Chapter 2542 do not seek their own affairs

It is one of the two large court meetings in January. This time the main content of the large court meeting is the upcoming spring seed and the official examination that will be held tomorrow.

Man Bao didn't say anything about the two major events. She was quietly looking back at the county magistrate Guo.

The magistrate Guo lifted his eyelids to look at her, thinking that she was looking at magistrate Tang, so he poked the magistrate Tang fiercely for her.

Tang county magistrate was stabbed, and turned back to stare at him calmly, and Guo magistrate motioned him to look at Zhou Man lightly.

The magistrate Tang looked at Zhou Man.

Man Bao looked at them dumbfounded, not knowing what they were going to make trouble for.

When Tang magistrate saw it, he immediately turned his head and glared at Guo magistrate.

County magistrate:  …

At the end of the great court meeting, Magistrate Tang deliberately rubbed his waist and stood up, and said to Magistrate Guo with a half-smiling smile, "The Magistrate Guo is strong enough."

The magistrate Guo looked at Zhou Man, wondering what she meant by that look.

Man Bao coughed lightly and squeezed his smiling face away, "Guo County magistrate, are you free at noon, I have been taken care of for so many years, may I invite you to Qingfenglou for a cup of tea?"

The Tang county magistrate on the side said quietly: "For so many years, I have never seen you invite me to Qingfenglou for tea."

Man Bao hesitated for a moment and then said, "Then senior fellow will go too?"

Magistrate Tang looked at her fixedly, and hummed after a while, "No."

Having said that, he turned and walked away.

The magistrate Guo was very curious about what Zhou Man was looking for him.

"Introduce the magistrate of Xun to me?" magistrate Guo's eyes widened in surprise. Do he and the magistrate of the next county still need Zhou Man's introduction?

Man Bao smiled and said what they wanted to build the road.

The county magistrate Guo realized instantly, and after thinking for a while, he said: "We have always had a lot of labor in Wannian County. This sudden increase of a road is afraid that the people will have opinions."

He said: "After all, people from Wannian County rarely go to Yongzhou. If they do not cultivate, they will not change much for us, and they will not go far from the existing official road."

Man Bao opened his mouth wide. He didn't expect the county magistrate Guo to object. Road construction is a good thing.

"Guo County magistrate, do you know the price of vegetables in Wannian County now, and the price of vegetables in Liyang County?" Man Bao said, "Let's not talk about building roads, just more farmers from other places in the future. By-products don’t know how many people have benefited.”

County magistrate Guo smiled slightly, "Lord Zhou is right, but the goods from Liyang can't come in, they consume local goods from Wannian County. Liyang wants to make money from Wannian County. Shouldn't they pay to build the road?"

"Liyang County has been in charge of the road for a while," Man Bao said after a pause, feeling vaguely that something was wrong, so he changed the topic and said, "It's better that this is the case, since the magistrate Guo has this idea, why don't you talk to the magistrate Xun. "

The county magistrate Guo raised his eyebrows, and Zhou Man was a little disappointed that he actually reacted.

However, it is indeed feasible to build a road, it's just a matter of how many things happen on your own.

So the magistrate Guo nodded and decided to change someone to deal with it.

Man Bao breathed a sigh of relief, and poured tea for the magistrate Guo, "The magistrate Guo, please drink tea."

It is rare for Zhou Man to treat guests, so the magistrate Guo is naturally enjoying a good taste of this tea.

Man Bao hurriedly went back to the palace, and when it was time for the next office, he ran to find Bai Shan, and hummed, "They're all old monsters, and they all want to dig a hole and bury me."

Bai Shan heard her say it again, smiled and said, "The order is a big deal, if you can send it less, you will naturally have to send it less. This road can connect your fief, Liyang County, Huangzhuang and Xincheng. It's an important matter, you think A fair one-man journey, but also their own willingness."

He said: "Guo County magistrate has the upper hand in this matter, and he will naturally have some benefits. You are right not to participate. Anyway, no one dares to expand the road that you and Princess Mingda claimed. Part of it will let the two counties go to war on their own."

When Man Bao was in the middle, he noticed Guo County magistrate's plan to bargain, and he had a plan to beat her and then push her to beat Xun County magistrate, so he pulled away urgently.

She is not a local official after all, and it is not appropriate to participate too much in this kind of thing.

Local affairs are too troublesome, and she feels that things in the imperial hospital and the imperial physician's office are far less satisfactory.

Although Bai Shan's time in office was short, his contacts were no less than Zhou Man.

She has been standing at the top. She has made up her mind about matters in the Imperial Medical Office and the Imperial Hospital. She is also facing important officials such as the emperor and Wei Zhi when writing the book. It's the finer things.

It was finely divided to the point of whether the table and chair to be purchased by the Imperial Physician Office should be purchased with money, or should it be called from another department.

Bai Shanchong smiled slightly at her and said, "Ignore them for now. Our section of the road has already been ordered to serve. Are you the title lord? Do you want to take time to go to the village to see if they have any difficulties?"

When Man Bao heard this, he nodded immediately and said, "Okay, we'll go after the yamen tomorrow. Let's go down the road quickly, and we'll be there soon."

Regardless of whether the county magistrate Guo agreed to build that section of the road, anyway, the three sections of the road that the three of them had originally planned have already begun to be built.

Before the farming season had come, the magistrate of Xun was in a hurry. On the same day, he notified the chiefs of each li to go to the county for a meeting, and then selected the servants of Wuli and issued a ten-day service order.

According to the order of the Great Jin Dynasty, each household has to send one person to serve for 20 days each year. In leap years, two days are added. This year is not a leap year. Now the Xun County magistrate has issued a ten-day service order, and there will be ten days in autumn and winter.

Generally it is not a fatal thing, such as the river bank is going to be destroyed, etc., the county magistrates who are knowledgeable will deliberately stagger the busy farming season, and basically serve during the slack farming season.

It was not yet the busy farming season, so the magistrate of Xun Xun issued an order, and although the people were a little dissatisfied, they would still prepare.

The part of the road that belongs to Zhou Man is naturally used by the servants on Zhouman's food town, and Zhou Man is responsible for the expenses of the servants.

Man Bao handed over the matter to Wu Wulang and Zhou Lizhong.

It was the first time for Wuwulang and Zhou Lizhong to take on such a job, but Wuwulang had served before, so he probably knew what it was like to serve.

So I prepared food and vegetables early in the morning, and I also bought some pork to give to the woman who invited me to cook, and I watched her every day to cheer for her.

When Man Bao and Bai Shan came riding on their horses, everyone was still doing their work, and last week, Wu Lang was standing in front of a large pot with his hands waving and turning dishes.

Seeing Man Bao coming, he immediately gave the spatula in his hand to a woman, raised his feet and ran up, "Man Bao, why are you here?"

Man Bao got off the horse, looked at Brother Fifth, and said in surprise, "Brother Fifth, why are you doing this?"

Disgraced, and much darker, didn't she just see him last night?

Is it because the lights are dim at night, so you can't see black and white?

Wu Wulang grinned and said, "I just moved a few baskets of mud with them, and that's it. You see, a lot of it came out in three days."

Man Bao came over and saw that the road was widened a lot, and it could accommodate two carriages to drive side by side, more than twice as wide as before, when one carriage stumbled.

See you at 6 pm
