Chapter 414 Unannounced visit

As a large county in Hanoi, there was actually no need to worry about it originally. However, as the main battlefield between Chen Mo and Yuan Shao, Hanoi had a bad life in recent years. Chen Mo moved the people from here, and later the Hanoi gentry took the remaining people north.

Moving to Yuan Shao, Hanoi County, which was originally rich in population, suddenly became desolate.

Later, a war broke out between Chen Mo and Yuan Shao, and Hanoi's population was reduced to ten, either fleeing north or moving south. In short, before Yuan Shao was overthrown, Hanoi could be regarded as the core of the war between the two families. Even if Chen Mo later gained Hanoi County,

Because of this concern, Hanoi was not populated, but was used as a place to use troops to fight Yuan Shao.

Later, after Yuan Shao was overthrown, Hanoi naturally became the hinterland of Chen Mo from the frontier. From then on, Chen Mo continued to migrate refugees from various places into Hanoi. There were also people from Hanoi who wanted to return to their hometown and began to bring them back to Hanoi.

Therefore, the population in Hanoi is very mixed. You can see people as far away as the northern border, the Qiang people in the northwest, and as close as the common people near Luoyang. The situation in the Central Plains where one family, one surname and one village is not available in Hanoi, but it is not.

Rarely seen.

Juyi Township is the name given by the people here to their place, which also contains the meaning of yearning for future life. As for what it was called before, no one knows. Most of the names in the township were given by enemies.

What is somewhat different from other townships is that the three elders in Juyi Township are too young.

Generally speaking, the three elders are officials who have reached official positions or people with high prestige in the countryside. Although the court is implementing the New Deal and officials can be promoted to officials, how many officials are there in the world? How many official positions are there? In fact, most people do not

There is not much hope. If the person who has just taken up the official position is a third elder, for this person, the official career is basically ruined. It would be good if he can climb to the rank of county magistrate in this life.

Juyi Township was just built here four years ago. Because there are abandoned villages but no one there, it is easy to rebuild. All you need to do is arrange people here.

The third elder named Chen Jin also arrived in Juyi Township at that time. The country people may not even know who the current emperor is, let alone the name of Chen Mo's eldest son. They just treat him as a young man with no ability and barely get along.

The three elders, while sympathetic to the young man, were also somewhat disdainful.

If you really have the ability, who would come to a place like this to become a third elder? I heard that he was promoted from Li Zheng. As for which Li he was originally in, no one knows. Anyway, it is not this Li in Juyi Township.

Moreover, their third elder seems to be a nerd. When he has nothing to do, he will hold a book and read it. He is also formal when talking to him, which is very uncomfortable. Therefore, at first, the people here are not familiar with both their living habits and their way of speaking.

Chen Jin, who was out of tune with them, was quite repulsive.

But Chen Jin didn't care about this. In three years, Chen Jin did a lot of things. He led the villagers to dig canals, build water trucks, build roads, and build bridges. They were excluded and excluded. But under Chen Jin's leadership,

The thirteen miles of Juyi Township have indeed been well maintained, the roads have been leveled, travel has become more convenient, and there is a good harvest every year. The rejection of Chen Jin has also been reduced unconsciously.

When Chen Jin has nothing to do, he likes to teach the children in the village to read. No matter what the elders think of him, the children in the village are quite fond of this third elder. In addition, the people in the village also like this third elder.

Start to respect me.

This young man is really knowledgeable, not the kind who just talks without practicing. Let’s not talk about knowledge, but the work in the fields is no worse than those of them who have been farming for half their lives. After three years, no matter what happens to the villagers,

Everyone likes to consult with Chen Jin, and even when someone's dog is sick, they come to see Chen Jin, which makes Chen Jin laugh and cry.

It took three years to build bridges and pave roads. At first, everyone did not understand this, but gradually, outside merchants began to come here, and Chen Jin would bring various upright or respected people from the countryside to the city.

In the village, I learned in detail what things cost and what they were worth, and I also picked smart people from the village to sell goods. The village began to have its own vendors. Living in it may not be too obvious about the changes in life, but if you think back to three years ago now, during this period,

The gap has become apparent, and therefore, the people of Juyi Township support this third elder from the bottom of their hearts.

"So awesome?" Chen Mo asked with a smile while sitting on the Hu bed in the courtyard, listening to the villagers' dialect that was not very understandable.

"That's right, let me tell you, no matter how young or old we are, there is no one in these ten miles and eight towns who can't even utter a word of disapproval. I heard that the county is interested in promoting people. This autumn, we may have to go to the county to become officials.

Well, let me tell you, with the abilities of our three elders, we are definitely not bad as county magistrates. You don’t know that the magistrate of Wen County has sent people to come to the house to arrange matchmaking, and he wants to marry his daughter to our three elders.

"The old man said with pride.

"The county magistrate..." Chen Mo thought for a while, then shook his head and said: "It's a little bit worse."

"How can you talk to me like you? Let me tell you, we three old men will definitely have a bright future in the future. How come we are so short!?" The old man frowned and glared at Chen Mo and said: "I said you have been talking for a long time, I'm such a bastard.

