Yang Wuhui naturally needs to stay in Qingshen County for another day.

Of course, maybe more than one day.

If the case cannot be solved, it doesn't matter if he stays for a few more days. Anyway, for Yang Wuhui, he has no plans to go to Xichong County to take office immediately.

He is not a fool. If he goes directly to Xichong like this, he might follow in the footsteps of the previous county magistrate.

As for the specific situation of Xichong, he didn't know it at all. It was better to plan ahead, maybe there would be unexpected gains.

Yang Wuhui had nothing to do that day, so he asked Gu Jieqing and Zhan Yirong to go shopping in Qingshen County.

Gu Jieqing was not interested in shopping at all, but Zhan Yirong was her first time visiting the southwest border, so she was still very interested.

The two of them said something to the yamen servant left by the county government and went shopping.

Qingshen County is really small, no wonder it is so poor.

Of course, if you want to say that the county magistrate is incompetent, that’s not entirely true.

The main reason is that Qingshen County has nothing to offer, which makes this place extremely poor.

If a county wants to develop, in addition to building bridges and roads, it also needs to have local specialties that can be sold abroad, or the local agriculture must be particularly developed.

Qingshen County occupies nothing, so even if the local county magistrate wants to develop, it will end in vain.

Gradually, the higher authorities did not pay much attention to Qingshen County, which led to the development of Qingshen County becoming increasingly unable to keep up.

Fortunately, people can be self-sufficient, and as long as taxes are not excessive, they can live a good life.

Zhan Yirong and Yang Wuhui walked around for a long time, and she felt a little tired, but she saw Yang Wuhui looking around leisurely in front, which made Zhang Yirong a little dissatisfied.

"No, what are you looking for?"

Yang Wuhui smiled, looked at Zhan Yirong and said, "Aren't you tired, so I thought of finding a teahouse and let's take a rest!"

Zhan Yirong pointed not far away and said, "Isn't there one there?"

Yang Wuhui looked in the direction she pointed, and there was indeed a teahouse. It was just that this teahouse was relatively simple, but for the people of Qingshen County, it was already very good.

There is such a place where it is nice to gather in groups and drink tea leisurely.

Yang Wuhui and Zhan Yirong entered the teahouse and asked for a pot of local mountain tea.

The taste is very light and bitter.

Zhan Yirong frowned, but it didn't matter to Yang Wuhui, he wasn't here to drink tea in the first place.

At the next table, someone soon started talking about interesting things.

"I heard that the county government brought back a female body yesterday!"

"It's like this. The third uncle of my aunt's son's classmate is the county government's widower. According to him, this female corpse is from Gejia Village."

"Then there hasn't been a murder here for a long time, which is strange news!"

Yang Wuhui interrupted at the right time: "Boy, do murders rarely happen in Qingshen County?"

The older man glanced at Yang Wuhui and asked, "Are you a foreigner?"

Yang Wuhui nodded and replied: "He is indeed an outsider, passing by here, let's take a rest!"

The man seemed to understand something and said: "Qingshen County is a big place. If something happens, we will definitely know it immediately. The last murder case was several years ago, so yesterday I heard someone talking about us There was a murder in Qingshen County. If you ask me this question today and understand it, you will basically know it."

Yang Wuhui understood that there are advantages to having a small relationship.

The man looked at Yang Wuhui and asked, "You two are passing by our Qingshen County, where are you going?"

Yang Wuhui smiled and came.

He immediately replied: "We are planning to go to Xichong!"

The man was stunned, and it took him a long time to say anything.

"Going to Xichong? I think your Excellency is polite and scholarly. It's best not to go to Xichong."

Yang Wuhui left his seat and sat over.

Then he shouted to the waiter: "Waiter, please give me two snacks!"

The waiter quickly brought two plates of peanuts, one plate of raw peanuts and one plate of fried peanuts with sugar on top.

Yang Wuhui was a little weird, but didn't say anything.

Maybe this is the dim sum in their Qingshen County, which is different from the dim sum I mentioned.

Seeing that Yang Wuhui was so generous, the two of them also became friendly with Yang Wuhui.

Yang Wuhui said: "Brothers, I don't know why I can't go to Xichong. I heard that Xichong is very famous in the southwest, and it is said that Xichong also has creatures like the legendary dragon. That's why I Those who go will not be able to gain a good experience."

The younger one sneered and said: "Dragon, I think it's a snot dragon! Let me advise you, it's best not to go to Xichong. Let's not talk about the local area. Let's just say that on the way to Xichong, there are dozens of horses. Bandit, what is the name of this leader..."

The older man reminded: "Squint-eyed General!"

"Yes, that's right, General Squint Eyes. This General Squint Eyes led dozens of horse bandits to commit mischief in Xichong. He would rob anyone passing by, whether it was the imperial court or ordinary people's motorcades. It was almost lawless!"

Yang Wuhui said strangely: "Then Xichong County Government doesn't care?"

The older man sneered and said: "Guan, how can you control people like Xichong County Government! If they really dare to come, wouldn't they be delivering food! After all, those horse bandits are not capable of killing people." In the blink of an eye, those knife-wielding men from Xichong County Government can still eat!"

As soon as this was said, everyone in the teahouse laughed.

Someone even echoed it, which makes sense.

Yang Wuhui was dumbfounded: "Then the state government doesn't care?"

The younger one replied: "The state government has taken care of it, but what's the situation here? The mountains are high and the forests are dense. It's not easy to catch these horse bandits."

Yang Wuhui sighed: "The people are suffering!"

The younger man shook his head and said, "The people are okay. After all, they are blessed by their so-called river god. After all, the squinty-eyed general also believes in the river god."

Yang Wuhui was confused: "You two, didn't you say there are no dragons in Xichong? Why did a river god appear again!"

The younger one continued: "The river god is a river god, and the dragon is a dragon. The river god is a river in Xichong County. There is a river god in Hanoi. It is said that he has appeared for more than 20 years. The appearance of this river god has blessed the West. The weather has been good for the past twenty years. Therefore, the people of Xichong trust this river god very much!"

Yang Wuhui asked again: "Is this river god real?"

"I don't know about this, but it must be true! At least in the past twenty years, Xichong County has been in good weather. But, haha!"

Yang Wuhui asked, "What's wrong?"

The young man threw a peanut into his mouth and said, "But this river god is extremely lustful. Every year, he asks Xichong County to offer him a big girl with yellow flowers and other sacrificial objects before he agrees." I wish Xichong County good weather in the coming year."

As soon as these words came out, Yang Wuhui was speechless.
