Chapter 693

After sending the Magistrate Tang out, who was full of food and drink, Mr. Zhuang called the three disciples to him and asked, "Do you know where the medicinal materials used by the Magistrate Tang come from?"

The three of them glanced at each other and asked, "Didn't the county government buy it?"

"How can the county government have so much money if the imperial court doesn't allocate funds?" Mr. Zhuang said, "Huayang County is different from Luojiang County. The salaries of the officers and officials for a few months will be distributed when there is more income, who can sue their chief for a few months of salary?"

"But Huayang County can't do it. It has a lot of income, but it also has a lot of expenses, and all kinds of human relationships are complicated. No matter how powerful Tang County Magistrate is, there are three big mountains on top of him. What he can do is limited. How dare he spend money?" Selling so much to buy medicinal materials?"

Mr. Zhuang has been a teacher for a long time, and has lived in Yizhou City for many years. He is not very familiar with this kind of twists and turns, but he still has it.

Seeing that Bai Shan and Man Bao were already thoughtful, but Bai Erlang was still confused, he explained in more detail, "For example, the cost of Flower Street and Nuo Opera during the Dragon Boat Festival was basically paid for by Huayang County. Yes, don’t look at simply building a high platform, arranging floats along the street and inviting some people to play, the cost here is huge.”

"This is also Huayang County. If it is Luojiang County, I am afraid that it will not be able to handle the family. This is the financial difference between the upper county and the lower county." Mr. Zhuang said: "But the same, Yang County magistrate dares to empty The family in Luojiang County did something, but Tang County Magistrate did not dare."

Man Bao scratched his head and asked, "So where did Magistrate Tang get the medicinal materials?"

Mr. Zhuang: "All drug dealers and drug stores donated."

Bai Shan was thoughtful, "The newly discovered wasteland..."

Mr. Zhuang showed a slight smile and said, "Didn't the Ying family send someone to bring you a generous gift two days ago?"

Bai Erlang: "Yes, sir, you asked us to accept it."

"It was sealed money," Mr. Zhuang didn't say at the time, but the three of them guessed it, so Mr. Zhuang nodded, and they accepted it generously, so that Ying's family could rest assured.

Mr. Zhuang said with a smile: "I gave you dolls a sealed money, so what about the county government?"

The three of them stared wide-eyed.

Mr. Zhuang: "What's more, the county magistrate of Tang has a different identity and holds different things. If he insists on investigating, the Ying family may have a scandal. Yizhou City will not be as peaceful as it is now. .”

"So those wastelands were all given by the Ying family?"

Mr. Zhuang shook his head and said: "Not only that, I just asked Tang county magistrate, the Ying family, Lu family, Ji family, and even the Yizhou prince's mansion all vomited some occupied fields, which is why there are so many lands." wasteland'."

Man Bao let out a wow and said, "Magistrate Tang has offended so many people."

Mr. Zhuang said with a smile: "That's not true. Except for the Ying family and the Lu family, the Ji family voluntarily spit out some wasteland. The county magistrate Tang said that it was for their young son to pray for blessings. The Yizhou palace, the princess acted biased this time." , sent people to interfere with the county magistrate Tang's handling of the case many times. In order not to be impeached by the censor, it is normal to give some benefits. ', many of them planted winter wheat."

Seeing that the three listened carefully, Mr. Zhuang asked, "Do you know why my teacher told you this?"

Bai Shan: "Let's learn from County Magistrate Tang?"

Mr. Zhuang smiled and shook his head.

Man Bao said: "Sir, County Magistrate Tang is counted as a citizen in this way, shouldn't we learn from him?"

Mr. Zhuang said with a smile: "You have seen few officials, but you have also met three county magistrates, Fu County Magistrate, Yang County Magistrate and Tang County Magistrate. Do you think they behave differently?"

Man Bao said: "I like County Magistrate Yang the most."

Mr. Zhuang laughed loudly, and said happily, "Is it because County Magistrate Yang is the most generous?"

Man Bao smiled embarrassedly.

"The three county magistrates have actually done things for the people, Shanbao, as a teacher, I hope you can think about these three people carefully," Mr. Zhuang said, "There are many ways to do things for the people. Look at these three people. The county magistrate's way of doing things is completely different, if you are, how would you do things?"

Bai Shan thought for a while and said, "I think there is the willfulness of County Magistrate Yang, the decisiveness and strength of County Magistrate Tang, and the plan and action of County Magistrate Fu?"

With deep eyes, Mr. Zhuang asked, "Then do you think you can do it?"

Bai Shan weighed it carefully and then shook his head, "I can't do it, I'm afraid I can't suppress the old officials in Luojiang County, and I can't stop the strength of the Yizhou Palace. As for County Magistrate Fu, I don't seem to have his patience, but I can do it." Keep it up."

"It's enough for you to have this understanding," Mr. Zhuang said, "County Yang comes from a famous family, and he is full of confidence. Naturally, in such a small county as Luojiang County, he can do whatever he wants; and County Magistrate Tang, whose father is Zuo Du Yu Shi, as long as he walks upright and sits upright, he is not afraid of criticism. Why did the Yizhou Palace take a step back when things were settled? They are not afraid of the county magistrate of Tang, but the censor of Zuodu in the capital."

Bai Erlang asked: "Isn't this a transaction of money and power? Is Tang County Magistrate a good official?"

Mr. Zhuang smiled and was about to speak when he caught sight of Man Bao and asked her, "What do you think?"

Man Baodao: "Tang County Magistrate doesn't say anything at most, but if he doesn't say it, the Zuodu Censor may not know from other sources. What about the palace?"

Mr. Zhuang laughed loudly, stroked his beard and said approvingly, "That's right, that's exactly the reason."

Bai Erlang still didn't understand, "Since this is the case, why does the Yizhou Palace want to bribe Tang County Magistrate? They will be impeached anyway."

After thinking about it, Bai Shanlue understood, "Of course it's different. The county magistrate of Tang has the evidence, but does the Zuodu censor have it?"

Bai Shan knew everything, and said: "There is no evidence, and impeachment is just a war of words. The reputation of the Yizhou Palace is the most damaged, but it is not big. The princess is just talking about favoritism for her nephew. It is not big, it is not small. It’s a matter, the king of Yizhou made an apology.”

Mr. Zhuang nodded, "Exactly."

Man Bao: "Then the evidence is in the hands of Yizhou Palace now?"

Bai Shan thought for a while and said, "I'll give you physical evidence such as oral confession, but I won't give personal evidence, right? I always feel that the people in Yizhou Palace are very cruel. What if they kill someone?"

As soon as these words came out, all three children trembled in unison.

Mr. Zhuang said: "Don't think wildly, well, this is the end of tonight's class, you all collect your things and go to sleep."

After the three of them saluted and left, Bai Erlang asked Bai Shan in a low voice: "This is the class? Sir, he has become more and more lazy. He used to tell a story before going to bed at night."

Man Bao slapped him on the shoulder and said in a low voice, "Be quieter."

Bai Shan glanced at the two of them, and moved a little away from them.

Mr. Zhuang: ...
