    After coming to this strange dynasty, for so many days, Gu Xiuyuan walked around the entire courtyard inside and outside the Gu mansion for the first time today. After looking around, he found that there were some places in the mansion because the servants did not clean them in time, so  Just a little outdated.

    Gu Xiuyuan took a deep breath, and thought to himself: "From now on, this will be my home, the root of my roots in the Kansai region, and the loyal and honest servants inside will also be considered my family."

    Yesterday, Uncle Ze put all the books in the mansion into his study according to his instructions, and also carefully put some complicated and trivial books aside, and then talked to himself about the related industries in the mansion.  Because it was getting late, Gu Xiuyuan saw that Uncle Ze was getting old, so he simply sent Uncle Ze to end the conversation. Before leaving, he told Uncle Ze that all the servants were called to wait in the hall today, and he had something to say.

    At this time, Gu Xiuyuan was going to the hall, where everyone had been waiting for some time, Gu Xiuyuan counted the time, after all, as the master, the majesty should not be lost, just like at this time, because the master of the family must not take the lead  Waiting for the servants in the hall, this will give them the illusion that the master is easy to deceive and easy to deal with.

    After some detailed discussions with Uncle Ze yesterday, the Gu family has more than ten hectares of good farmland, more than thirty hectares of bad farmland, and some other industries are pharmacies and wine shops in Huating County.

    According to the account book, at present, all the properties of the Gu family can probably generate thousands of dollars in income every year, but it is impossible for the thousands of dollars to enter the Gu mansion so easily.

    All the people in Huating County have to take care of it, and they donate money to the farmers on weekdays, as well as money for the seven or eight servants in the Gu Mansion every year.  Calculated in a mess, there were only about a hundred or so people who actually entered the warehouse.

    "I believe that Jia Yan and the old housekeeper have already told you what should be said, so I won't repeat it too much. I called everyone here today to tell you.  To have enough ability to stand firm in the troubled times of the West, now, we need to rely on everyone's joint efforts."

    When Gu Xiuyuan came to the hall, he saw the old housekeeper and seven or eight servants standing there waiting for him.  So I briefly said this strange but very motivating sentence.

    The group of people were stunned for a moment, and then they replied in unison under the leadership of the old housekeeper: "You don't have to be like this, Eldest Young Master."

    "No, no, no, I'm telling the truth. In the next few days, I'll go to restaurants and pharmacies to arrange some plans. Then the old housekeeper will have to help."

    Gu Xiuyuan shook his head. It seems that the ideology of this feudal society is not easily shaken, and it will take more time to change slowly.

    All in all, there is still not enough time.

    "A few days ago, Jiayan's funeral was bothering everyone. I will ask the old housekeeper to share the reward with you later." Gu Xiuyuan felt that there was nothing to say, and left here after saying these words at last.  But still haven't finished watching it.

    When I left, I could clearly feel the joy of the people below. After all, if there was reward money, anyone would be happy.

    As soon as Gu Xiuyuan arrived at the study, the old housekeeper chased after him, saluted Gu Xiuyuan and said, "Da Lang, there is someone in the front hall, who is said to be from the office." The words were full of worry for Gu Xiuyuan.

    "It's nothing, Uncle Ze, don't worry, Xiuyuan will take care of it." After hearing the old housekeeper's words, Gu Xiuyuan was touched in his heart, but then comforted him.

    Those who should come will come sooner or later.

    Gu Xiuyuan thought they would come back a few days later, but he didn't expect to be so impatient. It seems that the county magistrate is not without scruples, but it's a pity that he still can't grasp what he is scruples about.

    Gu Xiuyuan walked and thought about how to deal with this difficult problem. After all, if this matter is not handled properly, it will definitely be very troublesome. At least, the Gu family will not have a good time if they are still in Huating County.

    "But Mr. Gu's family?"

    As soon as Gu Xiuyuan entered the front hall, the yamen servant bowed his hands and saluted him, and then asked.

    "Exactly." Gu Xiuyuan also returned the gift to show respect.

    The yamen servant secretly heaved a sigh of relief after hearing the affirmative answer. Although he pretended to be casual, he was still discovered by himself.

    As expected, it seems that something went wrong!

    "I don't know if there is something important for the guard to find the boy? The boy should be prepared." Gu Xiuyuan tried to get some words out of the yamen servant.

    "Call me Li Er. I don't know what it is. It's just the county government.??My lord asked me to come over and ask you to come over.  "No matter how you say it, Li Er is also a person who works in the county government, so he understood what Gu Xiuyuan said when he heard it, so he took advantage of the situation and played Tai Chi.

    Gu Xiuyuan didn't feel any embarrassment about being found out, and he was still chatting with him here, anyway, he just didn't take the initiative to mention going to the county government.  Li Er on the side was calm at first, but later on he became more and more anxious. When he came out, the Master Registrar had told him that there was no need to invite the eldest son of the Gu family to the yamen.

    But right now, looking at the situation, Mr. Gu has no intention of going at all.

    In fact, Gu Xiuyuan was thinking about the information of the master register of Huating County. The upper county of Huating County can't be counted, so there is no need to mention Wang County. It is just an ordinary small county in the border town of Weizhou.  Whether it is money, food or manpower, it can barely support Weizhou military guards.

    It is barely considered a middle county in Kansai, but it is estimated to be a lower county outside of Kansai, so there is no county captain in the county government.

    Therefore, the rank of the county magistrate is from the eighth rank, the county magistrate is from the ninth rank, and the chief book is from the ninth rank.  The chief bookkeeper, Wang Wenzhong, is over 30 years old. Compared with the two, he can be said to be "young and promising".

    I heard that he used to be the Sima of Weizhou Prefecture in the Weizhou Prefecture Yamen.  As a result, the important figures in the village plummeted and came to Huating County to be the master book.  Although on the surface the difference between the two was only half a level, but it was this half level that made him suffer for more than ten years without being promoted.

    Those who were like him in the original Weizhou Prefecture, Biejia and Changshi, were all promoted to other places, either as the magistrate of Shang County or the magistrate of Zhong County.

    Suddenly, Gu Xiuyuan felt as if he had grasped some information, very important information!

    In Gu Xiuyuan's original impression, Wang Wenzhong was an elegant gentleman, otherwise he would not have been able to pay attention to him. Although his official career was not going well, he would have had some thoughts in the past few years, but now he has been keeping his own place in the past few years, and rarely heard about him.  Bad reputation, on the contrary, the county magistrate is often criticized.

    Thinking of the defeat of the Song Army a few days ago, and the invitation of Master Wang at this time, the doubts in Gu Xiuyuan's heart were finally resolved.

    (Except for a small number of counties in the Song Dynasty, most counties were graded as: Wang County with more than 4,000 households, Song County with more than 3,000 households, Shang County with more than 2,000 households, Zhong County with more than 1,000 households, and Zhongxian County with more than 500 households.  The above is the middle and lower counties, and less than 500 households are the lower counties, which are checked every three years. I am afraid that some people will not understand the complexity, so I directly subtracted the tight counties and the middle and lower counties, so that it looks like  It is more intuitive.)
