Obtain the divine power at the beginning

Lu Yuan felt very embarrassed when he heard this.

Fortunately, he has a face like Guan Gong, so no one can tell whether he is blushing or not.

Lu Yuan sighed again and said, "Oh! Forget about that Mr. Dai. He asked Xiang Laixiang to mortgage his house to Bai Youlong to raise money for Mr. Xu to build a Thousand Years Temple. How dare we accept such money?
Xiang Laixiang is now homeless, and has moved to Dai's mansion with her whole family. Therefore, we would rather not take the money from the Salt Transport Bureau, and let Xiang Laixiang go home.

Dai Kun is so shameless and shameless, it really makes me embarrassed! "

~~
Shi Tianyu hurriedly spoke up for Dai Kun: "No way? This must be Bai Youlong talking nonsense. Bai Youlong should not have much money now. The little money he got from privately mining gold was confiscated by Gao Da, the Censorate last time.

Where did Bai Youlong get so much money? There must be discrepancies in the story. Mr. Dai is my mentor. He has always been kind-hearted, honest, and dedicated to the people. He is very good at dealing with people and has great abilities.

I will go to Dai’s house later to have a good talk with Lord Dai about this matter.

My Lords, don't be impatient. The truth will eventually come out."

~~
Coincidentally, Dai Kun came to Lu’s house to find Lu Yuan.

Because they were too familiar with each other and knew what kind of relationship Dai Kun and Lu Yuan had, no guards tried to stop Dai Kun.

The Lu family allowed Dai Kun to come and go as he pleased.

At this time, when Dai Kun was about to walk to Lu Yuan's huge study, he heard Shi Tianyu praising him like this. He was moved and thought that his son-in-law was still the dearest one!
At the critical moment, your son-in-law is still the best!

~~
So Dai Kun came quickly and said as soon as he entered the door: "Master Shi, what you said is very good. It is indeed because of that bastard Bai Youlong who is talking nonsense. I have always admired Wei Jiuqiansui, and Master Shi also knows that I have always been honest and upright and would never lie. How about this, let Master Shi investigate this matter."

~~
Lu Yuan and Xu Li were stunned.

The two looked at each other in great surprise.

I can't figure it out. Suddenly, Shi Tianyu actually supports Dai Kun, and Dai Kun actually supports Shi Tianyu. What's going on? Is there something wrong with my ears? Did I hear it wrong?
Haven’t Shi Tianyu and Dai Kun always been mortal enemies?
Oh my god! Is it because it rained heavily today?

Is it Shi Tianyu who is afraid of being struck by lightning, or is it Dai Kun who is worried about being struck by lightning?
~~
Seeing this, Dai Kun served tea and water to Lu Yuan and Xu Li.

Only then did Lu Yuan and Xu Li come to their senses.

Xu Li was afraid that he was not sober enough, so he shook his head again, took another sip of tea, and said to Shi Tianyu in a friendly manner: "Brother Shi, Lord Lu and I are eager to find you. We want to discuss with you the matter of raising money to build the Qiansui Temple. Can you lend me the money used to build the new city district of Fucheng so that we can build ten Qiansuiye golden statues together?"

Shi Tianyu smiled and said, "Master, the money for the construction of the new city of Fucheng has been allocated. Master Wang Chao can testify to this. However, I will think of a solution after I return to Fucheng. Then, I will send Wang Chao to Chengdu to report the situation to you. Now, Wang Chao is in the hall of the governor's mansion. If you don't believe me, you can send him to the study to find out."

I thought: Xu Li, you thief, you want to borrow money from a pig to get something from a tiger, no way!
If I don't get promoted, from now on I will never raise money for the Jinyiwei Office or the court.

Hehe! Building a Qiansui Temple is a waste of money and manpower.

I have stopped here. If you continue to spend money to build a Thousand Years Temple for this evil leader named Xu, you will be cursed.

I am an honest and good official and I cannot bear a bad reputation.

Even though you have Wei Yan's support, you will never be familiar with the ways of officialdom.

Hey! You want to play with me? Go home and ask your mom to feed you.

~~
Xu Li suddenly became dazed, his eyes were dim and lifeless, his heart felt like it was being stabbed by needles, and he was very sad.

If we can't raise money from Shi Tianyu, then where can we raise money to build ten Qiansui Temples at the same time?

If he built them one by one slowly, he would be letting down the big words he had said in front of Wei Zhongxian.

Oh! It’s so difficult!
~~
However, Lu Yuan's eyes lit up, as if he saw new hope, and he said excitedly: "Good! Good! Uncle just told Lord Xu that it was definitely right to ask your nephew Shi to come and discuss this matter. Among all the prefectures and states in Sichuan, you are the most supportive of Uncle. Uncle has never misjudged people!" His tone was particularly cordial to Shi Tianyu.

