"Daddy! You are saved, I will invite you right away! ”
Wu Feng trotted all the way home, pushed open the courtyard door and shouted with red eyes: "Our two thousand catties of wood have been sold!" I also got half of the deposit in advance! County Master Chen Gengnian, he is a good official. ”
Wu family.
The family, who were waiting for the news in fear, wept with joy.
Old Man Wu choked up when he heard this: "It's good to sell it, it's good to sell it." ”
The illness came like a mountain, and he almost dragged down the family.
Looking at the old man who was whimpering and crying, Mrs. Wu silently wiped a handful of tears, went back to the house and put away the hemp rope that was ready to be used for hanging.
Thanks to God, he gave his old man a chance to live.
Wrong.
It's not God, it's thanks to the county master.
Listening to her son's voice outside, Mrs. Wu thought with red eyes.
"Yes, yes, that Quyuan plow, when I came back, I had sold more than 70 pieces, and people were crazy about buying them!"
Outside the alley.
Wu Feng said to the merchants who came to inquire about the news: "Lao Chen, this son, is really powerful, and he is really a good official who thinks about the people. By the way, Lao Xu, don't you still have dozens of catties of iron in your house, go to the county office, this deal will be successful! ”
Previously, Wu Feng went to the county government to do business, and although the surrounding merchants were not optimistic, they were also concerned.
Now that Wu Feng is back with joy, where can everyone bear it, and they have come to inquire about the news.
"Okay, I'll go right away!"
The blacksmith named Lao Xu pulled out his feet and ran out.
The merchants, who were originally lifeless, were all excited at the moment.
Business ...... in Jiang County Are you starting to get better?
Doesn't that mean that everyone will have a way to live in the future?
And this way of life was actually given by the unreliable county master!
Some merchants were not at ease and asked Wu Feng: "That is the second ...... No, the county magistrate is really a good official as you said? ”
Wu Feng said firmly: "What I have seen with my own eyes is not only a good official, but also a good official with ability!" Handle things in an orderly manner, speak logically, and although young, he is definitely a character! ”
Merchants know how to read people best.
Wu Feng has been observing Chen Gengnian today, and the more he looks at it, the more frightened he becomes, he can't be wrong!
"The sky has eyes, and finally let us see hope!"
When they heard this, they wept with joy.
God knows how long they've been looking forward to this day.
-
In fact, it's not just merchants who are excited today.
The farmers in the fields were also crazy.
"Hurry up, take our cattle to the county government to register."
"Old woman, don't search for it, hurry up and get the money, that Quyuan plow, you will definitely not suffer a loss if you buy it, and you can still rent it out."
"There are many men in our family, the old seven, the old, the eight, the old, the nine, you all go to the county office to press the handprint, and go to pull the plow!"
As long as you are well-informed, you are talking about the county lord everywhere today.
The peasants lack culture, and they can only speak a few good and obedient words, and they don't understand many things, so they can only praise them over and over again.
The county master is pretty and white.
praised him for his official authority.
Praise him for developing the curved plow.
Kuahe came up with a good way to lease farming cattle, recruit apprentices, and provide a two-year warranty, but it was also beneficial to the people.
In short, those good words were said in baskets and baskets, and even the county magistrate himself blushed when he heard it.
And the people who heard it all widened their eyes: "Who, Second Ancestor Chen-"
He didn't wait for the man to finish.
The county master was immediately unhappy: "I told you, the county master is not the second ancestor, it's all rumors!" In addition to making Quyuan plows, I also heard from the people of Lijia Village that the county master has a good ability to deliver sows, and now everyone envies Lijia Village. ”
Envy Lijia Village? Why.
That's because, of course—
"Get out of the way, don't get in the way of the old lady plowing!"
Lijia Village.
Zhang Ahua held the Quyuan plow in her hand, and while plowing the ground, she rushed out of the people around her: "If you are really envious, you should go to the county government to buy it!" ”
Lijia Village was the first to buy ten plows.
