Mixing ancient times with Taobao

Chapter 539 Popularity ([-]-character chapter)
As if intending to test Zuo Fu, the old man asked someone to refill the tea, and then, as if Zuo Fu did not exist, he carefully read Zuo Fu's report.

Zuo Fu's work report was very detailed, listing her various measures, policy plans, and employment plans when she was an official in Qiongzhou.

Even the education of officials and the support of poor households are included.To be honest, it was the first time Cheng Kegong had seen such a detailed report.The point is that this report is not only well written, but most of the things in it have been realized.

What surprised him even more was that in the past two years, Zuo Fu has also launched a targeted poverty alleviation project.After investigating the poor households in the whole prefecture, the tasks were assigned. Through measures such as official examination of officials, officials in charge of the elders, and other measures, the assessment and suppression were layered, and finally the poor households benefited and got rid of poverty.

and this……

It is an important indicator of whether you can be an official in Qiongzhou!Qiongzhou doesn't raise mediocre people, and if they don't have the ability to lift the people in their jurisdiction out of poverty, they have to go home and sell sweet potatoes!
As for poverty, Zoffe even draws a hierarchy.

Priority is given to helping the particularly poor, and there are clear indicators and standards for the poor. Officials can decide the order of helping according to prior investigations.

What surprised Cheng Kegong even more was that in addition to the poverty standard, Zuo Fu even created a level of difficulty in helping the poor.

And this level is set according to the local environment, climate, roads, and output.After all, the difficulty of falling in the deep mountains is different from that outside the mountains. Such a plan and such detailed thinking are really eye-opening.

Cheng Kegong also found that Zuofu was indeed very good at arithmetic, and he especially liked to use arithmetic and tables.

She has to make a table for every matter, and after using the foreign characters and Arabic numerals, all the data are clear at a glance.And in planning, the application of arithmetic is even more outrageous.

For example, to build a dam, the materials used, the food expenses of the people, the monthly salary, and the wear and tear are all recorded.As far as the material is concerned, there are as many as dozens of materials used in the records.In addition, even the loss of tools is also written up.

This kind of report is fascinating to read, as if I have experienced it personally, and I feel a little yearning for it after watching it.

Zuo Fu has a lot of miraculous means, in fact, until now, everyone knows that the Qingyi people are just a cover, and Zuo Fu made those weird things.

As for how it came out?Only God knows, Zuo Fu knows.

But everyone kept silent in a tacit understanding, even the emperor who was familiar with Zuo Fu was no exception.

No one is a fool, and the person concerned is unwilling to say something that is good for him, who would want to expose it when he has nothing to do?
and……

Who knows what Zoff's origin is?
Who dares to point at God and curse that Gods and Buddhas do not exist?
The old master said, respect ghosts and gods and stay away.

Although it is to "far away", the prerequisite is to "respect" first.

Even the old master can't explain things clearly, how dare they, descendants of disciples, make random assertions?Moreover, the various things Zuo Fu did, the things he brought out were really difficult to judge with common sense. Maybe he is the incarnation of God in the world?
Slowly closing the report, Cheng Kegong took a sip of his tea, nodded and said: "The old man has finished reading it, and I will report it to His Majesty."

After a pause, he continued: "Go back and rest, and wait for His Majesty to summon you. If there is no accident, you will be appointed as Governor within three days."

"in this way……"

Zuo Fu got up and bowed, "Thank you, sir."

"And do things well, don't disappoint His Majesty's expectations."

"Yes, I would like to follow the teachings of my lord."

When Zuo Fu came out of the yamen of the Ministry of Officials and walked out of the palace, the sky was already full of colorful clouds outside.And there are already many people outside at this moment, pointing at Zuo Fu's personal guards and a group of talents brought from Qiongzhou.

It took Zuo Fu a long time to go in and report on his duties, but these people stood motionless outside the palace gate, like a statue, the military discipline is so strict, it is amazing.

What surprised the people even more was that those who didn't wear floral dresses were obviously not big soldiers, but they could also keep quiet, standing still for most of the day, which is so strange!
Whether Zuofu's students or his subordinates, they all have to receive military training.One is to strengthen the body, and the other is to strengthen the collective sense of honor and improve one's own defense capabilities.

After all, these talents are treasures, and there is no room for mistakes.There is no need to train like a soldier, but formation, daily military gymnastics, and running exercises are inevitable.

