Chapter 1683 Countless people are waiting to see Shao Yunduan's excitement
As soon as the governor of Guanzhou took a break, more than half of the clerks working in the yamen that day asked for leave.
Even the yamen runners came in only a few numbers.
As it happened, three groups of people came on this day to file lawsuits.
Shao Yunduan ordered his men to keep the complaint and wait for him to read it carefully before going to court to hear the case.
These people were instigated and bribed by Guanzhou Cheng, so how could they be willing to leave like this? They even tried to cause trouble.
But Shao Yunduan was the prefect, and there was no rule that the case had to be brought to court for trial immediately after it was received. It would be within the rules even if the case was brought to court ten days or half a month later.
Unless there is a murder or a large-scale fight with serious casualties.
But no matter how bold Guan Zhoucheng was, he dared not openly cause a murder case. Otherwise, Shao Yunduan would not let him go, and he might not be able to keep his position as the state chief.
Shao Yunduan had a tough attitude. Anyone who dared to make trouble again would be considered disturbing the court and would be taken away and beaten in public.
As a result, the trial of the case was put on hold for the time being.
Guanzhou Cheng sneered. This Lord Shao has a bad temper and is tough enough! But what's the use of this? Although Anzezhou is a special place, there are still many trivial official duties. With so many people missing from the government office at once, how many days can he hold on?
At that time, if he doesn't beg me again and again, I will definitely not agree to help him.
Even if he is the prefect, so what? In the territory of Anze Prefecture, the title of prefect is not very useful!
For a moment, countless people were waiting to see Shao Yunduan's excitement.
Shao Yunduan ignored those clerks. The most important thing right now was spring ploughing. He had already made preparations secretly for this matter, so he didn't have to worry about it. Everything else could be put aside.
The imperial court has always adopted a laissez-faire attitude towards Anze Prefecture. It is considered good enough that someone is willing to come here to serve as an official. As long as there is no civil unrest or rebellion, or numerous lawsuits resulting in deaths, everything else is a small matter.
What Shao Yunduan wants to capture in one fell swoop now is the chief constable of the criminal department and the third shift of yamen runners.
There are few other clerks who are irreplaceable. Although this place is not very good, there are always a few scholars who can be found. Even if those clerks resign, there are people who can replace them.
It's just that at the beginning, there will be a shortage of manpower, and everyone will have a hard time. But slowly, this situation will naturally improve.
In comparison, he paid more attention to the yamen runners, constables and captains.
This is the armed force he can control, and it must be his own people.
In other words, it must be controlled by his own people.
Zheng Sangge, Wu Guan, Yang Mu, Sun Bai, Sun Qian and others are all ready-made recruits.
With this idea in mind, Shao Yunduan immediately issued official documents and ordered the yamen runners to deliver these documents one by one to those yamen runners who had asked for leave or even did not even bother to ask for leave, ordering them to be on duty at the yamen the next day.
If you really have compelling reasons, you must come and explain it in person and apply for leave again.
If I don't come tomorrow, it would be a blatant disrespect to my superiors and I am no longer suitable for the office in the provincial government. Lord Magistrate, please show mercy and give me two extra months' salary. I'd better leave now!
Guanzhou Cheng naturally knew about this at the first time and sneered repeatedly.
Lord Shao is also interesting. He ignores the clerks and takes out his anger on a few yamen runners! Oh, I guess he knows that the clerks will not listen to him, right?
