Now that he is back, Wen Xiuyi has to go back to the Yamen to report. Mu Li has also changed from following Wen Jun to following Wen Xiuyi, acting as a coachman and bodyguard.

When County Magistrate Chen saw that he was back, the first thing he did was to tell him that Meng De and Liu had left. Before leaving, Magistrate Chen refused to see him again.

Wen Xiuyi also teased him: "Why don't you see me? After all, he has a high official position."

County Magistrate Chen glanced at Mu Li standing at the door and cursed in his heart that the official office was useless.

"Okay, stop making fun of me. It was lard that fooled me before, so I thought of trying to please him, ugh." County Magistrate Chen felt regretful, but hey, it wasn't without any benefit, at least he got it. The melon is gone, but it’s still a big melon.

Thinking of this, County Magistrate Chen moved his butt, got closer to Wen Xiuyi, and asked in a low voice: "Aren't you afraid of meeting him again in the capital in the future?" How embarrassing.

Wen Xiuyi didn't care at all: "It doesn't matter, as long as he doesn't come to trouble me, then everyone will go back to their own way."

"I don't think that man surnamed Meng is a generous person." County Magistrate Chen told the truth.

Wen Xiuyi was even more indifferent: "Then the soldiers will come to block the water and cover up the soil. You have nothing to do. Go out and walk around when you have nothing to do."

Upon hearing this, County Magistrate Chen pointed to a pile of official documents on the desk: "I'm not busy. Did you see that? Those are letters and official documents written by several surrounding county magistrates."

"Well?"

County Magistrate Chen walked over, took it, and put it on the table: "I want to share some of the benefits." Who wouldn't want the political achievements delivered to their door? They were jealous that such a big piece of cake fell on Yunwu Town.

Wen Xiuyi didn't show any courtesy to County Magistrate Chen, he just opened it and read it.

County Magistrate Chen curled his lips when he saw this move and muttered: "You really don't regard yourself as an outsider. Do you just read this official document casually?"

"If you don't show me what you're doing with it," Wen Xiuyi didn't even look up.

County Magistrate Chen: "..." He really talks too much.

Wen Xiuyi read these letters. Some of them were from people who wanted to borrow seeds in a roundabout way. Some of them wanted to invite Magistrate Chen and Wen Xiuyi to their county as guests. They said they were guests, but they were actually going to do something. Everyone knew it. bright.

"I've seen it all. I know all of these people. Let me analyze it for you." After Magistrate Chen finished speaking, he sat down, poured tea for himself and Wen Xiuyi again, and then took the official documents one by one. Let Wen Xiuyi analyze these people, which ones are good officials, which ones are just showing off, and which ones are bad officials in their hearts, let Wen Xiuyi tell them all.

The two chatted about this matter for more than an hour, and Magistrate Chen's mouth went dry at the end.

"The things are in our hands now, and we have the final say whether to give them to them or not. To put it bluntly, some of them really think about the people below. If their own interests are not involved, they will not be arrogant. Come and tell us this." County Magistrate Chen concluded.

Wen Xiuyi frowned slightly: "Yes, it's all for the common people to have enough to eat."

County Magistrate Chen took a sip of tea, looked at him and said: "Don't be a good person. You know, His Majesty is watching over us now. We must first ensure our own production. Don't forget, His Majesty only gave We have two years to prepare enough seeds for promotion in two years."

Wen Xiuyi certainly knows that promotion in two years is important. As the saying goes, one bite cannot make a big fat man. Even if they plant these three things on every piece of land in Yunwu Town in the past two years, it will not be enough for the entire Annan Kingdom in two years. This kind of thing is divided into high and low points, and it comes step by step, one year, two years, three years, or even longer.

"Borrow it, no matter what they want, after all, the common people will benefit. Why do we want to do so much? Even if His Majesty assigns us a task, then His Majesty's original intention is not for the common people to have enough food, clothing and clothing to live a good life." Wen Xiu Yi sighed and added: "However, I don't want to put the cart before the horse. Although these three things can serve as food, they are not a long-term solution. In the final analysis, we still have to focus on the main food."

Rice, that’s the top priority.

That's it for this year. Wen Xiuyi has already made plans. From next year, his focus will be on rice. As for now, with Mr. Chen here, Wen Xiuyi believes that he can do a good job.

"Next year I plan to focus on cultivating rice. I will leave these matters to you. You can take care of it yourself." Wen Xiuyi said directly.

County Magistrate Chen was stunned: "You..."

But in the end County Magistrate Chen didn't say anything, he just said: "Whatever you need me to do, just ask." All he could do was help Wen Xiu make things easier.

During this period, whenever he walked on the country roads, people would always stop to salute him respectfully and express their gratitude to him, which he had not experienced before when he was the county magistrate.

At that time, everyone's respect and respect for him always showed an indescribable feeling, fear?

But now, he can feel everyone's sincerity.

It turns out that doing practical things for the people will really bring rewards. This kind of reward seems to make people feel more happy than those yellow and white things. Of course, he still likes the yellow and white things.

Wen Xiuyi glanced at him, thought for a moment, and asked, "Can you get the rice production from various places?"

County Magistrate Chen's heart skipped a beat, and he was quiet for a long time and asked, "What do you mean by various regions?"

"All over the country."

County Magistrate Chen stood up and turned around and walked towards the desk: "Walk slowly without seeing you off."

Wen Xiuyi hurriedly followed, with a dogged look on his face: "Oh, Lao Chen, we are all on our own."

"Anyone who follows one of your own, get out of here." Magistrate Chen chased them away mercilessly.

Wen Xiuyi shamelessly pushed him away and sat directly on the chair behind the desk, looking at Magistrate Chen eagerly.

County Magistrate Chen lost his temper after being stared at by him, and said directly: "The Department of Agriculture has records, and each place reports its output every year. If you ask me to do it for you, you might as well ask King Fu to help you."

Wen Xiuyi said directly: "Can you guarantee that the data reported are true?"

County Magistrate Chen's expression changed as he rushed to cover his mouth. At the same time, he carefully and secretly glanced at Mu Li outside the door. He gritted his teeth and said, "Don't kill me for how dare you say such nonsense."

Although everyone knows this kind of thing, no one dares to say it. After all, many places lie for their own political achievements. Therefore, the Department of Agriculture does have data, but how accurate the data is must not be And know it.

This is also why County Magistrate Chen expelled people directly, because he knew very well that Wen Xiuyi wanted real data, not false data reported to the Agriculture Department.

This is not a good job, and he may have to pay for it.

"Brother, I am just a small county magistrate. I have a big family to support behind me." County Magistrate Chen said, for this kind of thing, if the data he found out did not match the data reported to the court, it meant What?It means that he will offend those who lied about the data. How many lives does he have to dare to play like this?
