Ming politicians

() The autumn harvest has begun, and it is impossible for Su Tiancheng to stay in the county government all the time. Liu Zhongji discussed his opinion with Sun Chuanting, and Sun Chuanting agreed very much. The family members of the sergeants who farmed the official fields were all watching eagerly, hoping that the sergeants could go home and help.

Besides, this kind of arrangement has the nature of humanistic care. The sergeant is grateful in his heart and is more willing to be loyal to the Jiangning camp. This is a good thing that kills two birds with one stone.

As for organizing the new sergeants who entered the Jiangning camp to participate in the autumn harvest, Sun Chuanting did not object. Most of these sergeants came from peasant backgrounds. They are very familiar. After they entered the Jiangning camp, they had no worries about food and clothing. They trained every day and participated in labor appropriately, which could also play a very good regulating role.

The consumption of the Jiangning battalion is undoubtedly huge. There are more than 9000 soldiers and more than 5000 war horses. It is not easy to maintain such a huge expenditure. Sun Chuanting also marveled at the prosperity of Jiangning County It is really not easy for the county government to maintain the operation of the Jiangning camp on its own.

Problems still exist. The salaries of Jiangning battalion soldiers are too high, which has caused some small fluctuations. This is another story.

Zhu Shenxin, who had been staying in the backyard of the county government, made a request at this time, and when she learned that Su Tiancheng was going to the countryside to check the autumn harvest, she also asked to follow him.

Su Tiancheng agreed without hesitation.

During the last chat, Su Tiancheng asked Zhu Shenxin to go out and have a look.Take a walk in the South Stable and relax.But Zhu Shenxin still didn't go out, she was really afraid of being impeached and causing trouble for Su Tiancheng, this moved Su Tiancheng very much, no matter whether Zhu Shenxin received unusual teachings or not, she was his wife , Considering for yourself, I would rather be wronged by myself.I don't want to add a little trouble, this kind of friendship, I need to cherish it. <screen, take the carriage.I rode horses with Wang Dazhi, Su Pingyang and others, but Zhu Shenxin also wanted to ride horses, so I took a carriage like this, anyway, I went down to check the situation of the autumn harvest.It's not a matter of urgency. The officials of the county government understand their responsibilities and dare not be careless in the slightest.

Knowing that Su Tiancheng was going to the countryside to check the autumn harvest, Sun Chuanting, Sun Yuankun and others.Don't worry, arrange 50 people in the scout battalion.Following all the way, Su Tiancheng couldn't refuse. He went down to check the situation of the autumn harvest. There was no private visit by micro-service, and he didn't need to know too much about the situation. <Ping, however, was very happy. They were all amazed by what they saw along the way. Zhu Shenxin didn't even know about rice, corn and sweet potatoes. If it wasn't for Su Tiancheng's patient explanation, she would definitely make a joke.

Along the way, Su Tiancheng talked with quite a few puss, and he didn't have the slightest airs.

Everyone who met Su Tiancheng was respectful and respectful, they must kowtow to Su Tiancheng, and then answered many questions, they were grateful to Su Tiancheng from the bottom of their hearts.

Su Tiancheng's main purpose was to see what was going on with the poor households in the village.

After he arrived in Jiangning County, he implemented a series of measures to stimulate economic development. It should be said that the effect is obvious, but Jiangning County is so big, with 25 households and 65 people. Among the counties in Daming, it is a typical boss. According to the current situation, a county with [-] households is called Shangxian.

More than 40% of the people in Jiangning County are farmers, that is to say, there are more than 15 farmers, and the number of households is more than [-]. It is unrealistic to take care of so many pus, so He said that during the autumn harvest season, go down and have a look, and you still need to give some support to the difficult pus.

Three days later, Su Tiancheng and others came to a village far away from Jiangning County.

Many village chiefs and chieftains, including the wealthy gentry in the village, were all waiting at the head of the village under the leadership of the county government officials.

Su Tiancheng was also straightforward, straight to the point, saying that he came to the village, mainly to see, the poorest people, the head of the village, the head of the village, and the rich gentry and rich households in the village, don't hide it, they are all from his own family. If there is any unstable factor, the officials in charge of this autumn harvest will suffer, and in fact, they themselves will also suffer. As the magistrate of Jiangning County, if the farmers below have no food to eat, they will starve to death. This is unreasonable.

