Chapter 253 People can't be generalized

But Wei Yuan came to the yamen angrily and wanted to reveal the list of rewards.

There were two yamen runners on duty next to them, drinking.

There was no food or food on the table, and there was no peanuts, so I drank a little too much.

Seeing Wei Yuan reaching out to reveal the list, one of the young yamen runners immediately shouted: "Hehehe! What are you doing? Do you know what this is and move around? Don't you want to live anymore, right?"

If the yamen runners acted as mighty and blessed, they would not yell at monks.

Because these days, many monks have really tried their best. Even if they are not strange masters, they are also heroes in the green forest.

It would be fine if the yamen runners usually bully the common people and the merchants and passers-by. If they really get into trouble, they will be killed in the street.

But now, this is not without peanuts, it’s so high!

"What? Want to reveal the list?" The young yamen runner looked up and down at Wei Yuan and saw that it was a young monk in his twenties.

He didn't look like a capable strong man. In addition, Wei Yuan had a handsome and tough facial features. Even if he shaved his head, he was still a handsome guy (or if he shaved his head, he turned from a young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes to a handsome guy), and the yamen runner got angry.

Same-sex people refute each other, especially when they see someone who is more beautiful/smart than themselves.

The yamen runner was drunk and disgusted, and his attitude became even worse.

He narrowed his eyes, blushed with his face and stood there, swaying: "Do you want to reveal the list, do you know the rules?"

"What rules?" Wei Yuan was in a bad mood and asked with a glaring look on his face.

After all, he was a monk who slaughtered millions of corpses and was like eating an elbow. He was full of murderous aura. His glaring glance scared the yamen runner.

When the yamen runner reacted, he became even more angry, "What rules? Rules are to get money! Why can cats and dogs reveal this list? Five taels of silver! Get out of here if you lose one penny!"

The salaries of the yamen runners are given by the yamen, not by the state.

Besides, the central court is becoming increasingly useless and has no financial resources or influence. It cannot even take out the money for the normal transportation of canals and rivers. It has to discuss with the big merchants behind the high-ranking officials to gather members. Where can I have the ability to take into account these yamen runners?

The permanent soldiers, regiments, and garrisons in various places were abandoned or controlled by local business groups, and they were still in charge of yamen runners?

Even if the local government pays some salary, it is very small.

For example, these three yamen runners cost two taels of silver every month. In Hangzhou, you can spend only one person and drink wine and eat meat for a few months. But it is too difficult to support your family!

Let’s put it this way, a small remote house in Hangzhou Fucheng will cost four or five hundred taels of silver without a courtyard.

The annual income of the farmer family with three people outside the city ranges from five to ten taels.

But in most cases, you can’t save money by simply farming. It’s okay if you don’t get sick, but you’ll be hard if you get sick.

If the year is not good, you may have to borrow money to survive the trouble of the new year. If it is bad, you will turn from a free citizen to a tenant, or you may simply sell yourself as a slave in the year of a disaster.

With the salary level of the yamen runners, you can probably save one for twenty years without eating or drinking. If the housing prices do not rise.

So, at any time, housing prices will be a mountain on the people!

Hangzhou’s prefecture is full of flowers, but in the prosperous place, the gap between the rich and the poor is so huge that it is unimaginable.

Even the yamen runners who are very tall and high-ranking in the eyes of the poor can only barely get enough food and clothing in Hangzhou Prefecture.

But people cannot die of suffocation by urine. Is it a yamen runner who is willing to be content with poverty? Then why don’t I live in seclusion and become a monk?

The yamen runners’ money comes to you just want to eat and get a card!

The shops on the street have to pay a few taels of silver every month. As for the names, there are too many, such as security fees, sanitation fees, patrol money... The small vendors who set up stalls in the city can't escape. Those who lead donkeys to drive cars collect carts and those who carry loads charge road fees...

There are also those who are in trouble, so you have to peel them. If you have nothing to do, you have to get some trouble on you!

Nowadays, many people are simply trading outside the city because of these unexplained fees.

Of course, that's not easy, because there are still scoundrels who have strong people to grab land and collect money.

They organized more than a dozen or twenty good players to occupy a prosperous area. While running a store to buy and sell alcohol, drinks, and prostitutes at gambling, they also used protection fees!

It’s like the “Happy Forest” in Water Margin where Wu Song got drunk to beat Jiang Menshen!

...

Therefore, this announcement actually requires money.

In the morning, the fat monk secretly stuffed two taels of silver.

As for why the price has increased to 500 taels when you come to Wei Yuan, there is no way for me to dislike you!

"I will eliminate the harm for the people and release the list to eliminate monsters, but I will even give money?" Wei Yuan was about to be angry and laughed.

Am I taking on a mission at the Adventurer Guild in the Western World? Are I going to pay a deposit or what?

The young yamen runner raised his chin proudly: "Nonsense! Don't give money, let grandpas drink the northwest wind? If you don't give me love, don't give me away!"

It’s all my business to remove monsters? Checking cash is my job!

The old yamen runner who drank with this young yamen runner had a good alcohol tolerance, and when he was older, he must have a much better temper.

At this moment, I looked drunk and felt Wei Yuan’s extraordinary momentum. I felt a little timid in my heart. I spoke and said calmly: “Hey, I have something to say.”

