A thousand-year-old family that began with the Battle of Makino

Chapter 285: Guard Team Leader, Good Retribution
Li's control over Zaoqiang was undeniable, but he could not completely control every aspect.

Most people were forced by Li's power and had to bow their heads and show their loyalty to Li.

Wei Tie, the yamen servant in the county government office and the leader of the left squad, is such a person. Wei Tie, known as Lao Tietou, is an old man in Zaoqiang County government office. He is now over 50 years old and has experienced turmoil in three families. He has also experienced the transition between Han and Xin Dynasties, and can be regarded as one of the top celebrities in Zaoqiang.

Since he has worked in the county government for most of his life, Wei Tie has a wide network of contacts in the county government and the county town. There are many petty officials who can be said to have been taught by Wei Tie.

As for why the Li family kept Wei Tie, it was because of technology. Wei Tie's skills in tracking and catching thieves prevented the thieves in Zaoqiang from doing anything rash and maintained order in Zaoqiang very well. It can be said that without Wei Tie Tie, there must be at least twice as many thieves in Zaoqiang.

"Hey, Old Tietou, you're here so early again." A government servant in his thirties, with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, and eyes like hungry wolves walked into the county government's duty room.

"Look what you said, old man, as the leader of the squad, I come here on time every day to make money. Isn't this to live up to the salary given by the court? If I just take money and do nothing, old man, I will feel uncomfortable."

Wei Tie replied jokingly.

The person who spoke to Wei Tie was Zheng Zhi, the right shift leader of the county government. He was of the same status as Wei Tie, but because of his seniority and strength, Wei Tie was slightly taller than Zheng Zhi by half a head.

Zheng Zhi was originally an ordinary yamen servant in the county government. He was very unpopular in the county government because of his aggressive and ruthless tactics. Originally, he had no chance to sit on the job.

However, when the Li family wanted to capture the key criminals Liu and Zhang, Wei Tie and the right squad leader at the time were unwilling to do such indiscriminate killing of innocent people, while Zheng Zhi fell in love with the Li family and became Li's pawn. .

He wholeheartedly helped Mr. Li to do evil, and finally, with Mr. Li's support, he took the position of leader of the right shift. If Wei Tie was not really powerful and needed him to maintain order, Mr. Li even wanted to take over the entire Zaoqiang County government office. They were all handed over to Zheng Zhi for management.

Because Zaoqiang is a large county, with nearly 100,000 residents in the county, and nearly 20,000 to 30,000 people are in the county all year round. Therefore, in order to maintain order in the county, the county government maintains a team of more than 100 government officials all year round. The commander is also a medium-sized force in Zaoqiang.

"Old Tietou, listen to my advice and submit your surrender to the young master as soon as possible. You don't have to live in such a tight life. After all, this Zaoqiang's surname is Li. For those untouchables, offending the Li family will do you no good.

Follow the young master and enjoy the spicy food. I heard that your lady has been ill recently. I have dozens of pennies here. If you need it urgently, take it. It might as well be our friendship as colleagues. "

Zheng Zhi kept persuading Wei Tie to join the Li family and be used by the Li family. After all, what is most valuable in the world is talent. Wei Tie is such a talent, and Chef Zhang is also such a talent.

In fact, Zheng Zhi didn't like Wei Tie in his heart. He had this kind of craftsmanship in his hand. He had already exchanged it for glory and wealth. Why would he still be squatting in this small county government?

This Wei Tie is also worthy of the title of Iron Head. His mind is full of mud. He actually deals with the people of the Li family every day for those untouchables. If Li Yong hadn't stopped those people at home who wanted to retaliate against him, Wei Tie would have entered the country long ago. Out of jail.

Seeing Wei Tie just sullen and silent, Zheng Zhi knew that it was useless to talk anymore, and snorted coldly: "That's all, old Tietou, just take care of yourself. Don't do whatever you want just because of the respect of the young master, otherwise sooner or later you will endanger your family." Bringing trouble.”

After saying that, he didn’t care that he had not ordered his mao yet and walked straight away.

The entire county government officials, except for Wei Tie and some of the officials who performed their duties, the rest of the officials headed by Zheng Zhi left everything to Wei Tie and his team in order to receive a salary.

As for what Zheng Zhi said before, it was nothing more than the fact that when Wei Tie was patrolling the streets, he saw the Li family's children eating Overlord's meal, bullying a stall owner, and punching and kicking the stall owner.

After Wei Tie saw it, he stepped forward decisively and took these Li family members into prison as a government servant, although he was released on the same day.

Naturally, the stall owner was not compensated. Wei Tie and several of his apprentices saw how pitiful he was and collected some copper coins so that he could continue to live.

"Team leader, are you okay?" A government servant on the side looked at Wei Tie worriedly.

"It's okay, what's the matter? I, Wei Tie, do things worthy of the heaven, the earth, and people. When we see injustice, we naturally have to take care of it. If we don't care, is it worthy of the clothes we are wearing?

In this matter, even if the emperor comes, this is the same principle. Wherever I go, I will be confident. "

Wei Tie said openly to his worried men.

When midnight was over, Wei Tie led the people on time to patrol the streets in batches.

After a day's work, Wei Tie returned home. As soon as he entered the door, he smelled the strong smell of herbs. Wei Tie felt nervous and walked quickly into the house.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw his son Wei Min lying on the couch. Next to him, his wife was holding a bowl and feeding him medicine.

"Wan Niang, what's going on?" Wei Tiemu asked angrily at the door.

Wanniang is Wei Tie's wife, known as Wei Liu's family, and is a distant relative of Liu's family.

"What's going on? I'm not going to ask you. Damn it, Li He. In order to retaliate against you, you took them to jail. When Min'er was going out, you gathered a group of idle men and blocked Min'er in the alley and beat him.

Even though Min'er had some strength, his two fists were no match for his four-handed opponent, so he was still knocked down by them. They fought for half an hour. If the neighbors hadn't found out earlier, Min'er would have died long ago.

When he was brought back, he was covered in blood. Fortunately, Mr. Ding came quickly after hearing about it, otherwise Min'er would have been in danger. I told you a long time ago to quit this job, or else don't mess with Mrs. Li. You just don't listen. Now Min'er has become like this. Are you satisfied? "Ms. Wei Liu said while giving medicine to Wei Min with tears in her eyes.

Wei Tie was speechless. He was relieved when he heard that Wei Min was fine. Seeing that there was no place for him to help, he left the room and sat on the doorstep, motionless.

When Wei Liu came out after giving Wei Min the medicine, Wei Tie stood up and asked, "How is Min'er doing?"

Wei Liu's mood had calmed down at this time, but she still said with red eyes: "After I fell asleep, Li He was really cruel. When he was brought back, Min'er kept shouting in pain. Damn it, Li, why didn't you A thunder struck them dead.”

Wei Tie listened to Wei Liu's words and did not answer, but kept clenching his fists in his sleeves. Then he left the house without looking back.

"where are you going?"

"I'll go and thank Mr. Ding in person."

"and many more!"

Mrs. Wei Liu went to the kitchen and took out a few eggs, wrapped them in cloth and handed them to Wei Tie. She also took out more than ten pennies from her body and handed them to Wei Tie: "Go and cut some more meat. Mr. Ding will give it to Wei Tie." Well, I have to repay it.”

Wei Tie nodded while holding the eggs and copper coins, turned around and left without saying another word.

Mrs. Wei Liu walked to the door and saw Wei Tie walking away, so she wiped her tears, closed the door and walked into the house. She wanted to take care of her son in front of the couch.

In the south of the city, Ding's Medical Center.

It turns out that the doctors are all traveling doctors and do not have a specific location to treat patients. At most, they just rent a shop and only treat patients but do not prescribe medicine. To get medicine, go to a specialized drug store.

But sometimes the illness is urgent and there is no time to go to the pharmacy to get medicine, causing many unnecessary casualties. Some doctors treat the right disease, but the medicine in the pharmacy is not good, which can easily lead to doctor-patient conflicts.

Later, the medical sage Bian Hong learned the methods of gold needles, medicinal stones, and dietary therapy from Bai Guo. He could not only take medicines but also see doctors. So he also learned Bai Guo's methods and opened a medical clinic in Yanmen. He not only treated patients but was also responsible for Take medicine.

Many doctors watched Bian Hong do this and also learned to do it.

This is how many medical families thrive, and the Ding family is one of the best medical families in Zaoqiang County. The family has been practicing medicine for generations, and many in the family are skilled in medicine.

Most of the medicinal materials and medical diagnosis in Zaoqiang County are in Ding's Medical Center. In the south of the city, Ding's Medical Center is the most famous, in order to allow the people to better receive medical treatment and medicine.

The Ding family has opened many medical shops in Zaoqiang. They are all opened by some members of the Ding family. They are backed by the Ding family medical center. They can treat some minor illnesses without any problems. If they encounter difficult and complicated diseases, the medical shops will recommend people to the doctor. pavilion.

And the Ding family has become a wealthy family in Zaoqiang because of the medical shops and medicine shops all over the city. Even the Li family dares to offend them completely, because no one knows when they will get sick, and Ding family will be needed to save their lives.

If you offend him, then you will have to wait for death.

The Mr. Ding that Wei Liu was talking about was the person in charge of the medical shop located on Wei Tie's street. He was also a member of the Ding family. His medical skills were very good, but he didn't like the noisy environment of the medical shop, so he chose to work in this small medical shop. Sitting for a consultation.

I heard from others that Mr. Ding is the elder of the current clan leader of the Ding clan and is considered highly respected in the entire Ding clan.

Wei Tie entered the doctor's shop carrying a piece of meat in his left hand and several eggs wrapped in cloth in his right hand. At this time, no one was treating the doctor in the doctor's shop. Mr. Ding was leaning on the table and reading bamboo slips.

"Mr. Ding!" Wei Tie saluted respectfully.

Ding Ran heard the sound and saw that it was Wei Tie: "Oh, it's the guard team leader here. Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere? Sit down quickly!"

"Wei Tie came here this time to thank you for saving your son's life. Wei Tie has nothing to repay. Here is some food prepared by my wife. Please don't refuse, to express my husband's gratitude to you."

Ding Ran did not refuse Wei Tie's gift of thanks: "Doctor, it is my duty to remove diseases and save your family and protect the people. There is no need to do this. You have to thank you. You should also thank your neighbors. If they hadn't run away Hurry up and call me in time, I'm afraid your boy really has nothing to do."

"My neighbor Wei Tie must be grateful. If you have any difficulties in the future, please don't worry. Please give me your instructions."

Ding Ran waved his hand: "This is all the result of your loyal duties and solving problems for the people for many years. If this happened to Zheng Zhi, I'm afraid it would be another result."

After listening to Ding Ran's explanation, Wei Tie no longer struggled: "Thank you sir, Wei Tie understands."

After leaving the hospital, Wei Tie went door-to-door to express his gratitude to them for rescuing his son. The neighbors waved their hands and said no thank you, and Wei Tie became more determined to never collude with the Li family in the future.
