I did evil in the feudal land, but I was called a virtuous king

It is not safe to carry cash with you back and forth, and many people choose to store their money in Ping An Bank.

The vaults of Ping An Bank had already filled the entire room, so the second vault had to be opened.

Wang Hu has not been idle recently, and Li An asked him to recruit another [-] soldiers for training. After training, these soldiers will be sent to Yuyi Pass to guard the pass. Li An will replace his own guards at that time.

The wealthy businessmen who had previously tendered for the brick kiln were also built in a small town far away from Qingshui County.

On this day, many brick kiln owners crowded into the temporary county office of Qingshui County.

"Master Tian, ​​you have to help us think of a way. We will not be able to recruit workers at all. Without workers, we will not be able to start work on time. If the time comes, we will not be able to deliver the goods. What should we do if the prince blames us?"

"You want me to find a way? Where can I find a way? The common people are willing to help the prince build a restaurant, but I still lack workers for the Qingshui county government office." Tian Qi was also very helpless.

The people's enthusiasm for Li An is too high, and they are all willing to work for Li An, not to mention that working for Li An is the best salary.

The common people said that even if Li An's construction site does not pay wages, the common people will squeeze their heads to go to work.

Just for gratitude.

"Master Tian, ​​why don't you talk to the people at your yamen's construction site and ask them to help us burn the bricks first? In another month, it's time to deliver the bricks."

Not daring to compete with Li An for workers, they had to come to Tian Qi to find a way.

"Alas~" Tian Qi sighed, he also hoped that his Qingshui county government office could be repaired sooner, so that he could live in and handle official business.

Huddled in this broken yard every day to deal with official business, what does it sound like?

But he also knew that compared to his own Qingshui county government, building the Yuyi Pass was the most important thing.

This question is very tricky.

"Couldn't you guys increase the benefits so that workers can be recruited?" Tian Qizhi made a move.

"We've tried it all, raising salaries and improving treatment. Now the treatment in our brick kiln is no worse than that of the prince, but if the common people don't come, we are helpless."

"Yes, Mr. Tian, ​​you are the parent officer of Qingshui County, you have to help us."

A large group of wealthy businessmen chattered non-stop around Tian Qi.

Tian Qi got dizzy from the quarrel, so he had no choice but to say, "Even if I call all the workers from the county government construction site to you, that's not enough."

"Master Tian, ​​why don't you ask the prince for help?"

Chapter 45

Tian Qi thought for a moment, then nodded helplessly, as if that was all there was to it.

Tian Qi tidied up quickly, and ran to the Ping An Bank in a panic.

Entering the lobby of the bank, Tian Qi found that it was busier than his temporary county office. After squeezing through the crowded crowd for a long time, Tian Qi squeezed to a guard.

"I want to see the king."

The personal guard glanced at Tian Qi, smiled and said, "Master Tian, ​​you should go find Miss Wan'er."

The personal guard pointed to a pretty girl and said.

Tian Qi glanced at the girl with doubts on his face, and then he noticed that the Ping An Bank is no longer the same as before, and it is full of Li An's five big and three thick personal guards.

There are many sweet and lovely girls in beautiful skirts in the bank.

These girls were all bank employees recruited by Ang Lee later.

Some time ago, the bank's business was a bit poor, and Li An scolded the guards on the spot.

"If you talk about you, you can't pay attention to your appearance. You have a murderous face all day long, which scares away the king's guests."

"The king announces that you are all laid off, go and recruit some beautiful young ladies to take over your jobs."

The guards who were forced to be laid off were quite depressed at first, but as time passed, they found that Li An's idea was really brilliant.

In the past, they could only look at the faces of the familiar stinky old men all day long, and they almost vomited.

Now I can see beautiful girls busy every day, and my energy has improved a lot, and I am more motivated to do things.

Pleasant beauties are food for the soul, the prince's move is wonderful!

Tian Qi looked at the guard's wretched smile and disgust, and immediately walked towards the girl quickly: "Miss Wan'er, right? I want to see the prince."

Wan'er looked back at Tian Qi with a smile, and first bowed: "Do you have an appointment?"

"Appointment?" Tian Qi's eyes widened: "What is that?"

"You can't see my prince without an appointment, please make an appointment first." Wan'er pointed to a counter, and there was a signboard at the door of the counter: "Reservation office."

