Tuan Chong is five and a half years old and started his fortune from farming.

Noon——

long street.

Zhou Baotou was walking in front of the window of the sedan chair, breathing heavily, and suggested:

"Sir, it's noon. Let's find a place to have lunch."

"Well, just find a restaurant where you can rest."

Tao Zhixian pinched his eyebrows. He didn't have much money on him, but it was okay to treat the bearers and the catcher to a simple meal.

"I humble my position and take orders."

Zhou Captou nodded and led the bearers towards the small restaurant on the street.

People are like iron, and food is like steel. If you don't eat one meal, you won't be hungry.

In his opinion, the county magistrate is already very good, a good official who works hard and loves the people!

Those squires and wealthy families who usually fawn over, but now at the critical moment, they are crying for poverty for various reasons and sending the county magistrate away!

Outrageous!

Just wait, wait until this happens, and see if he doesn't think of ways to repay these people!

After a brief lunch, Tao Zhixian took the people and visited a few country gentry.

Fortunately, Huangtian paid off his hard work, and two families were willing to donate 300 taels or 200 taels of silver, so he finally didn't come back empty-handed.

Tao Zhixian kept these two companies in mind, and in the next three years, the tax on the shops and properties under these two names was reduced by half.

The owners of the two families felt that this donation of money was a good deal in order to gain the favor owed by Tao Zhixian.

Tao Zhixian had been busy for a day, and the bearers and Zhou Baotou had been working together for a tiring day.

After returning to the Yamen, Tao Zhixian asked them all to go back and have a good rest, and they could order dinner later tomorrow.

Captain Zhou took the order and fell asleep after returning home.

Tao Zhixian ordered people to move the money raised into the warehouse.

I personally checked the doors, windows and interior of the warehouse. After confirming that everything was correct, I locked the doors and windows and returned to the room in the backyard.

tired.

But it is the right thing for an official to work for the people.

With these five hundred taels of silver, the county government can survive for about a month.

Hope, hope that within a month, the court’s disaster relief funds will be able to

Perhaps he was too tired. Tao Zhixian didn't eat a few mouthfuls of food at night, so he ordered people to remove the bowls and chopsticks, then ordered water, and after briefly washing up, he lay down on the bed and fell asleep.

The cook sighed when she saw the untouched food.

The county magistrate has been doing all kinds of things since the refugees came to the county.

The weather is hot right now and I have no appetite. It’s really hard!

But she wouldn't just throw away the remaining food.

After cleaning up, she carried the food box and sent the leftovers to the ruined temple for some little beggars to eat.

Ever since the magistrate came to Taohua County, there have been very few beggars on the long streets of the county.

At first, some people thought that the new magistrate was ruthless and drove away the beggars.

In fact, the county magistrate was so merciful that instead of chasing away the beggars, he placed the beggars in unused temples in the county.

The ruined temple is very large, and after renovation, many rooms have been separated. The beggars live in two or three rooms. The older ones are arranged to work by the adults to barely have enough food and clothing. There is no need to look at people's faces before begging.

Those who are still young and unable to work rely on the yamen's financial aid to survive.

After all, there is a place to take shelter from the wind and rain, right?

As soon as the cook came, the little beggars gathered around.

Compared to being completely dirty at the beginning, now their faces and hands have been washed clean with water.

"Grandma Liu, I'm hungry~"

"Hey, hurry up and eat the steamed buns. There are also vegetables. Eat them quickly."

"Grandma Liu, are you okay, the magistrate? I heard that you have been very busy recently and have not come to see us." "Sir, you are okay. When you are not busy, you will definitely come to see you."

Haishi——

Inn.

The candlelight was dim, and the watchman passed by beating gongs and drums.

Fu Bao and Song Yu were ready. Jiang Changfa held the hemp rope and carefully pushed open the window.

After making sure that no one was around and there was no danger, he quickly lowered the hemp rope. After touching the bottom, his eyes signaled to his daughter that it was done.

Song Yu had some skills and took the lead in grabbing the rope and quickly slipped down.

Finally, there was Fu Bao. Fu Bao tiptoed and was about to go down when her father took her arm and warned:

"Dad, I know you are protected by the old gods, but you must also pay attention to safety and be careful."

"Yeah, I understand, Dad."

Fu Bao understood his father's worry, and with his father's help, he grabbed one end of the rope and slid down smoothly.

She didn't make any noise during the whole process, everything went smoothly.

Song Yu caught the little fiancée below. Then he shook the rope and signaled his uncle to pull up first and wait for them to come back.

The darkness is very concealing, and we have already explored these four situations during the day.

After Fu Bao escaped from her father's sight, she slipped into space.

Song Yu is good at skills and has good inner skills. He can see things at night. It is better to move alone than to carry her as a burden.

The waiting time was a little boring, so Fu Bao opened a watermelon and dug into it with a spoon.

It’s better to have space and constant temperature!

It was neither cold nor hot, and if it weren't for the time limit, she wouldn't want to go out.

In the quiet night, in order to save money, the two gatekeepers of the yamen were taking a nap. The lights inside were dark and nothing could be seen at all.

Song Yu once had the honor to see the construction maps of various county offices, government offices, and palaces when he was accompanying His Highness.

All the government buildings in Dongli were built to different specifications, but the locations of warehouses and other important places were the same as those on the map.

After thinking for a moment, he found a location, and with the help of the power of the tree trunk, he jumped into the county government office.

But what is surprising is that this county government office is poorly guarded, and there are no servants or maids in the backyard. It is, on the contrary, very poor.

Song Yu noticed that a light was on in front of him, so he climbed onto the beam and hung on the beam.

"You damn old man, why didn't you listen to me when I asked you not to come pick me up?"

"It's just a matter of a few steps. If I don't pick you up, you can't smear me and scare me."

"Have you slept, sir? If you are still dealing with business, I will go to the kitchen and make a bowl of some noodles for you."

"Go to bed early. I heard the bearer who was on duty today came back and said that your Excellency has been running around all day and has only prepared five hundred taels of silver. He is exhausted."

"Our Lord Magistrate is a good man. Good people are rewarded. I hope you can relax. The government's disaster relief funds will be received on time, so you don't have to be so tired."

"That's right. In fact, the treasury has been out of money for a long time. If you hadn't used your own salary to make up for it, I'm afraid this group of refugees wouldn't have been able to be resettled so quickly."

"Hey, when will this day end?"

"Don't think about it. Your Majesty has a way and will solve it. Let's go back to the house to rest first. We will get up early tomorrow to serve you, boil water and make breakfast for you."

"Yeah, listen to your old man."

After the old couple left, the black shadow on the beam fell gently and walked towards the warehouse.

Song Yu thought to himself, it seems that this magistrate of Tao County is a good parent official.

It may be a good decision to send the ill-gotten gains of the Lian family to the county government!
