"Yes, Qiuhong used to be the home of a bandit in the county. After the bandit was wiped out by us, the money will be cheaper for Qiuhong."

"Chen Ming just knew about this."

"Of course I know, but now I know some of their rules of the world," Zhou Botaohui reported, "As usual, there are fast and strong classes for this kind of thing, and Chen Minggang has to give at least part of it to the two classes. All of a sudden, such a direct engulfment, they call it 'injury', and it is a very serious matter to speak out."

"I won't bring this matter up for the time being, and we'll do it when there is a need for dogs to bite dogs between the six rooms." Ran Yao said, "But if there are any small things, let them be released first, so that they can fight and fight."

Zhou Botao understood it, and immediately instructed his subordinates to bring out all the black materials collected in the past year from the three classes and six rooms—these materials were already accumulated a lot, and since Gou Er's account book was partially deciphered, many old stories have been added. The material is more credible when disseminated.Now I found some suitable ones, and distributed them one by one to match Jackie Chan.

A wind of suspicion suddenly began to blow in the Lingao County Yamen. Lingao is a small place, and rumors can spread from Dongmen City to the county seat in less than a day. ——People who eat official meals in the yamen have a lot of eyes. Many old things don't matter if they don't mention them. When they are mentioned, all kinds of suspicions from the past will surface.

In addition to such rumors, there was also news that Chen Minggang was going to let Australians take over this year's tax. This news was spread by Chen Minggang's apprentices.This matter is done, needless to say; even if the Australian is not going to wade into this muddy water, he still intends to use this big sign to scare people—anyway, no one dares to ask the Australian if there is such a thing Afterwards, I just need to report part of the money and food to the Australians.

Wang Zhaomin was not interested in these rumors, but he was sweating anxiously when Chen Minggang was going to attract Australians to pay taxes.This matter has now been spread with nose and eyes, and it is probably not groundless.He hastily called Chen Minggang over, and asked him seriously if there was such a thing?

"That's exactly what happened." Chen Minggang replied generously.Although he performed the ceremony in front of Mr. Wang, he was respectful, but his air was extremely arrogant-this kind of subordinate in a remote place, because the local administration is extremely dependent on him, even the county magistrate is not in the eyes, let alone a master like Wang Zhaomin. .

"You are so brave!" Wang Zhaomin was so angry that his beard fell apart, "What is the origin of the thieves? You dare to collude with them. When the imperial court soldiers come in the future, I see how you can get away with it!"

"If you go back to Master Wang, if you can't get rid of the responsibility at that time, there will naturally be someone who is younger than you." Chen Minggang looked like a rascal.

Wang Zhaomin suddenly became angry. Speaking of which, there are still people in the Lingao County Yamen who can say that they are clean and self-sufficient, and they have not hooked up with the gangsters.Like the petty officials, Zuo only received a few circulation coupons, so I'm afraid he will not be able to explain clearly to Jing Jing.

After all, Wang Zhaomin was a member of Jiumu, so he held his breath very calmly, and said in a deep voice: "Old Ba, I advise you to understand it! These gangsters are definitely not kind. If you provoke them, I am afraid that the only one who will suffer in the end is the Own!"

"Whether you suffer or not, that's something for later. Master Wang must find a way to deal with the immediate matter." Chen Minggang did not show any weakness.Of course he knows that Australians are not easy to deal with, but relying on his familiarity with the county's money and food, even if you Australians have superb skills, you can't collect food without your own help-"reasonable burden"?This thing is indeed clever, but the food that can be levied is also extremely limited. It can only be regarded as a "happy donation" from the government, and it is impossible to maintain it for a long time.

The matter in front of me naturally refers to the upcoming autumn grain collection, not only grain, but also the additional Liao pay, as well as miscellaneous taxes in the county and per capita money.All these things add up to the top priority of the county.Wang Zhaomin has also been troubled by this recently.

Liang Fu itself is good to say, Wang Zhaomin knows that as long as he tries hard to remind, he can generally finish the class.What's more, after the Australians wiped out the bandits this year, the powerful local landlords who colluded with the bandits have restrained a lot, and they probably won't do openly confronting the government, but now they have a better choice-the Australians.

If they blatantly use the Australians as their backup-this is not impossible, just like they used to collude with bandits, the matter of food collection will become very difficult.

It seems that no matter what, if we don't cooperate with the Australians, I'm afraid this autumn grain will be in great trouble.Thinking of this, he couldn't help secretly hating Chen Minggang for going to the Australians to discuss autumn grain for his own self-interest. Now that he wants to discuss cooperation with the Australians, I am afraid that he will ignore him if the price is not too high.

Xiong Buyou came back and reported the results of the meeting with Chen Minggang to Wu De. He heard that Chen Minggang also wanted to use the time-traveling group, which surprised Wu De—it seems that there are people who make money from the frying pan everywhere.

