Chapter 9 Today, the ceremony is held!

 No matter how distressed the old people were, and how anxious Ning Deyou, Qinong and others were, Guo An still went to Ning Daguang's home and inspected the farm tools one by one.

They chose to turn a blind eye to the relatively wealthy situation of Ning Daguang and others’ families!

At the same time, it also took half a day to understand the basic situation of Jiali where Ning Daguang, Wang Shilai and others were.

After that, Guo An took the worried Ning Deyou, Qinong and others back to the county government.

After rushing to the evening hall, Guo An left the office on time.

After Guo An left, the six clerks in the Wanping County Yamen and the heads of the three shifts gathered together for inspection.

"Ding Hufang, why did the county magistrate and you take the yellow book and the fish scale book out of the city to do something today?"

"Inspect the household registration of the fields one by one, look at the farm tools used in cultivating the land, and then ask about the conditions of each household..." Ding Deyou said with a helpless look.

"What is the county minister going to do?"

"Yes, King Yan just ordered me to wait for the states and counties in Beiping Prefecture to reclaim 10,000 hectares of fields. As a dignified county magistrate, this person did not care about such a big matter. He actually stooped down and condescended to ask about the situation of some households in Jiahu.

What use can it be used for?"

"Dinghufang, in the entire Yamen, you have the most communication with Mr. Guo County. Do you know what Mr. Guo County's intention is?"

Ding Deyou smiled bitterly, "Ding is ashamed. I was almost paralyzed from exhaustion during this journey. I had no time to think about what the county magistrate wanted to do. Maybe only he knows!"

"Hey, does this county magistrate want to thoroughly investigate the Yellow Book and the Fish Scale Book?"

Suddenly, Qinong, a clerk in the workshop, seemed to notice something and looked surprised.

"What, a thorough investigation of the Yellow Book and the Fish Scale Book?"

Suddenly, the expressions of all the scribes changed drastically, and their eyes were full of worry. They quickly looked around and gathered together again.

"Is it possible that this county magistrate heard something when he was in charge last year?"

"It's absolutely impossible. Last year, no official in the county government got close to this boss!"

"So this county magistrate wants to establish his power through a thorough investigation of the Yellow Book and the Fish Scale Book?"

"This is not right. I heard that this county magistrate seems to be from a wealthy squire family. He should know the intrigue between these yellow books and fish scale books. Moreover, he has just been promoted to the county magistrate and has no connections. How dare he do this?

Break up with us?"

"What does this county magistrate mean?"

"Are you warning me to wait?"

"It's possible..."

"..."

No matter how many officials in the county government speculate and discuss, the entire Wanping County government office has yet to have its full complement of county magistrates and governors. They are all a group of officials, and he is the only official.

Every day, Guo An takes different officials out of the city to inspect various areas.

Afterwards, I chatted with the li chiefs, Jia chiefs and grain chiefs who came over in the fields of Gagageli, which was quite leisurely!

After half a month, Guo An already had a general understanding of the entire Wanping County.

Similarly, all the district chiefs, Jia chiefs, and grain chiefs under the jurisdiction of Wanping County also have a vague impression of Guo An, the newly appointed magistrate.

However, many people still don’t understand Guo An’s actions.

Yan Palace.

After listening to Li Wang's report again, Zhu Di had a dark look on his face.

"It's been half a month, and Guo An is still wandering around in various places under the jurisdiction of Wanping County, ignoring the 10,000 hectares of fertile land requested by me. Does he still want to be the county magistrate?"

"Your Highness, it is indeed abominable that Guo An dares to ignore His Highness's orders. I will bring someone here to fetch Guo An and let him give His Highness an explanation!"

Li Wang handed over his hand and asked for the tassel.

Zhu Di glared at Li Wang below, then looked at the great monk aside, "I wonder if Master can guess what Guo An intends to do after doing so much?"
