"Well... let me say a few more words. They say that when a thousand people walk, one person leads the way."
"Our Lord Zhang is the head of our yamen. It is also our blessing to have a county magistrate like Lord Zhang. We should do our best!"
Huang Chenzhi stood up holding the wine glass.
"I won't mention the past, and there is no need to say more compliments."
"It's all in the wine, done!"
Zhang Bao raised his glass and drank it in one breath.
Master Huang swallowed, but closed his eyes and did it.
Only the crowd remained motionless.
"What's wrong with this?"
"Why don't you drink?"
Master Huang was a little puzzled. What happened to these guys who were usually greedy for wine today?
"My lord has ordered me to abstain from drinking for three months!"
"I can't wait to drink!"
Everyone shouted in unison.
"puff!"
Lao He who was on the side just drank the wine, and before he could swallow it, he spurted it out.
His grandma’s!
I thought you had forgotten, and you all took it seriously?
It’s over, it’s over!
Don’t even think about drinking in the next three months...
Lao He was very depressed.
"Forehead……"
"Excuse me, do you still need a Yamen servant?"
"We saw no one in front of us, so we came in."
At this moment.
Two people knocked timidly outside and came in.
"I want it!"
"Old Huang!"
"Hurry up and get organized!"
Zhang Bao was immediately happy when he saw the person who had come to sign up for the Yamen Service.
Huang Chenzhi has a black line on one side.
Lao Huang?
Why does he look like an old dog?!
It's an insult to politeness!
…
Under Zhang Bao's arrangement, the government officials apologized and paid back the money, which made people in the county government change their views a lot.
Especially after hearing that the new county magistrate has made great achievements.
There is no longer any obstruction in signing up for Yamen service.
"Ms. sir, you really have a way."
"But Uncle He will hate you to death!"
At dinner time in the evening.
Zhang Bao told Su Xiaoyue and Ma Yan'er what he had done today to deal with the yamen servants. Especially after hearing about the alcohol-free order against Lao He, he was very happy.
"Who let that old guy fail?"
"I finally got him to be a class leader, and I expected him to give me a good training for the government officials. Unexpectedly, he unleashed his natural instincts on his own."
Zhang Bao smiled helplessly.
"It would be nice if the military conscription was like this. I heard that there are very few people signing up to join the army now."
Ma Yaner said on the side.
Still a little grudge.
"Don't worry, your husband, I have a solution!"
Zhang Bao smiled slyly at Ma Yaner.
While chatting with Huang Chenzhi today, Zhang Bao suddenly had an idea in his mind. It might work if he forced the people in the county.
Ma Yaner blushed immediately when she heard Zhang Bao's name.
Zhang Bao himself didn't care, but to Ma Yan'er, he hadn't known her yet, so she had never called Zhang Bao 'Ms.', but calling Zhang Bao directly seemed a bit unfamiliar.
Ma Yan'er didn't know what to call Zhang Bao after this period of time.
Today I heard Zhang Bao blurt out that he was treating himself as husband-in-law. Although his face was shy, his heart was full of joy.
Su Xiaoyue on the side noticed Ma Yan'er's flushed face.
He poked Ma Yan'er quietly and said knowingly:
"Sister Ma, why are you looking so red?"
"Sooner or later, we will all be my husband's friends, why don't we change our tune now?"
Seeing Su Xiaoyue cover her mouth and smile, Ma Yaner put down her chopsticks in shame and pinched Su Xiaoyue's waist.
Su Xiaoyue begged for mercy again and again.
When it comes to Ma Yan'er's kung fu, let alone Su Xiaoyue, even if Zhang Bao and Su Xiaoyue are included, they may not be Ma Yan'er's opponent.
Every time there was a fight, Su Xiaoyue was always the one begging for mercy.
"Well, what Xiaoyue said is right. You can change your name in advance."
"Come Yan'er, call me sir and let me hear you."
Zhang Bao became interested when he saw the two girls playing around, and said to Ma Yan'er with a smile.
"snort!"
"You two team up to bully me!"
"I'm leaving!"
Ma Yaner is so embarrassed and angry, where can she stay?
He didn't even eat any food and ran away in a hurry.
"My husband, you are too anxious. You scared Sister Yan'er away just by looking at her."
Su Xiaoyue chuckled and said.
"What are you afraid of? If one runs away, isn't there another one?"
Zhang Bao instantly turned into a wolf, and the food on the table no longer tasted good.
after all.
Someone is pretty and delicious...
…
Night in the county town.
Although the curfew system has been cancelled, most people do not have too late a rest.
It's midnight today.
Suddenly there was a burst of rapid gongs and drums inside the county government office.
"It's not good!"
"The rebels are attacking the city!"
"Everyone, get up quickly!"
"..."
With the bursts of shouting, people in the county government were awakened one after another.
After being stunned for a while, I realized that the rebels were attacking the city again.
Zhang Bao had already arranged for government officials and soldiers to appease the people in the county government and told them to stay at home and not to come out at will to avoid riots.
Everyone was holding the things they had prepared with trepidation, anxiously waiting for news from the outside.
"Why are the rebels attacking again?"
"General Chen is not here this time, can you hold on?"
"It's hard to say!"
"I heard that the rebel army has thousands of people, and we only have a few hundred people guarding the city. Last time, it would have been impossible if General Chen had not personally brought his troops to rescue them."
"Maybe the city has been destroyed long ago."
"Yeah, it's a big deal this time. I think it's better for us to prepare early."
"Oh, but where can we escape to?"
"Everywhere is in chaos now, but our Sanhe County is doing relatively well!"
"Who says it isn't?"
"..."
Many people gathered together and whispered.
After a while.
I heard news from the city gate that after a heroic battle last night, the rebel army was temporarily repulsed.
There were basically no casualties on their side.
But I don’t know if it will happen again in the future.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
At dawn the next day.
Zhang Bao arranged for people to shout at the county government.
And fully open the north city gate.
He said that the garrison in the county government was currently short of manpower. If the rebel army attacked next time, they might not be able to defend it, so they left the people to flee for their lives.
at the same time.
We will vigorously recruit troops. Those who are unwilling to leave but willing to stay and fight against the rebels can join the army and receive training.
heard the news.
Almost most of the young and middle-aged people in the county government flocked to the recruitment office.
If it were placed before, someone would probably run away.
But now this county has improved very much. If they are asked to abandon this place, other places may not be as good.
Who would be willing to leave their hometown if they were not forced to do so?
Under this pressure, all young adults came to the recruitment office either actively or passively.
originally.
According to Zhang Bao's plan, it would be enough to increase the number of people in the military camp to a thousand.
But just over 3,000 people came to sign up.
Zhang Bao and the others wanted to recruit all these people, but there was insufficient food and grass, and they could not accommodate them.
The screening criteria had to be raised.
In the end, more than 800 people were recruited, increasing the number of people in the entire military camp to 1,500.
This time, the problem of staff shortage was solved instantly.
