stand back, let me come

Chapter 286 286: The poor poor poor poor

rich?

Shen Tang's eyes lit up.

In the eyes of several officials, it seemed as if it had been hungry for a long time, and finally saw the prey of the beast, and its eyes brightened several times.Shen Tang smiled and asked them to introduce more, they were not sure what the new county guard meant for a while.

Ready to deal with local snakes so that you can fool around?
It's not impossible.

In the poor and remote area of ​​Heyin, you have to obediently coil up when the dragon comes. Even if you are the sheriff, if you want to live a good life, you have to please these local snakes.These officials were often ridiculed by several families, and their former colleagues could not bear this kind of grievance. They were either lured into collaborating with them, or left with their seals, or pretended to be deaf and dumb as if they did not know, otherwise——

It was a really hard day.

A few of them can stick to it because they have been too miserable. They have not received their monthly salary for thirteen months, and their family is so poor that they are almost eating dirt.There is really nothing to bully, nor a threat, nor even worth buying.Getting them to do something is no more difficult than crushing an ant to death.

Although I don't know why such a young sheriff was appointed, but he understands the world and knows how to deal with troubles, so he may live longer.In the blink of an eye, the same thought flashed in the hearts of several officials, and the corners of Gu Chi's mouth couldn't hold back when he heard it.

Their Shen Lang came with a butcher knife.

Sophisticated?

Will something happen?

It's okay for those local snakes to know their senses, but if they don't, the butcher's knife in their hand will fall mercilessly on their necks.Of course, Gu Chi thinks that in Shen Tang's poor and crazy state, even if those "rich households" are willing to get acquainted, the end may not be good.

Who made Shen Tang poor?

She is poor, so she can't see the wicked being richer than her.

Standing on the high city wall, Shen Tang quietly listened to several officials deliberating about the situation of each family.Her face was as cold as frost, but her heart was as hot as fire. She wished she could hold a sword and rob Fuji right now.Shen Tang nodded sometimes, and sometimes responded with a few words.

The official said: "...that's almost the case."

Shen Tang smiled and said: "Wang Chao, you go back and find a good day, let's bring some generous gifts and come to visit, so I know you are familiar."

Several officials were not happy when they heard this.

It is a good thing that the new sheriff is "sensible" and has a long life, but when he first arrived, he was so flattering and sycophant, such a shameless behavior, it is indeed secretly disgusting.It's just that their complexions are already bad, and their faces are a little darker, which can't be seen clearly.

Several officials have their own thoughts.

Gu Chi held back a smile and cupped his hands in response.

"Go back, the wind is strong in the city." Shen Tang tightened his clothes, planning how to kill Mrs. Zhang, the landlord's family has money and food, first take some money from them to give the people under the New Year, "In recent years, the river Is Yin's foreigner registered in the register?"

Although he was disdainful in his heart, he still had to get by on the surface, saying: "There were still a few years ago, but not in the past two years."

Shen Tang was curious: "Why?"

The official said helplessly: "The brush and ink are simple and economical."

Yes, the reason is that absurd.

Although the production of bamboo slips is relatively simple, there are bamboo forests nearby, the materials are easy to store, the cost is kept as low as possible, and the pen and ink are not too expensive, but the Fugu in Heyin Zhisuo can't even pay the officials' monthly salary, and the treasury only has dust.

The few pens and ink in the slips of the book should be kept for recording official documents and government affairs, and there is no time to spare for other things.

Shen Tang: "..."

It is true that those who hear it are sad, and those who see it cry.

Fu Gu is also considered poor and elegant.

However, it can also be seen from the side that these officials have good intentions and do their jobs within the scope of their ability.Not really a good guy, and definitely not a bad guy either.

Shen Tang didn't intend to let them "transfer disease".

There are few people now, and it is only one person who can catch a strong man.

"...So, it's hard to find someone..." Seeing that the official didn't talk to him, Shen Tang could only look for a ladder by himself.

Gu Chi cooperated on one side.

"My lord, do you miss San Niangzi?"

The so-called "Three Niangzi" is just a casual talk by him.

Didn't Shen Tang have a "sister who didn't leave the fifth server and went to He Yin's relatives", the focus is on such a person rather than the order of teeth.

She said, "It's a little bit."

Gu Chi continued, raising his voice deliberately to ensure that several officials could hear their conversation: "My lord, don't worry too much. We have already come to He Yin, and this place is only this big. Find someone It shouldn't be difficult..."

Shen Tang sighed, "I hope so."

One of the officials is also considered interesting.

"Shen Jun is looking for someone?"

Shen Tang nodded: "Well, there is an elder sister who has not released the fifth server. If she hadn't kindly extended a helping hand in the early years, I am afraid that I would not have lived to this age, let alone achieve what I am today. Afterwards, my elder sister left with her parents. It is said that Here comes He Yin. The kindness of a drop of water should be repaid with a spring. Thinking about my family now, I want to reunite with my sister and repay the kindness of the past."

