After being exiled, I led my whole family to rebel.

Chapter 235 Vaccine is available
Hu Wei immediately replied: "There are twenty-two state capitals, about two hundred county towns, and more than a thousand villages."

"Okay, let's assume that there are 100 people in the state capital, and the average monthly salary per person is ten taels of silver. There are three hundred county towns, each with fifty officials, and the monthly salary is five taels. The village has two thousand, and there are five officials. , twenty taels per month. How much is it?"

Someone immediately took a pencil and counted on the book.

However, what surprised Zhou Houfang was that Xu Zhenying was the first to calculate. She didn't even take a pen and blurted out: "About 100,000 per month, less than one million taels a year. Even counting the national level The number of officials is only two million taels at most. This expenditure is considered insignificant in terms of finance."

Xu Anping sighed: "City Lord, your arithmetic ability is really beyond our reach."

Xu Zhenying smiled.

Nonsense, how many years of mental arithmetic classes was held by Xu's mother? The muscle memory of those years is still there.

Hu Wei nodded frequently, "Calculated this way, it is indeed a negligible expense. But the premise is that corruption must be eradicated. If corruption becomes common like the Zhou Dynasty, at least tens of millions of taels of silver will not be able to stop it."

"This is natural. When implementing any policy, the starting point of those at the top is good, but it will change at the lower levels. So, it depends on the capabilities of the top management department and the supervision department. This ship How to open it and where to open it, to put it bluntly, ultimately depends on the top management.”

Everyone agreed with this.

Xu Zhenying saw that his administrative structure was almost finished, so he smiled and said: "Now we only occupy the land of two states. Many things do not need to be so complicated. There may not be enough people in the early stage, but the departments must have a clear division of labor. And currently We haven't proclaimed ourselves king or emperor to the outside world yet. Let's not rush to decide on the national level. We will tentatively decide on the state and county levels. However, the department leaders in Jinzhou Prefecture will also have to manage the affairs in Qianzhou for the time being. .”

She clapped her hands, looked around, and said with a smile: "The positions have been laid out, please take the initiative to take the seats."

These words made everyone stunned.

So today I have to mention everyone’s positions?

I have only seen those directly assigned by the emperor, but I have never seen one who claimed it himself.

Zhou Houfang was stunned. Can such a big matter be decided by her own will?

Who would have thought that people would actually stand up one after another.

Xu Anping is Xu Zhenying's sister, so she was naturally not afraid and took the lead to speak: "In that case, I won't be pretentious. I am unworthy of the position of Minister of Education."

Xu Zhenying smiled: "Well, it suits you very well. It just so happens that you are used to doing these things in the early stage. Ningmo, you are the deputy minister. The two of you will work together to get things done with the Ministry of Education. The issue of universal education in Jinzhou Prefecture is imminent. This area of ​​work is the top priority, and we must make a good start.”

Fang Ningmo looked happy and responded repeatedly.

Xu Degui also stood up and said: "Then let me be the Minister of Finance. Anyway, from the beginning of your exile, I will be in charge of your money."

Xu Zhenying smiled and said nothing.

Several other people are thinking that this is the first serious career after the establishment of the administrative structure. Regarding future promotion, it depends not only on whether they can do it, but also on whether they can do it well.

Ming Xiaoshuang looked left and right, "Anyway, I am in charge of the farmers now, why not just take over the Ministry of Agriculture directly."

Liu Dazhuang also expressed his position. Now that he is in charge of the two major military camps in Jinzhou Prefecture, it is natural for him to claim a Minister of Military Affairs. "Then I will claim the Ministry of Military Affairs."

Xu Zhenying said "hmm" and then glanced at the blackboard, "There are currently no people left in the Ministry of Civil Affairs, Ministry of Commerce, Ministry of Natural Resources Management, and Ministry of Medical Care."

Hu Wei immediately said: "City Lord, in our special period, do we need to have a propaganda department? In this way, after we capture a city, the people from the propaganda department can first promote our concept of equality for everyone, first of all from the ideological point of view Disintegrate the opponent and defeat them without fighting——"

"Oh, that's right!" Xu Zhenying nodded, "I forgot about this. It just so happens that each village now has a propagandist to promote our ideas and policies. Special departments and propaganda departments are necessary in special times. Let me see, the medical department will temporarily appoint Qiu Juniang, right?"

Qian Zhenniang reminded: "City Lord, I'm afraid Dean Qiu is too busy. She wrote a few days ago saying that the cowpox experiment has reached a very critical period. Many of her teaching jobs have been stopped, and now she is devoted to cowpox. Let’s do some research.”

