Chapter 302
These hundreds of people are the reorganized garrison soldiers who have already arrived in Huang County, and a small number of reorganized garrison soldiers who are already in Huang County.

Huang County was occupied early and the people accepted it well, so they had time and effort to clean up and transform their future camps.

The renovation of the new government compound has come to an end, the gate has become very wide, and a reception desk has been set up, and all the rooms inside have been transformed into office rooms for various departments, including the backyard of the county government.

Gu Yi and his family have moved out and live in a new small courtyard outside.

In addition to the renovation of the county government compound, several yards next to the compound are also being renovated. These yards will be used as dormitories for Huang County officials. Before they buy their own houses, they can live in the dormitories.

Singles will share a room with two or three people, while those with families will be arranged separately.

Although accommodation is included, the conditions are definitely not as good as your own home, and a certain amount of accommodation fees will be charged, otherwise no one will buy a house by themselves.However, the accommodation fee is very low, and there are financial subsidies included, so it will not be a burden to officials.

Time was tight, so Liu Xinqi did not stay longer in Huang County. After a night's rest, he took everyone to Ye County.

...

We set out at dawn on the [-]th. There was light snow falling in the sky, but it had little effect on everyone's speed. After walking for a while, we stopped to rest our horses and arrived in Ye County before dark.

After resting in Yexian at night, Liu Xinqi stayed in Yexian for a day the next day.

The county magistrate of Ye County was promoted by the former deputy director of a department of Xinghan League. He did not know much about Ye County. Even if some former Ye County officials cooperated, the current progress of various tasks was much slower than that of Huang County. He only controlled The spread of the new law in the county and outside the city has just begun.

Liu Xinqi followed a work team to a village and found that the people there were unfamiliar with the Xinghan League and did not have enough trust in the staff who came to popularize the law. They just listened under the stage under the organization of the village chief, and the response was not very good.

The county magistrate of Ye County who followed Liu Xinqi during the inspection was very ashamed. Liu Xinqi comforted him: "Take your time, they may think that we are similar to 'roving bandits' and cannot govern this place for a long time. It will be better as time goes by. You still have plenty of time." , as long as the county-wide reforms are completed before the summer grain collection."

"Thank you, Alliance Leader, for your support. But when will the new manpower be available?" asked the county magistrate of Ye County.

"After returning from this inspection, I will start organizing a new round of recruitment examinations for staff. In two months at most, I will be able to recruit enough 500 people for you."

"Then the subordinates can rest assured."

"Are you having any difficulties here?" Liu Xinqi also asked.

"The biggest difficulty in Ye County is the mine owners. They are too powerful. Without the support of the army, I dare not touch them for the time being, for fear of forcing them to rebel." The magistrate of Ye County replied.

"You are right. Once all the garrison troops on your side are in place, the county town should be stable. Once Cui Wu's first field regiment in Haicang Town has been reorganized, you can go about your business. I will follow you I will go to Haicang Town and notify Cui Wu to cooperate with your subsequent reform work." Liu Xinqi said.

"Okay, then I will adjust the direction of my work and focus on agricultural villages for the time being, promote the new law, and leave those mine owners at the end."

After returning to the city at noon, I also checked the renovation of the garrison barracks and the renovation of the new government compound. Both renovations were slower than those in Huang County.

"The yard next to it is not willing to be sold, so the official dormitories are set up farther away." Liu Xinqi saw that there was no movement in a large yard next to the new government compound, and the county magistrate of Ye County explained.

"Whose yard is this?" Liu Xinqi asked.

"I heard that it belongs to a high-ranking official in Puppet Qi. There is a mine here in Ye County. The former magistrate of Ye County flattered me and got the yard and gave it to him. There were only a few servants and housekeepers guarding the yard. But the house deeds in the housekeeper's hands are all in compliance with regulations, and according to regulations, we cannot forcefully expropriate them."

"Well, there is no forced conscription. When the house deed is changed later, you must change it yourself. It depends on whether the official will come by himself or let his nephew come over. He won't be able to hide for long." Liu Xinqi said.

After the reform, all the property deeds of Pseudo-Qi will be replaced by those of Xinghan League.

The land of the Xinghan League is owned by the League, so the house on the ground belongs to me, and the land is rented to the owner of the house free of charge for a period of 99 years. This is different from the Puppet Qi, where the land and house deeds belong to myself.

"Your progress is a bit slow. If you don't have enough manpower, you can spend more money. As long as you have money to make and there are people to help you work, let go. The money is money when you spend it, but it is just a stone in your hand."

Food stamps have not yet been implemented in the seven newly occupied counties because the food of the Xinghan League is not enough to supply the people in these seven counties, so the currency is still silver and copper coins.

However, the Xinghan League could cast copper coins by itself, and there were cheap copper materials from Japan. The cost of copper coins was less than half that of Zhao.

Therefore, the Xinghan League still had plenty of coins.

"I understand, I will take care of more manpower soon." The county magistrate replied.

"You must make full and reasonable use of the 100 people who come with you. Let these 100 people do management work as much as possible. Detailed work and some chores will be done by hired people. Special treatment will be given in special times. If you hire With 1000 people, the progress of all work will be greatly accelerated." Liu Xinqi explained: "Moreover, if you spend a lot of money here, it will also increase the trust of the people. In villages and towns, there will be hired locals to help spread the law. The progress will definitely be accelerated.”

"I was too 'searchy'." The county magistrate of Ye County gradually understood the problems in his work.

"Don't be afraid of spending money. Once the money is spent, if our Xinghan League's products enter Ye County, we will quickly earn back the money. Only when money is flowing can it be valuable and generate taxes."

...

The county magistrate has never held such a high position before. He lacks the overall situation and courage.Xinghan League is currently short of all kinds of manpower. To choose this person to be the county magistrate is to choose a tall one among the short ones. Liu Xinqi can only teach patiently.

The second half of the day was basically filled with Liu Xin's teachings and the records of the county magistrate of Ye County. I don't know to what extent he will implement them later.

After Liu Xinqi returns to Penglai, he plans to ask the Government Affairs Council to organize an inspection team to inspect various counties and districts. On the one hand, he can look for work errors, corruption and perversion of the law in these counties.On the other hand, it can also guide the new county magistrate to better govern under the laws of the Xinghan League, adapt to the new policies faster, and improve management faster.

【If talents are not matched, there will be disaster.Fortunately, this person has enough virtue. Let's grow up slowly. There will be an inspection team coming to help later, so there won't be any big trouble. 】

Liu Xinqi thought to himself.
