Chapter 586 586 Delivery

After all the things were moved into the house, several guards came out and clasped their fists at Li Qing: "Master Li, our brothers will leave."

Li Qing smiled politely, "Bartou Song, what are you doing in such a hurry? If you stay here for one night, will you be able to leave early tomorrow morning?"

"Yeah! I haven't even eaten yet, so I'll take a rest here and leave for the night." Liang Cheng laughed aside.

Song Biao clasped his fist and said with a smile: "Let's harass the adults for one more night."

Li Qing nodded and said to Alei: "Alei went to the street and called two tables of banquets to come in. After dinner, everyone has a good rest."

"Yes, sir." Alley bowed and left.

Lin Su stood beside Li Qing and said in a low voice, "Master, listen to what Wang Xiancheng said, Mr. Liu was lingering on the sick bed shortly after he took office, and we have never heard of this from the officials in Kyoto. Since he is lingering on the bed, who will take care of the affairs of the county government during his tenure? Why didn't he report it when he was seriously ill?"

Li Qing thought for a while, "I'm surprised that Mr. Liu was so frail and sick from the beginning? Or was it only in Lexian that he could not afford the disease? Also, after exchanging the seals, first checked the accounts and official business before handing over the offer."

Lin Su nodded and said, "Let's get there when we come out, and there is nowhere to find out the news, so we can only take a step by step."

Li Qing said: "Tomorrow morning, I will let Brother Ding and the others go to inquire about the news."

Liang Cheng and several people helped put the large pieces of furniture in place, while Fan Mingfang and Mrs. Yun were busy tidying up the house and putting it in order.

Mrs. Lin and Mrs. Yang cleaned the stove and saw that there was still a bundle of firewood in front of the stove, so they began to boil water to prepare for washing.

Are filed in with several restaurant guys.

Li Qing pointed to the main hall and the flower hall and said: "Put the food on a table in the main hall and a table in the flower hall. Everyone eats, washes and rests first."

The guy set the meal, bowed and stepped back to get the unfinished meal.

Wang Zhi had called the four women who helped the cook to the second door.

When a few old ladies saw the restaurant staff rushing out, the long-faced old lady grabbed the round-faced old lady in front, and said in a low voice with glowing eyes, "This is the guy from Xiangmanlou, reserve a table in Xiangmanlou. Wine and food, the cheapest ones are 2 taels of silver."

The round-faced woman nodded, "It seems that the newly appointed county magistrate has a good family."

Several other people couldn't help nodding, and when a few people walked to the door of the Houya, the doorman A Kun stopped them, "Who are you?"

The round-faced woman glanced inside and shouted loudly: "We are the rough old women hired by the yamen to help the cook. Why don't you allow us to enter."

A Kun glanced at her and shouted: "Speak well, what are you shouting for? You wait, I will report to the master."

After Fan Mingfang heard the report, he said to Li Qing, "Aqing, the women hired by the yamen to work are all related to the headhunters and scribes. They are not easy to manage, and they also spread the affairs of the inner court to the outside world. The wages of these people are paid by the county government. I want them to go back and the wages will be paid as usual. What do you think?"

Li Qing nodded, "You are in charge of the affairs of the back office, you can do whatever you say."

Fan Mingfang nodded and said to Alei: "Go and tell them what I said."

A Lei responded and went to the second gate. Seeing a few old women standing at the door constantly poking their heads in the inner courtyard, A Lei told a few people what Fan Mingfang said.

saw two old women showing happy expressions, and the expressions of two of them changed. The round-faced old woman looked at Alei, "This little brother, let's get paid if we don't work, isn't it good!"

Alei glanced at her, "My master has said that there is nothing wrong."

A few wives walked away muttering. After a while, Wang Zhi told Wang Xiancheng that Li Qing had driven away the wives, "Cousin, what do you think about this?"

Wang Xiancheng touched his chin, thought for a while, and said, "Let them go back first, and talk about it after a while."

Li Qing and the others had just eaten when an old man who claimed to be the magistrate of Liuxian came to visit Li Qing.

Li Qing had someone bring him in. The old man saluted Li Qing with a long bow and said, "Master Li, the old man Liu Chun, is Master Liu, my master is unwell, and I want to return to my hometown for medical treatment as soon as possible. I want to ask Master Li to take over as soon as possible."

Li Qing stepped forward to help him and said: "Master Liu, don't be too polite, I will take over as soon as possible."

Master Liu heard Li Qing's words and saluted again: "Thank you, Mr. Li, my master will greet you at the front office tomorrow morning."

Li Qing smiled and said, "It's easy to say, easy to say."

Early the next morning, Li Qing saw the Master Liu in the front hall of the county government office. He was stunned and pale, and he looked like he was not cured for a long time.

After the two were courteous, Wang Xiancheng and Zhang Xianwei brought the head of the police, the clerk and the sergeant to meet Li Qing.

The county magistrate pointed to Wang Xiancheng and the old man behind him, and said weakly to Li Qing: "Master Li, I am sick and jet lag, and the official business is handled by Wang Xiancheng and my master. They are the most aware of official duties, and they will take care of the transaction, and I can go back to my hometown to see a doctor after the transaction."

Li Qing cupped his hands and smiled: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say, I will take stock of it as soon as possible, and hand over it as soon as possible."

Liu County Magistrate did not expect that Li Qing had to take stock of the letter after changing the seal.

Wang Xiancheng lowered his head and his face changed uncertainly. He did not expect Li Qing to disregard Liu Xiancheng's body and want to check the accounts.

Li Qing took Lin Su and A Lei to count the account books at the yamen. Liang Cheng and Ding Yi went out the door and walked towards the street separately.

There are four avenues in Le County, which lead directly to the doorway under the Simen City Tower. There are more than a dozen large and small streets and alleys in the city. These large and small streets and alleys cross each other, and it is very convenient to travel between the city and the market.

Liang Cheng and Ding Yi strolled around the street and found the Sihai Bank after finding the East Street. There was a Huiheng pawnshop next to the Sihai Bank. The two stood at the door and took a look, and found that there were still a lot of people who came to the pawnshop to **** things.

Liang Cheng said to Ding Yi, "Have you noticed that? Although the streets of Lexian County are clean and tidy, there are not many vendors in the street market, and there are even fewer vendors in the vegetable market than in other places."

Ding Yi frowned, "Looks like I have to ask the locals."

Liang Cheng looked at Ding Yi and said with a smile: "It's up to you to make a move. I'm going to ask with this look. It's weird if I don't scare people away."

Ding Yi glanced at him and nodded with a smile, "Alright, let's do things separately. You go shopping, and I'll find someone to inquire about the news."

Li Qing took A Lei to take stock of the taxation and expenditures since the magistrate Liu took office, as well as the remaining treasury silver in the yamen. Lin Su checked the amount of grain stored in the county granary.

Wang Xiancheng and Liu Shiye took the clerk to remove the account book and various bills from the library, and Liu Shiye went back to the inn behind the county office.

Wang Xiancheng stood aside to help diligently. Seeing that Li Qing and A Lei used the abacus with one hand and kept the accounts with the other, their posture was faster than the accumulated accounting speed.

Wang County Magistrate saw the afternoon, and came out of the yamen and hurried to the North Street in a car.