~~
Dai Kun cursed in his heart: Shi Tianyu is so cunning, no wonder my daughter Yi'er is so devoted to him that she is willing to bear a child for him before getting married.

Good boy, not bad! You can definitely become the Prime Minister of the Cabinet.

But you also have to support me!
At least you should let me be a governor, right?
I have now handed Yi'er over to you, and even my little grandson has been taken away by you.

Even Han Fenghuang is following you to raise your child, what else do you want?
~~
Shi Tianyu rolled his eyes, seized the opportunity, and said, "The two adults' business is my nephew's business. After returning to Fucheng, I will do my best. Oh, by the way, Jiangchuan County Magistrate Lü Chusheng was originally a Jinyiwei. Since he became the county magistrate, he has been diligent and caring for the people, and has a good reputation. The position of Tea and Horse Department Supervisor of Fucheng Prefecture is now vacant. I would like to recommend County Magistrate Lü for the position of Tea and Horse Department Supervisor. Please make your decision, adults."

He patted his chest and made a smooth guarantee, full of enthusiasm, and took the opportunity to give Lu Yuan another candy, recommending his beloved son Lu Chusheng for promotion.

Anyway, the officials may come and go, but the camp remains permanent.

Those positions in the Fucheng government office were not his ancestral business.

As long as it does not affect the implementation of new initiatives, do favors whenever possible.

~~
Xu Li perked up, came back to his senses, and said, "Good! Good!"

The little eyes instantly turned into a line when smiling.

Shi Tianyu took the opportunity to say goodbye and leave.

Dai Kun also took the opportunity to say goodbye and leave.

Not far from Lu's mansion, Dai Kun said to Shi Tianyu, "My dear son-in-law, it's getting dark. Are you going to take me and your mother-in-law back to your fairyland to play with my little grandson?" Shi Tianyu nodded.

The two walked side by side towards Dai's residence. Dai Kun said again: "My dear son-in-law, I know what you meant by proposing to promote Lu Chusheng just now. Lu Yuan also knows, but Xu Li doesn't understand."

~~
Shi Tianyu smiled and said, "My promotion is not due to Lv Yuan or Xu Li. However, it would be better if they proposed it. Father-in-law, don't worry, if your son-in-law is promoted, you will also be promoted. It is truly good for everyone to be good."

Hahahaha!

Dai Kun looked up to the sky and laughed proudly.

I felt very relaxed and understood the meaning of Shi Tianyu's words.

I also know Shi Tianyu's usual style.

Even the illiterate brothers Dai Yuguang and Dai Yutian who followed Shi Tianyu were quickly promoted. One became the magistrate of Pingting County, and the other became the chief of the Qiansui Temple Guard Camp. Both of them quickly became seventh-rank officials from commoners!

~~
The two returned to Dai Mansion.

Dai Kun asked Han Fenghuang to pack up the clothes and all the money, and then led Shi Tianyu to the huge cellar where the money was hidden, and asked Shi Tianyu to move the money away. Shi Tianyu looked at Dai Kun in astonishment.

This amount of money is only a few million taels of silver, but what does it mean to Shi Tianyu?

However, this was the most generous and magnanimous performance of Dai Kun in his life.

This doesn't look like Dai Kun!
What's up tonight?
Did Dai Kun also have a cell phone? Did he also secretly send someone to record the video?
Then, accuse me of corruption and bribery? Shi Tianyu was a little overwhelmed by Dai Kun's 360-degree turn. Because he knew Dai Kun too well. Now, how could Dai Kun be so kind as to hand over all his wealth to him?
~~
Dai Kun smiled and said, "My dear son-in-law, don't worry, I won't harm you. Although we fought to the death in the past. But, to be honest, you have always been relying on me.

It is nothing for me to teach you the art of archery, because with your martial arts, you don't need a blade or an arrow.

However, your initial rise was, after all, due to your status as my, Dai Kun’s apprentice. When you entered the Imperial College, the first status you could get was also under my, Dai Kun’s name.

Otherwise, how would you get along with Wei Guangwei, Xu Li and others? I have also heard about what happened to you in Kyoto.

Besides, if I hadn't supported you to be the county magistrate in Guxiang County, you wouldn't have achieved any political achievements. If I hadn't given you the position of prefect of Fucheng, you wouldn't have attracted the attention of Your Majesty and Wei Jiuqiansui.

It is impossible for His Majesty and Wei Jiuqian to visit Fucheng incognito. His Majesty and Wei Jiuqian will definitely promote you after returning to Kyoto.

After you get promoted, you have a lot of things to spend.

