Chapter 2890 New Governor

Lieutenant Dong County felt that it was finally his turn and felt that the sky in Beihai County was much bluer.

Fang Xian Cheng knew nothing about this. When the county magistrate went to the countryside, he had to deal with various chores in the county government office. Master Song still asked for leave and did not go to work.

Bai Shan didn't force it. As long as he asked for leave, he would approve it and then take back the authority of the chief clerk. He would be responsible for part of it and leave the other part to Fang County Cheng.

Seeing Bai Shan being so stubborn, the Song family couldn't help frowning. Chief Song didn't keep his temper and ran to find Mr. Song, "Uncle, Bai Shan is so calm and relaxed, he won't really build a new salt farm, right?"

Mr. Song said: "The new salt field is only half built, and it has been there for two years. It will take a long time to completely complete it, let alone make a big pot of salt. No one has customized a large pot in the county recently.

pot."

He added: "And I have asked my helpers to check the nearby mountains and forests. No one has cut down the trees. The trees on the two mountains in Xiaowa Village are not big enough to make firewood."

He sneered and said: "When the tree is cut down, it still needs to be dried. Even if it is split, it will take ten or twenty days to turn into firewood. I don't believe he can boil the salt before July."

At the latest in early July, they must send a batch of official salt to Qingzhou City in exchange for the county government's finances.

Mr. Song said: "Keep waiting, you don't have to worry about it. The position of chief clerk is yours. Even if he takes care of it temporarily for a while, he will still have to come to invite you after a while."

As long as the people in the salt field listen to them, Bai Shan will not be able to boil salt, and the county government's finances will be in their hands.

Moreover, if Bai Shan, the county magistrate, failed to pay the official salt required by the governor's office, he would be derelict in his duty if he did not fulfill his duties. Even if he had a good relationship with Magistrate Lu, the matter could not be covered up.

Because the things behind it are complicated.

If the official salt is not in place, there will be a gap in other places where Beihai County has always provided official salt. Salt involves people's livelihood. People in this world can not eat meat or even vegetables, but they cannot not eat salt.

After listening to his uncle's analysis, Master Song felt slightly relieved.

Mr. Song said: "There is news from Qingzhou City, saying that the governor has been replaced. The new governor will arrive in Qingzhou City soon, but we are not well informed, and our relationship with County Magistrate Lu is not so good. We don't know who the new governor is.

who."

In fact, the new governor had already arrived, half a day before Master Song said these words.

After receiving the appointment, he immediately went to the capital, talked with the emperor for two days, visited some old friends, and then immediately went to Qingzhou with his official seal.

He did not inform Qingzhou of his itinerary in advance, so the county magistrate did not know until he entered Qingzhou City Road, and he hurriedly took the officials to greet him.

Originally, when a new governor arrived, magistrates from all counties would come to greet him.

But Guo Cheng did not tell everyone in advance. Magistrate Lu could only plead guilty with a worried look on his face, "When the governor came, the officials and others were not far away to welcome him. The magistrates of other counties are not in Qingzhou City at this time."

Guo Cheng smiled and said, "Don't blame them. It's the time to harvest wheat and transplant rice. Things are busy, so I deliberately didn't notify them."

Guo Cheng said with a smile: "Isn't the Dragon Boat Festival coming soon? The busy farming season will be over by then, so I'll call them over to meet them then."

The county magistrate responded and welcomed Guo Cheng into the governor's office.

Because he had obtained the information about Governor Guo in advance, Magistrate Lu behaved very generously and appropriately. As soon as he arrived, he immediately handed over the power of Governor Guo's office to him, and on the surface, he completely cut it off, acting like I was the only one.

You look so confident.

This made Guo Cheng very satisfied and began to take over the affairs of the Governor's Mansion.

Although Magistrate Lu had delegated power, Guo Cheng still felt his influence in Qingzhou City and the Governor's Mansion.

All in all, Magistrate Lu has been in charge of the governor's office for half a year, and during that half-year, almost all the officials in Qingzhou, big and small, were wiped out, and the officials below could not help but rely on Magistrate Lu, who was the only surviving one.

And Magistrate Lu was also smart and capable. When Governor Wang failed to take office, the officials and people in Qingzhou were actually a little scared. Magistrate Lu was running around all day, not only to appease the magistrates of various counties who had just taken office, but also to appease the magistrates who had just taken office.

We must also appease the people.

Therefore, he has great influence in Qingzhou.

Even though Magistrate Lu has tried to reduce his presence as much as possible after Guo Cheng took office, influence is really something he cannot control.

He can't expose his shortcomings just to gain Governor Guo's trust and lower his prestige among his colleagues and the people, right?

That's not humility, it's stupidity.

So he inevitably caught the eye of Governor Guo.

However, County Magistrate Lu was well prepared for this situation. He even told his confidants: "Fortunately it is Magistrate Guo who came. If it had been the Inspector Wang in front of us, our life would have been even more difficult."

Although it is easier to fight against the king and assassinate the governor, if you can't even maintain basic facial feelings, Qingzhou's officialdom will be almost finished.

Magistrate Lu's plan is not limited to Qingzhou, he also wants to go further and expects a greater future, so Qingzhou must be managed well.

Guo Cheng's pattern was naturally not limited to Qingzhou, so although he was dissatisfied with the various things that County Magistrate Lu did beyond his reach, he still maintained superficial harmony.

But this did not mean that he would tolerate everything, so he asked the master he brought with him, "Which of the seven counties under Qingzhou can compete with Yidu County?"

The master thought for a while and then said: "Qiancheng and Bochang are good."

Guo Cheng thought for a moment and said, "Send someone to inquire about the relationship between the two county magistrates and Lu County Magistrate, and send an official letter asking them to come to Qingzhou City to see me immediately."

You'll know what a person is like when you see him.

Although Bai Shan and Zhou Man were in Beihai County, they still heard some of these things vaguely.

The source of the information mainly comes from County Magistrate Yu Lu and Liu Gui.

In order to strengthen the cooperative relationship between the two parties, County Magistrate Lu wrote many letters to Bai Shan during this period, of course, private letters.

Anyway, Qingzhou City is not far from the county seat of Beihai County. It is no problem to go back and forth three times a day. The boy who delivers the letter starts running!

The news about Liu Gui is much smaller and more gossipy.

After hard work, he finally opened a small restaurant outside the Fuxue School in Qingzhou City and hired a cook. Since it had only opened not long ago, he needed to live in Qingzhou City to manage it. Once the people in the restaurant behind him became familiar with it, he would have it.

It’s time to return to Bai Shan.

Although Bai Shan doesn't need him around.

Because the restaurant is not far across from Fu Xue, their customers are mainly students from Fu Xue. Some students are well-informed and will quietly discuss political affairs.

Especially since Guo Cheng is the newly appointed governor, basically seven of the ten topics involve him, and the remaining three and two belong to their wife Zhou Man alone.

The medical department is located in Beihai County, which makes some students feel bad about Zhou Man, thinking that she is selfish and does this for Bai Shan.

"Shouldn't Qingzhou Medical Office be located in Qingzhou City?"

At this time, Guo Cheng finally remembered this matter, "Shouldn't Qingzhou Medical Office be located in Qingzhou? Why did it end up in Beihai County?"

?? Last night, I had a little cold, so I didn’t add more.
