwai!
The Minister of Households' heart trembled, if it was Li Yuanwai, it should not be like this.
They have cooperated with each other so many times, and Li Yuanwai may not sell himself under normal circumstances......
The Minister of Household was a little nervous at this time, how did he know that Zhou Yang had no evidence at all that he was secretly communicating with Li Yuan.
Therefore, Zhou Yang's invisible self-confidence directly made the Minister of Household feel worried.
Zhou Yang looked at the minister of the household department who bowed his head and smiled, and then told what he saw yesterday.
"Yesterday...... I'll go down to the ground myself......"
Hearing this, the Minister of Household Affairs' heart trembled violently, and then his mind quickly flowed.
Yesterday he went to the ground? Could it be that I saw Li Yuanwai, damn it!
The Minister of Household was apprehensive for a while, and Zhou Yang continued: "Yesterday I saw that piece of wasteland, no one planted it at all, and it was not even ploughed the ground, how can you see the enthusiasm of the people you are talking about?" ”
Zhou Yang asked with a smile, the expression on the face of the Minister of Household was wonderful, and the waves in his heart rose and fell, it was really ups and downs......
"I didn't expect this to happen, Lord Zhenshou, I didn't know before!" The Minister of Household gave up his hand, and at this moment he was relieved and exhaled slowly.
But his words were not soothing at all, but urgent, and this was the effect he wanted.
This kind of apprehension, this kind of panic, this kind of surrender, so that Zhou Yang will not have a feeling against him.
As long as Zhou Yang doesn't target him, then he can operate secretly as before......
"Hehe, you are in a high position, and you usually have a lot of tasks, and you don't know what you should do, but you are all in the study, and you don't ask about the world through the window, this is not good, we have to think about the people's livelihood, we have to be close to reality, follow the people, and share their worries......"
Just as Zhou Yang spread his hands and finished talking about this matter, among the officials in the crowd, an official suddenly appeared.
Zhou Yang was a little puzzled, he usually didn't see these people suddenly appearing.
To be honest, Zhou Yang was a little disappointed, if it was Zhang Dacai who jumped out, he would still be happy.
If Lord Zhang jumped out directly, then it would prove that Lord Zhang had some good evidence, and with evidence, Zhou Yang could directly kill this household minister.
No matter whether this household is good or bad, Zhou Yang can directly kill him, and this hidden bomb can be extinguished regardless of whether it explodes or not.
It's a pity that what jumped out was an official who had no influence on Zhou Yang, since it was Zhou Yang who had no influence, then who else could it be? It's just that the comers are not good.
Zhou Yang glanced at Lord Zhang, who quickly turned his gaze and did not touch Zhou Yang's ears.
Zhou Yang shook his head lightly, and had no choice but to ask the official who came out, "What's the matter with you?" ”
"Returning to Lord Zhenshou, the minister has some suggestions here, I don't know if I should say it or not?" The officer clasped his hands.
Zhou Yang looked at him helplessly, and said in his heart: You can say whatever you have to say, why do you waste time by doing this......
Looking at the unkind officials, how could Zhou Yang want him to say what was in his heart.
In the officialdom, it is these words, as well as the words in the book, that have become their sharp blades to fight in the officialdom.
However, in this environment, how could Zhou Yang shut up others.
"What do you suggest, what do you think, tell me!" Zhou Yang used a somewhat swaggering tone to let him talk about his special thoughts.
"Returning to my lord, the junior official also looked at those wastelands yesterday, and he felt that these people were too lazy, so no one planted those fields."
"I think we should straighten things out, otherwise we just gave them the land, but they don't know how to be grateful, but instead have the land and don't work, won't it go against your original intention, Lord Guard?"
