The people of Gutian County were surprised to find that overnight in the county traffic crossings and crowds gathered in the county post a notice covered with the bright red seal of the county official, Gutian County county orders do not know how many appointments, but rarely issued this kind of public notice, because the previous county orders are all empty shelves, issued decrees and no one listened, so these county orders are naturally too lazy to waste paper, pen and ink, so this is also a rare thing for the people of Gutian, immediately aroused the people's onlookers.

There are not many literate people in this era, but naturally there are also "scholars" who have been educated and learned for a few years but have not been able to gain fame in the examination to help them interpret, because only at this time can they show the respect of "scholars", at this time, in front of a notice at the city gate, there is a "scholar" wearing a long shirt is shaking his head to read the notice written by Guo Zhiyuan, and around him there are many people who are watching the excitement in three layers and three layers outside, "Justice of the Peace" is a new term for them, Naturally, it immediately aroused their heated discussion.

"What is this Justice of the Peace? It sounds quite majestic, but anyone who abides by the law and has no bad deeds on weekdays is eligible to run, which means that I can also choose this Justice of the Peace, haha! ......" laughed a stout dark-skinned man in the crowd.

Someone immediately scoffed and said: "Cut, Chen Heipi, you don't pee to take care of yourself, just like you, you also want to choose a Justice of the Peace?" Dream your big dreams! ......", and the people next to him also laughed.

The Chen Heipi was so laughed that his face was red and his ears were red, and his neck stiffened and replied: "Why can't I choose a Justice of the Peace?" The notice is clearly stated, but all those who abide by the law and have no bad deeds on weekdays are eligible to run for election, and they are also stamped with the official seal of the county official. ……”

At this time, the man in the long shirt who shook his head and read the announcement couldn't listen anymore, glanced at the black skin of Chen, and sneered: "Being qualified doesn't mean that you can be selected!" The proclamation also said that you should choose the one who will contribute the most among the people, what do you contribute? I don't know a single word and want to be a Justice of the Peace? It's ridiculous! ……”

Chen Heipi didn't dare to be tough on this man in a long shirt, and said with an embarrassed smile: "That's what I said, but our master can choose, in terms of contribution, who is as big as my master?!" ......", the master Chen Heipi said is the head of the Chen family, and Chen Heipi is the tenant of the Chen family, so the head of the Chen family is brought out to save face.

But as soon as he said this, the person who had squeezed him before was not happy again, that person's name was Sun Changshun, who was the helper of the Sun family, and immediately shouted: "Fart!" If you want to make a big contribution, it has to belong to our grandson! ……”

Chen Heipi immediately replied without showing weakness: "You are the fucking fart!" Can your Sun family compare with our Chen family? Half of Gutian County belongs to our Chen family! ……”

There were also many tenants and helpers of the Sun family and the Chen family in the crowd, who stood up and scolded one after another, but there was no fight. No one noticed that outside the crowd, Zhang Cheng was wearing a hat to cover half of his face, and was quietly writing and drawing on a piece of paper, which had several grids listed on it, with the words "number of supporters", "number of opponents", "reasons", etc., which was the public opinion questionnaire given to him by Guo Zhiyuan.

Such a scene also happens in other places, of course, for ordinary people, this matter actually has little impact, it just gives them more after-dinner conversation, but through their discussions, this matter will naturally reach the ears of those squires, and this matter also has an effect, that is, let the people of Gutian County know that the county official in the county has changed, and the new county order is called Guo Zhiyuan!

Wang Demin, who has been paying attention to Guo Zhiyuan's every move, naturally knows about it, but he just pouted disapprovingly: "This Guo Zhiyuan is really crazy about money, thinking that he can raise money by making a false name as a Justice of the Peace, I deliberately asked people to go to Jingshan Pavilion today to stare at it for a day, and there is no one who recommends himself, his wishful thinking is doomed to fail!" ……”

Bai Du on the side did not speak with a gloomy face, he naturally could not be as short-sighted as Wang Demin, in fact, as soon as Guo Zhiyuan's announcement came out, he knew that his previous arrangements had failed, Guo Zhiyuan launched the Justice of the Peace election system, those squires could not be unmoved, how many people in the world could not be tempted by the word fame and fortune? Those squires are not short of money, but they lack fame, and they can only be recorded in the "County Chronicles" to leave their names through the ages, which is enough to make those squires tempted, not to mention that they can also enjoy the privilege of not kneeling in court, and have the power to participate in the trial of civil cases, inspect prisons, report injustices, etc., how can those squires not rush to them? !

As for Wang Demin's saying that there is no one in Jingshanting who recommended himself, it is even more ridiculous, how can those squires go to Mao Sui to recommend themselves? Wouldn't it be humiliating if you didn't get selected? They will definitely find Guo Zhiyuan to collude in private, and the next thing is nothing more than bargaining, Guo Zhiyuan will definitely be able to raise silver, it's just a matter of how much.

The most terrifying thing is that even if he knows Guo Zhiyuan's purpose, he doesn't know how to stop it, because this is a dignified and upright scheme! Guo Zhiyuan made conditions that those squire forces could not refuse, and it was impossible for him to stop those squires from supporting Guo Zhiyuan. It seems that he still underestimated this young county magistrate, such a wrist is not necessarily made out even by a veteran of officialdom, but Baidu did not feel frustrated by this, but was a little faintly excited, only such an opponent is challenging, and it is worth his Baidu to deal with seriously!

The squires were indeed tempted, but Guo Zhiyuan took the initiative to visit them before, but they didn't give Guo Zhiyuan any good face, and now they want them to turn around and beg Guo Zhiyuan, which is somewhat inseparable, so most of them are still waiting to see if anyone will respond to Guo Zhiyuan's Justice of the Peace selection system.

Soon the first squire to find Guo Zhiyuan to collude appeared, this person is called Yang Dongcheng, is the owner of the county seat Jade Building and Fuguifang, as soon as you hear these two names, everyone should know what business he does, that's right, he is a prostitute. Courtyards and casinos! These two are very money-making businesses, but these two kinds of businesses belong to the wrong way and cannot be put on the table, so although Yang Dongcheng is rich, his reputation among the squires is not very good, and his status is not high, which is why he is so eager to come to Guo Zhiyuan first.
