Chapter 542 Hua Murong's Daily Life as a County Magistrate

Ever since he came to Guyang County to take office, his lunch has basically been taken care of by his brother-in-law's family. Either Uncle Li has someone send it to him, or his sister and brother-in-law deliver it. In the evening, unless there is a special situation, he will go back to Dashan Village to have meals and stay overnight. His life is so leisurely.

Especially the food cooked by my brother-in-law is so delicious that I have become so picky with food.

Xin Ye lifted his robe and sat on the other side of Hua Murong. He glanced at Hua Murong who was enjoying her lunch. Suddenly, he remembered what his wife had told him and asked, "Big brother, do you know when the second brother will arrive in Guyang County?"

"It will take a few days. Do you have something urgent to discuss with him?"

"It's nothing urgent. Isn't it almost summer harvest time? My eldest brother should also go to the countryside for inspection. My wife wants to go with him to take a walk around the area, but she's worried about missing my second brother."

"That's right." Hua Murong thought about it and made a decision. "I will delay my departure by two days and head north first. If nothing goes wrong, we will meet Lao Er halfway. Lao Er also plans to follow me to see Guyang County."

The reason Hua Muxin came to Guyang County was purely because Hua Murong was the magistrate of Guyang County. Hua Murong wanted to improve economic development and improve the living standards of the people in Guyang County. The first thing he had to do was to attract more businessmen to trade here.

Hua Muchin, who is in charge of the Hua family's property, is undoubtedly the best candidate. It can be said that he kills two birds with one stone. Hua Muchin gains profit and Hua Murong gains fame. This wave of events means that the Hua family gains both fame and fortune, the people benefit, and a win-win situation is achieved.

After getting a definite answer, Xin Ye quickly cleaned up the dishes and ran away as if there was a dog chasing him as soon as Hua Murong finished her meal.

Hua Murong was used to it. She calmly stood up and walked around for a few times to digest her food, then buried her head in her desk to continue handling official business.

In the half year since Hua Murong took office, he has not made any spectacular political achievements. Most of the time he has been handling official business step by step and dealing with the trivial matters of the people. His life can be considered as busy but not too busy.

The people had a good impression of the new county magistrate, but he was not as well-received as the previous one. After all, the previous one had brought them tangible benefits. Because of the planting of sweet potatoes, basically few people went hungry in the winter.

For the villagers, the new magistrate Hua did not take the benefits of the sweet potatoes for himself, but continued to arrange for them to farm according to the method of the previous magistrate. This was undoubtedly the best thing for them. They were just afraid that this young new magistrate would be ambitious and like to give blind orders without knowing anything.

For the common people in the county, even if they were trivial matters, as long as they were reported to the government, the new county magistrate would handle them fairly and impartially, without accepting bribes or showing favoritism, so the initial impression score was secure.

Afterwards, they recruited many new detectives and sent more detectives to patrol Guyang County from time to time. This effectively stopped some thugs from collecting protection fees and reduced the number of petty thefts and fights on the streets. This made them feel that the entire Guyang County was brand new and the living comfort level was improving.

It can be said that Hua Murong has not achieved any major achievements, but she is quietly changing the current situation in Guyang County in a subtle and silent way.

His actions were not obvious at first, and it took some time before they showed results.

It can only be said that it is not easy for Hua Murong, who is not short of money, to implement reforms. Take the number of constables for example. The current number of constables is more than three times that of the previous county magistrate.
