"Hurry up, get this cart of rocks over!"

"Be careful, be careful, don't hit people. ”

"Dig up all this silt...... Oh, it's out of the water again. ”

In front of the original site of the Dragon Lady Temple, a large group of people are enthusiastically building a new Dragon Lady Temple, cleaning up the ruins, and digging an ancient well again.

"My lord!" a commanding scribe, after being reminded by others, found Wang Shoutian on horseback, and hurriedly trotted over and saluted.

"I came over to see what was going on. Wang Shoutian looked at the people around there and asked, "It seems that it was built very quickly, well, digging an ancient well?"

"My lord, you see, the foundation of this temple is still very good, everyone will work together, and it will not be a problem to build it within three days, by the way, this ancient well, the well water is sweet, and it seems that it has not been abolished. The scribe said respectfully and with satisfaction.

"Come, give me a bowl too, and I'll drink it and see how the water goes." Hearing what the other party said, Wang Shoutian suddenly became interested, turned over and dismounted, and walked towards the well.

The soldiers behind him had to dismount and follow him.

But it's not He Zhong and the others.

The first one, wearing a fire chief robe, served respectfully, but it was the last time Chen Xiang was killed, the seriously injured Wu Commander, his name was Gan Hou, and after the injury recovered, he inspected his family background and performance, and was promoted to the chief of the soldiers.

He Zhong was sent to the army, or as a fire commander, what happens in the future, it depends on his performance, and this matter is over.

The scribe hurriedly asked people to fetch a bucket of water and a bowl of water for Wang Shoutian to taste.

"Well, it's really sweet, it's good. Wang Shoutian took the bowl, took a sip, and praised again and again, the water is very sweet and clear, and the water temperature is in winter.

After that, he asked with some doubts: "This ancient well can still be used, and the well water is also very sweet, why was it abandoned later?"

"My lord, according to legend, there is a dragon girl living in the Jishui River, she is in charge of the rain and various crops within a radius of hundreds of miles, and the water of this ancient well comes from her Dragon Palace, which is exceptionally sweet and delicious. ”

"Twenty years ago, there was a [***] in this county, 3,000 people were killed, and the incense of the temple dedicated to the dragon girl was broken, and after that, the water of this ancient well slowly dried up, and the people thought that this well could no longer dig water, so it was slowly abandoned. Speaking of this, the scribe sighed for a while and said: "Originally, I didn't have much hope for digging the well this time, just cleaned it up, but I didn't expect that the well actually began to have water again." ”

"Dragon Girl?" For these legends, Wang Shoutian is skeptical.

"How is the Dragon Maiden Temple being built now?" Wang Shoutian decided to go inside to take a look.

"Yes, my lord, I'll lead you there!" the scribe suddenly thought of something, and said with some hesitation, "However, it is only half built, and there are bricks and tiles everywhere. ”

"It's okay, I'm just going to go and take a look. Wang Shoutian smiled and said.

led the way over, and at this time, everyone who was busy stopped and kowtowed to Wang Shoutian.

The size of the Dragon Lady Temple is not very large, and these craftsmen have only restored it from the original site, and now they are half built, and it is estimated that they will be able to go up the beams tomorrow.

The statue of the dragon goddess, of course, is too late for clay carving, but there is also a way, that is, wood carving, a few carpenters have done it, and half of the carving has been made, but the dragon girl is very charming, with dragon horns.

"Jishui County Chronicles" cloud: "Dragon Maiden Temple, heavy nine flower jujube cakes, wine boarding...... Scholars and women are especially numerous. ”

It is said that in those years, the Dragon Maiden Temple was famous all over the world, and every year on September 9, they had to come here to worship the Dragon Maiden, and during the Chung Yeung Festival every year, a five-day temple fair was held.

Merchants gather in front of the Dragon Lady Temple, and the opera troupe and juggling are very lively.

And every time there is a drought and no rain, the villagers come to pray, hoping that the sky will rain.

Wang Shoutian stood at the door of the main hall, watching this, and many thoughts flashed in his heart in an instant.

The reason why he wanted to come to the temple to see it was not that he really had a special interest in the dragon girl, in the 21st century of the earth in his previous life, self-cultivation and self-enlightenment, watching the gods, it was nothing more than that.

I just feel that the people in the city need a sustenance to settle their hearts.

Besides, the temple was also the spiritual food of the people at that time.

In this era of this world, entertainment is poor, and visiting the temple and watching a play is the greatest enjoyment.

Moreover, Wang Shoutian also intends to do some hygiene.

In general, the county town has a narrow space, and every household dumps garbage on the street, so the garbage on the street is piled up, and the smell is high for a long time, and passers-by can often only cover their noses.

There are no sewer works, and domestic wastewater often cannot be dumped and can only accumulate on the ground, and if it rains, the water flow is not smooth, and the streets become rivers.

The squalor and filth of the city is a hotbed of disease, and a large number of diseases are prevalent.

Although now, the county seat is rebuilt, but Wang Shoutian is not interested in living in a dangerous city, if there is a plague, it is not uncommon for half of a county to die.

According to Wang Shoutian's plan, first the sewer has been built, and the next step is to build public toilets and public baths, which is not something ahead of its time, and it was very common in the Song Dynasty on the earth.

