Be a small county magistrate in ancient times
Chapter 374 What to do
Chapter 374: What to do
In addition, Meng Changqing also explained the number of existing arable land in the county and how much more per mu of land this autumn harvest is than last year.
Agriculture, housing and road construction, education, all the achievements were pointed out one by one.
The Qi people stood up and congratulated him, "Congratulations, sir! Beishan County is what it is today, all thanks to sir Meng!"
"I also rely on the support of everyone here. Otherwise, no matter how many ideas I have, I am only one person with only one pair of hands. How can I save time and effort like I do now?" Meng Changqing asked him to sit down and continued, "In just two years, we have achieved some results.
I sincerely thank you all for everything you have done for Beishan County. "Having said this, Meng Changqing stood up and clasped his hands to the people present, "Thank you all!"
No one dared to accept her gift and returned the gift.
“I often remind myself what Beishan County looked like two years ago, and what I saw when I led some of you to open the door to Yangmen County.
Do you remember? "
"How could I forget that?" Zhou Xing slapped the table and said, "It was the coldest time of the twelfth lunar month. I remember that when the city gate opened, the cold wind went straight into people's bodies. The wind seemed to be blowing from the underworld."
"Yes, at that time, the adults wanted to find a place to take shelter, but they were driven away by Weishan County. Alas, I will always remember this grudge!"
"Ahem!" Yang Zheng coughed a few times and winked at the person who spoke. As far as he knew, Lord Meng and Lord Cao of Weishan County had a good relationship now. There was really no need to bring up the past and sow discord between the superiors.
Seeing that the other party understood his look, Yang Zheng turned to Meng Changqing and said, "Sir, building the wall in the wilderness was arduous and dangerous. How can we who witnessed it forget it? Even when we are old in the future, we must tell these things to our grandchildren."
"Talking about the past reminds me of our life-long friendship," Meng Changqing said. "In just two years, Beishan County has become what it is today. You might as well imagine what Beishan County will look like in ten years."
"In ten years, it will definitely surpass Yangmen County!" someone said excitedly.
"Not only that! With adults here, it might be better than Liangzhou City!"
"Yeah!"
"Ten years, five or two years, our Beishan County must be the only one in Liangzhou, no, the only one in the four northern states!"
Meng Changqing heard that they were all thinking positively and was very grateful that they thought highly of her.
However, Beishan County is a small border town after all. Whether it can develop well depends not only on their own efforts, but also on whether the Yan army gives them opportunities.
Although he talked about the future, Meng Changqing himself did not dare to have any distant plans.
The situation in the court is ever-changing, and her own future is shrouded in mystery.
The enemy's intentions are unpredictable, the challenges that Beishan County will face are unimaginable, and the future cannot be seen clearly. I can only hope that God will have mercy on us and give us good luck, so that Beishan County can avoid setbacks and have a good future.
Meng Changqing smiled and said, “I hope the future will be just as you are saying now.
However, ten years is too long, so let’s shorten the time and talk about what we want to achieve within five years.”
What should he do? Yang was pondering Meng Changqing's choice of words in his mind. After thinking for a while, he was about to speak, but Qi Renli on the opposite side spoke first.
"Sir, within five years, I will earn enough money for the county government to save, and find a legitimate way for the people in the county to make money."
Meng Changqing looked at him and nodded, "Master Qi has a good heart, and with your ability, you can make your promise come true.
What do others have to say? "Yang Zheng said: "The population is over 50,000."
Cheng Guang then said, "There are more than 150,000 mu of cultivated land."
"The official road leads directly to the gate of Yangmen County."
"Haha! You said it would take another five years? Next year we can build it to the gate of Yangmen County."
Everyone said something different, and by the end it was like making a wish.
After listening to this, Meng Changqing added: "We need to revitalize the existing facilities, have students pass the provincial examination, and make all preparations to lay the foundation for the court to take back Tuzhou."
When she said the last sentence, everyone present was shocked.
Meng Changqing continued: "Most of those present are soldiers from the Weishan Camp. You know the situation on the border and the Yan army better than anyone else.
This battle is inevitable. The Yan army can't take care of us now, but judging from their actions last year, will they let us go when they have enough energy?"
Zuo Datou shook his head, "That's impossible. The Yan thieves are determined to destroy us, and we will never have peace."
"In the next five years, or even the next ten years, whether we are stockpiling food or developing the economy, it is not only for our own careers and the people of Liangzhou, but also for the battle in the future." Meng Changqing's eyes were firm. "We must make sure that the Yan army will not return. We must beat them so hard that they dare not attack for the next fifty years. Only in this way can our Beishan County be peaceful and our Daliang have a chance to turn things around."
After hearing what Meng Changqing said, Yang Zheng didn't dare to respond. The gap between Daliang and Yan State was too big. Unless the whole country was mobilized to fight this war, it would not be possible.
Not only was there a difference in investment in military pay and food, but the soldiers were also physically inferior to those of Yan. Even the horses of Daliang were not as good as those of Yan.
If Yan State had not experienced two upheavals itself, it would be hard to say whether Daliang would exist in this world.
Yang Zheng really didn't dare to think about the future that Meng Changqing talked about.
But looking at Meng Changqing's expression and thinking about what he had done in the past, is it really impossible? Yang Zheng couldn't help asking himself.
If God blesses Daliang, Lord Meng will get what he wants.
The first snow of this year lasted for several days, from the end of September to the beginning of October.
Apart from the patrolling yamen runners, there were very few people walking around.
The food stored in the autumn, plus the firewood stored before winter, are enough for the people to stay at home and have a good winter.
Mei Zi had nothing to do at home, so she took out the money she had saved and counted it when Zeng Dashu was not around.
The money Zeng Dashu earned was also in her purse. The total money of the two of them was nearly forty taels. If they had not bought these things at home, their money would be enough to buy a house on Xing'an Street.
However, Mei Zi has never thought of buying a house. The place she lives in now is very good. It is not far from the county town. All the household items are available at home, and she is getting more and more familiar with her neighbors. In addition, when the child is born in the future, there will inevitably be big expenses. It is better to keep this money for future use.
There are many people like Mei Zi in Beishan County who count money for fun when they have nothing to do.
After all, when we have nothing to do, we always have to find something to pass the time. We can't just beat the children for fun. Now that the children are in school, if they are beaten for no reason, they will complain to their husband.
