Be a small county magistrate in ancient times

Chapter 150 Go to various houses and ask questions

"A few sell food, such as sweet potato starch and soft tofu. I have tasted them and they all taste pretty good."

"Have you ever asked them, how is business? How much money do you make?"

Yang Zheng didn't ask, mainly because he didn't have the awareness, "I just wrote them a note and didn't care about the rest. I was careless. I will go to each house to ask this evening."

"Okay, I'll go with you then." Meng Changqing asked again: "How many notes do you have on hand to write out? Can each household pay it forward?"

"There are three notes in total. I remember which family did what business." Yang Zheng said, "Then I will give them the furs that Luo Sanmu's family wants first."

Meng Changqing nodded.

After Yang Zheng left, she picked up a pen and started writing documents.

The writing is almost complete, and I have to go to various places in the yamen to check it. What he said in the morning was obviously useful. Those who used to work under Zhang Yuan were much more active in doing things than before.

Meng Changqing knew that their positivity was only temporary, and would return to its original state over time, and he would have to constantly dangle benefits of different sizes in front of them.

The soldiers around her were divided into several waves. Some followed Zuo Datou to the wall to take care of the food. There were dedicated people keeping an eye on the two dangerous mountains. In addition, there were county government guards and people patrolling public facilities in the town.

Except for Zuo Datou, Meng Changqing personally inspected everything, paying special attention to the people in charge of various tasks, asking them to tell her in time if there was any abnormality or if they encountered difficult things at work.

As she turned around, the sky became darker.

Yang Zheng was already waiting for her at the Yamen Gate.

"Sir, I am going to Luojia Village now."

Meng Changqing nodded and said to Bafang who was standing in the Yamen: "Go to the back Yamen to get some things."

Bafang was stunned, "What?"

Meng Changqing said: "It doesn't have to be too expensive, but the gift should be edible or practical."

"Hey!" Yang Zheng understood what Meng Changqing meant, "Your Excellency gave them something, why didn't you take it from the treasury?"

"There are few people, and I still have enough things to give away." Meng Changqing said, "I'm afraid that if I take it from the treasury, I won't be able to control it in the future."

Yang Zheng did not dare to follow up on this. He said: "Although it is a courtesy for you to bring things to your door, you are an official and they are citizens, so they do not need this courtesy."

"It's not a matter of politeness." Meng Changqing explained, "It's to show my attitude. As long as they go to the city wall to do business in peace and quiet, the government will support them."

If the government supports it and it is beneficial to you, more and more people will do it.

Yang Zheng also has his worries, "But that place is different from other places. If there are too many people there, it will not only cause management problems, but it may also be dangerous."

"Indeed, when there are many people, management must be standardized. When you give notes here, you must also strictly check their backgrounds and ask questions from the three generations of ancestors."

"Yes."

Bafang came out carrying packages all over his body, "Master, Brother Dai brought this to me, can you take a look?" He said and was about to put down the things on his body.

"What are they?"

"The dry goods, brown sugar and snacks are the goods that Brother Dai brought back from the grocery store before."

"Okay, no need to open it." Meng Changqing brought some over himself, and Yang Zheng also helped to take them.

"Brother Yang, please lead the way."

Several people carried their things and arrived at a certain house in Luojia Village. Before they got close, they could hear movement in the yard, as if a family was busy.

Bafang knocked on the door, and Yang Zheng introduced it outside, "This family sells tofu with his own sauce. It tastes very good."

The courtyard door was opened, and the man inside looked very surprised when he saw the people standing outside, "Master County, gentlemen, what can I do?"
