Two days later, the sky was clear and cloudless.
It’s the weather when I first start working.
After getting up early for a morning run, Yingying ate breakfast and walked slowly to the county magistrate's study. After going there several times, she had memorized the route by heart.
Under the guidance of their mother-in-law, Aunt Yang, Aunt Lu, Chun Xing and Xiao Xing were busy making spicy noodles.
It is convenient to go out now, and there are four more people to help. My father-in-law and mother-in-law make spicy noodles at home in the morning, and then take Xing and Chunxing out to sell spicy noodles in the afternoon. The stall is still set up by Boss Zhou.
This was Boss Zhou's way of thanking Yingying for curing his hidden illness. In the past few days, Yingying had taught Boss Zhou how to find a doctor to give him an injection. Now she doesn't have to give Boss Zhou insulin every morning.
The spicy noodle business in the mansion was contracted to Aunt Chen's family, and they took a cut of the profits. This was what they had discussed on the day they left their citizenship.
As soon as Lady Yingying arrived at the study door, the servant Tong'an hurriedly lifted the curtain. The county magistrate had already instructed that Lady Yingying would be equivalent to the county magistrate in the future.
As soon as she walked in, she saw the county magistrate and Mr. Xu looking at a piece of paper and discussing something.
The county magistrate said: "No, if we build this new house here, this piece of land will be wasted."
Master Xu said, "Sir, we can recruit more people. This will provide enough manpower for Changfeng Town to handle floods in the future."
The county magistrate said, "But there's still too much land to accommodate more people. If we cram it full, it'll almost fill up to the size of Tong'an County."
Ahem...
Yingying watched the two people arguing so hard that they didn't notice her coming at all.
When the county magistrate saw that it was Xiao Yingying, he hurried out and was about to bow. Xiao Yingying strode over and lifted his arm, saying, "No need for these empty formalities."
Mr. Xu, the lawyer standing beside him, frowned. Was he sure he saw it right? The county magistrate wanted to marry this woman who came from a menial job?
"grown ups......"
Before Mr. Xu could finish his words, he was interrupted by the county magistrate: "You are here. We were discussing the resettlement of the people in Changfeng Town after the flood."
"Oh, is this difficult?" Yingying raised her eyebrows and continued to sit on the chair beside her.
Mr. Xu's eyes were about to pop out of their sockets. How could this servant be so rude? The county magistrate hadn't even taken a seat yet. She, she, she...
The county magistrate didn't think there was anything wrong with this handsome action, and he even called out, "Bring up the tea quickly, and bring up the snacks."
Outside the door, there were the sounds of quick footsteps running away.
The county magistrate also turned around and took the blueprint, handed it to Yingying on the table, and sat down himself.
Changfeng Town was severely damaged by the flood, and the prefect specially set aside a piece of land as compensation. On the one hand, it was used to build new houses for the people whose houses were damaged, and on the other hand, it was used to develop the economy of Changfeng Town. These people were affected by the flood and became the poorest town in Tongan County, and some of their people left.
This had a significant impact on the prefect's performance.
The county magistrate said: "After the flood, the prefect allocated a piece of land to Changfeng Town. The land is good, but Changfeng has a sparse population, so resettling the people has become a problem.
If they are gathered together, it will seem empty; if they are scattered, they will be difficult to manage."
Yingying looked at the map in front of her. How should she describe this piece of land? Actually, it was a large piece of wasteland. It had never been cultivated and was too desolate that no one lived there.
It used to belong to Xindu, and officials paid great attention to land taxes. The more land one owned, the more taxes one would have to pay. County Magistrate Xu had so many farmlands but had not developed and utilized them. This large piece of land must be infertile and not suitable for farming.
Now that it has been allocated to Changfeng, the problem has been passed to the magistrate of Changfeng County.
Originally, Changfeng Town was separated from Tong'an by Fule Village, but the prefecture directly incorporated this village into Changfeng Town. Changfeng Town has now become the largest town in Tong'an.