As for me, I didn't give birth to a son, but only a daughter. If you don't give my money to my daughter, will you keep it in my coffin? Take it away. Your mother-in-law and I just hope that we can see our little grandson often, and then we will be satisfied."

~~
Shi Tianyu was so moved that tears welled up in his eyes. Although he influenced Dai Kun through Dai Ruyi, he influenced Dai Kun after all.

So, Shi Tianyu raised his sleeves, wiped away the tears of emotion, raised his palm and flicked it, first drifting Dai Kun and his wife to the No. 4 locker in the system space. Then, he drifted Dai Kun's more than three million taels of gold, silver and jewelry to the big vault in the big garden of the system space.

Later, Shi Tianyu also walked into the locker No. 4 in the system space and saw Dai Kun and Han Fenghuang teasing Dai Lingyun, both of them were smiling. Even though Shi Tianyu came, Dai Kun and Han Fenghuang did not notice.

~~
Dai Ruyi noticed it, ran over with a smile, threw herself into Shi Tianyu's arms, and whispered shyly: "Husband, my blood has flowed clean. Haha! We can have a second baby. The second baby's surname will be Shi."

Hinting to Shi Tianyu, I can sleep with Shi Tianyu tonight.

Shi Tianyu kissed Dai Ruyi and said, "Family name is a person's code name, just a name. So, let's call each other Dai, as long as it's the person you and I created. I just hope your father can be a good person from now on. Look, he is so happy with Lingyun! This can be considered as a happy old age."

Dai Ruyi nodded sweetly.

Shi Tianyu then picked up Dai Ruyi, walked to the master bedroom, and took a bath and changed clothes together.

……

~~
on the ground.

Governor's Office.

After Shi Tianyu recommended Lu Chusheng for promotion, Lu Yuan felt relieved.

When people get old, the most important thing is to raise offspring.

If it weren't for Shi Tianyu, Lu Chusheng would not have become a county magistrate, and Lu Chusheng would not have been promoted to the position of Tea and Horse Supervisor in Fucheng.

Not bad! Shi Tianyu is really good!
Fortunately, I let go of the hatred for Wang Cai's death long ago. I am much smarter than Dai Kun, who may have just realized it today, so he spoke well of Shi Tianyu in front of me and the old thief Xu Li.

~~
So, Lu Yuan decided to repay Shi Tianyu.

The crescent moon appears late at night, and the stars scatter tiredly.

Lu Yuan stood up and poured tea for Xu Li, and then said to Xu Li: "Master Xu, Master Shi has a strong ability to raise grain and funds, but he is only a prefect after all, and the area of ​​Fucheng is limited after all, so the scope of raising grain and funds is limited.

Since Ma Zhifu and Gao Yingqiang always play against me, among all the prefectures and counties in Sichuan, only Shi Tianyu is the most supportive of me. Shi Tianyu is also the youngest, most prestigious and the best in governing the prefectures and counties.

What's more, Shi Tianyu is now a second-rank official.

Therefore, I want to recommend Shi Tianyu to be promoted to the post of Ansi or Busi, so that Ma Zhifu and Gao Yingqiang can retire and return home. If Shi Tianyu can become the governor of Sichuan, then the scope of his grain and fund raising will not only be Fucheng, and the tax silver paid to the court in a year may far exceed the court's tax silver income by several times.

His role far exceeds that of the Minister of Revenue.

By then, Lord Xu will be able to do anything for the Ninth Prince if he needs money.

Think about it, Shi Tianyu and Dai Kun have reconciled now. What kind of signal is this?

Besides, Shi Tianyu and you have a teacher-student relationship.

What do you think of my suggestion, Lord Xu?"

~~
Xu Li's heart was pounding, and he said readily, "Okay! Lord Lu stands high and has a far view. Later, when we return to the posthouse, I will write a personnel document for the Ninth Prince and ask Lord Lu to sign and seal it."

Lu Yuan smiled and said, "Lord Xu, this is my study! Aren't there the four treasures of the study?" Xu Li laughed, then came to the desk, picked up the pen and dipped it in ink, and drafted the official document recommending Shi Tianyu for promotion to the governor of Sichuan.

At the same time, he wrote another official document, reporting the bad behavior of Ma Zhifu and Gao Yingqiang in opposing the construction of the Qiansui Temple in Sichuan, and suggested that the Nine Thousand Years Old and the six ministries of the court propose to the Emperor to dismiss Ma Zhifu and Gao Yingqiang from their posts.

Lu Yuan signed immediately, added comments and stamped the governor's seal, and ordered An Ziwu to arrange personnel overnight to submit the two documents to the Minister of Personnel Zhou Yingqiu by an express delivery of 800 miles.

