Sheriff's Mansion

Lu Songli and Wu Ren were having a conversation.

Wu Ren returned to Chang'an, where he and his family moved with the army to Tianshui Village, Houcheng, Liaodong County. Later, Lu Desheng was promoted to county governor, and Wu Ren officially became Lu Songli's disciple.

The apprenticeship banquet is simple but grand.

At this point, the two officially confirmed their master-disciple status.

Although Wu Ren is older than Lu Songli, a master is a teacher, and Wu Ren does not dare to be disrespectful to her.

After Lu Desheng was promoted to the governor of Liaodong County, the restrictions on Lu Songli were very small, and the same was true for the Qin family.

We are not the kind of people who are indifferent. The most important point is, of course, that Lu Songli is not the kind of person who sticks to the rules.

Even if someone reports it, they have reasons to respond.

Her father used them, which was called making the best use of everything. Anyway, no matter how much Lu Songli and the Qin family did, there was no merit.

She helps her father handle official affairs in the county magistrate's mansion, but does not hold any position. In other words, no matter how well she does, the credit will not fall on her. But the benefits will fall on her father.

The same goes for the Qin brothers. The anti-bandit operation is being carried out vigorously, and the Qin brothers even serve as the main commanders.

But they don't get any credit. All the credit goes to their squad leaders or even higher-level climbers. Of course, these people are all their own.

This is what I said before, power will not disappear, it will only shift.

Lu Songli said to Wu Ren, "Produce more grain, oil, meat, eggs, and all kinds of food."

A while ago, when they were distributing military pay, rewards for suppressing bandits were also distributed to the soldiers who participated in suppressing bandits.

The size of the reward depends on the merits of the soldiers in the process of suppressing the bandits. Those who are more likely to receive five or sixty taels, while those who are less likely to receive three or four taels.

This is like a drop of water entering a frying pan and it explodes. For the soldiers, how long has it been since they saw military pay in cash? Serving as a soldier in Houcheng, it is good to have enough to eat, but they have never seen military pay.

Pass.

Now there is a cash reward for going out to suppress bandits? You must go!

In addition, after the soldiers who went to suppress bandits returned to the military camp, they often mentioned the good food they had while suppressing bandits.

Nowadays, more and more soldiers are applying to suppress bandits, and they are very enthusiastic, and the bandit suppression team is getting stronger and stronger.

There are also men who serve in road construction, and their daily consumption is not small.

These people have a great demand for meat, eggs and food.

Lu Songli has always adhered to the principle that if you want a horse to run, you must feed it good grass.

You can't even eat well, but you still want others to work hard for you?

Wu Ren shook his head with a grimace, "Master, we can't do it, we really can't do it."

When war was about to break out, many people disposed of all their livestock before fleeing for their lives.

Hearing this, Lu Songli frowned slightly. Are the supplies in Liaodong County so poor?

The amount of grain, oil, meat and eggs she requested was based on the fact that they did not take care of the food of the military camps in Liaodong County, or even the food of the Houcheng military camp.

There is a problem with the quartermaster of the Houcheng military camp, and he is guilty of serious corruption.

At present, the military affairs of Liaodong County are controlled by Le Guicai. Her father is currently very busy and has not yet intervened.

The quartermaster of the Houcheng Military Camp had some background. Lu Songli knew this very well, so she didn't care about it for the time being. She didn't want the good meat and grain she had worked so hard to get go into other people's pockets.

"I know the burden on your shoulders is heavy, but you should try your best."

Wu Ren has a heavy burden now. Longcheng Pharmaceutical Factory is gradually getting on the right track and can start shipping and distributing goods.

Currently Liu Erxi and Mo Bing are also here to help, and they are currently focusing on the decoration of the shop.

In addition, he is also responsible for purchasing these official and military supplies, purchasing medicinal materials, etc.

Lu Songli realized that Wu Ren still needed to continue to grow.

"Master, I will try my best."

Lu Songli knew that he could not be blamed for this, and Liaodong County was in dire need.

Not only that, she discovered that the price of grain in Liaodong County remained high, which was all due to the impact of the war. The grain merchants saw that the situation was wrong and ran away.

Lu Songli sighed, it would be great if they could buy a batch of grain from the south. Unfortunately, their business territory has not yet been expanded.

"In this case, if that doesn't work, you can go to the coastal counties and collect more dried seafood such as salted fish, shrimps, rice, kelp, and seaweed."

After Wu Ren went out, Lu Songli also stood up and walked to the window to look into the distance.

She thought that the breeding industry still had to be started!

Solve people's livelihood problems first.

We have to recruit some skilled people to do these things.

Chickens, ducks, pigs, cattle and sheep must be raised, and rabbits can also be raised. Rabbits reproduce quickly. In addition to eating meat, they can also save their skins.

In addition, Lu Songli is selecting a site to build an economic development zone like later generations, move the county governor's mansion there, and put the academy there...

These things require people to do them.

Her father recently took Guo Chunsheng to visit the counties in Liaodong County, and by the way handled some cases where people sued officials, as well as some wrongful and wrongful cases. Firstly, he was redressing the grievances of the people, and secondly, he could build up his reputation in Liaodong County.

The Qin brothers were busy training troops to suppress bandits, Xue Xu was in charge of road construction, Xu Zheng was in charge of public security in Houcheng, and Yang Wei led people to protect her father and Lord Guo...

Paper mill in progress…

The academy site has been selected and construction is ready to begin...

They all have things on their shoulders.

Lu Songli had a headache because there were still too few talents.

Xue Xu could probably guess that the Sixth Madam was eager for talents, but it was inconvenient to post a recruitment list.

He was thinking, didn't the old man set off? Why hasn't he arrived yet?

This man just couldn't bear to talk about it. As soon as he started talking about it, the housekeeper of his house sent a servant to find him, saying that there was a distinguished guest at home, and the servant even brought a token.

When Xue Xu saw it, he immediately called the supervisor, explained the matter, and went back.

As soon as he returned, he saw his friend sitting in his home leisurely drinking tea.

"Why are you so slow?"

Ji Wuyin rolled his eyes at him, "You don't know how to do calculations. Hainan County and your Liaodong County are thousands of miles apart in the south and north. My speed is already very fast."

Although it cannot reach the level of traveling six hundred or eight hundred miles a day, it is possible to travel four hundred miles a day.

"You don't know how to walk by water?"

"Did you take the waterway when you went north?" Ji Wuyin asked him contemptuously.

Xue Xu fell silent. He indeed did not take the water route.

People like them cherish their lives very much and will not put themselves in danger easily.

Taking the water route is faster than the land route, but it is more dangerous than the land route.

Although there are mountain bandits and bandits on land, there are also water bandits and water bandits in the water.

If you encounter water bandits and accidentally fall into the water on the way north by boat, it will really make the sky and the earth unstoppable.

This is the truth, but it does not prevent Xue Xu from despising the other party. "You are really cowardly and afraid of death."

"You're talking like you're not afraid of death?" Ji Wuyin gave him a white look.

He, Xue Guangxian, is poor and has nothing, yet he is still afraid of death. He is not as rich as Ji Wuyin, so is it abnormal to be afraid of death?