So it is not difficult for them to stand in line at this moment.

only……

Although the people of Ming Dynasty are honest and fearful of officials, they have no concept of discipline.That is to say, I dare not make loud noises at the gate of the palace, if I change the place, there will be a lot of trouble.

In fact, this is not uncommon. Such a bad habit can only be improved through compulsory training or several generations of education.After all, in later generations, wouldn't people who spit everywhere and jump in line be caught a lot?
It's just that the Ming people's discipline is even worse, so seeing these people standing so neatly for hours at a time, I feel very fresh.

Seeing Zuo Fu coming out, Li Xiang immediately shouted, "Salute!!"

"Shhhhh!"

Everyone raised their hands in military salute, Zuo Fu returned the military salute and said with a smile: "Everyone relax, this is not a military camp, don't scare the common people."

Li Xiang's mouth twitched.

I thought to myself: "Young girl is really getting better at acting... It's obviously a matter of discussion!"

In order to remind some restless people, the matter of the military salute has been discussed long ago.They Zuojiajun are not cowards, to put it bluntly, they eat and drink the big girl's food, even if they rebel, they have nothing to say!
What did Daming give them?
Apart from hunger and pain, there is only humiliation left.

And Zuofu gave them clothes, food, and dignity!So, not to mention deterring the courtiers, it is no different to draw the sword to pull the emperor off the horse!

To be honest, they are not worth it for the big girl!When the emperor was in the guard, although they didn't know his real identity, they had all seen how the eldest girl treated him.Without their big girls, would the emperor be where he is today?
Was already killed by someone, okay?

so! !

Why use the emperor's mentality on their big girls? !

If you use it on anyone, you can't use it on their big girls!Isn't this ungrateful and bullying honest people? !
And the courtiers!

While their eldest girl is not at home, bully their elders!My lord, what a man that is!In order to repay the late emperor's kindness, he would not hesitate to abandon his family and career. How could someone have the nerve to say that he has bad intentions? !

This is really deceptive!

So, one of them counted as one today, and they all followed!They all stood outside the palace gate, waiting for Zuo Fu to come out.

Anyway, no one stipulated that no one could stand on either side of the palace gate, they just stood here and waited today!
If you don't show some momentum, it's really easy to bully them when they are their big girls!
Li Xiang and the others thought so, not to mention Mu Er and the others.

Zuo Fu is like a reborn parent to these wanderers, and devils are stubborn, as long as you are strong enough to make them worship you, you will definitely be very loyal.As long as Zuo Fu gives an order, they will rush into the palace to kill people now, and they will not blink.

They didn't know what happened, they only knew that the head of the family was promoted, and they were quite happy.But under Li Xiang's hint, they finally understood.

Their patriarch was promoted, but this was the result of a power struggle.From the current point of view, their patriarch is obviously enduring it because of affection...

Thinking of giving in for this reason, a group of devils felt that they couldn't bear it.

You can't bully others just because they are humble, right?So they also stood up straight at the moment, trying to raise their necks to make themselves look more majestic.

Anyway...

You can't fall into the aura of the Patriarch, or you will really offend the damned!

"This, this momentum is really scary..."

A group of civilians who watched the excitement whispered, "This group of soldiers have killed people... Look at that look... They are not people who walked out of the mountain of corpses and blood, and they would not have that look..."

"These are the personal guards of the Duke of Zhen. I heard that they are the best-paid and bravest men in the Zuo Family Army. Look at those short guys. I heard people say that Duke Zhen captured a group of Japanese pirates in Qiongzhou , forcibly transformed them into my beloved men of Ming Dynasty, and they usually do dirty work for Lord Zhen Guo."

"What nonsense are you talking about?! How could Duke Zhen do dirty things?! Duke Zhen is famous for his uprightness!"

"I'm not talking nonsense! Someone in my family had contact with maritime merchants. I heard that Qiongzhou was in short supply of labor force. Lord Zhen was holding money everywhere and couldn't recruit enough people. Later, someone proposed to go to Luzon, Dongying, and North Korea to buy people. These Japanese pirates are Those who do this for Lord Zhen Guo... I heard that these Japanese people are very cruel, and they will be arrested if they can't buy them, even their own compatriots will not be spared. Duke Zhen is not as kind as we thought."

"You fart! I think you have ulterior motives to slander Duke Zhen here! Duke Zhen is for our people, so you won't do such things!"