The officials turned pale when they heard the words.

Thinking about the new sheriff is not without merit.

If you know how to repay your kindness, your character will not be too bad.

The official asked again, "Where did that lady come from?"

Shen Tang was not sure.

"Maybe it was two years ago, or maybe it was three years ago? There were wars in various places before, and I don't know much about it." Shen Tang showed shame on his face, and the information he gave was also very vague, but the officials didn't think about it. Just continue to reduce the favorability.

The flames lasted three months, and the family letter was worth ten thousand gold.

Even in times of peace and prosperity, it is not easy to communicate, let alone a time of war when everyone is in danger and precarious.

Just living is extremely difficult.

"Shen Jun, don't worry, you will know after checking the household register."

Shen Tang nodded, "Yes".

In order to see more about the situation in Fugu City, Shen Tang deliberately asked the officials to take him around half a circle—what he saw while standing on the city wall had a different visual impact than what he saw at a close distance.

Looking at [-] to [-] percent of the dilapidated houses in the city, I dare not think how the common people rely on these houses to shelter from wind, rain, cold and heat.

This first snowfall, I don't know how many people will freeze to death.

Shen Tang deliberately kept himself from thinking about this question.

In order to make the play more realistic, Shen Tang asks Kang Shi and Qishan to help him check the household register—in name, to find the whereabouts of "sister", but in fact, to catch the pigtails of several "rich households"— —With their arrogant style in Heyin, it is impossible not to leave a criminal record, and there are probably quite a few...

If it had been before, these people might have destroyed the evidence, burned it up in a big fire, and left no proof.

But He Yin has been in their hands for too long.

The so-called "prefects" who were suppressed and killed by them are no less than five fingers. What can Shen Tang, a 12-year-old boy, become?They have the final say on the land of Heyin, and the king's imperial order is not easy to use.Arrogant and domineering, naturally not afraid.

Kang Shi choked on the accumulated dust and coughed.

He randomly picked up a volume, glanced at it with the light from the window, and said, "Do you need to find it specially? Grab it."

Qishan: "Leave this alone, put them all away."

Turn out a roll and throw it into a wooden frame.

Kang Shi looked at the somewhat blurred handwriting on it. The short book has been stored for some years, and there is mold on the edges and corners, which shows how long it has been piled up in this room.Victims have nowhere to go for justice.Every volume is shed with the blood and tears of the common people.

Chu Yao, Gong Shuwu, and Zhao Feng were responsible for arranging the people they brought, selecting elites from them, and replenishing the empty government.Now that he has settled down in Heyin, everything should be arranged.In a few days, the government will be quite "lively".

Also, one more thing.

Shen Tang asked Gu Chi to calculate the monthly salaries of the various officials, and paid for them from his own pocket for three months.

The rest will be made up after Zhang's fat sheep is swallowed.It is inevitable that there are Zhang's faction's eyes and ears among these people, Shen Tang only cried and said that he is currently in short supply, and the expenses of the people under his account are too high, so he cannot make up his monthly salary for the time being.

Let them be patient for another month or two.

The monthly salary of these three months will be taken home for a good year, and when the spring farming starts, she will find a way to make up for the big guys.

The officials were surprised.

He never expected Shen Tang to do this.

Even though they were making insinuations and begging for the idea of ​​getting the monthly salary in arrears and then moving the disease, they also knew in their hearts that the possibility was unlikely.

Shen Tang was not the one who owed them their monthly salaries, she was just a new official who came to take up the post, and she had no obligation to pay them privately.

She is open-minded if she is willing to pay for it.

If you don't want to pay, the officials have nothing to say.

They were all ready to be cheeky and find an opportunity to raise this matter, but they didn't expect Shen Tang to lend a helping hand half a day after he arrived.

People are so kind, they can't be shameless, get the monthly salary, then leave, at least they have to work for half a month, or they will feel bad.

It was getting dark and everyone dispersed.

Shen Tang asked Gu Chi: "Do they have any questions?"

"The mind is not bad, but there are no eyes and ears."

Shen Tang deliberately took Gu Chi with him, and let the officials lead the way around, not only to understand the situation in Fugu City, but also to test their details.If someone like Mrs. Zhang is inserted in, sweep them out as soon as possible, so as not to have long nights and dreams.

"Then use it for now."

After all, they are all migrant workers, and life is not easy.

Shen Tang pulled out the manpower he could use now, and he could barely scrape together a "grass team". In the next few days, he had to come up with a plan to rectify Fugu as soon as possible.Especially as the weather is getting colder and colder, many common people may not be able to survive.

"Renovating the house... requires money!"

"Relief for the common people... money!"

"Cultivating wasteland... requires money!"

"Recruiting refugees... requires money!"

Money money money money money money money...

Shen Tang wished he could turn stones into gold!

