The county magistrate's daughter only wants to farm

Chapter 62 I recognized it at a glance

A tall figure in official uniform and with a dignified temperament walked out of the city gate. Gu Huaiyi walked calmly to the notice board. The people's eyes followed him to the notice board. When they saw that the county magistrate had really come, the people at the scene began to whisper to each other.

"The county magistrate really came."

"Yeah, what is he doing here?"

“Do we not need to buy bricks?”

"I don't know, let's hear what he says first."

Gu Huaiyi stood on the table, took the megaphone from Gao Fei, and pressed down with both hands. Seeing this, the constables walking through the crowd began to remind the people around to be quiet, and the scene soon quieted down. Gu Huaiyi then picked up the megaphone and shouted to the crowd:

"Please be patient and listen to the content quietly. First of all, we require each household to build a sewer, not only for the county magistrate's environment, but also to provide more convenience for everyone's life."

"If the sewers are not paved with stones or bricks, they will be clogged with mud in no time."

"Can we use stones?" A commoner standing in front asked courageously.

"Yes, as long as you can find a way to prevent mud and other things from clogging the sewers, you can use anything. However, after each household's sewer is built, it needs to be reported to the county government, and it can only be connected to the public area after passing the county government's acceptance." Gu Huaiyi replied loudly.

This is done to prevent some people from doing things in a perfunctory manner to complete the task, which might clog the sewers in public areas, which would be counterproductive.

After hearing what Gu Huaiyi said, the people standing behind realized that they didn't have to use blue bricks. If they used stones, they wouldn't have to spend money to buy them.

"Also, for those who want blue bricks but don't want to spend money to buy them, the county government will provide you with an opportunity."

Is there such a good thing?

"What chance?" someone asked.

"If an adult man works for ten days in sewer construction, he can get 500 bricks from the county government."

After Gu Huaiyi finished speaking, the crowd began to talk again.

"This is good. It saves me from going all the way out of town to look for stones, and then carrying them back after I find them."

"That makes sense. Bricks are better than stones. They are square and easy to lay."

Of course, there were also many who objected, saying that the county government just wanted them to work for free. After hearing this, some people immediately disagreed, saying that the county government had given them blue bricks, and those blue bricks were for their own use, not for the county government.

Everyone was arguing with each other until their faces turned red.

Seeing that the people had almost finished talking, Gu Huaiyi raised his hands and pressed them down again. The crowd gradually quieted down, and Gu Huaiyi continued:

"I know that some people are not happy with the practice of digging sewers every time, but this must be done. For us to have a comfortable and clean living environment in the future, and for the future development of our Ning County, I hope everyone can actively cooperate."

"For a county to develop, the efforts of the county government alone are far from enough. We also need you, all of you, to participate and work together to create a beautiful Ning County that belongs to us!"

Gu Huaiyi became more and more excited as he spoke. At the end, he couldn't help but clench his fist and waved it, shouting passionately: "Let's work together for a beautiful Ning County!"

The people below were inspired by their county magistrate and followed his example, waving their fists and shouting:

“Let’s work hard for the beautiful Ning County!”

“Let’s work hard for the beautiful Ning County!”

At this moment, they felt for the first time how close they were to the county government, and that they could work together with the county government for a goal.

At this moment, they are full of hope for the future of Ning County.

You have to strike while the iron is hot. As soon as the announcement was made, we started arranging on-site registration.

"Come on, come on, those from Alley 1, come over here and sign up."

"The one in Alley 2 is here."

"From the left to the right, start counting from number one. Do you see the symbol on the wall?" A yamen runner pointed to the large Arabic number one painted on the wall and instructed loudly, "This is one, this one over here is two, keep adding to the number to the right. Do you understand?"

A row of tables has been set up under the city wall. A number is painted on the wall behind each table, representing the registration office of a certain alley. Those who want to participate in exchanging labor for blue bricks can register at the corresponding table according to their alley.

Behind each table there was a person waiting to register. These were scholars who could write and were specially invited by the county government. After all, not everyone in the county government could write.

"So that's how it is. This is called one. Haha, this symbol is much simpler than those words. I can recognize it at a glance." A strong man laughed after hearing the explanation of the yamen runner.

"Yeah, this one is easy. I can recognize it, and I can recognize the number two next to it, too."

"If I count from here, then shouldn't I be able to recognize more than a dozen numbers?" someone said in surprise. Oh my god, he actually learned to read one day.

So many people walked around and started learning the numbers on the city wall, and the scene became a little chaotic.

"First find your own alley registration office and line up to register." Captain Ding took the lead in guiding the crowd. "The numbers on the wall will not be erased. You can see them when you pass by in the future. There is no need to rush."

After hearing this word, most people will not be in a hurry or rush for it. There are too many people now and there will be plenty of opportunities in the future.

Seeing the orderly formation of teams at the city gate, Song Ruorou was amazed. She turned to Gu Yin and exclaimed, "Ayin, your father is so amazing."

"Of course, don't you see whose father he is?" Gu Yin lowered his chin and said proudly.

This made Song Ruorou laugh softly, and she gently hit her: "Look how proud you are."

"Come on, come on, those who have already registered, come over here and take a look." Gao Fei shouted through a loudspeaker to the people who had registered and were about to leave.

"What are you looking at?"

"What is this?" Someone noticed the huge drawing hanging on the wall behind Gao Fei.

Seeing that many people gathered around, Gao Fei explained: "This is the house layout design. In order to make the layout of the houses you build in the future more reasonable, the county government has designed this layout for your reference."

"Tsk! I thought it was something else. We're not building a new house, so why are we looking at this?" someone said disdainfully.

"Don't worry, this is not only useful for building a new house. The county government has also provided a specific plan for the sewer this time." Gao Fei explained patiently, "Look, this sewer leads from the kitchen to the yard. If we build a sink in the kitchen, wouldn't it be much more convenient to use water?"

"And this, guess what it is?" Gao Fei asked deliberately, pointing to a long oval above and a tube-shaped picture below.
