Chensheng County is not far from the sea, just by the sea, and there are about seven or eight villages near and far, most of which depend on fishing for their livelihood.

It's just that the seaside is not very peaceful, there are often robbers and bandits, the money is still small, and the safety of life is a big thing, and over time, some capable people have moved to the mainland, and the rest of the people are rich and waiting to be robbed, which is also the main reason for the decline of Chen Sheng County.

Zhao Sheng, the head catcher, was the biggest official in the county before Yan Xiubai came, he looked less than forty years old, he was tall and majestic, and he knew that he was powerful at a glance.

For Yan Xiubai's arrival, he was very excited, or too excited, the man with stubble on his face rubbed his hands, and almost lost two male tears.

It's no wonder that he is so out of shape, Yan Xiubai also learned afterwards that Chen Shengxian has not been a county official for nearly a year, and the affairs in the county were temporarily handled by the master and him at first, and then the court delayed sending the county order, and they didn't get their salaries for most of the year.

For more than three months, he has basically worked everything in the county alone, and everything else is fine, but once he deals with paperwork-related matters, he, who only knows a few words, is directly dumbfounded.

When Zhao Zhutou saw Yan Xiubai, it was like seeing a savior!

When Yan Xiubai followed him into the house, his first impression was: chaos!

All kinds of documents and files were piled up messily, almost all the corners that could be stuffed were piled up, not to mention the bookshelves, the only long table in the room was also full, the sunlight was blocked by the windows, only some dim light could shine in, the air was cloudy, and a musty smell could be clearly smelled.

Yan Xiubai frowned almost immediately.

Zhao Zhutou was a little embarrassed, he hurriedly went over to open the window, dredged the air, and then rubbed his hands and said: "There are few literate people in the yamen, since the master left, no one has come here, don't worry, I'll call a few people to come later, help clean up." ”

Yan Xiubai waved his hand, indicating that he didn't mind, he walked around the room, and said gently: "This official has just arrived, and he knows very little about the affairs of Chen Sheng County, and many places still need to rely on Zhao Zhutou. ”

Zhao Sheng obviously didn't expect him to say this, and he couldn't help but have a deeper impression of this new county magistrate, he waved his hand again and again and said that he didn't dare to take it, but the expression on his face was relaxed and happy.

"Name: Zhao Sheng

Position: Chief Catcher of Chen Sheng County

+10 opinion

Please keep up the good work!"

The sudden sound did not surprise Yan Xiubai, the curvature of the corners of his mouth did not change at all, he just thought very calmly, it seems that this Zhao Zhutou is indeed a sincere person who has no heart, this person is available, there is no need to be guarded.

It took an afternoon, and Yan Xiubai, under the guidance of Zhao Sheng, finally knew some about the situation in Chen Sheng County.

"As you said, bandits are so rampant in this place, the court doesn't care?" he was a little puzzled.

"I used to manage it, about three years ago, Songjiang Mansion transferred a general soldier, about 500 people, at first it did have a certain deterrent effect, but then the bandits hooked up with the gang of overseas gangsters, the two sides fought a few battles, our side failed to win, and even the transferred adult was folded at sea, after that, no matter how much you go, the top will not send troops to our side. ”

Yan Xiubai frowned, although he had copied books in the Hanlin Academy for three years, it didn't mean that he didn't know anything, and even knew a few more than others in some aspects, for example, the current prefect of Songjiang Mansion was not the same as the one three years ago, but was born in a thousand families.

Because of Wan Guifei, the Wanjia family is now powerful, but the Wanjia itself does not have any talents who can take the shot, only the miasma in the court, and Li Xunhuan resigned because of the anger of the Wanjiacai.

Yan Xiubai is only a small Qipin county magistrate now, he may be suspicious of the Wan family in Songjiang Mansion, guessing whether there is something hidden in it, but he will not be stupid enough to fight against the Wan family.

He was silent for a moment, and then said in a deep voice: "Do you just let it go and let this coastal village become the backyard of thieves?!"

When Zhao Sheng heard this, he immediately said: "That's not enough, since I knew that the top would not send troops, my subordinates gathered some young men in their prime, including their subordinates, a total of eighty-six people, barely able to respond to emergencies." ”

This is not bad, Yan Xiubai nodded approvingly.

Just when he was about to ask something, he heard the sound of footsteps running quickly towards this side, Yan Xiubai turned his head to look, and saw a small head poking in through the window.

The flexible eyes slipped around the room, and Ji Ji said crisply: "Sister Shiyin asked me to call you to eat!"

Hearing this, Yan Xiubai didn't have time to say anything, but he heard Zhao Sheng scratch his head and say embarrassedly: "Look at me, it's going to be dark, the adults must be working hard, I also pulled the adults and said for a long time, the adults go back and rest, and the rest will be talked about tomorrow." ”

Yan Xiubai thought for a while and said, "It's okay." Then he personally sent Zhao Sheng to the door, and in this way, his favorability increased by another five points.

