Chapter 140 No Simple Governor, Pingcang No. [-]!

Zhou Bai didn't need to stop in the states and counties passing by south of Tianjiang River, including Daizhou, Lingzhou, and Tongzhou passing northward along the Ningjiang River.

When local officials and dignitaries invite banquets, he can also evade them one by one, and some can even be resolved with a letter.

But when he arrived in Dingzhou, he had to slow down. Bei'an and Pingcang were too small and had a wider field of vision. The entire Dingzhou was the foundation for him to win the trip in the future.

During the process of participating in the Chunwei and Palace Examinations, people from all over the world gathered together, and most of them knew each other only at the state level.

For example, Zhou Bai was Jieyuan in Dingzhou, but he didn't know that he was from Pingcang County, Bei'an County.

In the process of fighting for the dragon, it is recognized that the Qianlong princes who can be recorded in the official history are at least the lords of a state.

Other tyrants who ruled one county, two counties, or even half of the state, even though they may show off their power for a while, they are only "clearing the way for the real dragon" in the end.

Even this real dragon is not the last real dragon, but just the Jiaolong who dominates Kejian's industry in Yizhou.

The so-called prosperity is also booming and death is also sudden.

Zhou Bai will not leave easily when he returns to Dingzhou this time. He needs more prestige to let the people of Dingzhou know his name and recognize him.

Once the flag is raised in the future, people will often choose to support people with greater and better reputations. In the most difficult imperial examination, it is not difficult for him to become the first Jinshi Tianren in the second class.

The key point is that Zhou Bo had to let the gentry and common people in Dingzhou know that Heaven and Man are also leaders who can bend down to join them, and even lead them to gain success.

So since he stepped into Dingzhou County at the southernmost tip of Dingzhou, Zhou Bai asked the followers on the boat to return to Pingcang to report first, while he himself gave up the waterway and turned to land.

But the government of Dingzhou, who had been watching the progress of his return to his hometown, would not be unaware.

Every time he went to a county, the county magistrate and the county magistrate would invite him to a banquet, and they would gather local tyrants to see the demeanor of heaven and man, and Zhou Bai never refused to come.

He also took the initiative to visit local celebrities to exchange ideas and ideas, and repeatedly wrote golden sentences, which became popular for a while.

On the way, Zhou Bai didn't forget to help some widows and lonely people. The money sponsored by the nobles of Shenjing City made him do good deeds.

The water vapor balance in the Tianyuan Realm was out of balance, and the Sea Dragon Kings on the other side of the boundless ocean finally broke through the limit after a while.

For a moment, the water vapor in the entire realm gathered towards the boundless ocean, and the coastline was pushed forward by more than a thousand miles. Even though the coastal people had moved inward in advance, there were still countless casualties.

Fortunately, the preparations made in advance by the Heavenly Court played a role. At the first moment when the water vapor in the boundless ocean collapsed, all the water gods and dragon gods moved.

According to their respective divisions, they transfer the water vapor from inland rivers such as the Boundless Ocean and the Tianjiang River, and evacuate them equally to other dry areas.

The Pitang ditches were all filled, and the wasteland became a lake. The densely populated area was alright at first, trying to avoid rainfall, but later on it was hard to escape the disaster of waterlogging, and the summer harvest decreased by nearly [-]%.

Relying on Zhou Bai's performance as the leader in the ancestral land of the dragon clan, the amount of water vapor evacuated in Dingzhou is really not high. With the best efforts of the Dragon King of Ningjiang, he managed to have ten sunny days in a month.

This is much better than other states and counties, which have been raining continuously for several months.

But even so, the rainy season in Dingzhou was longer than before, and grain production also decreased.

In the 320 years since Daxu, various disadvantages of the end of the dynasty have already appeared. Dingzhou finally survived the heavy snow disaster last year, and as a result, there was another heavy rain that lasted for a long time.

The already difficult life is even worse. After many years of peace, families with savings may be able to survive after emptying their homes, but many bottom-level Guizhou leaders cannot survive.

So Zhou Bai, apart from doing good deeds and helping others, also collected donations at various banquets, and went all the way to help others.

By the time he reached Dingzhou City, his charitable deeds had been known by the whole city.

Show off?hypocrite?Attract people?
Maybe some people can't understand it, but Zhou Bai practiced it personally, and the people he helped were real and beyond reproach.

On that day, Governor Lei Haomiao personally went out of the city to greet him, and not only civil and military officials, but also the whole city people followed him.

They are all here to watch the jinshi celestial beings, the first in the second class, and they are only one step away from directly ascending in the daytime. They can be called immortals in the world.

During the Daxu Dynasty, there were not a few Jinshi in Dingzhou. The last time the second-class Jinshi was 30 years ago, it only ranked 45th.

Of course, apart from watching the excitement, they also came to welcome Zhou Bai.

Sure enough, it was Dingzhou's own child. Even though he was already a heavenly man, he still did not forget the elders in his hometown, and began to help the victims as soon as he came back.