Now, all ten plows have been put into use, and the ridges are full of people who come to join in the fun and see the freshness.
Everyone who sees the curved plow can't refuse this powerful plow!
Each, yes, every one!
After plowing an acre of land in two hours, it is not tired at all, it is easy and convenient to play, who sees who is not greedy?
On the ridge a little farther away.
Xing Huzi and the others in Xingjia Village watched silently, their envious eyes dripping blood.
But he still said stiffly: "It's okay, we are not rare, Deng Ye said, our village will be exempt from grain tax this year!" ”
-
Chen Geng's first appearance not only solved the dilemma of farmers who had difficulty arriving land.
It also provided business for carpenters, timber, iron, and charcoal.
At the same time, recruiting apprentices, leasing ploughing cattle, including man-pulled ploughs, etc., are all good policies to increase income generation and stimulate consumption!
The people are not stupid.
When you encounter such a good policy, you must be in a hurry to participate.
As a result, the county government was paralyzed.
Only Zhao Qiang, Li Quan, and Niu Tianming are the three servants, why are they busy with so many things?
In the afternoon of the same day.
The people who came to buy ploughs, the apprentices who signed up, the carpenters who came to sign the deeds, and the various material dealers blocked the water around the yamen.
"You're too slow."
"It's just, I've been in line all morning, and it's not my turn yet."
As soon as there are many people, they start to mess up.
The more chaotic it is, the easier it is to get out of control.
Eventually, everyone began to complain.
Li Quan couldn't stand it, and hurriedly yelled to find Chen Gengnian: "The county master is not good, there is a commotion outside." ”
So, Chen Gengnian came forward to appease.
As soon as the county magistrate, who had just brushed a large wave of favorability values in the morning, appeared, everyone quieted down.
"Folks, don't be impatient, I will definitely get everyone's affairs done as soon as possible."
The young county magistrate stood at the door of the ya, his words were sincere, and his expression was apologetic: "Yesterday, this official has released cruel words, and all the relevant personnel who do not come to the county government are fired. These people will definitely come to run errands for everyone. ”
To the clear and sincere eyes of the county master, everyone was silent.
It turned out that yesterday the county magistrate said that all the expulsions from the county government were so that these people could do practical things for everyone!
Thanks to them, they also laughed at the county master for not doing his best, it shouldn't be!
Who is the soil emperor of Jiang County, everyone is clear in their hearts.
Why those officials have the courage not to come, everyone is clear in their hearts.
In the past, even if it had nothing to do with its own interests, no one would meddle in their own affairs.
But now it's different!
County master, he is a good official, he really wants to do practical things for the people!
Look at the county master, from the busy work in the morning to now, he hasn't had time to eat a bite, and his hungry face has begun to turn pale.
How can such a good official be let down!
I don't know who started it.
In short, the people in front of the county government tacitly gave a solution.
"County master, those people won't come, fire them all!"
"Yes, yes, you are a good officer, you can't let them fool you like this!"
"If anyone dares to bully you and make trouble in the yamen, I will be the first to clean him up!"
"Get rid of these bad things and replace them with people who really think about the people!"
In the midst of a crowd.
The county magistrate seemed to have gained courage, and flicked his robe: "Okay! The folks are right! In this case, the official decided to listen to the will of the people and expel all these people! ”
The atmosphere was quiet.
Then, the people were red-eyed and applauded!
Look at the county master, he is so thin and small, and his appearance is still a little immature, but he is dedicated to the people, not afraid of power, and when he comes out for everyone, his spine is straight and his expression is firm.
Who doesn't like such a good official?
-
The county lord expelled everyone in the county government en masse!
The news spread like the wind.
Some are dumbfounded, others are laughing.
But there is another small wave of people who are actually supporting the county master.
"Well done! Those dogs who don't do anything should have been fired a long time ago! ”
"It's better to clean up Zheng Wenfeng's dog thing!"
It's a pity, how could the Earth Emperor Zheng Wenfeng be so easy to clean up?
