Chapter 664 County Honor, This Is What the People Want

"Xianzun, if you don't agree, I won't get up."

County magistrate Zhang knelt on the ground, Li Chaosheng pretended to help, but he also pretended not to get up. This thing is a tacit understanding. In ancient times, emperors had to make three requests and three concessions when they ascended the throne. Although Mianchi County is not big, but The etiquette must be complete.

"Hey, County Magistrate Zhang, your parents in the same county are doing well. Although there are bullies like Zhao Huhu, I found out that County Magistrate Zhang is an upright official. Since he took office, he has never imposed any exorbitant taxes. It's not easy anymore."

Zhang County Magistrate immediately said: "What the county lord said is that the lives of the people are not easy. I can't bear to impose exorbitant taxes on them. It is Zhang who is already incompetent to let Zhao Huohu bring disaster here. Zhang please resign, please ask the county magistrate to act as the magistrate of Mianchi temporarily."

"This, this is not good."

"Xianzun, please don't refuse. Since ancient times, the virtuous people have lived in this position. I have no virtue and incompetence. I will be punished by heaven if I occupy a high position. The county is a person who is favored by heaven and earth. I should sit on this honorable position." , This is the blessing of Ming Dynasty and the blessing of the country, please don't refuse the county honor, the big guy said it was right!"

Zhang Zhixian saw that he might not be worthy enough, so he decided to persuade those people to persuade him. As long as Li Chaosheng took over the position of Mianchi County magistrate from him, it was not about following the orders of the people, doing justice for the heavens, and getting rid of himself as the county magistrate. His own life is still guaranteed, Zhang Zhixian is very pleased with this, Li Chaosheng is not Li Zicheng, if Li Zicheng encounters such a thing, he will definitely kill himself without saying a word.

Li Zicheng is a complete saboteur. As long as any official doesn't agree with him, he will take his life, but Li Chaosheng is not. The county is famous for its benevolence and righteousness.

At this time, Zhang Zhixian looked at the people and said, "People, do you want Li Xianzun to be your parent officer, or me to be your parent officer?"

After hearing this, the common people said in unison: "Li Xianzun, you can be our parent officer."

"Yes, Li Xianzun, you can be our parent officer."

After listening to everyone's words, Li Chaosheng hesitated. He had a lot of acting on the surface. Although he sometimes looked very contrived, in the eyes of outsiders, it was an act of a benevolent and righteous man. I always feel that this person is a little impatient, and his purpose is not pure.

"Li Xianzun, why are you still hesitating? All [-] households in the county want the county zun to be our county zun. Please follow the public opinion."

"Yes, the county lord and I are all willing to be the people of Lantian. Tomorrow we will erect the Lantian boundary marker on the boundary of Mianchi County, and ask the county lord to be our parent official."

"Yes, county lord, please follow the public opinion."

The common people kowtowed like pounding garlic and begged, Li Chaosheng was ready to let go, and Zhang Zhixian also saw Li Chaosheng's intentions, thinking that as long as he worked harder, he could make him agree.

At this time, one of the people's representatives, Lengtou Qing, shouted: "Master Zhang, what you worry about is only Zhang Zhixian, but he has done nothing since he took office. People say that although Zhang Shixiang is not corrupt, he does not make decisions for the people. There is a saying that being an official does not make decisions for the people, it is better to go home and sell rice.”

"Sell rice? Don't you sell sweet potatoes?"

Li Chaosheng was a little puzzled, isn't this saying that being an official and not making decisions for the people, why not go home and sell sweet potatoes?

"Hey, he is also worthy of selling sweet potatoes. Sweet potatoes are the grain of Lantian, and he is not worthy of selling them!"

Hearing Li Chaosheng's words, the leader of the 70-year-old man spat at the feet of Zhang County Magistrate, and said bitterly, Zhang Zhixian's face turned black when he saw the old thick phlegm, I ask you to plead with Li Chaosheng, Let him be the county magistrate, but if you praise him, you can praise him, why are you belittling me?

Zhang Zhixian really wanted to scold the street, but he didn't dare to directly put forward a shocking idea because of a big brother next to him: "Xianzun, if you really can't get over the hurdle in your heart, please sit down for a while, and we don't bother you to do it. Hang County Magistrate Zhang above the city gate, and the county magistrate will not feel guilty when he dies!"

