Hand over the jade seal first [Infrastructure]

Xiao Zirong put on the mask and walked over there, wondering why Liu Cainiang brought such a person back?

No matter how you look at that crazy expression, it doesn't look like a normal person.

Liu Cainiang was also taken aback by this person, and felt extremely regretful, she shouldn't have brought him back when she heard that this person could read and write.

But there is no way. The city lord of their family once said that he hoped that there would be literate people to come, but now there are few literate refugees among the refugees, and those who are really literate can understand. They went directly to the state capital. stay here?

That's why Liu Cainiang met a group of people who were rushing to the state capital, and cut off their beards halfway.

Now...it's useless even if I regret it.

Liu Cainiang raised her eyebrows and said, "What are you shouting for? Be honest!"

The scholar flinched, but his eyes were still looking around, as if he was looking for something.

When Xiao Zirong walked over, he happened to meet Liu Cainiang who was looking at this person and wanted to make a move. He quickly said, "What's the matter? Don't be so fierce."

After seeing him, Liu Cainiang hesitated and said, "I don't know what's wrong with this person. He was fine on the road just now, but suddenly he went crazy."

The man immediately said: "I'm not crazy, I'm just... I just didn't expect... Hahahahaha... I found the Peach Blossom Spring that many people have never looked for!"

Xiao Zirong's ears twitched when he heard the word Peach Blossom Spring, he looked the person up and down and asked, "Have you read Mr. Jingjie's "Peach Blossom Spring"?"

That person was still regretting that he couldn't find anyone to share his joy, and the people who were traveling with him didn't even know what Taohuayuan was. At this moment, when he heard Xiao Zirong say this, his eyes lit up: "I know Taohua , I don’t know how to call Mr. Xiao Lang?”

Before Xiao Zirong could speak, Liu Cainiang said, "This is our city lord."

After hearing this, Tao Zhi immediately restrained the smile on his face, and saluted respectfully: "I have seen the city lord."

Xiao Zirong waved his hand: "There is no need to be polite, it seems that you have studied, very good, go to quarantine first, I have something to tell you after the quarantine is over."

Tao Zhi couldn't help asking: "City Master, is this the Peach Blossom Spring described by Mr. Jing Jie?"

Xiao Zirong couldn't help laughing after hearing this: "You read this book, what are the first few sentences of "Peach Blossom Spring"?"

Tao Zhi immediately recited a sentence: "In Taiyuan, Jin Dynasty, Wuling people fished for a living..."

Speaking of this, Tao Zhi also reacted, Xiao Zirong smiled and said: "Peach Blossom Spring is in Wuling, not in Yanzhou."

Tao Zhi's cognition was confused for a moment, and he looked around again, thinking that he had never seen a city that was brighter and tidier than this place, and even Jiankang was not as clean and tidy as this place, so he insisted on his own idea: If there is a peach blossom garden in the world, there may be a second one. Mr. Jingjie met one, and others can also meet the second one. Unfortunately, I don’t have the literary talents of Mr. Jingjie, otherwise I would have to write an article.

While thinking, Tao Zhi was taken to the isolation point by Ah Yin.

At first, Xiao Zirong kept these people isolated just because he was worried that they would bring the disease. However, he has discovered another benefit of isolation during these days - he can have a buffer time to observe these people's behavior and character.

Even if they can't see clearly in a short period of time, commoners have limited reading, limited vision, and few people are so scheming that even Xiao Zirong can't see it.

Liu Cainiang followed Xiao Zirong and asked: "That person doesn't look normal, the city wants to use him?"

Xiao Zirong said: "Being able to memorize "Peach Blossom Spring" must have read a lot of books. Of course it is useful. At least you can help me draft a document or something, otherwise I have to write it myself every time."

Xiao Zirong is also ambitious, okay? He has already built Taoyuan City, so how can he not leave something behind?So he recently thought about starting to write history, the history of Taoyuan City.

Although the city is less than a year old, and the construction inside and outside the city has not yet been completed, it is necessary to record such a construction process.

