Chu Huan clapped his hands and smiled: "Okay, good, righteous annihilation, Cao Xianling really deserves to be a loyal minister of the imperial court." ”

Although Zhao Jingcheng was dying, when Cao County's words were heard, his heart suddenly became angry, and he said hard: "Your Excellency, it's all ...... It was all done by the surname Cao, and when the yamen of the states began to move back, he ...... He began to prepare to increase the tax ......! ”

Chu Huan touched his chin, returned to the chair and sat down, and asked Cao Xianling with a smile: "He is your brother-in-law, he will not wronged you, this governor believes this, and the small household is inherited, without your Cao Xianling's order, he will not dare to do this." Cao County Order, if you want to argue again, it will be an insult to the IQ of this governor! ”

Cao Xian Ling knew that it was useless to quibble anymore, so he knelt down in front of Chu Huan, "Lord Governor, the lower official...... The lower officials made this decision, which is also ...... Also to rebuild the Northwest ......! ”

"Oh?" Chu Huan leaned forward slightly, "In order to rebuild the northwest, come on, Lord Cao, tell me, how to rebuild the northwest?" ”

Cao Xianling's forehead was oozing with sweat, but he still stubbornly said: "Back to adults, this is ...... This northwest was ravaged by the Western Liang people, and many projects were damaged, whether it was bridges and roads, or city fortresses, these ...... These have to be renovated, and the imperial court ...... The imperial court wants to use troops against the southeast, and the northwest is self-reliant, so ...... Therefore, for the revival of all industries in the northwest, a large amount of silver is needed...... The next official is ...... That's when I came up with this ......! ”

Chu Huan looked at Nian Xiucai, who was not far away, and asked, "Are you a Xiucai?" ”

That year, Xiu saw Chu Huan punish Zhao Jingcheng, and he had a good impression of Chu Huan, and arched his hand: "Student Year Xin Lan, I have seen Lord Governor!" ”

"You're welcome." Chu Huan waved his hand and said with a smile: "Nian Xiucai, let's talk about it, this Lord Cao wants to rejuvenate the northwest, so he increases taxes, does this make sense?" ”

"The students have the audacity to say that this is undoubtedly killing chickens and eggs, and there is no reason." Nian Xiucai immediately said: "My lord, the so-called rejuvenation of all industries is to give them time to recuperate. The students did not have much affection for the businessmen, and they had always felt that they were mercenary, but for the businessmen who had stayed in Xiguan, the students did admire them now. ”

"Oh?" Chu Huan said with a smile: "How do you say this? ”

"These merchants are fully capable of entering the customs and starting a new business, and there is no shortage of such examples in the northwest, a large number of gentry and merchants have entered the customs to escape the military disaster." Nian Xiucai said solemnly: "But there are also some businessmen who stay, no matter what they are for, but they still let Xiguan's commerce continue to maintain...... Xiguan is now poor and white, it is not easy to do business in Xiguan, half of the commercial tax is reduced, it is reasonable, can promote the recovery of business, but here in Beiyuan County, not only is the commercial tax not reduced, but also increased the onerous reconstruction tax, these taxes add up, large businesses may be able to bear, small businesses can not even earn profits can bear these taxes, so how can business recover? If you can't make ends meet, you can only close the door, who will do business in Xiguan at that time, and if you leave the merchants, commerce and trade cannot be circulated, and you want to revive Xiguan, it is ...... talk on paper! ”

Chu Huan's eyes showed appreciation, his gaze moved to Cao Xianling's face, his expression became indifferent, and he said coldly: "Your head has grown to your ass?" ”

"My lord, the lower official ......!"

