The shameless female county magistrate shocked the government and the public
Chapter 25 Even eating and taking
When Lu Da saw Mr. Rong, he knelt down and cried, "Mr. Rong, do you still remember me? I thought I would never come back in this life, but I didn't expect that God would treat me well!"
Mr. Rong recognized Lu Da, squatted down, held his shoulders, and said excitedly: "Lu Da, it's been 30 years, and you are still alive, that's great!"
The moment the people who had been so nervous on the road stepped onto the Great Wall, they all breathed a sigh of relief and knelt down excitedly: "Thank you, Prince Jing! Thank you, General Cheng! Thank you, County Magistrate!"
Jun Mo glanced at them indifferently, then left with his men.
Yu Jiuer said to the people kneeling on the ground: "Everyone, get up quickly! We are finally home. Let's build our hometown together from now on! You are free!"
"Okay, okay, I'll draft a letter to inform my superiors right away. Lao Cheng, you've finally made a contribution this time. I'll definitely take your place as the commander-in-chief!"
Mr. Rong hurriedly took the credit. He couldn't let the shameless county magistrate take all the hard-earned credit.
Yu Jiuer said with a smile: "Mr. Rong, you don't have to guard against me like a thief. We are in Yinshan together, and we are like grasshoppers on the same rope. We prosper together and suffer together! It is also a blessing for Yinshan that General Cheng sits on the position of commander-in-chief!"
She said this from the heart. In the past 20 years since slavery was abolished in Yinshan, although the people serving under the former governor-general He Cheng did not have good food and drink, they were able to eat and dress warmly and did not suffer much.
"Just don't come here to take advantage of us! We in Xiguanying are not rich!" Mr. Rong muttered like a wronged old man.
Yu Jiuer chuckled and waved her hand: "Alright! Hurry up and register their names and ask someone to prepare food. I will take them home after they are well fed and well-drinking!"
Mr. Rong: “…”
Even though she didn't even let him have a meal, he still underestimated her shamelessness.
After dinner, before leaving, Yu Jiuer saw that there were many winter cotton-padded jackets among the newly delivered food and fodder from the military camp, and she thought:
"Mr. Rong, since all the credit has been given to General Cheng, I won't compete with him. It's just that these twenty people came back in such a hurry that they didn't have time to bring any clothes. Look at your winter jackets..."
Seeing Yu Jiuer coveting the new supplies, and thinking about this hard-earned contribution, Mr. Rong could only wave his hand reluctantly: "Give it to you, give it to you, isn't it just a few cotton-padded jackets?"
After some looting, Yu Jiuer was finally satisfied and led the people back to Yinshan.
Finally sending this ancestor away, Mr. Rong looked at Yu Jiuer's back as she walked away and warned Cheng Ming: "He ate and took everything. Don't let him come to Xiguanying again."
When they returned to the county town, the people who rushed over after hearing the news looked in disbelief.
When they saw their relatives among the people who came back, they immediately hugged each other and cried bitterly;
Even the common people who had not seen their loved ones return had red eyes from crying.
The eldest lady hugged Yu Jiuer tightly and cried until she was hoarse: "You are trying to kill our mother! Since we found out that you went to the coast of the Western Regions, our family has not stopped crying, you unfilial son! If something happens to you, how will we live!"
As he was speaking, Wang Meng, who had received the news, ran in frantically with his legs covered in mud without even having time to wash it off.
"Dad!" Wang Meng saw an old man who looked very much like him, staring at him eagerly. He suddenly knelt at his feet, hugged his feet and cried bitterly.
"You are finally back. Mom has been waiting for you so long that her hair has turned white. Grandpa and grandma are holding on to their last breath, just waiting for you to come home!"
Although they were apart for thirty years, the blood ties between them could not be severed, and both father and son cried bitterly.
Yu Jiuer wiped away her tears and said, "Wang Meng, take your father home first. I'll give you five days off. Take good care of him for a few days."
"Thank you, sir! I will go back after I finish my work." Wang Meng wiped away his tears and kowtowed to Yu Jiuer, "I, Wang Meng, will never forget your great kindness!"
After Wang Meng and his son left, Yu Jiuer said to the Lu family, "Lu Da, are you willing to join my farm and help me build my hometown?"
Lu Da excitedly led his family to kneel down in front of Yu Jiuer: "Since you saved us, you are our second parents. How could we not be willing? Since you don't mind, our family will obey you from now on!"