It’s just that no one else can replace him in this matter, and he can only do it himself. Xiao Zirong’s writing is very painful. He may not have any romantic cells in liberal arts. After writing an article, he feels as if he is writing a city building tutorial. The details are the details, but no matter how you look at it, it has nothing to do with the subject matter of history books.

So he needs someone who can help him compile history. Tao Zhi is very good. Although... he looks abnormal, but he doesn't look dangerous. If there are no major problems, Xiao Zirong decided to be him.

Liu Cainiang felt guilty when Xiao Zirong mentioned the four words of drafting documents, and changed the subject very forcefully: "Speaking of which, this person is quite discerning, and just now he praised that our city is cleaner and tidy than Jiankang .”

Xiao Zirong was also a little proud after hearing this, of course, because the houses are all in Lifang, even if the garbage generated in daily life is hidden, what you can see from the city gate is a clean and tidy street .

Especially in Chang'an during the Tang Dynasty, there were drainage ditches on both sides of the road, but Xiao Zirong directly built underground drainage facilities, and there was no dirty water on the road. With the road paved with white lime magma, it was very clean tidy?

However, what Xiao Zirong didn't expect was that people who have read the book have more imagination than ordinary people. Ordinary people only feel that they have found a place with a better environment when they come here. The village is much stronger, and I am worried because I don’t know what I can do in the future, whether I can make ends meet, and whether I will be kicked out.

No matter how imaginative people are, they just compare this place with Jiankang, and feel that this place may be similar to Jiankang.

As a result, Tao Zhi had traveled to study and was well-informed, so he directly denied this idea and spread rumors that this place is better than Jiankang.

The only thing not as good as Jiankang is that it doesn't look very big here, but that's not a big problem.

Tao Zhi would read a passage of "The Story of Peach Blossom Spring" when he was on the rise. Although Xiao Zirong denied that this was not Peach Blossom Spring, but there was a sign of Peach Blossom City at the door, plus there were secrets, Tao Zhi still felt that this place was more like Peach Blossom Spring.

Ordinary people couldn't understand what he read, they only heard that this place was better than Jiankang, and Taoyuan City's image suddenly became higher in their eyes.

In the eyes of ordinary people, Jiankang is already second to none as the capital of the country. What is more powerful than the capital of the country?That must be the place where the gods live!

Although Liu Cainiang who brought them here did not look like a fairy because of the blindfold, the city lord who appeared later looked really good-looking and fit the image of a fairy.

Even if the other party wears a mask and can't see the whole face clearly, but the more hazy the image is, the more people can imagine a beautiful image, especially Xiao Zirong's eyes are very beautiful, otherwise Xiao Xuexing would not have been really bewitched to make him agree. Xiao Zirong abdicated, and his current clothes are all long-sleeved deep clothes worn by scholars, and his waist is tied with a palm-width belt. .

This story was passed on from ten to ten, and these refugees who had just arrived thought they had entered the fairy house.

However, Xiao Zirong didn't know at this time that he was assigning official positions. In order to make the official name less obvious, he directly adopted the title from the Zhou Dynasty. The Ministry of War was called Xia Guan and was led by Lu Liu. When it reached 40 people, although it was a little too much according to the original population ratio, the addition of refugees balanced this well.

Minister of the Ministry of Punishment is Qiu Guan, who is in charge of the law of punishment and prison, and handed it over to Jin Sheng. After all, she has better logic ability and learning ability. book.

The officials of the Ministry of Industry called it Dongguan, and Zhai Xi was naturally the leader.

The only thing that is different from the Zhou Dynasty is the title of Chunguan. In the Zhou Dynasty, Chunguan was the official name of the officials of the Ministry of Rites, but Xiao Zirong felt that they don’t need this now, and they can set it up later, so he directly moved Chunguan to The title of the official of the household department was handed over to Wei Yun, another young lady who stood out in the exam.

Although they don't have adjutants under their command, they still have two small officials. In this way, there are a total of eight people, and they just dispatched all the young ladies with outstanding test scores.

After everything was done, Xiao Zirong specially organized an appointment ceremony. By the way, he also asked Bai Yan to lead the officials to make a register. There was no need to touch the household registration, and by the way, he distributed the reserved houses near the city lord's mansion to the four of them.

