Transmigrated into a female county magistrate during a famine, leading her country to prosperity

All these designs are to ensure that the grain in the granary will not be contaminated by moisture during the rainy season.

There are also camphor wood around the warehouse to prevent moisture and insect pests.

Logically speaking, the county governments in various places do not have much grain stored, so granaries should be set up in the county governments as much as possible to facilitate management. When the county government chooses a site, it will also first investigate whether this place is suitable for building a granary.

However, the Tongan County Government Office did not occupy a large area. The previous granary was set up inside the county government office. Not only was the area small, but the materials used were also extremely sloppy, and it would be damaged if it rained.

So more than 20 years ago, a Tongan County magistrate gritted his teeth and renovated the granary behind the county government office.

Of course, granaries like those in provincial capitals are basically not stored in government offices.

First, the state has a large territory, and second, the granaries have large amounts of grain stored.

The location of the provincial granary is very particular. The geographical topography, sunlight intensity, and ventilation level must all be taken into consideration, and then a "feng shui treasure land" must be selected to build the granary.

Moreover, the construction cost of the provincial granary is high, unlike the county granary which is "random" and will not be changed at will after the site is selected.

This is Shen Zheng’s second time coming to Tongan County granary.

The scene when she first came here is still vivid in her mind.

At that time, she had just arrived in Tongan County. She was frightened and hesitant. When she heard Xu Zhubu say that there was no grain in the county government granary, she became disheartened and came here with the mentality of "broken jar" - what if she could find the two bags of missed grain?

After that, she knew that Xu Zhubu was a man who never joked.

At that time, her mind was completely focused on storing grain. When she opened the door, what suddenly caught her eye was the empty granary. There was only one voice in her mind - so poor, it's over, it's all over. She had no mind to take a closer look at the granary.

Now happening again, Shen Zheng's state of mind is completely different from that time.

Both she and the people following her were filled with joy and hope.

After a calm and careful look, I discovered that although the Tongan County granary is empty and old, the person who designed and renovated the entire granary put a lot of thought into it.

Whether it is the walls, eaves, floor tiles or beams, the materials used are extremely good. While isolating the earth's air and moisture, they are also durable.

The granary in Tongan County fully meets the renovation standards of the Da Zhou granary, which is highly commendable locally.

Shen Zheng took out the straw paper in her arms, and called Xiao Yuan to get paper and pen, and also called Xu Zhubu.

But soon Xu Zhubu arrived. Shen Zheng took the paper and pen and said to the village heads, "First, move the rice seeds down from each village and pile them up according to the village. Xu Zhubu will weigh them. I will calculate the output of each village. When Zhao Qutou comes back, we will start to check the rice seeds."

Xu Zhubu nodded at her and stood at the door of the warehouse. Shen Zheng sat down at the registration desk at the door and began to calculate the output.

Everything is in order.

On the other hand, Yu Zhengqing had nothing to do, so he walked back and forth between several warehouses, marveling at the sight:

"Your granary is the emptiest granary I have ever seen."

After a moment, he thought of something and said, "It shouldn't be like this. Didn't you say that the landlord surnamed Wang had lent his family's grain to the county government?"

Shen Zheng bowed his head and calculated, and replied: "After the ditch was repaired, the remaining grain was returned to him. The grain was stored when the landlord Lao Wang was still alive. He was very smart. He saw that the world was not going well, so he stored so much grain, hoping to make a fortune."

"Tsk." Yu Zhengqing was disgusted, but this situation was common whether in Tongan County, Liuyang Prefecture, or all over the Great Zhou.

He then asked, "Did the landlord Wang make a fortune by taking back the remaining grain?"

"No." Shen Zheng wiped the ink off his fingers.

"He refused to take it at first and wanted to find an excuse to give it to the county government. But as you know, the county government cooperated with Hu's grain store to sell subsidized grain, so I said that if he didn't want it, he could sell the grain to Hu Likai at the market price, which would also benefit the people."

"He is a very insightful person." Yu Zhengqing's words seemed to be praising Shen Zheng, and also seemed to be praising Wang Guangjin.

Shen Zheng didn't answer and just buried her head in writing.

In fact, whether she was studying in her previous life or working now, she doesn't like people talking to her, because she needs to concentrate fully, so that she can be efficient - she doesn't like to do useless work, nor does she like to rework.

But Yu Zhengqing was just bored. After walking around the people weighing themselves twice, he turned back to Shen Zheng.

He showed off, "I got some news yesterday. Do you want to hear it? It's good news."

Shen Zheng did not answer. Her mind was focused on the string of numbers in front of her. Only then did she realize how good the mobile phone calculator that she had discarded like a piece of trash in her previous life was.

Seeing that she didn't answer, Yu Zhengqing didn't get discouraged and continued, "I received news last night from the official post station. It said that people from above stayed overnight at their place and came to our Tong'an County. People from both the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Households have come."

At this point, Shen Zheng in front of him finally reacted. She was a little surprised and looked up and said:

"It's really that fast. Last time you said that the person might be on the way, I calculated the days. Judging from the situation, whether it is the person who delivered the message at the beginning or the person sent by the emperor now, they have not rested for a long time on the way and are almost non-stop."

After thinking for a moment, she asked again, "Which road's official posthouse sent you the letter?"

Yu Zhengqing said: "Cangyuan Road is not too far from here, but it will take a few days for the news to come back, so I estimate that it will take less than two days for the people to arrive."

"Then I have to be well prepared and not neglect you gentlemen." Shen Zheng's answer was perfunctory again.

Nowadays, the affairs of the county are so complicated that she is almost too busy to do anything. If she wants to be honest, she actually hopes that the people from above will come later so that she can catch her breath.

After all, having someone come means negotiation, which is too exhausting and time-consuming.

Yu Zhengqing was not satisfied with her reaction and raised his eyebrows and said, "As far as I know, they came with rewards."

"Really?!" Shen Zheng stood up suddenly, and the stool under him fell to the ground with a clang.

"Money-grubber!" Yu Zhengqing pretended to be angry.

Shen Zheng laughed awkwardly, straightened the stool, looked up and asked: "Do you know that the reward..."

"I don't know." Yu Zhengqing interrupted her mercilessly and added: "The people who came this time are very mysterious. I suspect they have suppressed the news. Not only have I not found out who rewarded me, but I don't even know who is in charge."

Shen Zheng also showed a surprised look, and then heard Yu Zhengqing say: "The person who hid his itinerary must be of high status... Forget it, it's useless for us to guess here, we will know when the person arrives."

Shen Zheng nodded. No matter who the visitor was, as long as he brought rewards, he would be the God of Wealth of her Tongan County!

Can the rewards from His Majesty be the same as the gifts given by local governments?

That is a shining honor for the entire Tongan County, which can be recorded in the history of Tongan County and go down in history!

Shen Zheng couldn't help but smile. She hummed a song while smoothing out the straw paper and then calculated the output.

Yu Zhengqing was standing beside her and just looking at it casually, but when he saw the "earthworm" on the straw paper, he frowned and asked, "Aren't you calculating the output? Don't you have an abacus? What are you drawing nonsense for?"
