As Xu Yang expected, the post governor only went to the post station to rest after meeting the county magistrate in the county government hall. And just by looking at that, you can know that this fat man is definitely not a good person, and before leaving, he deliberately squeezed his eyebrows and winked at the county magistrate twice, revealing a "you know" meaning in his eyes.

As for the post governor, he naturally went to eat, drink and have fun everywhere with his achievements in supervising the county. Of course, these are all later words, and in Xu Yang's eyes, he naturally understands that this postmaster is afraid that he is not a good person, and it will be very interesting for these two people to fight.

Patiently waited near the county government for three days, with Xu Yang's current strength, the county government in Zhongmu County can be said to come and go freely. It is impossible for those ordinary county guards to find Xu Yang, who is at the peak strength of the emperor level, these county guards are at best the strength of the sixth order, and if they want to find Xu Yang, they can find out N streets.

In the three days that the postmaster came, he was playing in Zhongmu County almost every day, but there may be nothing in such a small county town that can please this adult, and after playing for three days, the postmaster obviously felt tired, so he came to the county government to "harass" the county magistrate.

"I said Zhongmu County, your ability to govern the county is really average, and there is nothing interesting in this Zhongmu County, this post governor wants to go around to experience the customs, but there is no suitable place, your county order is really ......" The fat post governor said with a bad face, and his tone was full of complaints about Zhongmu County.

Regarding this situation, the county magistrate also frowned, he naturally knew that this postmaster was a drunkard and did not mean to drink. In the past three days since the postmaster came, he has been hinting at himself for a benefit, but he is as clear as water and as a mirror, and it is really not easy to take out the offering. What's more, in all fairness, the county commander felt that he had already condescended here, and now he wanted to be angry with these villains, and he refused.

"Lord Postmaster, Xiaguan, this Zhongmu County is a barren land, and there are not many ......harvests in a year," he said, the county commander took out a small package and handed it to the fat postmaster and continued, "This is a little meaning of Zhongmu County, please laugh at it!" ”

The fat postmaster didn't even look at the package with his eyes, but only weighed it with his hand slightly, and then said with a sinking face: "Zhongmu County, what do you mean by this?" Don't you want to bribe the official? ”

Hiss!

The county magistrate panicked at the time, there is a way that the county official is not as good as the current management, and his own county order is under the control of this post governor, as long as the post governor says something unfavorable to himself after he goes back, then his career will be ruined. Since childhood, he has read poetry and books, hoping to be able to take the examination for an official and a half position to be loyal to the imperial court, although he is now only a Zhongmu county commander, but he has always believed that he just needs a chance. It's good now, I have managed this place in good order, but I am ushering in a corrupt postmaster, how can I make myself good!

Respectfully saluted the postmaster, and the county magistrate asked with an embarrassed face: "My lord, Zhongmu County is barren, but here is all that the lower officials can take...... If you have any other teachings, you can tell the lower officials, and the lower officials will do their best to ......."

Hearing the last sentence of the county order, the fat postmaster's face softened a lot, sat down and took a sip of tea, and said slowly: "I fancy that Mu County is also an honest person, so this postmaster will say it directly!" This official recently wanted to buy an official residence, the location is on Luoyang East Street, but the price is ......"

The county magistrate's face quickly darkened when he heard that, which was also too scary. The house on Luoyang East Street is notoriously expensive, and what kind of people are there on East Street, all of them live in high-ranking officials and nobles, so the house does not have a few tens of millions of taels that can't be lowered, and it is no wonder that the one hundred taels taken out by the county order are not looked at.

But what can I do? He is a small county magistrate in Zhongmu County, and his annual salary is only a few dozen taels, and the one hundred taels in his hand is his wife's book, but he didn't expect that this money could not enter the eyes of the postmaster at all, and how could he not know that his county magistrate was about to come to an end. Now he only hoped that the Postmaster had little appetite, so that he could barely find a way to "send away" the Postmaster.

