In the two days since they came back, Xu He and Sister Gu held hands and looked at each other, sweet and sweet.
But early in the morning on the third day, Ding Ze reported at the door of the backyard: "Sir, someone from the county government said that the second master asked you to come over."
When Xu He heard this, he knew that the matter involving the Huang family was about to go down, so he went to the front yard.
I saw that the visitor was Qiu Hushu from that day's house. When Qiu Hushu saw Xu He, he had long lost the aloof, arrogant and unusual demeanor he had when he was in the countryside.
He bent over and said with a sad face: "Mr. Xu, I just heard from the second master that He Liangchang is so crazy that he dares to harm you. Mr. Xu, you know that I have always been very close to you. Very, but it has nothing to do with He Liangchang!"
Xu He knew that the clerk of one of his households could get orders from Hu Xian Cheng and make a special trip here. This meant that he did not want to be resented by him for this matter, and secondly, Hu Xian Cheng told him in disguise that this Qiu household The book is his!
In fact, Qiu Hushu didn't do anything detrimental to himself. His stay with He Liangchang was purely a "routine" after every county official went to the countryside. He was not a nerd who was stupid because of reading, so he couldn't stand it. With his style, I won't hold a grudge against him.
So Xu He said with a smile: "What did Qiu Dianli say? He knows the person but not the heart. You and I don't know that He Liangchang is actually a cult demon. In this case, how can Xu He blame the Dianli?"
When Qiu Hushu heard this, he immediately smiled and led Xu He to the county government office. On the way, he also chatted with Xu He about recent events in the county.
"Xinghua and Gaoyou were the hardest hit by the disaster. People in the two counties all fled south. Even this county, which was slightly less affected by the disaster, also accepted many victims. The elder was busy until late at night every day, and even the second elder I haven’t touched the ground for the past two days!”
In this era, ordinary people did not have permanent property or food. When disaster struck, they would abandon their homes and careers and go elsewhere to escape famine.
Fortunately, the area affected by this disaster was only the Lixiahe area. If there was a major disaster, the victims in Henan and Shandong would have fled south, and the scene would have been tragic.
Sure enough, along the way, Xu He saw many fleeing people with their families on the street. These people looked haggard, probably because they had not eaten enough for many days. They were all sitting helplessly under the eaves of the merchants along the street. Their eyes were empty. Even if Xu He and the others passed by these people, their eyes seemed to have lost focus and would not blink.
Seeing this scene, Xu He frowned and said, "The county didn't find a place for these people to settle? It's not a problem to stay under the eaves of others like this, right?"
Qiu Hushu shook his head and said: "It's not that the county doesn't care about the people. The eldest master and the second master are so anxious that they are angry. Don't look at the people who have entered the city. Outside the city... they are all densely packed! You How do you arrange it?"
When I arrived at the county government office, I entered Lao Hu's custody room. Unexpectedly, no one was there. When I asked, it turned out that Lao Hu had washed his hands.
After a while, Hu Xiancheng, who was frowning and looking bad, walked in. As soon as he saw Xu He, he complained: "I have been angry these days. I have gone to the latrine four or five times in the morning. I just squatted down and fell asleep." Come back with your pants up, you won’t be able to survive this day.”
It seems that what Qiu Hushu said is true, Lao Hu is really angry.
However, Lao Hu is also considered a scholar. After complaining to Xu He, he shook his head and said: "We treat our brothers as our own and don't worry about anything like shit or shit. Brother Xu, don't blame us!"
Xu He suppressed a smile and said, "That's Brother Hu's true temperament. However, no matter how busy you are with official duties, your health is still important. Why not find a doctor and prescribe two doses of prescription to relieve inflammation?"
Lao Hu sat down on the official hat chair and sighed: "How can we have such thoughts? These days..., forget it, those are not things that bother me, but the Huang family, it will be difficult to handle this time!"
Xu He heard this and asked curiously: "How do you say that?"
