high official

Chapter 94 Disk Library
Outside the Yongfeng Warehouse in Fuyang County, there are three floors of people watching the excitement.

But none of them could get close to Yongfeng Warehouse, because the gate of the warehouse was full of soldiers who supervised grain roads, patrolled roads, and guarded roads in Zhejiang.

It is extremely rare for three ships to reach one county, but this morning, three official ships arrived at Fuyang County at the same time.One of them hangs the flags of Zhejiang Chief Envoy Zuo Zheng, Zhejiang Governor of Liangdao; Make Zuo Senate and Hangjiahu keep the banner of the road.

After seeing so many high officials, the common people knew that there must be something exciting to watch, so they put down their work and gathered around to watch wholeheartedly.

What is even more surprising is that Wei Zhi County did not know about it earlier than the common people. When he rushed to the pier with a group of subordinates, the three senior officials in scarlet robes had already disembarked.

The magistrate of Wei hurriedly made a salute and said: "I have lost my way, please welcome the three priests to make amends..."

The head of the three, Du Liangdao, said with a smile: "The situation is urgent, and it's too late to notify Gui County, but we are abrupt."

The magistrate of Wei hurriedly said, 'Where is there'.

"Under the order of the Third General Constitution, I will go to various counties to inspect the disaster relief preparations. Fuyang County is the first stop." The branch guard said with a smile: "We also ask the county magistrate to cooperate."

Wei Zhixian hurriedly said, "Definitely."

"Let's gossip," the branch inspector said sarcastically, "We have to go elsewhere."

"The three Daoist officials are invited to rest at the yamen, so that the lower officials can report the situation." Wei Zhixian said earnestly.

"No need." The branch inspector said coldly: "Go straight to the reserve warehouse for inspection!"

"So urgent?" Wei Zhixian asked in surprise.

"During a catastrophe, food is more important than gold." Dao Liang, the food supervisor, comforted him in a warm voice, "We also ask the magistrate of Wei to take care of him."

"Yes..." Wei Zhixian secretly smiled wryly, so what if I don't agree?

.

In Yongfeng warehouse, Du Ziteng unlocked the lock, and the two Douqi pushed the heavy hatch open.I saw that the piles of grain bags inside were neatly stacked, as majestic as a mountain, and everywhere was spotless and well-organized.

Du Ziteng bowed and stepped aside, several adults went in with no expression on their faces, and the grain superintendent and Taoist official who followed behind held the account book, singing the number of stored grain, while lighting the rice bags stored in the warehouse, for the three Taoist platforms to have a look.

The strange thing is that the sub patrol road is more concerned about the grain storage than the grain supervision road.He ordered people to randomly take thirty or forty bags of grain from the warehouse, then opened them all and poured them on the ground.

The rice is poured down without any impurities, and there is no stale grain.

Du Liangdao is an expert, he immediately inspected the five warehouses, and all of them were like this, so he knew that the condition of Yongfeng warehouse was surprisingly good.too good to be true...

Looking approvingly at Wei Zhixian, who was thin due to fatigue and had high cheekbones, Qi Zheng, the food supervisor, asked, "How did Wei Zhixian do it?"

"The lower officials just act according to the rules." Wei Zhixian said respectfully: "There is nothing special about it." Although his tone was light, he couldn't help but feel happy.The feeling of pretense can only be known by trying it...

"My official said..." Qi Daotai explained: "Some of the bad rules that are common in the granary, you haven't seen here."

"Since it is a bad rule, there is no need for it to exist." Wei Zhixian continued to pretend.The seven orifices of Sun Daotai, the inspector of the road, were angry, but they couldn't find any faults.In half a day, he had already counted half of the grain depots, and found that there was much more grain in them than the stipulated amount. How could people make trouble?
"Wei magistrate, why is the grain in storage far exceeding the limit?" Sun Daotai said coldly, "You are the only one in the grain storage in the whole world."

"Reporting to Daotai, because the arable land in Fuyang is scarce, most of the people don't grow food and rely on buying it." Wei Zhixian explained: "Once there is a food shortage, the people in Fuyang will face the danger of food shortage, so the county has to store more grain and grass. Prepare for emergencies."

"Well, is there such a tradition?" Qi Daotai asked strangely, "Why haven't I heard of it?"

"This is a new rule established by the county master..." Du Ziteng whispered: "It didn't exist before."

"Very good, the magistrate of Wei County is young and mature, and can be called a capable official." Qi Daotai looked at the other two and said, "I am very satisfied with the situation in Yongfeng warehouse."

"The lower officials also have the same opinion." Nafen Shoudao also nodded and said: "The general magistrate's attitude towards Chang Pingcang is to guarantee the warehouse. In fact, it is very good if he can do a good job in guaranteeing the warehouse. But what Wei Zhixian pursues is It is a surplus warehouse, which shows that the magistrate of Wei County is doing things with sincerity."

"That's right." Qi Daotai nodded and said: "Only when the Changping warehouse is filled up, once such a disaster year hits, can we ensure emergency relief."

"Let's talk about it elsewhere!" Sun Daotai said in a muffled voice, "Have the places where the disaster victims live are ready?"

"It's basically ready," Wei Zhixian replied, "My lords, please come with me."

"Please." The three Taoists finished their inspection of the granary and followed Wei Zhixian to leave Yongfeng warehouse.

Seeing all the adults leave, Du Ziteng hurriedly saluted Wang Xian deeply: "Grandfather, you are the savior of my family." Although Wang Xian made him docile, Du Ziteng could not help feeling resentful, but now only Thank you very much.

"Master Du has won a lot of prizes this time, and his promotion is just around the corner. It's really gratifying." Wang Xian said with a faint smile.

"It's all thanks to benefactor." Du Ziteng said sincerely: "From now on, if benefactor has orders, Ziteng will go through fire and water, and he will not hesitate!"

"You don't need to go through fire and water." Wang Xian said solemnly: "One is to take good care of Yongfeng warehouse, and the other is to inform those grain merchants so that they can go to Changsha to transport grain and buy as much as they can." During the Chinese New Year, Zhou Yang gave Wang Xian Happy New Year, I mentioned that I have established contact with the grain merchants in Changsha, and I can buy grain at any time.

"But they have no money." Du Ziteng said with a wry smile, "All the money was used to buy food, and it was paid to the government."

"Borrow money from banks and salt merchants, as much as you can borrow, and the county can guarantee it," Wang Xian said in a deep voice, "It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and I can make it all back once. Also go to sell food."

"I understand what Engong means. Thank you, Engong, for your guidance." Du Ziteng nodded heavily and said, "If you really make money in the future, you will definitely have a share of Engong."

"That's not necessary." Wang Xian said, "I want to avoid food shortage in this county."

"That's right," Du Ziteng said with deep sympathy, "All the counties are estimated to be in short supply of food due to this storm, so they will definitely not let the food flow out."

This is not a big problem for ordinary counties, but for counties like Fuyang, which is highly dependent on buying grain, the price of grain must rise several times that of other counties, and there will still be shortages.In order to avoid a food shortage, Wang Xian discussed with Wei Zhixian to buy grain from a distance to make up for the shortage.

"Let the three of them do this errand well." Wang Xian ordered: "It will be of great benefit and immeasurable merit. This kind of good thing is rare in a thousand years."

"Yes." Du Ziteng replied respectfully.

　It's too late, I have to get up early to take care of the children, let's send out two thousand first, and four thousand in the next chapter...
