Wei and Jin Cooks

   Chapter 183 Li Xian Corporal

   Zhao Hanzhang said: "You will bring someone to Shang Cai tomorrow to invite him over. He is now the head of Xiping County, and many things have to be discussed with him."

   In fact, I wanted to get some advice from him. Now Zhao Hanzhang has a plan. She is very busy every day and needs to deal with a lot of things, but she always feels that something is missing.

  Fu Tinghan is also busy. They have tried their best to use the following people, but they still feel that the efficiency is different from what they expected.

  Although Song Zhi and Geng Rong both said that they were very efficient, they still had a sense of urgency, because if you count the time, winter is coming soon, and once the cold current comes down and the land freezes, they will not be able to grow the land.

   But now, they are short of everything. Although they have asked Jiyuan to buy some, and also asked Zhao Ming to come forward and buy some from the clansmen in Wubao, the shortage is still very large.

   Zhao Hanzhang poked at the wheat rice in the bowl and said, "My goal is that one day the people under my rule can afford buns and rice, and they will no longer eat bean rice and wheat rice."

   Maifan, rice cooked with husk wheat.

  It is true that some people really don’t know that wheat can be made more delicious after being husked and ground into flour, but that is only the case in very remote places.

   More people know.

   But why don't they do it, or eat wheat rice?

   Of course, it is because there is not enough food, so we have to eat it sparingly.

   Oh, there is another reason, because of laziness and manpower.

  The wheat is peeled and ground into flour. In fact, the wheat husk can also be ground into flour and mixed with flour to make buns. Although the taste is not very good, it is stronger than wheat rice.

   However, grinding into powder requires a lot of manpower and time. Under the circumstance that survival resources require a lot of time to fight, not many people are interested in doing this kind of thing.

   After all, it’s good to have something to eat.

   But a good diet can not only make people happy, but also inspire people's fighting spirit. Zhao Hanzhang took another bite of wheat rice and immediately decided, "I want to build a mill!"

   Fu Tinghan responded immediately, "I agree with this."

   Zhao Hanzhang couldn't help but be happy, handed the bowl over, "Give me some?"

  Fu Tinghan moved away, "No, I can eat it."

   The next day, Qiu Wu and his party picked up Cheng Bo and Chang Ning and his party on the way.

   Qiuwu said happily: "It was the girl sent to take over Mr. Chang."

  Chang Ning felt Zhao Hanzhang's attention, even if she knew that she had bad intentions, oh, no, she wanted something, but she couldn't help being moved.

   This is the change brought about by the change of mentality. Sure enough, once the other party becomes his own lord and becomes a member of the road, the ill-intentioned person also becomes a corporal of courtesy.

  Chang Ning was grateful for Zhao Hanzhang's attention, and he speeded up on the road.

   Before he got close to Xiping County, he noticed the difference.

   There were many young men working in the fields on both sides of the road. He stopped to take a look and found that there were three or five young men in each field, and there was no woman or child nearby.

  In ordinary farmhouses, it is not only men who go to the fields, but the whole family, young and old. Anyone who can walk freely will go to work in the fields.

  Chang Ning pointed and asked, "Is that a villager?"

   Qiu Wu took a look and said, "No, it's a refugee taken in by the girl, and now she's a long-term worker."

   "Then these places..."

   "It's all unclaimed wasteland," Qiu Wu said: "The girl asked them to open it, and this year they will plant wheat."

  Chang Ning silently recorded that the closer he got to the county town, the more lively he was, and the women, old people and children he knew slowly appeared in the fields on both sides. On the contrary, there were fewer young and middle-aged people in the fields where these people worked.

  Chang Ning guessed it without asking. He sighed and asked, "Is there a lot of casualties in the battle for defending the city in Xiping County?"

   Qiuwu nodded, "Yes."

  Because it was busy with farming, it was very lively outside the city, and the city was a little deserted, but I still felt the vitality of Xiping County.

  Although the white flags and sackcloths on both sides of the road are still hanging, the sadness brought by the war can no longer be felt, and everyone who passes by has a shallow smile on the face.

  Changning didn't expect Zhao Hanzhang to do such a good job, how long has it been since Xiping broke the city? She even let the people out of their grief.

  Chang Ning rode his horse and walked all the way to see that some soldiers had gone to the county government to report in advance.

   Zhao Hanzhang summoned the large and small officials working in the county government office to go out to greet him.

  Chang Ning just arrived at the gate of the county government office, and before he dismounted, Zhao Hanzhang stepped up quickly with a happy face, "Mr. Chang, you are finally here."

  Chang Ning was flattered, and hurriedly bowed and saluted, "The girl will embarrass me, I don't dare to be a girl so big."

   "Sir, I have worked so hard to invite me here, no matter how big the gift is," Zhao Hanzhang took him to introduce to everyone, "This is our new chief bookkeeper in Xiping County, Changning, Chang chief bookkeeper."

   Geng Rong and the others hurriedly bowed and saluted, "Always Master."

  Chang Ning hurriedly returned the salute. When he looked up, he saw another woman standing in the second row. He paused and returned to normal.

   Even the lord is a girl, so why is it strange that there is a female official in the county office?

   Zhao Hanzhang introduced them, "The one the chief clerk has met, Lord Fu Dalang, although he does not serve in the county government office, but Hanzhang relies on him for many things. He is my left and right arm."

  Chang Ning understood that Fu Tinghan was an aide, so he would just look at it as a county magistrate in the future.

   But the lord's attitude changed too quickly, and he even called him the lord right away.

Song Zhi, who was introduced by Zhao Hanzhang first, said, "Zhao county chief is busy with affairs and is not in the county office most of the time, so the position of county chief is managed by Fu Dalangjun and I, and trivial matters are handed over to Song Zhi. If you need to communicate with the county magistrate, find him first."

  Chang Ning understood that Song Zhi was a document, but it didn't seem to be decided yet.

   Zhao Hanzhang then introduced Geng Rong, "This is the document I found for the Chang Zhuzhu. Geng Rong, because his father was the former Zhuzhu, he is still familiar with Xiping County, and the Changzhuzhu will ask him any questions in the future."

   said to Geng Rong again: "You are good at assisting the permanent master."

   Geng Rong replied respectfully, "Yes."

Then I introduced Chen Siniang, "This is Chen Siniang, she is also a householder now, because of the war, many orphans and widows in Xiping County are homeless, so I opened a Yushan Hall in the county to adopt them, and now Yushan Hall is She's in charge."

   Chen Siniang stepped forward and bowed her knees.

  Chang Ning returned the salute and said, "Yu Shantang costs a lot of money, and the accounting books must be clear, so that it can last for a long time."

Zhao Hanzhang nodded and said: "Yes, it just so happens that she is not only kind-hearted and careful, but also has read books and can make account books, so I handed this over to her, and the chief bookkeeper will also pay more attention to Yushan Hall in the future. Now that you have started raising it, you must raise it well.”

   Chang Ning responded.

   Then there were several yamen in the county government office. "There are still some people who are busy outside, and they are not in the county government office at this time. When they come back, I will let the chief clerk see you."

   Zhao Hanzhang said with a smile: "Let's go, I'll take Mr. in to see your public house."

Good night
