Rising: Ten Thousand Years Chapter 402: : Jinchang County

Jinchang County.

Jia Liping has been here for more than a week.

And Jinchang County has also become one of the important promotion places for agricultural machinery.

When Li Zhen's convoy arrived, Jia Liping had already led the staff who had arrived in advance to receive them in Jinchang County in advance, and the princess of Jinchang County was also accompanying him.

"Master Li, I have been waiting for you for a long time. Let me introduce you, this is the Princess of Jinchang County, Zhang Haiyang."

Jia Liping stretched out his hand, and a chubby middle-aged man was introduced. He rubbed his hands on his body excitedly: "Hello, hello, Dean Li, I have been admiring you for a long time. I am Zhang Haiyang."

Li Zhen shook hands with him, and asked as he walked towards the county mansion of Jinchang County: "What's the situation in Jinchang County now?"

Zhang Haiyang quickly said: "Go back to Dean Li, now Jinchang County has a total of 5,000 mu of grain fields."

Li Zhen asked: "How many people are there? Tell me about the conditions of each family of the population."

"Return to Dean Li. There are a total of 100,000 households in Jinchang County, with a total population of more than 450,000. Among them, there are 80,000 poor households."

Li Zhen frowned: "There are 100,000 households in the county, and there are 80,000 poor households?"

Zhang Haiyang wiped the cold sweat off his forehead, not daring to answer.

Li Zhen said again: "I don't blame you for the large number of poor households. What I blame is how you did it. There are so many poor households with a population of more than 450,000. Why did you only plant 5,000 mu of grain fields? Can 5,000 acres feed 450,000 people?"

Zhang Haiyang said with a bitter face: "It's hard to feed. But the government issued a policy, saying that there are subsidies for farming, and the agricultural tax is also reduced. But he just doesn't increase the grain fields."

"The reason is that most of the elderly are lonely and widowed?"

"That's right, Dean Li. Please... quickly, make tea."

Walking into the county mansion, Zhang Haiyang hurriedly called someone to make tea, saw Li Zhen sitting down and then stood aside and continued: "There are many old people and many lazy people. There is no way to do this."

Li Zhen asked: "Lazy?"

"Yes. The old man has no labor force, so it's fine if he can't grow many fields. But Jinchang County is poor, so under the vicious circle, more and more laboring people feel that farming is meaningless, and they can't raise land. Living on their own. So some people became lazy, and simply waited for death to steal chickens and dogs. Some people were willing to speculate, not to farm, and to do business that fooled people."

"What kind of business is fooling people?"

"I also just transferred to Jinchang County. The number of criminals in Jinchang County is a bit scary. The cells were full at one time. The main reason is that some people feel that farming is tiring because of poor mountains and rivers. On the contrary, I couldn’t support a family. I ran out to rob the road, and there were horse thieves organized everywhere. Or they were cheating foreigners. Some people from other places came to Jinchang County, and some speculators used scammers to cheat money and scam money , extorting money. There are also some people who steal some public property from the government and resell it. They can do anything.”

Li Zhen frowned, feeling that the situation in Jinchang County was a bit complicated.

In some places, people are poor, but they are ambitious.

In some places people are poor, but because they are poor and poor for a reason, they become lazy.

But this place in Jinchang County, because of the folk customs, is a bit tough. So the poor, the poor are not only justified, but the poor are even more vicious.

The common people cannot be blamed for this. It's just that the environment affects people's hearts in the overall situation.

Li Zhen has a headache: "Go on."

Zhang Haiyang burst into tears suddenly. The crying was earth-shattering, extremely miserable, and his face was full of grievances.

This wailing voice made both Jia Liping and Li Zhen cry dumbfounded.

Lengzi Qi mentioned Zhang Haiyang, and said in a low voice, "Why are you crying? You are a sheriff, why are you crying?"

The poor fool also wondered, he had never seen an official shed tears.

Sitting on the ground, Zhang Haiyang wiped his tears and complained again and again: "I have been transferred to Jinchang County for only two months, and I really can't do it anymore. I, Zhang Haiyang, have been an official since the Kyushu court. I have been a county guard all the way. I have been a county guard in Dongzhou and a county guard in Southeast State. I didn’t have time to experience the new Dongzhou created by Master Li, but I experienced the rebellion and war in Southeast State back in time. .

But Rao was not so difficult when the Taiping Army in the southeast state revolted. At least the Taiping Army is reasonable, isn't it? At least the people under the rule are still honest, right? But ever since I was transferred to Jinchang County, I haven't slept peacefully all day. I have been an official in so many places, and I have been mediocre all the way. I have long since given up hope to go further, but...you can't bully me like this, it's too much. The people here are really too much. I have been to so many places in New Kyushu, but I have never seen a place with such bad customs. "

Li Zhen was a little stunned: "Princess Zhang, please tell me if you have any grievances."

Zhang Haiyang cried for a while and wiped away his tears with his sleeves: "When I first came to Jinchang County, because I came from the southeast state. At that time, the overall situation of the new Kyushu was decided, and the governor of the southeast state gave me this county. Shou was equipped with a steam car. I brought my steam car to Jinchang County. It was a public car allocated to me by the state. As a result, the second day after I arrived in Jinchang County, I found that one of the wheels was missing.

At that time, the whole county was investigated. It was a farmer who unloaded my wheel at night, stole it, and went to the sales store of Xingtu Group to sell it as an accessory. After I caught him back, I learned about his family situation. There are two old ones in the family ~IndoMTL.com~ and a young one below, and his wife ran away. He is the backbone of the family. I couldn't bear to let him in. I just let it go after a bit of education, and I thought about paying for it myself if I lost a wheel.

But it's not over yet, everyone thinks I'm a bully. On the third day, a large group of poor people in the county blocked me in the government office. They held up banners and chanted slogans, saying that Jinchang County is so poor that officials can still drive. Said that I must be corrupt, the conscience of heaven and earth, that was allocated to me by the state, which county owner in Quanzhou in Southeast Prefecture did not allocate a car? They kept calling me poor, and forced me to donate my car, and then turned it into money and sent it to them. "

Lengzi Qi was furious when he heard this: "Isn't this an obvious robbery?"

Li Zhen is also stunned, is there such a thing? It's really knowledgeable, it seems... the new Kyushu always has this kind of strange law, the people are not afraid of officials, and they don't know what the reason is.

The richer the place, the more afraid the people are of officials. The poorer the place, the less the people are afraid of officials.

It used to be the same in Zhashui County, the unruly people who dared to beat up the county guard. Where are you going to reason? Moreover, this kind of troublemaker is poor, and he is a hobgoblin. Even if he relies on the law and does not blame the public for blackmailing you, there is nothing you can do about it. You can't send troops to suppress it, can you? In times of peace, very few courageous officials dared to send troops to suppress the common people.

Zhang Haiyang cried: "Then what can I do? I can only sell the cars allocated to me by the state, and then distribute them to those poor families. But this is not over...others who didn't get the money started to make trouble again He said that I don’t treat people equally, that those are related households. He said that the benefits are only given to related households, and he wants to go to the state capital to sue me. What can I do?"

Jia Liping; Li Zhen and others were dumbfounded.

I never expected that the folk customs in Jinchang County have become so bad.