He knew what Zhou Yingqiu would do next.

It was nothing more than Zhou Yingqiu going to find Wei Zhongxian, and Wei Zhongxian going to find Zhu Youxiao.

The methods and approaches are very simple, it just depends on whether Wei Zhongxian works hard enough.

~~
As spring turns to summer, the weather is getting hotter.

Shi Tianyu returned to Fucheng, went to the court, and carefully reviewed the official documents.

At this time, Liu Laifu came to report that a man named Yang Song was outside the court asking to see him. Shi Tianyu handed the reviewed documents to Liu Laifu for processing, and then walked out of the court, seeing the dejected Yang Song and his daughter Yang Miaoyun.

~~
Yang Miaoyun's belly was already slightly bulging.

When the father and daughter saw Shi Tianyu walking out of the court in high spirits, their faces flushed, they felt very embarrassed and awkward. This time, they were really desperate. They really came to ask Shi Tianyu for help, and they really came to seek refuge with Shi Tianyu.

Shi Tianyu smiled and said, "Let's go home."

After saying that, he turned his back and left. Yang Song and Yang Miaoyun lowered their heads and followed Shi Tianyu towards the Shi Mansion.

Back in the hall of the Shi Mansion, Yang Song and Yang Miaoyun were like elementary school students who had made a mistake. They lowered their heads, not daring to say a word or sit down.

An Yinqi and his wife came over to serve tea and water.

~~
Shi Tianyu smiled and said to Yang Song: "Valley Master Yang, are you planning to disrupt the Qiansui Temple again when you come to Fucheng this time? Are you planning to assassinate me again? Oh, by the way, have you seen the ice sculptures on the street of the Fucheng branch of the Heheng Chain Bank? The bodies of Xie Zhichuan and more than 600 martial artists were frozen there by me, and they have become a cash cow for the people of Fucheng. You two didn't expect that after their death, Xie Zhichuan and others would make such a huge contribution to the people of Fucheng, right?"

Although he spoke with a smile, he gave Yang Song a severe lesson.

I also know that Yang Song would definitely not dare to say anything.

Because Yang Song no longer had any soldiers, no territory, and no money or food.

Of course, there is no problem in stealing and robbing to get a meal, but in the end, it will definitely lead to the tragic death of his daughter Yang Miaoyun.

I believe Yang Song also had such thoughts.

However, Yang Song was not the kind of person who would eat his own cubs even if he was a tiger. It was impossible for him to watch his daughter die tragically because of him.

~~
Sure enough, Yang Song's face turned red and he was speechless.

Yang Song and Yang Miaoyun had indeed seen those ice sculptures.

Therefore, Yang Song no longer even has the courage to rise again in the martial arts world.

There are many new people in the martial arts world, and there is always someone better than you. Piaomiao Valley is not adapted to the martial arts world of the Middle-earth!
You are already old, what else do you want?

Isn't it good for my daughter to marry Shi Tianyu? She will have endless money to spend, and she will be the wife of an official, with a high status. Her grandchildren will surely be rich and prosperous in the future, so that she can be well cared for and happy in her old age. Isn't that good?
What's more, my daughter's belly is getting bigger now.

~~
Yang Miaoyun's face turned red with shame. She hurried forward and threw herself into Shi Tianyu's arms, saying coquettishly, "Husband, it's okay. I've been scolded by you for so long, I can endure it. Take me home, okay? My dad and I can live with Li Gongchun. Li Gongchun and I have similar interests, so it's good to have a companion. Look at my belly." After that, she moved away, took Shi Tianyu's hand, and pressed it on her belly.

Shi Tianyu laughed, picked up Yang Miaoyun, and said to Yang Song, "Valley Master Yang, let's go!"

Deliberately not calling Yang Song father-in-law. Yang Song was ashamed, angry, furious and helpless, and was about to follow Shi Tianyu into the system space.

Just at this time, Xie Wen, Helan Minyue, Li Gongchun, Master Xuwang, Qin Zhiguang and others came back.

Seeing Shi Tianyu holding Yang Miaoyun, whose belly was slightly bulging, Li Gongchun raised his whisk and pointed at Shi Tianyu, ready to scold him. However, Shi Tianyu glared at Li Gongchun and said first, "Li Gongchun, bastard, if you dare to be rude to me again, get out!"

Li Gongchun was so frightened that he quickly put down his whisk.

Giving up Shi Tianyu is equivalent to giving up his son Shi Ruihe, and giving up wealth and glory. This is not worth it.

~~
Shi Tianyu smiled and said, "Li Gongchun, if you are obedient, I will give you the Night Jade Lion BMW."

