The Adventures of the Mad County King on the Domain [Infrastructure]

Xie Qian committed a stubbornness, and regarded selling vegetables as the third fire of the new official's appointment, and insisted on following his requirements to the end.

Xiao Tao Xiaoxiu, who went to sell with a black face, was sent away.Xie Qian didn't delay, and rushed back to Xiying single-handedly, gathered a few people, pulled a car, and had a brief meet-and-greet meeting with the people he brought with him on the way to the county town.There is only one topic: how to promote indoor dishes.

The people he selected this time are all well-connected, and they are the same team that came back from the mountains: the twin sisters Hua, Yang San's mother and son, and the old patriarch of Lemo.As more and more Lemo people moved out of the mountains and forests, Xiying's generous treatment gradually formed a good reputation among the county residents, and the various recruitment and recruitment applications became more and more active, and these few people gradually became idle. down.

Due to various considerations, Xie Qian temporarily left these people in Xiying. Since they had nothing to do, he organized them to set up a study group to learn "the customs of Chang'an".

Of course, the book was compiled by Xie Qian himself and stuffed with private goods. Sometimes He Feiyun would help add some content when he was done with work.

The twin sisters, Hua, are young and have the strongest ability to accept. With the deepening of their studies, they have been completely convinced by the food in Xiying, and also by the endless knowledge that reveals many truths around them.They changed their initial irritating attitude and treated Mr. Xie Qianruzun who could answer all questions. As for the insignificant thoughts about "Savior", they gradually faded with He Feiyun's usual cold attitude. Instead, it discusses the causes and meteorological functions of winds, hurricanes, and monsoons in "Customs and Customs No. [-]".

Yang San's progress was much slower than the two sisters, and he was still stuck in the part of the three forms of water vapor.As for Yang's mother and the old patriarch, the progress is really not very good, and they can barely understand the first two or three simplest books.However, although the progress is different, the few people eat enough to eat and wear warm clothes every day, discuss with each other while learning, and their mental state is much better than when they first came to Xiying.Yang San's thoughts of seeking death are almost gone. Instead, he always patiently breaks and explains each knowledge point to Yang's mother and the old patriarch repeatedly. It seems that only in this way can his life become more meaningful. .

Mother Yang was relieved and at the same time helped to relieve the old patriarch. They became more and more mellow, and their faces and eyes began to look bright, which seemed to be a kind of forgetfulness.

After listening to Xie Qian's summary, sister Hua was the first to speak.

Jasmine said: "What's so difficult about this? The vegetables in Xiying are respected as 'Monro vegetables' by everyone, so we only need to tell everyone that eating these Monro vegetables will bring health, and people will naturally come to buy them."

Osmanthus osmanthus: "My sister is right, not to mention that everyone's diet structure is single, adding some vegetables will be good for health. Why don't my sister and I make up some simple and easy-to-sing songs and share them with everyone on the festival day? Helpful for the greengrocer.”

Xie Qian was very pleased, there were still one or two people who were willing to support him at last, although the idea of ​​the sisters was still very simple, but it was finally a good start.Still following the teaching method of giving priority to encouragement and supplemented by guidance, Xie Qian greatly encouraged them, and encouraged them to publish more songs on the sacrificial day, in order to replace those wizards who harmed the country and the people as soon as possible.

Jasmine and sweet-scented osmanthus are used to being good students, and they often answer questions for the other three "students". Now their self-esteem has also risen accordingly, and they are no longer simply satisfied with the worship of believers.What's more, what Xie Qian asked them to do needed to use their brains and find ways. It was more challenging and interesting than living empty days in the temple, and the sense of accomplishment after completing it was also very great.Therefore, after receiving Xie Qian's praise, the two of them showed complacency on their faces, and lowered their heads to think about how to compose the ballad.

Mother Yang continued to speak.She said: "As far as I know, there is hardly one out of ten people in Mi County who have enough food and clothing. Except for [-]% of the rest who are still starving, the remaining [-]% or [-]% are struggling to make ends meet."

Xie Qian nodded.When the Flying Eagle Army registered these Lemo people who transited through the West Camp, they conducted a similar census, and Yang's mother's remarks obviously came from this.For this kind of current affairs and current situation news, Xie Qian has always upheld the idea that it is better to be open and transparent than concealing it. Therefore, during the learning process of these few people, Xie Qian will not only summarize and inform these information, but also ask questions at intervals. Ask them their opinions, and ask several people to submit a few small papers from time to time.After this training, Mother Yang is quite familiar with current affairs now.

After finishing her arguments, she continued: "According to the current sources of food, it can be roughly divided into several types. One is to work for Xiying and earn collective meals in Xiying. The other is to rely on one's own resources, search for food, or join the fishing team. Go down the river, or go into the mountains with the hunting team. Third, use handwork, labor, and material exchange to exchange food from other county residents. The county governor wants to sell vegetables, the first of which does not need to be purchased, and the third The county residents have no ability to buy, so they will not become potential customers. And the only one that is worth digging and developing is the second type."

