The roads in the city are muddy, the shops are deserted, and the people walking on the roads have yellow faces and thin muscles, weak limbs, and they are malnourished at first glance.

If it is said that Xichang City is the world, Taoyuan County, it is heaven.

Lin Hao has become accustomed to this, after all, not everywhere is as rich as Taoyuan, otherwise those people would not have squeezed their heads and wanted to get Taoyuan Hukou.

"Why haven't you seen a beggar in this Xichang City?"

Song Li asked subconsciously.

Even in Yingtianfuzhong, walking along the Fang Market, you can meet a lot of beggars, and things are abnormal.

The corners of Wang Xianzhi's mouth twitched, and all the beggars in the entire Xichang City were arrested and put in prison overnight.

Just to give Lord Qincha a good impression, I didn't expect it to be a failure, and sure enough, the people from the court were not so easy to fool.

I just thought about finding some reason to fool the past, but was brought by Lin Hao with a smile: "There are no beggars, which means that Wang Zhixian has a good way of governing and the people are well fed and clothed, why do you want to be beggars?" ”

A touch of cunning flashed in Wang Xianzhi's eyes, what Lin Hao said was a bit like a corrupt official.

"Lord Lin praised falsely, there were still many beggars in the city, but now the situation is not good, every household has no surplus food, these beggars stay in the city, naturally there is no way to live, so they can only go out of the city to find another way out."

Wang Xianzhi arched his hand with a smile.

"Wang Zhixian is too modest, this is all your merit, how many state capitals we passed through, there are hungry people everywhere, is there no surplus grain in Xichang Mansion, do other state capitals have it, and when I return to Yingtian, I will definitely say a few good words for you in front of Your Majesty."

Lin Hao smiled and patted Wang Xianzhi's shoulder.

Wang Xianzhi was ecstatic in his heart, and he never thought that this minister was really fooled.

If you are filial piety again, wouldn't you know what Zhizhou has to do!?

Song Li frowned, he didn't know which one Lin Hao was playing, did he want to imply that Wang Zhixian was giving benefits.

But it doesn't seem to be the scene of taking out a million taels of silver tickets in the court before, he still remembers it vividly, how can this kind of person be short of silver?

It seems that Lin Hao was from the county before, could it be that the million taels of silver were earned like this?

I came to a restaurant with a wine seller flag outside the door.

The shopkeeper hurriedly got up: "Wang Zhixian, the banquet has been prepared for you, please go to the private room on the second floor." ”

A few people went up to the second floor, only to see two people sitting on the wine table.

"Lord Lin, Lord Song, let me introduce you to the two of you, this is Lord Chenghu of Xichang County, Lord Wang of the main book."

Wang Xianzhi smiled and pointed at the two.

Wang Dacheng, the chief bookkeeper of Xichang Mansion, is Wang Xianzhi's nephew, and the official is also donated.

Lin Hao never thought that he would be able to meet the old man here, Enke in the twenty-eighth year of Hongwu, Hu Yan Zhao Mu and him, who met in Yingtian Restaurant.

Zhao Mu and Lin Hao, because they offended Zhu Chun, the king of Shuxian, were sent to Taoyuan as officials.

And this nonsense, scheming, sent someone to the then head of the household Liu Guan to hand over a post, attached a thousand copper coins.

He was sent to Xichang to be a county official, although Xichang is said to be a county, it can be seen from the three characters of Xichang Mansion, and it can also be seen in the tube, and tens of thousands of people are ruled.

When Lin Hao and the two first arrived in Taoyuan, there were only 3,000 people under their rule, so the gap can be seen.

There is no background in the DPRK and China, and it is already good to be able to go to Xichang Mansion and other oily and fertile land.

The first thing he did after taking office was to conspire with Wang Xianzhi and the others to set up a winter clothing tax and a New Year's ring in Xichang Mansion.

Wantonly amassed wealth, and the money obtained was handed over to Liu Guan, the head of the household department, which meant that he would go one step further in his career.

Wang Xianzhi is also very happy about this, after all, he has no background in the court.

Liu Guan also promised to find an opportunity to let Hu Yan go to Luling County to serve as a general judge, although it is still an official position the size of a sesame mung bean, but it can be regarded as a two-level promotion.

But just recently, Yingtian came to the news that Liu Guan was beheaded for corruption, Hu Yan was so angry that his scalp was numb, he didn't catch it sooner or later, but at this time, the silver was gone, and the official position was not lost.

also completely cut off the connection with the DPRK, he was not reconciled, so he stayed in this small Xichang for the rest of his life.

So this time, when he heard that the imperial court was going to send Lord Qin to come down, he also knew that it was probably his last chance.

So he carried the 15,000 taels of silver that Wang Xianzhi had gathered, and prepared to use it to honor the minister of the imperial mission, in order to seek further progress in his career.

When Hu Yan saw Lin Hao clearly, he was angry, jealous, and ashamed...... Countless emotions spread to my heart.

Although it has been five years, he still remembers Lin Hao, Lin Hao was a third-class jinshi in Enke, but he was a second-class jinshi.

What's more, because he designed to frame Lin Hao, he offended Zhu Chun, the king of Shuxian, and was sent to be the magistrate of what bullshit Taoyuan was.

It is impossible to have a bright future in this life, why at this time, Lin Hao has changed and become the so-called minister!

But he has been guarding the cold kiln for five years, and he is still staying in the barren land of Xichang as a small county seat.

You must know that the ministers of the Qin Mission, no matter how bad they are, are all close ministers around the emperor, how can Lin Hao be this guy? !

After five years of experience, Hu Yan couldn't understand it anymore, no matter how outstanding your ability is, there is no one above, and it is impossible to be promoted.

Lin Hao was able to come to this point, presumably because he had a new background in the court, at least he was in the sixth department, otherwise even if the king of Shu Xian was now a vassal domain, he would not dare to offend easily.

"Lord Lin, I haven't seen you for a few years, I didn't expect you to be on the rise, Hu is really ashamed, I don't know how much the official worship is now?"

Although Hu Yan was unhappy in his heart, he still got up and arched his hand towards Lin Hao, Lin Hao didn't know what he had framed behind his back, and the two were classmates, what was the first thing to get the moon near the water, only Lin Hao could change his fate.

"Brother Hu Yan laughed, Lin Mou was also favored by Song Shangshu, and he was a doctor of Guozijian."

Lin Hao glanced at Song Li, waved his hand, and said helplessly.

A hint of ridicule flashed in Hu Yan's eyes, Dr. Guozijian is just a Qingshui Yamen, doing the things of a teacher, it seems to be beautiful, but he has no real power, and he can't even be a Xichang County man.

I didn't expect that Song Li, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, would come in person, Hu Yan was already trying to understand the whole story, the minister of the Qin mission must be Song Li, but Song Li was unwilling to show his face, so he let Lin Hao become the minister of the Qin mission.

I didn't expect Lin Hao, this kid, to take shit luck and win the favor of Lord Song Li.

But Hu Yan is not annoyed, as long as he knows, the person behind Lin Hao is Song Li, then it will be easy to do, what Lin Hao can do for Song Li, he can do the same nonsense, and he can do better than Lin Hao!
