Five days later, the appointment of Guangling City reached Huai'an, and Gao Cheng was officially appointed as the county lieutenant of Huai'an, and Gao Cheng's father was also a county official with a rank of 400 stones, and many years after his death, Gao Cheng brought Gao to the peak of its former glory. And stronger than before.

The county lieutenant, responsible for the security of the entire city, has the duty of chasing and fleeing, resisting bandits and bandits, and has 300 county warriors and 10 archers under his command. These are all part of the official establishment of the Han Dynasty.

After Gao Cheng was called the county lieutenant, he immediately arranged Jiang Qin and Pei Yuanshao into the county government to serve as horse archers, as for Lu Dai was still in charge of the water village, while Zhou Cang was calm and steady, serving as the commander of the family soldiers, and Zhang Chen used the main force to maintain the safety of the fields and shops. There is also the defense of Gaofu.

At this time, Gao Tai also swept the lair of the water thieves in White Horse Lake and returned, and he quietly returned to Gao Mansion with irrepressible joy on his face.

After meeting Gao Cheng, seeing that there was no one around, he immediately reported: "Childe, this time we found a large amount of gold in the lair of the water thieves, as well as the goods that these water thieves had robbed before, brocade, salt and iron, as well as rhino horns, tortoiseshells, and jewelry from Jiaozhou...... Roughly estimated, these things are worth tens of millions of dollars!"

Gao Cheng couldn't help but be shocked, "Tens of millions of dollars! There are so many, no wonder those families in Guangling hate water thieves so much, this kind of loss is a bit painful!"

Other families were broken, but Gao Cheng got a huge benefit, not only recovered all the huge expenses of the bandits, but also got more than ten times the interest for nothing!

However, these things are not five baht coins in circulation after all, and they need to be sold slowly.

Gao Cheng thought for a moment in his heart, and said: "We have obtained so much gold and goods, we must be cautious and not let other families know, otherwise, the Gao family will definitely be hostile to those families who have suffered heavy losses, and will even come to the door to ask for goods!"

Gao Tai hurriedly said: "Don't worry, Childe, I have already led someone to transport these things to a small island in White Horse Lake, and they will definitely not be discovered." ”

Gao Cheng nodded, although Gao Tai's ability is mediocre, his personality is stable and open-minded, whether it is Lu Dai, Zhou Cang, or Pei Yuanshao, they can all play their strengths under him.

He is very relieved to do things himself. I was about to say something, when my eyes suddenly flashed, and I saw my personal maid Ganyu walking quickly, and before the person approached, a fresh and fragrant smell faintly came.

"Childe, someone from outside the house visited, saying that it was the steward of the Mi family in Xuzhou! The other party also brought five carts of gifts!

"The steward of the Xuzhou Mi clan?"

Gao Cheng didn't expect that he had just received the appointment, and before he went to the county government to officially take office, Mi Shi, who was far away in Xuzhou, got the news. The moment he thought of Mi's, his heart suddenly moved, didn't he have tens of millions of dollars of goods in his hands, if he passed Mi's channels, he would definitely be able to realize these things soon.

Thinking of this, he immediately asked Gao Tai to greet him, and in less than a moment, a familiar figure appeared in front of him. The person sent by the Mi clan was the Mi steward who had a little friendship at the beginning.

"Congratulations to Gongzi Gao, known as the county lieutenant of Huai'an!"

With a smile on his face, the Mi steward immediately bowed after coming, and then said: "After my uncle heard the news of Gao Gongzi's entry, he immediately asked the villain to come to congratulate!

Gao Cheng waved his hand, and Ganyu beside him immediately stepped forward and took the gift list from the other party's hand.

"Mi Guan happened to come here, I just need trouble Brother Zizhong!"

He took Mi Steward and Gao Tai to the hall together, and then told him what he had gained from suppressing bandits, and wanted to cooperate with Mi Clan, and deal with these things through Mi Clan's channels all over the world!

If it is a million dollars or so of goods, Mi Guan can handle it himself, but the current things are worth tens of millions, and he does not dare to make decisions on his own, so he can only send someone to report to Mi Zhu quickly.

The Mi family's strength is mainly concentrated in Xiapi, and the relationship with the family in Xuzhou is not very good, especially Guangling is located in the southernmost part of Xuzhou, and the family here has little contact with the Mi family at all.

With the favor of saving his second brother and little sister before, Mi Zhu will definitely agree to this matter. So Gao Cheng didn't worry too much, and asked Gao Tai's hospitality manager of good wine and meat to go to the island of White Horse Lake to inspect the goods first.

......

On the second day, Gao Cheng wore an official robe, a ribbon, and a long sword hanging from his waist, and then led Jiang Qin and Pei Yuanshao to run in the direction of the county government.

When they arrived at the place, the two officials in front of the county government hurriedly bowed their heads and bowed their waists to greet them, "Greetings to the county lieutenant!"

The two took the initiative to take the reins of the three horses and led the mounts to the horse corridor. I'm afraid I will accidentally provoke this high prince.

Gao Cheng snorted, and then entered the county government, first went to meet the county commander Huang Zun, and then gathered many subordinates of the county lieutenant to start his official appointment.

"County lieutenant, this is our Huai'an county warrior roster, and there are documents that have been accumulated for many days!" A few scholars didn't dare to play any tricks in front of Gao Cheng, a famous county lieutenant.

Gao Cheng has been an emperor in the previous world for many years, and he has already exercised his ability, and with a simple flip, he knows the situation in Huai'an today. At this time, with the chaos in the world, there are nearly 10 million displaced people in Yuzhou and Yanzhou, who began to wander in all directions and turned into displaced people.

At this time, there were also displaced people in Huai'an City. Some of these able-bodied homeless people escaped all the way, and on the way, they plundered food everywhere and turned into thieves. These people are not strong, and they dare not provoke the famous families, but they target ordinary people.

In the two months that Gao Cheng trained sailors, many people have been poisoned by these thieves, as long as they go out of Huai'an City for twenty miles, they can find a mountain forest at random, and there must be hidden bandits who occupy the mountains and plunder the four directions.

Seeing this, Gao Cheng couldn't help frowning, Huai'an is in the two important places, and it is quite rich compared to other places, which has attracted a large number of displaced people who want to live.

At this time, calculating the time, it has been several months since the Battle of Changshe, after Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun destroyed the Yellow Turban in Yuzhou, they must have divided their troops into two routes, Huangfu Song went north to deal with Zhang Jiao, and Zhu Jun went to Nanyang to deal with Zhang Mancheng.

Not surprisingly, the yellow scarf is about to be destroyed.

But the fall of the Yellow Turban was only the beginning of troubled times. When a large number of Yellow Turban rebels have no way to live, they will definitely flock to the rich places of Yanzhou, Qingzhou and Xuzhou. Snatching food and grass.

"It's not my turn to worry about the Yellow Turban Rebellion for the time being, let's find a way to deal with these thieves in Huai'an first!"

Gao Cheng sighed slightly in his heart, in his opinion, if more and more homeless people are not settled, the thieves will only be suppressed repeatedly, but it is the duty of the county order to settle the homeless people and sort out the civil affairs, and he, the county lieutenant, can only be responsible for military affairs, and cannot exceed his authority without authorization.

Then he made up his mind and quickly processed the accumulated documents, most of which were about the county Yong's money and grain accounts, as well as weapons maintenance and other things, nothing serious.

When the paperwork was cleared, he immediately called Jiang Qin and Pei Yuanshao, and asked them to lead each of the 150 county warriors to exterminate the thieves in Hutou Mountain and Dashishan outside the city. It must be eradicated first.
