Chapter 393 on the mediocrity of the former magistrate

The people who finally got rid of their enthusiasm rushed to the county office, and Tang Jin and the others were obviously relieved. Sometimes it's not a good thing to be too popular.

"Anyway...... I'm a county magistrate...... Somewhat...... It's broken. ”

Looking at the plaque in front of him that was crooked by half, the wall collapsed by half, and the county government was basically on the verge of scrapping, Tang Jin inexplicably had a sense of déjà vu when he saw Dali Temple for the first time, and it was even more broken than the original Dali Temple.

"Forget it, let's go check it out first." Tang Jin shook his head helplessly.

Qin Hai and the others who followed also followed.

Gently pushing open the door that was almost so rotten that it had no effect, Tang Jin and the others rushed in. Sure enough, it looked broken on the outside, and even more broken on the inside.

The grassy courtyard, the lobby with a big hole in the roof, and the backyard...... I didn't see it, but it shouldn't be much better.

"Who are you! The county government is heavy, how can you break in! ”

At this moment, a rather serious voice stopped several people. Tang Jin and the others followed the prestige, and saw a tall man wearing a washed white soap coat, holding a water and fire stick in his hand, looking at Tang Jin and the others with a serious face.

Behind him, there were a few soap-clothed officials who hurriedly sorted out their clothes, and seeing that Tang Jin and the others looked at each other, they simply didn't tidy up their clothes, and picked up the water and fire sticks and stared at a few people with grim faces.

Tang Jin glanced at it with interest, "Yo, there is even a martial artist, although it is only an individual cultivator, but it looks pretty good." ”

This body cultivation refers to the tall man who is the leader, and from his surging qi and blood that is more than ordinary people, Tang Jin can easily see that he is a body cultivator. However, looking at the realm of that block, it is estimated that it is not much higher, and it is good to be barely an ordinary master.

"I'm the new magistrate, you ...... Is this the catch? ”

Tang Jin showed his official seal and looked at a few people with interest.

"Sir!" Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly put away the appearance of a great enemy, and quickly lined up and knelt down together.

"I'll wait to see Lord Zhixian!"

Tang Jin nodded with satisfaction, and while putting away the official seal, he thought that everyone walked over, looked at the strong man who was the leader, and said, "What is your name?" ”

"Master Hui, the little one is named Gaode."

"Gaode? Are you familiar with the surrounding roads? Tang Jin subconsciously complained.

Gao De was slightly stunned, obviously not understanding the meaning of Tang Jin's words, but he still said respectfully: "The villain has grown up in this county since he was a child, and he is familiar with the surrounding roads. ”

"Don't call me master, I don't know how old you think I am, call me young master." Tang Jin waved his hand and corrected everyone's names.

"So you're the only one left in this county?"

Although there are not many arrests in a county office, it will not be less than only the five in front of them, compared to the fact that some of them were dismissed when the former magistrate left, these few should have volunteered to stay and wait for their new officials.

"No, the little ones are all the catchers of this county government."

"What's that? Just the five of you? All? Didn't the previous magistrate work? Tang Jin was surprised. There are a total of five catches, and you can't even knock on the water and fire sticks in the hall, right?

"This ...... Truly. The predecessor of the county magistrate, Chen Baixiang, has never been promoted to the court since he took office, nor has he tried a case, but just stayed in the backyard to have fun. Gao De still gritted his teeth as he spoke, obviously what the former magistrate did was more than just what he appeared.

"Okay, let's not talk about the past. Now that I'm here, everything has to change. Now, Master Ben has something to give you, I wonder if you have faith? ”

"But by your lordship's orders!" Gao De said excitedly. Although the new magistrate has the name of Qingtian, after all, he has never seen a real person, and Gao De was still skeptical about him before. Now that as soon as he took office, he said that he wanted to change the unhealthy trend of the past, how could this not make him excited?

"I have here a thousand taels of silver, take it. Tomorrow I will hire some craftsmen, buy some bricks and stones, repair the county government and the hall, and remove the grass in the yard. Don't make it so happy that the county government will collapse halfway through the trial in the future. By the way, don't care about the money, it's not enough to come to me again, but the quality must be good. ”

As Tang Jin spoke, he took out the one thousand taels of start-up capital given by the imperial court from his arms. For others, this is the only amount of money, but for Tang Jin...... It's not a matter at all, that is, he didn't know about the county government in advance

If this is the case, otherwise Liu Yuqing would have arranged a few people to take care of the mushrooms when transporting the grain.

"Yes! The villain must do a good job! ”

As a result of the silver ticket with trembling hands, Gao De felt a sense of unreality. One thousand taels, I have never seen so much money in my life, even Chen Yuanwai estimates that it is impossible to take out so much money without blinking, right? Now the magistrate has given himself without hesitation, what does this mean? It means that people believe in themselves! How can I live up to the trust of the magistrate? This thing has to be done beautifully!

In fact, when Tang Jin gave this silver ticket, he didn't mean anything else, and it had nothing to do with trust or distrust. He just didn't know about this place, and wanted to find someone who was familiar with Yulin County to outsource the work. As for worrying about the other party running away with money...... Jokes, let's not talk about whether this product can escape the pervasive intelligence network of Dali Temple, this thousand taels of silver alone is not a very large amount, and it will run away. A letter was sent, and the next day the people from Tianlu Trading House were able to pull the materials and the master over.

"Well, as soon as possible."

After saying that, Tang Jin patted Gao De on the shoulder and led everyone to the backyard. Stepping through a moon gate, Tang Jin felt as if he had stepped into a world.

If the county government is a dilapidated house, this backyard is a luxury villa.

Antique pavilions, chic gardens, and southern-style courtyards. This backyard is not much better than his Shizi Mansion in Zhendong City, and it is estimated that there is a gap between the charm and the material, and the layout alone is really the same.

"Later, I will tell the Dali Temple to give me a good check, I don't know how many people have been scavenged." In a poor county, such a luxury mansion was created, and the predecessor's ability to embezzle was really outrageous.

Such a thing has to be sent to prison for anything, it has nothing to do with justice or injustice, purely because of ...... You've got to clean up your mess, bastard!

"But it saves me money for a backyard."

If the backyard is as bad as the county government, Tang Jin and the others will have to stay in the inn today, but look at this town...... It doesn't look like there's an inn......
