After I was Exiled, I Became a Noble Minister

The tall man brought them into the city, Ah Jin glanced at him several times, "Didn't you say you are a refugee?"

I knew it was Liangcheng's spies, who specially mixed in with the refugees to ruin their good deeds, hum.

The tall man gave him a cold look, "Zeng Zhiqiang, the general banner of the head of Qingping County, has been ordered by the head of the county to help the refugees."

As the first batch of officials to follow Mu Wanqing, they are different from others. They are not simply superiors and subordinates, but serve her as the master.

As soon as Mu Wanqing took office, she transferred Master Zeng and his brothers to her side, ready to listen to her orders.

"You people dare to make waves in the county owner's territory, you really don't know whether to live or die."

Who is Mu Wanqing? She is extremely smart, and she is more than a thousand miles away.

Xu Yong and the others were even more afraid, but they had to hold on.

"We didn't do anything, just come to Liangcheng with everyone to take refuge..."

Master Zeng laughed, "Those who think they are smart think they can hide from the eyes of the county owner, but what happened? They all disappeared without a trace."

The dog shivered, "Master Zeng, we are really good people."

He wanted to write the words "good people" on his face.

Master Zeng sneaked into the refugees and heard a lot of information, "The county owner said yes, that's it. If she said no, you are gangsters and don't accept refutation."

Xu Yong:…

The group was uneasy, their faces were frightened, their feet and hands were shaking.

But, unexpectedly, they were taken to dinner.

Xu Yong looked at a pot of red and oily vegetables, but he had never seen it before, "What is this?"

A yamen handed them a bowl, "The county chief asked to eat spicy tofu with rice.

Pour rice into a bowl for one person, stir and stir, and the shiny and shiny rice exudes an attractive fragrance.

But everyone is hesitant, isn't it a meal?

My God, what is this delicious food?

A Jin, who is opposite, trembled with his hands, "Aniu, this meal is so bad that you cry?"

Aniu looked up at him silently, nodded vigorously, "Well, it's too bad, why don't you give me this bowl of rice, I'll help you finish it."

A Jin hasn't reacted yet, Xu Yong has already picked up his chopsticks to eat, moved for a while, then quickened his speed and devoured it.

Forget it.

After eating, they were brought to Mu Wanqing, "County Lord, I brought them all."

Mu Wanqing flipped through a document without raising her head.

Everyone stared at her blankly, this is the Lord of Qingping County.

Xu Yong said dryly, "County Lord, you have misunderstood us. We all came from poverty, and our family suffered..."

Mu Wanqing glanced up at him, her eyes indifferent and without a trace of emotion.

Xu Yong's words were all stuck in his throat, and a chill rose in his heart.

These eyes are not naive girls raised in the boudoir, powerful, indifferent and ruthless.

Mu Wanqing's eyes swept over everyone, "Are you literate?"

Xu Yong didn't say anything yet, Ah Jin said first, "No, we don't know big characters."

There was a hint of mockery in Mu Wanqing's eyes, and there were always smart guys.

"That's a pity, I wanted to arrange some easy paperwork for you, so let's go to the road."

Everyone's faces changed, "What? Road?"

Mu Wanqing waved her hand, and someone immediately pulled them down.

"Brother Zeng, send someone to stare at them and continue to dig deeper. I will use them again."

"Yes."

"Write a report on what happened this time to me." Mu Wanqing still took good care of her own people, "I'll give you credit, it's time for a liter."

Mr. Zeng was overjoyed, "Thank you, county magistrate."

As soon as he left, Mu Wanqing called the Mu Zicheng brothers.

"Brother, you are in charge of land reclamation and keep an eye on the dynamics of this group of refugees. If there is anything wrong, please report it immediately."

Although a team was split, there are more than 5,000 people in the wasteland alone, and it will be very troublesome if it is not handled well.

"Yes." Mu Zicheng is a brick. Wherever it needs to be moved, he will work hard without complaint.

He is growing rapidly and can stand alone.

Mu Wanqing is very at ease with him, and will send more people to him.

"Second brother, father is in charge of the farm and workshop, you are in charge of a few small farms, don't take it lightly."

There are 4,000 people who do odd jobs and farm the land, and these are assigned to different farms.

While the two workshops are expanding, the cotton has entered a mature period and will be ready to be picked soon.

The cotton is picked for simple rough processing, drying, cleaning, elastic cotton, spinning cotton, these are all time-consuming and laborious work.

After that, it is further processed to make various cotton products, as well as cotton ball alcohol, oil extraction, glycerin and so on.

These are labor-intensive.

The mere 20,000 refugees simply cannot fill this gap, and we have to continue to find ways to recruit people.

I have to say that Xu Yong made a wedding dress for her this time.

Well, it's not enough, it has to be recycled.

Listen to me, thank you, because of you, the four seasons have been warmed!

A group of people walked into the house and came out again, coming and going like water.

One after another decree was issued, and the whole Liangcheng was running.

Mu Wanqing finally stopped and took a sip of tea, "Go and invite the two of you."

Soon, the two acquaintances came to her in tandem.

