Chapter 132: Summer Worms Can't Speak Ice

Wang Guoran is a warm-hearted!

"This matter has a bearing on the stability of the western part of the strait. Since Ma Lao has come in person, I should do my best to say something for the princess...... It's just that what the princes did before was indeed a bit excessive. If Deng County ordered a banquet invitation, it is understandable that you would not dare to go because of Chen Sheng's silver might. But why did Chen Sheng die, but you didn't take action for a long time? If I were Deng Haixi, I would be very angry. ”

"I'm confused, confused!"

Jia people looked embarrassed, and they made a fuss again and again.

Fortunately, Wang Cheng did not continue to talk about this matter, and after sending Jia Ren away, he prepared a car to go to the county office.

Unexpectedly, Deng Ji was not in Haixi County.

It turned out that after Chen Qi dismissed Chen Sheng's status as a disciple of the Chen family, he also invited Deng Ji to go to Guangling for a while. As Deng Ji's Shangguan, and the premier family in Guangling County, the Chen family can be said to have given Deng Ji enough face. And Deng Ji, as Chen Deng's subordinate, should have visited Chen Deng before taking office according to etiquette...... Therefore, since the Chen family has spoken, the trip to Guangling is urgent.

"Hu Ban, is Mr. Puyang here?"

"Back to Mr. Wang's words, Mr. Puyang and my master went to Guangling together."

Wang Cheng asked: "Mr. Puyang also went, so who is staying in the county government now?" ”

"Oh, it's my son-in-law!"

"Cao Gongzi?"

"Exactly...... Gongzi was supposed to go to visit Mrs. Chen, but because he was not feeling well, he stayed in Haixi County. ”

"That's it!"

Wang Cheng nodded thoughtfully.

"Mr. Wang, do you want to see my son-in-law?"

"Oh, since Childe is sick, then I won't bother! By the way, Deng County's order can be mentioned, when are you going to recruit soldiers and horses to encircle and suppress pirates? ”

"Well...... this" Hu Ban shook his head, "The master doesn't seem to have mentioned this matter!" After eradicating Chen Sheng, the master only ordered someone to recall a hundred patrols and put them in charge of Feng Chao and Pan Zhang. Other...... Oh, I remember, the host also said that the management of the bazaar must be strengthened, and that a ...... is going to be introduced It's a mouthy name, and I can't remember it...... Oh, the Public Security Regulations. ”

"Huh?"

Wang Cheng looked stunned.

"What's that?"

"The full name is called the Public Security Management Regulations of the Beiji Business District of Haixi County, and what the specific content is, it is not something that the villain can inquire about."

"Public security management of the North Market Business District of Haixi County...... Ordinance? ”

This long name is indeed a bit awkward.

Wang Cheng scratched his head, secretly stuffed Hu Ban with money, and then said goodbye and left.

What are the regulations in this Rausch business district, and what exactly are they?

Wang Cheng left in a daze, Hu Ban looked at his back, weighed the copper coin in his hand, and laughed softly.

"Hu Ban, what are you laughing at?"

"Oh, someone came to inquire just now, and I answered according to Childe's instructions, and I got the usual reward."

"Damn, the son's hand is really clever."

"That's ...... This afternoon, I got almost two dollars. But speaking of which, Wang Cheng is still generous, and he is consistent as soon as he makes a move. ”

After a few words of laughter with Mending, Hu Ban walked into the county office.

He bypassed the yatang, crossed the passage, entered an archway, and came to the cross-courtyard where Cao Peng lived.

It's quiet across the courtyard, with a study, two rows of side rooms, and a small garden. Hu Ban walked to the door of the study, knocked on the door, and pulled the door open.

"Childe, Wang Cheng is here!"

"What is he doing here?"

Cao Peng was sitting in a pile of cases, rummaging through them.

Hu Ban came in, he didn't raise his head, and asked directly.

"He's here to see his master...... But when the master was not there, he did not say anything more about asking to see him. ”

"Did he say anything else?"

"Oh, he just asked when the master would put down the pirates."

Cao Peng's body trembled and raised his head from the case.

"He's a teacher, why is he so enthusiastic about fighting pirates?

I remember that after he visited my brother-in-law for the first time, he panicked and publicized it to the outside world, almost putting my brother-in-law in an embarrassing situation. ”

"This ...... The villain is not so clear. ”

With a hint of tiredness on his face, Cao Peng straightened up and gently rubbed his temples.

In the past two days, he has indeed been exhausted!

In order to find out about Fishkiss Coppertown, he almost rummaged through the cases in the stall. I have to say that the archives recorded by the ancients are often a few words, which explain a lot of problems. Cao Peng was also reborn for almost a year, and he has some understanding of rhetoric and sentence formation in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. But when he took out these cases and checked them, it was really too hard.

In a word, it often takes repeated scrutiny to figure out some meanings.

Cao Peng is holding a bamboo slip similar to the local chronicles of Haixi, most of which are recorded in some strange things...... Like, local legends?

Well, it seems to be the type of Zhiwei body in "Sou Shen Ji".

Putting down the bamboo slips, Cao Peng got up from the case and grabbed two jade balls the size of a baby's fist.

This pair of jade balls was copied from Chen Sheng's house, and it is said that Chen Sheng's favorite thing. Cao Peng felt that this thing looked like a fitness ball in later generations, so he kept it. Two white jade balls rolled in his hand, making a crisp sound from time to time.

"This Mr. Wang is a little too enthusiastic about fighting pirates."

