Five years of county magistrate, 100 million catties of grain shocked Li Shimin

It is the official department that really decides the appointment and dismissal of personnel.

Zha Sudan is useless, and there is no need to waste manpower and material resources.

Anyway, I don't have a suitable candidate, so I just accept it according to the wishes of the Ministry of Officials.

If you are not obedient, then the appointment and dismissal of the officials is actually a joke, and now I can get rid of the other party at any time.

"Yes."

Zhang San should leave.

In the afternoon, Su Chen, the magistrate of Liaoshan County, arrived first.

"My subordinate, Su Chen, pay my respects to Lord Inspector!"

Su Chen put the things on the ground and saluted respectfully.

The first time they met, Fang Yuan secretly sighed that Su Chen had such a good skin.

Gentle and elegant, with a face like a crown of jade, in future generations, many rich women will surely grab her.

No wonder Su Quan's daughter was able to marry Prince Li Chengqian. From here we can see the general idea.

"Excuse me, please wait in the conference room."

Fang Yuan said indifferently.

He had to go in so early before all the people came.

"Lord Inspector, I absolutely have no intention of surpassing Lord Inspector to become the county magistrate of Liaoshan."

"It's just that my words are mild, my uncle and my father don't want to listen to my opinion, please forgive me, Lord Inspector!"

Su Chen took two small steps forward, and put the present on Fang Yuan's desk with a flattering smile.

"You're welcome, I don't accept gifts."

Fang Yuan shook his head, looked at Su Chen with a little surprise and said.

If this person is not honest, he knows how to deal with people.

Give yourself a gift as soon as you appear on the stage, and express what you don't mean.

Generally speaking, even if the superior is still dissatisfied with this matter, he will not wear small shoes for him.

"Yes, the subordinate understands."

Su Chen quickly took back the gift.

Then saluted Fang Yuan, walked into the office of Zhang San and the others.

Fang Yuan nodded subconsciously, feeling that Su Chen's child could be taught, and his impression points improved a lot.

Soon, Su Chen came out again, the gift in his hand was no longer there, he saluted with Fang Yuan again and entered the conference room.

Not long after, Zhou Kaile and Sun Taihe arrived.

"The next official pays homage to Lord Inspector."

The two saluted respectfully.

The new year has passed, and the two have not changed much.

"Let's go to the meeting room."

Fang Yuan nodded slightly.

At the same time, people asked Zhang San and Qi Cao to join the army.

Soon, everyone sat around the conference room for a meeting.

"Except for Qicao joining the army, including this official, they are all newcomers in Liaozhou."

"As the saying goes, a new year brings new weather. This official hopes that there will be new changes in Liaozhou in the three years of Zhenguan."

Fang Yuan said slowly.

After the opening remarks, Zhang San and others applauded one after another.

Su Chen and the others didn't know why, but followed Zhang San and the others and applauded.

This is Fang Yuan's new change in the meeting, keep warm applause.

The previous meetings were all in one word, they listened to and memorized what Fang Yuan said, and almost didn't speak.

This made the meeting very silent and depressing, not what Fang Yuan wanted, so he added applause.

"This meeting will have the following points:"

"The first point: the first batch of goods from the major factories in Liaozhou is about to be completed, and the counties are at least responsible for transporting them to the state and county towns for sale."

"What this official means is that there must be a concrete road leading to the state city between the counties, and there must be a concrete road between the counties leading to each other."

Fang Yuan said slowly.

Before the words fell, Zhou Kaile and the others showed embarrassment.

"I know it's not easy, and it also involves money for road construction."

"But it is difficult to be challenging, and the construction of cement roads can promote exchanges between counties, and the sale of goods can improve local finances. These are your achievements."

Fang Yuan said slowly.

Inform the benefits as well.

"Lord Inspector, I am very willing to build a concrete road."

"But Pingcheng County is too far away from Liaozhou City, and Pingcheng County's finances cannot support it."

Sun Taihe said with a distressed face.

He was in charge of the family porcelain business and knew how important good roads are to the porcelain business.

But the construction of cement roads is expensive, and the family cannot provide free funding, and the county government does not have so much money, so it can only be done out of will.

Zhou Kaile on the side nodded in agreement, also because he had no money, otherwise he must be the first county among the three counties in Liaozhou to build a cement road.

"This official thought of this, so I came forward to negotiate with the cement manufacturers. The counties will pay in the name of the county government. The money will be paid in small batches. How many batches will be divided will be discussed at that time. What do you think?"