Tian Qi subconsciously walked towards the appointment place, but he felt something was wrong just after walking a few steps. He looked back at Wan'er and pointed his finger at his nose: "I, Tian Qi, the county magistrate of Qingshui County."

Wan'er nodded, then continued to smile and said, "I know you are Mrs. Tian, ​​but the prince said that our Ping An bank should be commercialized and professionalized. Unless the sage comes, otherwise, we need to make an appointment to see the prince. oh."

After hearing a bunch of nonsense words that he couldn't understand at all, Tian Qi only felt that one head and two big.

He said again: "I don't have time to make trouble with you, please call the prince for me, I have something important to discuss."

Wan'er put away her smile, and nodded solemnly: "Master Tian, ​​please wait a moment, I will report to Secretary Liu."

"Go quickly." Tian Qi urged.

After Wan'er left, another beautiful girl came over with a cup of tea, "Master Tian, ​​please sit down and drink tea first."

Tian Qi found a place to sit down, and at this time a girl was holding a fan and fanning Tian Qi beside him.

The weather is already hot, and there are many people in the bank, and it is like a steamer. It is not to mention how comfortable someone is fanning the field.

Tian Qi squinted his eyes, and said with emotion in his heart, "My lord, the Ping An Bank's service is quite good, and it makes me want to save some money. I feel that I don't deserve such a good service without saving some money."

"No, what am I thinking?" Tian Qi shook his head to withdraw his thoughts, but soon lost his mind: "Who is Secretary Liu? I haven't come for a while, why are all the faces?"

After a while, Liu Yiyi, led by Wan'er, came to Tian Qi.

"Master Tian, ​​you talk to Secretary Liu, I will step back first." Wan'er said softly.

Tian Qiteng stood up from the chair at once, looked at Liu Yiyi in surprise: "Miss Liu, how did you become Secretary Liu?"

"I've always been the prince's secretary? Recently, the prince said that he wants to be commercialized and professionalized, so everyone calls me Secretary Liu." Liu Yiyi replied solemnly.

"What does a secretary do? What are specialization and enterprise?" Tian Qi was like a curious baby.

"I don't know either." Liu Yiyi shook her head, and immediately got to the point: "Master Tian has something important to discuss with the prince?"

"Pa~" Tian Qi slapped his forehead, "Look at my memory, Miss Liu... Secretary Liu, please take me to see the prince."

Liu Yiyi smiled, and walked ahead to lead the way: "If Mr. Tian is not used to being called, just call me Miss Liu."

In the private room on the top floor of the Ping An Bank, Li An was lying barebacked on the golden nanmu massage chair he asked a carpenter to make specially.

When Tian Qi saw this scene, he immediately covered his eyes and turned around: "My lord, what are you doing?"

Prostitution in the daytime?

"Yiyi is helping me with a massage, Lao Tian, ​​if you didn't come to me in a real emergency, you would die a miserable death. I don't like being disturbed when enjoying life." Li An said coldly.

Tian Qi straightened up immediately. The brick kiln's failure to recruit workers should be considered an important matter, right?But if you think about it carefully, it seems that it is not so important...

While Tian Qi was still secretly weighing whether this was an important matter, Liu Yiyi had already returned to Li An's side.

Stretched out white palms to massage Li An's back: "My lord, how strong is it?"

"Cool~" Li An said comfortably, "Yiyi, from now on, you will be the ace technician dedicated to me."

With a helpless face, Liu Yiyi complained: "My lord has given me a lot of titles recently, such as ace singer, ace dance queen, ace tea ceremony master, etc. There are so many that I can't remember them all."

"Don't worry about the details, you just need to know that now that the king is gone, you will be useless, and you won't be able to survive." Li An said casually.

Now he was already enjoying life, if Liu Yiyi didn't sing and dance rap for him, and give him a beauty oil massage, then what's the point of life, wouldn't it be impossible to live?

When Liu Yiyi heard this, a pleasant smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

Tian Qi was stunned for a moment, Miss Liu really became more and more beautiful, more and more charming.

I still remember that when the prince brought Miss Liu back to the county government office, she was still a skinny little girl with messy hair and dirty body.

It's really a girl's [-]th change.

"Old Tian, ​​are you a pervert, staring at this king's naked back in a daze?" Li An looked at Tian Qi with disgust, and instantly his back was covered with goosebumps.

Tian Qi's face darkened in an instant, speechless, who wants to see you as a big man, I'm Miss Liu, I'm feeling that the girl has grown up!