Li Gongchun was also jealous of Helan Minyue for having a "Jueying" BMW, but when she heard this, she said in surprise: "Really? Really? Haha, that's great! Thank you, husband." After that, she walked forward, hugged Shi Tianyu, and kissed him.

~~
Xie Wen, Master Fengye, Master Xuwang and Qin Zhiguang turned around hastily and covered their mouths with their hands, for fear of laughing out loud.

Shi Tianyu said, "Let's go back to the fairyland to drink good wine. Each of you grab one's clothes and follow me closely, taking the BMW and the dog with you." Everyone hurriedly did as he said, and followed Shi Tianyu back to the "fairyland", and came to locker number seven together.

Shi Tianyu put Yang Miaoyun down, then hugged Helan Minyue and walked out of the hall, whispering: "Did you have a conflict with the Jinyiwei along the way?" Helan Minyue nodded and said: "Not only did we have a conflict, but we also had a fight. More than 30 people were killed, but one person escaped."

~~
Shi Tianyu said, "I understand. That's why Jinyiwei Commander Wei Xueyan came to me to testify that you are the chief leader of Tiandihui and the leader of Mingjiao. You should put away the Holy Fire Token and the ring and hide them. Otherwise, we will be in trouble. Anyway, the disciples of the branches of Tiandihui and some branches of Mingjiao already know that you have the ring and the Holy Fire Token. You don't need to carry them with you all the time to avoid being criticized."

Helan Minyue nodded, took off the ring and the Holy Fire Token, and handed them to Shi Tianyu. Shi Tianyu took them and threw them into the study of the No. 2 locker. He also pulled out a few jars of good wine and said to Qin Zhiguang and Master Xuwang: "Have a drink with that old poisonous guy Yang Song. He has no soldiers, no territory, no money and food, and is in a low mood. Give him some advice and he will follow you in the future. As for good tea, Li Gongchun has it here. As for good dishes, let the maids cook them. In a few days, let's go to the East China Sea to see the water dragons training the navy, how about that?"

"it is good!"

Everyone immediately cheered and jumped.

~~
Qin Zhiguang, Master Xuwang, and Xie Wen each picked up two jars of good wine and went to the hall to drink with Yang Song. These people liked to drink the good wine that Shi Tianyu brought from Cui Chengxiu's house the most. Li Gongchun and Yang Miaoyun were playing around.

Shi Tianyu then hugged Helan Minyue and flew to locker No. 18, and then moved Zhang Hui over from locker No. 3. The three of them hadn't seen each other for many days, so they became intimate, bathed and changed clothes together, and rolled into bed together to indulge in happiness.

~~
Early the next morning.

Shi Tianyu led Zhang Hui, Helan Minyue, "Dudu", "Shiyu" and "Yayun", as well as "Jueying" BMW and "Zhua Huang Feidian", back to Fucheng, back to Fucheng Shi Mansion.

Zhuo Shicai and Yan Linshi came to pay a visit, saying that it’s about time for mining to begin, right?
Shi Tianyu smiled and said, "Have you prepared the money for the gift?"

Zhuo Shicai and Yan Linshi nodded, knowing that they would give gifts to the mine supervisors and had already prepared several bags of gold bricks.

~~
Shi Tianyu led Zhuo Shicai and Yan Linshi to Anzi County to find the mine supervisors, but they did not go directly. Instead, they first inspected the construction of the new urban area of ​​Fucheng and the safety of the Qiansui Temple.

Then, they took several horse-drawn carriages and arrived at a rural area outside Fucheng.

Zhang Hui and Helan Minyue rode horses. They had BMWs! It was new. They rode in front. Everyone got off their horses and walked from time to time. Sweat was dripping down their faces, but they were very happy when they saw the green rice seedlings in the fields and the sound of water in the canals.

~~
Shi Tianyu just wants to see a situation of good public security, harmony, and good harvests from the hard work of all people.

Just after walking around the fields, Peng Jinshi rode over, dismounted quickly, and bowed to Shi Tianyu to report: "Sir, something bad has happened. I just received a notice from the higher-ups that the laws of the Ming Dynasty have been revised, and there are detailed new regulations that will restrict the development of industry and commerce."

"What? What what?"

Everyone asked in astonishment, all of them were stunned.

Shi Tianyu thought to himself: Could this be the result of His Majesty's secret visit to Fucheng and other places?

Without the development of industry and commerce, and only farming, how can the court's tax revenue be increased? Today, the royal family's expenses account for one-tenth of the court's tax revenue, and the military's expenses account for 60% to 70% of the court's expenses.

After deducting the salaries of officials, the imperial treasury would have no balance.

If this continues, will this court still be useful?

Isn't it rotten yet?
It seems that if I am not in power, the Ming Dynasty will be hopeless.