"The county magistrate, what are your orders?"

Mu Wanqing asked them to sit down, and the maid served tea and snacks.

When they ate a few snacks, Mu Wanqing stepped into the topic, "Where does the cost of land reclamation come from?"

Sun Tongzhi was accustomed to crying poor, "Huh? The government has no money, otherwise, you can donate another..."

Mu Wanqing said lightly, "It's impossible to donate money, but I can contribute."

She has a clear distinction between public and private, and the boundaries are clear. Instead, the people in these officials are confused.

"What do you mean?" Sun Tongzhi was confused, didn't it mean the same thing?

Mu Wanqing doesn't spare them, time is precious, she has stayed up late for several days, this is not acceptable.

"If I pay, it will be recorded in my name, if the government pays, it will be recorded in the government's name, this matter involves me personally, I have to avoid suspicion, so you two discuss it ."

She spoke in a sincere and candid manner. The two of them exchanged glances.

"This... let's discuss it first."

Mu Wanqing acted resolutely, "I'll give you one day, because I plan to plant a batch of pasture after the land reclamation, otherwise it will be too late."

"No problem." Jiang Tongzhi was also very happy.

It is a discussion, but it is actually to ask Du Shuai's opinion.

As soon as the office hours are over, the two acquaintances will come to visit.

"Remember it under the name of the government. If the money is not enough, it will be transferred from our Du family's warehouse."

He knows that the government is very poor, and the salary for the last month is almost not released.

Jiang Tongzhi shook his head subconsciously, "That's not necessary, I checked the He family not long ago..."

"Cough cough." Sun Tongzhi coughed violently.

Jiang Tongzhi's expression froze, he is a pig brain! Which pot is not mentioned and which pot is not mentioned!

“Let the wealthy businessmen who escaped gather together, sell what should be sold, and rent what should be rented. This income should be able to support the land reclamation for a period of time.”

Not enough, anyway, with Mu Wanqing, the God of Wealth, what are you afraid of?

The three discussed for a while and reached an agreement.

Sun Tongzhi found a reason to leave first, and Jiang Tongzhi stayed to have dinner with Du Shuai.

The entire Du Mansion is deserted, and the mansion without a mistress is indeed different.

The food in Du Fu is very simple, the two of them have three dishes and one soup, all of which are ordinary home-cooked dishes.

This is the guest who added two more dishes, usually Du Shuai is more simple.

Jiang Tongzhi looked at the food on the table, a braised pork, a stir-fried vegetarian dish, a small stir-fried tofu, a bowl of vegetable soup, and a bowl of steamed bread with white noodles.

Speak out, who would believe that the highest officials of a place eat so easily.

In contrast, those rich and powerful are extravagant.

He was not happy, "Father, your food is too simple, there is no need to save so much."

Du Shuai is very strict with himself, but when the government is short of money, he takes the money from his own treasury without thinking.

"This is considered good. I usually eat steamed buns and make up a meal during wars."

He didn't choose what to eat and wear.

What's more, his son is fighting on the front line, I don't know if he can eat a hot meal, how can he be in the mood to eat and drink?

Jiang Tongzhi silently brought him a piece of braised pork. This recipe was spread after Mu Wanqing came to Liangcheng, and everyone liked it.

Du Shuai couldn't eat two pieces of braised pork and couldn't help sighing, "I'm really old."

Jiang Tongzhi looked at Du Shuai with silver hair. He looked ten years older than his actual age and was too worried.

"Father Shuai, you are living well, which is a great comfort to the people of Xiliang. You will always be the irreplaceable Du Shuai."

The people still love him, and they have not forgotten his contribution to the frontier for decades.

Du Shuai shook his head slightly, now he has no idea, just hope that Du Shaoxuan can lead the Du family army to win this war.

"What do you think of letting Jing Shu come out to work?"

Jing Shu is Miss Du. He values ​​the only son the most, loves the younger daughter the most, but relies on the eldest daughter the most.

Every child is his treasure.

He didn't ask for anything else, he just hoped that a few children could learn a little more and not be overwhelmed by skills.

In the absence of family halo and wealth, the children can still live independently in the world and live in a beautiful and beautiful life. This is his hope.

If it was in the past, Jiang Tongzhi would definitely disagree. Women can take care of children at home, eat, drink, and socialize.

However, now there is a different idea.

Anyone who has seen Mu Wanqing's style will be fascinated by her unique charm.

How to say, not the kind of love between men and women, but the look up to the strong.

"I fully support it. It is best to do things by Mu Wanqing's side. You don't know how fast the Mu family brothers are growing up. I'm a little jealous."

Du Shuai raised his eyebrows, "She only brought the Mu family brothers?"

"Yes, she is very measured, and the degree is just right, not too much, but not too little." The person Jiang Tongzhi admired most in his life was Du Shuai, and now he adds a Mu Wan clear.

He sighed softly, "I really don't know how she can do this at such a young age?"

Bring your own team is an invisible rule, you always need some help.

"Born." Du Shuai's voice sounded softly, like melancholy and envy.
