The big man has a living father

Chapter 52: Weird Order
Liu Che: "It's strange. Since you have so many things you want to do, why do you refuse to join the government?"

Huo Hai couldn't say much to Liu Che.

In fact, Liu Che thought Huo Hai was lazy and didn't want to be an official.

But in reality, who doesn’t want to be an official? Huo Hai refused to be an official because he thought it was useless to be an official in this feudal dynasty.

If it was just for power, then wouldn't Huo Qubing's brother Huo Guang's brother be powerful enough? Huo Hai just wanted to do his part to improve their lives and save the lives of his eldest and third brothers.

Of course, Huo Hai was indeed very lazy. For example, when it came to extracting Eucommia gum to make wheels, he clearly knew the detailed steps. But when the pharmacist failed repeatedly, Huo Hai did not choose to do it himself. Instead, he asked the pharmacist to replicate the experiment and find the problem by following the steps.

Finally, the pharmacist made Eucommia gum, but it took more than ten days.

If Huo Hai does it himself, he can do it in one go.

But Huo Hai didn't want to be exhausted, so he resolutely chose to just talk about the solution and never do it himself.

Apart from penicillin, Huo Hai basically did not check the progress of the projects proposed. He just needed to give some methods to his followers and then wait for the goods to be delivered. It didn't matter how long it took.

The only test products for penicillin are still moldy foods in the greenhouse.

Because some colors represent molds that can be fatal, Huo Hai would go to see the doctor frequently to prevent himself from being poisoned by his patients.

After watching Liu Che leave, Huo Hai began to think about the problems in Chang'an County.

In fact, it is too easy to defeat Shi Qing.

Huo Hai never thought about PK with Shi Qing.

Huo Hai had no interest in managing a county of a feudal dynasty, even if it was a county in the capital.

But Huo Hai is interested in using this place as a test field to promote technologies and concepts that can make life better and make people richer.

And even if he only considers himself, Huo Hai can only consider making efforts to promote business.

There is no other way as to why we have to make progress in business first.

If Liu Che is not allowed to taste the sweetness, he will start the method of squeezing the land that has been implemented for two thousand years.

By then, even if you have money, you can only hide it at home and won’t be able to take it out and use it.

Anyone with money would become a target of the court's lackeys.

In addition, even if you are not specifically targeted, the five-zhu coins alone would cause anyone's assets to shrink by 90%.

Huo Hai is here to be a playboy, not to be a hard-working person.

Huo Hai calculated that Chang'an County was roughly the area from the north gate of Chang'an City to the countryside where there were no more neighborhoods, about thirty miles long.

To the east it ends at Chidao, and further east of Chidao is Wannian County.

To the west, it extends diagonally for a long distance, with a large piece of fertile farmland in the middle. Further southwest is the mausoleum town where the nobles live.

This area is about four hundred and fifty li.

The so-called "luli" is a closed residential area.

The lili in Chang'an City followed the Zhou system, with five households to one lili, and four lili to one clan. Because there were five people in one household on average, the population of a lili in Chang'an City was 500 people.

But it’s not like that outside the city.

Outside the city, the number of households is doubled. Each li has 500 households instead of 25! Of course, this is only the case in the good areas near the city wall.

The areas far from the city walls were restored to being small neighborhoods.

And they are distributed rather sparsely, and everyone still has farmland to plant.

This totals 450 villages and has a total population of up to 200,000.

This is not just a lot, it is a very exaggerated number.

Originally, the registered population of Chang'an was only 500,000.

The current registered population of Chang'an County is less than 20,000.

But this is the capital, and in fact a large part of the outer area no longer belongs to Chang'an City. It's just because it's close to Chang'an that people are willing to live here.

But now...it belongs to me.

After waking up from a good sleep, hundreds of thousands of people under Youfufeng's rule who did not have Beijing household registration became Beijing masters!
The residents were probably asleep at this point, and they didn't know that a great thing had happened to them.

……

The people in Chang'an City are very well-informed.

The matters concerning Chang'an County and Wannian County have not yet been formally approved by the court.

It has spread everywhere.

Everyone on the streets was discussing this matter.

After all, the two counties, with a total population of 400,000, have obtained Chang'an household registration!
In the past, when relatives came, we had to politely say "it's just a suburban county".

Now people are just saying, "Yes, I am the master of Chang'an! Do you understand the value of this household registration?" I don't know when Huo Hai's self-proclaimed title of "young master" became popular.

Even many old bachelors have felt that their destiny is calling them.

But besides being excited, everyone was also discussing the reasons why they became masters... The famous scholar and Prince's tutor Shi Qing was competing with the second son of the Huo family.

The east and west are divided by the Chidao Road to see who is higher.

For a moment, everyone was waiting for the two to take office.

After the court session that day, Shi Qing took several Gongyang school disciples he had selected and recruited minor officials and went to Wannian County.

