The Time Traveler Is A Bit Sweet

Chapter 20

"Qingnu." A familiar voice with a gentle smile sounded in Bai Jin's ears.

This is not only the nickname of the original owner, but also Bai Jin's. He has never said it clearly, but it is just a big name used in dealing with people in modern times, and he has long had a familiar and unfamiliar feeling with nicknames.

The reason for choosing such a name is to implement a simple idea: a cheap name makes a living.

Being shouted out like that for no reason made my back and tail vertebra feel numb.

Shame, awkwardness, and all kinds of weird emotions came out.

Bai Jin blushed for a moment, then calmly returned to talking and laughing, "Where did you get that nickname?"

He didn't remember his mother ever calling him that in front of Zuo Anli.

Zuo Anli spoke vaguely: "I heard it in the court yesterday."

Bai Jin didn't care, pulled Zuo Anli and told him some things he discussed with his mother yesterday.

When they returned home this time, Li Zheng took the initiative and replaced the village chief who only cared about his own selfishness with another respectable middle-aged man, whom Bai Jin was not familiar with.

I think it is necessary to convince the villagers, otherwise the villagers will make a fuss again.

His mother sold the few fields owned by her father, and when she established a female household, the court would not give her the fields, and would also relieve her of the hardship of hard labor.

But don’t think this is a good thing. For ancient working people, fields were their lifeblood, and their ancestors had been digging in the fields for generations.

Suddenly, as soon as a powerful person comes to power or a businessman gets rich, the first thing they do is to enclose land and become a big landowner.

Bai Jin persuaded his mother not to live in the village anymore. Their family had a deadly feud with Mr. Bai's family, and they also had discord with the village chief's family.

This Xiaohe Village is related by old friends, how can it be better for his mother to stay as a weak and helpless widow?

He knew that just from Zhang's own perspective, his mother would definitely be reluctant to part with the family fortune.

If you start from him, the persuasion will be very powerful.

Bai Jin told Mr. Zhang that he would definitely live in the county town in the future, so he might as well buy a house as soon as possible and settle on it now. He thought that Magistrate Zuo didn't seem to be a person who had done nothing. He might be able to double the value of their small, remote county in the future.

Mrs. Zhang couldn't help but be amused, thinking that he was naive and that success in his career was not as easy as what a kid like him said.

Bai Jin had said so, and Mrs. Zhang would not hold on to the money. It was a pity that the money she just got had to be poured out before it was warmed, which made her feel bad.

Having finished talking, Bai Jin said to Zuo Anli simply: "I will go to Yahang during my lunch break to accompany my mother to look at the house, so as not to delay my afternoon schoolwork."

Zuo Anli pondered for a moment: "I will tell you Let's go together."

"Isn't this good?" Bai Jin said.

Zuo Anli said calmly: "What's the matter? I always have to learn about people's livelihood on the ground. Just talking on paper is useless."

Bai Jin thought to himself that he saw really clearly. He deserves to receive elite education at a young age. Sons of powerful people.

"Okay, you must remember to tell Madam at noon, lest Madam think that I have led you into trouble." Bai Jin slapped his head and boldly demanded.

Zuo Anli was not angry, so he let him be arrogant and said, "Okay." After

they listened to Mr. Liu's lecture in the morning, Bai Jin said the matter without speaking carefully.

Liu Shan became interested and asked Mr. Liu if he could go with him.

Mr. Liu nodded and agreed.

They also heard about Bai Jin's achievements in suing the evil uncle yesterday, and couldn't help but sigh that Magistrate Zuo was a fair and impartial official, had courage in solving the case, and was also methodical and orderly in handling the case.

Mr. Liu had previously served as the apprentice of the former county magistrate, but he really couldn't stand the idiot's way of doing things, so he had already resigned and left.

There was nothing wrong with that person. The superior officer gave him a low rating and then moved to another place to be a county magistrate. Some people will continue to work in one place until they retire because their political performance is not outstanding!

Of course, this situation only applies to remote and poor counties, where the money cannot be extracted and people have to pour money into it.

Many officials in lower counties can only talk and issue decrees from above.

As long as the people have a stutter, they can live tenaciously, and disputes will be resolved by the village chief and Li Zheng. As long as it's not a serious matter like banditry, rebellion, or natural or man-made disaster, most of them won't be able to cause trouble.

Officials had to sacrifice themselves for five buckets of rice and muddle along, and their lives were quite comfortable! Meeting someone who was looking for money from the people made the people live in dire straits.

Mr. Liu sighed: "Such difficulties are inevitable! We are serving the country, so we can only offer some superficial opinions to the adults."

Bai Jin and Zuo Anli looked at each other, not knowing how to comfort Mr. Liu. After all, this kind of It's not something they can interfere with. It's the adults who have a headache.

"Sir, why should you be anxious? In my opinion, it is better to do your part and do your part. Everything depends on people. You should deal with the matters at hand first and have a clear conscience." Bai Jin said sternly.

Mr. Liu was surprised by his transparency, "That's true."

Zuo Anli and Bai Jin are both extremely intelligent children, each with their own opinions. They can be regarded as worthy of being able to teach talents for Dali. .

Looking at my own child Liu Shan, he seemed drowsy. As soon as he mentioned that he could go out to look at the house, he immediately stood up and looked around.

Mr. Liu suddenly felt his hands were a little itchy.