Do you want it or not?"

"Uh... Let's see again. When doing business, you have to shop around, right?" Chen Mo stood up and shook his head with a smile. He had already heard what he wanted to hear. As for buying goods... he didn't really come here to buy goods.

"In the whole Juyi Township, the goods I have here are the best. Hey, little brother, how about it being cheaper?" Seeing that Chen Mo was about to leave, the old man shouted quickly.

"Look again." Chen Mo shook his head, stood up, took Dian Wei and a group of guards to the carriage and got on the carriage. Under the regretful eyes of the old man, the carriage slowly left.

"Did you hear that?" Chen Mo looked at Cai Yan beside him and said with a smile.

"What do you think, husband?" Cai Yan asked, the smile on his face never stopping since Chen Mo got in the car.

"It's hard to say. After all, there aren't many things going on in this township. What the old man said is that he has established his prestige little by little with his own power and ability. But this can be done in one township and one mile. If it is done in one county, one county

, this method won’t work, not to mention a county, a county cannot be supported by one person, you have to be able to use people." Chen Mo shook his head, after all, there are fewer things in the countryside, and it is tiring to be busy alone.

Moreover, as long as he is not too arrogant and is willing to contact and gain recognition from the villagers, it is not difficult to achieve Chen Jin's current situation, at least from what he has seen along the way.

Among the things that happened, Chen Jin's talent in employing people was not revealed.

"You have to do everything by yourself, isn't it good?" Cai Yan asked doubtfully.

"The manpower is limited, so long as you know what to do. If the leader is too busy, his subordinates will become idle. This is not the way to serve. Do you think I have ever been so busy without stopping?" Chen Mo

Shaking his head, this is still a township. What will happen to a county, a prefecture, a state or even a country in the future?

Cai Yan nodded with some disappointment. When Chen Mo was in Luoyang, he spent most of his time at home with his mother, wife and children. Unless something big happened, he was rarely busy in the dark. However, the whole world was still managed in an orderly manner by Chen Mo. In the past, he was

It was like this when he was in Hedong, it was like this when he controlled Bingzhou, it was still like this after taking Guanzhong, and now even the Central Plains was taken. Chen Mo even thought of taking her to Hanoi for a trip, but looking at the princes in the world, how many people can be like Chen Mo?

Like?

The carriage continued to move forward and soon arrived at Juyi Village where Chen Jin was staying. It was hot summer. When Chen Mo and others asked for directions and found Chen Jin, they saw Chen Jin leading a group of children to read and play.

"Young Master!" Dian Wei's rough voice echoed in the fields, attracting many farmers to look back.

Chen Jin turned around and saw Dian Wei waving to him.

"Uncle Dian!?" Chen Jin was surprised and then overjoyed when he saw Dian Wei. He quickly ran to the car and saluted Dian Wei: "Uncle Dian, father is here too?"

"It's good to remember me." Chen Mo opened the car curtain and looked at his son with a smile.

"I've met my father!" Chen Jin saluted quickly.

"There's no need to be polite when you're out." Chen Mo waved his hand, looked at him carefully and said, "I'm a little thinner, but I'm also a lot stronger."

"Why is father here?" Chen Jin quickly stretched out his hand and took Chen Mo down.

"I didn't want to come, but you haven't been home for three years. Your mother begged me several times to bring her here to see you." Chen Mo jumped off the carriage, looked back at the carriage and said, "Why, I missed my son before, but now

Don’t you want to meet again?”

"Mother!?" Upon hearing this, Chen Jin quickly looked into the carriage and saw Cai Yan slowly walking out with Juan'er's support. Chen Mo reached out to pick her up and took his wife off the carriage.

"Mother, my child is unfilial!" Chen Jin quickly bowed down.

"My son is also working hard for his fame. It doesn't matter. Your father also said that you did a good job." Cai Yan helped his son up and saw Chen Mo looking over with a pleading look.

Chen Mo didn't answer, and he didn't say anything after all. He just looked at the children surrounding him, each of them a little curious and a little afraid. Well, Dian Wei stood next to Chen Mo, his fierce aura was released, and he didn't care about the children.

It's good to be scared to tears.

Chen Mo didn't deliberately get close to these children. There was no reason. He was just tired from the long journey.

The mother and son had not seen each other for three years and had endless things to talk about. Chen Mo took Dian Wei around and occasionally looked at the growth of the grain at the edge of the fields.

"Lord, do you understand this?" Dian Wei asked curiously.

"This is what billions of people like Han rely on, how can you not understand?" Chen Mo nodded.

"Um..." Dian Wei glanced curiously at Chen Jin, who was being pulled by Cai Yan to talk: "My lord, you and the eldest son have not seen each other for several years, why don't you go and talk?"

"There are so many words to talk about. Seeing that he is doing well now and has not gone astray, that's enough." Chen Mo shook his head. He didn't want to be too diplomatic with his family. He was already very tired outside and he didn't want to be there.

The family also wore masks in front of them. Looking at the water dragon in the distance, Chen Mo smiled and said: "Let's go over and have a look."
