Chapter 167

When the various neighborhoods in Lulong County gradually became lively.

Zhou Xingzheng, with his back hunched over, was sitting in the large mezzanine on the right side of the government office hall.

All the banquet tables originally furnished in this mezzanine room have been removed and replaced with rows of tall tables and chairs.

According to the five-cao division, each cao's ministers, historians, and clerks who handle documents sit separately.

At this time, I was busy working at my desk.

Not that no one reacted at first, sitting down and looking indecently, but as each task was assigned, no one had the energy to complain about these trivial things.

On the contrary, various Cao and Shuzuo began to feel the benefits of tall tables and chairs.

At least the soreness in the back and numbness in the legs when working overtime can be alleviated a lot.

Zhou Xing sighed, with two huge green and black circles under his eyes, he lifted the strong tea on the table and took a sip.

In the specially made enlarged tea jar, the tea leaves floated and floated.

I don't know if it's his misunderstanding, but since the young lady moved to Lulong, she treats them less and less as human beings.

The senior officials and junior officials all stay in the county temple on weekdays and only go home on holidays.

I have to work almost until the middle of the month every day before I can go back to rest.

When Zhou Xing left Lulong, he had the good fortune to visit the first large-scale chicken farm in Guzhu Manor, where the chicken coops were arranged in rows like this.

"Cheng Zhou, I'll give you some tea."

An official slave standing in the corner of the room immediately brought out a brass kettle from the small room separated from the mezzanine, and diligently filled up the tea cup on Zhou Xing's desk.

Although the physical constitution of people in this era is better than Gongsun Yan's perception, he is worried that these senior officials and junior officials will not be able to cope with overtime work.

After Gongsun Yan came to Lulong, he not only changed the meals in the county temple from two meals a day to three meals a day, but also added a tea room behind the hall.

There are official slaves on duty at all times, and hot tea and filling snacks are always available.

In addition, the large kitchen of the county temple also has a night cook who can order late night snacks.

As long as you are willing to work overtime.

Even if Gongsun Yan has the help of building modules, he can save a lot of planning.

However, if the Luronce project is to be completed according to standards before the autumn harvest, it will still require a lot of effort.

Lulongsai, as a border area, has always been the place where prisoners were distributed. Later, Guzhu Village was attached to Ni Bubu and his family members.

Furthermore, the people who participated in the recruitment of workers in Lulong City were a mixed bag.

How to coordinate the food, drink and housing of these people and clear all the obstacles to instability before the war is approaching is not an easy task.

After Gongsun Yan arrived in the county, Zhao Yun personally led his troops to Lulong Pass to take charge.

The cunning and wicked heads hanging on the passes are replaced with new ones every day.

Only then did he finally trade for peace with killing.

The rest includes the allocation of grain and grass, workers' accommodation, temporary household registration and resettlement of recruited workers, etc.

Every place needs the hard work of the senior officials and junior officials in these government offices.

"Oh, thank you." Zhou Xing thanked him subconsciously and handed over the big teapot in his hand.

It wasn't until the hot water was filled that he woke up from a dream.

No, he won't take a bath tomorrow. He just planned to drink the remaining tea and then go back to rest.

Zhou Xing looked at the tea jar that was filled with tea again and hesitated for a moment.

Otherwise, check the list of local residents submitted by the clerks again?

Zhou Xing looked again at the pile of paper documents placed in the upper right corner of the table.

Nowadays, Caihou paper has completely replaced bamboo slips in government offices. Even with the establishment of the new chamber of commerce in government offices, this kind of paper has gradually appeared on the desks of some people.

When he was in Guzhu, Zhou Xing had seen this kind of light writing instrument. At that time, he thought it was a novelty that the young lady brought back from Lingzhi City.

But when I arrived in Lulong, I was told that this thing was actually produced in Lone Bamboo Manor?

There are also those grains that are completely wrong in quantity and quality!

As Zhou Xing, who knew the Guzhu family best, no matter how busy and slow he was, he noticed something was wrong.

However, as Mr. Tian in Lone Bamboo said, you will know something when you need to know it.

Before you know it, even if you want to go bald, you can't find the answer, so why bother yourself?

Zhou Xing slowly put down the teapot, glanced at the documents on the desk again, sighed resignedly, and reached out to pull out a pile.

"Zhou Xian Cheng." A hot-tempered little official came from outside the door, waving a piece of paper in his hand.

Seeing this man, Zhou Xing felt a toothache.

In the office, other clerks and clerks who were still writing calculations also turned their backs.

If you want to vote, this young man who walked in will definitely be elected as the most annoying person in the Lulong County Temple Office, the first place.

Especially at this time, I saw that the construction drum was about to ring when work was finished at the door. At the time of retreat, this man appeared here, and the document he waved in his hand was more like a reminder to announce the bad news.

"Zhou Xian Cheng." This young man ran in all the way, his robe sleeves unseemly rolled up to his shoulders, exposing his arms, and beads of sweat hanging on his forehead.

In the hall, petty officials like this should have taken off their shoes and stepped forward, but now that all the rules have been broken, no one cares about it.

"What's the matter?" Zhou Xing put the official document back in his hand angrily, "Jiang, Shu, Zuo!"

He gritted his teeth every word, showing the resentment in his heart.

This little official was originally a talkative and greedy person, which was not a big deal, but since he was transferred to work as a clerk for the young lady because of his meticulous work, he has become much more disgusting.

What comes to this room to convey is rarely good news.

Jiang Shuzuo, who had been running all the way to the office, stopped in front of Zhou Xing's desk.

"Fortunately, I caught up!" Jiang Shuzuo's increasingly paler and fatter face revealed a simple and honest smile, "It would have been troublesome if he had already retired."

He seemed to be aware of the malice that permeated the hall because of his words, and the many minor officials who glared at him, with a hint of hesitation on their faces.

"Did I disturb you all?" Jiang Shuzuo bowed his hands and said, "This is actually Jiang's fault."

Although his attitude was good, it did not make the expressions of everyone in the hall relax.

Over the past few days, this person's attitude of actively admitting his mistakes and never repenting has made everyone feel numb.

"Tell me about it! What's going on?" Zhou Xing said impatiently, but he still sat upright, raised the teapot and drank half of the teapot, ready to continue working.

No matter how much you complain in your heart, you still have to take the orders of the master’s wife who summoned Jiang Shuzuo seriously.

Jiang Shuzuo chuckled and handed over the document with the county seal in his hand.

"The county monarch has an order to clean up and repair the arsenal in preparation for the storage of new ordnance materials."

Although Zhao Yun was in Lulongsai, the seal was given to Gongsun Yan before leaving.

There was Zhou Xing inside, and Xiahou Lan took over the city defense outside, and finally escaped from the complicated government affairs to train troops in the camp.

There is also Zhang Zhang, a man of merit who is in charge of the defense of the county and temple.

Even though he never appears in front of everyone, everyone has guesses about the identity of the mysterious man who gives orders in the official temple.

There have been objections and dissatisfactions in private, but there is no evidence for them, and secondly...

"By the way, there is one more thing." Jiang Shuzuo took out another slip from his sleeve, "The summer solstice is approaching, and the county monarch intends to distribute two sets of summer shirts and two ends of cloth to each of the officials and junior officials in the county temple.

"

It's not that they are willing to turn a blind eye and indulge, it's because that person has given too much.