"Okay, okay, that's a good idea, I'll hang it up, for the sake of the people of Mianchi, the little old man, I'm willing to take this responsibility, Huzi, Ergou, you go and hold down the county magistrate Zhang, the little old man puts on a rope, and once Kick down the city wall, and you can hand over the county magistrate of Mianchi to the magistrate."

"Okay, Grandpa Zhang, let's come."

At this time, the two strong young men kneeling in the last row were about to get up.

County magistrate Zhang was so frightened that he hugged Li Chaosheng's thigh: "The magistrate, save me!"

Li Chaosheng gave Li Chaomeng a wink, and Li Chaomeng pulled County Magistrate Zhang up from behind. At this time, Li Chaosheng said: "Magistrate Zhang, don't be afraid, our Lantian is a reasonable place, we can't hurt you, your Mianchi County, I agree to return to Lantian. You can decide whether to stay or not. The property in your mansion can be preserved. I, Lantian, will not interfere. If you want to stay in Lantian and continue to live, you can be your rich man with peace of mind. If you don’t want to, you can leave Lantian , find your career path by yourself.”

"Thank you county lord."

After hearing this, County Magistrate Zhang fell to his knees again and kowtowed to thank him.

The old man Zhang Laosan looked at the kneeling magistrate Zhang and said, "Master Zhang, don't you really need to hang him as an example?"

Li Chaosheng looked at the old man who wanted to be a hero, and smiled bitterly. The old man wanted to be a hero and wanted to be crazy. He wanted to improve his reputation by hanging the magistrate Zhang. He has been alive for a few years, if he hanged a county magistrate for the sake of the people of Mianchi before his death, it will at least become a good story in the local area. The father of the land.

The old man's naked eyes made County Magistrate Zhang feel like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered. For the first time, he found that the group of humble people under his rule were so terrifying. Although he didn't harm the people before, his attitude towards the people They are also like cattle and sheep. After all, when they see themselves, they kowtow to call them grand masters. Who would treat people who kowtow to themselves as having the same status as themselves?

So he always felt that being a county magistrate was like herding cattle and sheep. As long as he treated the cattle and sheep seriously, he would be considered a good official.

But today I just found out, where did the cattle and sheep come from? This is obviously a pack of wolves, and if they start being ruthless, they will kill you, and you will not be given a chance to talk nonsense.

Look at these people, they all want to hang themselves to death.

Only at this moment did he really understand that sentence, the people can carry a boat or capsize it!
When you represent the imperial court and have the power of life and death over them, they are sheep, but if you lose the power of life and death over them, then they are terrible tigers and leopards. , that would tear you to shreds in an instant.

Li Chaosheng said with a smile at this time: "Okay, folks, you are now the people of Lantian. Since you are the people of Lantian, you must abide by the laws of Lantian. Next, I will send the village head to take over our Mianchi County and send troops to garrison our Mianchi. County, similarly, we will sign our own militia in Mianchi County and form our local militia group. Our slogan in Lantian has always been that we must protect our own hometown. Is the big guy right?"

"Yes, the county lord is right, I will join the militia."

"I am also participating."

At this moment, they were called Huzi by the old man Zhang just now, and the two young and strong laborers of Ergou stood up and expressed their willingness to join the militia group defending Mianchi. Vigorous."

The old man Zhang laughed and said: "Yes, the county lord, that tiger is my grandson, hehehe..."

"Okay, there is a future, there is a future, and next we will not only form a militia group, but also reform the grain fields. Before the reform of the grain fields, we will investigate and clean up the big households in Mianchi County, just like Zhao Huohu , there is one, and half of us will not tolerate it."

"When we finish solving them, we will confiscate the land they are greedy for, and conduct a second measurement of the land in Mianchi County. At that time, according to our Lantian policy, we will distribute the land to everyone according to the head. At that time, the big guys will have On my own land, I can see the seedlings on my own land every day, and I am not happy."

"happy."

Hearing this, the common people grinned and saw their back molars. They wanted to merge into Lantian. Didn't they just hear that Lantian people lived a good life and could have their own land?
The big guy is inexplicably excited, take a look, isn't this good day coming soon?
Li Chaosheng continued: "However, the current year is not good, either floods or droughts, this is a disaster for us people, but it doesn't matter, we already have a very sufficient disaster control strategy in Lantian , At that time, we will mobilize our people to carry out water conservancy construction in our hometown, dig reservoirs, build ditches, divert water for irrigation, and ensure our grain harvest."

