Farmer’s Blessed Girl

Zhou Lijun pondered the income for a moment, then raised his eyebrows and said, "Okay, fifth uncle, you made more than 10,000 dollars in one day."

Old Zhou, who was standing at the door, opened his mouth slightly and was speechless for a long time.

At this moment, he finally didn't say that Friday Lang didn't cook at home.

After thinking about it for a while, he looked at the pile of money on the ground and asked, "How much do you have to give to Gongzhong?"

Before Friday Lang could speak, Zhou Lijun dialed the abacus again, and then said, "Twenty-nine thousand five hundred and forty-nine pennies."

The old Zhoutou immediately said: "Okay, count them out and take them back for me."

Friday:  …

He still hasn't warmed up these copper coins.

He hurriedly asked Zhou Lijun, "How much do I have left?"

Zhou Lijun said: "Forty-four thousand three hundred and twenty-three."

That's quite a lot, Lang Le squinted on Friday, and then greeted Zhou Lizhong to help count the money.

The old man was still standing by and staring.

Qian asked, "How did you make so much money? You shouldn't have cheated the second young master, right?"

Qian Shi and Lao Zhoutou were both used to calling him the second young master.

Wu Wulang immediately said: "I didn't cheat him. I have already asked about it. It's such a long journey. If there are good people donating the road, it will probably cost around 250,000 yuan. I need less."

So at first he was not sure whether it was a profit or a loss.

But he has thought about it, it's good to make money, and it's nothing to lose. Anyway, Bai Erlang is also his own family. Most of this road was built for Man Bao and Bai Er's family.

Zhou Dalang was stunned, "Why is there so much difference?"

Fifty thousand is a lot.

There are only two situations for road construction at present. One is the county government expropriation officer who repairs the road. In fact, most of them are like this;

There is another kind of good people donating roads and building roads and bridges with their own money. This is a great merit. It is a great merit that is more remembered than donating sesame oil money to temples and doing deeds in Taoist temples.

It is usually the local squire who will do this.

For example, like Master Bai, building a road can be recited for twenty years, and if the road is well built, it can be recited for a hundred years.

Friday Lang said: "Good people donate roads and have to say hello to the county government, and sometimes even the subordinate officials go to supervise, and the cost of going back and forth will be huge."

It was also because he knew about these tricks that Friday Langcai cut off 50,000 from the 250,000 miles he heard about, because he didn't need to go and say hello to the county government.

Not to mention that there is Princess Mingda's signboard, even if the name of his sister Zhou Man is used, the county government generally will not embarrass him.

So he gave no money.

Old Zhoutou thought about it for a while, and felt very regretful, "It's a pity that the work of building roads is not easy to handle. Generally, the county government directly conscripts Ding to do it, otherwise they will hire people to build roads like the princess, then you don't know how much money you can make. Woolen cloth."

Friday Lang also felt regretful, this was equivalent to a one-shot deal.

But it doesn't matter. Man Bao said that there are many things missing right now, but the most important thing is people. As long as there are people in hand, it is very easy to make money. He will win over those people first, and it will be easier to make money later.

Everyone gave Lao Zhoutou the money to move into his house, and then began to think about what to eat at night.

It happened that Man Bao and the others came back from the ya, and when they heard it, they said, "Let's eat together. There is food in the kitchen. Let Auntie Rong and the others cook it quickly."

When Master Bai saw it, he didn't want to eat it at home, so he brought the food over to eat together, and everyone talked while eating.

Mr. Zhuang asked Bai Dalang, "Is there any concern about the election of officials?"

Everyone looked at Bai Dalang together.

Bai Dalang said: "When I went again today, I happened to see a vacancy in Tongbai County, Tangzhou. I have already applied, but there are a lot of people waiting for the vacancy. I heard a clerk in the personnel department say that the people waiting for this vacancy include me. There are six in total."

That's a lot.

There are actually quite a few shortages this year, but there are not many shortages in Beijing, most of them are local shortages, and there are also shortages in the military.

In fact, whether it is Jinshi or Mingjing, you can apply for the lack of three directions.

At present, there is no light text or light force, so many people in the army are both civil and military. Among the seniors of the old generation, there are a lot of people and martial arts. The founding of the country is fashionable and can guarantee such quality, not to mention the present.

In fact, reading and literacy will lead to a faster promotion in the military. If you are from the Mingjing or Jinshi, you will be more favored. After all, you have read the military book anyway, so you are better than a rough person who relies solely on exploration and talent, right?

It is a pity that Bai Dalang has no military talent, so even if there are many positions in the army who stay in Beijing, he did not want to apply for it.

After finding out that he couldn't apply for the position in Beijing several times, he vaguely guessed something, so he began to look outside.

After dinner, they moved to another place to continue discussing the matter.

Bai Shandao: "Tangzhou is not far from the capital, and it is located in the Central Plains. The location is good. I don't know what the actual situation in Tongbai County is. Why is this shortage vacant?"

"I heard that the county magistrate passed away, or it was an emergency, so I reported it. I just arrived in the capital two days ago, so it's a new vacancy."

It was also that he went to the Ministry of Personnel every day during this period, and because of the relationship between Bai Erlang Bai Shan and Zhou Man, the officials of the Ministry of Personnel took good care of him, so he was notified as soon as there was a vacancy, and he immediately wrote an application form.

But there are many people who have the same relationship with him, so there are also people who have applied for this position with his front and back.

Mr. Zhuang said: "Tongbai is the source of the Huaihe River. As far as I know, there is a dense network of water there, and there are two types of terrain, the west is the plain and the east is the hills, but they are not high. It is a good place."

When a county official, the most important thing to look at is the terrain, and the land has water, then the economy will be easy to develop, and the population will be easy to grow. If you have these two, you can focus on education.

The performance of an official depends on the proportion of tax revenue, population growth and education.

What is the proportion of education?

Look at the number of Zhongming Jing and Jinshi, and look at the number of people being educated in the county.

As soon as Master Bai heard it was a good place, he immediately said to Bai Dalang, "You run around more in the personnel department, and you must run away from this vacancy."

He worriedly said: "It's been half a month since the official examination, and the good ones are about to be picked out. If you don't decide, the rest will be poor and remote."

Bai Shan also nodded, "Brother in the lobby, let's settle this shortage."

Bai Dalang smiled bitterly, "I'm not alone in deciding this."

Master Bai turned to look at Mr. Zhuang and the others. He wanted to find Erlang, but he thought that the concubine should not interfere too much in these government affairs, and Erlang was also on the waiting list this year.

Mr. Zhuang and others naturally thought of this, he said: "This matter can't be done in vain, let's not say whether he can do it well, it's okay, as the concubine, if he intervenes in the election of officials like this, Your Majesty will ignore it. If you don't have an attack, you won't be very happy."

Mr. Zhuang looked at Man Bao.

Man Bao nodded and said, "I will meet Li Shangshu tomorrow and talk to him."

After the Lantern Festival, I will start adding more updates, see you tomorrow