"Hey, why are you swearing at people? What I said is true, otherwise how could Qiongzhou be so good? They have built all the roads in Qiongzhou, if not..."

"Stop talking! You grandson, let me beat you to death! If you dare to slander Duke Zhen, you are with those bad and corrupt officials!"

"Yes, yes! I heard that Lord Zhen is going to take over the position of governor, I was so happy that I didn't fall asleep all night! I hope this big blue sky is coming, and we will have a good life in the future!"

"Yes!"

A group of people began to look forward to it, "I have been to Changzhou, it is really a paradise on earth! I hope that Lord Zhen Guo can be as upright in Yingtian, and kill those greedy gentry, evil officials and corrupt officials!"

The common people were discussing in low voices, and when they saw Zuo Fu turning over and passing by, they all knelt down and saluted.

Zuofu waved his hand at the people and shouted loudly: "Fathers, don't be too polite. In the future, I will be an official here, and I will have to ask for your help! I am going to build roads, and I will issue a notice when I take office. You all have to come!" "

Everyone's eyes lit up!My heart is excited!

Working for other officials and lords is suffering, but working for Duke Zhen is definitely a blessing!
When Zuo Fu was still in office in Changzhou, many people from his hometown went to Changzhou to find a living.After those people went, they didn't want to come back, and within a few years, they bought properties in Changzhou.When they returned home to visit, they talked about the treatment of Changzhou civilian husbands.

If you don't mention the monthly salary, you will be hungry for the food!

These days, eating enough to eat is more important than anything else, this is enough!

Although life in the capital has gradually improved over the past few years, everyone is still not well-off. If they can get the same treatment as Changzhou civilian husbands, wouldn't they be born?

For a moment, the crowd was excited, and they boldly asked: "My lord really wants to build roads?!"

"It's natural."

Zuo Fu grabbed the rein and said with a smile: "I have written the memorial, and I plan to submit it when His Majesty summons me."

"Then, will His Majesty agree?"

"Your Majesty loves the people like a son, how can you not agree?"

Zuo Fu smiled and said: "Building bridges and paving roads is good government, and His Majesty and people of insight will definitely not object."

The people cheered, "Thank you, old parents!"

Got it!
Before taking over, the old parents shouted first!

Sure enough, the wishes of the people are very simple, and they will recognize whoever makes them live a good life.

Some people of insight were secretly shocked when they saw this scene.

Unexpectedly, Zuo Yunshu's popularity has reached such a level. Before taking office, a bunch of people are looking forward to it.

It seems that even if the new governor is not powerful in the court, with the support of the people, he may not lose!

Now Yingtian is the capital of Ming Dynasty, and the horizons of the citizens here are wider than that of ordinary citizens.Moreover, there is a drum to ascend to heaven in front of the palace gate, which is more courageous than ordinary people in other places!Since historical records have been recorded, who has ever heard of the people of Gyeonggi taking the lead in rebellion?It's not that it's difficult to be an official in Gyeonggi, and the emperor will be alarmed by any disturbance, so he enjoys more fairness than other places.

Zuo Furuo really repaired the roads in Nanjing City, and installed those street lamps, not to mention, she really has the ability to fight with those big bosses after winning the hearts of the people!

Thinking of this, a group of people became a little expectant.

This zoff...

How will it be done?

Zuo Fu smiled and bid farewell to the people, and rode to Jiangdongmen on horseback.

The news of her coming back had already been told to her father.And these people haven't found a place to live yet, so it's appropriate to temporarily settle in Jiangdongmen.

When we arrived at Jiangdongmen, Zuo Dayou was already waiting there.When father and daughter met each other, they didn't have tears in their eyes, but they immediately went to work, arranged everything properly, and hurried home.

Although Zuo Dayou is still loyal to the king, it is also an instinct to protect his family alone.Therefore, there is no time to be angry and sad right now. What their father and daughter have to do now is to protect their relatives and friends from harm!
After returning home, Liu Runiang had prepared a large table of food. After the family had a happy meal, people from the palace came.

"Your Majesty wants me to enter the palace now?"

Zuo Fu was a little surprised, "You want to drink with me?"

Gao Yong nodded again and again, "Your Majesty said...he has to deal with government affairs during the day, and only has some free time at night...The old man said that every time you come and go in a hurry, it has been a long time since we have a good reunion, so I want to invite you into the palace now, he I have prepared delicious food and wine, and I want to have a good reunion with you..."
