The shameless female county magistrate shocked the government and the public
Chapter 16 Seeds of Doubt
When Yu Jiuer saw Mr. Rong come in, she stood up in a hurry and accidentally knocked over the wine glass on the table. She was obviously a little flustered.
This made Mr. Rong even more convinced that she was hiding something.
Before Mr. Rong came closer, Yu Jiuer said to General Cheng with a playful smile: "Then let's work together for the future of the Northwest! Build Yinshan County into a paradise as soon as possible and welcome our family to reunite here! I have something else to do, so I'll leave first!"
When passing by Mr. Rong, he quickly bowed to him and strode away.
That idiot Cheng Ming watched her go out reluctantly, which made Mr. Rong glare at him with a look of disappointment on his face. He really wanted to slap this idiot to death.
"Why are you staring at me?"
Mr. Rong asked hurriedly, "What did you promise that boy?"
"It's nothing, just a few broken stones dug out from the mountains!" Cheng Ming waved his hand, walked to his seat and continued to pour wine and savor it carefully.
"How much?" Mr. Rong asked.
"Here is the contract, come and see for yourself!" Cheng Ming held up the contract he had just signed with the county magistrate.
Mr. Rong took it quickly.
"Bang!" He slapped the table after reading it, stamped his feet and said, "You were outwitted by that kid again! One tael of silver for ten carts of stone, what on earth were you thinking?"
Cheng Ming then realized that he seemed to have been fooled. He rubbed his nose with a guilty conscience and muttered, "She also said that she would send me ten jars of good wine tomorrow!"
"You're such a spendthrift!" General Rong was so angry that he threw the contract at his face. "I told you long ago that the girl was full of bad intentions, but you were such a fool that she let him kill you! You're so unlucky!"
Cheng Ming touched his forehead naively, then said belatedly: "Well, if she comes again next time, I will close the door and let the dogs out. No, I will let you out to deal with her!"
"A shameless county magistrate with no bottom line! I will not receive her next time! Every time she comes, she takes things and never gives any gifts. She doesn't have the awareness of previous county magistrates at all! Humph!" Mr. Rong's face turned black with anger.
In the second round, Cheng Jiang was defeated!
Yu Jiuer went back humming a little tune. She was in a good mood as the stone problem was solved perfectly. She thought about asking people to fetch the stones quickly to prevent that shrewd military from causing trouble.
Her dream farm was the farm in the Monopoly game she had played before. Yes, she wanted to build it just like that! She would need to bring in more stones.
After returning, Yu Jiuer assigned 500 people to build buildings. These 500 people were very experienced in building the Great Wall, and Yu Jiuer felt relieved to leave the task to them.
There is strength in numbers. Within a few days, the foundation of the building was laid and the outline of five large square buildings lined up in parallel had taken shape.
According to Yu Jiuer's design, each building is square, with a large patio in the middle and connected corridors around it.
The people nearby could not help but be curious. As soon as the foundation was laid, they often came to watch, their eyes full of envy: "Even serving in the army is better than living at home. The county magistrate really loves the people like his own children!"
The construction of buildings here is proceeding in full swing, and the land reclamation over there is also in full swing.
Everything was going on in an orderly manner, and Yu Jiuer's tense heart finally relaxed a little.
After a few days, the rice seedlings grew well and were ready to be planted.
Before planting the seedlings, Yu Jiuer repeatedly told the men: "Only strong seedlings can be planted. In order to increase grain production, the quality must be strictly controlled. Everyone remember, it is better to have less than less!"
Widow Yun is an expert at farming nearby, and was invited by Yu Jiuer to help with the seedling division.
As she was dividing the seeds, she yelled to the big, strong men, "Be careful, these seeds are tender, be careful with them!"
This caused the strong men to move cautiously with each step and be extremely careful.
Within a few days, thousands of acres of rice were planted by the huge army of pioneers.
From afar, a large area of lush green is thriving in the wasteland that was once overgrown with weeds.
Yu Jiuer reserved one acre of land as an experimental field to study hybrid rice, and also selected several careful people to take care of the paddy field.
She planted some wild rice in the experimental field to prepare for next year's hybrid rice.
In a few months she will have to stay at home to give birth, and someone will have to help take over the experimental field.
Her third brother-in-law Ma Liang is not only literate, but also thoughtful, hardworking and willing to work hard, so she plans to entrust the scientific research of rice in the experimental field to him.
