Chapter 158: The “price” of Huju City

The yamen servants politely invited Yan Huaiwen and Liang Manshan into the city.

The fire started to be lit at the gate of the city, and the big guys lined up in a long queue in an orderly manner.

There was no scrambling for the first place, no squabbles.

Everything is so calm, harmonious, and natural.

The second iron took the lead and ran to the front with the third iron.

The two watched without blinking as the yamen servant poured water, threw rice into the pot, and boiled the water to remove firewood...

When the yamen servants were about to throw straws into it, Er Tie and San Tie stared wide-eyed with shock on their faces.

The two boys pursed their lips tightly and did not speak, but their expressions said everything they wanted to say.

The yamen servant kindly explained: "People who have been hungry for a long time can't be full, and they can't eat too fast. The elder is sympathetic to you, uh..."

He couldn't continue, looking at the strong men behind the line, and then at his brothers.

Hey! Who is the disaster victim? It looks stronger than us.

He threw the straw without a trace, and shook his head at the others.

Several yamen servants didn't do anything more.

The exciting porridge giving session has finally begun!

The big guys are so excited.

This is rice soup that doesn’t cost money, it’s free, just three days!

Even if there are so few rice grains in the hands of everyone, the big guys can only be grateful and not picky.

Everyone cherished the bowl and sipped it in small mouthfuls. Everyone had nothing but joy in their hearts.

The officials are so willing to use water, they have finally reached a place where there is no shortage of water!

Li Xuemei also brought the children to receive the porridge.

When the government servants saw this family, they were taken aback for a moment, and hurriedly lowered their heads to cover up.

I was speechless.

They naturally knew that this was Yan Xiucai's family, not that Yan Xiucai's family could not receive porridge, but that when they went to invite people into the city, they saw Yan's family's luggage piled up all over the floor.

Scholars value face the most, why is Yan Xiucai's family so... approachable.

Yan Yu narrowed her eyes happily.

Eating food for free is delicious!

After finishing the porridge, Yan Yu didn't leave, and kept circling around the gate of the city.

The yamen servants thought he was waiting for Yan Xiucai, but they didn't care, and let her wander around.

Yan Yu reckoned that the notice of Hu Jucheng was pasted on the wall inside the city gate.

At this time, there are people watching around, and there are some who can read, as if they are explaining the above content to the people next to them.

Yan Yu scratched his head, wondering if his uncle saw it, even if it was inconvenient to turn back when he went in, he could still see clearly when he came back.

Yan Huaiwen and Liang Manshan left the government office.

Tian county magistrate, Mr. Tian...

Not only did he tell President Xue all the information he had concealed, but he also sincerely invited the two of them to serve in the Yamen.

Liang Manshan was in a daze.

This is completely different from the government office and county magistrate in his impression.

"Master Tian, is it to amuse us?" He was puzzled.

Yan Huaiwen reminded him: "Think about Mr. Tian's permission for the two of us to be any house secretary."

"household house."

"Master Tian saw that our household registration is incomplete, and gave us the location of the household registration, which is convenient for us to register ourselves." Yan Huaiwen smiled slightly.

Liang Manshan: …

"It's okay?!" After he was awakened, he immediately opened up the seven meridians and eight apertures. "The household book of the house handles the collection of taxes and the payment of money and food... Isn't it true that we can still distribute our own rations?"

"There are still seeds." Yan Huaiwen added.

Liang Manshan was in high spirits.

"Brother Huaiwen, there is a lot to do!"

Yan Huaiwen hummed.

Compared to that Xue Zongqi's swindling and abduction, this Mr. Tian is doing a majestic conspiracy.

I know that you have problems, and you can smooth them out yourself.

Don't worry about someone cheating, the three-month ration is a full two catties.

Three years of food tax exemption, don’t worry after three years, treat everyone equally, you can take as much as others take...

And there is another advantage of working in the yamen, well-informed, familiar with all parties in the yamen, and can quickly get acquainted with and integrate into Hujucheng.

The more critical point is that they are only part-time, not a formal job, and it will not affect their future career at all.

There is no explanation for the tacit understanding between each other, but in fact, Mr. Tian is showing them that Hujucheng is willing to leave their "price".

He knew that Huju was at an absolute disadvantage compared to the prefectural cities of Yongning, Gufeng and Changping because they were border cities.

Borrow the special management system of border towns and give full play to the advantages of "one word"...

Yan Huaiwen had to admit that Mr. Tian's actions had indeed equalized his position in the heart of the tiger.

Village Chief Luo and Uncle An were very calm, and they didn't tell everyone the benefits of being registered in the mouth of Mr. Xue.

They made up their minds, waiting for Yan Er to come back, and asked Mr. Xiucai to make up his mind.

The two little old men kept looking around, anxious, but hard to say.

Under the ardent expectation of the two, Yan Lao Er and Qi Si Qi Wu returned safely after a long journey.

Just drank water, sat down and took a breath.

Yan Huaiwen and Liang Manshan are also back.

Several people are exchanging information.

"It is true that there are twelve or one people in Fucheng. The division of land that Xue Zongqi said is probably not land, but wasteland. Guanzhou has a large area and few people, and there is a lot of wasteland. No one opens up wasteland and no one cultivates it. Therefore, all cities in Guanzhou Willing to take in the victims of the disaster, the so-called division of land is to open up wasteland.

Reclaiming wasteland for three years is tax-free, and for another three years, it can be sold and traded.

Gu Feng Luo Ji needs two taels of silver, and Changping one tael.

Yongning neither gave seeds nor rations, while Gu Feng and Changping gave seeds, but rations were only given for one month.

Longxing and Fengming are the same as Huju. They don’t need money for registration, and they also give three months of food rations to the seeds. These two border towns have one more city than Huju, and they will not be subject to corvee for three years. "

Liang Manshan said: "Three years, too little."

Yan Laoer looked at him blankly.

What are you talking about? This is already very good. I heard that many victims of the disaster considered going to Longxing and Fengming because of this.

As soon as Liang Manshan mentioned the conditions for the tiger to occupy the city, the second Yan immediately decided to take back what he had just said.

Long Xing and Feng Ming are younger brothers in front of me, Da Huju.

"Brother! If you and Man Shan go to the Yamen to work as clerks, can we open up wasteland wherever we want? There is no need to separate, we are together."

Yan Huaiwen hummed.

"Then what are you thinking about? Huju! Brother, I don't know if I don't leave. I'm startled when I go. This Huju City is the biggest land boundary. I'm looking for a particularly good place. There are mountains and rivers. It's a large area. The wasteland is not too far from Yongning, but closer to Gufeng, this Guanzhou is really good, there are so many lands, such a convenient three-way land, there is no human habitation."

Qi Si couldn't hold back any longer, and interjected: "Second Brother Yan, there is a large forest in between."

"Yes!" Er Er Yan's eyebrows were beaming, and he kept spitting out: "There is still a large forest, hahaha! We are using it to build a house."

Yan Yu fell in love with it as soon as she heard it.

Many trees? Great wow!

The father and daughter looked at each other, tacit understanding.

How do you say that?

If you want to be rich, you must first pluck trees! !