After receiving the news, he was stunned for a moment, and then tears of laughter came out: "This stunned young fool has no brains at all, and dares to do such a stupid thing that provokes the anger of the public." Tell me to go down, tomorrow, let all the dismissed officials go and make a fuss! ”
Jiang County seems to be calm.
But those with clearer brains can perceive that the first wave of confrontation between Zheng Wenfeng and the county master is about to begin.
-
After letting out the rhetoric and expelling everyone.
Chen Gengnian returned home.
However, he did not go back to his house as soon as possible, but went to Pei's house at the opposite door.
"Yo, the county master is here."
Pei Baolai was standing at the penalty station, and when he saw Chen Gengnian who came to the door, he greeted him with a strange yin and yang attitude.
As the saying goes, those who are close to Zhu are red and those who are close to ink are black.
The original owner, Chen Gengnian, had such an honest hair as Shao An, which was purely accidental.
He and Pei Baolai are the 'raccoon dogs', the kind that fight together every day.
But that was before.
Recently, Pei Zhong praised Chen Gengnian every day, and cleaned up Pei Baolai five times.
Like, now.
Pei Baolai was punished by his father because of Chen Gengnian.
"Geng Nian, you're here."
When Pei Zhong saw Chen Gengnian, he changed his dislike from the past, and he was enthusiastic: "This stinky boy in my family doesn't learn well at all, and I'm worried to death." In the future, take him with you. ”
Pei Baolai snorted impatiently.
Which Cheng thought, but heard Chen Gengnian say: "What did Uncle Pei say, I came this time to seek talents." I know this person Bora, he has a good personality, strong ability, and can carry things. I need his help now. ”
Pei Zhong: ?
Seeing his father's constipated expression, Pei Baolai was amused, and said deliberately: "Yes, yes, I have a good personality and good ability to resist things, and I am talking about it." Chen Xianling needs help if there is anything, please say. ”
"At present, there is a shortage of errand servants in the Yamen, and I think you are very suitable for Bora."
Chen Gengnian said: "Not only you, but also our former brothers, one is counted as one, and they all called over and went to the yamen to do errands. ”
Rao is as gentlemanly as Pei Baolai, he was stunned by Chen Gengnian's words.
Pei Zhong said even more angrily: "Nonsense! Pei Baolai's brothers, one is more unreliable than the other, how can they do the errand service? ”
That's right!
Pei Baolai actually didn't really want to do errand work.
But since his father said so, then this errand service, he Pei Baolai is done!
So, half an hour later.
In the courtyard of the Pei family.
Led by Pei Baolai, a group of sixteen or seventeen-year-old young people stood sparsely and staggeringly.
How to describe them?
Blind runners, street runners, two gangsters, and little bastards.
In short, it doesn't look like a reliable one.
Even if they are now wearing the official uniforms that Li Quan just sent, they all look loose and sloppy, and they are not in shape at all.
"Damn, let us be errands?"
"It's really fake hahahaha, Brother Geng Nian is still as good as ever."
"Laughing to death, stunned, you don't look like a good person when you put on a servant uniform, like a prisoner."
A corner of the yard.
Li Quan, an honest child, looked at this group of young people in society and trembled.
Pei Zhong was even more angry.
But Chen Gengnian was very satisfied.
He smiled and said, "Brothers, everyone looks good." When you go home tonight, ask your parents to cook a good meal and tell them that you are out of breath, and you will be in the yamen from now on. Early tomorrow morning, I will go to the county government with me to report. What you have to do is very simple, who dares to come to the yamen to make trouble and cut him! Who dares to find the stubble of the common people and cut him! Whoever dares to break the law and discipline, what will happen? ”
A group of blind rookies collectively laughed and shouted: "Cut him!" ”
"Good!"
Chen Gengnian made a final summary: "Brothers, the future of Jiang County depends on you!" ”
“……”
Master Pei looked at the blind streamers in this courtyard, and his eyes were dark.
He felt that Jiang County probably had no future.
