Liu Mao did not take office immediately. This time he came, but only discussed the handover with Ye Zhao. After politely rejecting Ye Zhao's hospitality, he hurriedly left and rushed back to Zhu County to mobilize troops to take office.

"Master, let go like this?" Qiu Chi said reluctantly. Although he knew that Ye Zhao might not be able to stay in this Macheng for a long time, he was still a little unwilling to accept it so suddenly.

"The rank of the Wuhuan Captain is 1,600 stones, and the rank of the governor of a state is only 2,000 stones. This is already considered a real official position in Youzhou, and its status is not much worse than that of the governor. It is already very good to use a Wuhuan Captain to exchange for Macheng. What else do you want?" Ye Zhao was very open-minded. From the beginning, he had not planned to stay in Macheng for a long time. Now he was able to get a position of Wuhuan Captain to protect Wuhuan Captain. Now, it is beyond expectations.

The Yellow Turban Uprising had not yet appeared, and the generals of the Han Dynasty were not permanent. Apart from the generals in Luoyang and generals like Liu Yan who were appointed as the General of the Central Army, the lieutenant was basically the peak of the military position. He had three schools of soldiers and horses, six thousand people, which sounded not many, but you should know that before the Yellow Turban Uprising broke out, the entire Han Dynasty recorded less than 100,000 troops, and Ye Zhao was already a senior in the military system. What else could he be dissatisfied with?

Unless he couldn't think of rebelling with a Macheng, the result would be the best now. At least Liu Yan was quite kind and did not directly transfer him. Otherwise, with Liu Yan's identity as a Han clan and his status in the scholars, Ye Zhao could only endure this tone.

When Qiu Chi heard this, he could only sigh in secret. If Ye Zhao had been promoted to the Wuhuan Captain, his status would be many times greater than that of Macheng at the beginning. However, the times changed. After two years of governance, Macheng not only became one of the few county towns in Youzhou, but its interests were even more terrifying. The most important thing is that Ye Zhao had the military and political power here. Although the position of the Wuhuan Captain was high, it had many constraints. Although there were three schools under his command, it was still a question whether the other two schools could command the movements.

Ye Zhao patted Qiu Chi on the shoulder and smiled, "Don't be stupid. Even if there is no such thing, you wouldn't think that the court would always leave all the military and political power of Macheng to me in this way, right?"

"Uh..." Qiu Chi was stunned when he heard this, and then suddenly realized that in addition to the generous treatment of three years of tax exemption, the most important thing is that all rights are Ye Zhao, and others cannot interfere.

However, the three-year tax exemption rights given by the court are only a few months away. Once the tax system is restored, with the current heavy taxes of the court, it is impossible for Macheng to make money every day as before. At least half of the taxes must be handed over to the court. The remaining amount is to maintain the weapons and city defense, and there are still some miscellaneous daily expenses, even if there is a surplus, there will never be too much.

If you calculate this, it would be good to be promoted to the Wuhuan Captain. As Ye Zhao's number one military advisor, his status will naturally rise. However, when he arrived at the lieutenant's mansion, he would probably not be as glorious as Macheng.

"I have someone prepare a generous gift to Zhuxian. The General of the Central Army is now the prefect of Zhuxian and is also a relative of the Han Dynasty. Now that he has this opportunity, he wants to make friends. Remember, it is a heavy gift, don't be stingy." Ye Zhao said with a smile.

China has been a society of human relationships since ancient times. Ye Zhao wanted to go further. At least before the Han Dynasty was overturned, he had to establish his connections first. Unfortunately, his father, whom he had never met, died too early, and his former connections had long faded away. Now his connections are centered on Cai Yong and Wang Fen. One seems to be a great scholar in the scholarship and the other is a governor of a state. He is quite strong, but in fact, it is impossible for him to revolve around him all day long, so Ye Zhao must continue to expand his connections, and Liu Yan is obviously a good choice.

"Don't worry, lord, my subordinates know what to do." Qiu Chi bowed.

"Let Ali pack up his luggage, and when Liu Mao's men arrive, we will go to Jundu Mountain!" Ye Zhao stretched and walked out.

Jundu Mountain is the location of the Wuhuan School Commander, and its responsibility is to prevent the Wuhuan from going south to the border. However, in the past two years, with the large-scale trade with the Xianbei, Wuhuan and other tribes, many small tribes have gathered towards the Danhan Mountain area. Macheng has eighteen passes to defend, plus Liu Mao’s two thousand tigers. As long as the main general is not a brainless person, even if he really has a quarrel with the tribes in the Danhan Mountain area, it is enough to protect himself.

On the contrary, this Jundu Mountain is located between Yanshan and Wuhuan Mountain Mountains, and is also the main direction for the Hu people to move south. It is very important to have strategic significance. In previous years, the Wuhuan School Guard Mansion was basically built here. Ye Zhao didn't want to do anything. Now it was the sixth year of Guanghe. The Taiping Cult had already started to make arrangements three years ago. Up to now, the Yellow Turban Uprising as far as he knew should be about to break out. Once the Yellow Turban Uprising broke out, Ye Zhao would write a letter to drag Cai Yong to help him talk to him and join the sequence of suppressing the Yellow Turban Uprising. As long as he has enough merits, relying on Cai Yong's connections and enough merits, and secretly looking for the Ten Eternal Services, it should not be difficult to find an official position in Luoyang.