Fang Yuan thought of this.

Even thought of borrowing money to build roads.

But unfortunately, Qianzhuang has not yet appeared.

But this method is not much different from borrowing money to build roads.

"If that's the case, I'm willing to do my best to build the road."

Sun Taihe pondered for a moment, and said in a deep voice.

His family used to do business in Pingcheng County, and knew the difficulty of expanding business abroad.

But if the cement road appears, from now on Liaozhou city and three counties can be sold, the market scope will be greatly improved, local tax revenue will be greatly increased, and other caravans can be introduced, etc.

For a businessman, Sun Taihe felt that roads were very necessary.

And in the name of the county government, not in the name of an individual, the money owed is also owed by the county government, not by oneself, so there is no problem at all.

"The lower officials are also willing to do their best to build roads!"

Zhou Kai said respectfully.

He was the first to propose road construction.

Now that there are ways to support road construction, it is his duty to do so.

Fang Yuan nodded in satisfaction, and finally looked at Su Chen, the magistrate of Liaoshan County.

"Lord Inspector, Liaoshan County is building roads."

Su Chen was puzzled.

He had actually arrived in Liaoshan County a few days earlier.

In order to be able to understand the work in hand as much as possible, and also know that the cement road is being built.

"The previous county magistrate only gave a [-]% deposit, and there is only one road leading to Liaozhou City."

Fang Yuan reminded.

"Lord Inspector, don't worry, the remaining [-]% of the county government will definitely make up for it, and we are willing to do our best to build roads."

When Su Chen heard this, he immediately patted his chest and promised.

"Everyone, don't worry, road construction is difficult in the early stage, but it will be a proper political achievement in the later stage."

"When the time is right, I will promote the talent introduction plan, so that more people will flow into one city and three counties in Liaozhou."

"Everyone, work hard. After three years, if the political achievements are still not harvested, I will report to the Ministry of Officials that you will stay in office and you will be transferred after receiving the fruits for one or two years!"

Fang Yuan said in a deep voice.

Draw cakes for Zhou Kaile and others.

"Lord Inspector is wise!"

Zhou Kaile and the others were taken aback for a moment, and then excitedly flattered them.

Being an official is for political achievements, and if they can get political achievements, they can fight with their lives.

"Let's leave it at that for the first point. If you have any questions, you can ask Chang Shi Zhang San."

"Next, let's talk about the second point. What do the three of you think about the fact that the imperial court wants to popularize the imperial examinations? You can speak freely."

Fang Yuan entered the second discussion session.

He wanted to hear the thoughts of these county magistrates.

In this way, we can roughly know the difficulty of implementing the imperial examination.

"Lord Inspector, the lower officials think that we should do our best to popularize the imperial examination, let as many people as possible know about the imperial court's implementation of the imperial examination, and let the common people clearly realize that the imperial court attaches great importance to the imperial examination."

Zhou Kaile was the first to express his opinion.

He thinks he has the worst background, and he also understands that it is not easy to stand up from a poor background.

Although the imperial examination was not set up for ordinary people, it gave opportunities to those without family support.

Fang Yuan nodded slightly, without expressing his opinion, his eyes turned to Su Chen and Sun Taihe.

"Lord Inspector, the lower officials think that it's enough to show off."

"Now we have to build roads and be responsible for the transportation and sale of goods from various factories, and the spring plowing will come soon. We don't have the time and manpower to promote it."

Sun Taihe pondered for a moment, and said seriously.

Since Fang Yuan said that he can speak freely, he can say anything.

If you don't express your opinion at this time, you may be targeted if you mess around after it is confirmed.

Although Sun Taihe was an official for the first time, his previous business experience also gave him a lot of useful experience.

Fang Yuan also nodded slightly, but did not express his opinion, and finally looked at Su Chen.

"Lord Inspector, I think the magistrate Sun's words are very true."

"And there is another point. If we implement the imperial examination, there may be dissatisfaction among many aristocratic families who will stop it."

Su Chen said embarrassingly.

Speaking of the family, he was worried that Fang Yuan would be dissatisfied.

After all, from what he learned, the family looked down on Fang Yuan.

"Yes, your ideas are well-founded."

"However, this official believes that it is imperative to popularize the imperial examination, and it must be carried out in the countryside according to the intention of the imperial court, so that every commoner knows as much as possible."

Fang Yuan said slowly.

A final decision has been made.

"Follow the order of the governor!"

The three of them looked at each other and saluted with different expressions.

"If you have any opinions on the popular science examination, you can say it now."