At this time, she was squatting on the edge of the field, teaching Ma Liang step by step how to measure the growth of rice, how to monitor water levels, how to apply fertilizers and prevent insects, etc.
Looking at the vast green rice fields, walking along the ridges and greeting the workers working hard in the fields, Yu Jiuer felt that the future was bright.
Yu Jiuer happily finished a day's work and returned to the backyard of the county government office. As soon as she stepped into the hall, she saw a woman with burns on her face sitting in the hall.
Yu Jiuer understood in her heart that this must be the niece of her eldest brother-in-law.
Seeing Yu Jiuer coming back, the woman knelt down timidly: "Greetings, greetings to the county magistrate!"
Yu Jiuer helped her up: "No need to be so polite, be more casual at home from now on, they have told you about the situation at home, right?"
"I said it!" The voice was so soft that you couldn't hear it unless you pricked up your ears.
Yu Jiuer slowed down her tone and asked softly, "What's your name?"
"Muxier!"
"Okay, now that you know my situation and that this marriage is fake, do you have any requests? I'm sorry to have wronged you by using you to ward off disaster this time. Just ask for whatever you want!"
"Mu Xier doesn't want anything, as long as she can help Miss Nine!"
Yu Jiuer nodded with satisfaction, raised her head and said to everyone: "Let's not hold the wedding, so as to avoid Prince Jing coming to watch the ceremony. Just spread the news of my marriage to the outside world!"
"This is the only way!" The eldest lady sighed.
Mu Xier also nodded in agreement!
Yu Jiuer is quite satisfied with this "wife".
With a good wife at home to cover for her, she can be in the outfield without any worries!
On this day, Yu Jiuer was measuring the water level in the field with Ma Liang as usual, when she suddenly heard a scream of "Ouch!"
Yu Jiuer heard the sound and looked over, and saw a worker who was carrying water to the field accidentally slipped and stepped on several seedlings, breaking them. At this moment, he was helping them up one by one out of concern.
Looking at this paddy field not far from the river, it is really a waste of time to now rely entirely on manual water carrying.
Yu Jiuer suddenly had an idea: Why didn’t she design a waterwheel?
It seems that there is no waterwheel in the Dadong Dynasty. If she designs one, it will definitely be a good thing for the country and the people.
She did what she said. She went home and worked overtime and finally finished drawing the blueprint based on her memory.
Then he took out the drawings excitedly and wanted to ask someone to do it, but after asking around, no one knew how to do it?
She called a family meeting and asked everyone for advice.
"Is there not even a professional carpenter in the Great Dong Dynasty?"
Aunt Qu said quickly, "In the past, the Lu family craftsmen in Yinshan County were the most powerful carpentry family in the northwest. They would definitely be able to do it. It's a pity that all the Lu family craftsmen were abducted by the people of the Western Regions and taken to the coastal areas of the Western Regions as slaves."
"Can we steal them back?"
The sisters looked at Yu Jiuer as if she were a monster: "......"
My ancestor, you are stealing people, not vegetables!
The Lu family craftsmen should be in the coastal areas of the Western Regions at this moment.
That place used to be the territory of Yinshan Mountain, but was later occupied by people from the Western Regions. It is close to the sea, the climate is warmer than that of Yinshan Mountain, the seafood is abundant, and the farmland is fertile. It's a pity that it is now out of their reach and will never belong to them again.
The eldest sister shook her head at Yu Jiuer.
That coastal area had been occupied by people from the Western Regions for many years, and even the imperial court was unable to recover it. How could a mere county magistrate like her have the crazy idea of going there to steal someone?
Yu Jiuer looked at the First Lady and was surprised to find that after the First Lady glared at Aunt Qu, she lowered her eyes, took a sip of tea, and pretended not to understand Yu Jiuer's question.
Aunt Qu seemed to realize that she had said the wrong thing. She lowered her head and sipped her tea with a stern face. However, Yu Jiu caught a flash of panic in her eyes.
Yu Jiuer glanced at her second uncle in confusion, but saw that he also avoided her gaze and picked up the teacup.
There is a situation!
Her eyes swept over the other three concubines one by one, and they all picked up their teacups and sipped tea.
Is the tea especially fragrant today?
wrong!
The elders must be hiding something from their juniors.
Once the seeds of doubt are planted, they will be eager to break out of the ground!
