Zheng Wuji proposed to the county magistrates to set up free schools, but no one objected.

Zheng Wuji asked Mr. Wu to be in charge of supervising this matter, and said to him: "Mr. Trouble, when you go around, choose a few honest and capable people for me, some of them can adapt to the situation, and some of them are stubborn .”

Zheng Wuji and the others had a lot of things to do when they came here, and they couldn't do it with too few capable people around them.

At this time, Mr. Wu has already helped Mrs. Song set up a tea shed not far from the yamen.

Firstly, he should have been there a long time ago, and secondly, there were a lot of gossips from those who greeted and sent off at the tea shed.

It's all like setting up an information point.

In addition, Zheng Wuji asked Mr. Wu to go to various counties to supervise the free schools, not just to do this one thing.

It is more convenient to have an in-depth understanding of the situation in each county, and it is best to find out about each county magistrate.

If you know yourself and the enemy, you will have a better chance of winning.

After Mr. Wu left, Zheng Wuji went back to the backyard.

Seeing Xu Chunjun doing needlework under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree, he walked over and said, "In another month, the sweet-scented osmanthus will also bloom. Remember that you like sweet-scented osmanthus and lotus paste cakes, so make some fresh ones then."

Xu Chunjun pursed his lips and smiled, and asked, "Aren't you busy?"

"Mr. Wu was sent down just now," Zheng Wuji said with a smile, "I can't be too diligent, otherwise I should alert people.

What's more, because of the birth of the fifth prince, the Holy Majesty pardoned the whole world. Except for the death penalty and exile for three thousand miles, the rest of the prisoners were pardoned and went home. "

"Mr. Wu really worked hard," Xu Chunjun said, "Cui's case is also thanks to him."

After hearing this, Zheng Wuji couldn't help but smirked, and said in a low voice: "Mr. Wu might be suspected of betraying his appearance. I see that Mrs. Song is very interested in him."

Xu Chunjun couldn't help covering his mouth, and then said seriously. : "Mr. Wu is used to idle clouds and wild cranes. I'm afraid he doesn't like having a family. Besides, he is our teacher, so we must stop making fun of him like this."

Zheng Wuji nodded, stopped talking about this matter, and asked Xu Chunjun: "What kind of work are you doing? But you are making shoes for me again? This is the most tiring thing, let the servants do it!"

"I should do it, otherwise what's the point of being idle all day?" Xu Chunjun likes to do needlework very much. The daughters of the Xu family, including Xu Lang, have been taught since childhood that female celebrities are important. It's my lord's birthday, and Yili will also make a set of clothes, shoes and socks."

Hearing what she said, Zheng Wuji couldn't help but patted himself on the head, and said: "If you don't tell me, I almost forgot."

"My lord is too busy." Xu Chunjun said, "It's possible that I can't remember."

Zheng Wuji rubbed his chin and thought for a moment, then said: "Since it's my birthday, I should make good use of it, otherwise it would be a pity."

"What do you want to write about this?" Xu Chunjun asked with a smile.

Zheng Wuji leaned close to Xu Chunjun's ear and whispered something, then asked with a smile: "What do you think of this idea, ma'am?"

"Sure enough, it's a good idea!" Xu Chunjun's eyes lit up, "We can also play a series of tricks, one loop after another, and this scene can be sung until the end of next year."

Zheng Wuji clapped his hands and said with a smile: "The one who knows me is also my wife! You are as beautiful as a flower, a confidant and a confidante, with a wife like this, what more can a husband ask for?"

Two groceries in the house happened to pass by, and they whispered: "Our Lord Zhizhou only has such a majesty for a while when he is in the hall, and when he comes back to the house, he only knows that he will circle around his wife. son shelf."

The one said: "No wonder people say that men who are more afraid of their wives are more prosperous. Look at that dead ghost of my family. He looks at me like an enemy, and he is only worthy of leading a donkey!"

Before Xu Chunjun and Zheng Wuji took office, they had already discovered several major disadvantages of Chenzhou through various places.

One is land annexation, the other is business monopoly, and the third is difficult to apply for government orders.

If you want to change the world of Chenzhou, it will not be done overnight.

But there is also one thing, as long as Chen Zhou changes, the world will also change accordingly.

King Huaiyang's party members have been wiped out, and at least half of the ministers in the court have been replaced, and the situation is bound to be a new one.

At this moment, Ziling brewed tea, and asked a little girl to come up with a plate of fruit, smiled and said to Xu Chunjun and Zheng Wuji: "Girl, my uncle must be thirsty, let's moisten your throat first."

Xu Chunjun asked her, "Why don't you see your girl?"

"It's picking crickets in the rockery behind!" Ziling said, "How can it look like a girl's house? It's naughty all day long."

"Children just like to play." Xu Chunjun said, "Besides, girls are sensible early, but they can't be naughty for a few years."

Ziling said again: "Miss Qianer asked me to find out how many old people over 60 years old there are in this state. I have already gathered them. There are 380 people in total."

When she was in the capital, Ziling also helped Xu Chunjun with housekeeping, and could understand the accounts.

After hearing this, Zheng Wuji asked: "What are you going to do Ma'am?"

Xu Chunjun smiled and said: "My lord will finish the officialdom in Chenzhou, and then those merchants will come one after another.

It's just that it's not easy for them to pay a visit when it's not time for adults to take a bath.

Since the fat sheep are delivered to the door, at least a handful of wool must be scooped up.

I asked Zi Ling to make a clear count of the elderly over 60 years old. I wanted to wait until the Double Ninth Festival to give wine and cotton clothes to these elderly people.

As for the money, of course it was paid by the wealthy businessmen. "

Naturally these businessmen came to bribe the officials, and Zheng Wuji couldn't really embezzle, but letting these people go for nothing was too uneconomical.

These businessmen colluded with officials and accumulated a lot of ill-gotten wealth.

Anyway, officials from all over the country have precedents for raising donations from local merchants and gentry, and they also have the duty to promote filial piety.

"Good idea! Good idea!" Zheng Wuji clapped his palms and laughed, "A little money is not a trivial matter to these people, but to ordinary people, a cotton coat is a big deal.

Originally, I also intended to be a person who baited for fame and reputation, a person who was very happy with his achievements.

So this move must be taken. "

Zheng Wuji had already discussed with Xu Chunjun that when he came to Chenzhou, he must not show his status as an upright and upright official.

It is to be both good and evil, so that the other party can't tell whether it is an enemy or a friend, and then fish in troubled waters and wait for the opportunity to move.

At this time there was still some time before lunch, Zheng Wuji went to the front to take care of some business.

Xu Chunjun also thought it was time to write a letter to his family, they had been here for half a month.

You have to tell your family that everything is safe and tell them not to worry about it.

Ask Ah Mino to bring the Four Treasures of the Study, and she writes on the stone table in the courtyard.

There is a breeze in the courtyard, and the ink is easy to dry.

Once you're done writing, you can pack it up and send it out.

Xu Chunjun wrote a letter to his family, and after reporting his safety, he wrote a separate letter to the third aunt and Jiang Nuan.

She didn't write to Cen Yunchu, she felt that Huaiyang King was very likely to check the letters they sent.

It's best to keep in touch with Cen Yunchu.
