Chapter 40: Handover

After entering the yamen, Zhao Shouzheng first bowed to the Yimen, and then came to the ring stone pavilion, and paid attention to the stone tablet in the pavilion, which was three strong big characters 'Gongshengming'.

These words are for the common people.

After Zhao Erye went around to the back of the monument, the sixteen big characters there were for the county lord to see.

'Erlu, the people are fat and the people are anointed, the people are easy to abuse, and the heavens are difficult to deceive! ’

These four sentences of Emperor Taizu's holy precepts are facing the county hall, and they can be seen when the county magistrate looks up when he is trying the case. The purpose is to warn them, honestly, Lao Tzu is staring at you!

In fact, there is a land shrine in the east of the Jieshi Pavilion, which was originally a tourist attraction that the county must pass through when he took office - there are a number of corrupt official puppets who were skinned and filled with grass by Emperor Taizu hanging in it to set an example!

In the evening, the county did not arrange this thriller project.

In fact, at this moment, He Xiancheng wanted to let Zhao Erye go in to visit and kill his majesty......

But considering that Zhao Erye has already looked at himself extremely unpleasantly, let's give up after thinking about it.

~~

After worshipping the Yashen, Zhao Erye changed into court clothes, walked up to the lobby, and bowed to the north to thank the Holy Grace.

After getting up, the magistrate still had to bow to Yin.

Feng Zhixian, who was about to worry about Ding Zhixian, was dressed in white clothes, wearing a horned hat, and the big seal wrapped in red silk with both hands rested upright on the big case.

Second Master Zhao kowtowed to the big seal respectfully, and then got up and took over the copper seal representing the highest power of a county from Feng Zhixian's hand.

From this moment on, the power and obligations are officially handed over, and Zhao Erye is really shouldering the fate of the people of a county.

Then he and Feng Zhixian exchanged salutes and turned to the flower hall to speak.

"Hot filial piety is in the body, there are a number of rudeness, and I hope that Brother Haihan of Gongming is still alive." Although Feng Zhixian said this, his demeanor at this moment was much more relaxed than before.

"Brother Yuanshan mourned, and was shocked to hear that the first monarch drove the crane and was overwhelmed with mourning."

Sending the second master showed a look of mourning, and followed the thick part.

"How does this work?" Feng Zhixian was deeply embarrassed, the small treasury he left for Zhao Shouzheng was not as many as the people who followed.

"Brother Yuanshan doesn't have to be polite, Ding Wei has no income for three years, so he has the right to subsidize the family." Zhao Shouzheng waved his hand, and he was the most handsome when he gave away silver.

"This, thank you Brother Gongming for your kindness." Feng Zhixian was moved, and suddenly felt that he and Zhao Erye hated to see each other late, and the tone of his speech changed.

"It's not a secret, the foolish brother has been an official in a poor place in Kunshan for two years, which is only enough for daily expenses, and he has not saved his family money at all, and he is worried about how to live in the future."

Zhao Hao, who was standing behind Zhao Erye as a scholar, was still a little unimpressed when he heard this. No matter how poor the people are, they can't be poor with their old parents, right?

Unless it's a lord like Hai Jui, who doesn't even want reasonable and legal standing money......

However, it must not be comparable with other counties in Suzhou.

After a few polite words, Feng Zhixian took the initiative to introduce various situations in the county to Zhao Shouzheng. It is probably because the grain in the warehouse is not available, and the treasury is unable to make ends meet, and the officials of the county, including him, have not paid their salaries for two months.

"Huh?" Second Master Zhao was taken aback, knowing that Kunshan was poor, but he didn't expect to be poor like this.

Thinking that He County had not paid his salary for two months, and he had to be dumped by himself, he felt very sorry.

"This is normal, and this is often the case in this county, and it is usually the case that the arrears are paid after the summer grain is harvested." Feng Zhixian sighed and said, "Seeing that the summer grain is half soaked in the soup, I really can't bear to throw this mess to Brother Gongming." ”

"There's still half of the county unflooded, isn't it?" Zhao Shouzheng said with a strong smile.

