Chapter Seventy-One: The Black Market
"Ahh
On the afternoon of the second day, in the county Zhu Yamen, when Zhou Ang found Du Yi and asked him to issue him a certificate of legal income, Du Yi was obviously a little confused, and when Zhou Ang told the truth of the matter, he couldn't help laughing on the spot.
"This matter is easy!" he said with a somewhat playful smile: "Every sum of money sent out by our yamen has a file to check, I can transcribe a copy for you, but the key sentence is to be hidden, and then, you take it to the county to seal it, how about it? But what about the future?
Zhou Ang was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then smiled.
That's right, too.
The most probative thing, of course, is the big seal of the county blessing, and the red stamp is the official statement, but how can the big seal of the official government be used for such a trivial matter?
Besides, this time it's solved, but what about the next time?
In the system of the county Zhu Yamen, although every time he encounters a case, the danger is great, but the person who has the ability does make money very quickly, but the bounty that can see the light is already a lot, not to mention that there are some legitimate default rules, such as who kills the demon or person alone, what is searched from him, as long as it is not related to the things that must be reported, the rest of the property belongs to the individual, although this is not seen in the law, but it is also a rule recognized by everyone in this system.
But out of the need for confidentiality, these reasonable and legal incomes have become invisible to their families when they are faced with their families.
After thinking about it, I had to give up.
It seems that this black pot of "quick money" and "corruption" cannot be shaken off for a while.
Fortunately, as long as you are in the know, you must be the closest person to you, otherwise you will not have the opportunity to know your financial changes. And relatives, in this era, will definitely help you hide it.
Datang has a law: relatives and relatives are hidden, they are responsible for humanity, and they are not held accountable.
Putting the matter aside for the time being, after drinking a cup of tea, Zhou Ang decided to continue looking at the archives - the things recorded there were quite dark and challenging to human nature, but Zhou Ang felt that the more he knew about dark things, the more he could help him stay calm when he encountered them.
Only by knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can one not be defeated.
This time Wei Ci had run out, so Zhou Ang wrote a small procedure and sent it to Du Yi to sign, which was considered to have completed the formalities and asked for the key to his own hands.
This look was nearly an hour, until he went to the toilet, Zhou Ang still recalled the accounts in those files in his mind, and was walking when he came out of the toilet, and unexpectedly, he saw a figure standing down on the verandah from a distance, and he came back to his senses, looked up, but saw that it was Guo Yuan.
The county Zhu Yamen now has three squads of "troops" on the surface, and each team has a colonel, or team leader, and this Guo Yuan is one of the three team leaders.
Far away, when he saw Zhou Ang coming, he had already stopped, and when Zhou Ang got a little closer, he bowed slightly, and his attitude was a little indescribably flattering, "I've seen Clerk Zhou." ”
If the seven military personnel headed by Du Yi, plus Zhou Ang, a semi-military officer, can be regarded as the core force of the county Zhu Yamen, responsible for the arrest and crackdown of key events, key cases and key people, then the three squads that are usually responsible for bombing, rounding up, and even including the tasks of listening are the peripheral forces of the county Zhu Yamen- After knowing that his true identity was not a clerk, it was expected that he would have some respect for himself, so Zhou Ang was not surprised, and he also arched his hand with a smile on his face, and said, "Captain Guo!"
Although Guo Yuan put down his hand when he heard this, his bowing posture did not change, and his smile became more and more flattering, "Don't dare to be a clerk of Zhou and call him a 'school captain', when you are not a person, you can just call me Xiao Guo!"
As he spoke, he saw Zhou Ang walking past him, and he turned around and followed.
Zhou Ang was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and couldn't help but look at his face - he had to say less than thirty!
But on the contrary, whether it is his flattery and flattery, or whether he is hunched over at the moment and follows up, he has done it so calmly and naturally, and this sentence has a sense of sincerity, and he does not feel disobedient at all.
"Lieutenant Guo is polite, are you waiting for me here?"
Since the other party turned around like this and kept up, of course Zhou Ang would guess like this, so he asked in passing, but he didn't think about it, and the other party immediately answered, "Clerk Zhou's eyes are correct!"
Zhou Ang stopped and looked at him.
"Something?" he asked.
Guo Yuan still had that flattering smile, bowed slightly, and said, "The humble position is to ask Clerk Zhou for convenience." ”
Zhou Ang was surprised and asked him curiously, "Where is the convenience?"
When Guo Yuan heard this, he looked left and right at no one, so he lowered his voice and said: "I know that Clerk Zhou's ability is first-class, and from time to time there will be some special hunting. ”
Seeing Zhou Ang's eyes narrowed slightly and frowned, he hurriedly explained: "The villain doesn't mean anything else, it just refers to those harvests that can be at the disposal of Clerk Zhou alone. ”
After a pause, he continued, "For example, you single-handedly killed a demon or killed a criminal. At this time, of course, you can hand over the demon's body, the yamen has a reward, and the property on the criminal's body, as well as some small items that are not very important, as long as it does not affect the meritorious service, can be at your own disposal, which can be regarded as a reward. But...... Have you ever thought about it, but you can actually not turn it in!"
"Huh?" Zhou Ang's brows furrowed slightly.
He continued to laugh, "We have many masters in the yamen, and it is not difficult to meet the requirements of the assessment every month. And your own strength is even more powerful, and it is easy to hunt alone. But you have to know that there are also some yamen, such as the county Zhu Yamen of a certain county, they may not meet the requirements of the assessment in a certain month, at this time, they are willing to pay a little price in exchange for meeting the standard. ”
"Besides, the elixir of enlightenment is better, but the elixir of subsequent promotion needs to be accumulated little by little by relying on real meritorious deeds. Some people may have enough meritorious deeds, but they do not need to be promoted for the time being, and some people can already be promoted, but their merits are still a little bit short, and at this time, they can completely communicate with each other! This is a thing that is beneficial to everyone. ”
Speaking of this, he saw Zhou Ang showing a look of sudden realization, so he smiled and said: "For example, last time you single-handedly killed a nine-rank weasel demon, and you gave it to our yamen, if I guessed correctly, it should be sixty taels of silver, right?" If you give me something, what price do you think I can help you sell?"
After finishing speaking, he looked at Zhou Ang with the corner of his eyes, as if he was waiting for Zhou Ang to speak.
It's a pity that at this time, Zhou Ang was also squinting at him.
It's clearly a black market!
