The Golden County Magistrate

"I have something to do. Let's go to my barracks."

Chen Yan turned and left.

Zhang Dabiao turned to look at the new recruits: "Practice first!"

Seeing that his face was like a tiger again, everyone hurriedly responded in unison: "Yes!"

Zhang Dabiao turned back and followed Chen Yan happily.

The new recruits breathed a sigh of relief and whispered.

"Sir, look at the look on your face. It seems that you have been beaten by the county magistrate many times, right?"

"That's right! I can't believe that the county magistrate, who looks so tender and clean, is actually a master!"

"No, I have to train harder! Otherwise, when will I be able to stand out?"

"Look at that fourth-class sergeant, Brother Cao, he is so strong. Can we really become that strong?"

...

After entering his barracks, Chen Yan lay down on the small couch and said lazily: "Have you exchanged the silver bills given to you?"

Zhang Dabiao hurriedly said: "I have sent people, but the Caiji Silver Shop in Wuyin may not be able to exchange more than 500,000 taels of silver immediately, so I asked the brothers to split up more than ten places and go to various large cities nearby, Disperse and exchange. "

Chen Yan praised: "You have been with me for so long, and you have made some progress!"

Zhang Dabiao grinned: "Thanks to your cultivation! If it weren't for your usual reminders, how could my brain open up?"

Chen Yan couldn't help but laugh: "Your flattery skills are also increasing day by day. By the way, there is one more thing. Have the brothers in Jizhou sent back other news?"

Zhang Dabiao's face was serious: "There have been no news in the past two days. What can be found has basically been checked, that is, the news sent back a few days ago."

Chen Yan gently pinched his chin and said thoughtfully: "It seems that this Gongsun is hiding quite deeply."

Bai Lu certainly didn't know that Chen Yan had already asked Jizhou's spies to investigate.

When the civil uprising first came out, Chen Yan found something wrong.

Civil uprisings broke out in many places at the same time. If you say that there is no one behind the instigation, he is the first to disbelieve.

Although he did not intend to intervene in these matters, it is necessary to investigate them clearly.

If he wants to do business and make money, how can he not understand the general situation of the world?

If the results of the investigation may affect his business, he should be prepared.

So in the past few days, Jizhou's spies have also investigated everything and roughly figured out what is going on.

But of course he couldn't tell Bai Lu directly that he had already found the result. He would have to spend a few more days and get the money before giving out the information.

The instigator behind the civil uprising in Jizhou was Gongsun Cheng.

This man traveled all over Jizhou in two months. He went to wherever the disaster was serious and instigated one place after another. Finally, he succeeded in making the victims erupt together and collectively revolted not long ago.

The government offices of Jizhou's cities and towns were all rushed and looted by refugees overnight, the official warehouses were smashed, the official silver was seized, and even the vendors were affected.

The governor of Jizhou was trapped by the refugees for a whole day and night before he was finally rescued by the government army to disperse the refugees. But the government army was weak and had no power to suppress the civil uprising. They could only protect the government office from being destroyed.

The whole Jizhou began to be in chaos until Xun Yufei led his army to Jizhou.

The well-trained black-armored cavalry and other imperial troops rushed here and there like a fire brigade, gradually suppressing the fire of the civil uprising.

After that, the imperial court finally sent silver and grain for disaster relief, which temporarily put an end to the civil uprising in Jizhou.

Before that, Gongsun Cheng disappeared.

However, Chen Yan was not worried about the whereabouts of this person. As long as the other party would appear in a place where there were people, he would eventually fall into the grasp of his eyes.

But he asked his men to investigate Gongsun Cheng's origins, but he never got any results.

The only thing that was certain was that this person had nothing to do with Tang Shuo.

"Continue to have people investigate this person, and we must find out his origins as much as possible."

"Destroying the stability of the Great Zhou is ruining the environment for my business, and it is against me!"

"Wait until I find out all his ancestors for eighteen generations, and then I will teach him a lesson!"

Chen Yan said with a straight face.

Zhang Dabiao was secretly worried about Gongsun Cheng.

This guy could have offended anyone else, but he chose to offend the adults. His future is worrying!

But then again, Gongsun Cheng probably didn't expect that he would offend a powerful person far away in Longzhou when he was making trouble in Jizhou.

Chen Yan calmed down and said, "By the way, when the recruits are resting during the training, ask Wang Yue to come see me. I have something to ask him."

Zhang Dabiao hurriedly said, "Yes!"

Two hours later, Wang Yue arrived at Chen Yan's barracks and saluted the latter a little awkwardly.

"Don't be restrained, sit down." Chen Yan said with a smile.

"Yes, sir!" Wang Yue responded and sat down on the chair next to him. But he didn't dare to sit down firmly., half sitting empty, his back still straight.

"I watched the fight between you and Cao Liu today, it was really good." Chen Yan said casually.

"Ah? This... I am ashamed." Wang Yue blushed and felt embarrassed.

To be honest, before fighting with Cao Liu, he was indeed very confident in himself.

He had learned kung fu before and was very powerful. During the journey south, he saved people with this kung fu.

But he didn't expect that he couldn't hold on for a round in front of him!

Thinking of his previous shameless request for three people to come at the same time, it was really embarrassing!

"Don't be ashamed. Although Cao Liu is only a fourth-class sergeant, the elite sergeants of the Great Zhou may not be his opponents." Chen Yan said with a smile.

"Brother Cao is indeed extraordinary. It is even more admirable that you can train such amazing sergeants." Wang Yue sighed.

This kid, apart from other things, has the potential to flatter, and is worth cultivating!

Chen Yan was pleased and said, "That's true, but I think you have great potential, and you may be able to enter the fourth-class, no, the third-class sergeant in the future!"

Wang Yue was speechless for a moment, not knowing what to say.

He was actually very ambitious. Although he knew that the fourth-class sergeant was already very powerful, he had made up his mind in his heart that he would definitely enter the first-class sergeant in the future.

As a result, according to what this adult said, he could only enter the third class at most?

"Looking at your expression, it seems that you don't just want to be a third-class sergeant? Do you look down on the third class?" Chen Yan narrowed his eyes and looked at him.

"This..." Wang Yue didn't want him to be so direct, and was a little at a loss for a moment.

"Let's not talk about this for now. I want to ask you, you must have been impressed by the blow Cao Liu gave you, but I don't know what you saw when Zhang Bingcao dealt with Cao Liu?" Chen Yan changed the subject.

"Sergeant Zhang's strength is indeed extraordinary!" Wang Yue said sincerely. Thinking of the previous scene, he was still frightened.

If you say that Sergeant Zhang's strength is ridiculous, then it is also far from the truth!

"Oh, if you only see this point, it is a bit disappointing to me." Chen Yan smiled and shook his head.
