Traveling to Daliang Kingdom starts from falling into the water

In Daliang, the county government is also a small local institution, but although it is small, it has all the internal organs.

There are county magistrates of the seventh rank, county magistrates of the eighth rank, chief administrators of the ninth rank, county captains of the ninth rank, ministers of the ninth rank, and "three classes and six rooms".

The "three classes" refer to the Zaoban, Kuaiban, and Zhuangbans, collectively known as the Yamen; the "six rooms" refer to the household room, the official room, the military room, the execution room, the work room, and the ceremonial room.

It corresponds to the six departments of the imperial court.

But here the county magistrate is a casual soldier, who will be replaced after a few years of service. On the contrary, the positions of three shifts and six houses are often dominated by local subordinates, which has become an iron-clad camp.

As the saying goes: "The king of hell is easy to meet, but the devil is difficult to deal with."

When ordinary people deal with county governments, those who are most likely to be bullied are often things caused by these little devils.

These brats are basically locals, their positions have been passed down from generation to generation, and they have professional skills. Sometimes, without their cooperation, even the county magistrate cannot use their skills.

Huang Xianwei had been able to control the county magistrate before. In addition to his backers, making good friends with these people was also the key.

This time, with Shopkeeper Wang accompanying him, Gu Erzhu saw the wide network of Shopkeeper Wang and immediately realized why his old son and the young couple asked him to come forward.

Compared with when I came to apply for the red deed two days ago, although there was Gu Lao's fourth brother-in-law as a yamen servant and Ma Dazhuang who took care of the house in advance, the treatment today is much better.

Before anyone could enter the main entrance of the Yamen, the Yamen servants rushed to bow to Shopkeeper Wang and say hello.

Entering the front hall, it was even more shocking. Huang County Lieutenant in the inner hall hurried out after hearing the news.

Immediately afterwards, the chief registrar and the county magistrate came out laughing and said that Mr. Wang never went to the Sanbao Hall for nothing. Why did he come here today and let the Yamen serve tea?

And he was lucky enough to enter the inner hall and have a cup of tea. From Mr. Gu to Brother Gu, the people who owned their own houses without even moving came to take away the household stickers and deeds, showing no sign of the previous impatience. look.

That's all.

The county magistrate came out and politely asked him to stay for a while. People in the room were chatting and laughing lively, and no one could tell who was in the same group as whom.

When Gu Erzhu was taken to the county government by Shopkeeper Wang to make connections, Ms. Liu here was also unsure, "Just now your father hinted that each shop was at least twenty taels (silver) low."

Although he escaped from socializing on the pretext of going to Wang's house, Gu Wenxuan still sent the little book boy who had been staying with him recently to go to Wang's house to report a message, and no one around him heard this.

Without waiting for his reply, Zhou Banxia said with a smile, "Yes, but I can guarantee that Uncle Wang did not subsidize me. It is probably the two sellers who owe Uncle Wang a favor.

He is different from others, we are not afraid if we owe a favor.

He was too polite, and he thought I was wary of him. We have a long time to come, so we can get along with each other slowly as relatives. "

"Is that so?" Mrs. Liu thought of the box of letters from before and the wooden box that was said to have been sent from the capital through the inn in Wang's house. "Okay, then treat him as your uncle and aunt when we are doing favors." Let’s go. That’s right, why did you listen to your Aunt Wang’s words and not even be with your daughter?”

One is married, and the younger one went to her aunt's house with her younger brother, and will probably be back for the New Year soon. Of the three sons, the eldest was originally studying at the Gaofu Clan School, and this year even the second son also went. "

"Both sons are studying there all of a sudden?"

"No, these two are lucky. Not to mention the older one, let's talk about the younger one. They just caught up with the old lady coming to Beijing, and the old lady was merciful."

The weather is very cold, and the snow on the road has been stepped on and turned into ice, making it easy to slip.

Seeing the two of them chatting, Gu Wenxuan was afraid that they might fall if they accidentally fell down, so he had to interrupt and remind them to stop chatting at home.

Mrs. Liu and Zhou Banxia tacitly turned around and glanced sideways at him. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law happily ignored him and deliberately turned their steps and entered the shop next door to Zhaojia Clothing Store in front. Gu Wenxuan was happy when he saw this, and wondered if this was a shop for buying something.

Pastry shop!

He doesn't even need to follow him, he doesn't need to count to ten, he will definitely come out immediately.

"Wait a minute, mother." Zhou Banxia quickly grabbed Ms. Liu, "I want to buy some to keep for our guests -"

"We have a lot at home." Ms. Liu tugged hard and pulled her old daughter-in-law back. She immediately walked out and reminded her softly after leaving the shop, "I'll go back to town and buy some for use."

"..." Zhou Banxia blinked at Gu Wenxuan: It seems that he made the wrong excuse. He should have said that he saw something he wanted to eat and wanted to buy it.

Gu Wenxuan almost burst into laughter: I'm just telling you, it would be weird if you could buy it!

Our mother has already made plans for whoever comes to the house next year and the beginning of the year, and what kind of entertainment they will give.

Stepping into Zhaojia Cloth Village, Zhou Banxia learned to be smart this time.

She never mentioned buying a cloak, but only asked which one would look good on her mother, and deliberately said what color her mother liked.

As expected, Gu Wenxuan soon found out the color he liked, the style he liked, and the amount he agreed with the price.

After coming out of the Zhaojia Buzhuang, Gu Wenxuan stopped going shopping slowly with his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and found a reason to go to the escort agency to go alone.

Mrs. Liu had no doubt that her old son was cheating on her, and she thought that she should stop following him a long time ago. The young man should not follow him around blindly.

I heard my old son mention going to the escort agency to have a look?

anxious.

Didn't I say before that I collected fifty taels of silver to team up with Daming? I just happened to go and see that Daming didn't come yesterday. I just asked someone to deliver a bag of overseas goods.

Gu Wenxuan didn't know that his mother had always remembered that he and his wife had pooled together fifty taels of silver to mix in a little bit of Yun Chengming's seafood business.

However, he did go to the escort agency, not to find out why Yun Chengming didn't come to his house yesterday, but to send money, and he sent another fifty taels.

Fortunately, he came today. Yesterday, this guy made people believe that the day after tomorrow was not too late. As soon as he arrived, he heard that this guy would lead the team to set off again tomorrow morning.

"I remembered the wrong date. I couldn't have gone out earlier, and this was the only trip I made a year ago. When I come back, we two brothers will have a good get-together."

The four words "get together well" were learned by this guy again.

"Study hard, brother, I'm waiting for you to win the first prize. That's right, how long has it been since you got married? Has your wife given birth to a baby? Don't mess around. You have to study calmly, okay?"

Death is not serious!

Gu Wenxuan kicked him angrily, causing a burst of laughter.

Not caring about joking with them anymore, Gu Wenxuan left the escort agency and brought a shopping list with him.

His mother was indeed right when she said that it was not cost-effective to buy ready-made clothes, so it was not that he was unfilial or disobedient to his mother. He bought the materials even though he already had them at home!

At Zhaojia Cloth Store, I bought enough fabrics and cotton for a new set of clothes for each of Uncle Cai's family, including Uncle Cai's family of five.

When he came out again, the things he bought had not been carried out by the clerk. Gu Wenxuan deliberately looked around the surrounding shops to avoid being caught by his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

Unexpectedly, he was caught by Zhao Laoer.
