Chapter 217 Return to the Capital(1/2)

Afterwards, Emperor Wen did not get on the carriage, but began to wander around the city.

At first, Emperor Wen was a little skeptical, wondering if only the street he just passed was cleaner. But after turning around several places, he found that it was the same. Not to mention Emperor Wen, even the accompanying officials were very surprised.

The same goes for Qin Fang. Although he has heard some words of praise for Rong County from others, he feels that these words must have a certain degree of water. After all, the relationship between him and Qin Hao is there, and it is normal for someone to like him.

It wasn't until he came to Rong County that Qin Fang realized that his son's abilities were much stronger than imagined.

Emperor Wen was a middle-aged entrepreneur who built his fortune. He knew very well that such neat streets required extremely high abilities from those in power. He had never seen such a city in his memory.

On this point alone, even the capital city is not as good as here. Emperor Wen suddenly thought of a question: "Qin Aiqing, how can the houses in Rong County be so neat?"

Urban management planning is a problem that will only be faced in modern society. In ancient times, the government often only intervened in the construction of private houses and did not take care of them. As long as they did not exceed the regulations, they could basically build whatever they wanted.

But in Rong County, almost all houses are built in a block-like manner, and the width of the street is basically enough for two carriages to walk. The main road can even allow four carriages to drive side by side.

Qin Hao briefly explained how to do urban planning, including public toilets and sewage systems.

But even so, Emperor Wen and all the officials were greatly amazed.

After walking around in Rong County, Emperor Wen asked Qin Hao to lead them to visit the kiln factory. At this time, the kiln factory had become an entire industrial area. Compared with the city, the industrial area was dirtier and worse. Of course, it was just

On the contrary, for those black kilns and small workshops, this place is simply not too tidy.

When Emperor Wen came to the edge of the Min River, he was astonished when he saw the stone hammers and stone mills that were constantly falling up and down without any human effort.

Qin Hao explained with a smile: "Your Majesty, the principle of this is actually not complicated. It is to use the power of water flow to replace labor. It can not only save manpower, but also improve efficiency. All of this is done by Niao Niao."

Emperor Wen was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said to Cheng Shi: "Cheng Aiqing has taught her daughter so well that she can actually create such wonderful things."

Cheng Shi was a little unbelievable. Although he knew that his daughter liked to tinker with these weird things, was it really she who made these ingenious artifacts in front of him?

Xiao Yuanyi's face was even more confused. In her opinion, her daughter had not been doing her job properly before, and she had been doing all these weird tricks all day long, which were of no use at all. However, these utensils in front of her that could automatically crush ore without manpower or animal power had subverted the situation.

her cognitive system.

Emperor Wen was tired after a day of shopping, and finally stayed at the county government office. As a result, all the police officers working in the county government office were kicked out, and the defense was taken over by the Yulin Guards.

Qin Hao took Qin Fang, Cheng Shi, and Xiao Yuanyi to live in his home. Qin Hao's home was in the southeast corner of Rong County's new town. It was relatively quiet and suitable for raising a baby.

Cheng Shaoshang was very happy to see Cheng Shi and greeted him at the door with a big belly.

Upon seeing this, Cheng Shi hurriedly ran up to him: "Oh, you are pregnant now, so you don't pay attention."

Cheng Shaoshang touched his round belly and said with a smile: "I have been sitting or lying down all day, and my body is getting moldy. My husband also told me to exercise more."

"Then there's no need to stand at the door. Let's go in and talk." Qin Fang also felt sorry for this daughter-in-law. She accompanied her son to this remote country and could help her son turn a backward county into what it was like. She was such a virtuous wife.

Where to find.

Xiao Yuanyi felt sad when she saw that Cheng Shaoshang was very close to Cheng Shi and even Qin Fang, but didn't even smile when facing her. She wanted to care about her daughter, but when she faced her distant eyes, her words got stuck.

It's stuck in my throat and I can't spit it out.

At the dinner table, Cheng Shi was in high spirits, drank a lot of wine, and couldn't stop praising Qin Hao: "Uncle, I am convinced that old Cheng is convinced. I always thought that scholars only talk rhetoric. Your Majesty is right, this world is still

We need you scholars to govern."

