Zhang Tie woke up on October 12 and only stayed in Youzhou City for less than two days, and on October 14, he took Huaiyuantang's airship and prepared to return to Jinguang City.

During the two days in Youzhou City, as the newly appointed court lieutenant of Youzhou, in line with the idea of being a monk for a day and hitting the clock for a day, he also had to go to the court lieutenant in Youzhou to learn more about his responsibilities and subordinate institutions.

The official position of Tingwei was a bit difficult to understand at first for those who came to Taixia from other subcontinents, but as long as you know what these two words mean among the Chinese, it is easy to know what this official position is for.

The so-called court captain, according to the literal meaning of the Chinese, knows what it does, that is, the person who guards the fairness, with the explanation of the Xibo people in the Weiyi subcontinent, this court lieutenant can also be translated into a very fashionable meaning - the messenger of justice. A country calls the name of one of the most solemn and solemn officials the messenger of justice, and this country, which has precipitation in its bones, is actually hopelessly romantic genes -- this is Zhang Tie's understanding.

The highest Tingwei institution in Taixia is the Tingwei Mansion, the Tingwei Temple at the state level, the Tingwei Ya at the county level, the Tingwei Office at the city level, the Tingwei Supervisor at the county level, and the townships below the county level do not have Tingwei institutions. As Youzhou Tingwei, Zhang Tie is in charge of Youzhou Tingwei Temple.

The subordinate institutions of Tingwei Temple are mainly divided into three, one is the Zhaojiao Temple, which manages the entire prison system in Youzhou, and the other is the Dali Temple. Dali Temple is in charge of the trial and litigation of the entire Youzhou, and the third is the Criminal Kou Temple. The Torture Temple is in charge of the arrest of thieves and deters treachery. To maintain local law and order, because of these three functions, the Tingwei organ is in the Taixia people, and it has the title of the Yamen of the Three Divisions, and the chief officers of the Tingwei at all levels have been called the commanders of the three divisions.

The court lieutenant of Youzhou is the post of Taixia from the five grades, with a rank of 1,000 stones, and a silver seal and blue ribbon.

The location of Youzhou Tingwei Temple is on a street two kilometers west of Baihutai, and its scale is smaller than Baihutai. However, it covers an area of more than 300 acres, solemn sù mu, everywhere shows the majesty of Tingwei Temple.

Speaking of the position of Tingwei, Zhang Tie asked when he first went to Tingwei Temple, and when he heard the subordinate say "a thousand stones", Zhang Tie was dumbfounded.

"Could it be that the finances of this Youzhou are so difficult that they can't even afford to issue gold coins, as a state lieutenant. Is it actually to get corn grains to live? ”

Zhang Tie knew that in ancient times before the cataclysm, the Chinese officials' salaries were not gold and silver coins, but calculated by how many stones and how many stones of grain. He didn't expect him to have such a day, Zhang Tie was still puzzled, looking at the scale of this Youzhou City. Although this Youzhou is the lower state of Taixia, it will not make the officials so wolfy. Could it be that Taixia is this tune, and he really treats officials as public servants. The so-called public servant. History has proven that it is only the greatest humor in human history before the cataclysm.

After Zhang Tie finished speaking, he found that the people around him in the entire Tingwei Temple had strange faces, and many of them had red faces all of a sudden.

"Ahem...... cough ......" After half a sound, an official in the Tingwei Temple coughed twice before he said to Zhang Tie, "Lord Tingwei doesn't know, this Taixia official system is different from other continents and countries, this so-called Yulu is also the ancient Chinese system, according to the ancient Chinese system, thirty catties is one jun, four jun is one stone, the weight of this stone, that is, one hundred and twenty catties, which is equivalent to sixty kilograms, my lord, your annual rank is one thousand stones, that is, sixty thousand kilograms, but this kilogram refers not to grain, but to gold!" Shi is the rank unit of Taixia officials, and in this Xiazhou land, the lowest official from the ninth rank has a rank of one stone a year......"

Gold? Do you earn 1,000 stone of gold a year? 2,400,000 gold coins? It is equivalent to the income of his family in Heiyan City for more than 200,000 years? Zhang Tie was speechless, this Taixia is rich, Taixia officials are so high that it is impossible to evaluate, the officials' wealth is measured by stones, and in the entire human world, it is estimated that only Taixia has such ability......

In the past two days, Zhang Tie occasionally heard a word, called "the person who led the stone", I didn't understand what it meant, at this time I heard this, Zhang Tie suddenly realized, this is the "elegant name" of the Taixia folk officials, the lowest in Xiazhou from the Jiupin County Order also has a stone, that is, an income of 2400 gold coins, it seems that the officials of Taixia are really well-off.

However, although the rank of Taixia officials is high, the entire Taixia, no matter who it is, up to the three dukes, down to the pavilion chief, the family property and family assets at the time of his appointment need to be declared for the record, and the punishment of the officials who are corrupt and bribery is also extremely severe and severe, and the punishment of the corrupt officials is to punish them for "swallowing gold", and the amount of gold coins for corruption and bribery will be punished for how many gold coins they swallow, and if they do not die, they will not be investigated, if they die, they will be fined and confiscated, and their children and grandchildren will not be allowed to enter the office, and the whistleblower can obtain all the shares of the property of the officials who report the corruption and bribery of the officials, and therefore, in Taixia, Officials who dare to embezzle and accept bribes of more than 10 gold coins are all rare people with in their heads, and they can't find two people in a state in a year.

Seeing that Zhang Tie didn't speak, the others thought that Zhang Tie was too little.

"This Youzhou has just been upgraded to the establishment, and the adult's salary is indeed a little lower, but the adult is still young, the future is immeasurable and prestigious, there are adults guarding Youzhou, this Youzhou neighbor Xiao Xiao evil will inevitably walk on thin ice, dare not move a little, Youzhou public security and customs are calm, if the examination is praised, this governor's mansion and even the imperial court, there are also years of merit rewards, that year's merit rewards are generally extremely heavy, and it is common for those who rank several times to be rich, and there are even rare treasures, subordinates and other adults can also be stained!"

……

Just dipped in the Tingwei Temple in Youzhou City, and the next day, Zhang Tie left Youzhou City.

This Tingwei institution has existed in Taixia for eight or nine hundred years, and in these eight or nine hundred years, the regulations of this institution's qiē system have already matured and completed to the extreme, and its daily operation has laws to follow, rules to follow, and self-contained, even if Zhang Tie is not there, Youzhou Tingwei Temple can still operate.

As the court lieutenant of Youzhou, Zhang Tie originally held the power to appoint many officials of the court lieutenant organs in this state, but Zhang Tie was not interested in this, and there was indeed no human power around him that needed to be placed, so Zhang Tie also left this matter to the family masters and elders of Huaiyuan Hall to worry about, the officials at all levels in the Tingwei Temple, whether they were from within the family, or from the compromise and exchange with various wealthy families in Youzhou, or even the selection of talents in the people, it didn't matter to Zhang Tie, anyway, he believed that this kind of thing, Huaiyuantang will definitely think about it for himself.

People who love power may rack their brains for this kind of thing, but Zhang Tie is actually not a lover of power, he knows that for a knight, the greatest power does not come from the outside, but from the accumulation of his own strength.

At this time, the dispute over the history of Youzhou has just settled, and the entire Youzhou is slowly on the right track, Zhang Tie estimates that in this Tingwei Temple, there will be nothing to do for the time being, and after setting a few rules for the Tingwei Temple, Zhang Tie will no longer waste time, take the airship, and return to Jinguang City.

……

At noon on the 14th, Zhang Tie's airship had just left Youzhou City......

"Tell the family master, Elder Mu Shen has just left Youzhou City in an airship!" In the Ming Hall of the Assassin's Mansion, an official from the Huaiyuan Hall of the Assassin's Mansion leaned over and reported to Zhang Taixuan.

"yes, got it!" Zhang Taixuan's face remained unchanged, put down an official document in his hand that was waiting for his approval, and asked lightly, "Did Elder Mu Shen have any explanation in the Tingwei Temple yesterday?" ”

In the Tingwei Temple, Elder Mu Shen said that before he came to Youzhou, he had met the poisonous wolf Zhu Liang on the wanted list in the Taixia Tingwei Mansion off the coast of Qiongzhou, and the poisonous wolf Zhu Liang was being hunted and pursued by two bounties Xing, but it was still difficult to change his cruel and vicious nature, and the thief nature was difficult to change, which made him remember, so he told Youzhou Tingwei Temple that he must pay attention to the characters and news on the wanted list, and be sure not to let those characters on the wanted list sneak into Youzhou to make waves. Anything on the wanted list, he had to be the first to know. ”

Zhang Taixuan waved his hand lightly, and the family deacon who spoke hunched back and left......

Waiting for the person to leave, Zhang Taixuan gently rubbed the strangely colored wrench he was wearing on his hand, pondered slightly for half a minute, and then picked up the official document he had just put down again......

……

After getting on the airship, Zhang Tie didn't bother to look at the scenery below, but directly took out the Earth Yuan Crystal in his cabin and cultivated.

This battle over the history of the assassination also touched Zhang Tie very much, and it also gave Zhang Tie a sense of crisis, especially the contest with the last demon knight, the strength of the demon knight made him almost can't help but show his hole cards at that time, so as soon as he had time at this moment, he hurried to cultivate.

In the past, in order to save the consumption of his own earth element crystal, Zhang Tie only put half of his energy on the earth element crystal, and the other half captured the multi-faceted crystals of those free earth elements in the elemental world, and after experiencing this battle of thorn history, Zhang Tie had changed his method, reviewed his "frugality", and began to use all his energy, the eighteen spiritual power hands that were conjured up, were used to carry the earth elements contained in the earth element crystal, such a cultivation effect, the consumption of the earth element crystal will be very fast, and the efficiency, is almost twice as fast as the previous two-pronged approach.

Taixia is as strong as a cloud, and he may encounter any danger in the future, so first absorb the Diyuan Crystal in his hand as quickly as possible, and let his strength increase in the shortest time is the most important thing, as for the consumption of Diyuan Crystal...... Let's figure it out when it's gone...... Zhang Tie thought secretly.

With such an efficiency, it only took two hours for Zhang Tie to absorb a Diyuan Crystal......

With it taking an average of one and a half days for other knights to absorb a Diyuan Crystal, Zhang Tie's efficiency, if you say it, is simply appalling......
