I have a magical tree

In Yanghe County, Ge Lao was packing his luggage. The house here had been disposed of. He lived in the Shangyi Bureau for a while. Anyway, there was an official residence reserved for him.

It was enough for a short stay.

But as he packed, he sighed and suddenly felt lost. He had been in this place for a long time and was very familiar with everything here. Now he was leaving, and he couldn't help but feel nostalgic.

But he couldn't stay in this place. During this Guijiao Rebellion, many colleagues in the Shangyi Bureau also suffered and lost their lives.

During this period, he also sent a lot of gold and silver to those families, but people died. He couldn't do more.

"Ge Lao, are you leaving today?" Li Yan came in from the door and didn't seem surprised by what he saw.

In fact, if Ge Lao hadn't stayed here for a few days to prepare for inquiries, he would have left on the day the people from the prefecture came!

Old Ge nodded, "It's time to go. My wife and disciples have settled down in the city. I should go there too. There's no point in staying here!"

Li Yan was silent for a long time, "Then I will send Old Ge off respectfully!"

Old Ge smiled, "You are a capable person. I have reported your actions to the governor. If you want to stay here, you can be a county governor."

Li Yan bowed again, "Thank you, Old Ge."

After Li Yan left, other colleagues from the Shangyi Bureau were left. Although they were reluctant, they did not try to keep him. After all, going to the city was a good thing. Yanghe County was too small after all.

In fact, when Old Ge successfully refined the fourth-grade healing pill, they knew that they would definitely not be able to keep Old Ge here. How could Yanghe County retain a mid-level alchemist?

Even in the city, there was only one mid-level alchemist. Even in the nearby prefectures and counties, there were alchemists, but they were only first- and second-grade, and some even had none.

These medical officers prepared their own gifts, no matter how expensive, but the intention was really there.

Then, they sent Ge Lao to the city gate together.

"Ge Lao, have a safe trip!" Many medical officers bowed and saluted.

"Everyone, go back!" Ge Lao also bowed his hands again to thank.

The carriage started, and after only a few hundred steps, several riders suddenly came galloping from the city. They were Jiang Taiqing and Qu Jun.

"Ge Yi Cheng, slow down!" Jiang Taiqing pulled the reins.

Ge Lao also reined in the horse, a little curious about what these two were doing here. They couldn't be here to see him off, right?

"Master Jiang, what's the matter?"

"Please ask Ge Yi Cheng to bring a memorial to the Lord of the Mansion for me!" Jiang Taiqing took out a thick document from his sleeve.

These things are all the things he has investigated in the past few days, no matter how big or small, they are all in it. Because the matter is of great importance, he didn't even trust to use the official post to deliver it, but chose to let Ge Lao present it in person.

Old Ge put the document away solemnly, "Don't worry, Mr. Jiang, I will definitely deliver the document to the hands of the Lord of the Palace."

"I am naturally relieved when Medical Minister Ge does things! Medical Minister Ge is going to the city, and we will be colleagues in the city in the future." Jiang Taiqing smiled brightly.

He has received news that when Ge Yongyan arrives in the city, he will enter the Shangyi Bureau as a chief clerk. This is the highest official position in the Shangyi Bureau except for Mr. Wang.

That is, the second in command of the Shangyi Bureau in the city! And his rank will be raised to the fifth rank, which is the same as himself, the same rank.

Even if the official rank is put aside, this is also a real mid-level alchemist. It's too late to curry favor, so how can it be difficult? Everyone knows that the Shangyi Bureau is the most united.

Therefore, he asked Old Ge to deliver the document, and also used it to send him off. In this way, he did something and brought the two closer together, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

"Ge Yicheng, no, Ge Zhubu, have a safe trip!" Jiang Taiqing bowed.

Ge Lao hurriedly returned the greeting, thanked him a few times, and then drove away.

After Ge Lao walked away, Qu Jun spoke: "I didn't expect that there would be two mid-level alchemists in my Black Mountain Prefecture City in the future. This is a good thing!"

The pills made by the mid-level alchemists are just for the use of martial arts masters. Otherwise, they can only apply for quotas from the county city, but this quota is actually not enough.

The county city itself will consume a lot of pills, and then there are other prefectures under the jurisdiction of the county city. In this way, the quantity is not enough.

At that time, there will be a dilemma, that is, the officials have plenty of merits, but they can't exchange enough pills.

But if the prefecture city has its own mid-level alchemists, then with the quota, the pills will be enough for the officials to exchange. In this way, the merit system independent of the salary system can operate well without collapse.

Only in this way can a prefecture city continue to grow stronger.

Among all the prefectures under the jurisdiction of Xining County, the strength of Heishan Prefecture is definitely not strong, and it is even a little weak. It was a strange disaster a few years ago that caused the power of the prefecture to suffer a great blow. Now it has been recovering in the past few years and has not yet reached its peak.

And now there is an additional mid-level alchemist, which is like adding wings to a tiger.

"I heard that this disciple of Ge Zhubu is also a genius in alchemy!" Jiang Taiqing said without thinking.

Qu Jun understood that such people need to befriend, and there will be many benefits in the future! It is possible that Ge Yongyan's disciple will also be a mid-level alchemist in the future.

Two mid-level alchemists in a family will be treated as guests of honor by the county governor even if they are placed in the county. After all, although there are high-level alchemists in the county, mid-level alchemists are the real backbone.

After all, the elixirs at the level of precious pills are the ones with the greatest demand.

Only when you reach the Grandmaster level do you need high-level elixirs, but how many Grandmasters are there in a county? And how many martial artists are there?

Without high-level alchemists, at most the Grandmaster level will have a hard time, but you can also obtain elixir resources through other channels.

But if the martial artist level cannot get resources, it is far from enough to rely entirely on external channels, and the consequence of insufficient resources is the collapse of order.

"Master Jiang, we have been searching everywhere these days, but the harvest is really small! I don't know how Huang Ji did it. We used all the methods we could, but we couldn't even find the direction he left." Qu Jun felt a headache when talking about business. To be honest, he hadn't encountered such a situation. It is said that people leave their names behind and wild geese leave their voices behind.

As long as people are still alive, as long as Huang Ji doesn't disappear abruptly, there will always be some traces left, but now they have exhausted all their means and got nothing.

In this way, they can't complete the task!

Jiang Taiqing shook his head, "I didn't get anything either!"

"Didn't the Lord of the Mansion give you a few super-quality tracking talismans? Why don't you give them a try?" Qu Jun thought Jiang Taiqing was reluctant to give up the super-quality talismans.

But Jiang Taiqing still shook his head, "I tried, but it didn't work!"