After thinking about it, Wang Shoutian Gu said left and right: "Go to the county office." ”

The county government, but it is also indispensable, this covers an area of 8000 square meters, now it is relatively simple, but there are also distribution of gates, lobby, two halls, welcome halls, three halls and other buildings, if the population is more in the future, it will be expanded, and the garden and the like will also be built, and now it is more than enough to meet the office.

When he arrived at the door, Xue Yuan greeted him and bowed.

Xue Yuan was wearing a stone blue official uniform, full of energy, and his expression was different.

"My lord, you are here today, and I have something to tell you about, but recently some homeless people have come again. ”

"Oh, there are still displaced people at this time, are they forced by the winter harvest to collect taxes?" Wang Shoutian pondered for a while and asked.

"Lord, what you said is right, most of them are the displaced people in Taisu County opposite, Sichuan has been defeated this year, to rebuild, naturally need a lot of food and money, so it is inevitable to expropriate and expropriate, the people have no food and clothing, I heard that we can have food here, so they rushed here, there are hundreds. ”

"This is very easy, I promise you to allocate military rations for relief, but you have to organize households and supervise the annihilation. ”

"No, lord, however, this homeless person in Taisu County is still a trivial matter, but there are homeless people in this town, how to deal with this?" Xue Yuan asked with a solemn face.

"The homeless people in this town?" Wang Shoutian frowned.

"Wenyang Mansion, in addition to the city, there are Kaiming County, Xingshan County, Donglan County, and Zhengding County. ”

"Kaiming County is managed by civil officials, the county Li Cunyi is generous, very popular, there are no displaced people, Xingshan County is under the jurisdiction of the general Heyi, the governor of Changcedu, to support a capital of troops, but the so-called do not know how to govern, fill their pockets, and the people are very poor. ”

"Zhengding County was originally under the jurisdiction of Yanshan, but because Lu Yan died in battle, the marshal took it back and appointed Fu Ting as the magistrate, and the current situation is okay. ”

"Donglan County is the jurisdiction of Shachengdu, and the general Zhang Yunxin is okay. ”

"Now there are displaced people, flowing out of Xingshan County, how to deal with the lord?"

After saying this, Wang Shoutian's face was cloudy.

said that he was a big handsome, but in fact, in terms of territory, it was only Wenyang Mansion itself that was controlled, and other Kaiming County, Xingshan County, Donglan County, and Zhengding County all had problems.

In terms of the army, in addition to the black guards, the other three also have problems.

In his previous life, he just wanted to centralize power and take back power, but he was eager for quick success, which led to the rebellion of his relatives and gave Li Chengye the opportunity to pick peaches.

Hmph, from the previous life, although Heyi and the other generals were rebellious, there were no people who had a backbone.

This time, the displaced people in Xingshan County are definitely due to fleeing the famine, but they may also be plotted by people......

If he received the displaced people, maybe someone would provoke him, making Heyi dissatisfied with himself and laying the root of the curse.

However, drive the displaced people back, and then be executed by Heyi?

Or let it be in the wilderness, starving to death in the winter?

Wang Shoutian refused, and this is not only a matter of principle, but also a matter of increasing strength.

Jishui County was first built, and it needed a population to enrich it, and after thinking about it, Wang Shoutian said: "Send ten horses, ten pairs of armor, to the general Heyi, you go in person, in order to win his favor." Seeing his pleasure, he casually talked about the homeless, and said that the county lacked a population, and that there was something offensive, and I would like to forgive him. ”

"Yes, my lord, this is indeed a good way, and now it is not appropriate for my lord to have a dirty relationship with the general. Xue Yuan nodded and said.

Wang Shoutian has no joy in his heart, Li Cunyi, the magistrate of Kaiming County, is generous in governing the government, and he is very popular, and the reputation of the Li family has gone out after more than ten years of operation!

This is the bane of the future, but it is as dangerous as the tooth will be reckless.

At this time, there was no way, Wang Shoutian had to get down to business first: "If the city is not clean, it is easy to have plagues, and I want to build a public bathhouse and a public toilet in the way of a dragon girl's dream? The manure of the public toilet can also be convenient for fertilization." ”

I also talked about the specific requirements, which is to select a full-time cleaner to be responsible for cleaning the streets.

At the same time, residents are required not to litter, and toilet feces must be dumped in designated public toilets.

But the real intention is not said, such as the very critical content that dung can be used to make nitrate, which is one of the forces that will determine the surname in the future.

"Since the lord has this intention, it is not difficult to do this. Xue Yuan thought about it and did not object: "After the second day, the Dragon Girl Temple will hold a collective sacrifice, and when the time comes, I will announce the matter." ”

Wang Shoutian smiled, in his impression, this area resumed sacrifice, and it would be three years later for Li Chengye to capture this place and resume sacrifice.

Since it's a matter of time, let's preside over it in advance!

On the same day, it was rumored that Wang Shoutian dreamed of the dragon god at night, and then, a series of public health habits that are said to be ignited by the dragon god began to be promoted.

Two days later, the newly built Dragon Lady Temple ushered in the first sacrifice after many years. Wang Shoutian led the officials and many people to sacrifice the dragon girl here and sacrifice to the young prison.

For a time, the aroma of sacrifice filled the temple, the people cheered and jumped, and for many people, it was a rare New Year, and they were full of hope for the future.

And Wang Shoutian, the name of "capable official", began to spread under the propaganda of well-intentioned people.
