Chapter 27 Smooth sailing in the county

In order to enhance the combat effectiveness of his subordinates and improve their ability to defend himself, Tai Shici asked Bo Cai to copy the secrets of "Overlord" and "Sun Arrow" by hand, and let Bo Cai be responsible for supervision and let them practice these two skills.

Bo Cai and all the soldiers are naturally very excited. In the past, only Guan Ji's confidence could practice the martial arts of Guan Ji's family. Now the new leader allows them to practice "Overlord" suitable for close combat and let them practice "Sun Arrow" suitable for long-range attack. This kindness is enough for them to accept Tai Shici from the bottom of their hearts.

After all this, Tai Shici left Huanglong Valley with his mother, who also deliberately pretended to be ugly and old, and went to Donglai County to find a job. Because of the moisturizing effect of the elixir, Liu has returned to his youthful appearance. If it is not for the maturity of his eyes and the thickness of femininity, Liu and Taishici are definitely not mother and son when they walk together. Others only think that they are siblings through their similar appearance. Therefore, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Liu had to deliberately pretend to be old and ugly...

In the era of "filial piety and integrity", will Tai Shici's job-seeking process go smoothly?

Tai Shici took his mother and golden monkey to the market and poured into Donglai County with the flow of people. Because Taishi Ci mysteriously disappeared for four years, the Liu family was even more in-depth and simple, so no one on the ground of the county did not know their existence.

Even if there was bloodshed in the seaside fishing village a few days ago, due to the strong dispatch and control of Bo, the outside world did not know what happened to the fishing village.

On the long coastline, there are too many villages as large as fishing villages. A few disappears a day, and it will not attract the attention of others. In troubled times, how many people have the leisure to pay attention to inconspicuous things?

Tai Shici first went to the fish market. There was a huge change in the fish market and 20 years ago: 20 years ago, the fish market basically sold freshwater fish, and a small part of it was sea fish. The fish market has not changed much from ten years ago: due to the rise of war, no freshwater fish were caught, so that sea fish were full of them and became the protagonists.

As a result, the fishermen by the sea live a good life. Originally, in times of peace and prosperity, inland people did not like to eat sea fish, that is, deep-sea high-class fish species are also paid tribute to inland princes and nobles, and the income of fishing villages mainly depends on salt production. In today's troubled times, the source of income of fishing villages has expanded: you can sell sea fish...

Of course, Tai Shici will not choose his residence in a commercial downtown area. That kind of environment is too noisy, and there will be a fight every moment. Liu, who likes quiet, can't hold it. It turned out that Tai Shici didn't want to get close to the family's place of residence. If you don't see, you won't be upset...

After going back and going, Tai Shici finally chose to live in the entertainment area. The so-called entertainment area is the area where brothels, casinos and inns gather.

This is a single-door house, and the original owner has been killed by the bandits at that time. Taishici didn't have the money to buy this house, but he has jewelry and jade.

In the government's institution, Tai Shici paid for the purchase of the residence. At that time, the county lieutenant present took a fancy to Tai Shici's superman's body and invited Tai Shici to join his team.

Tai Shici agreed to the request of the county lieutenant on the spot. Tai Shici took the token given to him by the county lieutenant and pretended to leave the government happily.

Tai Shici confirmed his residence, and the people sent by Huanglonggu also set up stalls near his residence, such as selling sugar-coated haws, red dates, pancakes, and rouge powder...

These products are also in the surrounding environment. After all, this is an entertainment area.

Tai Shici and his mother Liu cleaned up the abandoned courtyard and added some furniture. The next day, after Taishi Ci asked the golden monkey to protect his mother, he took the token and went to the county government.

The golden monkey also has a name at this time, that is, Guo Jia teased to give the golden monkey a name: Gold Lord! The golden monkey with a name is also very happy.

Under the introduction of County Lieutenant Zhu Bi, Tai Shici and ten colleagues looked at him. Women are afraid of marrying the wrong man, and men are afraid of entering the wrong line. Although the county lieutenant Zhu Bi is tall and big, his ten subordinates are really not worth seeing: their eyes are slanted, their mouths are crooked, and they are hunched... There are only people you can't think of, and these ten government officials are all occupied.

