Chapter 177

The tall man took 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 solve their problems."

As the first batch of officials to follow Mu Wanqing, they were different from others in that they were not simply superiors and subordinates, but they took her as their master.

As soon as Mu Wanqing took office, he transferred Master Zeng and his brothers to his 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 take refuge in Liangcheng with everyone..."

Master Zeng chuckled, "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 Suosuo trembled, "Master Zeng, we are really good people."

He could not wait to write the words "good people" on his face.

Mr. 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 of people was uneasy, with a look of fear on their faces, and 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. You have a good time today, and you can follow along."

A bowl of rice is poured over each person, stirring and stirring, and the shiny and shiny rice exudes an attractive aroma.

But everyone was hesitant, wouldn't it be a meal?

Aniu couldn't resist the temptation and sighed, and he was shocked by the delicious smell, and couldn't help but burst into tears.

My God, what kind of fairy delicacy is this?

On the opposite side, A Jin's hands trembled, "Aniu, this meal is so bad that you cry?"

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

Before Ah Jin could react, Xu Yong had already picked up his chopsticks and started eating. He moved for a while, then quickened his speed and devoured it.

Forget it, even if it's a broken head meal, it's enough to eat.

After eating, they were brought in front of Mu Wanqing, "County Lord, I brought them all."

Mu Wanqing flipped through a document without raising her head, "Tell me about your origins and background, and the purpose of this trip."

She doesn't apply fat powder, she wears a yellow coat and a golden crown, she is in high spirits, and her appearance is unparalleled.

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

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

Mu Wanqing raised her head and glanced 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 innocent girls who were raised in a boudoir, powerful, indifferent and ruthless.

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

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

There was a faint sarcasm in Mu Wanqing's eyes, 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 repair?"

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'll 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."

Master Zeng was overjoyed, "Thank you, county lord."

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

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

Although a team has been 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 complaining.

He is growing rapidly and can already stand alone.

Mu Wanqing was very at ease with him, and she would send more people to him.

"Second brother, your father is in charge of the farm and the workshop, and 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 labor-intensive activities.

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

These all require a lot of manpower.

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

It has to be said that Xu Yong and several people made wedding dresses 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 entered the house and came out again, coming and going like flowing water.

One after another decree was issued, and the entire Liangcheng began to operate.

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

Soon, the two acquaintances came to her in tandem.

"County Lord, what are your orders?"

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

After 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, but instead, the people in these officials are mixed up.

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

Mu Wanqing didn't spare the circle with them, time was precious, she had stayed up late for several days in a row, so this was 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, so I have to avoid suspicion, so you can discuss it."

What she said was sincere and frank, and 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. If I don't plant it, it will be too late."

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

Said to be a discussion, in fact, to ask Du Shuai's opinion.

As soon as it was time to get off work, the two acquaintances came to visit.

Du Shuai pondered for a while. He shouldn't have intervened, but this matter seems simple, but it actually involves all aspects.

"It will be recorded in the name of the government. If the money is not enough, it will be allocated from our Du family's treasury."

He knew that the government was so poor that the salary for the last month could not be distributed.

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

"Cough cough." Sun Tongzhi on the side coughed violently.

Jiang Tongzhi's expression froze, his 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."

It's not enough to say, 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 was deserted, and a mansion without a mistress was indeed different.

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

This is still two more dishes for the guests, and Du Shuai is usually 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 buns with white noodles.

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

In contrast, those rich and powerful who have a lot of delicacies and delicacies are extravagant.

He was unhappy, "Father, your food is too simple, there is no need to save so much."

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

"This is considered good. I usually eat steamed buns and have a meal when I'm fighting."

He wasn't picky about food and clothing at first, as long as he could get along.

What's more, his son is fighting on the front line. 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 very much.

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 a dozen years older than his actual age, and he was too worried.

"Father Shuai, if you live well, you are 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. He just hopes that Du Shaoxuan can lead the Du family army to win this war.

"Let Jing Shu come out to work, what do you think?"

Jingshu is Miss Du. He values ​​his only son the most, loves his younger daughter the most, but relies on his 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 bit more and not be overwhelmed by their skills.

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

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

But now there are different ideas.

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

How should put it, it's not the kind of love between men and women, but the look up to the strong.

"I fully support it. It's best to do things with Mu Wanqing. You don't know how fast the Mu family brothers have grown 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 of control is just right, not too much, but not too much." The person Jiang Tongzhi admired most in his life was Du Shuai, and now he adds Mu Wanqing.

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

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

However, the things that can't be made like their own, as long as the surname is Mu, they will bring them here.

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