Facing the huge crowd and the extremely warm cheers, Zhou Bai could only salute repeatedly.

However, when the governor came to welcome him, he had his own soldiers to protect him, so the excited people did not rush to Zhou Bai.

For 30 years, people in Dingzhou have almost forgotten the appearance of the last celestial jinshi. He has the same jinshi every year, but he is separated from the sky.

"Mr. Zhou Bo is indeed very handsome. I think he is the reincarnation of Wenquxing, and he can inspire literary luck for me in Dingzhou."

"He's a good man. It would be great if he could be our official in Dingzhou, so that we can also enjoy happiness."

"Young Master Zhou is a member of the Heavenly Court. He is destined to be in the immortal class. How can he be an ordinary official?"

"Governor Lei is also good. He is a good official. Look at how much he respects talents, and he actually greets them in person."

"Zijian, congratulations!" Seeing Zhou Bai arrived, Lei Haomiao hurriedly stepped forward with a smile, showing a candid welcome gesture.

Strangely, the governor of a state, even in the face of heaven and man, would not be able to do this to this extent.

Then Zhou Bai saw the people around him and praised Lei Haomiao, and he knew that this was someone trying to win people's hearts.

"The governor is a low-ranking official, there is no reason for a senior official of the third rank to welcome a junior official of the seventh rank. Please don't put me on the fire."

Hearing Zhou Bai's words, Lei Haomiao took Zhou Bai's hand and said loudly on purpose: "Where is the evil, regardless of my status as a celestial being, I am ashamed that Zijian pointed out the big mistake for me this time!"

"However, I hope you can understand that the rainstorm came too suddenly, and the manpower and material resources of the state government can only give priority to ensuring the main population areas and grain-producing areas, so that fewer people will starve to death."

These few words were quickly spread by the surrounding crowd, and Zhou Bai keenly discovered that there were quite a few people who could repeat them aloud without fail.

He still doesn't understand that Governor Lei is not welcoming him in vain, but wants to use him to do good deeds to increase the authority of the governor and the state government.

"You have done well enough, and the next official is just the icing on the cake." He echoed, recalling the memory of Lei Haomiao carefully.

Sun Yucheng in Dingdong, Lu Ding in Dingxi, and even Zhao's father and son in Pingcang County seem to have a deeper memory than Lei Haomiao.

In the troubled times, all heroes and potential dragons from Dingzhou competed to appear on the stage, and everyone made a lot of noise.

Regarding Lei Haomiao, the governor, Zhou Bai could barely summarize two major events.

One is to take out the military ration bag and order the cavalry to raid the enemy's rear and win a big victory; the other is to set up a Hongmen Banquet to lure and kill the heads of several major families in Dingzhou County, and then forcefully ransack their homes to eliminate the opposition.

What else is there?
A flash of inspiration flashed in Zhou Bai's mind. Dingzhou City had never fallen until he was reborn, and the most core Dingzhou County had never been damaged.

Sun Yucheng and Lu Ding set up an army and made a big noise. They both wanted to be called governors of the state, and Lei Haomiao also sat firmly on Mount Tai.

At that time, he remembered that there was a gossip that in a short time, the channel between 33 days and the mortal world would be weakened, and the Heavenly Court could directly send troops to support it.

"The governor has ordered that the state government release relief food and distribute it to all counties!"

"The governor has ordered that refugees are not allowed to be driven away, and more work will be used for relief!"

"The governor has ordered that the year-end examination be based on the disaster relief of county officials as the core basis!"

Just when Zhou Bai followed Lei Haomiao into the city gate with big strides, the civil servants read out loudly behind him, and a huge new mansion newspaper was pasted on the notice board.

"It's not too late to make up for it, you say yes, Zijian." Lei Haomiao also turned around in time, and smiled.

"This is good governance."

In the previous life, he seemed to have done nothing, only knew how to hide in the city, and then combined with Lei Haomiao's current practice, this governor is not easy!

Zhou Bai was quite emotional, and only said: A good fighter has no great achievements.

That night, under the organization of Lei Haomiao, Zhou Bai participated in his welcome banquet and fundraising party.

From Zhou Bai's private behavior, it was officially transformed into a government behavior.

I don't know if he sensed something wrong with Zhou Bai's behavior, or what, Lei Haomiao tentatively wanted to appoint Zhou Bai an official.

Dingzhou Frontier Inspectorate, like Zhou Bai's Hanlin Editor, is the seventh rank. It is also a pure official position, but it holds real power.

In addition to having the same power as a censor to hear about things, he can also form an investigation army to inspect smuggling and thieves in the border areas.

How could Zhou Bai accept it? If he accepted it, it meant that he really seemed to have some idea, so he resolutely refused.

Such a decisive performance made Lei Haomiao feel relieved, and the next day he personally sent Zhou Bai out of the city, and sent a small group of silver flood troops to escort him.

The tall and mighty Tiaojing carried Zhou Bai galloping ahead, followed by the Yinjiao army on Jiaoma, galloping all the way north.

