Lady Caisang: My husband is a little sweet

Chapter 354 Methods
Jiang Rong'an thought for a while, and called the master, Dian Shi and others, asking them to think of a way.

The head book rolled his eyes, "Sir, why don't you worry about this kind of thing, just order those landlords and gentry to find a way, they are much richer than us."

Hearing this, Dian Shi's face stiffened, and he hurriedly lowered his head and said nothing. The director's eyesight was still as short-sighted, and he still couldn't see that this new lord was not the county magistrate who didn't care about anything in the past?
"Those squires and landlords who have money belong to their families. What do you mean you want me to be a bandit?" Jiang Rong'an glared sharply. The master still didn't learn much.

Fortunately, there is no county magistrate, and he took many things back into his own hands, and the chief secretary was in charge of small things, otherwise he would not know how much he would be hindered.

The director trembled in his heart, how could he have forgotten that this county magistrate is not someone who didn't do much in the past.

Thinking about it, the master hurriedly apologized, "My lord, forgive me, I didn't think carefully, and I hope my lord will forgive me."

"I don't care much about your small actions on weekdays, but it doesn't mean that other things can be done arbitrarily." Jiang Rong'an gave a warning look at several people. They are all people who have been in the county government for many years. Don't really think that Others can't clean it up.

"My lord, how about discussing with the landlords and squires like before?" Dian Shi said a little nervously.

Jiang Songwan couldn't help sneering when he heard this, and said first: "How can we discuss everything? Where does this put the dignity of an adult? This kind of thing is done once or twice, and such trivial things have to be asked, how can I ask?" Isn't it blatantly saying that adults are incompetent?"

After a few words, no one else dared to speak.

Seeing this, Jiang Rong'an couldn't help but sighed, "Master, I think you are familiar with where there are houses for rent in the county. If you find a house to rent, I will pay the money. You have to find out their household registration. If there is no household registration , and re-enter."

"Yes, my lord, I'll do it right away." The master secretary hurried out, thinking that this matter must be done, his position is not irreplaceable, and he cannot lose this fat job.

Jiang Rong'an looked at Dian Shi, "You move out all the old county chronicles, and take advantage of this winter to repair and update them. In addition, you have to sort out all kinds of situations in the academy."

In fact, the work of Dian Shi was responsible for drafting the county magistrate's documents. Jiang Rong'an felt that this position was not necessary, so he simply arranged other things. For a person who was selected as a scholar, these were not so difficult.

Nanping County is much larger than Sanhua County, but it is not as lively as Sanhua County. There are not so many shops on the street, and many small vendors are pushing carts or carrying goods.

As expected, the master book has been operating in the local area for many years. It is clear where there are vacant houses. I rented a house two streets behind the county office. Although it is a bit remote, it is enough for those poor people.

The people in the charity hall are all homeless old people, and there are also abandoned babies or people with physical problems, etc. They are all thin, their faces are sallow and sallow, and their eyes are lifeless.

The master and apprentice of the Earth Temple also moved here. Compared with those who have various problems, Master Wang can at least read a few words, so Jiang Rong'an temporarily asked him to take care of the meals in the charity hall.

The house was rented here, and those people were moved in. Within two days, someone sent some coarse grains and old clothes over.

Jiang Rong'an thought for a while, and chose an honest person among the officials to take care of him, so as not to cause trouble.

Sometimes, the more difficult it is, the more evil thoughts and faults the person has.Jiang Rong'an didn't have the good intentions to support these people. He had already planned how to arrange it in the future.

Jiang Rong'an organized people to repair the river and ditches again, so that there would be no problems in the next year when the snow melted and rained.At the same time, this time is also a critical time for cellaring, after all, everyone wants to have a prosperous winter.

At the same time, all the villages, including the counties, have already counted the very poor, widowed elderly or orphans. At the beginning, he said that he would not delay taxes, and if he solved the follow-up problems, he would naturally promise to do so.

So Jiang Rong'an paid for it out of his own pocket, and these people supplemented the corresponding coarse grains to survive this winter.

The imperial court will not collect all the grain collected from taxes, so if there is no accident, there will be surplus grain in the granary every year, and these surplus grains are often kept just in case. Of course, the approach of each county magistrate is different .

There was leftover grain in last year's granary, and Jiang Rong'an paid for these, which were naturally cheaper, and the money was counted into the county government's finances, or roads or bridges were built.

Of course, these grains are not enough to make up those holes, but Jiang Rong'an, who grows from Zhuangzi in the east, can handle them. All the seeds have been picked out, and the ones that will be used in Zhuangzi next year will be kept, and all the rest will be replaced.

Of course, for the local landlords and squires, Jiang Rongan revealed the news in advance. If the other party wants to change, they can only do so within the specified time.

However, the seeds that each household can exchange for are limited. After all, the current production of Zhuangzi is not enough to supply the fields of the entire county.

Three buckets of ordinary grain can be exchanged for two buckets of seeds, which can only be exchanged for one stone at most, and it is impossible to get more.

However, for the seed change, the response was not as enthusiastic as expected. First of all, three buckets are exchanged for two buckets, even the children know that they are losing money. What if the harvest next year does not increase as the county magistrate said?

However, the gentry and landlords in the county were very supportive, and they all offered three shi of ordinary grain in exchange.

However, Jiang Rong'an had someone check it later, and found that many of them were mixed with old grain or the worst kind. Fortunately, they were marked at the beginning, so it was clear who they were.

"Young master, these people are too much." Jiang Songwan was very upset. His young master worked so hard to seek for the local people, but he didn't expect them to be ungrateful at all. It's really a dog who bites Lu Dongbin and doesn't know a good heart.

"Those people probably think that our young master is young, and think they can deceive him." Jiang Songzao frowned slightly, out of trust in those people, he just took a rough look and didn't check carefully.

"It's okay." Jiang Rong'an waved his hand, "Isn't the common people coming to exchange for less than one-third?"

"Yes, master." This was beyond their expectations, and Jiang Songwan was a little downcast.

Jiang Rong'an thought for a while, "It's okay, let's just say that before the seeds are planted next year, you can come and exchange them before the seeds are replaced."

"I'll get someone to notify you later." Jiang Song nodded early, "Young Master, someone caught a cold at the temporary residence of the Charity Hall. I asked someone to invite a doctor. Do you want everyone to take a look?"

"Go and make arrangements." Jiang Rong'an nodded, and asked Jiang Songwan beside him, "Songwan, you have a lot of people coming and going, what do so many people do here in winter?"
