The five-power god of the world of gods and ghosts!

Chapter 53 Winning!

He took Zhao Jiuniu all the way to the city gate.

"The fifth channel leader. Who is this?"

Looking at Zhao Jiuniu who was following behind Deng Yang, a guard guarding the city gate immediately walked up.

Since the establishment of Deng Yang's Yizhuang, most of the business has been related to the county government. In addition, Bei Chonghu has been wooing him intentionally or unintentionally. Most of these gatekeepers are people under Bei Chonghu, so they naturally know him. .

"The business in my Yizhuang has been booming recently. This is the man I selected. Don't worry, I will take him to the county government to register his identity, so I won't embarrass you."

Since the number of refugees in Beifeng County has increased, in order to maintain stability in the county and prevent refugees from swarming into the county, not only have the population checks in the city become more frequent in recent times, but even the guards at the city gate have become increasingly strict. It became stricter.

Regarding this point, Deng Yang was clear in his heart and knew that this was the work of Bei Chonghu and others.

As for what they want to do, Deng Yang also has some guesses in his mind.

Although the land of Cangzhou nominally belonged to the Daqian imperial court, most areas were governed by local forces, and Beifeng County was no exception.

In the past, the governance power of Beifeng County had always been in the hands of the three major families in the city. The so-called county magistrate was just a puppet of the three major families.

But since Bei Chonghu and his gang arrived, they began to gradually intervene in the affairs of the county in the name of the county government.

However, the magistrate of Beifeng County is a weakling. On the one hand, he is the magistrate appointed by Da Qian, and on the other hand, he is wary of the power of the three major families in the city.

Therefore, it has been wavering between the two forces.

Although Beifeng County is still quite peaceful on the surface, there are already turbulent undercurrents secretly.

Thinking of this, Deng Yang couldn't help but sigh in his heart: A storm is coming.

The most important thing is that in recent times, the magistrate of Beifeng County and Bei Chonghu and others have sent people to contact him.

As for the purpose, it is nothing more than trying to win him over.

It's just that Deng Yang just wants to collect 'good fruits' here with peace of mind, and is really not interested in participating in this worldly power struggle. Therefore, he has never made it clear that he wants to win over the two parties.

However, Deng Yang also knew very well that this was a struggle for power between the two sides, and it was only in secret. Once this conflict was brought to the surface, neither Bei Chonghu's side nor the three major families would allow him to be such a threat. Instability factors exist.

If it really comes to that point, there are only two ways before Deng Yang, either to fall to one of the parties and participate completely, or to leave Beifeng County and go somewhere else.

Of course, there is another option, which is to overturn the table directly at the end.

If it were in the past, Deng Yang did not take the two forces in Beifeng County seriously. Even if he now has very little power due to physical reasons, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. , with his divine way of practicing, there is indeed no need to take the three major families and Bei Chonghu and others too seriously.

However, after experiencing the unwarranted vigilance he felt from Mrs. Ning just now, Deng Yang suddenly became wary. Perhaps he thought of these two forces too simply.

Naturally, the gatekeeper didn't know what Deng Yang was thinking.
"That's good. It's my duty. Please forgive me, Chief of the Fifth Channel."

Seeing Deng Yang's indifferent expression and not wanting to say anything, the guard guarding the gate quickly let him go.

After all, what he did was just a routine matter. As for asking for benefits, he did not dare to ask for benefits. Although he did not know the origin of the fifth channel leader, he knew that this person was a ruthless person who even their immediate superiors needed to please.And being assigned to guard the gate, he still has some sharp eyesight, so he naturally knows who can and cannot be provoked.

Don't think that guarding the gate is nothing. This is a lucrative job, and ordinary people really can't get it. As the saying goes, "The king of hell is easy to deal with, but the devil is difficult to deal with." This is not just the gatekeeper, let alone the gate of a county.

After returning to the county town, Deng Yang immediately took Zhao Jiuniu to the county government office to apply for household registration again.

"Five aisles long, long time no see"

As soon as I walked into the gate of the county government office, I met an elegant middle-aged man in his early forties wearing a blue gown, with a white face and no beard.

This person was Hu Boda, the magistrate of Beifeng County. On the surface, he seemed indifferent and elegant, but Deng Yang knew that this person was not as simple as he appeared.

Although he has not been in Beifeng County for a long time, Deng Yang has heard that before Hu Boda, several magistrates of Beifeng County died for no reason. As for how those magistrates appointed by the imperial court died, there is no need to think about it. Also know.

However, it has been more than a year since Hu Boda took over as the magistrate of Beifeng County, and he was able to get the three major families in the county to acquiesce to his existence.

Although he is just a puppet with no rights, he still holds the righteousness in his name and can still survive, which shows his ability.

"I've met the county magistrate."

Facing this scheming magistrate, although Deng Yang didn't take him too seriously, he at least maintained a superficial respect.

"Come here, please serve tea to the Taoist priest!"

"To be honest with the Taoist priest, ever since Old Wu retired, the county government office has been vacant."

"As long as the Taoist priest agrees to take up a post in the yamen, the county will make the decision and allocate funds to build a Taoist temple in the north of the city for the Taoist priest to worship the Taoist priest. I don't know what the long-term plans will be."

After inviting Deng Yang into his study, Hu Boda immediately put forward his suggestions with enthusiasm. Compared with the last invitation, this time it was full of sincerity.

"Thank you for your kindness, sir. If it's just in name, I don't have any problem with it."

"It's just that there are some things that need to be said first. Pindao is a monk. Apart from his own duties, Pindao will not interfere in other affairs within the county government."

Facing Hu Boda's invitation, Deng Yang hesitated for a while and then decided to agree first.

After all, Hu Boda is also the chief official of Beifeng County. If he wants to hang around here, it's hard to refute his face too much.

And after experiencing what happened outside the city just now, Deng Yang also knew that sometimes even if he didn't want to get involved in these worldly matters, it might not be realistic.

Instead of doing this, it would be better to change from passive to active, agree to Hu Boda's invitation first, and then act according to the situation.

"Don't worry, Chief Daoist. This county still understands the rules. From now on, all affairs in the county government's autopsy room will be decided by the Daoist Chief. From now on, the Daoist Chief will only need to come to the county government office once every half month. The rest of the time, the Daoist Chief will Feel free to do whatever you want.”
