Chapter Thirty-Six: Bandits

A group of ordinary people from Zhenhaiwei.

Wearing several worn-out rattan armors.

Rushing out of the night with wolves, sticks and harpoons.

In the dark wee hours of the morning, I couldn't see the people clearly.

The villagers practiced with Zhang Luo for several months.

In terms of momentum, it is more abundant than in the Battle of Houshan.

The fake official meets the fake soldier.

Zhang Luo ordered loudly in the dark.

The people of the guard quickly surrounded Zhu Xiaoer and his group.

Officers and soldiers were seen rushing out from both sides.

Zhu Xiaoer thought that he might have been ambushed by the government.

Frightened, stiffened.

The kitchen knife in his hand is almost unstable.

Zhang Luo walked to the center of the Mandarin Duck Formation.

With a serious tone shouted:

"So thieves, all lay down their weapons."

"Whoever resists will be killed!"

This is an asymmetrical confrontation.

I wish Xiao Eryi and his gang were still making salt in the Fuzhou salt factory half a year ago.

How could he have beaten the Weisho Xiangyong trained by Zhang Luo.

Although Zhang Luo's "Art of War" skills have not yet advanced.

But the leader of the formation of the guard Xiangyong.

It's still easy to defeat a dozen or so apprentice pirates with sticks.

Less than half an hour.

A group of pirates, including Zhu Xiaoer.

It was all taken down by Zhang Luo.

[Complete military missions, Art of War LV improvement, experience 30/60]

A little more experience.

Zhang Luo ordered everyone to escort the pirates.

Returned to Zhenhaiwei at night.

Wait until you return to Zhenhaiwei.

The sky was already dark.

A few slightly noisy rooster crows.

Heralding the arrival of a new day.

Zhang Luo and the others had just entered the village.

It attracted the attention of the people along the way.

Everyone came to the ancestral hall.

Zhang Luo imprisoned more than two dozen pirates in an empty room in the ancestral hall.

Since they don't have the official mansion's thief book.

That Zhang Luo did the right thing for heaven.

Shut them up for a few days.

Let them go with the death row gang to clear the wasteland.

After Zhang He returned, he handed over the money from selling salt to Zhang Luo.

Zhang Luo threw five copper plates to Zhang Luo.

Then he came to the ancestral hall and handed over the money bag to Ah Gong Zhang.

When the cloth bag was opened, the people on the side showed envious expressions.

I never thought that Zhang Luo had only been making salt for more than a month.

I earned thousands of copper plates.

Readers are amazing!

It will earn more money than ordinary health care farmers.

But for a talented person like Zhang Luo, who can read and have the ability.

The people of Zhenhaiwei will not have bad intentions.

Who made Zhang Luo so capable?

It's not hard to learn how to dry salt by the sea.

But how to remove the bitterness from coarse salt.

This is a wordless book for the people of Zhenhaiwei.

Zhang Luo entered the room where the pirates were being held.

More than 100 yuan was found from behind Zhu Xiaoer.

Zhang Luo handed them over to the meritorious townspeople.

He also took a few dozen pennies and invited them to have a morning drink outside the guard house.

Only then did the order be given to disband the Guard.

This time, Zhang Luo's prestige in Zhenhaiwei has improved a lot.

Wait until the village is gone.

Zhang Luo followed Zhang Ah Gong into the ancestral hall.

said in a deep voice to Ah Gong Zhang:

"These pirates actually do the official uniform of the county government."

"I'm afraid there's a lot of catty in it."

Zhang Ah Gong pestle on crutches and said:

"Zhenhaiwei is a military guard."

"It's our job to eradicate the thieves."

"Things in the county are chaotic."

"But I'm not afraid of what tricks they'll play."

Then Zhang Ah Gong took out two points of evidence from behind him, handed it to Zhang Luo and said:

"Zhang Luo, you are a scholar, what do you think in the future?"

Zhang Luo was stunned, these days, he was busy brushing up on system skills.

In my heart, I just want to make salt and earn some money to spend.

In the future, Zhang Luo didn't think about it.

Ah Gong Zhang continued:

"People who can read always have to improve."

"I know the guards can't keep you forever."

"These two pieces of paper."

"One is the document of the place of origin of the health office."

"You can confirm with the government that you are the nephew of the third master."

"The other is a very important guide."

Zhang Ah Gong took out another bronze medal and said:

"I've helped a student in the county for several years."

"You haven't joined the army for the imperial examination, so you need to be guided by your seniors."

"This is a token left by the students back then."

"If you take him, that person will take you to the children's test."

Zhang Luo was a little sour.

Ah Gong Zhang actually prepared everything for himself.

The imperial examination system in the Ming Dynasty was extremely complex.

To take the imperial examination.

It has to be a person who has a clear background in reading.

This requires the local government to issue a document of origin.

Prove that you are a good reader.

He has an innocent background and good moral character.

Those who have not sinned.

Then you also need a student in the county school or a student to recommend.

I'll give you a guarantee.

This will allow you to qualify for the county's children's exam.

The process of the child test is very tedious.

Multiple exams are required.

There are several levels.

If they have passed, they will become students.

Or there's a more familiar name, Xiucai.

The student is one of the students.

It is also called a restaurant.

Some are also talents.

He studied in a state school or a county school.

Some local governments give grain and rice at the beginning of each month.

It's a public-raised reader.

Since the Zhengde period.

The government exchanged the grain and rice for silver.

At the beginning of each month, one to two taels of silver are distributed.

In addition to public reading.

There are also many benefits such as exemption from paying taxes, exemption from forced labor, etc.

became a showman, which can be regarded as a half-step into the gentry.

There are no more than 20 people in one county.

By giving people a guarantee before the start of the children's exam.

This is also another source of income for the company.

There are many people in Fujian who take the children's test every year.

That's a lot of money.

In order to take care of Zhang Luo, Ah Gong Zhang participated in the children's test.

Get all the paperwork ready.

I attach great importance to Zhang Luo.

Zhang Luo bent down.

He bowed solemnly to Ah Gong Zhang and said:

"Uncle, Zhen Haiwei's great kindness to Zhang Luo."

"Zhang Luo is toothless and unforgettable."

Ah Gong Zhang helped Zhang Luo up and said:

"If you become a great talent in the future."

"Don't forget the people of Zhenhaiwei."

"Tomorrow, Changwei will go to the county to pay the fine."

"You go with him and get the pre-test paperwork for the children's exam."

Zhang Luo hurriedly nodded several times.

I have been traveling to Zhenhaiwei for several months.

I was finally able to leave the countryside and enter the county seat.

Zhang Luo returned to the wing.

Get ready to pack up what you're going to use.

But at the door, he found Zhang Wangsheng, a little stunned man with an angry face.

"Okay, you Zhang Luo, you didn't take me to the ghost market last night!"

See Zhang Luo.

Zhang Wangsheng walked up to Zhang Luo in a few steps and asked.

Zhang Luo chuckled and explained:

"Yesterday I was going to catch pirates, so it's not appropriate to take you there."

"It's to catch the thief, why can't my brother who is now a hundred households go!"

"And I'm still the next hundred."

"You little brat, your teeth haven't grown, don't go cool."

"I'm only so old, I'm thinking about fighting pirates."

Zhang Wangsheng and Zhang Luo made a fuss for a while.

In the blink of an eye, he said:

"Brother Zhang Luo, I heard that Brother He said that you are going to the county tomorrow."

"As long as you promise to take me to the county."

"I will forgive you for your sins."