When Shi Qing arrived, he took away the five great carts of information from Youfufeng Ji An. Don't think that there is a lot of information about the five great carts. Ji An himself was a famous Huang-Lao Taoist, which is what later generations called a religious bull nose.

This guy's main characteristics are: one, he never tells lies; two, he is quiet and does nothing.

He had offended Emperor Wu many times, let alone other officials.

His quiet and inaction management style does not mean doing nothing, but not disturbing people. On this basis, he is still happy to petition on behalf of the people.

The information he took away was all important information. Although the five trucks were small, they were very important.

If Shi Qing understood the information about the five major vehicles thoroughly, he would have mastered Wannian County.

As for another pile of information on display at Youfufeng Prefecture, no one came to pick it up for three whole days.

Seeing that it was about to rain, even Ji An, who was a calm and inactive person, could only ask the clerks to put the documents away.

During these three days, the people of Chang'an County were waiting impatiently, but the new official never took office.

In fact, Huo Hai was even more excited than Shi Qing. At that time, Huo Hai had already gathered his troops and was ready to let Zhao Po Nu take his men with him to go out and show off.

Huo Hai's goal is to make all the people in Chang'an County remember him and see him show off his power.

As a result, before he could even leave the house, he was blocked by Huo Qubing.

Huo Hai then remembered that he had promised to prepare a method of elementary education and elementary education textbooks for his elder brother.

So he just stayed indoors and started writing a book.

As for things like taking office, it’s not important at all.

Since I can't pretend to be cool anymore, I'll just do it for my own sake.

……

In the Chang'an County Government Office, Yi Shuo was sitting upright.

Yi Shuo didn't know why a medical officer like him came to the county government to work, but he came anyway as ordered.

This sitting lasted for two days.

Although Yi Shuo was only twenty-seven, he had many disciples, all of whom were accompanied by one of them. One of the disciples whispered, "Teacher, we were not... kicked out of the palace, were we?"

After she reminded them, the others realized what was happening. One of them said, "Could it be that the nobles in the palace think that our level is not good enough and they don't want female medical officers and doctors anymore?"

Before Yi Shuo became an official female medical officer, the female medical staff in the palace only did one thing, which was to induce lactation.

After Yishuo took them under her wing, she showed them the possibility of career advancement.

With the passing of the Queen Mother a few years ago, this possibility had become very slim.

And now, it seems that even the slightest possibility is gone.

At this moment, Tian Jue entered the government office, saw Yi Shuo, and bowed: "Excuse me, are you Doctor Yi Shuo?"

Yi Shuo hurriedly stood up and bowed: "General..."

Tian Jue interrupted: "Hey! Don't shout nonsense, I'm just a lieutenant, one step away from becoming a general, I can't shout nonsense."

"My name is Tian Jue. The new Chang'an Lieutenant, Lord Huo Hai, asked me to deliver an order."

Yi Shuo was puzzled. He heard that the position of Chang'an Junior Lieutenant was worth 1,000 stones, while the position of this Colonel was worth 2,000 stones. So who was commanding whom?

However, Yishuo still took the white paper handed to him by Tian Jue.

Opening the white paper, Yi Shuo frowned.

The newly appointed official of Chang'an County did not mention any policies related to people's livelihood. Instead, he proposed a lot of strange things that every household must abide by.

Among them, the first one is the most shocking.

The first one was written in vernacular Chinese.

All the outer walls of the neighborhood were demolished.

Tear down the outer wall?
The second one is even weirder.

It is prohibited to urinate or defecate anywhere, and spitting anywhere. Violators will be fined.

The third rule is a supplement to the weird second rule. Among the 450 villages, the ten villages that rank last in implementing the second rule will be given a black flag with the slogan "Shame on you for your poor hygiene."

Yi Shuo was stunned after reading only three of them without even reading the rest.

Does this look like official documents? Does this look like county regulations?

He glanced at Tian Jue and said, "Captain Tian, ​​do we really want to carry this out?"

Tian Jue: “Of course.”

At the Huo Mansion, Huo Qubing looked at the book in his hand and asked, "I heard that your first priority in managing Chang'an County is to... strictly enforce hygiene?"

Huo Hai nodded: "Science, education, culture and health, the other three cannot be caught for the time being, so we can only catch the fourth one."

Huo Qubing: "Are you sure they will obey? Also, with your salary as a lieutenant in Chang'an, you want to mobilize two hundred of my soldiers? Not to mention paying them, is it enough for them to eat?"

Huo Hai smiled: "Eat? Someone provides meals, three meals a day. They just come to work after they are full."

Huo Qubing glanced at his brother with a complicated expression, then closed the book in his hand and asked: "Should this thing be spread?"

Huo Hai shook his head and said: "Wait a little longer, let the soldiers learn first, when the time is right, I will launch it in Chang'an County."