The following Ruinan County and Longfeng County, as expected by Zhou Bai, there is no room for him to do good deeds alone to make a name for himself.

So he simply ate two meals, and then continued on the road without much trouble.

Lei Haomiao is now only out of the instinct of the superior, filling in the loopholes in governance, not really seeing the dragon and the dragon.

When Zhou Bai formally stepped into the territory of Bei'an County, he clearly felt the aura of the second realm following him disappear.

The Governor's Mansion, study room, brightly lit by candles.

"Your Excellency, that celestial being has already entered Bei'an. According to the enshrining, he should only have one realm." A trusted adviser reported to Lei Haomiao.

Lei Haomiao leaned in front of the case, continued to deal with the accumulated disaster and official affairs, and said without raising his head: "Well, heavenly beings should cultivate in peace, even if they support the family, they should not be too much."

"Then should we continue to send people to watch? Such an outstanding man, are you not afraid that he is a Qianlong?" The counselor burned the information in his hand, and then continued to ask.

The word Qianlong may have touched Lei Haomiao's keen nerves, he put down the official document and said sharply: "Hmph, from ancient times to the present, you can see that Jackie Chan has cultivation in him? Today, His Majesty is rich in the world, what kind of spiritual stone pills are not available?" , why don't you ask the immortals?"

"The domineering dragon spirit is beyond your imagination. If he is really Qianlong, he will just solve a big problem."

"I put all my energy into finding the real Qianlong. As for Zhou Bai, even if he has any ideas, it will be difficult to achieve success in Bei'an for a while."

……

Bei'an County, this is really Zhou Bai's territory, as soon as he entered the country, people from his clan came to greet him.

And he could see the shadow of the Xuanyi guards from time to time, of course, it wasn't that the Xuanyi guards were unqualified, and Zhou Bai spotted them at a glance.

Rather, its training methods and methods were all taught by Zhou Bai, and with his strong spiritual sense, it was naturally easy to see.

The scene where Zhou Bai was welcomed by the Bei'an County Mansion was much smaller than that of the State Mansion, but most of them were sincere.

This is true of the people, and so is the county government officials.

Dingzhou has produced several celestial beings, but none of them are from Bei'an County. It is too young, and it was only established for a hundred years.

The first Jinshi who belongs to Bei'an County is still the first in the second class, what an honor.

As a villager, which one is not honored.

A state is too big, and it may not be very suitable to call the township party, but Bei'an County is suitable, and Pingcang County is more suitable.

In order to satisfy the villagers' idea of ​​getting involved in the literary movement, Zhou Bai donated his reading manuscripts for this purpose, and put them in Bei'an County School and Pingcang County School respectively.

This is not nonsense, the existence of Jinshi manuscripts can promote the rise of the public school's literary movement.

Within a few years, the number of scholars at the level of scholarly children will increase greatly, and even as long as there are students reading in front of the manuscripts, they will be supported by literary spirit.

After Jiazi, the paper will not be corrupted, and the ink writing will still be as new.

Both the county seat and the county seat Zhou Bai will settle down, social banquets are one aspect, and he also has to make suggestions to the county magistrate.

Fortunately, the county magistrate has changed, but Yinmu, the good old county magistrate, has not changed.

The celestial being who has just returned from the first place in the second class, naturally speaks with weight.

His suggestion is to stop endless flood control and drainage, but to put water storage on the agenda.

After a flood, there must be a drought!

Under the imbalance of the rules of water, frequent rainfall is not only the sharing of water vapor by the heavens, but also the overdraft of future rainfall by the heavens and the earth.

Or one year, or several years, the world will face severe drought.

According to the Ningjiang Dragon King's reminder on the road, the intensive rainfall will stop in the near future, which is why Zhou Bai gave such "absurd" suggestions.

What?The first wave of invasion from the Qingxu Realm, plus the price of a sage artifact, just made the Tianyuan Realm rain for more than three months?

Maybe even those who know the inside story can hardly believe that it was so easy.

But if the level is higher, you will see a real dead sea appearing in the desert of death, you will see that Daxu is almost everywhere affected by disasters, and you will see that the heavens are doing their best to eliminate the residual power of the Taoist weapon...

Yinmu, the governor of Bei'an County, also felt that this suggestion was absurd, but since Zhou Bai had sent a letter to fight floods and prevent waterlogging before, he reluctantly agreed to save as much water as possible.

The newly appointed Pingcang County Magistrate prevented the county government from holding a welcome ceremony, saying that he was a heavenly being and did not belong to the official order of the court.

This is someone who clearly expressed hostility, and Zhou Bai didn't say anything about his suggestion. He can only wait until he returns to the family to learn more about the situation.

Red silk was hung all over the ten miles, and almost the whole village, including the Zhou clan, came out to welcome them.

It is far away, because of Zhou Bai's return, the luck of the Zhou family has greatly increased, and red clouds are blooming over the ancestral house.

His luck is so strong that he seems to be the first among all the clans in Pingcang.
