Sheng Fu

Chapter 226
Chen Dian got up and bowed deeply, and said sincerely, "Thank you, sir."

Han Liang smiled and said nothing, many things can only end here.

Chen Dian turned around and left the Governor's Mansion. This trip was not in vain, and he didn't know that the 300,000 taels of gold was for the love of one of the Seven Laws.

In the turbulent flow, it is rare to be clear and pleasant.

As for the flat land where the mountain people are resettled, it is located in a plain area in the southeast of Boya County. Naturally, Chen Dian will not build large-scale construction projects here, but only build houses suitable for the people to live in. However, it comes from public funds. It is estimated that after the construction here, it will naturally There is a well-off atmosphere.

Before becoming an official, Chen Dian never thought that he would do these things himself. Like most scholars, if he strategizes and takes charge of the overall situation, a splendid family will emerge.

He also gradually understood Xie Yiming's deep meaning. If he hadn't valued Chen Dian highly, Chen Dian probably wouldn't have come to the north to become an official.

Today's Chen Dian no longer thinks about the dispute between the North and the South, or the dispute between the temples, and it is the real reason to do something for the common people.

After a short rest in the county guard's mansion, he led a group of followers and drove to the deep mountains.

On the one hand, you can travel to the remote mountain scenery, and on the other hand, you can also relax and experience the sufferings of the people at close range, which is also helpful for your own practice.

Seeing this situation, his aides were also very relieved, the young master of the aristocratic family has gradually acquired the mellow demeanor of a great Confucian.

But when he entered the depths of the mountain, he just gave an outline of the plan in his mind, and then he was rejected.

Nagano Village, the head of the village.

The village chief was a white-haired old man, and he sat on the stone table with Chen Dian. I don't know if it was because he didn't understand what Chen Dian said, or because of other reasons, but he kept smiling kindly.

There is a huge gap between the northern and southern accents, and the old man in the deep mountain can speak without understanding the words of the young master from the south.

But Chen Dian has tried his best to communicate with the old village head in the local dialect of Boya County, and sometimes he has to laugh a little bit to show the old village head's affection.

In the place where the poor mountains are open to the wild, the people are rough and illiterate, but it doesn't mean they don't understand anything.

Mountain people have their own rules of doing things.

In desperation, Chen Dian had no choice but to shout loudly: "Grandpa, I plan to invite you down the mountain this time. The entire Boya County will develop water production business, and it is the current policy to move the mountain people to the ground."

Only then did the old village head understand, but there were many people around the old village head, either in their prime or middle age, as well as some women and children watching the fun, and they all looked at Chen Dian with malicious intent.

The old man pondered: "But we have lived here for generations and migrated to the flat land. What do we eat and drink?"

"There are also graves of our ancestors in the mountains. If we leave, who will pay homage to them?"

Chen Dian said patiently: "After the development of aquatic products, the water resources will be evenly distributed, and each household will get more for their work."

"As for the ancestral graves in the mountains, after cremation and putting them in the urn, they can still worship normally."

When the old village chief heard this, he immediately became furious and said, "Nonsense, how can you move so easily in the mountain where your ancestors are buried forever? You will be punished by God!"

When the rest of the villagers heard this, they immediately exploded.

Originally, he didn't like this young official, but when he came, he wanted them to move to the flat land and give up their industries in the mountains, which had already crossed the bottom line of these villagers.

A middle-aged man with a blushing face and a thick neck pointed at Chen Dian and cursed: "You dog official, you clearly want to drive us all to death."

"If you want to kill, kill, how can there be so much nonsense."

The spittle of the scolder even sprayed Chen Dian all over the face.

This one of the Eight Gus suddenly felt an unbearable itchiness on his face, he still apologized and said with a smile: "I have absolutely no intention of doing so, I just want to make Boya County prosperous and strong, so that everyone can live comfortably."

After saying that, an old woman with a bamboo basket came forward quickly, spit on Chen Dian's face, and scolded in a dry voice: "It's clear that we want to give up our property in the mountains, betray our ancestors, and say It’s so sweet, you’re here, and you haven’t seen us give some real money to every family, but there’s a lot to say in the scene.”

The entourage that Chen Dian brought was no more than ten people, all of them went into battle lightly and did not carry any weapons. As soon as someone showed an angry face, a young man of middle age rushed forward with a machete in his hand.

"Why, do you still want to beat people? Don't even look at where this is. Since you want us to die, at worst, you will die. I will kill one today to save money, and kill two to make money."

The old village chief also looked at Chen Dian covetously, with the look of you daring to try.

Chen Dian hastily shouted softly: "Stop!"

This was an unpleasant meeting, and the majestic sheriff was treated inappropriately by the old village chief.

Chen Dian got up to bid farewell, left Nagano Village, and walked in the mountain path. Chen Dian propped one hand on the towering tree, waved slightly, grabbed a large green leaf, and wiped the spittle off his face.

He punched through the towering tree suddenly, and said through gritted teeth: "I am one of the eight nobles, how have I ever suffered such a shameful humiliation!"

The staff hurriedly stepped forward to comfort them: "There are many troublesome people in the poor mountains and bad waters, sir, please calm down, don't hurt your vitality."

Chen Dian tried his best to calm down, but remembering being spit on the face by the old woman in the mountain, it was hard to swallow.

With a gloomy face, he said: "Go to other villages to see, don't worry, I won't reveal the fluctuation of true energy to ordinary people."

"Though I'd love to do that too."

When the aides heard this, they also had mixed feelings in their hearts. This is generally the case that the people are afraid of bad officials and not afraid of good officials.

Reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles. Thousands of books are books after all. Even if they contain vulgar content, they will only hurt the eyes, but not the face. The scenery of this journey is completely different.

Chen Dian forced himself to calm down, but when he went to other villages, although he didn't get spit on his face, it was disgusting enough.

Some elderly women in the mountains, without any regard for face, took off their clothes and rushed towards Chen Dian.

Some ignorant children made balls out of mud and hit Chen Dian.

People of the older generation pretend that they are deaf and cannot hear anything.

What's more, they deliberately led Chen Dian towards the cesspit.

In short, there are plenty of ways to make this one of the Eight Gus quit in spite of the difficulties.

Two days later, Chen Dian went down the mountain in disgrace, his long hair was disheveled, and his body was full of filth, as were the staff around him. As for those followers, they never raised a finger at the residents of the mountain, but they were generally presentable.

There is a clear river at the foot of the mountain. Chen Dian stepped into the river and washed himself in the fast flowing water.

Wanting to cry but without tears, he said: "Such an experience can be called soul-stirring!"

The staff said implicitly: "Young master, doing these things by yourself is ultimately overkill. You might as well ask the Lin family and Wen family to help. They are locals, so they should be able to settle this matter properly."

From the very beginning, Chen Dian wanted people from the two major families to settle the matter, but he is the sheriff, and if he wanted to be recognized by the local government, he had to let the people of Boya County know that he was really a good official, so he took the trouble to come here. do these things.

The son of the family is also a cannibal.

Chen Dian bowed his head helplessly and said, "Alright, I will go to Boya Courtyard and ask the two old people to deal with this matter."

He really has no choice.

County magistrates from all over the country didn't take him seriously, and many orders were obeyed and violated, and the mountain people didn't take him seriously, which caused deep psychological harm to Mr. Chen...