As he said that, he said to Wei Yuan, "Monster, don't be angry. There is no way. It's all this rule. Don't be five taels, two taels of silver! I'm sorry. If you can abandon that monster, we will be happy, right?"

"No! Uncle Li..." The young yamen runner wanted to argue, but the old yamen runner glanced at him and had to give up angrily.

At this moment, Hou Yingxiong and the others caught up, and there were a large number of forty or fifty people watching the fun.

The old yamen runner's face changed suddenly, and he quickly straightened his hat. He bent over and arched his hands, and rushed out in two steps, but was stopped by the bodyguard beside Hou Yingxiong three steps away.

He followed him in a small step away, and said flatteringly: "Oh, Master Yingxiong! What wind has blown you? If you have anything, just say hello... Do you want to inform the county magistrate?"

As the saying goes: In three lives, the magistrate is attached to Guo; in three lives, he is attached to Guo's provincial capital; in three lives, he is attached to Guo's provincial capital; in many evil deeds, he is attached to Guo's Jingcheng.

The provincial capital of Guo is probably equivalent to the current mayor of the provincial capital.

The mayors are the bosses of the first and second leaders, but the mayors of provincial capitals are often quite frustrated.

There are too many mother-in-law on your head!

This Yuhang County Magistrate is the provincial capital of Guo, and it can be said to be a group of people who are uncomfortable.

The magistrate himself is the second son of a small local family, but was arranged to be the magistrate. Although there is no such thing as the magistrates of the magistrates of other places, there is not much to do, and it is considered leisure.

But this status is a little worse.

The only son of the Hou family, which ranks among the top ten in the mansion, has a much higher status than him.

Hou Yingxiong was impatient with the old yamen runner's flattery and tricked him, and waved his hand: "Get out, get out!"

"Oh!" The old yamen runner agreed and said crisply. He bent down to the bottom and retreated. At the same time, he felt a sweat and breathed a sigh of relief. When dealing with such a big family, he did not seek merit but did not seek to make mistakes.

The gap between people will increase with the status gap.

Not to mention the almost collapsed feudal society in front of us, even in the socialist dynasty in Wei Yuan’s previous life, did the eldest son of the Wang family scold the star surnamed Lin like a dog when he was playing games?

It’s even worse than the dog raised by Mr. Wang! That dog is still taking a private plane!

I also held a company talent show, queuing up to pick various internet celebrities, changing every month, and looking the same as the ancient emperor talent show girl!

Speaking of which, the word talent show is very interesting.

...

Hou Yingxiong chased after him with panting, "Master Wuji, wait for me."

Seeing Wei Yuan standing in front of the notice board, sneering, he asked carefully: "What's wrong with you?"

"What's wrong? I'm thinking about where to get five taels of silver!"

Hou Yingxiong looked question-marked, then waved his hand, and the old horse next to him quickly took out a ingot of five taels of silver and handed it on both hands.

Wei Yuan grabbed and waved his hand, and heard the trembling young yamen runner screaming from the trembling young mansion not far away and fell to the ground.

Wei Yuan smashed his nose with a silver, and blood flowed all over his face.

Hou Yingxiong now knows what's going on!

Good guy! I received the money from Master Wuji, but Master Wuji didn’t pull out a hair on his head!

These days, I have only seen him checking cash, but I have never seen him spending money. No matter if he wants money, you are seeking death! Do you think you are a tough guy?

Because he was worried that Wei Yuan would blow the turtle grandson's head with a Zen stick, Hou Yingxiong quickly scolded: "Damn Li Liang! You are so blind and Master Wuji dare to collect money. Are you still an individual?"

As he said that, he shouted at the old yamen runner who was hiding behind him, "It's time for him to check in. He told the magistrate to drive this grandson away!"

The old yamen runner nodded repeatedly and said yes.

My eldest nephew, I won’t help you if it’s not Uncle Li, who made you unlucky and offend Tai Sui!

After your father left, I will be kind to you. In the future, let my second son make up for your position first!

The people behind him who were watching the fun were so happy!

"Who is that young monk from? What's the origin? What a good guy, he hit the turtle grandson with a blow to his face!"

"Don't you say anything about the eldest master of the Hou family? Master Wuji! It seems that he wants to reveal the list and eliminate demons!"

"Hey! This grandson has today too! A few days ago, I sprinkled water and rubbed a little on his boots, and I was extorted two taels of silver! I'm sorry! I've been retribution!"

"Just yesterday, a young wife from another place asked him to touch several times in the name of searching for the murder weapon!"

"This grandson can't do the yamen runners now, and he will have a lot of them in the future!"

...

It was even later because of this trouble. Because of the monster's sucking people yesterday, there were few pedestrians on the streets of the city.

Hou Yingxiong advised Master Wuji: Let's go tomorrow! It's dark and not a good time to subdue demons. I'll ask three top cards to help the master to relieve the fire, and bring thirty or fifty people together tomorrow!

In the end, Wei Yuan reluctantly agreed... Of course, it was not because Hou Yingxiong called the three popular top cards, but Asuo said he could go to the local Chenghuang Temple to ask about the situation.

The importance of intelligence to combat is naturally self-evident.

If you really leave the city with great momentum tomorrow and you will not find the shadow of the monster for a long time, that would be funny!

So, Wei Yuan took advantage of the night, took chicken legs, Erha and Wukong to go to the City God Temple outside the city...
