Wei and Jin cooks

The heads of each family looked at Zhao Ming eagerly, trying hard to hear clearly what their uncle and nephew said.

However, they spoke too quietly, and they tried hard for a long time and heard nothing.

So I could only look at the faces of Zhao Ming and Zhao Hanzhang, trying to see something on them.

It would be nice if they had a fight...

Although the internal strife in the Zhao family was not good at this time, they were all a little panicked after seeing Zhao Hanzhang's methods in the past two days.

Soon, Zhao Ming turned around and came over with Zhao Hanzhang. The heads of each family immediately looked away and stood still.

Zhao Ming stepped forward to say goodbye to them, saying that he had something to do and would go back to Wubao first.

The family heads were stunned and asked hurriedly: "Zi Nian, this Xiping County is now leaderless, and it is a time when everything is in ruins and is waiting to be revitalized. Aren't you going to stay and discuss it?"

Zhao Ming said: "Isn't Hanzhang here? If you need anything, just ask her. Here in Xiping County, she can act on Zhao's behalf."

When everyone heard this, they fell silent.

Zhao Hanzhang stood aside and smiled at them, and everyone shuddered.

Everyone watched Zhao Ming leave with eager eyes. Zhao Hanzhang waited until they had seen enough of reluctantly leaving, then turned sideways and said: "Everyone, please take a seat in the room. Today my team is still cleaning up the corpses and helping the injured to heal. If we can’t spare any manpower and the city gate is destroyed, it’s time to build it.”

Someone among the family heads came to his senses and asked, "Are there enough medicinal materials?"

Zhao Hanzhang recognized him and knew that his family was in the medicinal material business, so he said: "The two drug stores in the county have been taken over. I, Mrs. Zhao, also sent a batch of medicinal materials, but there is still a lot missing. Mr. Qian has some good ones." Any suggestions?"

The other party knew the elegant meaning of Wen Xian, and he specifically mentioned that he also wanted to sell Zhao Hanzhang well, so he said: "My family is somewhat involved in medicinal materials, and I still have some savings at home, so I can help with some."

Zhao Hanzhang immediately expressed his gratitude on behalf of the people of Xiping County.

When other families heard this, they had to bow their heads under the eaves thinking of Zhao Ming who had left, so they donated generously.

They discussed from morning to afternoon. Each family not only donated materials, but also claimed several tasks for rebuilding Xiping County. When they walked out of the county government office, the heads of each family had complicated expressions, feeling both nervous and full of confidence.

When they walked out of the county government gate, they did not separate immediately, but walked together in twos and threes, close to each other.

"Did Zhao Sanniang take away Zhao Ming's power on her own, or did Zhao deliberately push her to do things to deal with us?"

"What do you think?"

Another person said: "Looking at her arrangements today, do you think she will be pushed out by Zhao to block the arrow?"

"It's really amazing. Even if Magistrate Fan were here, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to do this," the person who asked the question said, "According to her arrangement, Xiping County will be able to stabilize in less than three days."

"She is so powerful, but I feel very uneasy."

"Yes, I heard that he is only fourteen years old. He is so wise and wise, he deserves to be the grandson of Zhao Changyu."

"Fortunately it's not a man."

"I feel sorry that she is not a man..."

Each family had different feelings, but since they met Zhao Ming and learned from Zhao Ming that Zhao Hanzhang could replace Zhao in Xiping County, all affairs in Xiping County fell on Zhao Hanzhang.

Zhao Hanzhang was not tired and was very busy. She summoned Li Zheng from all sides the next day. If anyone unfortunately died in the battle, he would either recommend a new Li Zheng to the meeting or be represented by his remaining family members.

Through correcting everything, Zhao Hanzhang quickly clarified the losses caused by this war, and Fu Tinghan made various analysis charts for her based on the data.

Based on these analysis maps, Zhao Hanzhang regained control of the fields and population situation in each district, and asked the governors to persuade the fleeing people to return to the city.

"It's the autumn harvest, so let's organize people to harvest beans and rice first," Zhao Hanzhang said: "For families who have lost a young man in their family, the township will organize people to help harvest. The fields left by the family members who died will be temporarily taken over by the county government."

Everyone had no objections and bowed in agreement.

The policy is such a policy, but it is not easy to implement. Zhao Hanzhang cannot just give one sentence and be the boss.

So she rolled up her sleeves, went out to recruit people, and led them into the fields to harvest beans and rice.

All wages are paid by the county government. In addition, the construction of damaged houses in the county, the construction of city walls and city gates, all of which can be used as work relief.

The city was full of treats, and the originally lifeless Xiping County suddenly came to life. In the busyness, everyone temporarily forgot the pain of losing their loved ones. As of today, it has only been five days since the Battle of Xiping.

Mr. Song and others did not expect that Xiping County could cheer up so quickly. The people who had run away before came back on their own. After receiving the relief rations, they either went to harvest their own grain or went to the county government office to get a number plate to work for relief. .

While everyone was busy, Zhao Hanzhang posted an announcement exempting everyone in Xiping County from autumn taxes this year.

Posted together with this announcement was the expropriation of the slums in the West Second Street area to serve as military camps. She would later station troops in Xiping to defend Xiping.

The two announcements were posted together. Most of the ordinary people stared at the first announcement. After listening to the yamen official reading the first announcement, they immediately started talking loudly, "Does this mean we don't have to pay this year's autumn taxes?"

"Then save some food and you can still survive until next summer."

"It's great. Sanniang Zhao is really kind and compassionate."

Everyone was talking about it, but few people paid attention to the second announcement.

As soon as the yamen officer finished reading and left, most of the people were illiterate and didn't care about the announcement, so they gathered together to discuss the autumn tax.

But some people paid special attention to the second announcement. After reading it twice, they squeezed out of the crowd and ran back to tell the owner of the house.

"Zhao Hanzhang wants to station troops in the city?"

"Yes, it's on West Second Street. Master Lang, if it is rebuilt, it can house at least a thousand people. With so many people, won't Xiping County become the Zhao family's back garden in the future?"

"Do you want to go to Zhao's Wubao to mention it?"

"What are you talking about?" Mr. Song asked, "Look at how Zhao Hanzhang has been doing something drastic in the county these days. Is there anyone from the Zhao family?"

Zhao Hanzhang is now in charge of Xiping County Government. She has soldiers in her hands. Who dares to mess with her?

"Didn't Magistrate Fan's daughter survive? Magistrate Xiping was going to be canonized by the imperial court," the man said, "Magistrate Fan's family died in the city, and the girl from the Fan family who remained was the Queen of Zhongyi. If she petitioned the imperial court And please ask the court to arrange a new county magistrate..."

Mr. Song pondered.

None of them knew that at this time, Luoyang had received a letter from Zhao Ming.

The zhezi and the letter arrived in the capital at the same time. The zhezi was handed in, and the letter was sent directly to Zhao Zhongyu at Zhao's house.

As a prominent local family, the Zhao family had the right and obligation to report local conditions to the emperor.

Zhao Ming was once a middle-grade scholar. Although he did not serve as an official, writing excerpts was not difficult for him.
