Love Your Husband

Part 111 - 120

In Pingcheng, 99% of the people are farmers.

How rich can farmers get if they rely on the weather for their livelihood?

In short, this is an ordinary and unremarkable small county town where he can't even find any local specialties.

Really, there are no specialties in Pingcheng.

Anything that is available here is also available in the next county.

Therefore, in the past two years, all the New Year gifts he gave to relatives and friends were purchased from the provincial capital.

The local products in Pingcheng are really not good enough.

As the magistrate of a county like Pingcheng, it is harder than climbing to the sky to achieve some political achievements that will impress the emperor.

In the past three years, he has been trying to get bald, but he has not come up with any good ideas.

If you don’t have outstanding political achievements, you won’t be able to get promoted.

He himself had no background. He was born in a poor family. His family had been wealthy in the previous dynasty, a family of neither size nor small. But after experiencing wars and when the prosperous dynasty was established, his family completely declined.

With no political achievements and no connections, in order to avoid being out of the emperor's sight, he originally thought that this year he would be ruthless and use his ancestral property to build relationships with officials in the Ministry of Personnel, so that he could choose a county next year where he could show his abilities.

But now.

Pingcheng, a plain and ordinary city, finally has some local specialties worth showing off!

Just by selling vermicelli, the people of Pingcheng can become twice as rich as before or even more.

This is his political achievement!

After spending two years in the Hanlin Academy, he could probably figure out the emperor's thoughts: a prosperous people and a safe country.

Whether the people are rich or not is an invisible criterion for evaluating officials.

Therefore, he still had to use his ancestral property.

Because according to the regulations of Dasheng, the county magistrate is transferred every three years. If he wants to continue to stay in Pingcheng, he must rely on connections.

As long as he can stay, it doesn't matter if he spends some ancestral inheritance. With the help of vermicelli, he can impress the emperor.

We must support Sanliu Village’s vermicelli business!

County Magistrate Jiang gave the order, and soon the village heads of hundreds of villages in the county came to the county government.

Of course, for villages that are far away, it would take a whole day and night to get there even by ox cart, so it would be slower.

But it doesn't matter.

This did not affect County Magistrate Jiang's announcement of Sanliu Village's purchase of starch to the village chief who arrived early.

The taxes were collected twice a year by yamen runners in person in each village, so the village chiefs had close ties with County Magistrate Jiang.

Now that County Magistrate Jiang has announced the vermicelli matter, these village heads were surprised and delighted.
