    After dinner, the conversation continued until the second watch, and the Zhao family father and son left wisely.

    The rain continued on the way back. Zhao Hao sat on the boat and watched the water level on the river rise again, feeling uneasy in his heart.

    If this is the case in the upper reaches, the situation in the lower reaches of Taihu Lake must be even worse.

    I¡¯m afraid that as soon as my father takes office, he will face a big exam

    ¡°Hey, I don¡¯t know if the second master is mentally prepared.

    Thinking of this, he looked back at his father and saw Zhao Shouzheng sitting cross-legged at the short table, staring blankly at the two notes in front of him.

    "What is father worried about?" It is Mr. Zhao's unshirkable responsibility to relieve the second master.

    "Hey, what should I say?" Mr. Zhao scratched his head, looked at his son with a wry smile and said:

    "Yesterday, after listening to Zhang Zhixian's experience, my father felt that it is not difficult at all to be a good county magistrate. But today, after listening to Haigong's teachings, my father felt that it is really not easy to be a good county magistrate.  Ah! What do you think is going on?"

    "The answer lies in my father's own words." Zhao Hao said with a faint smile: "It is easy to be a good county magistrate, but it is not easy to be a good county magistrate."

    "Indeed." Zhao Shouzheng nodded with deep understanding and said, "After hearing what Zhang Zhixian said, my father didn't want to work hard at all. But after listening to Haigong's words, my father felt that he still had a lot to learn."

    "It depends on what kind of official my father wants to be." Zhao Hao opened the window with a smile and reached out to catch a handful of cold rainwater.

    "Are you a comfortable and comfortable man like Zhang Zhixian? Or are you a Qingtian man who seeks hardship for himself and serves the country and the people like Haigong? Or is he going to take a different path from them?"

    "Is this" Zhao Shouzheng couldn't help but feel troubled. He thought he would choose the former without hesitation, but for some reason, he couldn't say it out loud.

    "There's no rush." ??Zhao Hao shook his head gently, shook his wet right hand, closed the window and said, "You can think about it slowly. There will be plenty of time to think about this issue when you get to Kunshan."

    "Yeah." Zhao Shouzheng nodded and asked the most practical question: "What about us now?"

    "Right now." Zhao Hao thought about it and said realistically: "Obviously the former method is more in line with our actual situation. But the latter method is more conducive to us managing Kunshan well."

    "so what?"

    "Let's see if we can combine them and use them both." Zhao Hao pinched his chin and said.

    Zhao Shouzheng smiled and pushed both books to his son and said, "Then I'll leave it to my son"

    "I don't understand this kind of thing either." Zhao Hao smiled bitterly and said: "The importance of every rule and the size of each rule depends on the power and responsibility. There is a lot of knowledge here, and a layman can't do it."

    "Then" Zhao Shouzheng thought carefully and said, "There is no one among us who has ever done this."

    "Don't worry, father." Zhao Hao showed an expectant smile and said, "I will find a knowledgeable person for you to come back tomorrow."

    ¡°More than just being knowledgeable, it can be said that he is the ancestor of masters and the first master in history.

    Zhao Shouzheng was overjoyed when he heard this.

    ??~~

    The next day, Mr. Zhao got up early and dragged Zhao Hao out of bed.

    ¡°Hurry up, hurry up, aren¡¯t we going to invite an expert today?¡±

    "Then there's no need to be so anxious?" Zhao Hao rubbed his sleepy eyes and muttered, "The sun hasn't come out yet."

    ¡°It¡¯s raining, where can we go to see the sun?¡± Zhao Shouzheng squatted down to put on his son¡¯s boots, and couldn¡¯t help but said excitedly:

    "As a father, I am thirsty for talents and I don't want to delay for a moment!"

    "It's worn backwards" Zhao Hao said helplessly.

    "Well¡­¡­"

    Ma Xianglan covered her mouth and chuckled, replaced the second master who was causing trouble, and quickly helped Zhao Hao wash and dress neatly.