The house of the craftsman of the Lu family was the best and most exquisite wooden building in Yinshan County. After the abolition of slavery, it was returned to the public and used as a school for teaching and educating people.
Yu Jiuer first arranged them in the backyard of the county government office, planning to build a new building for them on the farm later.
Now that she has the famous Lu family craftsmen under her command, is there any wooden building that can stump her?
Yu Jiuer called Doctor Liu and asked him to treat the injured people, and then said to them: "Those who want to go home can go home, and those who don’t have a home can stay on the farm and help work.
You will have food to eat and a place to live. If the farm has a surplus next year, you will be paid. It is up to you to decide.”
The workers on her farm now only have food and accommodation provided, but no wages.
If this happened in modern times, she would be like "Zhou Pa Pi" who exploits her employees.
Even in the capital, no one would go there if they only asked for food and lodging without paying any money. Only in a poor place like Yinshan County would the people value food so much.
There is no way, she is too poor, Yinshan County is too poor!
She decided to pay everyone their wages once the farm developed.
This time, the population of Yinshan County increased by twenty at once, which was finally enough to cope with the increase in population required by the old emperor.
Only after all the rescued people were settled did Yu Jiuer sigh, "The trip to the coastal area of the Western Region was a complete success!"
What awaits her next is an arduous task: ensuring food and clothing for the people, increasing tax revenue, building her hometown, and abolishing the Yinshan Contract that the people both love and hate!
After returning to the room, the eldest lady hurriedly called Doctor Liu to take Yu Jiuer's pulse.
After diagnosing the child, Dr. Liu sighed: "This child is a lucky star! It's a miracle that he is still safe and sound after all this trouble!"
Yu Jiuer was so tired that she slept on the bed for a whole day and night. When she woke up, she asked, "Where is the craftsman from the Lu family?"
She always thought about her waterwheel.
Yutao said softly, "They are very hardworking and have already gone to the farm to help!"
Yu Jiuer nodded and ate something before her mind became completely clear.
Thinking of the fine seeds she had brought back from the Western Regions at the risk of her life, she hurriedly took them out and decided to breed them first.
These potatoes must be planted as soon as possible.
It is rich in vitamins and trace elements such as calcium and potassium, is easy to absorb, and most importantly, has a strong sense of fullness, high yield, and is easy to grow.
This is perfect for the barren Yinshan County.
After finishing the work here, Yu Jiuer went straight to the farm. After being away for ten days or so, she had reclaimed several hundred acres of wasteland. The speed was so fast that it was truly astonishing.
The cleared land has been fertilized and crops have been planted, and the farm is full of a thriving scene.
Yu Jiuer took the drawings of the waterwheel and found the craftsmen of the Lu family on the farm. They had now joined in the construction of the building on their own.
"Uncle Lu, come here and help me see if you can make the waterwheel on my drawing?" Yu Jiuer called Lu Da over and spread out the drawing.
Lu Da looked at the blueprint carefully. The more he looked at it, the more excited he became. Amazement appeared in his eyes: "Sir, did you design this thing? It's amazing!"
“Yes, can you do it?”
"can!"
Yu Jiuer got a satisfactory answer and patted his shoulder excitedly: "I really didn't make a mistake. I plan to make a few of these water wheels and put them beside the river to irrigate the paddy fields."
"That's no problem! Leave it to us!" Lu Da excitedly called out to his son while holding the blueprint, "Zhi'er, come and see, there's work to do!"
The years wasted by the people from the Western Regions are gone forever, and they are now full of energy to contribute to their hometown.
Yu Jiuer looked at the vast wasteland and felt the breeze blowing over. Suddenly, she got an inspiration: "Uncle Lu, I also want to build a large windmill next to the dormitory building. It's a bit like a waterwheel. I can use it to deliver water to the roof of the building."
"There is no water here, how can it be powered?" Luda was surprised.
Yu Jiuer smiled mysteriously: "Wind! Wind is what the Northwest has the most!"
Thanks to her parents for giving her a genius brain, she wants to pour all the knowledge in her head into this hungry and barren land.
She had never studied electric lights, and didn't have the materials to make them, so she gave up on it. However, she was confident that she could rely on wind energy to power the windmill and transport water to the water tower on the building.
Lu Da looked at the confident Yu Jiuer with eyes as if he was looking at a monster. He felt that she was like an immortal from heaven who could do everything. It was amazing!