Xie Qian suddenly realized something, and Yang's mother said again: "It's good to use the name of 'Monro' cuisine to promote, but if your own things and funds are not enough to make ends meet, everyone has suffered for more than half a year because of worshiping God. , Nowadays, will there be people who would exchange precious rations and a small amount of savings for Monroe dishes in order to worship the gods?"

Xie Qian nodded and said: "Indeed...no. I understand."

The old patriarch sighed, and said, "My lord, have you heard the story about the cultivation of seedlings?"

Xie Qian smiled and said: "Old man, there is no need to persuade me anymore. It is true that I have not thought carefully, but it is far from the point where weeding out seedlings will encourage growth. Since you always mean the same thing as Aunt Zhou, then I will entrust two bit, do another thing for me, okay?"

The two expressed doubts at the same time, but Xie Qian shook his head and did not reveal more.The carriage quickly drove into the county town, and first went to the county guard's mansion to get pens, inks, papers and inkstones, and several people came to the vegetable shop in a mighty manner, and sat around the small counter in the shop.

Xie Qiandao: "The matter has changed abruptly. I will dictate it first, and a few help to sort it out, and then translate it into Lemo. After the final draft, please copy a few minutes, and then you will distribute it."

So, while thinking about it, he said:

The official wants to build an official road leading directly to Jinyang City, and recruit 3000 idle county residents.Except for the suspension of rain and spring plowing season, the other twelve hours will not stop until the completion of the work.

The minimum cost is eight renminbi a day, not including three meals. I hope you will apply actively.

It was not a leaflet selling vegetables, but a notice to conquer corvee.

Can... conquer corvee? ?

Yang's mother, Yang San, and the old patriarch all forgot to copy in amazement. They all stared at Xie Qian in a daze, but the twin sisters, who were ignorant of the world, carefully wrote down the notice word for word before raising their heads in a daze. He asked, "Why do you want to build roads all of a sudden?"

Xie Qian said kindly: "After the road is built, you can take a carriage to Jinyang City to play. There are tall buildings, teahouses, and many novel snacks there. Do you want to go?"

Jasmine sweet-scented osmanthus: "Wow - really! Then can we help?"

Xie Qian: "Of course, you guys will play a very important role."

Jasmine sweet-scented osmanthus: "Wow-!! Great, you can save the world again!!"

Others: Everyone understands the truth, but the way the sheriff coaxes the children is too suspicious, right? !

The slander of the crowd failed to reach the frequency of the "prefect". Xie Qian picked up the notice copied by Jasmine and Osmanthus osmanthus without incident, compared and corrected the typo, added a few words, and put the revised one in the middle , said: "Just transcribe according to this, and you don't need to copy too much, five or six copies per person is enough... The salary is eight yuan a day, what do you think?"

The old patriarch was not in a hurry to pick up the pen, and stopped the twin sisters from picking up the pen, saying: "My lord, this treatment is really..."

Xie Qian: "Is it too little?"

Yang San couldn't help but said: "How can there be too few, there are simply too many, so many that they are so crowded that they want to join in!"

Xie Qian choked. He paid the wages according to the information he had read in the Imperial Academy. He thought there was nothing wrong with it. He was stunned for a long time before he said, "You can take official corvees... Isn't it all the price?"

Yang San sneered, and said: "I don't know where the county sheriff got the information, but five years ago, the previous county sheriff once used corvee. He only paid three dollars a day, and participants had to pay at least After half a year of service, the wages are paid, and only once every three months can I go home.”

"How come there are so few?" Xie Qian stood up in surprise, but he didn't need anyone present to explain, he quickly figured out the joints.

Serving corvee needs to be reported from bottom to top, until it is reported to the emperor, until the appropriation is approved, and then distributed to the place where the corvee is conquered.During the period, there will be approvals at all levels. Where construction needs to be started, how much money will be required in total, how much will be allocated from the treasury, and how much will be collected by the local government.If it involves a project in one county, it may take a year or a half to complete a set of procedures, and it may take as long as it takes to wait.But in fact, the term of office of the sheriff is only three to five years in total. If the appropriation cannot be waited for during the term of office, wouldn't this merit be equivalent to giving it to the next term in vain?But if you want to advance as soon as possible, the only way is to spend money to do things, exchange money for speed, come and go, the wool can only come from the sheep in the end, and the spent part can only be deducted from the appropriation of the treasury.In the end, the ones that were sent to the corvettes could have the level of three articles a day, and they were already regarded as a clean and honest sheriff.

Xie Qian sighed, and couldn't help feeling that everything is difficult at the beginning, and everything has a long way to go.Even if he has a forgiving heart, he is not willing to risk the world's dissatisfaction and openly oppose other surrounding counties and counties-after all, he will always have to do business with these places in the future, so there is no way to talk about development if there is a fight.Besides, he, a landlord, doesn't have a lot of food left in his family. He spends all his time and money, and the start-up capital is only a few million taels of silver stolen from the emperor's brother. , After the silver bills are rolled over, it is enough to make up for the underpayment from bonuses, benefits, subsidies and the like.
