"Nowadays, the superiors say that running water is not corrupt, and government officials are not allowed to pass on children. I, the chief arrester, arrest the heads of each class, or the clerk's office, and the clerks are all sent by the superiors, either from the Beijing camp or for the provincial examination."

Regarding this, Zhu Cunqu had no words and thought, without your humble status, if you are really allowed to remain hereditary, then people's hearts will really be impetuous.

In fact, the purpose of incorporating yamen servants into Liupin is to facilitate replacement, thus breaking the situation of county yamen being integrated.

However, just like the strong-armed gangster, even though he is a scholar, he is merciless in collecting money and is colluding with others.

"However, sixty officers are not enough for the county government." Bai Ying shook his head and said with a heavy tongue, "There are still many Bai officers."

"In our county, there are sixty government servants, and there are two hundred white servants. They bring their own dry food, and they are just waiting to make a living. In the future, they will be promoted to government servants first..."

By the end of the drink, everyone was almost lying down, and everyone was drinking like crazy.

Only Zhu Cunqu was still awake.

In the end, he didn't ask Bai Yi about it.

Because the imperial court really couldn't support so many people.

Ordinary government officials earn ten yuan and ten shi of grain a year. This is already a rare gift. If it is expanded too much, the pressure on the local area will be too great.

You must know that in the Ming Dynasty, a county government had no more than a hundred people. Now it has doubled. Although it is lighter than before, it is still limited.

This kind of white labor will naturally continue.

What they gain is nothing more than supplies from merchants on the streets and sharing the benefits of litigation cases.

The number of white servants depends on the size and prosperity of the county. Small counties will have two to three hundred, and large counties will have two to three thousand.

Even if he is considered a temporary worker, he must register with his household registration. After all, he has the power to enforce the law.

The four counties of Gyeonggi in the capital city are among the largest counties in the world. There is no one with less than a thousand white soldiers. In this way, with the help of thousands of soldiers and horses from five cities, it is possible to really suppress the millions of people in Jingying City.

The emperor actually wanted to establish a system, but once he calculated it, he felt that the finances were too much.

Four thousand white servants would have a salary of at least two hundred thousand.

If all the white servants in the world were given a salary of at least three to four hundred thousand, there would not be eighteen million that they could not withstand.

Besides, even if you give money, they will still do it.

Therefore, in the capital, white laborers can only receive one silver dollar per month and are regarded as temporary workers.

As soon as the capital became popular, all the prefectures and counties in the world followed suit and acted according to their ability. Basically, one stone of grain or five cents of silver yuan was enough.

Even so, prefectures and counties all over the country are still complaining, and this money and food are quite a lot.

The next day, Zhu Cunqu met the county magistrate at the county government office. After learning that he would be in charge of the river channel in the future, which was a thankless task, he had no choice but to admit it.

Zuoerguan also has his own yamen, each in charge of his own stall.

The general magistrate is responsible for litigation, prisons, and patrols; the county magistrate is responsible for taxation, money and grain, tax collection, and household registration.

The official rank of the chief executive is even lower, and he can only be responsible for a certain aspect, such as money, food, or patrolling.

The person in charge is the county magistrate, who has decision-making power and also has the power to allocate things to the boss and county magistrate.

If the power is monopolized, the county magistrate and the principal will become empty shells with no power at all.

In other words, the county magistrate did not approve of him, so he assigned him a job on the river.

Not long after we sat down, the person in charge of river inspection came to ask for an audience, and his tone was respectful.

According to the Ming Dynasty, there will be inspections at all dangerous passes, lakes and rivers in the world, but they are only at the ninth level.

"Xiaguan has three small boats, three to five servants, and about thirty white servants. The county's errands are done considerately, and there have never been any thieves or water bandits."

Zhu Cunqu nodded at this: "When a new official takes office, I don't have any firepower. You should take good care of it, as always."

Seeing that Shangguan was so polite, the inspector felt relieved and put down the red envelope: "You are old and new, this is the filial piety of the people on the lower river..."

Seeing this, Zhu Cunqu accepted it.

This is a bad habit that cannot be changed at all.

After sitting for a while, he walked towards the market entrance.

I have never seen beheading.

Sure enough, before noon, the market entrance was crowded with people. A large number of people were watching, and many white servants were surrounding them, beating anyone who came forward.

"The auspicious time has come, let's carry out the execution!"

After a while, the supervisor and beheading officer, who was the county magistrate, issued the order.

Soon, Tong Sheng, who had a slutty face after drinking last night, picked it up, took a sip of wine with an expressionless face, blew it onto the edge of the knife, and stabbed him.

"Click——"

The big human head hangs to the ground, with only a layer of skin connected to the neck.

The family members on the side immediately went over to check and saw that the skin and flesh were connected, and they immediately felt grateful.

The onlookers were even more excited.

Holding the bowl in one hand and holding silver cents and copper balls in the other, it can be said that I am crazy about it.

Some people who paid the money rushed in directly to get the steamed buns with blood, and ate them hungrily, for fear that someone would snatch them.

After eating, it felt like some magic elixir, and my face was filled with relief, as if the medicine had cured my illness.