The reason why Su Tiancheng cares about this village is because Su Ertong is responsible for supervising the autumn harvest here.

Su Ertong has already grown up, but after more than a year, he is very familiar with government affairs. He does his best and never bargains. As a workshop official, the things he is directly involved with are farming.

Su Ertong originally had a child in the family where Su's parents grew up. Speaking of it, except for doing things like Yixuan servants, he basically had no contact with the outside world, and he didn't understand many things. But after he arrived in Jiangning County, he studied with an open mind. I have learned from many tenants many times, and I seem to have become a soil expert in farming.

Su Tiancheng saw all of this.

Such a subordinate is what he is most assured of, so in his heart, he wants to reuse Su Ertong, and in the future, he will put Su Ertong in a more important position.

Su Ertong took Su Tiancheng, Zhu Shenxin and others straight to the most difficult family in the village.

The situation of this family is very special. The woman has three children. The oldest child is only about ten years old, and the youngest is only six years old. became disabled.

Such a family, even hundreds of years later, is also a typical poor family.

If it weren't for the constant support from the other sons and daughters of the parents-in-law, this family would not be able to maintain at all.

In rural areas, if there is a lack of labor force at home, it will be fatal. No one can do the work in the field, and no one can go out to earn money. The elderly are too old to do too much heavy physical work.

The village has taken great care of the family.

Seeing Su Tiancheng, Zhu Shenxin and others coming, the woman hurried out with the child, and the two old people also came out.

Hearing the introduction from Li Chang and Jia Shou, the people who came were the county magistrate and the county head. The woman and the two old men quickly knelt down, and the woman also knelt down if she wanted three children. <Ping went forward first, helped up the woman, Zhu Shenxin helped up the two elderly people, and as for the children, Su Ertong also helped up.

The woman seemed very panicked, and she was a little speechless. She had never seen so many officials, let alone the county magistrate. As for the identity of the county magistrate Zhu Shenxin, she still didn't quite understand.

After a few words of small talk, the woman finally relaxed, and she shed tears before she even started talking.

From the woman's intermittent words, Su Tiancheng understood that this family has received special care from Su Ertong. The family's cultivated land has been sold long ago because of her husband's illness, and there is almost no way out. Later, during the spring plowing season, Su Ertong came here and found out about the situation. He took out his own money to help the family, and organized the head of the village and the head of the family to try to find a way to rent arable land for the family to plant.

No wonder the clothes of old people, women and filial piety are still clean.

Zhu Shenxin took out a piece of silver and handed it to the woman.

This ingot of silver is a full 20 taels.

After leaving this family, Su Tiancheng made a request to Su Ertong and others.

"This kind of family is very typical. Just giving silver support can't solve the fundamental problem. We still have to find a way from the root. I think the women in the family can do a lot of things. The older children can also do a lot of things. Need to bear the burden of the family, Su Ertong, you can contact the merchants in the county, go directly to Wan Chenggui, let women and children enter the shop to do things, let the merchant take special care, housework, the elderly can still In this way, at least the family’s life problems can be solved.”

"See if there is still such a situation in the village. Count the statistics and the county government will coordinate. The county government must take into account these particularly difficult pus. Many merchants in Jiangning County are expanding their business scope. After the statistics come out, Coordinate with the county government and merchants, arrange more children from these poor families to go to the shops to do things, at least they can support their families."

"Officer Su, you are directly responsible for this matter, requiring all villages in the county to make statistics, so that people cannot be starved to death. It is not a simple sentence. There are still many things that need to be done well. It should be the county government. The yamen came to think of a way, and it cannot be pushed on the heads of the officials. Su Ertong personally took out the silver to help the poor. This is a very good practice and should be commended."

Su Pingyang shook his head quickly.

"My lord, it's right for Ertong to do this, and he doesn't need to be commended. If he can't do well, what face does he have to follow the young master to do things?"

Zhu Shenxin's actions were very generous, Su Tiancheng was a little strange, when the two were together, he wanted to ask, but before he could open his mouth, Zhu Shenxin spoke.

"Husband, I feel that this woman is really good. I don't know how much I have suffered to maintain such a large family. I really admire that I can persevere. That Su Ertong looks so good. Xiao, you are really capable in doing things. I really admire my husband, and the people around me are so good."
