Let's see what he can do first.

"Tianbao...that scholar is awake." Li Jin shouted.

Tianbao, who was sitting in the yard, got up and walked to the room after hearing this.

In the room, Li Xiaoning and Shen Mei were diagnosing his pulse.

"Sister-in-law... her pulse has gradually become calmer. There is no big problem." Li Xiaoning looked at her.

Li Jin brought the porridge, "Here, eat something. You've been hungry for too long. Take your time to heal your stomach."

"No need...don't worry about me..." The scholar looked decadent.

"Look at you...you are still a scholar. Is it easy for your family to support a scholar? Even though they are gone, why don't you live a good life?

They also want to see that the scholar they finally donated can live a good life, and it is best to be able to do a career of his own, but this is not a matter of life and death. "

After speaking, Li Jin patted his shoulder again, "Brother, I know you feel sad, but there are many hardships to face in life.

We can't be knocked down easily, right? You are still a scholar, but you are more powerful than others and can do many things.

My son is the county magistrate here. He is a new magistrate. He is currently short of manpower. Do you want to work with him and make some contributions to the people of Yongkang County? "

Li Jinbian said that the scholar's expression began to change. At first he was indifferent, then he said he was surprised and finally started to be moved by him.

Li Shubai looked at Li Jin in surprise. He didn't know when his father's eloquence became so good.

"Then...then what can I do? Imperial examination?" The scholar shook his head, "It's been a long time since I read a book..."

"I happen to be short of a master... Do you want to come over and help me?" Li Shubai asked.

"I... can I?"

"Then it depends on whether you can do it. It's also a chance for yourself, isn't it?" Li Shubai looked at him.

The scholar lowered his head and thought for a long time, looked at Li Shubai, and nodded solemnly, "Okay."

Li Jin smiled, "That's right, what's your name?"

"My surname is Zhang..."

**

Because Zhang Xiucai joined, Li Shubai relaxed a lot. Although he was only a scholar, he was very capable of doing things.

He is responsible for recruiting chief bookkeepers and other needed personnel.

It was not until three days later that the county government had almost all its manpower recruited.

There were eleven or two policemen in total, all of whom were residents nearby. They had nothing to do, they had money for a month, and there was nothing dangerous, so they all came over to sign up.

The county magistrate was a candidate from another county. After failing the exam several times, he stopped taking the exam. Knowing that they were looking for the county magistrate in Yongkang County, he quickly recommended himself.

The chief clerk was a child student, a middle-aged man who had failed to pass the examination for several years.

After the personnel were determined, we began to slowly get on track.

It rained for a total of seven days after arriving in Yongkang County. It finally cleared up. Li Shubai and the others were going to take a walk around the area.

Tianbao also wanted to go, and eventually everyone went together.

Master Zhang, Zhou County's Prime Minister and Chief Sun knew that Li Shubai and the others were going to visit everywhere, so they hurriedly accompanied them.

Everyone didn't take a carriage, they just walked slowly like this.

Looking at the desolate places everywhere, Li Shubai felt very desolate.

It turns out there are so many places suffering that he doesn't know about.

After everyone walked around the county town, Qian Xiaoxiao exclaimed, "This is still a county town, much better than the countryside.

Everyone still has some savings, and it's raining now. I heard that the wells filled with water overnight.

These people can still live, but aren't those people in the countryside just waiting to die?

There is no harvest from the fields, and there is no money in hand..."

"Then let's go to the countryside now." Tianbao said.

Master Zhou quickly stopped him, "County Lord, the roads in the country are not easy to walk... Why don't you and your Excellency go back first and we can go take a look?"

Chief Sun nodded repeatedly, "That's right."

Wen Yang shook his head, "It must be difficult in the countryside. Although there is water, I can't buy seeds if I don't have money...

The fields have been abandoned for several years, and it is not yet known whether crops will grow. "

Tianbao looked at Li Shubai, "Let's go take a look."

Li Shubai also wanted to see "Okay."

Chief Sun of Zhou County is very worried. After all, he is also the head of the county... Jinzhiyuye...

Master Zhang agreed with them to go see it in person. After all, it would be best if they didn't see it with their own eyes.

"Xian Cheng Zhou, Master Sun, please don't try to persuade me. Your Excellency and the County Master are both kind-hearted people. They know that everyone is not doing well, so if you don't go and see for yourself, you will feel very uncomfortable." Master Zhang looked at the other party. The two people wanted to continue to block it.

Wenyang nodded, "Yes."

Li Jin looked at Qian Xiaoxiao, "You go back first, and we'll go take a look." Then he looked at Wen Yang, "You go and prepare two carriages."

Qian Xiaoxiao nodded and stopped causing trouble to them.

"Okay." Wen Yang nodded and turned around to take a few people to the carriage.

Tianbao looked at Shen Mei and Li Xiaoning, "Do you want to go back first?"

They both shook their heads and said, "We'll go too."

Wenyang drove the carriage over, Tianbao and the others took one, Li Shubai and Li Jin took another.

Everyone quickly headed to the nearest village.

"Sister-in-law, look..." There were villagers all along the way. They all had baskets in their hands and small shovels in their hands. It was obvious at a glance that they were out looking for food.

Tianbao and the others stopped the carriage and got down from the top. Many villagers looked at them curiously.

After all, there are very few people coming to the countryside now, let alone young masters and ladies from rich families.

Seeing so many of them, the younger ones were so frightened that they stepped back.

Rong Zhi and Su Lianyun quickly stepped forward to reassure everyone, "This is our new magistrate of Yongkang County."

Only then did everyone look at Li Shubai and saw that he was so young...

Everyone shook their heads in disappointment.

Tianbao walked towards one of the women because she was carrying a child on her back.

"how old is he?"

"More than a year old." The woman replied.

"Are you villagers from a nearby village?" Tianbao asked again.

A middle-aged man next to the woman replied, "We are all nearby villagers. Isn't it raining these days?"

God opened his eyes, it finally rained, and after the rain we found a lot of dead branches and a lot of fungus and mushrooms next to them..."

The man's face was full of joy when he said this, "My boy almost starved to death... Fortunately, it rained heavily..."

Li Shubai looked at the surrounding villagers, "Do you all have land? Can you still plant after the fields are sorted?"

"Hey... I haven't planted it for a long time, and I'm not sure whether I can plant it again."

"That's right, now we have time to go look for food. Who's going to work on the land? Store more food. Don't wait for a few days to run out..."

"That's right, sir, you don't know, if there is another drought... it will really be over."

"No, there won't be another drought." Tianbao looked at everyone with a serious look on his face.

Everyone looked at her and asked, "How did you know?"

"Look at the clouds in the sky mixed with some dark clouds. Although the sky is clear now, I predict there will be a heavy rain in three days."