"Okay, let's leave it to her first. The position of the medical department must be reserved for people in the medical industry, otherwise it will be difficult for us to manage it if we are separated by mountains. It just so happens that we are not in a hurry to advance this matter. We will wait for the doctors to add the number one after another. It’s not too late to come back after the increase is made. Ministry of Civil Affairs——”

Xu Zhenying looked at Zhao Zhenlan who was eager to try but remained silent, "Fourth Aunt, how about you hold on for a while?"

However, Zhao Zhenlan glanced at Xu Anping and then at Xu Zhenying. Xu Zhenying said: "If you have any concerns, fourth aunt, you may as well tell her directly."

Zhao Zhenlan said: "City Lord, three of us in the fourth house have positions, I'm afraid it's inappropriate? Besides, the second sister-in-law and the third sister-in-law are here. They are more familiar with the logistics than me, and they can do better than me." Dejiu, it stands to reason that they are more suitable for this position.”

"This is nothing. There is also a Natural Resources Management Department. Second Aunt can set up this department first."

Xu Zhenying said this, and others naturally had no objections.

Lian subconsciously thought that the Ministry of Natural Resources Management sounded very powerful. It would definitely involve a lot of approvals and gold and silver in the future, but now it seemed like it was just an empty shell.

Could it be that Xu Yinxi was already the prince of Qianzhou, so he deliberately ignored her to avoid suspicion?
"As for the Supervision Department?" While Xu Zhenying was hesitating, Hu Wei stood up and said, "City Lord, I am not very talented, but I am willing to share the worries of the City Lord."

It was obvious that the members of the Xu family team were not at ease with Hu Wei. His suggestion immediately attracted the attention of others.

However, Xu Zhenying did not hesitate and said with a smile: "Okay."

Zhou Houfang secretly thought that since this supervisory department was so powerful, it had to find someone who did not have such a good relationship with the Xu family team.

Hu Wei joined in midway, and he was not on good terms with the rest of the Xu family. He had no worries and was cruel enough, so he thought he was suitable for this job.

It's just that the Xu family is unwilling, naturally they don't want everything to be strictly monitored by outsiders. If Hu Wei gets caught, Xu Zhenying's temperament may mean shedding her skin even if she doesn't die.

Xu Zhenying must not be able to supervise his own family too much, so Hu Wei needs to step forward.

"There is still one propaganda department left..." Xu Zhenying glanced at it, and then looked at Qian Zhenniang with a smile. Qian Zhenniang could only accept the move, "Okay, it doesn't matter what I do, anyway, the city lord will not treat us veterans badly."

"Okay." Xu Zhenying knocked on the table, "Please bring Houfang with you before you leave. I'm afraid she won't be able to do it alone. Please see if there are any good seedlings on the list this time and send one or two over. You have to work hard." steady and sure."

Qian Zhenniang agreed.

Zhou Houfang took a look at the time and saw that such a big meeting could decide such an important matter in just one hour.

She had to admire the efficient operation of the Xu family team.

If this matter had been brought to the attention of the Zhou Dynasty, there would have been a quarrel for at least a year and a half.

At the end of a meeting, everyone was happy, except Zhou Houfang and Qian Zhenniang who looked sad.

For such a large meeting, they had to formulate a document within one day and publicize it widely, even sending it to every county in Qianzhou.

Zhou Houfang had only been in office for three days, but she already felt that her hair was falling out in large quantities. She really didn't know how Qian Zhenniang could do so with such ease.

Seeing the bitter look on her face, Qian Zhenniang actually laughed out loud: "What are you afraid of? I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. Let's go eat first and eat until we're full. Then I'll work overtime with you tonight. Stay up all night and let's sort out this document."

Stay up late... This is the first time she stayed up all night.

Mother was afraid and didn't know how anxious she would be.

But Zhou Houfang can no longer care so much.

Qian Zhenniang had her own propaganda department to prepare, and she was about to take office. Before she left, he squeezed out such precious time to help her complete such a big job. She could only burst into tears, and she didn't dare to be picky. .

She quickly pulled Qian Zhenniang's sleeve: "Secretary Qian, thank you so much. I really don't know what I would do without you."

Qian Zhenniang smiled and patted her on the shoulder: "Don't be afraid, we all got through this. Eat more at night, we have a tough battle to fight. Oh, by the way, I will also replenish the manpower with you as soon as possible. Don't worry , just for these few days, you just have to endure it a little longer——"

Zhou Houfang can only do this.

This time she finally understood why Xu Zhenying was so eager to promote education for all.