He walked out of his study, looked up, and glanced at the gloomy sky. Haixi in winter is like this, wet and damp, which makes Cao Peng feel somewhat uncomfortable. He walked slowly on the porch, and Hu Ban followed behind him, following ...... unhurriedly, "Hu Ban, how is Chen Sheng's family property inventory?" ”

"Brother Xiahou is still counting. When he left in the morning, he also said that Chen Sheng's family property was too large and it was difficult to count it for a while. ”

"Well, it's indeed a little difficult for Xia Hou to do this kind of thing."

Chen Sheng's business before his death covered industries such as gold market, grain and rice, wood work, and cloth farming.

In addition, there are various businesses such as pawnbroking and granges, which are very varied and complicated. In addition, it is necessary to count the population and make a register, which is a very hard work. There are about 30,000 people registered in Haixi. But that's the population two years ago. How many people are there in Haixi today? No one can tell. Local tyrants, many of whom have slaves in their families. These slaves belonged to the private property of the local tyrants and were not shown on the household register. Chen Sheng occupies a large area of fertile land in Haixi, so how many slaves are there under his name? Careful inventory and inventory are also required...... Xia Houlan can fight, do this kind of thing, but don't get started.

That's right, Chen Sheng is dead!

Deng Ji also seems to have gained a foothold in Haixi.

But in fact, Deng Ji has not established a complete set of members so far.

Generally speaking, in addition to the county order, a county seat also needs to set up a county official to manage documents and prisons; One or two county lieutenants manage law and order. Below the county magistrate and county lieutenant, there are also positions such as the chief bookkeeper, gongcao, peng, and history. In addition, there must also be the three elders, the chief and other officials at the most basic level. The prefectural magistrate or prefectural magistrate is appointed by the imperial court. But the state and county can also intervene in the county's personnel.

However, Haixi's situation was special, and Chen Deng did not intervene in it.

Now that Deng Ji has opened up the situation, the establishment of a set of staff teams is imminent.

The position of the county has been assumed by Puyang Min; County lieutenants, Zhou Cang and Xiahoulan can all be appointed. Cao Peng's current position is a soldier Cao of Haixi County. But in fact, he only had more than 100 soldiers and horses in his hands. Feng Chao was appointed as a soldier Cao Shi, and Pan Zhang was a soldier Cao Peng, and he was already the armed force of the entire Haixi County. The rest, such as Hucao, Facao, Cangcao, Gongcao, and other positions, are still vacant.

If you want to govern Haixi County well, it is not realistic to rely on Deng Ji alone.

Pu Yang Min's knowledge is very outstanding, and he can deal with these trivial matters, but there are some shortcomings.

Therefore, it is imperative that Deng Ji need to set up a master book, as well as various ministries, and then he can be regarded as establishing a complete team.

But it's really hard to build a team.

Those who have no talent will use it in vain; A talented person, who would be willing to succumb to Deng Ji, an ordinary county commander?

Cao Peng patted his forehead: I have to find some helpers for my brother-in-law!

He suddenly stopped, turned his head and asked, "Hu Ban, have you ever released the news that I asked you to release it?" ”

"Childe, it's all out...... However, they all asked me, what is it, what is it? ”

Cao Peng smiled slightly, "When it's time to tell you, I'll naturally tell you!" ”

"Whoa!"

"Alright, you go down first."

Hu Ban bowed and retreated.

Cao Peng walked slowly on the corridor, and the jade ball in his hand turned faster and faster.

Fish Kiss Copper Town!

Mysterious murderer...... And the legendary treasure.

These days, he has been thinking about it, and a vein has gradually formed in his mind.

According to the Hercynian Local Chronicles...... Oh, it's the bamboo slip with a strange body that records: Li Guangli did bury a lot of wealth before surrendering to the Huns. However, from Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to the present, no one has found the location of this wealth for hundreds of years, and even the so-called labyrinth has gradually become a myth and legend. Today, this legend is not well known.

Li Guangli's Treasure - Fish Kiss Copper Town - The Mysterious Death of Haixi County in Recent Years - Mai Cheng's Residence in the County Government...... Everything seems to be faintly pointing the finger at the Mai family.

And this Mai family is a local wealthy family in Haixi, which not only has a long history, but also has a high reputation.

Chen Sheng doesn't look domineering on the surface, but if he compares with the Mai family, he is a scum! The Mai family is the real Haixi Yiba!

Cao Peng can deal with Chen Sheng mercilessly, but it doesn't mean that he can deal with the Mai family.

In his previous life, he relied on his enthusiasm and was not afraid of the powerful, but in the end he ended up ruining his family; In this life, he repeatedly warned himself not to be a hero! So when faced with the same problem, Cao Peng decided to hold back for the time being, and was not in a hurry to solve the mystery.

After all, Deng Ji has not yet taken root in Haixi County...... There is another thing, Wang Cheng seems to be very active in the past two days.

Perhaps it was the instinct of the criminal police that made Cao Peng wary of Wang Cheng from the beginning.

According to the information he received, Wang Cheng was indeed a good person. He was bold, he was generous, he didn't ask for luxury, he lived an almost ascetic life. Such a person, really perfect. But it is precisely this perfection that makes people feel that Wang Cheng is unreal.

It seems to be a deliberate perfection!

If so, why did he make this illusion?

Under the great good, there will be great evil. This is Cao Peng's feeling...... Wang Cheng's enthusiasm for suppressing pirates made Cao Peng even more suspicious.

Call...... It's a complicated thing!

Cao Peng took a deep breath and stood down on the corridor.

The winter rain was pouring down, but Cao Peng unexpectedly found that in a corner of the courtyard wall, a plum blossom was quietly blooming!
