Chapter 712

The next two days, Chen Li was busy in his new territory.

He designated the official office of the City Lord's Mansion as "Ningyuan Hall", which is the office of Ningyuan Hou. In the future, local officials in various places will deal with it if they have any reports, and several guards will be left on weekdays.

The central residential area is the main body of the "Ningyuan Marquis Mansion", and its daily life is here.

The big garden behind is too big and wasteful. It takes a long time to renovate it, so you can only take it slowly.

With the assistance of Sun Tai, the Marquis' Mansion quickly recruited the first batch of servants.

Chen Likai's remuneration is very high, which is a great temptation for the people of Guiyun City, who are in chaos at the bottom of the economy. There are many people who sign up.

He personally screened and used information exploration techniques to check each person's basic information and related characters. Only then did he choose to hire someone with good character.

In the end, there were about ten young men and women under the age of twenty, ten young men and thirty years old, and several middle-aged people who were slightly older.

In this way, the hygiene, diet and other aspects of the home will be temporarily solved.

In terms of safety, there are 200 guards to call, which is enough for the time being.

Three days later, Sun Tai came to report that local officials from all over the country had arrived, so he waited for the orders of the marquis.

Chen Li asked everyone to wait in Ningyuantang, went out and went around the streets, walked through the front door, and entered his office area.

After cleaning and small-scale renovation, Ningyuan Hall has now become a majestic and solemn appearance, and the old feeling has been wiped out.

In the spacious court, more than a hundred people in different clothes were sitting in a row.

Well... there are too many people, so I can't arrange a table for banquets, so I can only move a bunch of chairs for everyone to sit on.

When Sun Tai saw Chen Li coming, he said loudly: "Marquis Ningyuan is here, everyone is quiet."

Everyone looked at each other.

Seeing Chen Li, I couldn't help but be surprised.

"What a young marquis, this... isn't even twenty years old?"

"I became a marquis at a young age. I'm afraid I'm going to go through the back door?"

"You know a hammer, the emperor's back door is so easy to walk on?"

Instead of being quiet, everyone started to talk in a low voice.

Chen Li wore a jazz uniform and walked onto the throne, sat down calmly, and put his sword aside.

"Have you finished the discussion?" he said lightly.

His seat is six steps higher than the hall. Although it is not as grand as the emperor's dragon chaise, it is also very expensive, with fine carvings and spaciousness.

Sitting on it, the whole person's temperament has risen to a higher level, making people afraid to look at him.

Everyone became quiet at once.

Chen Li nodded with satisfaction and said, "You are all local officials of Yungui Island, which are related to the people's livelihood and civil affairs here. I am the Lord of Yungui Island, and you will need your assistance in the future. Let me introduce myself first, I will get to know you first."

After speaking, he pointed to the person on the left side of the front row, "You come first, and then introduce yourself in turn."

"yes."

The man who was called immediately did as he said, "Marquis, the official name is He Kui, is a county magistrate of Yunpu County. He has been in office for eleven years."

"Xiaoguan Zhang Qing is the head of Pangshan Township, and has been in office for 18 years..."

"The young Shen Wenlong is the village chief of Xialin Village. He has been the leader of nearly twenty years."

“…”

Everyone reported their homes one by one, basically only talking about their names and responsible areas.

However, Chen Li used information exploration techniques one by one to see, but he saw a lot of information that made him frown.

For example, among the "labels" of these people, many people are marked as "corrupt officials" and "bully", and the numbers after the brackets are not small.

After the last person introduced himself, Chen Li had already known about these local officials.

Then he spoke, "Yungui Island has a county, three counties, twelve townships, and one hundred and thirteen villages. Twenty-one dead bodies who do not do anything, eighteen bullies who bully the people, and thirteen officials and thieves who are greedy for money and abuse their power... It's okay, it's better than I thought."

As soon as he said this, the lobby suddenly became silent.

Some people who are more greedy for money begin to realize that the situation is not good.

But there are also some people who can't sit still and have no intention of being afraid.

"National officials at the township and village levels are not ranked. I won't care about doing something wrong and just get rid of their posts. However, the county magistrate is a court official. The three-dimensional person here does not serve the people, but is actually very greedy. He just wants to make money from the people and the silver mines, and he is very brave."

Chen Li sneered.

The three county magistrates' expressions are not very good at this moment.

They didn't expect that Chen Li started to investigate them as soon as he came to Yunguidao. At this time, seeing Chen Li's bad expression, two of the three were restless.

"Marty, where did you... hear about it? Lower official, lower official..."

The county magistrate of Yunpu County hurriedly wanted to explain something, but hesitated for a long time but didn't say anything.

"Your scandal is just inquire about your ugly things."

Chen Li said lightly: "Today I will not pursue the mistakes you have made before, but those who should be removed from their posts will be exempted. I will choose another person to take over your position. After the person named is called back, you will be ready to hand over the work."

Then, he read more than 40 people with serious negative images in the "label".

When he finished reading, the lobby was already silent.

Everyone who is pronounced with a name feels cold in his heart, and he never expects that he will be dismissed so soon.

"Sun Tai, have you remembered it?"

"Mr. Marquis, I have all recorded it."

Sun Tai sat in a small seat next to him and wrote a list full of paper.

"Mr. Marquis, I have an objection to this matter!"

At this time, someone suddenly stood up.

It was He Kui, the first county magistrate of Yunpu County who made a speech.

"Say." Chen Li said.

He Kui was about to be dismissed, and he said in dissatisfaction in his heart, "You are a marquis named by Your Majesty, and you have your rights. But the subordinates govern a county without any contribution and work hard! Today, just by saying a word and giving no reason, he will dismiss the subordinates! This move... the subordinates are dismissed!"

"Yes, I'm not convinced! We're here and there, and nothing happened every year. You, the marquis, were going to dismiss us as soon as you came. What's the reason?!"

"That's right... As the saying goes, a strong dragon does not suppress local snakes, we..."

After He Kui finished speaking, many people around him immediately agreed.

Of course, more people choose to wait and see and dare not challenge Ning Yuanhou directly.

Hearing these people's words, Chen Li couldn't help laughing.

He picked up the sword that was placed aside and said, "He Kui, there is something you are right. The marquis has the right to be a marquis. My right is to control everything on this island, including you. Here, I will appoint and remove anyone who wants to dismiss him. If I contradict me, no one dares to speak out."

"There is another saying, you are wrong. There is no saying that "there is hard work without credit". You are in this position to do things for the people. Instead, you not only do things, but you exploit the people everywhere and take advantage of them. I am tolerant and generous in such behavior, not killing you."

"I would like to remind you that you don't think that you have hired a few thugs, are greedy for some money and have some capital, and can do whatever you want."