Talented people, please show her some more quickly, otherwise she won’t be able to work for a few days and her hair will turn completely white——

In a remote mountain village in Lan County, a dozen doctors in white coats were staring nervously at the door of the small black room.

Old Doctor Qiu was the most nervous.

Just because the cowpox experiment has reached its final stage.

The city lord traveled thousands of miles to find the smallpox virus, and also took a few death row prisoners from prison to test the medicine. Those few people had a fever for a few days and were fine.

So Qiu Juniang strongly advocated expanding the sample size.

There were not enough prisoners on death row, so she took them herself, along with a few courageous female students.

Old Doctor Qiu has not returned to Jinzhou Prefecture since his last medical examination. Instead, he stayed with Qiu Juniang, teaching and following up on the cowpox experiment.

There are already more than a dozen doctors who have joined their cowpox team.

Everyone knows that the cowpox experiment is already halfway through, and it is almost close to the answer. Therefore, the doctors in this experimental group are working on the research as if they were given chicken blood.

In order to effectively isolate the spread of the smallpox virus, the medical school moved the research site to a remote mountain forest. Magistrate Fang also knew that the matter was serious and specially assigned dozens of soldiers to guard the temporary wooden hut.

And Qiu Juniang took the lead and fought for her life.

Old Doctor Qiu felt sorry for his daughter.

Although her daughter is now the vice president of the medical school, according to the so-called division of power and responsibility in Jinzhou Prefecture, she enjoys the same treatment as the county magistrate. Magistrate Fang also treats his daughter with extra courtesy when he sees her.

In addition, Qiu Juniang is researching around the clock and risking her life to get vaccinated. Now everyone in the medical school respects her.

But Dr. Qiu knew that behind this respect, Qiu Juniang had earned it with countless sweat.

Now it has been four days since Ju Niang and those students went in.

During this period, all people were blocked from entering and exiting. They could only judge from Qiu Juniang's voice that she was in good condition.

And today is the most critical day.

It can be said that whether there will be a plague like smallpox in the future of the Zhou Dynasty depends entirely on today.

Finally, the door was slowly pushed open.

Qiu Juniang seemed to have lost a lot of weight and looked thinner, but she was still in good spirits. She stood by the door, followed by the students, and the sun fell on her face.

Her voice was a little trembling, but she could not suppress her joy, "Father, we can now write to the city lord to tell the city lord that the cowpox vaccine has been developed——"

------------------

Within a few days, Xu Yinxi received the latest administrative structure description and Xu Zhenying's personal letter.

Xu Zhenying didn't say anything in the letter. He just explained a few things about Qianzhou and mentioned Bai Cien's matter by the way.

Regarding Bai Cien, Xu Zhenying's thoughts were different from Xu Yinxi's.

Xu Yinxi felt that Bai Cien was a hot potato and should be thrown out as soon as possible.

However, Xu Zhenying's letter clearly stated that we must unite all forces that can be united, even enemies.

So Xu Yinxi summoned his subordinates and asked about Bai Cien's current situation.

His subordinates responded and said that the Bai family had collected enough money and handed it over to the chieftains, and the chieftains had kept their promise and released him.

But Bai Cien has been staying in Jinzhou Mansion.

"Did you find out what he's been doing recently?"

"No, I just run to the streets all day long, just walking around and looking around, wandering around, not knowing what I want to do."

Xu Yinxi curled her lips slightly.

Zhang Wanjun said: "Perhaps the set of questions that Director Ming asked him to do last time made him a little crazy."

"Questions?"

Only then did Xu Yinxi realize that this was the origin of Bai Ci'en and Xu Zhenying.

She couldn't help but laugh: "The proud son of the Great Zhou Dynasty became a weed on the roadside when he arrived in our place. He probably couldn't pass the test in his heart. Does he want to know where he lost?"

"It should be that a person who was born in the clouds suddenly fell into the quagmire one day. Thinking about it, I'm afraid I feel uncomfortable." Zhang Wanjun said truthfully, "But from the perspective of the city lord, it seems that it would be best to win over him."

Xu Yinxi frowned, "That's why I'm puzzled. The Bai family was an important official in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Several generations were born and died for the Great Zhou Dynasty. The prosperity and wealth of the Bai family are all tied to the Great Zhou Dynasty. So no matter how much energy we spend, , Bai Cien should not easily take refuge in a small group of border bandits like us."

Zhang Wanjun smiled, "It doesn't have to be that he surrenders to us, as long as he doesn't firmly oppose us."

"What if he returns to the court to complain and the court pays attention to us?"