"There are so many rich people in the world, why can't I be one more..." She held her forehead with a headache, looking at the plan that she couldn't start with, her left eye was full of "deficit" and her right eye was full of "money", " Damn! Sure enough, I still want to kill the local tyrant!"

"It's really too difficult..."

Shen Tang seemed to have his spine taken away, and he lay limply on the old desk with peeling paint.In the end, Gu Chi, who was helping to read the accounts, cast her a cool look, and said ruthlessly: "My lord, be quiet, this wooden case is not very strong."

The case legs are still wobbly.

Squeaking loudly.

Shen Tang just wanted to say that he wasn't that heavy, but the next second, his upper body lost all weight suddenly, and he fell to the ground with a clang along with the piles of simple books and books on the table.There were also a few letters that hit her on the head, and Shen Tang lay on her stomach blankly, with a loveless expression on her face.

"Gan!"

(╯‵ ′)╯︵┻━┻

She has never been wronged like this since she grew up!

The table case is not bad in the morning and not in the evening, but she fell down so lightly, follow her to fight against it, right?Shen Tang had a ferocious expression, and the wild beast inside was about to break out of its cage.

I can't wait to kick this pile of unsightly things away!

Gu Chi laughed very shamelessly.

Shen Tang got up.

Gritting his teeth, he said, "Are you still laughing?"

Gu Chi teased: "It's not auspicious to cry."

Shen Tang: "..."

The integrity of Wenxin scholars is indeed a mystery.

"...I think we will have a meeting tomorrow to discuss where to start... By the way, how much food do we have left?"

Shen Tang really wanted to do some work-for-relief, which could not only provide disaster relief, revitalize the economy, but also do a good job in construction. This method is not new.However, after glancing at the master manual that Lin Feng handed over, she knew that it was a bit difficult to implement.

Seeing her sighing, Gu Chi said, "Although we are in short supply, we are still rich in money and food, and it won't be a problem to last until the beginning of spring."

Shen Tang was not comforted at all.

She put down the master book and waved to Lin Feng.

"Did Ling De read Yanzi Chunqiu?"

Not long after Lin Feng obtained the way of literati, Chu Yao discussed with himself which characters should be chosen for Lin Feng—because this world has the setting of literary heart and bravery, and as one of its identity symbols, the monogram of literary heart and the symbol of bravery and tiger will be Engraving the name taboo of the owner to show the identity is equivalent to an "identity card". It is generally believed that the early selection of characters helps to refine the literary mind and boldness.

Words are usually taken long in advance.

Don't have to wait for the coronation.

But Lin Feng is a woman, so she should wait until her parents or her future husband get the hairpin, but she is also a sure-fire literary scholar, and she should follow the customs of literary scholars.

Shen Tang and Chu Yao thought for two days before choosing the word "Lingde".

To be heard and to be hoped for is both virtuous and virtuous.

Except it doesn't sound like a girl.

However, Lin Feng was very satisfied knowing the meaning of the sign, and told everyone that he had a decent reputation.

Lin Feng nodded: "I only read a few articles a few days ago."

Shen Tang rubbed the position where he was hurt by the Jianshu, changed to a comfortable but not so dignified sitting posture, and said: "Then you probably haven't read the inner part. , is a pretty good idea.”

Lin Feng was still puzzled.

Gu Chi understood Shen Tang's plan: "Duke Jing was hungry at that time, and Yan Zi wanted to be angry with the people, but the Duke would not allow it. It should be used as a bed for the road, and Yan Zi ordered the officials to pay more for his rent. It is not fun for three years. Three years later, the Taiwan Success and prosperity. Is the lord trying to emulate Yanzi?"

To put it simply, there was a famine during Jinggong's period, and Yanzi wanted to provide relief, but Jinggong didn't allow it.It happened at this time that the official bedroom palace was being built, so Yan Zi asked the officials to recruit hungry people to build it, raised wages, and did not rush the construction period to build it slowly.

Three years later, the palace was repaired.

The hungry also received relief.

This is also "relief with work".

Yan Zi's goal of helping the hungry people was achieved, the hungry people passed the difficult time, and Jing Gong also gained the palace and good reputation.

Shen Tang smiled wryly: "I do intend to do this, but I don't have the food to do it, so it's just a headache..."

If it’s just to help the victims, it’s okay to give a little less food, as long as people don’t starve to death, it’s fine to lie still all day to reduce energy consumption and survive the most difficult moments.

But work-for-relief is different. People have to work until they are full. Only when they are full can they have the strength to do heavy work. The cost of work-for-relief is several times that of simple disaster relief!

Yanzi also ordered officials to pay more attention to his rent.

Increase wages for recruited hungry people.

If you have money, you will give money, if you have no money, you will give food.

The food that Jing Gong refused to distribute was delivered to the hungry people in a reasonable and legal manner in the form of wages.

The issue is--

How much money and food does Shen Tang have?
