Chapter 350 Local forces
Although Yu Zhi mentioned it first, but Wen Jiuxiao was really tempted, Yu Zhi felt a little surprised, "Are you really going to ask your father for help?"
As far as Yu Zhi knows, the relationship between Wen Jiuxiao and her father-in-law is just so-so... Well, she admits, it's actually not so-so. This pair of father and son quarreled as soon as they met. Even if they didn't quarrel, it's because you have yin and yang, and I have yin and yang, which is different from ordinary father and son.
Moreover, Wen Jiuxiao is used to being independent, and he doesn't like to ask what his family wants, so he came to Shanyun County just now and asked for staff from his family. As for the money given by the father-in-law, Wen Jiuxiao said it was Cheng Yi.
Father and son are obviously bored with each other, and Yu Zhi also knows that most of them are Wen Jiuxiao's unilateral dislike for his father. He is so arrogant, how can he be willing to bow his head to his father?
Wen Jiuxiao, who was thinking about how to pluck his father's wool, looked up, a little confused, "Ah, can't it? Didn't you suggest it? I think it's a good idea."
Yu Zhi was a little dumbfounded, okay? Wen Jiuxiao thinks this is a good idea? Is he the one who can bend his waist for five buckets of rice? How proud he is! On the surface, he looks quite humble, but in his heart, tsk tsk, he really wants God to take care of his second child. Even if Princess An Le provoked him, a person who would dare to kill him would be willing to beg his father for money?
This style of painting is wrong, it is too inconsistent.
"No, you are not with your father, so what, can you be wronged?"
Although Yu Zhi's words were confused, Wen Jiuxiao still understood what she meant. He pulled the man into his lap, "What made Madam have such a misunderstanding about her husband? Zhi Zhi, Wen's family is not separated. I can't let my son be released, and the family won't recognize me as a son." I have made political achievements outside, isn’t it also a face to the Marquis of Wu’an and my father? Isn’t it right for my family to support me? Besides, I am also a descendant, and my family property gets at least 30% of my family property. Right? That won’t work, they are all the same son, why?”
Yu Zhi is very messy. She really can't understand the intricate relationship of the ancient family... Forget it, just be happy.
Wen Jiuxiao played with Yu Zhi's soft and boneless little hands while talking in his head, thinking about how to write letters to his father so as to get more wool. Money, what he lacks most now is money.
Yinzi...as if he suddenly thought of something, he said, "You are right, you want to suppress the bandits."
Shanyun County is short of everything, and he has nothing to do in a short time. It is not a long-term solution to use his own money to pay for it.
Yes, to suppress bandits.
It is too wasteful to use guards to build a house. They have to be evacuated and do something they should do. As for building a house, let’s recruit workers. Hire locals to do it.
There are four local forces in Shanyun County, namely the Zhang family, the Yan family, the Ma family and the Song family. Except for the Zhang family who has a son who is doing inspections, the other three families have no one in the county government. It's not that he didn't want to, but that Lan Huanping resisted the pressure and refused to let these families have the opportunity to install people at all. He knew very well in his heart that if these families got involved, he would be able to make him the county magistrate, and the entire Shanyun County would become a family of Zhang Yan, Ma and Song.
Lan Huanping is a stubborn old man. The county government is short of people, and if they are short, they will be short. The patrol inspector of the Zhang family followed someone else's path, and he couldn't stop him, but he quickly moved him away so that he could not interfere with the official affairs of the county government.
Anyway, Shanyun County is poor, and can’t afford a salary, and can’t afford to support people. If your Zhang family is willing to provide rice and grain to support people, then so be it.
The new county magistrate has changed. As a local big family, can you not weigh and weigh? Regardless of the fact that these four families have not shown up, they have already sent people to inquire about the news in private.
Although these four families can be called big families locally, what is Shanyun County? Poor mountains and rivers, poor villages and remote places, they just have more money in their families, more servants, live in a bigger house, and have more shops and villages at home, but their hands can’t reach the capital, and they don’t even have any connections in the state capital. I don't know the origin of the identity of the new county magistrate.
Knowing that he is a child of the capital, Lan Huanping deliberately leaked this out when he left, in order to make these families fearful, and stop thinking about tripping up the new county magistrate.
Even if they don’t know the origin of the new county magistrate, they have eyes. The new county magistrate brought so many people, so many horses and supplies, can they not see it? They all understand that this one is different from Lan Huanping, he has a backer, and he is probably the son of some wealthy family in Beijing to get his qualifications. But to go to such a poor place as Shanyun County to get qualifications, what do the family think?
Zhai Yougui and others sent word to these families that the new county magistrate would host a banquet for them. Zhang Yan, Ma Song and the others didn't know where the county magistrate came from, so they naturally wanted to inquire carefully, but Zhai Yougui was like a loach, his hands were slippery, his mouth was like a clam shell, tight.
This Zhai Yougui is said to be a head catcher in the yamen, but doesn’t he go to repair houses and run errands for others every day? Whoever put him in the eye before, will be trembling now, and the magistrate of the county has an order.
Hmph, the villain succeeds.
If it was in the past, they would have lost their temper. But not now, didn't you see that Zhai Yougui was wearing the official uniform of the policeman? That waist knife is new, right? Not only can't offend, but also greet with a smile.
As soon as the person left, his face fell off, and his brows were so wrinkled that they could kill a fly.
The new county magistrate hosted a banquet for them, and also specified that each family could bring a son. Could it be that he was showing favor to them and promoting their son? Thinking of the vacancies such as magistrates, magistrates, and directors who were vacated by the county government, their hearts were burning, and they really wanted to say that they could keep an eye on their own sons without mentioning them.
No, how can there be such a good thing? They quickly calmed down again. The children of the rich and powerful families in Beijing have always had their eyes above the top, so how can they have their eyes on them? Could it be that they want to ask them for money and food?
This is not easy to handle, right? They are definitely not happy. What's more, there is still a question of how much to give. Give too much, it hurts. If there is less, can the new county magistrate agree? Don't give it at all...I'm afraid it won't work.
The heads of several families were tangled there, terribly worried. As for their sons, each of them is secretly competing. Who will dad bring to the dinner? That's a banquet hosted by the new county magistrate. If there is a chance to fall into the eyes of the new county magistrate, wouldn't there be a bright future?
Soon it was the day of the banquet, and the banquet was held in the county government office. The newly tidied up small hall was decorated by Qingfeng. On the wall were calligraphy and paintings brought by Wen Jiuxiao, and on the small table were provided by Yu Zhi. The bottle insertion is quite capable of bluffing people.
It stands to reason that Yu Zhi should also entertain the female relatives of various families. Yu Zhi was pushed back, not in a hurry, she had just arrived, and hadn't figured out what was going on, she never liked to fight unprepared battles.