The rank of officials looks glorious, but at this time the world is not in chaos. The glorious officials of officials is something that happened later. Now, just like the brothers of Guo Xun, holding the military and political power of Youzhou for several years. However, after a word from the court, you have to withdraw and you have to resist. You have not allowed you to resist. Before the world was completely in chaos, the rank of officials is only the rank of officials, and they will definitely not be able to hold troops and respect themselves. Even if the court is now corrupt, you will definitely not be able to hold troops and respect yourself.

It is precisely because of this that Liu Yan wanted Ma Cheng and Ye Zhao to have a relationship so readily. Before the foundation of the Han Dynasty was completely shaken, the power center of the Han Dynasty was always in Luoyang rather than in the place. If he wanted to make a difference in the future, he had to go to Luoyang to gilt. One was power and the other was the name.

Although Ye Zhao is now doing well in this Ma City, his reputation is limited to the Youzhou area. Who knows him in the Central Plains?

It will take some time to leave. Ye Zhao took advantage of the next few days to start dealing with some tails. All the craftsman talents he cultivated in the past two years were sent back to Hanoi. These were the foundation for his future rise. In the past two years, he has developed a lot of good things. Now the time has not come, so it is difficult to take them out, but these people must not be let go. They will pack and send them to Hanoi with their families. As a vassal of the Ye family, Liang Uncle will be responsible for managing them. After he has planned the foundation for the future, these people will be sent over.

In addition, it is property. In the past two years, with the convenience of tax exemption, in addition to the large-scale development of Macheng, Ye Zhao's own private pockets have been gained a lot. These are the private property of his Ye family, and they are also legal income. In addition to taking part of it out to maintain his connections, as long as the rest is allowed, he can rely on these family wealth to form a unit at any time.

"Lord, that woman is awake!" Three days later, Ye Zhao was handling official business. Guan Hai strode in and bowed.

"Let's go and have a look." Ye Zhao stood up after hearing this, followed Guan Hai to the small courtyard where the woman was placed.

"I have met the county magistrate." When I arrived at the courtyard, a doctor had just walked out of the room and saw Ye Zhao, he hurried forward to worship.

"Sir, don't be too polite." Ye Zhao stretched out his hand to help him, looked at the doctor and said, "Is this girl ready?"

"I was unconscious for three days and three nights, and my fortune was saved." The doctor shook his head and sighed: "I have been practicing medicine all my life. Such a cruel person is rare, not to mention a woman, even a man. According to what the military Sima said, this woman had experienced hard battles before coming to Macheng, and her body had been severely damaged. After that, she could still follow the county magistrate to Macheng for dozens of miles. If it weren't for the timely treatment, she would have returned to the underworld at this moment!"

"So severe?" Ye Zhao said in surprise. Although this woman was scary before, she followed them all the way back to Macheng. It was expected that she would be unconscious for three days and three nights as soon as she fell into a coma. This made Ye Zhao feel a little inappropriate.

"I'm afraid it's more serious than adults imagined. This woman has many old problems, and the new and old wounds are no less than 300, and more than ten of them are enough to be fatal. These are just old problems. What's even more terrifying is the nature of this woman." A look of surprise flashed in the doctor's eyes.

"What do you mean?" Ye Zhao asked with a smile.

"Do you know the scar on her face?" the doctor asked.

"I know." Ye Zhao nodded. How could he forget? His originally beautiful face completely destroyed the beauty because of that scar.

"This scar starts from the left forehead to the bottom of the skeleton. Although the knife mark is rolled up, it is definitely not caused by the quick blade. If I read it correctly, the knife mark is clearly the woman's own sore!" The doctor said in a deep voice.

"Self-sores!" Even Ye Zhao's nature couldn't help but gasp. He knew very well how important it was to a woman, especially a pretty good-looking woman, to destroy her face. I really don't know what this woman has endured?

"Yes, I have my own sores." The doctor sighed: "This woman's ruthless trick is decisive. I am the only one I have seen in my life. It is best not to keep her by my side, otherwise..."

The doctor didn't continue to say that even if such a cruel woman was listening, she felt scared. It would be no good to keep such a woman by her side.

"I understand, there is an old man." Ye Zhao nodded silently, turned his head to look at the guard who was following him and said, "Go to the account and give the sir an extra thousand dollars."

"Here!" the guard agreed and bowed to the doctor and said, "Sir, please."

"Thank you, sir." The doctor hurriedly thanked. Although Ye Zhao was crazily absorbing the energy from the outside world like a vampire on weekdays, he was quite generous to his own people, especially those who have outstanding achievements in all walks of life. Otherwise, Macheng would not have attracted so many famous craftsmen and doctors.

No wonder he is so familiar!