The Ming Dynasty Code also had provisions to restrict the development of industry and commerce, but they were not so detailed. However, now that it has been revised and the development of industry and commerce has been re-restricted, it will definitely be more detailed and have more specific clauses.

~~
Everyone stared at Shi Tianyu in a daze again.

Zhuo Shicai and Yan Linshi were like eggplants hit by frost, looking dejected.

I was just thinking about going mining!

Now, the Ming Dynasty laws have been revised in this way, so it may be difficult to mine.

~~
Shi Tianyu said: "Without the development of industry and commerce, the court can't even collect taxes. I don't know which pig brain came up with this idea. Forget about it for now, we should do what we should do! If the higher-ups ask us to clean up industry and commerce, we will delay it. When we can't delay any longer, we will think of a way."

But after hearing this, Zhuo Shicai and Yan Linshi smiled with relief. Regardless of the final result, at least, Shi Tianyu could delay the revision of the new Ming Dynasty laws for a year or two, and they could make a fortune just by mining.

After a year or so, who cares about the laws anymore!
~~
Shi Tianyu added: "Let's go back to Fucheng first and see the reactions of the Yin merchants from Jiangnan."

Everyone nodded, left the field, got into the carriage or jumped on their horses, and rode back to the city.

After Shi Tianyu returned to the city, he rushed to various handicraft workshops without stopping, and asked some wealthy merchants and shopkeepers with concern, seeking their opinions on the new Ming Dynasty laws and regulations. He also asked Zhang Hui and Helan Minyue to take out their mobile phones to record videos and take photos.

These wealthy businessmen and shopkeepers all cursed the pig-brained people who proposed to revise the laws of the Ming Dynasty.

Shi Tianyu appeased these wealthy merchants and shopkeepers one by one, repeating the same words: without the development of industry and commerce, the court would not be able to collect taxes. Forget about that for now, let's do what we should do!

If the higher-ups ask us to clean up industry and commerce, we will drag it out. When we can no longer drag it out, we will find another way. Please stay in Fucheng and develop your handicraft industry. I will continue to exempt you from taxes for three years, and the government will continue to advance the funds to pay your site rental fees.

As a result, all the wealthy merchants and shopkeepers were very happy and thanked Shi Tianyu very much.

~~
However, out of consideration for the interests of the businessman himself, Zhuo Shicai proposed to slow down the mining and asked Shi Tianyu to promote the two young men, Zhuo Yue and Yan Jin, first.

Shi Tianyu readily agreed and said that Jiangchuan County Magistrate Lu Chusheng would definitely be promoted to the position of Tea and Horse Administration Supervisor. In this way, there would be a vacancy in Jiangchuan County, so Zhuo Yue would be appointed as the Chief Clerk of Jiangchuan County, and Yan Jin would be appointed as the Co-Director of the Government Yamen.

"Thank you, Lord Shi!" Zhuo Shicai and Yan Linshi were both very happy.

Shi Tianyu ordered Zhuo Shicai and Yan Linshi to go to the construction site of the new city district of Fucheng immediately to direct and supervise the construction, dispatch the laborers, and speed up the construction of the new city district. He said that when he returned to the government office, he would immediately summon Wang Chao and Liu Cong to discuss the matter, and would immediately send someone to the Governor's Office to submit personnel appointment and dismissal documents.

Zhuo Shicai and Yan Linshi left happily.

~~
Shi Tianyu returned to the government office and pretended to respect Wang Chao and Liu Cong on the surface, and discussed the promotion and appointment of Zhuo Yue and Yan Jing.

Wang Chao thought that his brother Xu Li was in Chengdu, and he could ride to Chengdu at any time to communicate with Xu Li and report Shi Tianyu. Therefore, he took a tough attitude and firmly opposed Shi Tianyu's promotion of Zhuo Yue and Yan Jing.

Liu Cong firmly supports Shi Tianyu's promotion of excellence and rigor.

So, Shi Tianyu smiled and said, "Two to one, passed. Sir Liu, immediately organize Xu Huan and others to draft an official document and submit it to the Governor's Office and the Ministry of Personnel, the Ministry of Justice, and the Ministry of Revenue."

"Yes!" Liu Cong responded loudly and left.

Anyway, they had already torn apart relations with the dynasty a long time ago, so they were not afraid of the dynasty.

Wang Chao was so angry that he was shaking all over. He immediately said with a dark face that he wanted to go to Chengdu.

~~
Shi Tianyu smiled and said, "Go ahead and find your father Xu Li to report me. From now on, Liu Cong, the judge of the government office, will be in charge of the daily affairs. Wang Chao will be suspended from his post and is not allowed to inquire about any matters of the government office.

Wang Chao's residence was taken back. It was originally occupied by Dai Kun. Because it was old, it was demolished and rebuilt. Wang Chao's family was driven out and his belongings were thrown out. If the amount of property was too large, it would be confiscated immediately.

Arrest his three family members and bring them to court for trial immediately to accuse Wang Chao of corruption and bribery after arriving in Fucheng." He then waved to Jiang Xiao to come over and ordered him to convey this order immediately and organize 300 detectives to take immediate action.

"Yes!" Jiang Xiao bowed and left.

Wang Chao was so frightened that his legs went limp. He knelt down in front of Shi Tianyu and cried tremblingly, "Master Shi, spare my life! Master Shi, please let me go. Master Shi, I will never dare to do it again."

Shi Tianyu kicked Wang Chao over and cursed, "If I don't beat you, you won't know that I am both civil and military. Humph!"

Wang Chao was kicked in the stomach, and his abdomen was in excruciating pain. He vomited blood and screamed in pain.

I really regret it!
~~
Shi Tianyu cursed, "Wang Chao, you are so ignorant. You are just a small Tongzhi, what a shit. I am still a second-rank official, the Dragon Court General. How many times have I spared you? You are so shameless. Do you really think you are the Nine Thousand Years Old?

Bah! In Fucheng, I am the only one who has the final say.

Come, break Wang Chao's legs and see if he can run to Chengdu again. If he talks nonsense, cut off his tongue."

His smile is so charming that it can make countless beautiful girls fall in love with him.

However, when he gets cruel, even ghosts are afraid of him.

~~
Chen Biao was very angry when he saw that Zhuo Yue, Dai Yuguang, Dai Yutian, Yan Jin, Ma Dehui, Shan Wushuang and others were all promoted. In order to please Shi Tianyu, he immediately grabbed a stick from a yamen runner and hit Wang Chao's legs with it.

~~
Click!

Wang Chao let out a wail, his legs broke instantly, he screamed in agony, his body turned pale with pain, he was sweating profusely and trembling all over.

In the government office, except for Wang Chao, all the people were promoted by Shi Tianyu. Seeing this, everyone secretly cheered and clapped their hands. Shi Tianyu shouted again: "Pan Dong, call the doctor to treat Wang Chao's injury. Tell the public that Wang Chao accidentally broke his leg while inspecting the fields in the countryside."

"Yes!" Pan Dong bowed and left.

~~
Shi Tianyu added, "Chen Biao, go to Wang Chao's mansion immediately to supervise and confiscate Wang Chao's family property. As for the mansion, do not demolish or rebuild it for the time being. Just keep it as it is. Arrest his three family members and bring them to court for trial. Then hand over the evidence of Wang Chao's crimes to me for sealing. You will have made an invaluable contribution to handling this case well."

"Yes!" Chen Biao responded loudly and excitedly.

I know in my heart that I will be promoted soon.

~~
Shi Tianyu then turned away and went back to the inner hall to sit down.

Zhang Hui and Helan Minyue hurried to wait on the side and brew some good Longjing tea for Shi Tianyu.

Even ghosts are afraid of Shi Tianyu when he gets ruthless, let alone Wang Chao, who is just a small official in the prefecture.

In the past, face was given to Wang Chao because Fucheng was not yet famous throughout the world and also because of the friendship between teachers and students.

However, compared to Gu Xiang back then, Fucheng is now more famous. Even the emperor, empress and Wei Zhongxian have come to Fucheng for a private visit. What is Shi Tianyu afraid of?

At worst, he would be demoted to a commoner, and just be the richest man in the world for a long time. Wouldn't he still live a rich life with many wives and concubines, many children and grandchildren, and endless money, which is almost the same as being an emperor?

~~
Wang Chao wailed loudly, tears streaming down his face, but he didn't dare to curse Shi Tianyu again.

After a while, the doctor came and treated Wang Chao's bone injury.

Wang Chao wailed in pain like a pig being slaughtered.

~~
Chen Biao was the chief judge and announced that the case would be heard in court. He ordered people to bring in tiger benches and clamps. Before Wang Chao's three family members were beaten, they confessed everything, telling how Wang Chao had embezzled 470,000 taels of silver in bribes after he took office in Fucheng. They immediately signed and sealed the confession. Chen Biao asked Wang Chao to sign and seal the confession again, and then took five copies to the inner hall and handed them to Shi Tianyu.

After Shi Tianyu carefully read the confessions of Wang Chao and his family, he put the four confessions in a briefcase and threw them into the study of the No. 2 locker in the system space. He kept one confession and hid it in his pocket.

Then, Shi Tianyu returned to the court and asked Pan Dong to lead people to carry Wang Chao and his family back to the mansion. He also ordered Liu Cong and Xu Huan to immediately draft an official document to promote Chen Biao and Jiang Xiao to the post of governor of the Tea and Horse Department to supervise the future tea and horse tax revenue of the Tea and Horse Department, and at the same time promote them to the rank of the eighth rank. Chen Biao and Jiang Xiao were both overjoyed and excited.

It takes a hundred days to heal a broken bone, and Wang Chao will not be able to go to the government court for at least half a year.

~~
Then, Shi Tianyu ordered Liu Cong to withdraw 50,000 taels of silver from the government treasury to give bonuses to 300 constables and soldiers in Qiansui Temple, giving each of them 100 taels of silver. He also said that if the government officials had difficulties in life, how could they still do their work with peace of mind?

I want to make not only the people of the whole city rich, but also the government servants rich.

Under my administration, no official can be in financial difficulty. They must be able to afford a big house, hire maids and servants, and own a two-horse carriage. This way, it will be more convenient for them to do their work and their efficiency will be higher.

~~
Suddenly, there was thunderous applause in the government court, and everyone cheered.

The two thousand soldiers, three hundred constables, and government runners were all extremely excited, with tears in their eyes. They all admired Shi Tianyu infinitely and prayed silently to God in their hearts to let Shi Tianyu get promoted as soon as possible.

Then, Shi Tianyu asked Helan Minyue to lead some constables, and dragged out Qin Zhiguang, Master Xuwang, Xie Wen, and Master Fengye to escort Liu Cong to carry 200,000 taels of silver to inspect the counties, and give a bonus of 5,000 taels of silver to each county magistrate, and a bonus of 100 taels of silver to other errand personnel and Qiansui Temple soldiers. Liu Cong could decide what to do with the remaining silver.

~~
After handling these matters, Shi Tianyu led more than 200 police officers to the construction site of the new urban area and asked the common people at random whether they had received subsidies. People's livelihood issues were what Shi Tianyu was most concerned about.

If we randomly ask 600,000 ordinary people, they all say they can receive subsidies.

Moreover, the tenants from Yao Luyang all received a generous treatment of having their land rent reduced by half.

However, the two wealthy owners, Zhuo Shicai and Yan Linshi, did not reduce the land rent.

~~
Shi Tianyu asked Chen Biao and Pan Dong to go find Zhuo Shicai and Yan Linshi immediately and ask them to gather the tenants of their two families and publicly announce a six-month rent reduction.

Otherwise, excellence and rigor will not only result in no promotion, but will also lead to imprisonment.

He also took out a confession from Wang Chao's family and showed it to Zhuo Shicai and Yan Linshi.

Zhuo Shicai and Yan Linshi were so frightened that they broke out in cold sweats, their legs went weak, and they could not stand steadily. They quickly did as they were told.

Wang Chao was beaten, this is terrible, how can Zhuo Shicai and Yan Linshi dare to resist? Just do as I say.

Suddenly, hundreds of thousands of people cheered and knelt down to thank Mr. Shi and the honest official Shi Tianyu.

The scene is very touching.

Zhang Hui quickly took out her cell phone to take photos and videos.

~~
Wei Xueyan, He Xiangu and Ju Ping, who had disguised themselves and blended into the crowd, all stared at Shi Tianyu in amazement when they saw this.

After a while, He Xiangu came back to her senses and whispered to Wei Xueyan, "Princess, look at this scene. Even if Helan Minyue is really the chief leader of the Tiandihui and the leader of the Mingjiao, we can't catch her! What's more, we can't get any evidence against her."

Ju Ping said, "Princess, just now in the court, Shi Tianyu broke Wang Chao's legs and confiscated a total of 470,000 taels of silver that Wang Chao had embezzled and accepted bribes. Wang Chao has worked for nothing since he came to Fucheng."

Wei Xueyan answered the question irrelevantly: "People's hearts are like water. Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it. Shi Tianyu is right. The Donglin outspoken people suggested to revise the laws of the Ming Dynasty this time, and they want to destroy the Ming Dynasty. It is estimated that if Shi Tianyu insists on carrying out the new laws of the Ming Dynasty, it will also cause new troubles, which will affect his official career. Oh!" After that, she sighed again, turned and left.

He Xiangu caught up with Wei Xueyan and said, "Princess, where are we going now?"

Wei Xueyan smiled and said, "Go to the government office and wait for Shi Tianyu. Didn't he confiscate Wang Chao's property? We need to make Shi Tianyu pay some tribute to the Jinyiwei Office! Otherwise, how can the Jinyiwei Office still operate?"

He Xiangu and Juping laughed and followed Wei Xueyan.
