Yang Jiachen came to Lingqiu City for the first time and was very curious about everything here.
Walking on the street, I keep looking around.
There were many houses on both sides of the street, and there were not many pedestrians, but he noticed that behind the cracks in the windows and doors on the street, someone was secretly looking towards the street.
In other words, looking at them.
"Captain Chen, I see there is no popularity in the city! Was it like this before?" Yang Jiachen chased after two steps and came to the captain of the combat team who was leading the way.
Captain Chen, who was leading the way, looked at the unpopular streets around him and explained: "The people probably haven't adapted yet. With County Magistrate Huang and Magistrate Yang in the future, I believe the city will soon return to its former prosperity."
"How many other big families are there in the city? In the past, many of the directors of the Dongshan Chamber of Commerce were big families in Lingqiu. Each family has deep roots. Many officials in the yamen are inextricably related to them." Lai Lingqiu took office. The elder named Huang asked.
He went to the grassland from Lingqiu and was familiar with many situations here in Lingqiu. Unlike his deputy Yang Jiachen, he knew nothing about many things and needed to understand them bit by bit.
Captain Chen said as he walked: "There are some big families in Lingqiu City who colluded with the local defense and did things that harmed the Tiger Flag. After the army captured Lingqiu, these big families who participated in the Tiger Flag have been wiped out. However, Most people in the Dongshan Chamber of Commerce are fine, but all business at the Dongshan Iron Works has been suspended, and we need you to resume production as soon as possible after taking office."
"All the Dongshan miners have been taken to the grassland. Without the miners, it may not be so fast to resume production." The elder Huang County Magistrate showed a slight worry in his eyebrows.
Captain Chen said with a smile: "Not all the miners were taken to the grassland. Some of the miners were reluctant to leave and stayed at the Dongshan Iron Works. If we make good use of these remaining people, there shouldn't be much problem in starting work."
"As long as there are miners, start working first. If there are not enough people, then find ways to recruit people. There are always more ways than difficulties." County Magistrate Huang smiled and breathed a sigh of relief.
With the miners here, the Dongshan Iron Works can resume normal operations, which will be of great help to him in managing Lingqiu in the future.
A group of people walked along the road.
There is a ditch on the side of the road for drainage. Because it snowed not long ago, there is a lot of incompletely melted snow and shit-yellow ice piles accumulated in the ditch.
No need to ask, Yang Jiachen knew what was mixed in the yellowing ice and snow.
When I lived in Qingcheng, I saw too many things like this mixed with gold juice. If the Tiger Character Banner hadn't taken control of Qingcheng later and made some changes to Qingcheng's environment, the streets of Qingcheng would now be full of all kinds of things. Cattle and sheep dung.
Although the Lingqiu in front of him was the county seat of the Ming Dynasty, in his eyes, it was no different from the previous Qingcheng. They were all dirty and messy, and the dirty things from every household were poured into the ditches in the city.
"Do you feel inferior to Qingcheng? You feel a little uncomfortable." County Magistrate Huang, who was walking next to him, noticed the change on Yang Jiachen's face and asked with a smile.
After coming back to his senses, Yang Jiachen shook his head slightly and said, "Don't worry, County Magistrate, I can adapt. The situation in Qingcheng used to be similar to here."
"We have to change slowly when we come here. There is no rush." County Magistrate Huang said with a smile.
I know that there is a long way to go, but I don't know that one day things will change for the better.
"We're here." Captain Chen, who was leading the way, pointed to the garrison in front of him.
County Magistrate Huang raised his head and glanced at the door plaque of the Defense Mansion, frowned slightly and said, "Why are you here at the Defense Mansion? Why don't you go to the county government office."
"Lingqiu County Magistrate Guo Binchang was quite honest and obedient. Chen Shizheng spared his life and imprisoned him in the county government office, but all the things in the county government office were moved to the garrison mansion." Captain Chen explained at the side.
County Magistrate Huang nodded and said, "Go and see your captain first."
With that said, he walked towards the garrison mansion.
All the rights in Lingqiu City are in the hands of the captain who stayed behind, and the handover needs to be done before he can take back the power that belongs to him as the county magistrate.
There are guards standing guard outside the gate of the garrison.
Captain Chen, who brought the people over, said to the guard in front of the door: "These two are the county magistrate and county magistrate who came to Lingqiu to take office. Send someone in to inform the captain."
A guard turned around and ran inside to report.
Not long after, the sound of chaotic footsteps came from the yard, and before the person appeared, laughter had already appeared in the ears of the people outside the door.
"Haha, you guys are here, I'm looking forward to the stars and the moon, and I've been waiting for you." A man wearing cotton armor walked out of it with a smile.
County Magistrate Huang smiled and took out his appointment document and handed it over. At the same time, he said: "Captain He, this is my appointment document. Where is yours, little brother?"
As he spoke, he said something to Yang Jiachen standing aside.
Yang Jiachen hurriedly took out his appointment document from his arms and handed it over with both hands.
"We are all acquaintances. Brother Huang, when you were the shopkeeper in Xujiazhuang, I was the captain of Xujiazhuang's resident army. Maybe I still don't believe you." Captain He said this, but the movements of his hands were different. slow.
He took the appointment documents from two people in turn and confirmed them respectively.
After confirming that they were correct, he returned the two appointment documents to the two people and said with a smile: "Come in, please. I have already packed up two rooms. I will take you there."
"Should this plaque be replaced?" County Magistrate Huang raised his head and pointed at the sign of the Defense Office above.
Captain He smiled and said: "Haha, there is no need to change. From now on, I will stay in Lingqiu as a guard and cooperate with you two to manage Lingqiu. If you have anything to do, just ask me to do it."
"This is a good thing. I would like to congratulate Captain He first." County Magistrate Huang bowed his hand towards Captain He.
"There is nothing to congratulate." Captain He waved his hand and said immediately, "To be honest, I would rather stay in the combat division and continue to fight with the army. Unfortunately, due to the transfer order sent by the Military and Political Department, I have to stay Lingqiu.”
County Magistrate Huang smiled softly after hearing this.
Although it is dangerous to fight with the army outside, it is easy to get promoted because of quick achievements. It is much safer to stay in Lingqiu, but the credit for killing enemies is gone. It is not so easy to be promoted quickly.
A group of people entered the garrison.
The residences of County Magistrate Huang and Yang Jiachen were arranged in the same courtyard.
The two people put their bags in their respective rooms and were forcibly dragged to the dining room of the garrison mansion by Captain He.
A few simple dishes and a bottle of wine were placed on the table.
"Sit, sit, sit." Captain He asked the two of them to sit down and said, "The food is a little simpler, don't dislike it."
"It's very good. We ate dry food all the way." County Magistrate Huang said with a smile.
Captain He picked up the jug, filled a glass of wine for each of the two people, and said at the same time: "Try it, this is the sorghum wine of our Tiger Flag, and it was found from the garrison."