Lao Hu said: "I didn't tell you this last time. I thought about it later and the best way is to scare the Huang family by colluding with monsters and plotting evil."
Xu He thought to himself that Lao Hu's operation was exactly what he thought.
"Unexpectedly, I sent someone there, but that old guy Huang Dewang actually asked someone to beat him out!"
"Hiss~~~~" Xu He took a breath of cold air.
Yes, the Huang family does have a son who was born as a Jinshi and is an official in Beijing.
But where is the county government?
The so-called county magistrate is not as good as the current one. Hu County Magistrate is the second county magistrate who is in charge of the county's household registration, food, grass, and taxes.
This is not an era of rule of law. Hu County Cheng can make the Huang family pay an unknown amount of tax for more than a year with just one sentence.
If you beat his people away, wouldn't that mean you would take off your pants and shit and pee on Lao Hu's face?
Is the Huang family crazy?
"The Huang family is not crazy!" Lao Hu said with a sad face: "I just received the news that his son Huang Youyi has just been transferred from the Ministry of Rites to the head of the Sichuan Department of the Ministry of Household Affairs!"
Xu He breathed a sigh of relief and smiled: "What does Sichuan have to do with our Nanzhi? How can Brother Hu be so worried?"
Lao Hu sighed and said: "Brother Xu, you haven't entered the officialdom yet, so you don't know the way of the Household Department. There are thirteen divisions in the Household Department, which are in charge of the affairs of the provinces, but they are also in charge of the affairs of the two capitals and Zhili. Tributes, as well as the salaries of various departments and health offices, the food and wages of border towns, and the salt courses and banknotes of various warehouses!"
Xu He stared and asked, "Don't tell me, this Sichuan Qing officials department is in charge of our Nanzhili household registration population, land taxes!"
Lao Hu slapped his thigh and said with a ferocious expression, "Exactly!"
Funny.
Lao Hu came to try to rip him off. Unexpectedly, he missed the rip off and hit his head with a stick!
Everyone in the household department knows that it deals with money and food.
But I don’t know that he has to verify the household registration every year, the total revenue and expenditure of each province and county in a year, and the actual amount of taxes and labor collected.
In other words, Lao Hu is now miserable and has offended the Huang family. In the future, in Hailing County, whether it is population, taxes, corvee, mountains, forests, lakes, pass towns, mining and smelting, as well as subsidies, exemptions, When it comes to things like loan promotion, price adjustment, and even killing pests, there must be no mistakes at all. Otherwise, at least one will not be promoted, and if too many times occur, one will be dismissed from office.
Speaking of this, Old Hu's face wrinkled like a Japanese melon: "Brother, we offended the Huang family just because of you. You can't leave your brother Hu alone!"
"..."
If it's for yourself, just listen to it, but although Lao Hu is a bit greedy, he is fine with himself.
Seeing his pitiful look, Xu He suppressed a smile and said, "How does Brother Hu want me to help you?"
When Old Hu heard this, he felt like he had received a life-saving straw: "Who doesn't know that Mr. Xu is now Mr. Xiao Shi's most promising junior? As long as you help me find Mr. Xiao Shi to ask for a letter of recommendation, Old Hu Ping will be transferred to another province. I hope Huang will come here. There’s nothing you can do with me!”
Xu He was speechless after hearing this. Not to mention that he wouldn't go to his uncle for such a thing. Even if he did, Xu Song probably wouldn't be able to ask for help for such a nonsense, not to mention that the identity of the uncle is the most sensitive now. At this time, don’t even think about it.
Just when Xu He was hesitating about how to refuse Old Hu without hurting anyone, someone outside suddenly said: "The eldest master heard that Mr. Xu came to the Yali, so he came here to invite you!"
Xu He felt like he was being pardoned. He stood up and said to Lao Hu: "Brother Hu, I'll come as soon as I go!"
Lao Hu did not dare to disobey his immediate boss, so he could only say pitifully to Xu He: "Brother, you must come soon!"
