Daming: Mixed in Dangzhi County, Beiping

Chapter 6 The magistrate also has to worry about food?
"Your Highness, I heard that when this Guo Zhi County became the Boss of Wanping County last year, because he blocked some people's promotion path, Guo Zhi County has been excluded in the Wanping County government.

Although there is the name of mastering thinness, there is no right to master thinness.

Now, the behavior of the magistrate of Guo County should be the same as that of me who just became a hundred guards of Yanshan. First understand the situation clearly, and then show your skills! "

On the side, Li Wang was more thoughtful and said thoughtfully.

"Hmph, he is a majestic county official, why should he be so timid?"

Zhu Di has a rather impatient temper. After listening to Li Wang's words, his anger has dissipated a little, but he is still a little dissatisfied.

"Your Highness, although the county magistrate of Guo has a house in Wanping County, but his family is out of town, he is a low-level official, so he will always be transferred and leave. Although the local subordinates are humble, they are well versed in the country. Baotuan controls most of the government affairs of a county.

If you annoy those subordinates, Guo Zhixian, a low-rooted and humble magistrate, will definitely be tricked by those subordinates in secret, and it is not impossible to make Guo Zhixian feel ashamed, or seriously hurt his life..."

Li Wang said slowly, "Furthermore, this county magistrate of Guo doesn't have any mentors and friends, and he is not proficient in criminal names, money and food. If he rashly intervenes in the government affairs of the county government, it is very likely that the subordinate officials will take advantage of it!"

"Dare they?"

Zhu Di slapped the table down hard, full of anger.

"Which subordinate official dares to team up to bully Shangguan like this, we directly took someone to raid his home and exile him to a bitter cold place thousands of miles away..."

Seeing that His Royal Highness started to get angry again, Li Wang, Zhu Liang and others all smiled wryly.

His Royal Highness was born a noble person from his mother's womb, so he could not see the dark side of this kind of low life.However, they are all from ordinary people's background, and they have to deal with these subordinates since they were born, so they know how difficult these subordinates are.

"In this regard, do you have any good coups?"

After gulping down a cup of warm tea, Zhu Di asked again.

To be honest, Zhu Di was still a little bit unwilling to give up on Guo An, whom he had high hopes for from the very beginning. He had an intuition that Guo An, who dared to look at him, the King of Yan with such eyes, was definitely not a mediocre and incompetent person. generation.

In this way, it is true that as Li Wang said, Guo An was trapped by those subordinate officials!

Li Wang, Zhu Liang and others have been by Zhu Di's side for so many years, so they can naturally see Zhu Di's thoughts.

"Your Highness, it seems that Guozhi County does not have a master and accountant yet, if His Highness can send that Guozhi County a master who is proficient in criminal names, a friend who is proficient in money and food.

In this way, everyone in Wanping County will know that Guozhi County is someone His Highness likes, and those subordinate officials must not dare to think anything wrong! "

"No!"

Zhu Di quickly shook his head and refused.

"This king is still investigating this son of Guo An. Only if he is a man of great talent, this king will accept him under his family. If he is a mediocre person, this king can't afford to lose this person!
As for the masters and friends who are proficient in criminal names and money, there are only a few in this palace, and they are not enough for themselves, so how can they be given to Guo An at will? "

"Your Highness, forgive me, the last generals are reckless!"

Li Wang hurriedly handed over his hands and pleaded guilty.

Zhu Di waved his hand indifferently, then frowned and thought.

After a long while, he raised his head and said: "Tomorrow, I will go to Beiping's chief envoy to pass on the king's decree. Guo Huan will collude with Li Yu, Zhao Quande and other thieves to bring great harm to my king's Beiping mansion. During the year, each of them will reclaim [-] hectares of land for the king!
If you do a good job, this king will have his own reward.If you don't do well, hum..."

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Yan Wang Changshi Zhu Fu hastily clapped his hands in response.

……

on the other side.

Anfufang, the Guo Mansion in Chunshu Hutong.

After Guo An struggled to finish his dinner, he called the cook from the mansion over.

"The villain Guo Erniang has seen the young master!"

Guo Erniang is a woman with a full face and a round waist. When she walks, the fat on her body trembles.From her grandmother's generation, the whole family worked as servants in the Guo family.

As for Guo Erniang, she has been taking care of Guo An.All the servants in the house also respect Guo Erniang very much!
Guo Erniang couldn't help but look concerned when she saw that there was still less than half of the food on the table.

"Master, you are not feeling well, why did you eat so little today?"

"Thank you for your concern, Auntie. Ever since I watched the beheading at Chaishikou in Nanmen the day before yesterday, my appetite has been poor!" Guo An explained with a gentle face.

Guo Erniang stared wide-eyed, "What should I do? You are already weak, and now your appetite is only half of what you used to be. How can this continue?"

"I'm worried too!"

Guo An sighed helplessly, he was really not used to the food of this era.

Not to mention less salt, not spicy!

There is little meat, and the noodles are not thin!

As for those condiments, they are even less pitiful...

"Auntie, how much food is there in the mansion, please go out tomorrow and buy more salt, sucrose, pepper, ginger, fennel, scallions and other dipping sauces, I want to try a meal with a stronger taste!"

Hearing this, the corners of Guo Erniang's eyes and Guo Erniu and others beside him couldn't help trembling slightly.

"Master, the mansion currently only has 30 taels of silver, which is all the mansion's expenses for this year."

"30 taels, enough to spend!"

Guo An obviously didn't realize anything yet.

"Master, a catty of salt costs [-] Wen, sucrose is more expensive, at least [-] Wen per catty! As for the dipping sauces like pepper, ginger, fennel, and scallions that the Young Master mentioned, the prices are not low.

If you really let it go, it's just salt, sucrose, pepper, ginger, fennel and other seasonings, the 30 taels of silver can only be eaten by the young master for half a year.

As for the wages of the villain and others, as well as the rice oil in the house, the young master's clothes, books, pen, ink, paper and inkstone, etc., you need to ask the master for money! "

"30 taels of silver, not even enough food for a few people in the family for a year?" Guo An was a little surprised.

Guo Erniang glanced at Guo An strangely, "It's not enough for the young master to eat for half a year!"

Guo An was taken aback, "These materials are so expensive!"

Guo Erniang, Guo Erniu and the others nodded in agreement.

"I am a dignified magistrate, but I still have to worry about food?"

Guo An couldn't help being dumbfounded.

Then, thinking of something, he chuckled directly.

"It doesn't matter! Now, I am the magistrate of Wanping County, and I am of the sixth grade. I get a salary of 120 shi every year, and a salary of [-] guan. The sum of these should be enough for the family's expenses!"

Speaking of this, Guo An suddenly felt that it was not so unacceptable for him to be the magistrate of Wanping County.

At least, he has earned his expenses for a year!

"Master is wise!"

Guo Erniang and Guo Erniu were all overjoyed.

At night, Guo An locked himself in the study again...
