Chapter 2037: Lishi County

Lin Haoming received such a transfer order, which surprised him for a moment. Unlike before, he immediately contacted Gong Xinlan this time. Sure enough, Gong Xinlan did the matter this time, and not only dispatched Lin Haoming alone, but also made arrangements for Lin Haoming and his subordinates one by one.
Among them, Ye Chuan was directly transferred to the Zuo County Magistrate of Lishi County, Li Changsheng became the chief of the punishment house, Mei Sheng and Pan Yue became the chief of the household house and the official house respectively, and even Song Tu and Tian Chenghe became the commander of the arresting department, Dian and the prison department respectively. Although Liu Kai, who was the most trusted, did not get a high position, he also became the commander of the military department and the commander of the city defense department. His old subordinate dismounted and became the deputy commander of the city defense department, and the two joined forces to manage the city guards. It can be said that all the important figures under Lin Haoming became important officials of Lishi County.
This approach is extremely rare in the entire history of Diluan City, almost equivalent to handing over Lishi County to Lin Haoming for management, who is the complete lord of Lishi County.
When Lin Haoming and his family went to Lishi County, another news also came.
When Lin Haoming went to Lishi County to arrest people, the five seventh-rank high-ranking officials in Lishi County were not arrested, only the Right County Magistrate Shi Tingjian and the Right County Magistrate Gan Delu were not arrested. Ye Chuan became the Left County Magistrate. Now, the Left County Magistrate is finally sent down. What surprised Lin Haoming was that the Left County Magistrate and actually came down directly from Tianman Man Mansion, and it was his old acquaintance Long Xian.
Lin Haoming was also a little surprised that Long Xian came to be the left county magistrate, because after he came out of Taimiaojing, the two of them did not contact each other again. Moreover, there was a conflict between the two before. Who would have thought that time had changed, and now the two of them were going to be officials in the same county.
Lin Haoming went with his family, so the itinerary was slower. When Lin Haoming arrived in Lishi County with his family, Long Xian had been at Renxiao for half a month.
Lin Haoming did not arrive in Lishi County for most of the day, but entered the county town in the middle of the night. The reason for this was entirely because after Lin Haoming took Qiu Zhi, the people of the whole city were grateful to Lin Haoming. Lin Haoming himself was also afraid that entering the city in such a bright and open manner would cause trouble.
Compared to Lin Haoming, the couple first arrived in Lishi County three or five days earlier, and also made some preparations for Lin Haoming to come. So although Lin Haoming went to the place at night, everything had been arranged.
After arranging the family to live in Houya, Lin Haoming sent a message to the entire Lishi County, and all county officials and above were in court the next day.
When Lin Haoming sat on the lobby of the county government, it was already noon the next day.
At this time, two county magistrates stood in the left and right hands, the old acquaintance of Long Xian and Shi Tingjian, a native of Lishi County. Next were the county magistrates Ye Chuan and Gan Delu, followed by the head of the Sixth House, engaged in the commanders of each department, etc., and there were quite a lot of people.
Although Lishi County is adjacent to Xilin County, it is much larger than Xilin County. The entire Dilian City is considered a large county. In addition to these people, there are also some officials under the jurisdiction of the city. However, because there are too many people, they can only be outside the lobby.
Because of the previous handling of Qiu Zhi's case, Lin Haoming was not ignorant of Shi County, especially the more than half of the people present were newly appointed. Compared to them, Lin Haoming might know more about Shi County, but this increased the difficulty for Lin Haoming to manage Lishi County well.
As a few local high-ranking officials who did not fall, Shi Tingjian also helped Lin Haoming introduce the people present one by one.
Lin Haoming had already called out before, saying that if he wanted to trust Shi Tingjian, this person cared more about the interests of his Shi family than caring about the prosperity of the entire Lishi County. The Shi family is also the largest family in Lishi County. The reason why Qiu Zhi fell and the riots broke out before was closely related to the person and the Shi family's actions behind the scenes. Therefore, if Lin Haoming came here, he would like to pay attention to the person, Shi Tingjian.
Compared to Shi Tingjian, Long Xian is much thinner here. However, although he lived with Taimiaojing as a companion, the conflict was not resolved at the beginning, so if this person and Shi Tingjian stood together, it would be a great headache for Lin Haoming.
Lin Haoming had just waited for Shi Tingjian to introduce the crowd, and Shi Tingjian had just stood back to his position. Before Lin Haoming could say a few words, suddenly among the people Shi Tingjian introduced before, Pippen, a household resident, stood up and said, "Sir, there are important things to do when you are humble!"
"What's the point of Lord Pi?" Lin Haoming saw this person stand up and glanced at Pan Yue. After all, she is now the owner of the house.
"Sir, I still remember that when you arrested Qiu Zhi last year, you seized the property of Qiu Zhi and others who were corrupt. Now that half a year has passed, these greedy property have not been repaid. Now our Lishi County household owes a lot of Yuanjing, and now we have no money and food, and there is no way to do many things!" Pippen seemed to be kind-hearted.
When Lin Haoming heard this, he immediately frowned and said, "When I checked it, I did not take away the county government. Instead, I left some more for emergency response. Why did I have already owed credit in half a month? How much does it owe in total?" Lin Haoming asked Pan Yue directly with the last sentence.
Pan Yue immediately stood up, saluted Lin Haoming, and sighed: "The number is not particularly large. The total time crystal is 200,000, but less than five months have passed this year, and there is no Yuan crystal in the warehouse. Only some rice tickets are left to maintain daily operation, but it is estimated that it will not last long. By the end of the year, even the salary will not be paid on time."
"What's going on?" Lin Haoming asked.
"It was mainly at the beginning of the year that Lord Shi directly used the treasury's money and grain to pay back the debt." Pan Yue glanced at Shi Tingjian and said.
Shi Tingjian did not shy away at this moment and stood up and said, "Sir, this matter is indeed an order from the subordinate officials. When the emperor arrested Qiu Zhi, it was indeed a great harm. The people were grateful. However, although the people were taken away, the mess was still there. The subordinate officials couldn't bear to see that the property in the city was sealed, so farmers could not sow seeds, merchants could not open the market, and craftsmen could not start work. The teacher in the academy taught classed the same hungry children on their stomachs!"
Shi Tingjian's words were indeed touching, but Lin Haoming had experienced so much, so he could not be moved by his words. Of course, he could not deny him at this moment. So he said: "The Shi County Magistrate did this in order to establish the people of Shi County. It is indeed not wrong to seize assets. The county will report to Lord Wu to return it as soon as possible."
"Mr. Lin can urge him to return it as soon as possible. I am really the best benefactor of this county!" Shi Tingjian heard Lin Haoming's response and saluted Lin Haoming again.