The place where the county order lives and the county government are connected together, which is a binary courtyard, but fortunately, there are still a lot of rooms, and three people don't have to worry about not being able to live in one room.

The yard has been empty for nearly a year, and it is naturally not clean, and the old Chen who I saw earlier specially brought two people here, and it took an afternoon to barely clean up the people who can live there.

When Yan Xiubai led Ji Ji back to the backyard, the lights were already lit up in the room, and the smell in the air had not completely dissipated, mixed with the fragrance of food.

There are three pairs of bowls and chopsticks neatly placed on the table, there are not many dishes, two vegetarians, one meat and one soup, all of which are from Lin Shiyin's hands.

Yan Xiubai took a bite of the soup and raised his thumb appreciatively.

Lin Shiyin smiled, she worked very hard today, packing up the house, sorting out her luggage, and cooking dinner, she had never done these subordinate work, she was very tired, but there was an indescribable fulfillment.

"Wash your hands before eating. She walked over and took Ji Ji's hand, "The sugar candy must also be washed, otherwise you are not allowed to eat it." ”

Ji Ji was a little embarrassed and a little helpless, and said with a struggle: "Can you change your name, Ji Ji is very good." "Sugar candy or something, he's not a girl!

Lin Shiyin smiled softly and softly, "I think it's very good." ”

"I think it's good, too. Yan Xiubai on the side fell into the well.

Two votes to one, the protest is invalid.

After more than a month of traveling, the three of them were also tired, so they went back to their rooms early to rest after dinner.

Yan Xiubai was lying on the bed, but he couldn't sleep, and the bed under him didn't know which era it was, and when he moved slightly, it creaked, so that he couldn't sleep even more.

The night here is too quiet, without the hustle and bustle of the capital, and suddenly it reminded him of a long time ago, when he was in Changgemen, he was punished by Master Yang Qingyue for stealing wine and drinking, and the scene on the back mountain wall was also such a damp and cold smell, and his ears were quiet as if he could only hear his own heartbeat.

He still hadn't figured out why he had walked down the road in such a good way, and in the blink of an eye, he had changed time and space, and a few hundred years later, he woke up in another person who looked very similar to him, and he had a strange self-proclaimed system in his head.

After knowing that the current dynasty has been separated from the Tang Dynasty for hundreds of years, he is terrified, and even the Tang Dynasty of this world may not be the Tang Dynasty where he has lived for more than 20 years, because the Tang Dynasty of this world has Li Bai, but there is no Yang Yifei, there is Lingyan Pavilion and Tang Xuanzong but there is no Changge Gate, Tibetan Sword Villa, Chunyang Palace, etc., these martial arts sects that he is familiar with.

Yan Xiubai is just a very ordinary disciple of the Changge Sect, he is not the best in martial arts, and his medical skills are not the most top-notch, at best, he is a little better than other senior brothers and sisters in painting, he doesn't understand, how can he catch up with this kind of adventure that he doesn't want at all?!

He just wants to go back!

Although the master ancestor was a little stricter, the brothers and sisters were a little boring, and Master Qingyue chattered about something if he had nothing to do, he still wanted to go back.

This is not his home.

Then the thing that called itself the system said that if you want to go back, you have to complete the task, he is a loyal minister and a good minister, and his task is to assist the emperor, sympathize with the people, and become a generation of virtuous ministers who will be famous through the ages.

He has seen a lot of virtuous ministers and good ministers, after all, Changgemen is the hermitage of virtuous ministers and good ministers.

The poet immortal Li Bai, the poet saint Du Fu, the poet Buddha Wang Wei, and Zhang Jiuling, who was the prime minister, which is not a famous minister through the ages, Changgemen has always taken Kuang Fu Sheji as his own responsibility, but Yan Xiubai is not one of them.

He may be the laziest person in Changgemen, he never thought of being an official, let alone Kuang Fu Sheji, his name will remain in the annals of history, and his life is only one person and one piano, walking all over the rivers and lakes, and painting all the beauties.

And those brothers and sisters who have this ambition didn't wear it, but let him, a person with no intention, encounter such an adventure, the world is absurd, nothing more than this.

Although it is not what he wants to be an official, this is the only chance after all, so no matter how difficult it is, he will do it.

He wanted to go home.

Yan Xiubai got up and began to draw up some future plans by candlelight.

There are many problems in Chensheng County, but the two most important ones are banditry and poverty.

He only has theoretical knowledge of many things, but he knows very well that actual implementation and paper talk are two different things.

Yan Xiubai is not a person without self-confidence, but he will not be overly proud, and slowly explore and implement, which is different from painting, which is something that cannot be done at one touch.

By the time he lay back in bed again, it was already the middle of the night, and listening to the creaking sound in the haze, he decided that the first thing he would do when he woke up tomorrow was to buy a new bed and come back
