"Son-in-law, County Magistrate Wang is at the mansion. I'll ask you to go back!"
In the hot summer, Su Cheng was digging a reservoir in the field with the sun, and the sound of spring flowers suddenly came from the ridge of the field.
In the past few days, in order to prepare as soon as possible, Su Cheng has also gone to the fields to work in person, just to dig a few more reservoirs.
When Su Cheng raised his eyebrows and was surprised when he heard that County Magistrate Wang was looking for him.
At this time, what happened to me?
Su Cheng put down the shovel in his hand, explained a few words to the tenant farmers, and then he got on the ridge of the field.
On the carriage back, Su Cheng asked, "Can you know why County Magistrate Wang came?"
Chunhua shook her head: "I don't know, but I think the face of County Magistrate Wang is not very good, so I'm afraid there will be no good things."
Not very good-looking?
Su Cheng narrowed his eyes and had already guessed in his heart.
It seems that nothing will develop on the better side.
It is probably about drought that the magistrate Wang can come in person.
While meditating, the carriage quickly returned to Shen Mansion.
"Son-in-law!"
As Su Cheng got off the car, the guards at the door hurriedly saluted.
Su Cheng nodded slightly to say hello, but he did not stop and headed straight to the hall.
Before entering the hall, Su Cheng heard Chen Zhennan's voice coming from inside:
"Mr. Wang is a rare opportunity to come here once. I have tried this tea. I have worked so hard to get it."
Immediately afterwards, the magistrate Wang laughed bitterly: "Oh, if it were in the past, I would naturally have to taste it."
"But now...ah, I really don't have the time to taste tea."
Su Cheng could hear that there was a bit of helplessness in the voice of County Magistrate Wang.
It seems that something is not small to make a county magistrate show this way.
With some doubt, Su Cheng stepped into the hall.
"I have met Lord Wang and Master Dad!" Su Cheng bowed to the two of them.
"Son-in-law, you are finally back. Lord Wang has been waiting for you for a long time."
Chen Zhen winked at Su Cheng in the Southern Dynasty and signaled Su Cheng to be careful. County Magistrate Wang didn't look very good.
Su Cheng replied with a look and then looked at the Magistrate Wang: "I don't know why the Magistrate Wang came here in person?"
At this moment, County Magistrate Wang had a dusty face, and a look of worry appeared on his chubby face.
This is completely different from the usual magistrate Wang and County!
County Magistrate Wang sighed: "A few days ago, I received your message and immediately contacted several other county magistrates around me, hoping that they would also prepare in advance."
"But...ah...no one wants to believe what I am saying!"
"For this reason, I personally went to Jianghe County next door and had a face-to-face conversation with their county magistrate."
"But he said that there is no big family like Shenjia Buzhuang in their county who is willing to pay, contribute people and work, and he is not willing to mobilize the whole county to dig a reservoir for a false thing."
"The final result of this persuasion is still unsatisfactory. In desperation, I can only come back first."
As soon as these words were said, Su Cheng didn't feel any surprise.
His ability to convince the magistrate Wang does not mean that the magistrate Wang can convince other officials.
On the contrary, Chen Zhennan, who was standing aside, changed his face slightly: "No way, it's useless for you to go to persuade him in person?"
"This...this, what should I do?"
Other counties do not believe it and will not prepare in advance. Once a drought comes, it will affect the fish pond.
As a person who has experienced a drought, Chen Zhennan is well aware of the seriousness of this matter.
Even if they can withstand it, once people from other counties around know that they have food, they will definitely come to snatch it.
By then, that would be no trivial matter.
"Yes, I can't help but come to find Su Cheng!"
County Magistrate Wang said with a serious look: "After all, Su Cheng has the title of Marquis, maybe this official takes you to find those county magistrates and it is of some use."
It turns out that the real purpose of County Magistrate Wang is here.
He himself could not convince other county magistrates, thinking that he might be able to shock the other party by borrowing the identity of Marquis Su Cheng.
After all, County Magistrate Wang himself chose to believe it because Su Cheng had this identity.
He wanted to do the same thing and convince other county magistrates in the same way.
But Su Cheng frowned and shook his head: "It's useless. I don't live in their jurisdiction. They are not as concerned about my identity as you, Lord Wang."
County Magistrate Wang was concerned about his identity, but because he married into the Shen family and lived in Liuhe County.
But other county magistrates don’t have this concern. They are not on their territory, so why should they care about him?
"this……"
County Magistrate Wang raised his eyebrows and showed a deep thought on his face. He had to say that he did admit that Su Cheng was right.
Now that the situation is like this, County Magistrate Wang is completely helpless.
"If even the title on you is useless to them, can we just watch them do nothing?"
County Magistrate Wang is very anxious!
Liuhe County has worked hard to do so much preparations. If there is a drought in other counties, it will be difficult for Liuhe County to survive by then.
This is his only chance to get promoted and make money. He doesn't want to be destroyed by others.
He originally wanted to use Su Cheng's identity to shock the other party, but after Su Cheng said this, he was completely panicked.
Could it be that I could only watch the credit that I received flew away like this?
Su Cheng looked at the anxious County Magistrate Wang and shook his head: "There is not completely no way to do this."
"Mr. Wang can write a letter to the prefect. If you can convince the prefect, please ask the prefect to give an order. Other county magistrates will definitely not dare to violate the order!"
Since County Magistrate Wang could not convince other county magistrates, he could only ask the officials at the higher level to order.
This world has a strict registration system. As long as the prefect gives orders, those county magistrates will never dare not refuse to obey.
"this……"
When Wang County Magistrate said this, he looked embarrassed: "It is not difficult to write a letter, but the magistrate may not necessarily believe me."
Even the other county magistrates didn't believe his words, let alone the prefect?
County Magistrate Wang deeply doubted this.
But Su Cheng smiled indifferently: "Don't worry, I will write a letter to the prefect as a marquis, and I will send it to the magistrate Wang and the magistrate Wang."
"Although I, a marquis, have no title, but it is still within the jurisdiction of the prefect, so he cannot not give this face."
The meaning of this sentence is very clear.
Other county magistrates can ignore his marquis identity, but the prefecture is different. After all, Liuhe County is also under the jurisdiction of the entire Jiangzhou.
After hearing this, County Magistrate Wang's eyes lit up: "Hahahaha, Su Cheng, you have a solution!"
"This plan is good. Come quickly and get the pen and ink. I will write a letter now!"
Of course, Shen Zhennan, who was on the side, dared not be negligent, immediately shouted outside: "Pray and ink to serve!"
Soon, County Magistrate Wang wrote a letter with Su Cheng and sent someone to Jiangzhou in an expedited manner.
But there are some things that people do not do as good as God. A few days after the letter was sent out, a drought came!