    "Let Cai Ming send a car to take you to Wuji today." Zhao Hao looked in the mirror and saw the young man who was in high spirits again and nodded with satisfaction.

    "Young master, you don't bring your secretary with you" Secretary Ma pretended to be resentful. In fact, she was so happy to be alone with Zhao Hao these days, right?

    "You wouldn't want to go to a place like the one we went to today." Zhao Hao chuckled, and when he saw Secretary Ma's mouth slightly open in the mirror, he gave her a helpless look.  "Not the kind of place you thought."

    "I haven't thought about anything." Secretary Ma smiled and trimmed Zhao Hao's hair. The young master couldn't even invite Qinhuai oirans like Qi Jingyun and Zheng Yanru.

    "What are you going to do in Wuji?"

    "Ms. Jiang shouldIt should still be there, right?  "

    "He's here." Of course she is. How could she leave if you don't leave?  Miss Xueying is still waiting to accompany you again.

    "That's good, ask her to purchase food, medicine, sacks, ropes" Zhao Hao thought about it and said: "Anyway, I want everything that can be used to fight floods, as much as I can."

    "Yes, young master." Ma Xianglan suddenly felt her heart tightening, realizing that her comfortable days were probably coming to an end.

    ??~~

    The father and son went out in a carriage today.

    A convoy of three double-driving carriages headed north along Xihuangchenggen Street.

    The raindrops pattered on the car wall, making both of them a little anxious.

    "Oh my god, why does this thief keep falling?" Even the slow Zhao Shouzheng realized that he was in trouble.  "It was sunny the day I came back."

    "Yes." Zhao Hao nodded and said, "My uncle said this morning that colleagues from the Water Resources Department told him that the water level in Taihu Lake has been one foot higher than the same period last year. This year's flood situation is destined to be very severe."

    "Hey, after the governor summons us, we should go to Kunshan as soon as possible. I feel more and more uneasy." Zhao Shouzheng sighed and said, "I didn't even sleep well last night."

    "Isn't it because I am thirsty for talents?" Zhao Hao asked with a smile.

    "They all have their reasons." Zhao Shouzheng said with a sarcastic smile: "In the first half of the night, I am thirsty for talents, and in the second half of the night, I am worried about the people."

    "Ha" After saying this, the father and son burst out laughing at the same time.

    The two men had a clear understanding of each other. They both thought about this time last year, when they were racking their brains to qualify for the provincial examination.  Unexpectedly, a year later, I would start worrying about Fangfang's safety.

    ¡°Sometimes this life situation is so fucking fucked up

    Unconsciously, the carriage passed Taipingmen and stopped in front of Taiping Embankment.

    When the father and son got out of the car, they saw the three law divisions of Nanjing standing side by side in the shape of "pin" on the bank of Xuanwu Lake.

    The first one to bear the brunt was the Nanjing Criminal Department.

    Looking at the sign of the Nanjing Ministry of Punishment, Zhao Shouzheng couldn't help but smile and asked: "Son, could this expert be an official of the Ministry of Punishment? That's a good relationship. At least we don't have to worry about the punishment name."

    "Haha, let's see." Zhao Hao gave it up and focused his attention on the small island in the middle of Xuanwu Lake, which is the famous Houhu Huangceku.

    ¡°It¡¯s a pity that it has been worthless for a long time¡± Zhao Hao sighed secretly.

    Hai Rui told him that through his personal clearing of farmland in Chun'an and Xingguo counties, as well as the comparison of grain and tax files while working at the Ministry of Household Affairs, he could clearly see that although the Yellow Book had been updated for ten years, the number of acres recorded in the Yellow Book had gone far.  It is divorced from the actual situation - the population is only half of the actual number, the farmland is only 70%, and more than 80% of them are owned by people with high status

    ¡®This is all the suffering of the people!  ¡¯

    The words "Hai Gong" were still echoing in Zhao Hao's ears until he saw Hua Shuyang and a fifth-grade official holding umbrellas coming out of the Yamen.
