Chapter 453 Disaster Controlled
The county government office of Huayin County
Jiang Chen's mental state was a little better at the moment, and he immediately summoned the county magistrate to come to question him.
As far as Jiang Chen is concerned, what he wants to know most is whether his efforts this time are in vain, whether he is just talking on paper, or whether he can really alleviate the flood of the Yellow River.
"The next official sees the lord!"
The county magistrate of Huayin County respectfully bowed to Jiang Chen. Through this incident, he was also completely overwhelmed by the lord's personality charm.
It is definitely the first time that a lord, the biggest ruler in Hanzhong, is willing to disregard his personal safety for the sake of the people.
Just as the saying goes, "Working from top to bottom", Wang An also learned a lot of ways to be an official from Jiang Chen, and he also started to implement benevolent government in Huayin County, so that the law and order and atmosphere of Huayin County have been significantly improved in a short period of time.
Many people began to have a sense of security, and the barriers between them and the police and officials began to slowly narrow, although it took a process.
But he firmly believes that as long as he persists, he will soon be able to get effective control.
"Get up, I want to ask you!"
"Has the problem of floods been solved perfectly? In Huayin County, have the fertile fields of the victims been destroyed?"
Jiang Chen made a gesture of supporting him.
"My lord, in Huayin County, in addition to digging the river to occupy the civilian land, there are also more than [-] mu of good farmland on both sides of the river, but the disaster is not serious!"
"The potatoes were not washed away by the water, because the flood water diverted quickly, and the damage was not obvious!"
The county magistrate Wang An didn't dare to be negligent, and immediately gave Jiang Chen a general report on the situation of the disaster. Jiang Chen nodded after hearing this, and finally heaved a sigh of relief.
"That's good, I finally got it under control, and I finally lived up to the expectations of the people!"
"It's worth the price this time!"
After Jiang Chen finished speaking, he then said to Wang An:
"This time, because of the excavation of the river channel, there must be a lot of people who were attacked by the cold evil just like me!"
"Many people are heads of families. Their illnesses will definitely put a huge burden on their families. Have you ever handled this well?"
Jiang Chen asked.
"My lord, there is no precedent for this matter!"
"The common people have been doing hard labor, which has been the case since ancient times, and the government also provided meals. In the past, the common people needed to bring their own tools and meals!"
County magistrate Wang An looked at Jiang Chen with some doubts, how should we deal with this matter?
They have done a good enough job. Although some people are sick, most of them will recover after going back to lie down for a few days. At worst, they can solve it with a few medicines.
He felt that Jiang Chen was making a fuss out of a molehill.
"Bastard!"
"How can my territory be different from others'!"
"Why did I tell you, to govern the people, you must put the people first, and you must do your best to care for the people! Go serve them!"
"This is the first priority of your county magistrate!"
"You actually told me that after so many days, you didn't deal with it at all?"
Jiang Chen sternly shouted, scaring the magistrate Wang An to his knees on the ground, he said with a look of horror:
"My lord, I have found guilty, and I am willing to accept my lord's punishment!"
"My lord, please don't get angry!"
"The next officer will arrange it immediately!"
Wang An also didn't understand why Jiang Chen was so angry. Now he has a deeper understanding of Jiang Chen's concept of putting people first.
It turns out that the people are to be regarded as their own parents. When they encounter any difficulties, they must try their best to help them solve the problems and maintain their dignity.
"I can't blame you for this!"
"Hurry up and deal with it. You must handle it carefully. Workers will be compensated. If you are sick, you should ask a doctor to treat it for free."
"Can you understand what I mean?"
Jiang Chen looked at Wang An and ordered.
"My lord, I understand!"
"The next officer will arrange everything immediately!"
Wang An nodded and looked at Jiang Chen with admiration in his eyes. This is a good king for the people, and his goal is to benefit the people.
"Wait!"
"There is one more thing that must be dealt with!"
Jiang Chen looked at Wang An who was about to leave, and stopped him.
"Please tell me, my lord!"
The Huayin county magistrate saluted Jiang Chen respectfully.
"The land requisitioned for the construction of the river must be compensated twice as a thank you!"
"They gave their land and crops for Hanzhong. This is their trust in Hanzhong and in me. I must not let them down!"
"And, those farmers affected by the floods, their taxes will be waived this year!"
"Without their efforts, this flood would not have been handled so smoothly!"
Jiang Chen said to Wang An.
"Yes, my lord, I will arrange it immediately!"
A look of shock flashed in Wang An's eyes. He never expected that Jiang Chen would put so much effort into benevolent governance. In the past, if the country wanted to expropriate land, it would not need to discuss with the people at all.
It was directly used, but what was exchanged for you was still some bad land that had not been opened up, and the people dared to be angry but did not dare to speak.But now, Jiang Chen talks to them with twice as much money.
Those people whose fields have been exchanged will probably burst into laughter, which is really a pleasant surprise.
"Go, remember to be warm to the common people!"
"Don't post official records, this is the last time I will tell you how to do it!"
"If you don't do well next time, take off your official uniform and don't ruin the common people!"
Jiang Chen said sternly.
Serving the people is definitely not just talk. Those things that stay in the form, no matter what, must let the people feel the real benefits.
"Yes, my lord!"
"I promise that I can do a good job. If not, I am willing to resign and return to the fields and become an old farmer myself!"
Wang An nodded seriously.He felt the blood in his heart boiling, and he seemed to see a bright future that belonged to him.
He couldn't miss this opportunity that would last forever.
The tide of the times cannot photograph him on the beach.
"Well, let's go!"
Jiang Chen waved his hand, then closed his eyes.
The conversation with Wang An just now seemed to have exhausted all his strength, and he had been holding on just now, not wanting Wang An to see his discomfort.
He wanted Wang An to devote all his energy to managing the affairs of the county instead of caring about him.
So many people care about him, and the people affected by the disaster need official greetings even more.
"My lord, are you being too harsh on County Magistrate Wang?"
"After all, he didn't do anything wrong!"
A pleasant voice sounded in his ears, and Zhen Jiang asked with a puzzled expression.
She is a person who dares to speak out, when facing Jiang Chen, she is not stage frightened in the slightest, and she is quite a heroine.