The four young ladies were very excited. They never imagined that they would one day be female officials. Although there are not many of them now, there will be many with the entry of refugees.

Xiao Zirong also set up a dinner party, and all the procedures were almost in accordance with the records in ancient books. Of course, they were not the same, so we tried to get close to each other so that these little ladies could get the glory they deserved, and at the same time solidify a cognition - reading will have way out.

Don't look back and stop making any excuses when you hear about reading one by one. These little ladies can go to the field disobediently with menstruation on them, and they have to be supported by relatives and friends to be honest. When they are studying, they start using them one by one. This is simply unreasonable as an excuse to ask for leave.

In fact, Xiao Zirong also knows that many people understand the truth of being able to succeed in reading, but the message that the little ladies have always received is that these have nothing to do with them.

It's a man's job to be able to get ahead in reading, so what's the use of them being good at reading?

What Xiao Zirong needs to do now is to break this inherent impression and let them find that they can become officials even if they work hard. Even though Taoyuan City is not big, at least it belongs to their city.

Everyone was really happy that night. Although there was no singing and dancing that is often seen at noble banquets, everyone was talking and laughing happily.

When the dinner was about to end, Xiao Zirong said solemnly: "From tomorrow onwards, you will officially take office. Everything is difficult at the beginning. You have never done this before. Naturally, you need to explore. This is normal. Don't be afraid of making mistakes. If you make a mistake, you just need to make up for it in time. The most important thing is not to neglect your duties. The refugees who are currently in isolation are due to the negligence of the governor of Nanyanzhou. But there is no place to run, even if you can run out, you will know what is going on outside and what life is going on."

The expressions of the four young ladies below became much more serious after hearing this, and Zhai Xi was the most familiar with Xiao Zirong, and she was the first to speak at this time: "City Lord, don't worry, we will definitely do things well .”

Xiao Zirong was actually not very worried. These little ladies had no chance before, so they would cherish this opportunity even more. What he said was just another reminder.

But the real point lies in the following, Xiao Zirong said: "In addition, now we have accepted some outsiders, among whom there are not many gentlemen, but there are also many, their existence is necessary, but at the same time they must see I am not used to women being officials. In the future, with more and more men, you may encounter a lot of resistance. What I can do in this regard is to be fair and just. As long as you are capable, I will not let you because of gender issues And being suppressed, the rest... depends on you.”

Xiao Zirong really wants to liberate women's productivity, but it doesn't mean blindly showing favoritism. It's not a big deal to always protect them. Now that he can protect them, what if no one is willing to protect them in the future?

He always felt that the time he stayed here might not be that long. Xiao Xuexing was like a sharp sword hanging above his head. Although the sword was aiming a bit crookedly now, if one day it aimed at the right place Woolen cloth?

So he needs to cultivate an heir, and when the heir can provoke the leader, maybe he will still slip away by then.

Originally, he never thought of being a city lord.

Xiao Zirong said this to remind these little ladies that those outsiders may have gossip, but this is also the best time to exercise their mentality and change the atmosphere.

Sure enough, after he finished speaking, the other girls were all thinking about it, but Lu Liu, who has never been very talkative, patted the food table and said: "What's wrong with them? If you have other thoughts, hit the head with a hammer to see if they dare."

Xiao Zirong felt... the little lady under him seemed to have gone from one extreme to another.

Where did this violent idea of ​​knocking people's heads come from?

He deeply began to doubt whether the decision to let Lu Liu be the summer official was correct. What if there will be a series of strong and violent little ladies in Xiabu in the future?

Fortunately, Jin Sheng coughed lightly and said, "It's okay to fight, but we have to be reasonable. Hasn't the city lord already formulated the law? At that time, everything will be determined according to the law. If they break the law, they will be severely punished!"

Xiao Zirong was very relieved after hearing this, feeling that he had finally found a suitable candidate for Qiuguan.

The newly appointed Chunguan Wei Yun asked: "What if they make big mistakes and don't make small mistakes?"

Jin Sheng looked at her in surprise: "Isn't it up to us whether they broke the law or not?"

Xiao Zirong:? ? ? ? ?
