Chapter 13 Sweet Potato Flour

Li Mo smiled and said, "That's right, two pennies per catty, no credit, all in cash."

"However, if the quality is good, you can't take insects or small ones. We will have special people to check."

Village head Wang was suddenly so excited that he didn't know how to express his emotions. His mouth kept moving but he couldn't say a word. There were a lot of sweet potatoes in his village, but there was no market for them. Tired.

The other village chiefs were a little better, but their trembling hands betrayed their excitement.

The county magistrate is a good man. Since the county magistrate came, he has been exempted from exorbitant taxes, and now he is buying sweet potatoes. It is said that the fish in the pond in Yejia Village have been sold for several days. They are also jealous, but they are not so There are not so many fish in many ponds.

In fact, not every household sells sweet potatoes, and some families can’t even afford sweet potatoes. This is not a joke, this is reality.

But this gave everyone a hope. Plant if there is no sweet potato, open up wasteland if there is no land. The county magistrate has said that the tax exemption for three years, the magistrate is their savior and reborn parent.

The village chiefs couldn't sit still anymore and had to go back to the village immediately to tell the villagers the good news.

The master repeated the things to pay attention to before letting the village chiefs go. Everyone was so eager to return, they forgot to say hello.

Everything is two-way, some people support it and some people oppose it. The purchase of sweet potatoes makes the villagers happy, but what about the people in the county?Will this affect their interests?
But now is not the time to think about these issues, Li Mo has more important things to do.

In the afternoon, a master mason was invited to go through the wall. Of course, the master will make arrangements for these explanations.

Songjiang County is a little poor, but there are still no heinous people, so the prison cells are still empty.

It's not that there are no bad guys, but that everyone is from the same village, and murder and arson are unnecessary. There used to be, but they were sent to the provincial capital.There are quite a few petty thefts, and they are locked up for a few days as punishment after being caught.Therefore, there are very few arrests in the county government.

The more prestigious gentry in the county were brought together to the yamen.

The squires didn't know what had happened, and everyone talked about it.

It is said that crows are black all over the world, the county magistrate will not change his mind again and increase taxes again, right?The world is hard.

Li Mo transferred the management right of the bus line that he planned to plan, and everyone can compete, and the one with the highest price wins.

No one spoke, and the scene was very quiet, you could hear the needle drop on the ground.

Li Mo: "Do you not understand what I mean, or is no one willing to do it?"

A squire: "My lord, do you think it's not feasible?"

Li Mo: "Why?"

"If everyone goes to the provincial capital, who will come to the county to spend?"

Others agreed.

It turned out that they were worried about their own interests being damaged.

Boss Chen was the first person to get the crab. He understood Li Mo's thoughts, but at this time, like everyone else, he didn't support it. After all, the staff was outflowing and their interests were damaged.

The end result was that everyone boycotted it unanimously.

Song Min was so angry that he wanted to hit someone, but now the government servants are Li Mo's die-hard fans, no matter what Li Mo wants to do, they must fully cooperate.

Poverty is the most terrible thing, nothing is more terrible than poverty.

Li Mo: "Opening up to the outside world can attract a lot of external funds. Songjiang County has a large population, a weak foundation, a low level of productivity, and a severe shortage of funds.

The bus line is the first innovation. Later, we will introduce external funds, that is, attract investment, hoping to attract external funds to Songjiang County. If we want to develop the economy of Songjiang County, we must rely on everyone's efforts. . . . "

Li Mo said a lot, but everyone was indifferent. Well, you shouldn't give economics lessons to these antiques, and they don't understand.

Li Mo sighed: "Since everyone does not support it, and no one is willing to contract the bus line, that's okay, let the Yamen take the lead, and our Yamen will build this bus line by ourselves, but this road is for everyone to walk together. Shouldn’t the leaders of Songjiang County be concerned? You often have to deliver goods to other places or purchase goods from other places to Songjiang County, and you travel the most roads, don’t you?”

Everyone: So much has been said, the main event is coming later, and I want everyone to donate.

It’s impossible not to donate. They are county magistrates. It will be even worse if they just find an excuse to make things difficult for you. Those who have a backer at home can survive, but those who don’t have a backer may be beaten to death.

In the end, under the watchful eyes of the yamen servants, the gentry donated a total of 200 taels of silver.

Li Mo looked at such a small amount of money. Although he couldn't achieve his goal, it was better than nothing. These people are really stingy. Next time, I will think of a trick and spend more time.

Li Mo made a smirk again: "The last project is the transfer of our yamen's barbecue stall. Are you interested?"

Everyone thought that today was purely to spend money to eliminate disasters, but they didn't expect that there was an unexpected good thing.

Yamen’s barbecue stalls are really doing a good job. Moreover, since the barbecue stalls opened, everyone’s enthusiasm for setting up the night market has been stimulated. Now it has reached nearly 100 stalls, selling all kinds of things. There are still many people who don’t want to go home until early in the morning. .

Some people don't believe it: "My lord, your barbecue stall business is so good, why do you want to sell it?"

"Is this a trap?"

Li Mo said boldly: "Well, I think the responsibility of the yamen is to do a good job in the affairs of the yamen, not to engage in barbecues. Is this kind of amateur business? I think I still hope that you can take over. In this way, our yamen can I can serve you more attentively and professionally.”

What this sentence said was true. Everyone had a barbecue at night and was exhausted. They had no time to rest during the day, so they had to do government affairs again. Everyone was out of energy.

Therefore, Li Mo hoped that after the transfer of this barbecue stall, the work of various departments of the county government could be well mobilized, and the economy of Songjiang County could be well developed.

Barbecue stalls, but that's what these people have been coveting for a long time. They also want to engage in barbecue, but they are afraid of being discovered by the county magistrate. Besides, they don't have barbecue skills, so the business is definitely not good.

Li Mo: "Do you want to take over? I will transfer the barbecue technology to you, and the highest price will get it."

"My lord, I offer 500 taels."

"My lord, I offer 600 taels."

"I gave 650 taels."

. . . . .

The meeting hall is as lively as a vegetable market, and everyone is arguing.

In the end, 3000 taels were taken away by Boss Wang of the Wang family. Boss Wang runs the rice shop. These days, people who run the rice shop are all capable people, but Li Mo is not afraid. As long as you don’t make trouble, I won’t either. Go find your trouble.

Regarding the transfer of the barbecue stall, the Yamenmen are a little frustrated. They have been in business for nearly two months, and they already have feelings. They are a little tired, but they are very satisfied to see the money coming in day by day.

Li Mo enlightened everyone: "I know that everyone is reluctant to transfer it out, but we are public officials, and our duty is to better serve all the people in Songjiang County, instead of just seeing a little immediate benefit. Don't forget to enter the yamen What is your original intention? As long as everyone becomes rich, your pockets will also bulge."
