As soon as he walked out of the door, Chen Mo, who came over to see the excitement, greeted him, opened the brocade box curiously, and exclaimed: "Boss, you just went in for a while, and he gave you so much gold, what did you tell him?" ”

Liu He glanced at Wei Xiao, signaled him to be silent, and then said to Chen Mo: "I told him to introduce him to a son-in-law, and as soon as he was happy, he gave me all these gold bars." ”

Chen Mo, who only knew that Liu He wanted to help Zhong Lixun, but didn't know the ins and outs of other things, was amazed, "Who is the son-in-law you introduced to him, who can make him happy like this, he must be a person with a lot of background, right?" ”

Liu He said solemnly: "That's not it, as soon as I heard that it was the young master of Wanwumen who came to be his son-in-law, he was so beautiful that snot bubbles came out." ”

Chen Mo cried with a sad face, walked to Tai Meng's side, and said sincerely: "Sister Da Mengzi, I will stay here to be a son-in-law in the future, I am not here, you have to take good care of yourself, and the brothers, by the way, there is also the leader, although he sold me without saying a word, I will not hate him." ”

Liu He hugged Chen Mo, pretended to regret it, and said to Wei Xiao: "Old Wei, return the money and tell him, Chen Mo, I won't sell it!" ”

Seeing Liu He say this, he couldn't stop giving himself a look, Wei Xiao suddenly understood, took the brocade box and ran away, "That's not good, if you accept other people's money, you can't regret it, I think Chen Mo, this kid, stay here in the future!" ”

Chen Mo looked at Liu He with an aggrieved face, and then at Wei Xiao, who had already run away, and turned around in frustration and walked towards the Tao Mansion.

Liu He hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed him, pointing in the direction of Wei Xiao's escape, "Don't chase yet?" ”

Chen Mo suddenly realized, he ran away, and after a while, he disappeared from sight.

Liu He's treacherous plan succeeded, he was in a good mood, and walked forward, Qian Zhuan stepped forward and reminded: "Boss, do you want to follow and take a look, I'm afraid that Chen Mo's kid will have a tendon, in case he ......"

Liu He suddenly broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly strode forward, just as Qian Zhuan said, in case Wei Xiao didn't hand over the brocade box, Chen Mo's bullish temper came up, and the two of them moved again, Wei Xiaoke would be unlucky.

Waiting in front of the county official Master He's house, the two were really scuffling together, Tai Meng and Qian Zhuan were just about to step forward to pull the two apart, when they heard the door of He Mansion squeak open, and several family Ding fish rushed out, lined up in formation, and then walked out of it, looking at the posture, it should be the local county official Master He.

Master He looked at the two people who still refused to stop, frowned, and said to an official-looking person on the side: "It's the two of them?" ”

The official hurriedly stepped forward and nodded, "Yes, it's the two of them, the porter just reported to me, saying that these two people have been entangled outside the mansion for a long time." ”

Master He said impatiently: "Then what nonsense, just blast me away, if they dare to resist, they will arrest me, put him in prison, and lock him up for ten days and half a month, and he will be honest." ”

Liu He saw that the momentum was not right, and hurriedly stepped forward and said loudly: "Master He is angry, these two people are my servants, they heard that I am going to visit Master He today, and they all want to see Master He's demeanor, in order to compete for a place that can follow me into the mansion, this is the reason why they are fighting here, and I hope that Master He will not meet with them." ”

Master He looked Liu He up and down, "You are quite good at what you say, okay, in that case, you can let the two of them come in together." ”

Liu He hurriedly scolded the two of them, especially Chen Mo, who was still unrelenting, and pulled him into the He Mansion together.

Compared with the mansion of the old man Tao just now, this He Mansion is too simple, but even so, it is still much larger than the house of ordinary people, I don't know how many times larger, from the gate to the living room, it has also taken half a pillar of incense.

Entering the living room, Master He sat down in the middle, and did not let his subordinates serve tea, nor even beckoned Liu He to sit down, and said directly: "You came to me today, what is the matter?" ”

Liu He had already been mentally prepared for Master He's arrogance and rudeness, he directly took the brocade box from Wei Xiao's hand and put it in front of Master He.

"This is ......" When Master He saw the brocade box, he guessed the other party's intentions, but because of his identity, it was really inconvenient to open it with his own hands.

Liu He opened the lid of the box, and the gold bars that were originally neatly stacked inside had become scattered due to the competition between Wei Xiao and Chen Mo.

But even if it is messy, the gold bar is still a gold bar, and when Master He saw it, his eyes suddenly lit up.

When Liu He saw Master He's greedy expression, he knew that the information brought back by Tai Meng and Qian Zhuan was not wrong at all, this Master He had just taken office, and the previous term had left a lot of deficits, so that he had almost nothing to make during his tenure.

And his previous official position was a fictitious position that could not be obtained by a copper plate, in order to be able to come to Moling to be the county commander, he almost poured out his family wealth, but he didn't expect to take over a mess in the end.

is such a county lord whose head is full of money, how can he not reveal his true face when he sees these gold bars?

"I came today to ask Master He to help and recommend a filial piety." Liu He said, and gently closed the lid of the brocade box again.

Master He retracted his gaze at this time, but he looked embarrassed, "It's not that I don't want to help you with this, it's just that the imperial court has an order, the county has an order for 200,000 households to raise one person every year, less than 200,000 households to raise one person every two years, less than 100,000 to raise one person every three years, the previous Moling County Order, just elected one person, next time, I'm afraid it will be three years later." ”

Liu He said unhurriedly: "Don't worry, my lord, the imperial court has recently decreed that there are special preferential treatment for other counties regarding the regulations on filial piety and honesty, and if there are 100,000 households, one person can be elected every year, and Moling is in this list." ”

Master He sighed, "But there are no 100,000 households in Moling, even if there is a new order from the imperial court, it will take another two years at the earliest." ”

Liu He pretended to be surprised and said, "Don't you know that the population of Moling has exceeded 100,000 households?" ”

Master He didn't even think about it, so he concluded, "This is impossible, I just read the household registration records when I took office, and the population of Moling is only more than 80,000 households registered." ”

Liu He smiled faintly, "What Master He said, that was half a year ago, just three months ago, the people north of the Yangtze River moved to the south because they were dissatisfied with Cao Cao's decree to move to the north bank of the Yangtze River, and now the population of Moling has already exceeded 100,000 households. If you don't believe me, you can call the official who manages the household registration and ask about it. ”
