Chapter 14: Striving for Perfection

The next day, when Laifeng and the others returned to the county office, they told the county official about these two things.

The county magistrate listened to Laifeng and others' words, and said: "Come boy, this is where you need to learn, otherwise you will easily suffer a loss when you walk the rivers and lakes." First of all, let's talk about Liu San, you know, the thugs like them are basically knives in other people's hands, and generally speaking, there is nothing wrong with knives, just like yesterday. They are only fighting with you, and this kind of thing is at most detained for one day, and then released the next day. Besides, since it is a knife from the master's family, the master's family will definitely protect it, even if he doesn't say anything, he only needs to hand over a few taels of atonement money and release it. And you don't want to think about it, since they dare to ask for it blatantly, it means that they have already made a written note. As Liu San said, the matter that made the written evidence was sued by the officials, and they were also the ones who took the reason. ”

Lai Feng asked: "Then doesn't the yamen care about this usury thing?" ”

The county magistrate took a sip of tea, shook his head and didn't speak, and the master took over at this time and said, "Come on, boy, since you said this, I'll make it clear to you." First of all, usury is a bad thing; Secondly, the usury thing...... Forget that some of these things are not as simple as you think, or wait for you to experience it on the rivers and lakes before you can experience it yourself. But most people still don't touch this thing, and you're the only one who comes across it. We can only cooperate with the county officials and lords to do their best to govern this small county town and put an end to the occurrence of loan sharks for various reasons. ”

was said by the county official and the master, and Laifeng didn't know what to say. Then he said the second thing, the matter of Lu Yuan's reward to the marquis.

The county magistrate still didn't speak, and asked the master to answer the doubts of Laifeng and the others.

I only heard the master say: "Come on boy, think about it." Lu Yuan and Lu Hou Ye are our heroes in Hengyang, if there is really anything to discuss the explanation, will the official and the state lord be indifferent? Not to mention that this Marquis Lu was posthumously sealed, even if he died in battle after the seal, he had no relatives, no reason and no concern, who can these rewards be given to? We also know the Chen Ajiao you mentioned, but even if the two are childhood sweethearts, they are not married. And it's deeper than you think, and we're still touching on too low a level, and there's no weight in talking. ”

It is already very rare for the county official and the master to explain to themselves so patiently, and he is embarrassed to ask again, but for Chen Ajiao's treatment, he always feels panicked in his heart from the perspective of a modern person, and then said: "Thank you to the county official and the master for guiding the kid to solve his doubts, but the kid is offended, and some words always feel blocked in his chest and not vomit unpleasantly, I hope the county official and the master will forgive me!" ”

Saying that, he saluted the two and then said: "Although the kid doesn't know about the affairs of this officialdom, what the kid doesn't understand is why there is such a thing but it can't be resolved." Lu Houye is very affectionate to Chen Ajiao, there is something that should naturally be left to Chen Ajiao, even if it should not be given to Chen Ajiao, at least it should be explained to Chen Ajiao. And now it's like this, a good woman actually wants to sell her lover to pay off her debts by selling her lover in exchange for her life, which the kid can't accept. ”

The county magistrate put down the teacup, looked at Laifeng and the others and said, "Boy, you have to accept this if you can't accept it." In the face of absolute power, you are weak and not even an ant, so what can you do but swallow your anger at this time? If you want to change this situation, you kid have to work hard to improve your position, but when you sit in a high position, you will find that in fact, there is not much you can change, and the surging trend can be reversed by the power of one person. You have to be able to take advantage of the situation or make a gesture, so that everyone wants to change the idea of changing the status quo is accepted and agreed upon, and everyone can get benefits, so that you can do a good job. ”

After speaking, he walked over and patted the shoulder of the wind and waited, and said with a smile: "Young people have flesh, this is good, who doesn't have a young and frivolous time." If you have a question, ask it, say if you have injustices, the mistakes you made when you were young are your precious wealth in life in the future, besides, who knows if the mistakes you made today will continue to be wrong tomorrow, hahaha! ”

The master also spoke at this time: "Come on boy, don't think about it so much, just let Chen Ajiao send the silver over this matter, after all, she doesn't care, there is no way." You and I are soft-spoken about Lord Lu's affairs, don't think so much, let's do things well. ”

Hearing that the county magistrate and the master had already made up their minds about this matter, Lai Feng and the others knew that there would be no second choice besides repaying the money, so he said: "Since the county magistrate and the master have said so, the kid will no longer think about it. It's just that the kid has an idea that he wants to say to the county magistrate and the master, and let the two staff officers see if this idea is feasible, I don't know if it's possible? ”

The county magistrate and the master looked at each other and smiled, and said, "Say it and listen to it!" ”

Laifeng and others said: "That's the case, since the family first called someone to come to Chen Ajiao embroidery, then in fact, the agreement reached between Chen Ajiao and the other party at the beginning was an agreement between embroidery and silver money. ”

The master said: "Come on, boy, you take it for granted, when the embroidery cannot be delivered on time, the first agreement will be automatically invalidated, and the second agreement will be postponed, which is why Liu San is not afraid of you suing the official, where you can think of the other party basically blocked your back road." It doesn't work. ”

Hearing what the master said, Lai Feng and the others immediately felt very disappointed, and said unwillingly: "Is it all the way it can be, there is no room for return?" ”

The master looked at Laifeng and waited like this, and couldn't bear to be hit too hard, and said with a smile: "Maybe there is room to move, so let's ask the county magistrate to go and see this Chen family in the afternoon, and by the way, I will meet Liu San's master for a while." If you think about it, it should be able to work in the face of the county magistrate. I wonder what the county magistrate thinks? ”

The county magistrate said with a smile: "Why not, this official hasn't been to the surrounding countryside for a long time." This Hengyang City has recently added a lot of residents, some things have made me busy and dizzy, it is rare that things are handled smoothly, and I will visit for half a day in the afternoon. ”

Speaking of this, the county magistrate looked at Laifeng and the others and said, "Come boy, but it's only this time." If it weren't for the fact that you have really contributed a lot to your work, it would not be easy to hire an old man. ”

What else can I say to the wind, thank you again and again.
