Farmer's Little Girl

Chapter 213

The master was startled and hurriedly said, "Why are you so worried?"

Fu County Magistrate walked back a few steps, clenched his fist in one hand, pressed it on the desk and said, "Lord Wei is going to Yizhou with relief food. I heard that he came to Yizhou not only for disaster relief, but also for the gold dike case."

After a pause, county magistrate Fu said, "you and I all know that there are too many states and counties involved in the breakout of Jindi this time. Most of the whole Yizhou, even the whole Jiannan Road, are involved. I'm not close or far from Yizhou."

Shiye understood that he was afraid of becoming a fish in the pond.

He thought for a moment and whispered, "have you asked Lord Fu in the capital?"

County Magistrate Fu shook his head and said, "I'm afraid my uncle can't control me. It's better to rely on others than yourself."

That's not his own uncle. He's just a side branch of the Fu family.

The master comforted him in a low voice: "Sir, the casualties in Luojiang county are not serious. At least compared with other affected States and counties, we are in good condition. So my subordinates think the Lord doesn't have to worry too much. "

"What if I want to take advantage of this."

Shiye looked up at magistrate Fu in surprise.

Fu County Magistrate took two steps behind his back, considered his words and said, "this year is my sixth year as the county magistrate of Luojiang county. It is supposed that I should have received some news at the beginning of spring, but there was no news above. I entrusted someone to inquire about the Ministry of officials, but I didn't get any news."

He talked about this topic with his master. Both of them prefer the Ministry of officials, want them to be re elected, or have forgotten them. Naturally, it doesn't matter to be promoted.

However, magistrate Fu didn't want to be re elected. He said, "as a rule, the magistrate is re elected for two terms. After that, he will be promoted one level or transferred back to Beijing, but I will be re elected for three terms. Nine years. Wen Bo, how many nine years can I have?"

Generally, there are only two kinds of county magistrate who can be re elected indefinitely. One is that when the official is old and it is difficult to move to the right, he will let people die in office;; The other is that officials offended the people above and were postponed indefinitely.

But magistrate Fu felt that he did not belong to the first or the second. He was forgotten. If he didn't do something, he would be forgotten indefinitely.

In fact, his identity is a little awkward. He is a scholar, but he is a side branch far away from his direct branch. He has a rich family, but he has no contacts in officialdom.

But he didn't have any outstanding political achievements in office, so the Shangguan didn't want to recommend him, and the official department naturally didn't remember him.

If he doesn't do anything, he may really serve four or five consecutive terms in Luojiang county. When he gets old, even if he can be transferred, he will probably be transferred to other counties to be a county magistrate.

That's not what magistrate Fu wants to see.

Of course, the master didn't want his employer to do nothing. After a little thought, he understood and asked, "Lord, do you have a direction?"

"I mentioned with the county magistrate two days ago that I wanted to report and exempt from taxes this autumn, and I also had to apply for some relief food with Lord Wei. After all, our county now takes in many refugees, and the people under our rule are also damaged. If we don't provide relief, I'm afraid selling children and girls will happen again." County Magistrate Fu thought carefully and said, "they agree with the latter, but we can't decide on the former."

If we can't make a decision, we are mostly in favor and even more opposed.

Shiye said he understood that the autumn tax will not be transported to the capital, but most of it will remain in the local area as local financial expenditure.

At this time, county magistrate Fu wanted to make a further step in his political achievements. Of course, he was willing to tighten his belt and make a career, but most of the officials below the county magistrate were local people. Most of them had to stay here all their life. Naturally, the money and food they got was more important.

Moreover, the application must be approved by the assassin, who may not be willing to be exempt from tax.

"But today, someone made the same suggestion," said county magistrate Fu with deep eyes and hands on his back. "Although it's just a baby, if even a baby thinks so, how many of the people under my rule think about the same thing? If there is no relief or tax reduction in the end, and there are so many refugees under the jurisdiction, once someone encourages, then... "

The martial master was surprised and said in a deep voice: "the Lord is right, and now the whole Jiannan Dao officialdom is in turmoil, one of them is not very..."

"I also have this worry," Fu County Magistrate lowered his voice. "My uncle wrote a letter saying that the sage and the court were very angry about the breakout of the golden dike. Not only the governor and the governor, but also the king of Yizhou will be implicated."

These are either second-class border officials or royal relatives. They can't keep them, let alone the shrimp and fish under them.

Fu county magistrate was lucky. Luojiang county was on the side of the earth and in the deep mountains. The flood didn't rush to them. You know, three county magistrates have died since the golden dike burst.

One fell into the water during the flood fighting and was washed away, one was cut down by the Jiedu envoy, and the other committed suicide by hanging a beam.

As a county magistrate, although Yizhou is far from Luojiang County, Fu county magistrate is also frightened and afraid of becoming a pond fish.

It is also for this reason that he wants to take the opportunity to make some achievements, not only for promotion, but also for self-protection.

County Magistrate Fu discussed with his master for half a night, and then slept on the collapse of his study. The next day, the chicken crowed for the second time, and he got up from bed.

Days of fatigue and lack of sleep made him look ten years old, but he simply ate a little heart and took people to Dali Village.

Man Bao was shocked when he saw the county magistrate. He almost thought it was his father. If he hadn't been wearing the county magistrate's official clothes, man Bao would have called him Grandpa.

Man Bao sighed with Keke and said, "our county magistrate doesn't look very bad, although he always charges us for entering the city."

Koko didn't answer.

Man Bao is also used to watching with his friends.

Magistrate Fu came to investigate the disaster situation. This is his first visit to Qili Village. Dali Village has been to Qili Village three times.

Because the head of Qili Village is in Dali Village, the two villages are at the junction, and the fields are mixed together, so he wants to come down to persuade Nongsang, and Fu County Magistrate only goes to Dali Village.

The reason why he came to Qili Village this time was for master Bai, to verify the disaster situation, and to take a look at Zhou man and Bai Shan.

Especially after Zhou man made such a suggestion with his second daughter.

In this flood, three houses in Qili Village collapsed and 12 houses were damaged. Under the arrangement of the village head, the villagers helped each other build or repair them.

The disaster situation is not very serious, but these affected families, especially the three families whose houses collapsed, have a very sad life.

No way. When the house collapsed, many things were damaged and the food was damp.
