Early Tang Dynasty: forge ahead

Chapter 54 How can there be no sound of reading?

Chapter 54 How can there be no sound of reading?
Under the inducement of official positions, the upright and upright attitude of the people is very positive and efficient.

Chen Qingsi didn't care what method they used, whether it was coercion, inducement, or bullying, as long as they brought the person to the county safely.

Only by gathering popularity can there be room and possibility for development, and various hazards caused by the lack of labor after the war can be avoided as much as possible.

People near the county seat have already arrived one after another.

Chen Qingsi and Jiang Chen personally welcomed the resettlement, first gathering people at the village temple that had been cleaned up, and then distributing vacant residential houses in the city according to individual circumstances.

The whole process went smoothly.

After all, compared to living in a dilapidated cottage, the county's environmental prospects are far superior.There is just some concern about the distribution of fields and houses.

With the acquisition of vacant houses in the county, all worries naturally turned into joy, and I accepted my transformation from a villager to a county person.

Chen Qingsi did not break his promise, and based on the performance of each village, he decentralized the appointment power at each level of the government office one by one.

All these actions were carefully considered by him.

The situation in Qingxi County is very bad. The method Muramasa Zhuang Minrui said is actually the practice of this era. The court opened the tax exemption policy and then let it go.Relying on human tenacity and natural selection, we can overcome difficulties and thrive.Within ten to twenty years, Qingxi County was restored to its original state.

This is the simplest, most effective and most common method.

Chen Qingsi cannot be so indifferent. The future society may not be so perfect, but in the face of this kind of disaster, Chinese people who have received the education of New China Thought will never be so indifferent.

Regardless of success or failure, he intends to do his best to minimize losses.

He doesn't have time to cultivate, discover and cultivate talents who believe in him, so Rimasa and Muramasa are the best choices.

First of all, their ability to become Satomasa and Muramasa is a kind of ability. Being able to complete tasks as quickly and best as possible is also a sign of strength.

The first person to complete the task was actually Muramasa Toshirui, who was the last to leave. Although the Peach Village under his jurisdiction was close to him, it was also because of his high moral character and respect.

Chen Qingsi wanted to directly appoint Zhuang Minrui as the chief bookkeeper.

Zhuang Minrui refused, and resigned as the leader of the village. He bowed and said: "I am sixty-three today. I will leave the opportunity to others. That means I can't worry about the people in the village. They should have taken care of themselves at this age. Now that we have the county magistrate, The old man can rest assured. But the old man has a grandson who is very talented and well-read, but he has never experienced the world and I don’t know whether he can study with the county magistrate."

Want to escape?dream!

Chen Qingsi thought to himself and said: "I happen to be short of people around me. As long as my grandson can endure hardship, it's okay."

Zhuang Minrui said cheerfully: "County magistrate, don't worry, my grandson's character is worthy of trust."

He smiled like a child. Yesterday's plan was enough to show the talent of the county magistrate in front of him. His words "go all out and have a clear conscience" also showed his character. His precious grandson could learn a lot from following him.

Chen Qingsi saw Zhuang Minrui about to leave and waved to stop him: "I heard that Mr. Zhuang was a teacher in the past?"

Zhuang Minrui said: "You are old and incapable of talent, and you are misleading your disciples."

Chen Qingsi heard that he was speaking of self-effacement, but his tone was filled with a hint of pride. She must have been very satisfied with her career as a teacher.

"Has Mr. Zhuang ever thought about returning to his old business?" Zhuang Minrui was startled and said, "The county magistrate is talking about opening a school?"

"Not bad!" Chen Qingsi said: "I plan to open a county school near the government office to teach children how to read and learn calligraphy, and teach them how to behave in the world."

Zhuang Minrui shook his head and said: "How can the people in the county have enough money for their children to study? Even if they don't charge, they may not be willing to let them come to study. Besides, where is the school? How to deal with books?"

Chen Qingsi immediately said: "Junior, I have thought of everything. The school is next to the government office. It used to be the private school of the Lu family. It was renovated and turned into the county school. Books, I brought some with me when I went south, and I can also edit them now. . It doesn’t need to be too profound, it’s just enlightenment. People in the county don’t need tuition fees to go to school, and the school can also provide lunch for the students. The food may not be that good, but it can be enough. These expenses are paid by the county. Just these days, I got some ransom money and can use it. It’s just paper and pens for my husband to teach and students to write on, so there’s no extra budget.”

"But the juniors think it doesn't matter. These are not major problems and can be overcome. If you don't have paper and pen, you can use charcoal and wooden boards. It's an emergency and there is no need to pay so much attention."

Zhuang Mingrui hesitated for a moment and said, "The current situation in the county is it really necessary to spend the meager money and materials on opening a school?"

"It's necessary!" Chen Qingsi looked at Zhuang Minrui and said word by word: "No matter how hard it is, the children can't be hurt. How can a county with no sound of reading be able to do so?"

He took two steps forward, bowed and said: "The county school is short of an old gentleman to take charge, and I would like to ask this old man to be the county school teacher..."

Zhuang Minrui's eyes were determined, he straightened his back, which was stooped due to age, and bowed with a trembling voice: "I am willing to listen to County Magistrate Chen's arrangements."

Within half an hour, Zhuang Minrui's grandson Shi Wuzi came to report.

Shi Wuzi, what's the font?
Listening to Shi Wuzi's self-introduction, Chen Qingsi couldn't help but smile. This name was really strange. He had no memory of Shi Wuzi, and he didn't look down on him. He stayed by his side and listened to him.

Zhuang Minrui declined the position of chief clerk, and Chen Qingsi transferred it to Li Zhengleixin in Zhangmuli, the rough middle-aged man who was also the first to flatter him.

Other positions are assigned corresponding tasks one by one based on performance.

Qin Yi, the official, Ma Bo, the inspector, Zhang Qing, the inspector, Lu Yuanyi, the Yi Cheng, Peng Xing, the scholar, Ren'an, the law officer, Pang Li, the tax officer, and Funing, the punishment officer.

So far, the administrative team of Qingxi County has been formally established.

However, due to the special situation of Qingxi County, it does not have a sufficient population and lacks reasonable planning, so it has not truly formed a complete system.

For example, the Postmaster Lu Yuanyi and the Posthouse in Qingxi County have long been paralyzed, without a single horse.

Tax Cao Pangli, every copper in the county, Chen Qingsi was trying to break it in half and use it, but it was not enough for the other party.

The same is true for the teachings, and the only county school is still under preparation.

Therefore, in order to avoid wastage of personnel, Chen Qingsi had all the say. All lower-level officials obeyed his arrangements and did whatever they were asked to do regardless of official position.

Zhang Qing, who was in charge of inspections, was responsible for arranging people to move in, while Ren An, who was in charge of Facao, was sorting out grain crops.

This extremely chaotic administrative management system would definitely not work in a large county or even a state capital, but Qingxi County is a dilapidated county, and Chen Qingsi has enough leadership and deployment capabilities to arrange everything properly and make everything smooth. Big and small, on the contrary, they are well organized, dragging the broken Qingxi County forward.
