In Lushui Village, under the jurisdiction of Nanyicheng, a young man hurriedly walked into the village and walked back to his yard quickly.

In the courtyard were several young people about his age, all looking at him with very expectant eyes.

"What's the matter, big tree, is the news true or false?" When he saw the young man enter the door, he was immediately greeted by someone, who seemed to be very concerned about his next answer.

The young man named Big Tree did not answer immediately, but turned around and closed the door first, and pulled several of his companions in the courtyard into his own house.

Seeing this, Dashu's father and mother wanted to ask their son what he had been busy with these days, and why he hadn't seen anyone all day.

But the big tree moved very fast, and he didn't give his father and mother time to ask questions, and the door was already slammed shut.

Seeing this, the big tree father straightened his face, and wanted to step forward and call people out.

But Da Shu Niang cared more about her son, and stretched out her hand to hold the person: "What did you do in the past?" My son is playing with his friends at home, and if you run in and scold someone, your son's face will be gone! ”

Big Tree Daddy snorted coldly: "What kind of thing is his face?" He couldn't stay home all day, he didn't do a single thing of business, he couldn't farm, and he couldn't find a daughter-in-law. I can't say anything about him now? ”

Da Shu Niang glared at her old man fiercely and dragged the person away.

The couple's movements did not reach the room of the young man, and he was in a hurry to inform the friends of the news he had obtained from the county town:

"You don't know what important news I got in the county this time!"

The big tree poured a sip of cold water, and then spoke again in the eager urging of everyone: "I have inquired, and there is indeed a female magistrate in the county as we heard!" They are indeed recruiting workers, preparing to rebuild the county government, with a daily salary of 20 yuan, and a meal! ”

As soon as the news came out, the other five people in the room all showed happy expressions.

They are all men from Lushui Village, and their ancestors have been farming for a living.

But over the years, the life of Lushui Village has been really difficult, and the grain in the fields can't support them at all, even because Nanyi City is located at the border pass, it will often be harassed by the Huns, so the tax has been reduced by half.

However, the output of their fields alone is not enough to support themselves, and the payment of taxes is not enough for this group of people to survive.

So over the years, the young people of Lushui Village have successively gone to other states and counties to make a living, and in addition to the children in the village who cannot be taken out, they are the elderly or the women who have been left behind to take care of the family.

Several of their young people are the only children in the family, and they are worried that if they leave, their parents will have no one to take care of them, so they are reluctant to leave.

Now the county seat has come to the county, and the county government will be rebuilt.

They have also seen it before, the county government is a big place, if you really recruit people to repair it, it will have to be built for ten days and half a month.

The salary of 20 wen a day is more than what they earn by going out to work as coolies, and if they can work for a month, it is also a lot of money!

So after the news of recruiting workers from the county government came back, these young people who had a good relationship with Dashu got together and wanted to try their luck in the county seat.

However, because this news is not accurate, they are also worried that someone has misspread the rumors, after all, the female magistrate or something, it seems to be fake when you hear it.

Inevitably, their brothers rushed to the county seat, but they were just happy in vain, so they let the most clever and most skilled tree in dealing with people go to the county seat to find out.

Now that it has finally been affirmed, several young people are eager to rush to the county seat immediately to take over this job of 20 salaries a day.

But the big tree raised his hand and motioned to a few people to calm down first: "In addition, I also inquired about some things on the side. Do you know why the imperial court arranged for a female magistrate to come over? ”

Several men shook their heads one after another, where could they understand the thoughts of those officials?

Dashu raised his chin slightly, with a proud look of "you don't understand anything": "It is said that our female magistrate is still a county lord with a fief, and our Nanyi City is the fief of the county lord's mother!" Therefore, this land should have been managed by the county lord, and the county lord was smart and capable, so the emperor handed over Nanyi City to her to manage. ”

"This time, the county lord brought a lot of people, but the county government has been defeated for so long, she needs to re-organize the county government's team, and there is an urgent shortage of talents. She planned to vacate half of the share of the officials and leave it to the people in a few villages in Nanyi City to compete. ”

"But if you can pass the assessment of the county lord's mother and become a government official registered in the government, you can get at least five dollars of silver a month!"

The last four words were emphasized by the big tree.

"Five cents a month?! If you work for a year, won't you get six taels of silver?! The youngest of the few cultivators couldn't help but exclaim.

In these years, ordinary people spend at most one or two pieces of silver a year, and those who are too poor in Nanyi City may not even need these two pieces of silver.

If you can find a job for six taels of silver, I don't know how many people you can envy to death.

Several of the young men became excited, as if this good fortune had befallen them.

Seeing their expressions, Da Shu raised his hand and waved at a few people: "Don't be too happy, I heard the news that only one person will be selected from a village on the Yamen side." I was able to get this news, thanks to my good luck, and I talked to the people next to the county host. ”

"Since they say so, even if we are lucky in our village, it is estimated that only one person will be elected. Of course, I hope that it will be our brothers who will be chosen, but if we are not lucky, the work of building the county government must not be missed! ”

Dashu was serious, and the rest of the young people had the same idea as him.

Under the reminder of the big tree, everyone's minds that were about to be carried away by money gradually became clearer.

After confirming the authenticity of this matter, they inevitably lost such two good opportunities, and everyone quickly said to their families, so they simply packed up some things and hurried to the county seat to try their luck.

On the other side, Su Hengyu, who was watched by many people in the city, was drawing architectural drawings in the inn with craftsmen who were proficient in this way.

Recruitment is working hard these days, and there is little work in Nanyi City, and it is even more rare for them to bid so high like Su Hengyu.

Therefore, as soon as the recruitment notice was posted, many people immediately came to sign up.

Now that the number of people has been recruited, it is only necessary to prepare the building materials and officially start construction.

After the drawings were drawn, Su Hengyu handed them over to the craftsman, planning to let the other party help keep an eye on the progress when the time came.

At this moment, she had no idea that someone was taking the initiative to take on the task because of her curiosity, and was ready to come and make her a friend.
