Chapter 412: The leader came to inspect the work

  Chapter 412 The leader came to inspect the work

  Sometimes she gets tired of reading the storybooks, Yu Zhi thinks she can’t be blamed for this, it’s really that the writers of the storybooks in this class are not good, they write vulgar stories, lack of innovation.

  Yu Zhi flipped through a few times, then threw the notebook Wen Jiuxiaoxin bought for her aside. It's just bad vulgarity, let's have some sweet plots! Wen Jiuxiao picked the book, imagine how clear the water is, who can read it?

  From the corner of the eye, she caught a glimpse of the booklet she had brought over from Wen Jiuxiao's table, picked it up, and saw that it was the household registration book, and this was just one of them.

   Forget it, let’s pass the time by looking at the household register. Yu Zhi leaned on the soft couch and flipped through the household registration book. Halfway through the page, he realized something was wrong, the ratio of male to female was too wrong.

  Take a small family of six as an example, parents and four children, three of the four children are sons, and only one is a daughter. This is not an isolated case, it is generally the case. It is recorded in this household registration book that almost every household has more boys than girls. There are more than two daughters in the family, such a family can't even occupy 30% of the family. However, families with more than two sons accounted for 90%.

  You can know the whole leopard from a glimpse, even if Yu Zhi only read one of the volumes, I believe it is the same for the rest of the volumes.

  It seems that even though the people in Shanyun County are more open, and there are not as many red tapes as in Beijing, there is still such a serious patriarchy. The ratio of male to female is out of balance, there are so few female children, male children cannot marry a wife when they grow up, the population cannot grow, and it is not conducive to social stability.

   Is there fewer female babies born? No, but the people are eager to have sons, who can carry on the family line and inherit the incense. Girls can't, they will marry into other people's family when they are brought up, so if the first child is a girl, that's okay, most of them will be raised. If the second or third child is still a girl, and the family can't afford it, she will either drown or throw her into the wild, and she will die.

  If things go on like this, won't Shanyun County become the situation where there are more men than women?

  Of course, just to be prudent, Yu Zhi decided to read all the household registers.

As soon as Yu Zhi got all the household registration books, Zhuo Zhengyang begged to see him in a hurry, "My lord, the magistrate has arrived, and he is at the inn now." After a pause, he added, "My subordinates think he should be for Hai The thief came."

  Wen Jiuxiao naturally understood Fan Huailiang's intentions, and felt a little headache. Isn't it just a few hundred pirates? Is it worthwhile for the magistrate to come here in person? It's not that Wen Jiuxiao doesn't welcome him, but that the magistrate is here, and some things are not easy to handle, at least they can't be put on the bright side.

   For example, it was seized from Ma Jiayan's house. Wen Jiuxiao has already thought about whether to give the magistrate a point, how much is appropriate?

   "Prepare your horse, come with me to meet the magistrate." It's already here, and Wen Jiuxiao can't leave him alone at the post station, so let's welcome back first. He looked at Yu Zhi, and before he could speak, Yu Zhi said first: "You are busy with your work, I will go back, so you don't have to worry about me, I promise I won't go anywhere. Oh, I asked Mama Jiang and the others to prepare Table food. By the way, is there a jar of wine as well?"

  Wen Jiuxiao originally wanted to say no, ordinary wine will do. Then I thought again, if the magistrate had a good drink, wouldn't there be so many troubles? He then said, "Get ready."

  The magistrate in the post station did not rest, but walked around to have a look, the more he looked, the more surprised he became. Is this still Shanyun County? When did Shanyun County change drastically?

  Fan Huailiang came to Shanyun County, several years ago. Dilapidated city walls, dusty streets, everywhere is poor and cramped.

   What you see in front of you is quite different. Although you have not entered the city, you can see the city wall from a distance. Let's talk about this inn. It can be seen that the house has been newly renovated. The inside and outside, including the courtyard walls, are painted white. The tables, chairs, benches, beds, and even the bedding in the room are all new. The yard was paved with bluestone slabs and swept clean.

  The subordinate officials who followed were also very surprised, "My lord, the road in Shanyun County is really well paved." It has been widened a lot, and a layer of gravel has been paved on it. Even if it is raining, the carriage will not get stuck in the mud.

  Fan Huailiang nodded, "Lord Xiaowen is capable." He was filled with emotions! How many days has Wen Jiuxiao been in office? Shanyun County has undergone earth-shaking changes! No wonder he became a marquis at such a young age, it can't be compared, it can't be compared!

  Fan Huailiang became more determined to make friends with Wen Jiuxiao, so when Wen Jiuxiao came to greet him, he didn't put on airs at all, and entered the city hand in hand with Wen Jiuxiao.

   Entering the city, the feeling is more intuitive. The streets are clean and tidy, the hawkers are shouting one after another, and there are smiles on the faces of pedestrians... The most eye-catching thing is the street, paved with bluestone slabs, painted with white lines and yellow lines, with two lanes for cars in the middle and people walking on both sides. You come and go, neat and orderly, methodical.

   Those who followed Fan Huailiang felt that they could not see with both eyes.

  When we arrived at the county government office, it was another scene. I can't say what is different, but I feel that even an old man who is the gatekeeper in the county government office is extraordinarily restrained. Oh, everyone can speak the official language.

  Fan Huailiang...

  To be honest, Fan Huailiang did not believe the letter of meritorious service received from Shanyun County. In the whole Chenzhou, not only Shanyun County is near the sea, pirates are rampant and ferocious, and the number of casualties reported to him every year is a shocking number. I've heard of pirates slaughtering villages, but I've never heard of such feats.

   Pirates have a boat, the boat is big and fast, they kill people and rob things, get on the boat and run away. The sea is vast, and the government has nothing to do with them.

  There were more than 200 levels of heads before, and more than 100 levels were added after a day, and nearly 400 pirate heads. Who has such a great ability? How can it be?

  Fan Huailiang didn't believe it. However, he couldn't help being shaken when he thought of Wen Jiuxiao's return to the state capital, those wolf-like guards. Maybe Master Xiaowen really has such a great ability? This was the reason for this trip to Shanyun County. He wanted to see the head of the pirate with his own eyes to see if it was real or not. After seeing it, he would report it to the court.

  Fan Huailiang saw the heads of the pirates, piled up on a hill by the sea, the weather was too hot, even after pickling them with lime, they still gave off a rotten smell. Fan Huailiang almost threw up, covered his mouth and nose, took a quick glance and left.

  As for the people who came with him, they were so disgusted that they vomited out the food of the previous night. At the reception banquet... Forget it, I can't even mention this, everyone feels sick when they see meat, like a woman is pregnant, it's too embarrassing.

  Wen Jiuxiao is also very helpless, it is what they want to see, what can he do?