The common people nodded after hearing this. They have experienced the horrors of natural disasters in these years. In these years, which family has not been hungry, and which village has not starved to death.

When the disaster year comes, there will be no crops. Isn't this forcing the common people to die?

So digging reservoirs, building ditches, these ordinary people are willing, but unfortunately no one started, and no one is willing to invest money in it.

Li Chaosheng said: "Folks, the Lantian County Government pays for digging reservoirs, building ditches, and diverting water for irrigation, but I hope the big guys can help me."

After hearing this, the old man Zhang said: "Don't worry, the county lord, dig a reservoir for us, build ditches, and irrigate our own crops. How can we not help, even if we are exhausted, we will be happy!"

After hearing this, Li Chaosheng said: "Old Zhang, it's not that exaggerated. How could he be exhausted? Haha, don't worry, our help in Lantian County is not just for help. Although we don't pay wages, we take care of food and food!"

"it is good!"

Hearing this, the people below immediately cheered. Originally, they were willing to work for nothing, but now they are in charge of food, that’s nothing to say, and they must do it. Whoever is lazy to work for their own family will be shameless and cut themselves off from the folks ah.

The old man Zhang was overwhelmed by Li Chaosheng's words. At this moment, he looked at Li Chaosheng and said, "Your Majesty, don't look at the old man, I am seventy-one, but I can pick up baskets, and I can do it too!"

Li Chaosheng smiled and said: "Don't, old man, don't get tired. You are an elder in Mianchi County. You have to live a long life. Seeing that Mianchi is getting better and better. As for these physical labors, young people will capable."

"Yes, Grandpa, don't be brave. I'll do more and help you get your share."

"Okay, okay, with the county lord, we have hope in Mianchi, thank you, county lord!"

Li Chaosheng waved his hand and said, "I want to thank you, big guy, for your support to Lan Tian, ​​okay, let's go back and rest, think about who has been bullied these years, figure things out, find Your corresponding chief made it clear that they will, remember folks, when Lantian is here, you will no longer be oppressed, you will not be destroyed, we have revenge for injustice, revenge for revenge, big guy The good day has come."

"Oh, thank you County Venerable, long live the County Venerable!"

After hearing this, the people were so excited that they shouted loudly one by one, long live the county lord, long live the county lord.

All of a sudden, Mianchi was filled with the voice of the county lord Long live, and the big families in Mianchi, especially those who used to be domineering and persecuted the common people, all of them turned pale with fright.

They knew their doomsday was coming, Zhao Huhu was shot, they saw it, and now the mudlegs are going to find Li Chaosheng in Lantian collectively, they are almost sure that Li Chaosheng will definitely stand by the mudlegs, it is said that they are going to redress their grievances At the conference, the landlords and tyrants only felt that their livers and gallbladders were torn apart.

"Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, why are you shivering?"

At this time, in a high gate compound in the city, the old man who used to be domineering, heard the shouts on the city wall in the compound, couldn't sit still, trembling all over, and his face was pale.

"I'm fine, what about the gold and silver treasures I asked you to give to the Lantian County Lord? Have you sent them?"

the old man asked in a trembling voice.

"Hey, the man surnamed Li doesn't know how to flatter. I sent someone to send the gold and silver, but he was kicked out. I said brother-in-law, let's give him extra, don't drag him down."

Snapped!
The master went up and just slapped him. Looking at his brother-in-law who didn't live up to expectations, the brother-in-law was very wronged and said: "Brother-in-law, if you hit me, my sister wouldn't be willing to hit me."

"I hit you, I hit you lightly, our Wang family is finished!"

The old man sat down on the ground like dirt. Their royal family has worked hard for five generations, and they have exploited the current family business little by little. There are more than [-] shops in Mianchi, [-] acres of fertile land, and three manors. To those mud legs!
The old man is heartbroken, the foundation of the five generations has been destroyed in his hands, how do you let him face his ancestors, his heart hurts, but he has forgotten how he exploited the people , How bloody is the wealth accumulated by these five generations, and how he forced people to sell their sons and daughters back then.

The brother-in-law looked at his brother-in-law like this, covered his face and said, "Brother-in-law, why don't we take Xirou and run away."