"Tell me something, you're here, I'm scratching all over my body, I don't even feel comfortable getting a massage." Li An's voice was full of disgust.

Tian Qi hurriedly saluted, and immediately said: "My lord, all the brick kilns in Zhujia Town have been completed, but the brick kilns can't recruit workers. The bosses asked me to ask the lord for advice."

"Why can't people be recruited? The wages and benefits they give are not in place?"

"The wages and benefits of the brick kiln are all given according to the prince's recruitment standards."

"That means your character is not good." Li An directly concluded.

Tian Qi wanted to refute, but it seemed that what Li An said was right, a good character like Wang Ye would be willing to work for him even if he didn't pay him.

"Alas~" Tian Qi sighed, and slowly said: "Now it's the busy season of farming, most of the people have gone back to farming, and the workers who repaired the restaurant for you, my lord, are all taking time out of their busy schedules to go to work.

Recently, Qingshui County is really short of labor force. "

Chapter 46

"There's nothing you can do about it?" Li An's disgusted voice came.

Tian Qi lowered his head in shame.

Li An was full of disgust, he was too lazy to give Tian Qi any advice, and looked at Li Yiyi: "Yiyi, tell him what to do."

Liu Yiyi nodded, and immediately looked at Tian Qi.

"Lord Tian, ​​it's the dry season now, and the water conservancy projects in the counties further down from Qingshui County have not yet been completed, and the common people should not be able to farm. There should be a lot of idle people in the counties below right now?"

"The situation in the following counties is indeed similar to what Miss Liu said. Their relief food was sent by our Qingshui county government."

Tian Qi nodded.

"Since Qingshui County can't recruit workers, why not go to other counties?" Liu Yiyi smiled.

Tian Qi was awakened instantly, and suddenly realized: "Yes, why didn't I think of recruiting workers in other counties?"

An official governs one party, and Tian Qi can only govern tens of thousands of people in Qingshui County. He cannot interfere in the government affairs of other counties, so Tian Qi didn't think about it at all before.

"It's just that the distance between the two places is very long. I'm afraid the common people will spend most of their time and energy on the road every day." Tian Qi frowned.

Liu Yiyi smiled: "The population of Qingshui County is declining now, and there are many vacant houses. The people who come to work can be housed in these vacant houses, so as to save the time of returning home."

Tian Qi nodded seriously, then frowned and said, "But, can the magistrates of other counties allow us to recruit a large number of workers?"

If you only recruit tens of hundreds of workers, others may not say anything, but if you recruit tens of thousands of workers at one time, others will definitely have opinions.

After all, everyone relies on population to revive the economy, and everyone is afraid of population loss.

"We assign jobs and residences to their people, which can be regarded as helping them with disaster relief and resettlement of the people. They can just have fun secretly. How dare they have any opinions??" Li An's dissatisfied voice came.

"Whoever dares to disagree, you can directly report the name of this king. If you don't give face, this king will also tie his county magistrate to burn bricks!"

Hearing Li An's domineering words, Tian Qi shrank his neck. With the prince's character, it seemed that he could really do such a thing...

"I said Lao Tian, ​​Qingshui County is a little richer now. But you can't just think about your own development. You can go to other counties if you have nothing to do. You have to teach and promote the younger brothers.

The other counties have to become rich as well, and the people have money, so that the king can get more wool. "

"Yes, yes." Tian Qi nodded hastily, "I'll do it right now, sir."

After walking a few steps, Tian Qi thought of something and turned back: "My lord, should I stop sending relief food to other counties?"

"Huh?" Li An looked at Tian Qi with black lines all over his face. I asked you to take care of the little brother below me a second ago. Is that how you take care of him?

Seeing Li An's strange expression, Tian Qi quickly explained: "My lord, don't get me wrong, I'm afraid that the people in other counties will be the same as the people in Qingshui County before.

With the disaster relief food, they just want to relax and work hard, thinking about letting the government support them, what should they do if they don't come to work. "

"No." Li An directly denied it.

"The situation in Qingshui County was quite special before. Although I stopped the food relief, I was able to resettle the people and didn't make them really hungry, so there will be no trouble."

"There are many counties below Qingshui County, adding up to tens of thousands of people. If you run out of food, they will all come to our place. We can't accommodate so many people here."

"If there is another riot, it will not be worth the loss."

"It shouldn't happen, right?" Tian Qi didn't think it would be so serious.
