"The county magistrate is indeed here, but don't worry. Just divide up the grain from the previous fields, and let the county magistrate personally watch and weigh it later."

Li Zheng got a reminder from the yamen servant and hurriedly found someone to do the work.

"Qiu Qi, don't go, you have to stay here and help me."

Zhu Qiuqi saw that Lizheng's excited hands were trembling slightly, and knew that Lizheng was nervous.

Glancing at Zhang Siyuan and seeing Zhang Siyuan nodding his head, Zhu Qiuqi stayed.

"Hurry up, the county magistrate is coming, you should be quicker in your hands and feet."

Li Zheng saw that there were still a few people guarding the door, and hurriedly urged everyone to get out of the way.

Don't block the door, wouldn't the county magistrate think that the people of Xiao Zhangzhuang are slow to do things when they do things like this?

When everyone heard Li Zheng's order, they didn't dare to stay at the door, and hurried towards the yard.

Some people had never met the county magistrate before, but now hearing Li Zheng's words, everyone looked excitedly at the officials outside the door, wanting to see what the county magistrate was like.

The county magistrate was only concerned with watching the grain production, and never expected that so many people would gather in the yard in Xiaozhangzhuang.

When he entered the door, he was also taken aback when he saw a circle of people in the yard.

"Lizheng, this is..."

Li Zheng glared at those spectators, and just now he persuaded them to go back to work.But these people relied on Zhu Qiuqi to give them a holiday, and none of them went back at all.

Li Zheng was helpless, he couldn't just drive people away, he could only let these people stay here.

"Adults don't need to talk to them, they are all people who come to watch the fun."

The county magistrate didn't say much, after all, it is rare to have a bumper harvest in a disaster year.

Not to mention these villagers, even he, the county magistrate, saw it for the first time.

"Master County Magistrate, please, these are the grains that have been dried in the sun for the past two days. We have already weighed the grains in a few acres of fields at noon today, and the rest have not been weighed yet."

The county magistrate waved his hand, "If that's the case, let's try weighing it."

Although the county magistrate had already prepared himself, when he saw the weight of the grain, he couldn't help being shocked.

If this kind of output is put in a normal year, maybe everyone can plant such a yield with more care.

But now it is a disaster year, it is very good that there is no phenomenon of no crop failure, how can there be signs of a bumper harvest?

Master Xu was also watching. Hearing the county magistrate's inquiry, he thought of the undercurrent and water channel in the back mountain of Xiaozhangzhuang.

"My lord, I'm afraid it's all because of the undercurrent and the canal."

The county magistrate nodded. If the fields were irrigated enough, it would be fine to have a higher yield.

"Lizheng, count the grain production of your Xiaozhang Village this year, and give details for each household."

Hearing what the county magistrate said, Li Zheng had a bold guess in his mind.

He felt that since the county magistrate asked him to record in detail, he was probably going to report this situation to the imperial court.

"Please don't worry, my lord, Caomin will definitely record it carefully."

Li Zheng originally thought that the county magistrate would go back just to look around, but he didn't expect that the sky had darkened, and the county magistrate showed no sign of going back.

Li Zheng felt uneasy, so he could only go to Master Xu.

Master Xu also stayed in their Xiaozhang Village for a while before. Compared with the county magistrate, Master Xu is more familiar with the license.

"Master Xu, I don't know if the county magistrate will stay in Xiaozhangzhuang today?"

Master Xu also nodded without hesitation, "As for the room we lived in before, please ask Li Zheng to prepare it."

Li Zheng understood, although he was worried that the county magistrate would have an accident in the village.

But looking at the group of yamen servants following the county magistrate, he knew that these people were protecting the county magistrate, and Lizheng was relieved a lot.

"Lizheng, you have to help find two families to prepare this meal."

Master Xu had also tasted the food made by the villagers before, and he would not mind the coarse rice and grains, but the county magistrate is different.

The county magistrate is originally from the capital, Master Xu was really worried that the county magistrate would not be used to farm food.

Mentioning this matter, Li Zheng became happy.

Seeing Li Zheng's mysterious appearance, Master Xu couldn't help raising his eyebrows.

"What? Lizheng, is there anything new you want to tell me?"

Hearing Master Xu's question, Li Zheng was also happy.

"Master Xu doesn't know something. You left early a few days ago and didn't see the cafeteria of our Xiaozhangzhuang."

"Canteen? Where is it?"

Master Xu had already left before the canteen was built, so he really didn't know about Xiao Zhangzhuang's canteen.

"It's just places that sell food. If you're interested, you can go and have a look."

"It's all places where our villagers sell their own food, and the taste is pretty good."

Li Zhengzheng said that the food was all ordered by Zhu Qiuqi, and the taste was really not bad.

But she also felt that no matter how much she said, it would be better than Master Xu trying it himself.

When Master Xu heard Li Zheng's words, he couldn't help raising his eyebrows.

He really hadn't heard about the cafeteria issue, but now that he heard Li Zheng's words, he was also a little interested.

"You guys, take the county magistrate to rest first, and I'll go and see where you eat these days."

The yamen servants who stayed in Xiaozhangzhuang were also quite excited when they heard Master Xu's words.

Since Xiaozhangzhuang's canteen was built, they ate there every day, and the taste was really good.

"Master Xu, go and have a look, the food you sell is really good."

If it was only recommended by Li Zheng, Master Xu just wanted to see something new.

Now that several yamen servants have said this, Mr. Xu felt that he really had to go and see this cafeteria.

"What are you talking about? What canteen?"

The county magistrate didn't see Master Xu for a long time, so he hurried to find him.

Unexpectedly, before he got close, he heard something about the cafeteria.

When they saw the county magistrate coming, they knew that they couldn't hide it anymore, so they didn't hide it anymore.

"My lord, the cafeteria is a place built by Xiao Zhangzhuang people to sell food."

"There is a pharmaceutical factory here, which is allocated to Jishitang. After work, everyone has no extra time to cook, so they can go to the cafeteria to buy food."

When the county magistrate heard this, he immediately became interested.

He has only seen this place selling food in the county town, and he has never seen it in the village.

"In that case, I really went to have a look."

When a group of people arrived at the cafeteria, they saw that there were some scattered people in the lobby.

But many places that sell food have already caught fire.

The county magistrate couldn't help looking at Lizheng, "There are not many people here, how did these people catch fire so early?"

Li Zheng looked at the sky and explained: "The people who go to work in the pharmaceutical factory should be leaving work in an hour, everyone has to prepare in advance."