"Cadaver vegetarian meal...... It's a shame that you are still a county parent official, and your knowledge is not as good as that of a showman. Chu Huan said coldly: "Someone came, took off his crown and hat, such a mediocre official, this governor can't tolerate it!" ”

Cao County Ling had already pleaded: "Your Excellency the Governor, the lower official will not dare next time, please forgive the lower official this ......!" ”

"This official has never been a domineering person." Chu Huan said lightly: "Today, the governor will give you a chance, and the people will decide ...... you go and stay!" He raised his head, stood up, glanced at the people around him, and finally said: "Fellow villagers, Chu is the new governor of Xiguan Dao, and he came to Xiguan to take up his post on the order of the saint. The imperial court has made a decree that Xiguan Dao does not have to pay taxes to the imperial court for three years, and the official will definitely pay taxes lightly in Xiguan, and all walks of life will be given time to recuperate. From now on, the commercial tax will be lowered by half compared with before the war, and there will be no tax increase within three years...... As for other taxes, the Governor will issue regulations when he takes office...... Today, the governor asked his father and fellow villagers to make a decision, is this Lord Cao still suitable to be the county magistrate of Beiyuan County? and his departure will be handed over to you. ”

People looked at each other, only felt a little unbelievable, and couldn't imagine that the parents of a county were in their own hands, first there was silence, and after a while, someone in the crowd said loudly: "This kind of faint official, leaving is the scourge of Beiyuan County...... Can't stay! ”

"Yes, I can't stay!"

"Your Excellency Governor, if you send us a good official who loves the people like a son, such a corrupt official stays in Beiyuan County, and the people of Beiyuan County will not have a good life."

Cao Xianling's face was pale, staring at the group of people viciously, Chu Huan glanced at Cao Xianling, and then didn't hesitate, signaled to Qi Hong, Qi Hong waved his hand, and the two guards soldiers immediately stepped forward, and couldn't help but say, grabbed Cao Xianling, took off his crown and hat, and wanted to take off his clothes.

Cao Xian Ling hurriedly shouted: "Lord Chu, you can't treat the lower officials like this, the lower officials...... The lower official was appointed by Governor Zhu, and it was Governor Zhu who ordered the lower official to serve as the commander of Beiyuan County, you ...... You can't just leave the official ......! ”

Chu Huan put his hands behind his back, stared at Cao Xianling's face, and asked, "Which Governor Zhu are you talking about?" ”

"Yes...... It is Zhu Lingyue and Zhu Governor. Cao Xian Ling wanted to break away from the hands of the guards, but where could his strength compare to the guards, and his two arms were framed on the left and the right, "Lord Chu, if you don't believe it, you can ask Governor Zhu, it was Governor Zhu who saw that Xiaguan had the talent to govern one side, so let Xiaguan govern Beiyuan County ......!" ”

"Ben remembered." Chu Huan thought about it deliberately, "Are you talking about Zhu Lingyue Zhu Governor of Tianshan Dao?" ”

"Exactly." Cao Xian Ling stared at Chu Huan's eyes, he had no other way at this time, he could only come up with this best killer weapon, hoping that bringing out Zhu Lingyue could suppress Chu Huan, "Lord Chu, the lower official is indeed personally appointed by Governor Zhu, you ...... You forgive the lower official this time, and the lower official will never dare to do it again next time. ”

He thought in his heart, Zhu Lingyue can now be regarded as a first-class number one person in the northwest, deeply rooted in the northwest, the military power of tens of thousands of troops in the Xiping Western Army is even in the hands of Zhu Lingyue's descendants, although Zhu Lingyue is nominally the governor of Tianshan Dao, but his hands and feet are all over the sky, Xiguan and Beishan have his people, even Xiao Huanzhang of Beishan Dao has to look at Zhu Lingyue's eyes to act, Cao County Ling felt that Chu Huan was a new official to take office, and he had just arrived and had not yet gained a foothold in Xiguan, so he would naturally have great scruples about Zhu Lingyue.

Chu Huan looked at Cao County's order for a long time, and the people in the surrounding area were suddenly silent, and many people were actually thinking about whether Chu Huan was really afraid of Zhu Lingyue.

In fact, some people understand that even if Chu Huan is a new governor, but after all, he is a newcomer, and in terms of strength, he must not be compared with Zhu Lingyue.

Some people are even thinking that Chu Huan was thunderous before, and it seems that he was just putting on a show and deceiving the people's hearts, and now Cao County Ling opened his mouth to mention Zhu Lingyue, the new governor seems to have a weak heart, and he does not dare to pursue it further, for officials, although it is important to earn the hearts of the people by making a appearance, it is more important to keep his future, if the new governor really disposes of Cao County's order, it will be like a slap in the face to Zhu Lingyue, on the ground in the northwest, and Zhu Lingyue will be the enemy, I am afraid it will be very difficult to have a smooth career in the future.

Cao Xian Ling felt that Chu Huan's eyes were getting colder and colder, and an ominous premonition enveloped his body, but he heard that Chu Huan had already asked: "Zhu Lingyue is the governor of Tianshan Dao, where are you Lord Cao?" ”

Cao Xian Ling heard the coldness of Chu Huan's tone, shivered, and said in a trembling voice: "Xiaguan...... Xiaguan is an official of Xiguan Province......! ”

"Oh? It turns out that you remember yourself as an official of Xiguan Province? Chu Huan said lightly: "Who are you recommended and appointed, the governor doesn't care, but you are lawless in the governor's Xiguan Road, and take the lead in violating the laws and regulations of the imperial court, but the governor can't ignore it, come and pick up his official uniform, immediately seal his house, go out of the house, and don't take a copper coin out of the house, Qi Yunwei ......!" ”

"The last general!"

"You take someone to the county government now, and drive him and his family out of the yamen." Chu Huan said in a deep voice: "Everything in the county government is not allowed to bring out a single brick or stone. He looked at Cao Xian Ling coldly, "This official has been extrajudicial to you, you can go to Tianshan Road now and look for Governor Zhu, this governor thinks that Governor Zhu is also a person who understands righteousness, and he will definitely not blame this governor." ”

Qi Hong raised his hand and said coldly: "Lord Cao, please!" ”

Cao County Commander wanted to say something, the guards had already pushed behind unceremoniously, Cao County's face was pale, but just a county order, how could he confront Chu Huan and other feudal officials, helplessly, under the push of several guards, he went to the county office, and Zhao Jingcheng was also lifted up by several officials, and retreated in a panic, whether to go back to the county government or to find a doctor, it is unknown.

Waiting for Cao Xian Ling to go away, there was a burst of cheers in all directions, and the shopkeeper of the oil shop Lin, who was beaten by the yacha, was already supported by the shop guys, and arrived in front of Chu Huan, knelt down, and cried silently: "The villain thanks the adult for saving his life, the kindness of the adult, the villain will never forget in this life, and he will erect a card for the adult when he turns back, and bows every day!" ”

Chu Huan hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Don't don't, the person is not dead, but don't come here, this official can't stand it." ”

The shopkeeper of Nalin hurriedly said: "Adult, villain...... The villain doesn't mean that......! ”

Chu Huan laughed, and asked people to help the shopkeeper Lin up, and then said: "Do business with your heart, do things with your conscience, be undeceitful, and abide by business ethics, this is what you should do, maintain the safety of one party, let the people live and work in peace and contentment, and let all industries prosper, this is what this official has to do, you and I can do our own things." ”

Everyone saw that although Chu Huan was ruthless to corrupt officials and tyrants such as Cao Xianling, he was kind to the common people, and they all immediately had a good impression, and some people even clapped their hands and shouted: "Your Excellency the Governor said it well." ”

Chu Huan laughed again, looked at Nian Xiucai, and asked: "Nian Xinlan, if the official doesn't come out today, the county government's official will naturally not let you go, you are a weak scholar, and if the wooden cane is knocked down, I'm afraid you won't be able to take a few hits...... When you come out to speak for Shopkeeper Lin, are you really not afraid of throwing your life here? ”

"Students don't just speak for Shopkeeper Lin." Nian Xiucai tilted his head slightly, "The students just stood up and said what they should say, if the corrupt officials and tyrants acted wantonly, and everyone dared not speak, then how can there be justice in this world?" Student...... Although the students are powerless, they ...... But they are not afraid of their wooden staff, at most they will die! ”

As soon as he said this, the people around him were suddenly a little ashamed, when the shopkeeper Lin was scolded by the cane, there were nearly 100 people in the surroundings, but no one dared to step forward to say a word, only this weak scholar stepped forward and spoke up.

Chu Huan bowed slightly, and said, "This governor has heard of the style of a scholar, and today I have truly seen what the style of a scholar is...... Nian Xinlan, you are good, since you dare to stand up and speak with a fair conscience, then this governor now lets you stand up and do one thing again, do you have the courage? ”
