God-level Consort of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 668 Sending Beggars

Everyone stared wide-eyed and looked at Du He, not seriously, but curiously.

Unexpectedly, the majestic Huyi county magistrate is so young, he is just a child.

This is a founding county magistrate!

Having a good father makes all the difference!

In this era, not long after the founding of the Tang Dynasty, His Majesty Li Er was very willing to accept the title, and there were a large number of noble children in the court who had the title.

Therefore, the gold content of this title is not as precious as that of the Song and Ming Dynasties.

Naturally, everyone didn't have that much respect for Du He.

Chen Yifa took the lead to ask: "I don't know, the county magistrate asked me to wait for something important to help? But it's okay, as long as I can help, I will never refuse!"

"Yes, the county magistrate, but it's okay to say!"

People spoke sparsely.

Du He smiled slightly and said: "It is said that there are many good people in Huxian County. When I saw you today, it really deserves its reputation. Then I will be blunt. Today is the time when I take office. However, when I enter the county seat of Huxian County, But it is shocking. Have you ever known that the city wall of Huxian county has been in disrepair for a long time and is crumbling? It is so dangerous. If someone passes by, it is impossible to say that something will happen. If it collapses in the end, the family and property of you They are all in the city, so what if strong people from outside the city come in? Therefore, as the county magistrate of Hu County, I must not sit idly by and should take on the responsibility of building the city wall."

"The county magistrate really understands righteousness!"

"good idea!"

"For the benefit of the people!"

Everyone praised.

But seeing Du He's expression turned to one side, he said sadly: "...But, I have more energy than I want. The warehouse of this county government does not have half a grain or a penny. It is not easy to build a city wall. Therefore, I invite everyone to come here today because I want to discuss with you. You are all highly respected people in Hu County and loved by the people. Now that the city wall is in trouble, you can't sit idly by. Therefore, everyone who has money will pay Those who have food will give food, and those who have people will give people, how about we finish this matter? At that time, I will definitely ask for credit for everyone in front of His Majesty!"

To put it simply, I want to build the city wall, but I don't have the money, so the money can only be paid by you.

When everyone heard this, their faces changed.

If it weren't for Du He's identity, many people would scold her.

Several guys were still smiling before, but now their faces are all black.

"Master, my wife is about to give birth, so I'll go first!" An old man in his 60s stood up, said a word, turned and left.

"I have a headache, goodbye!"

"My leg hurts..."

"My cow is dying, I'll go and see it!"

I saw guys stand up one by one, find all kinds of weird reasons, and walk out without looking back.

Chen Yifa also stood up, cupped his fists and turned around to slip away, but he was half a beat too late, and Du He grabbed his sleeve.

Du He said enthusiastically: "Oh, this is Patriarch Chen, right? I hit it off with you at first sight, everyone else has left, let's talk again."

Chen Yifa was embarrassed for a while, knowing that he would not bleed a little today, he was afraid that it would be unjustifiable, so he bit the bullet and asked: "Dare to ask the county magistrate, how much does it cost to repair the city wall?"

Du He counted with his fingers and said, "Probably, it will take 30 guan."

Chen Yifa almost fainted.

30 guan?

Why don't you go and rob?
For the small broken city wall in Hu County, 20 guan can be used to build a new one.

black!
too dark.

But I heard Du He add: "This is only the first phase, and there will be more in the future. It is estimated that it will be around 100 million!"

"puff……"

Chen Yifa wanted to vomit blood.

He said with a very unnatural expression: "Master, my family is poor, and I really can't afford much money. Look, one hundred crowns, is it okay?"

"Okay... Patriarch Chen, from today onwards, you are my friend of Du He, come here, prepare food and drinks, I want to have a drink with Patriarch Chen!" Du He said with a big laugh.

Chen Yifa hastily declined: "No, no, I have important things to do, the county magistrate, let's take a step first, don't worry, a hundred guan will be delivered right away."

With that said, Chen Yifa left in a panic.

Du He touched his chin and said, "It's strange, why are you so afraid of me? Could it be that I look too vicious?"

Ma Zhou said a little speechlessly: "Money is life to these gentry. It is absolutely impossible to ask them to use the money to repair the city wall! I'm afraid I will disappoint you."

Du He smiled: "It's okay, everything is within my prediction, the more they refuse to take money, the more I like it, hmph."

Du He beckoned and called Zhang Jian over: "Zecheng, are you all ready?"

Zhang Jian nodded and handed a roster to Du He.

This roster is divided into three categories. One is those who received the letter and did not come to the appointment, a total of seven families, and those who came to the appointment but did not come to the appointment in person, a total of eight families, only five families came in person, a total of twenty families, but Only the Chen family took out a hundred guan.

Du He stared at the names and said, "No hurry, let's play slowly!"

……

Chen family.

Chen Yifa regretted it.

On the side, Chen Yifa's eldest son, Chen Xiaotian, said angrily: "Father, you are so confused, how could you be fooled by Du He? Well, now our Chen family has become a joke in Huxian County. No one else pays, so you give money." gone."

Chen Yifa said helplessly: "If you want to blame, you can only blame my legs for not walking fast. You don't know that even though Du He is a child, he smiles like a tiger. Besides, he is the county magistrate of Hu County or Hu Yi. County magistrate, if I don't agree, what should I do if he is unreasonable and beats me up? Give it a hundred guan, it's not much anyway!"

The father and son sighed for a while.

……

The Huang family.

backyard.

The Patriarch of the Huang family was sitting under a tree, on a rotating wooden chair, with two little maids pinching his shoulders, and a dog leg fan beside him.

The butler was at the side and whispered: "Master, as you expected, not many people came to the appointment today, and that Du He was so whimsical that he wanted to repair the city wall. In the end, except for the Chen family who gave a hundred guan, no one else , ignore him at all!"

Huang Meiliu laughed, and said: "Baiguan, you are sending a beggar. Huh, you said that this court is really true. When Qiu Wanjia was here, we all made a fortune together, and harmony and harmony make money. Now it is good. Qiu Wanjia Wan Jia is dead and has become a corrupt official. The imperial court sent a kid here, and he still wants to benefit the people? It's a joke, hmph, leave him alone, this kid won't be around for a few days! By the way, tomorrow, find a few people to go Incite those common people, let them go to the county government to make trouble, the bigger the trouble, the better, hum, we want to let Du He know that it is not easy to be the county magistrate of Hu County!"

"Yes! Master, that's really tall!" the housekeeper praised.

Before the words finished, a servant hurried in and shouted: "Master Huang, it's not good, it's not good..."