"It's a third." Feng Zhixian raised three fingers, then curled up two and said: "The terrain north of Yanglintang is low-lying, and the water from Yangcheng Lake has already submerged it at this time. ”

Oh, Zhao Shouzheng's heart is cold, it's really bad news.

"What is comforting is that the land in Kunbei is seriously flooded and has been abandoned." Feng Zhixian hurriedly comforted him and said, "So it's not a loss." ”

"yes." Zhao Shouzheng nodded, and said with a smile: "There is nothing in the first place, where is the dust?" ”

"Brother Gongming is really open-minded." Feng Zhixian praised it, and then planned for Zhao Erye: "So what we can count on at present is the four thousand hectares of land in the central part of the country." If you can survive the summer harvest, you can still collect about 100,000 stones...... As a rule, this year's taxes can be exempted, but don't think about the imperial court's relief...... 100,000 stone of grain can be eaten by the victims for three months, and it should be able to last until the autumn harvest. ”

"Therefore, before the autumn harvest, we must send the victims out to ask for food, and if it is late, there will be less food." He lowered his head again.

Zhao Shouzheng was disgusted when he heard this, how could he secretly send his people to ask for food? This magistrate is too shameless, right?

Who knows, but listened to Feng Zhixian's depressed expression and continued:

"In addition, this official also has to go to Fucheng at this time, and he can always squeeze out ten thousand handfuls of stone grain from the fingers of Fuzun for a few days. When you come back, you must go to Wujiang County, those bastards don't open the floodgates, and they should give the county thousands of stones of grain. ”

Seeing that Feng Zhixian was suddenly stunned, Zhao Hao and his son looked at each other. This errand of the magistrate of Kunshan County actually grinded people into idiots.

I just listened to him and continued:

"There is also the Songjiang River downstream, if it weren't for their polders being too powerful and the Wusong River flowing too slowly, would we be able to waterlog like this? So I have to ask them for it...... However, the Xu family has always been arrogant, and their attitude must be tougher, claiming that they have a branch of the same year, and they want to impeach them for blocking the river. Usually, in order not to cause trouble to Xu Ge Lao, they will also give a ...... of several thousand stones."

It turns out that this is called Huakunshan, and even the county order should be called Huazi......

"Brother Yuanshan." Zhao Shouzheng heard that his tears were about to fall, and he couldn't bear it, so he called a few times. "You're already worried."

"Uh, oh, ah!" Feng Zhixian's expression changed several times, and he figured out the situation. And then the ...... of liberation dripped. Oh no, tears of pain. "Great...... Oh, I mean, 'Taihao has also arrived, and Xuan Ming has not yet returned'. ”

My son's name is Zhao Hao. Zhao Shouzheng secretly complained, and asked Feng Zhixian: "What help can Nanjing have?" ”

"Didn't Ling Zun once serve as Shao Situ?" Feng Zhixian smiled bitterly and said: "Brother Gongming should know best how hard the door is in the southern household." ”

"Hehe......" Zhao Shouzheng laughed awkwardly, and said in his heart, I don't know.

Taking the opportunity of laughing awkwardly, he glanced at Zhao Hao again, only to see his son blowing lightly.

Second Master Zhao immediately understood: "Then may I ask Brother Yuanshan, how is the scenery here?" ”

"The folk customs are more simple than those in neighboring counties, mainly because all the shrewd ones have moved to neighboring counties and have not returned, and the rest are some naphtha." Feng Zhixian hesitated as he spoke, but for the sake of Cheng Yi, he still lowered his voice and said: "But the gentry of this county should pay special attention, there are a few bad people who are afraid that they will hold back their strength and want to oppose you." ”

"Really?" Second Master Zhao gasped and said, "Which brothers are they?" ”

"It's inconvenient to name names." Feng Zhixian didn't dare to say it directly, but sighed and said: "This county is surrounded by strong neighbors, and even Beppu can be bullied, it's really difficult." ”

"That's ......" Zhao Shouzheng saw that his son lowered his eyelids slightly, obviously understood, so he also nodded, indicating that he understood.
