Chapter 349: Pull wool
Chapter 349 Pulling wool
"Boss, let's, are we going to get rich?" Coming out of the yamen, several policemen came out of the yamen, like a dream, "Why don't I think it's real? It's like a dream. "
Zhai Yougui patted his shoulder hard, "Does it hurt?"
The man replied honestly, "It hurts. Why are you hitting me, boss?"
"It's okay if it hurts." This idiot said, "Is it still a dream?"
The others shook their heads in unison.
Seeing this, Zhai Yougui said, "Have you heard what Mr. Wen said?"
Several people nodded, "I heard it."
"It's not enough to hear it, but you have to remember it and keep it in your heart." Zhai Yougui is full of enthusiasm now, and he wants to make a contribution so that he can be promoted to the history of the ceremony. , to practice with Captain Peng. I don’t know when the five will arrive. Let’s divide into two teams first, one to patrol the streets, and the other to wait in the yamen for Master Wen’s orders. Everyone tighten their skins, so we can’t go out. A mistake, such a good job, a lot of people want to come in." He tapped.
Several people nodded solemnly, "Boss, don't worry, we know the seriousness."
In the past, there was no money in the yamen, so naturally no one wanted to be this catcher. It's different now, not only can I get one or two taels of silver every month, the food is good, and I'm close to the county magistrate. They are the first to know about a good job, what a good job!
In the past two days, they took home the saved big white steamed buns, and the family members were shocked. Not to mention the children, even the parents have never eaten such a good thing, and they have never seen it. Although they have dry land in Shanyun County, they do not grow wheat, and only rich families can afford pasta.
But they were working in the county government, so the county magistrate let them eat such delicious big white steamed buns. Even a fool would not want to lose such an errand like a sweet potato.
"That's good, let's not talk about tomorrow, just go back and change your clothes now. Lord Wen told us to spread the word, and we will have a banquet with the local gentry and sages the day after tomorrow. Remember, the word can be passed on as long as it is delivered, and nothing that should not be said is allowed to leak out." .What should not be said? About us Mr. Wen are all things that should not be said, if you ask, you just don’t know.”
In order to go up, Zhai Yougui was really worried. Men are born with fanatical ambitions for power.
Before the disbandment, someone asked: "Boss, didn't Mr. Wen say that the concierge runner gave us a place, your son..."
Zhai Yougui immediately refused, "No, my eldest is only ten years old this year, a bit behind. I reckon Mr. Wen meant that he must be twelve years old or older, and my eldest is not suitable."
Glancing at a few people, he said again: "Master Wen trusts us, so he asked us to recommend someone. We can't let this job go to waste. Since it's the concierge who runs errands, you have to have quick legs and quick eyes. , be smart, and you have to be able to keep your mouth shut and don’t say anything. Genzi, isn’t your third brother thirteen this year? Give him this chance.”
Zhai Yougui is very clear about the situation in their family. Genzi's third brother is Liang Zi, who is of the right age, diligent, sweet-talking, and sensible. Zhai Yougui immediately thought of him.
Genzi was pleasantly surprised and surprised, "Yes, yes, my third brother is thirteen. Boss, this, this...I, I will go and call him here." He was so happy that he didn't know what to do.
Zhai Yougui grabbed him, "Not busy." He looked at the others, "Don't be dissatisfied and think that I'm biased. We, Mr. Wen, are capable people, so we have to choose people from the bottom. Pick the ones that should be used, and if you don’t use them properly, everyone can’t afford to be offended when Master Wen gets angry. In a word, it’s good to be an errand, and there will definitely be opportunities like this in the future, it depends on whether you can seize it.”
Others said one after another: "We all understand, we all listen to the boss."
Wen Jiuxiao is very busy, the population of Shanyun County is too small, at least it is a county town, only a few thousand people. There are quite a lot of villages under the rule, but the population of each village... the smallest village is only a dozen or so households with dozens of people. Live too spread out.
Taxation...cannot be mentioned, it is sad to mention it.
Such a place... Wen Jiuxiao tapped his fingers on the table, worrying about himself.
"Yo, I'm busy." Yu Zhi came over from the inner house, the purpose of entering was to hear Jiu Xiaosheng's loveless appearance, "What are you looking at?"
Wen Jiuxiao leaned back, motioning for her to watch for herself.
Yu Zhi leaned over and looked at it for a while, "Seven thousand people? Isn't that too little?" In her last life, let alone a university, an ordinary high school had three to four thousand people. "Did those exiles be counted? The mountain people must not be counted. I think there should be hermits."
Not only troublesome people, there should be wanted criminals fleeing here, right? It's like Xinjiang and Tibet in my previous life.
"There must be." Wen Jiuxiao was very sure, but it was not easy to move this part.
Yu Zhi shrugged his shoulders and felt very sympathetic to him, "Third Lord is going to have to work hard. Fortunately, you are the boss of Shanyun County. Even if the local forces don't cooperate, you can still enforce it by force, so first hold the military power in your hands." Bar."
Wen Jiuxiao laughed all of a sudden, "There are only a few arrests left in the entire yamen. How many soldiers do you think this place can have?"
"Isn't there inspection? He has no soldiers under his command? Is he just a bare-bones commander?"
Wen Jiuxiao said: "Yes, there is only one inspector in Shanyun County, with less than a hundred people under his command, half of them are filled by his family's family member Ding." Lan Huanping told him about this, the inspector's surname is Zhang, From the Zhang family, one of the local forces.
Yu Zhi was at a loss for words, pulled a pile of paperwork, and studied it secretly, "Shouldn't a county have three inspectors? No inspector can have a hundred people under his command. Let's bring over two hundred guards. Isn't that a good idea?" Has the place been installed? Three inspectors, two of them are yours, look, the military power is in your hands."
Military power...just these two or three hundred people can still be called military power, which is really shabby.
Sympathize with Wen Jiuxiao again.
"I can't afford it." Wen Jiuxiao thought for a while, and with the three melons and dates allotted by the court, plus his salary, he simply couldn't afford to support so many people.
"Don't you still have me? I'll help you raise it!" Yu Zhi tilted his head and smiled triumphantly.
In the eyes of others, Shanyun County is poor and poor, but in Yu Zhi’s view, there are still many resources, let’s just say so many mountains and forests, there are many treasures hidden in them.
As long as the road is repaired, she can sell things, and it is not impossible to help start a local industry. At that time, won't the small money roll in?
Government-business cooperation is a good way out.
Although Wen Jiuxiao was happy in his heart, he couldn't take his wife's money for granted. Yu Zhi's eyes flickered, and he said, "What are you afraid of? Isn't there a father in Beijing?"
Wen Jiuxiao was thoughtful, yes, he was reluctant to spend his daughter-in-law's money, but it was okay to spend my father's money.
Yes, he has to think about how to squeeze the wool.