Xiao Yuanyi winked at Cheng Shi several times, but he didn't respond.

Qin Fang carefully asked some questions about the construction of Rong County. Qin Hao did not hide anything. He gave a straight answer. Qin Fang couldn't help but be impressed: "With your ability, being a county magistrate is a waste of time. In a few years, you will be a county magistrate."

My father will be able to abdicate in favor of the wise and spend his old age in peace."

At this time, in the county government, Emperor Wen was also struggling with this matter. After arriving in Rong County, he no longer had any doubts about Qin Hao's ability, but he had set the unspoken rules of the same clan and different dynasties.

The purpose is to weaken the control of the aristocratic family over the court, so as not to lose the big one. This is a basic national policy. If this rule is broken, it is inevitable that other wealthy families will have this idea in the future.

However, it is too unreasonable to let a talent like Qin Hao be just a county magistrate. As for asking Qin Fang to resign and give up his position to Qin Hao, it is not appropriate. After all, Qin Fang's ability is also outstanding.

After all, Hao is still young, so it is impossible to directly promote him to Jiuqing at once. The road must be taken step by step.

Emperor Wen had people prepare a banquet and called Prime Minister Deng Yu into the room alone.

Prime Minister Deng Yu also saw Emperor Wen's troubles, so he said bluntly: "Your Majesty is worried about the affairs of Da Si Nong and Qin County Magistrate?"

Emperor Wen sighed: "You know me, sir. What do you think I should do?"

"Qin County Magistrate indeed has real talents and knowledge, and should be reused!" Prime Minister Deng Yu bowed and said firmly.

Emperor Wen smiled when he heard this and said, "Didn't you, sir, have some complaints against Qin County Magistrate before?"

Prime Minister Deng Yu said with a righteous face: "This is to promote talents for the country, and I dare not be biased."

"Oh? So sir, you still have a problem with County Magistrate Qin?" Emperor Wen looked at him with a smile.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Prime Minister Deng Yu met Emperor Wen's gaze and said seriously: "I can build a small county of 8,000 households into such a state in two years. I feel inferior, but Qin

After all, the county magistrate is young, and his methods are too radical and need to be tempered. In my humble opinion, your majesty might as well call the magistrate of Qin to be a doctor of Taiyuan University. He will definitely become a pillar of the country in the future."

Emperor Wen was deep in thought, and it was indeed a good choice for Qin Hao to enter Taiyuan University. This was a clean official position. He did not directly participate in government affairs, but could help him make suggestions. It could indeed block the mouths of those wealthy families, and at the same time, it would also allow Qin Hao to work in the Imperial College. Get exercise in handling the daily affairs of the country.

"Sir, you are devoted to the public service and have good intentions." Emperor Wen patted Prime Minister Deng Yu's hand with emotion.

.......

In the next few days, Qin Hao took Emperor Wen and his entourage to introduce in detail the population, education, commerce, etc. of Rong County. Three days later, Emperor Wen returned to the capital with satisfaction. Before leaving, he also revealed to Qin Hao that he would be transferred to the capital after his term of office expired. News of his return to the capital.

Cheng Shi reluctantly waved goodbye to Cheng Shaoshang. Cheng Shaoshang was going to give birth in more than two months. He was very worried, but Cheng Shaoshang's physical condition did not allow her to travel long distances.

"Uncle, Niao Niao is asking you to take good care of her." Cheng Shi grabbed Qin Hao's hand and warned with red eyes.

Qin Hao nodded solemnly: "Don't worry, I will take good care of Niao Niao and the child."

Xiao Yuanyi also wanted to give some advice, but unfortunately Cheng Shaoshang didn't even look at her. Xiao Yuanyi felt so unhappy that she could only turn around and get into the carriage, crying silently alone.

The arrival of Emperor Wen did not disrupt the pace of Rong County's development. Under the development framework formulated by Qin Hao, government officials and local wealthy families could benefit from it, just like a huge snowball rolling down the hillside. No external force is needed to promote it.

As winter approached, the weather gradually became colder, and Cheng Shaoshang finally ushered in the day of giving birth. Even though Qin Hao was fully prepared, he was still a little nervous.

In ancient times, giving birth to a child was like going through hell.

Fortunately, Cheng Shaoshang had been exercising and was in good physical condition. After two hours of difficult labor, he finally gave birth to a baby boy.

"Congratulations to Mr. Qin, you are a young master." Po Wen held a child in her arms and congratulated her.

Qin Hao skillfully held the little guy in his arms. The little guy was crying loudly.

"Daddy, is this my younger brother?" a very cute little girl asked in a crisp voice.

This is Nannan, the granddaughter of the old county magistrate Cheng. Ever since she recognized Qin Hao as her godfather, she has been following them. More than two years have passed and the little girl is almost seven years old. She is so sensible that it makes people feel sad. Her current name is Qin Lan, did you know that his daughter was named this? Qin Hao did not treat her as an outsider.

"Well, when my brother grows up, can you protect him?" Qin Hao rubbed the little girl's head.

"Okay." The little girl nodded solemnly, looking like a young adult.

Qin Hao smiled, handed his son to the wet nurse, and then came to Cheng Shaoshang.

Cheng Shaoshang's face was a little pale, and he lay on the bed exhausted. When he saw Qin Hao, he glanced at him sideways: "It's really unfair. Why don't men need to have children? We women have to bear the blame."

Qin Hao was happy and helped her tidy up the messy hair on her temples: "You still have the energy to complain, which means you're in a good condition."

Cheng Shaoshang was so angry that he took Qin Hao's hand and bit him on the wrist, leaving two rows of teeth marks.

"Mom, my brother is so cute. He can also blow bubbles." At this time, the little girl Qin Lan came in and pointed at the little guy who had just finished feeding and was still lying in the nurse's arms.

Cheng Shaoshang quickly let go of Qin Hao's hand. She still had to act like a loving mother in front of the little girl, mainly because she was too young and had no experience in being a mother.

"Nanny, why are you here? Didn't I tell you to stay in the house?" Cheng Shaoshang admired the loyalty of the old county magistrate Cheng very much, and he loved his daughter as much as he loved the house. Because he was afraid of leaving a psychological shadow on her, he warned her before giving birth.

However, she was not allowed to come to the delivery room.

There were tears in Nannan's eyes: "Mom, I'm worried about you..."

Cheng Shaoshang was very moved and reached out to wipe away the little girl's tears: "Don't worry, Nanny, my mother is fine."

"Yes." Nannan wiped her tears sensibly. At this time, the nanny had already picked up the little guy and placed it next to Cheng Shaoshang's pillow.

Cheng Shaoshang looked at the little guy's wrinkled face and felt a little disgusted: "He looks so ugly, he doesn't even look like me."

Qin Hao was happy: "Children are like this. They will look better when they grow up. After all, his father is so handsome."

"puff."

Both Cheng Shaoshang and Nannan couldn't help laughing.

With the birth of the little guy, the house became lively. The little guy cries very loudly and is very naive. He will cry when Cheng Shaoshang is not around for a while.

In order to take care of this little guy, the two wet nurses were very tired, and Cheng Shaoshang also suffered a lot.

What's more interesting is that the little guy seems to like his sister Nannan very much. When Cheng Shaoshang was not around, only Nannan could coax this little devil. This state continued until Cheng Shaoshang was out of confinement, and then it got better.

After the full moon, the little one has also grown and is very cute. Cheng Shaoshang firmly believes that his son looks like her. Qin Hao will not argue about this. It will be obvious when his son grows up.

As spring passed and autumn came, just six months after the little one was born, Emperor Wen's decree also came down. Qin Hao was transferred to the doctorate of Taiyuan University for his achievements in Rong County, and he was also rewarded with some brocade silks, gold and silverware.

On the day Qin Hao left Rong County, people along the street took to the streets spontaneously, and the kiln factory had to stop work.

"Master Qin, can you stay?" Tian Laowen mustered up the courage to kneel down beside the carriage.

In an instant, the dark crowd knelt down on both sides of the road. In the carriage, Cheng Shaoshang cried silently. How could she be willing to leave this city that she and Qin Hao had built.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Qin Hao lifted the car curtains, slowly walked out of the car, and said to everyone: "Everyone, please come back. There is one thing I hope everyone will remember. The reason why Rong County is what it is today."