"It seems that we have become popular. Both Wang Zhaomin and Chen Minggang want to borrow our brand." Wen Desi smiled.

"This way we can talk about the price." Wu De said, "Wang Zhaomin originally didn't intend to cooperate with us, but just wanted us to make a gesture. Now that Chen Minggang came to disrupt the situation, he has to come. It saves us a lot of money." A lot of effort."

"It seems that Chen Minggang will offer a better price."

"Should we cooperate with him?"

"I don't think it's necessary." Wu De didn't hesitate, "We didn't come to Lingao to be officials, but to control the county government. There's no need to engage in so many twists and turns. One more thing, based on our understanding of this The level of social understanding, if you want to compete with them professionally, I am afraid that you will not be the opponent of this group of subordinates."

Even the county magistrate himself can't figure out all kinds of official affairs in the county government office, let alone outsiders like them?As a foreign athlete, I have to compete with local athletes who are familiar with the rules. No matter how skilled I am, I will lose if I make a foul.

To deal with this situation, we can only break it with force, destroy the old order, establish new rules, and force everyone to operate under the new order they stipulate.

"Of course, in terms of materials, we still need to rely on their expertise for the time being." Wu De said, "Let's not get angry with him for now, let's see how sincere this guy is, and we are ready to take over."

"Want to cooperate with Wang Zhaomin?" Xiong Buyou didn't like this master very much, but he still felt that Chen Minggang was straightforward in negotiating the price and terms.

"Of course! This is the right way." Wu De said with certainty, "The subordinate officials are untouchables. We want to establish our own image. How can we mix with them? Wang Zhaomin and Wu Mingjin are upright officials. The status in the eyes of the people is different."

Leaders are always good, but it is the crooked monk below who recited the scriptures badly.This theory is not unique to modern times.Chinese people have thought so since ancient times.It is not a matter of time for the traversers to turn around.

Because the collection of autumn grain is imminent, all parties held a joint meeting. At the meeting, it was decided with Chinese characteristics to set up a special county government leadership working group, which was directly controlled by Wu De's civil affairs committee.

"Manpower and material resources can be allocated by you." Wen Desi said to Wu De, "You can also control the intelligence department, and you can also mobilize the special investigation team when necessary-I have greeted Bei Wei and are always on call. Concentrate on taking down the county government this time!"

"It's a big responsibility." Wu De said, "But I will try my best. In addition, I have to find some ruthless guys for me."

"Okay." Wen Desi said, "Anyone is fine."

So Wu De transferred Zhou Dongtian.Zhou Dongtian has been engaged in printing recently, and his face is full of ink. Because he still needs to test type, he came directly to Wu De's office.

"Old Zhou," Wu De said, "I know you have done odd jobs for Ran Yao, and you may have to do this side job on a large scale recently."

Zhou Dongtian grinned, showing his white teeth.

On this day, Zhang Youfu came to Xiong Buyou and said that Master Wang wanted to secretly meet with the leader of the Crossing Group in Shexia. Xiong Buyou guessed that it was probably for the collection of autumn grain.

The next night, in Zhang Youfu's Zhuangzi, the two sides had a secret meeting: Wang Zhaomin saw that not only Xiong Buyou, but also a big boss - he knew Wu De, and knew that this person was very powerful among Australians. It belongs to the level of "giant canal".

After a few words of politeness from both parties, Wang Zhaomin went straight to the point and asked: Is it true that Chen Minggang asked you to undertake the taxation of the autumn grain recently?

"You can say yes, or you can say no." Xiong Buyou said vaguely.

Wang Zhaomin secretly scolded the gangster for being cunning, so he could only patiently ask: "What do you mean by what you have and what you don't have?"

"Chen Minggang did come to us to mention this matter, but we are still discussing it and have not yet reached a conclusion."

"There is no conclusion", which means that there is still room for redemption. Wang Zhaomin knows that this is a bargain.I have to cheer up the spirit of 12 points.

"What do you guys plan to do?"

"Chen Ming just promised a few conditions." Xiong Buyou said, "It's very generous."

"Chen Minggang, a county bastard, is just a despicable villain. Could it be that the nobles trust him?"

Xiong Buyou smiled and said: "I believe it, forgive him for not having the guts to lie to us."

Wang Zhaomin earnestly pointed out that the so-called cheating does not refer to the discrepancy in the amount of money and food, but that he will use the cross-travelers to pretend to be powerful and extort everywhere.

"...When you first came here, you didn't know much about Daming and the county situation here. Thinking about this kind of untouchables, it took a long time to control the county government, and they are very familiar with each other. If you use the power of the nobles to make some troubles Common people, it is very harmful to the reputation of nobles!"

Wang Zhaomin knew that Australians valued his prestige more, so he had no choice but to impress them from this aspect.
