The result of re-evaluating the person they like is that many girls have completely lost their way.
Many parents feel that their family is small and humble.
If a daughter marries the wrong person, especially into a wealthy and powerful family, she will have no way to seek justice if she suffers mistreatment.
Forget it, I'm content with a modest life, why dream about anything?
Those who should break off engagements should do so, and those who should stop their daughters from acting recklessly should do so.
And those families that aren't well-off, and who are planning to find a wife to be their slave,
After being dumped by the woman, he was extremely frustrated and sat at home cursing Zhao Minggeng, wishing he would never be able to find a wife in his life.
Zhao Minggeng had no idea that he could influence the mate selection criteria of all the girls in the city.
Therefore, unknowingly, it changed the fate of many girls, which can be considered as accumulating merit in a roundabout way.
Zhao Qingyan stayed at home, watching Xu Dongsheng busy all day long, but she didn't disturb him. She continued to run back and forth between Dawar and Kenqingcheng.
This year, Dawar and Kenchin have had a very good harvest.
Putting aside everything else, the harvests of potatoes, sweet potatoes, and corn are all extremely high.
When people have food and can eat their fill, they have the motivation and ability to develop side businesses.
Both Zhao Minggeng and Xu Dongsheng wanted to start a side business.
But people dare not take big steps until they have enough food to eat.
After all, whether you raise chickens or pigs, they all eat grain. Otherwise, they certainly wouldn't survive on just that little bit of pig feed.
Especially in the northern region, it seems there are basically no mountains, just a vast plain.
When gathering pig feed, one can only exert effort in their own fields. It's unrealistic to expect to develop animal husbandry by gathering pig feed and digging wild vegetables.
However, the earthworm breeding has been quite successful this year, and many families are now willing to raise chickens alongside the county magistrate.
Even earthworms are still meat, no matter what.
With food, the people have confidence.
We plan to plant more sweet potatoes next year.
Sweet potato vines can be eaten by humans or fed to pigs. This saves us the trouble of cutting pig feed.
Furthermore, the county magistrate also said that he wanted to marry them to make sweet potato starch and potato starch.
The remaining dregs can also be used as animal feed; there's nothing better to do.
When ordinary people have hope, their entire situation changes.
Before, the streets were full of skeletons, but now most of the people walking on the street look somewhat human.
In addition, with the border shifting outwards in the past two years, the economies of Dawar and Kenching City have grown rapidly.
The county magistrates under the same prefect were quite envious of the cities governed by the father-in-law and son-in-law.
They wished they could take his place.
Of course, it's just wishful thinking.
After collecting the grain tax, the prefect summoned the magistrates of each county.
The purpose of this meeting was simply to allow Zhao Minggeng and his son-in-law Xu Dongsheng to share their experiences in county governance.
In essence, it's about how to make money.
To be honest, this is a difficult question to answer, since their experience may not be suitable for all counties.
However, there is one thing I can share.
They were able to help the local people sell their surplus potatoes, sweet potatoes, and corn seeds.
This price is equivalent to the price of these wheat seeds.
This deeply moved the county magistrates, who praised the Zhao family's elders as righteous and benevolent officials.
People in other counties have high-yield grain seeds, so they won't starve to death next year.
Meanwhile, the people of Dawar and Kenchin began to develop side businesses.
Meat has always been valuable and precious.
Therefore, the key to making money is to vigorously develop side hustles.
Because of the management team from Zhao Family Village, they have also been vigorously breeding piglets in the past two years.
Only then, when people want to raise pigs next year, will there be a guarantee of a large supply of piglets.
At that time, Zhao Qingyan could still earn some money.
After Zhao Minggeng and his son-in-law finished sharing their governance experiences,
Other county magistrates felt that, apart from enabling the people to farm, they couldn't replicate anything else.
They knew perfectly well how chaotic things had been between Dawar and Kenqing City.
So these two are not only knowledgeable, but also highly skilled in martial arts. And not only are they highly skilled, they're also rich.
To put it bluntly, any other county magistrate who took over these two counties would not have achieved the same results as the two magistrates.
Putting aside other things, the recapture of Kenqing City,
Zhao Minggeng did play a part, after all, he was involved in the theft of the capital.
His daughter contributed the most.
Xu Dongsheng, on the other hand, trained the common people, improved their military strength, and strengthened their defenses.
These kinds of knowledge are something that bookish intellectuals like them really lack.
Furthermore, those high-yield grain varieties were all purchased by the individuals themselves, who sent people to transport them from their hometowns.
The manpower and resources required are enormous, which is beyond what they can afford.
Even though they are not exactly honest, they are still wealthy. However, they are unwilling to spend huge sums of money to do these things.
Furthermore, in order to promote the development of the county, they actually transferred people from their hometowns. Not only that, they also paid out of their own pockets to establish an orphanage.
No wonder they felt there were fewer little beggars in the county town in the past two years.
They had all been adopted by them.
Before, I was just jealous of their good fortune, but now that they've arrived, this place has become so quiet.
It turns out that someone else also contributed to this.
Jealousy is gone, replaced by admiration.
The prefect, who had previously wanted to receive tributes, also gave up on the idea.
"These two are highly skilled in martial arts and should not be offended."
They can enter the capital of the Northern Mongols as if it were their own territory, so what is my prefectural government office compared to that?
They could take my life as easily as taking something out of a bag.
Therefore, it's best to maintain good relations.
Upon considering this, the prefect's attitude towards Zhao Minggeng and Xu Dongsheng changed.
Although Zhao Minggeng was careless, his ability to sense prey was very strong because he had been hunting in the mountains since childhood.
He could sense the change in the prefect's attitude from his demeanor.
Xu Dongsheng was a keen observer.
The reason he and his father-in-law spoke in unison about the governance of the county town, as if telling a story, was to intimidate everyone, including the prefect.
After all, the moment they walked in, they were met with a show of force.
The assigned seat was at the very back, and the seating itself was rather perfunctory.
While others received chairs, they were given two simple stools.
Not only that, the stool was also covered in grime.
The father-in-law and son-in-law exchanged a glance, and Zhao Minggeng kicked the stool, breaking it in two.
"Sorry, sorry, this stool is really not sturdy."
I will go outside and buy two chairs.
Today marks the first time my father-in-law and I have visited our prefectural government office.
Little did they know that this thing in our yamen was so flimsy.
Could it be that the prefectural government office is so poor that it can't even afford a proper chair?
Zhao Minggeng said calmly.
Xu Dongsheng nodded.
"Yes, Father-in-law. I never imagined our prefectural government office was so poor. Not only is it poor, but it's also filthy."
Look at this broken stool. I reckon the old woman in the kitchen sits on a cleaner one.
Tsk tsk tsk..."
These two, father-in-law and son-in-law, really showed no mercy to the prefect.
Just kidding, those two have powerful backers. They've been slapped in the face; if they don't fight back, wouldn't they be embarrassing their backers?