"Three thousand taels!" The Postmaster said indifferently, as if this number was just a drop in the bucket for him. Glancing at the stunned county magistrate, the postmaster continued: "What? Could it be that Zhongmu County thinks that three thousand taels is a lot? You know, the annual tax revenue of Zhongmu County is more than this amount, Zhongmu County, is this the way of the official, and all kinds of mysteries still have to be taught by the official? ”

Is it the way of an official? Regarding the "Dao" in the mouth of the post governor, Zhongmu County naturally knows what it means. But for this kind of three-year Qing Governor's Mansion, he will not do the thing of 100,000 snowflakes of silver, and he will never do it, this is his bottom line, and he will never touch the bottom line.

"My lord, can these three thousand taels be alleviated?" The county magistrate said with an embarrassed face, "The family in this county is poor, and Zhongmu County is a barren land, how can the officials afford it between three thousand and two times?" ”

Regarding Zhongmu County's helpless expression, the fat postmaster didn't care at all.

got up and walked out of the mansion slowly, leaving only one sentence: "That's your business, the official gives you three days, and after three days, the official waits for your answer, I hope you won't say the same thing again." ”

Looking at the departing postmaster, the county magistrate felt quite uncomfortable. He thinks he is talented, and he is completely free from managing this small Zhongmu County, and even he is lazy and lazy in dealing with his usual government affairs, even if he copes with it like this

It's easy. But now facing the postmaster, facing the dark side of the officialdom, he feels that this is contrary to his original intention, this is not the career he pursues at all, is this kind of officialdom the officialdom he deserves?

With such a question, the county magistrate returned to his house and wanted to think quietly about what he was striving for! But just after the county order closed the door, the county order sat down and rubbed his head.

Poof!

A figure fell from the roof, bent his knees to remove the force of the fall, looked at the county magistrate and asked, "Is Zhongmu County worried about something?" Is there anything I can do for you? ”

"Who are you? Why did you break into the private house of the prefectural order? Looking at Xu Yang who suddenly appeared, Zhongmu County had no fear, but asked with some puzzlement. The other party can enter quietly from the roof, so it can be said that it is easy to kill yourself. However, the county magistrate can feel that the person in front of him has no ill will towards him, and may simply want to help him.

Xu Yang smiled slightly, and did not say his identity, but directly took out three thousand taels of silver and put it on the table and said slowly: "I don't know if these silver taels can help adults tide over the difficulties in front of them?" ”

Suddenly there was a white flower of silver, these silver can be said to be the first time this small county magistrate has seen it, and even he thought that he could be in a high position, but he never thought about when he would be able to have so many silver taels. He may not be a greedy man, but seeing so much silver placed in front of him, his body is still a little uncontrollable.

"You...... What does this mean? Forcibly suppressed his inexplicable impulse, the county commander shouted coldly: "Are you trying to bribe the official?" The official will not accept your bribe for no reason, and even if the official is dismissed, the official will never give in......"

All right! Seeing this county magistrate rejecting himself so righteously, Xu Yang also had a headache. He really wanted to help this county magistrate tide over the difficulties, and he could be regarded as laying a good foundation with this historical celebrity. As for how to dig up this person later, Xu Yang also has a rough plan, and the most important thing now is to give the silver two to the county magistrate for emergency use.

There is a saying that "the mouth of eating people is short, and the hands are short", when the time comes, the county commander receives his favor, isn't it easy to capture? But the biggest problem now is how to get this upright county magistrate to accept his "help"!

"This, ah......" Looking at the three thousand taels of silver on the table, Xu Yang touched his head and explained with a smile: "This is the right to be regarded as me solving this trouble for the county order!" After all, I admire the prefectural magistrate's personality very much, and I really want to help the prefectural magistrate with his troubles, and I ask the prefectural magistrate not to refuse......"

Xu Yang felt that it was really unconvincing for him to explain this matter in front of a historical celebrity, you must know that the intelligence of a historical celebrity is absolutely overwhelming, and he has a strong ability to see through the strategy. If it weren't for the fact that he hadn't encountered any battles against historical celebrities for so long, it was estimated that he would have to give money to the number of people after being calculated, and there was no way to do it, because the IQ of historical celebrities was too strong.

The county magistrate looked at Xu Yang with a melancholy face, and a gleam flashed in his eyes. When the essence flashed, Xu Yang had a feeling that he had been seen through, you must know that he tried his best to hide his identity this time. What's the deal with that glimmer of light? Have you been recognized by the other party like this?

Sure enough, the county commander didn't say a word, and directly knelt on the ground and bowed respectfully: "It turned out that the champion Lord Hou was on top, and Zhongmu County ordered Chen Gong to meet the champion Lord Hou!" ”

Hiss!

At this moment, Xu Yang's heart was embarrassed and happy. The embarrassing thing is that his identity was seen through all of a sudden, and when he wanted to bribe others, how embarrassing was this; The joy is that the Zhongmu County Commander in front of him is actually the historical Chen Gong!

"Chen County Order doesn't have to be like this, get up!" Now that he was seen through, Xu Yang simply stopped pretending, but said, "You already know about your troubles here, although Ben Hou has the right to open a government and set up accounts, but this Zhongmu County is not under the jurisdiction of this Hou. Therefore, if you want to help Chen County, you can only make this decision. It's just that I didn't expect to be seen by Chen County's order this time...... Ha ha...... A little embarrassed......"

When Chen Gong saw through Xu Yang's identity, he already realized that his opportunity had come. Not to mention the rest, this champion Hou has great military exploits, and he has just been canonized recently, and he is also an upstart in the DPRK, and he has the right to open the government and set up accounts alone, even if he doesn't do it, it's worth it!

It's just that Chen Gong has to be polite about this futile matter, after all, people directly sent him three thousand taels, if he accepted it for so long, wouldn't it seem that he was very incompetent?

"Thank you Champion Hou for your kindness, but these three thousand taels can't be accepted directly......," Chen Gong thought for a while and said slowly, "We can use these three thousand taels to do a game!" ”

"Do the last one?" Listening to Chen Gong's words, Xu Yang knew that this was the strategist's plan, and said with great interest, "I would like to hear the clever plan of Chen County!" ”

……

Three days later, the fat postmaster came to the county government of Zhongmu County again. This time, Chen Gong retired the left and right officials very interestingly, and only he and the fat postmaster were left in the entire county government hall.

"What does Zhongmu County mean?" Look

Chen Gong, who retired from the left and right officials, asked the fat postmaster puzzled.

Chen Gong said with a happy face: "My lord, the officials have been exhausted in the past three days, and it is inevitable that they will live up to the trust of the adults......

After hearing that sentence, the fat postmaster's fat face hurriedly squeezed out a fleshy smile, and the whole person smiled like a peony flower and said: "Zhongmu County seems to be well versed in this way of being an official!" Let's take this official to see how your performance in Zhongmu County is, right? ”

The fat postmaster bit the word "political achievements" very hard, and the various meanings were naturally understood by the two of them.

Chen Gong also showed a knowing smile and shouted to the back hall: "Come on, carry it up!" ”

This voice was raised, and I saw two people walking out of the back hall carrying a heavy box slowly. As a long-term postmaster, the postmaster, who often deals with these yellow and white things, has already guessed the contents of the box just from the movements and frequency of these two people carrying the box. You must know that he also deliberately said the figure of three thousand taels before to make things difficult for this Zhongmu County, in fact, as long as he can extort one thousand eight hundred taels, it is already very good.

Looking at the current posture, he really didn't expect that this honest Zhongmu County really had the ability to get three thousand taels in three days. But these are not important, the important thing is that the contents of the box in front of me must be their own, and I didn't expect to eat meat all of a sudden when the lion opened his mouth this time.

Squeak!

After the box was opened, there were silver taels of white flowers, and a silver ingot was neatly placed in the box. Although I don't know how many layers are placed in it, I was dumbfounded with the knowledge of the fat postmaster!

Instead, Chen Gong opened his mouth at the right time and said, "My lord, this is a little bit of the lower official's heart. That day, I heard that the adults wanted to buy a mansion on Luoyang East Street, and the five thousand taels were a little expression! ”

Five thousand taels? It's two thousand taels more than what I wanted, which is simply a happy buy one get one free...... No, it should be a giveaway.

The fat palm touched the box gently, as if stroking something beloved, and the fat postmaster said after a long time: "Zhongmu County has a heart, and there is such a talent governance as Zhongmu County, which can be described as a political and harmonious person, and after going back, the official will report truthfully to the above, and ensure that Zhongmu County will be promoted immediately." When the time comes, Zhongmu County should not forget the old love between you and me! ”

This fat postmaster is really tempted, this Zhongmu County is a good hand in governing the county, but I didn't expect that this "way of being an official" will not lose to others. This reminded the fat postmaster of a sentence - "If this scholar initiates ruthlessness, he will be ruthless to everyone", and it seems that he also has to have a good relationship with this Zhongmu County.

At this time, Chen Gong suddenly took out a piece of paper, which was densely packed with many things, and after presenting it to the fat postmaster, he said: "My lord, there is a way for people to leave their names...... Look at you, are you writing a note of detention......"

The fat postmaster's face immediately became extremely ugly, who TM accepted a bribe and had to sign! And if he signed it, wouldn't he leave evidence of accepting bribes? Okay, is this the idea that you hit in Mu County?

"What does Zhongmu County mean?" The sudden appearance of a contract made the fat postmaster a little angry, but when he saw the five thousand taels again, his face eased a lot. Maybe this Zhongmu County didn't give a gift, he was afraid that he wouldn't admit it?

Sure enough, Chen Gong was not a historical celebrity, as if he had seen through the fat postmaster's thoughts, he opened his mouth and explained: "My lord, this is the first time that Xia Guan has honored you, and Xia Guan is also responsible for this kind of thing." The lower officials made records and did not forget the kindness with the adults...... Adults don't need to worry too much, if this kind of thing is reported to you and me, neither of you can escape, how can the lower officials find themselves boring......"

Maybe Chen Gong activated some kind of skill, and the fat postmaster just thought about it and agreed! He pressed his handprint on the contract with his chubby fingers, and it looked so clear.

"Huh? Didn't Zhongmu County press a handprint itself? Looking at the signature document he had pressed, the fat postmaster asked suspiciously.

At this time, an unfamiliar voice interrupted: "He doesn't have to press it, after all, you are the only one who has to clean up!" ”

Turning his head to look, he saw that an ordinary official who had helped carry the box had taken off his official uniform and looked at him with a smile, and it was this person who had just spoken.

"Who are you? Dare to be presumptuous in front of this official? Although the fat postmaster has a bad feeling, there are not many people in the court today who dare to call themselves "Ben Hou", and all of them are existences that they can't provoke. But the person in front of him is so young, I am afraid that this Zhongmu County is more likely to be bluffing.

Xu Yang ignored the fat postmaster's frightened look, just looked at Chen Gong and asked, "Chen County Order, is this enough?" ”

In response to Xu Yang, Chen Gong nodded with a smile.

For some reason, seeing the calm and calm appearance of the two, the fat postmaster didn't know why the fear in his heart was constantly amplifying.

Under the influence of fear, the fat postmaster hurriedly shouted; "Presumptuous! Do you know that pretending to be an official of the imperial court is a serious crime, and pretending to be a marquis of the imperial court is a great crime to punish the nine clans! Now hand over the dirty silver and beg for mercy from the official, who may consider dealing with you lightly......"
