Hearing the news that the new head catcher was coming, Chen Xiaoer and Liu Zizai glanced at each other, and then immediately expressed their determination.

Chen Xiaoer said: "Head, no matter who holds the position of the head catcher, we will definitely listen to you, you let us go east, we will definitely not go west." ”

Liu Zizai nodded: "I am the same." ”

For the two of them, their current status in the Yamen was brought to them by Xu Rong.

They and Xu Rongna are both prosperous and lossy, so naturally they are biased towards Xu Rong.

Liu Zizai proposed: "Head, why don't we put it in the air when the time comes, with your current prestige, plus you are a local, isn't this much better than the outsider who doesn't know where to come from?" ”

"As long as no one listens to him, then he is a bare-bones commander, even if he has a reputation for catching heads, so what?"

For an old oilman like Liu Zizai, he has seen a lot of such things.

Now, for the sake of his own interests, he naturally wants to encourage Xu Rong to do this.

Of course, this is also good for Xu Rong.

Chen Xiaoer also nodded: "As long as you speak, we guarantee that this so-called head catcher will not stay here for long, and he will have to get out of the way." ”

The catchers and servants of the yamen are all locals, so they naturally stand on the same front as Xu Rong.

Coupled with Xu Rong's purge of the yamen these days, the vast majority of the arresters and servants, even if they are not biased towards Xu Rong, are extremely in awe of Xu Rong.

After all, Xu Rong's deeds of easily defeating Huo Mingjue and then exterminating the Black Snake Gang happened not long ago, and most people have to be in awe of the strong.

But despite the many advantages, Xu Rong shook his head: "No, we can do what we want, as long as this person is not excessive, then let him be." ”

"This ......"

Liu Zizi wanted to speak and stopped, he didn't understand that Xu Rong didn't want to take the power of the yamen into his own hands, but asked them not to squeeze out this new head catcher?

Seeing Liu Zizi's appearance, Xu Rong understood what he was thinking, and couldn't help sighing: "You have been on the edge of the yamen for so many years, and it is really not without reason. ”

Xu Rong's words made Liu Zizai's face a little hot, and he smiled embarrassedly.

However, he was still a little puzzled: "Head, is there any secret in this?" ”

"Didn't I tell you before? The county order originally wanted to use me to balance Huo Mingjue, but now what happened to Huo Mingjue? What is the situation in the Yamen today? ”

Xu Rong's series of rhetorical questions made Liu Zizi suddenly realize.

"So that's the case, no wonder you became the deputy catcher at a young age, and I can only be a small catcher, we all look at the problem at different levels."

Xu Rong didn't care about Liu Zizai's sycophancy, this kind of thing, I heard the same person say it too much, so that's it.

Chen Xiaoer also reacted at this time: "So the county order is planning to use this new head catcher to balance you?" No wonder you said don't set him up, it turns out that the county order is standing behind him. ”

In fact, if Xu Rong wants to do it, he can still do it, but in that case, he will inevitably offend the county order.

This county order has a good background, and there is really no need to offend such a person for some power.

Moreover, after all, the county commander is his top boss, and if he does such a thing, his reputation will not be good, which is not conducive to future development.

Overall, the disadvantages outweigh the advantages, and there is no need to do such a thankless task.

After Xu Rong explained the confusion of the two, he stood up: "Let's go, go gather people and go to Niutou Village." ”

"Yes, head!"

Liu Zizai and Chen Xiaoer responded, dispersed, and gathered people.

Xu Rong thought for a moment and prepared to meet the county commander Zhang Su.

This matter needs to be informed to him, otherwise if it is really a plague, then the matter will be a big deal, and he needs to take the overall situation and make a decision.

Plague has always been a terrible thing, but if it can be controlled within a range and does not spread, then it is not a big deal.

Therefore, when necessary, it may be necessary to completely isolate Niutou Village and control the source.

In this quasi-ancient context with no protective measures, there is almost only one way to control the source, and that is humane destruction.

This is undoubtedly an extremely cruel thing for those who suffer from the plague.

When he came to the back hall of the yamen, the county commander Zhang Su was playing chess with his staff.

"Your Excellency."

Xu Rong stepped forward and saluted.

Zhang Su turned his head, saw that it was Xu Rong, and said with a smile: "Xu Rong, do you have something?" ”

For Xu Rong, Zhang Su originally admired it very much, after all, Xu Rong was also supported by him to his current position.

It's just that as Xu Rong's prestige gets higher and higher, and his voice in the yamen becomes more and more powerful, he can't help but feel jealous in his heart.

Fortunately, Xu Rong had great respect for him from beginning to end, which made Zhang Su feel a little at ease.

Xu Rong briefly said the matter.

After hearing this, Zhang Su's face was calm, and he no longer had the heart to play chess.

He put the chess pieces down, and then asked in a deep voice, "How many people know about this?" ”

"Not many people know, the news came back from a village chief near Niutou Village, I heard that the two villages have not been dealing with each other, and this time I found something suspected to be a plague, so I came to report it."

Xu Rong said solemnly: "I have asked him to strictly abide by this matter and not spread it, and now the news should not have spread, I am preparing to bring some people and a few doctors in the city to check the situation." ”

"If it's an ordinary wind evil infection, then it's okay to say, if it's a real plague, you have to plan early."

After Zhang Su listened, he nodded slowly: "You have arranged very thoughtfully, if it is confirmed that it is a plague, then you will immediately block Niutou Village, strictly check whether any outsiders have been to Niutou Village in the past few days, control these people, and if necessary, burn these people, the plague cannot resist the high temperature." ”

This is the reason why Xu Rong came to Zhang Su, to destroy so many people, he can't afford such a crime.

However, this is the simplest and most effective method, and if you have to do so, you can only do it to prevent the plague from spreading.

"Yes, sir."

Xu Rong could only pray at this time, this time it was just an ordinary infectious disease, otherwise, the situation would be very bad.

"You go and deal with this matter, the sooner you react, the better, otherwise when the plague expands, there will be no way to contain it."

Zhang Su's originally relaxed smile had disappeared and was replaced by a heaviness.

His term of office expires next year, and if this happens at this time, it will be difficult for him to be promoted.

"Yes, sir, I'll go."
