Chapter Fifty-seven: Reminiscing about the past, I can't bear to look back
Don't think that the government is simple. The people's basic necessities, food, clothing, housing and transportation, the implementation and effectiveness of policies, and the arrangement and management of many positions are all beyond the capabilities of ordinary people.
"Then you will be responsible for government affairs." Jiang Yang nodded.
Li You also said without changing his expression: "I promise to complete the task."
Jiang Yang nodded and tapped his fingers: "You also know that the relationship between you and me is like grasshoppers on the same line. If the boat capsizes, we will drown."
"I understand." Li You nodded.
I thought I was going to end this long meeting with a toast, but I didn't expect that Ma Yan suddenly interrupted: "Sir, they are called the Department of Construction and the Department of Education. What is my name?"
"My name is Jin Yiwei." Jiang Yang glanced at him and said, "Do you still have any questions?"
"It's over without that. Be prepared well starting tomorrow and don't lose face. This is different from before. We have to be responsible for the people of Xiami County and ourselves."
It was decided that Wang Tong was in charge of the Finance Department, Ma Feng was in charge of the Construction Department, Chen Zhiyong was in charge of the Township Department, Yang Xinjun was in charge of the Education Department, Ma Yan was in charge of the Jinyiwei Department, Wen Guan was in charge of the Justice Department, Li You was in charge of the Government Affairs Department, and Tang Yingcai was in charge of the Commerce Department.
Wang Pengyue is in charge of the Military Department, and as for Wang Chen...emmmmm, he continues to go back undercover.
Although the sparrow is small, it has all the internal organs.
As Jiang Yang said something, he suddenly thought of something: "You who are illiterate, come back every night and learn to read and write with Yang Xinjun. Each of you must not miss an hour every day."
As soon as these words came out, the whole hall was speechless.
They are all men in their twenties and thirties. You can let me go up and beat people up, but let me study? Isn't this difficult for me?
However, looking at Jiang Yang's serious face, no one dared to say anything, but reluctantly agreed.
When leaving, Jiang Yang called Liu Shun.
"Aren't you busy lately?" he asked as he walked.
Liu Shun replied respectfully: "I'm not busy. The boys who have come recently are very smart, and I don't have to do anything. I just do what the adults say. Now I can produce five thousand jars of liquor every day, but it's almost reaching the limit. The county
There is no room in the Yamen’s backyard anymore.”
Jiang Yang nodded and said: "It doesn't matter, have you seen the condiments today? I plan to leave them to you for production."
Thinking of this, Liu Shun's eyes revealed a curious look.
"Sir, how are those things made? Why do they smell like that?"
Hearing this, Jiang Yang had a headache and said quickly: "Don't worry, I will teach you one by one when you are done."
"Okay, sir...there is no room in this county government office." Liu Shun fished for his head.
Jiang Yang had plans in advance: "A lot of places have been built on the new farm. There is a place bigger than the entire county government in the north of the new countryside. It will be ready in a few days. You can learn to produce in the past few days."
, we will move there and officially start construction in a few days.”
"Understood." Taking the booklet from Jiang Yang, Liu Shun flipped it over curiously, but he just couldn't understand whether you meant it was irritating or not!
When Jiang Yang returned to the house, he breathed a sigh of relief. The baby was exhausted today.
Fortunately, the harvest was good, and Ma Feng also whispered that the county government office would be fully decorated within a day or two, and you could move in at any time.
Moreover, Xiang Yong has also trained well, and his waist can finally straighten up.
As soon as Jiang Yang stepped in, he saw a familiar figure from behind. Well, it was Yang Xinjun.
"There's no need to come over so late. You're responsible for a lot of things now. You can go back and have a good rest." Jiang Yang said slowly.
This person was Yang Xinjun. He turned around at this moment, with an expression of gratitude and fear on his face. He knelt down to Jiang Yang and said, "Thank you for your cultivation."
"What are you talking about? I will only give you a chance if you have the ability. If you don't have the ability, just stay in this county government for the rest of your life. Okay, you are an official now. It's not appropriate for you to come to me every day. Leave quickly."
"Let me give you the water to wash your feet again." Yang Xinjun said while working: "Sir, let me slowly tell you about my life experience."
Jiang Yang didn't stop him. Although this little girl told him a lot, she didn't mention a word about her life experience.
I had never asked about it before, so Jiang Yang was curious about it.
"I was an ordinary child from a Baibai family in Xiami County. There were five younger brothers in the family, but there was really no food to eat, so my mother sold me to the Zhu family as a slave."
"I followed Miss Zhu's family, and that's when I started to read and write."
"It's just that Miss Zhu's family looks elegant and weak, but secretly... I didn't have a single complete wound on my body at that time. Whenever the teacher was disappointed with Miss Zhu, I would always be beaten by Miss Zhu when I returned to the Zhu family's house."
Make excuses... clean up."
"I thought it would go away like this, until I went back to visit my mother that time. My mother blamed me for not getting enough money every month, and my five younger brothers still couldn't eat well."
"Ha." At this point, Yang Xinjun looked out the window and chuckled: "But without my monthly money, they wouldn't be able to have enough to eat. Why do they still demand good food now?"
"My mother told me that day that my second brother wanted to marry a daughter-in-law and help the Yang family flourish."
"I was very happy, but my mother asked me to go back and get ten taels of silver next month. I only had two taels of silver a month at that time. How long will it take me to save ten taels of silver."
"I told my mother that she didn't care. Isn't raising her daughter just for selling money? She said that if she couldn't make money, she could go to a brothel in the county or go to Zhu's house to steal. If she didn't see the money next month, she would give it to her.
I was tied up and sold to a brothel, and she even took out the things and said she had negotiated with her to sell me for twenty taels."
At this point, Yang Xinjun didn't know if he was laughing or crying, and said silently: "I remember a book that said that tiger poison does not eat its seeds, but human poison does test its seeds."
"Sir, do you think it was wrong for me to be born a girl?" Yang Xinjun looked at him and asked with burning eyes.
Jiang Yang shook his head: "You are right. Poor and humble couples have everything to suffer from. They have no choice but no money."
"You've done enough."
"Yeah, I think so too, but my mother doesn't agree, and the people in the village also make irresponsible remarks."
This is the tragedy of feudal society. Parents' words are more important than anything else, and they must be listened to even if they are wrong.
Life? It’s all arranged by the previous generation. If you don’t listen, it’s extremely unfilial!
Yang Xinjun continued: "Yes, but when I went back the next month, the thugs from the brothel had already arrived at home, and my mother took the money in her hand without caring about my feelings."
"Is it ridiculous? I took the ten taels of silver I borrowed from the Zhu family and didn't know what to say. When I got home, I was like a transparent person, and no one cared about me."
"They are all thinking about planning a wedding for their second brother."