Tai Shici stood in the middle, and he stood out from the crowd. In private, Zhu Bi explained to Taishici: Brother Taishi, no normal man now wants to be a yaman. Some of them have the ability, and they are requisitioned by the army... There is no way. The county lieutenant just pulled these middle-aged people into the yamen... Hey hey, no wine, the wine lees are also good, which is better than nothing...

Tai Shici half pulled his face and had no choice but to accept the cruel reality.

Next, the county lieutenant complained to Taishi Ci: It is said that the state government is preparing food and military salary in preparation for the near future to mobilise the army to clean up the remnants of the Yellow Turban Army on the ground in Qingzhou... A few days ago, Zhao Pu, the county magistrate, entrusted the task of collecting taxes in the county area to the headquarters. Ten thousand taels... How can so many silver liang be collected? Ah!

"Ha ha, Lieutenant Zhu, my subordinates have seen that the county is still prosperous in recent years, 10,000 taels, which should not be a big amount..." Tai Shici pretended to be simple.

Zhu Bi looked at Tai Shici and shook his head in distress: "In fact, ten thousand taels of silver is not much. The daily commercial profit of the whole county also has 10,000 taels... However, the merchants with commercial profits are all large local clans, and even the county magistrates dare not easily offend. How can we deal with this?"

Looking at the sad face of the county lieutenant Zhu Bi, Tai Shici couldn't help thinking of the funny talk between Guo Jia and Bo Cai: In order to suppress the rebellious yellow scarf army and raise salary, the Ling Emperor at that time pulled out 100,000 taels of silver from the treasury. At the same time, he ordered the prince and nobles to hand over the silver. As a result, all the princes and nobles took it out sparsely. It's only 400,000 taels of silver in total. Later, Dong Zhuo entered the capital Luoyang and could not stand the criticism of civil and military officials. Dong Zhuo ordered the Xiliang generals to slaughter the city. As a result, from the warehouse of a large family alone, Dong Zhuo obtained two million taels of snowflakes of silver, and other jewelry is not included...

In the same case, the clans in Donglai County must also hide a lot of real gold and silver. The key to the problem is how to pry open their iron-like teeth and let them spit out a little private collection?

Tai Shici asked inquiring tone, "Zhu Xianwei, what if we force the expropriation? In extraordinary times, extraordinary means are necessary!"

"Brother Taishi, you don't know anything. Forcibly expropriate, you have to beat the iron and make yourself hard. They are all warriors who are proficient in martial arts to protect their homes. On the contrary, we are just weak people. If we forcibly expropriate, won't we take eggs and hit stones? Ha ha..." Zhu Bi tilted her mouth and said with a wry smile, "If I can't finish this task, I will be dismissed by the county magistrate... Ha ha, this is also the reason why I force you to be a partner. I always have to find a good helper for the county magistrate..."

What should young people do when they encounter difficulties, especially the boss's problems? The scholar died for his confidant... Tai Shici said to Zhu Bi with an unconvinced face, "Zhu Xianwei, I haven't tried one thing. How can I know the result? Lieutenant Zhu, the clan in the county is more awesome?

Zhu Bi looked at Tai Shici, who looked arrogant, and his thoughts were no longer controlled by himself. He seemed to be hypnotized and whispered to Tai Shici, "There are not ten clans and eight clans in the county. Now the Huang clan is in the limelight. They have monopolized the business of pubs, brothels and casinos in the county..."

"Oh, those businesses come quickly!" Tai Shici gritted his teeth and said, "Captain Zhu, today Ci is going to attack them and collect taxes!"

"This..." Zhu Bi responded confusedly.

"A man is upright. He can do what he wants. Is his mother-in-law still a man?" Tai Shici looked impatient.

Next, under Zhu Bi's surprised attention, Tai Shici changed into the government service clothes, took the iron chain of the government service, and grabbed the door.
