Volume Five_Chapter Four hundred and Twenty: Officials
Hearing the noise outside, I shook my head. Jing Yun was different from Li Poxiao in this respect. He was more eloquent and cared about the interests of the public.
Just now he said that he would file a complaint against me in the Dacheng God, but I also sided with him and told Zhou Xuan how to do it, and he actually forgot to file a complaint against me. It can be seen that although this person hates evil as much as he hates it, he still hates big and small evils.
There is a priority.
In fact, I never slander justice. Maybe in Li Poxiao's eyes and Jing Yun's eyes, I am evil, but this will not affect my determination to do this. If I don't kill decisively, the people around me will inevitably suffer.
After such a long time, too many people have died, including Lin Feiyu, Liu Fangyuan, the female layman, Lei Qing, Tong Sanjin, and maybe even Han Shanshan...
Are these not enough? The aristocratic family is approaching, Zhou Xuan is approaching, everyone is oppressing me, after the Tang family,
The Dacheng God's mansion looks ordinary on the surface, similar to Zhou Xuan's Dalong County mansion, but once you enter, the grandeur is really beyond the comparison of ordinary City Gods. It can be seen that this City God has made a lot of money during his reign.
The ghost king took us to the hall, where all kinds of delicacies had been laid out. The ghosts were all very greedy. The unlucky bear couldn't wait to eat. After saying a few words to Song Wanyi, he became unhappy and crawled over in a swaggering manner.
, you want to complain to me.
I didn't know what it was saying. I was not so polite. I picked up the braised elbow and put it in front of it.
The unlucky bear was so happy that he took the pig knuckle away in one bite.
Black Mao Jian immediately ran over to me and asked for food. I thought I couldn't favor one over the other. Seeing that the elbow in front of me was gone, I took the piece on the table next to me and gave it to Hei Mao Jian.
Turning back, Jiang Han had tears streaming down his face: "Master, I love this the most... Why did you offend Lao Hei? He just secretly ate a piece of it."
"You're crying all the time! Come on, I'll compensate you in a minute." I know Jiang Han likes to cry, but a pig's knuckle is not enough. I plan to call the kitchen worker and ask if he can have two more knuckles.
All I could do was ask for the one on the table of Dacheng Huang. In fact, there was no shortage of food at home, but it certainly wasn’t as delicious and tasty as it was cooked. No wonder the ghost generals were so excited.
Just as he was about to call the kitchen worker, the Great City God changed his clothes and came out of the inner room. Seeing the heated fight between the ghost general and I, he couldn't help laughing.
Dai Mei is the host here. She discussed it with me just now and immediately led us to salute and then waited for the Great City God to speak.
"The petitioner Hu Jingyun is too ignorant. He comes to the Chenghuang Mansion every day to cause trouble. I don't know where this kid comes from so many things. Alas, it has caused trouble for you, so I have prepared some small errands for you to do in private.
Greeting the distant guests is considered an apology. If I, Yi Yang, did anything bad at the court meeting just now, you must forgive me." The Great City God chuckled, looking like a kind old man.
Dai Mei was very skilled in dealing with this kind of scene, and said with a slight smile: "How dare you? Lord Cheng Huang is famous for his generosity and kindness, and he is even more kind to his subordinates. My master also doesn't want to see good people being bullied, so he did this, but
I didn’t expect to collide with Jing Yun’s case, but I need your forgiveness from the City God.”
I nodded secretly to Dai Mei. This girl immediately blamed Jing Yun for the whole matter. She is indeed thick and black, and is the material to be an official.
"Zhou Xuan has been having conflicts for a long time. Even if you don't tell me, I know it. But this Zhou Xuan is different from what you think. There are people above her. Even if I want to restrain her, the resistance is relatively large. Besides, she comes to me again and again.
Here, we have not forgotten to do some good deeds for the good people in the city, so for the occasional small mistakes, we still mainly serve as reminders, what do you think?" Yi Yang asked calmly.
When I heard this, I thought, you cunning old city god, what do you mean by being a good person and doing good deeds? That's called bribery!
Dai Mei was also cunning, and she also understood that Zhou Xuan had given Yi Yang a lot of money, so he turned a blind eye. It was hard to say whether there was actually someone from above.
"It turns out that Lord City God has been worried about it for a long time, and he is also worried about it. Dai Mei has a plan here that can solve Lord City God's worries. How about Lord City God taste it first?" Dai Mei said with a smile.
"Oh? That's fine. Let's talk about it." Yi Yang mainly greeted me, the cave master, for dinner, but for Dai Mei, he waited for her to make an offer. This old cunning guy is also very greedy.
Dai Mei was well aware of the business matters, and immediately told the details layer by layer, including how to use business matters to check and balance Zhou Xuan's expansion, and then talked about the current scale and military strength of Tianyi Cave Mansion.
, and make it clear whether he will do something "good and good" when he goes to the city in the future.
What she said sounds like it is beneficial to the other party, but in fact the benefits for our side are actually greater.
"Haha... Okay, you have such a heart. I, Yi Yang, would like to thank you on behalf of our Nan City City God. Comparing my feelings, how can you Tianyi Cave Mansion need our City City God's support? Everyone here is trustworthy, so feel free to be bold.
"Yi Yang is also an old fox and knows the ways of officialdom. After listening, he still doesn't understand. He asked us what we need his help for.
Except for the ghost king who brought us in just now, there are no other ghosts in Yi Yang's place. Dai Mei thought for a while and then told me what I had discussed with her on the way: "I hope the city god can give us a name and give us a name."
There are some sites that are convenient for expanding our operations. With capital, we can make a difference. If not, Zhou Xuan would be making noises every day asking for an army to attack our Tianyi Cave Mansion. What should we do?"
"That's true, but Dalong County already has a county-level city god. You don't have many cave ghosts. How can Zhou Xuan give in to you?" Yi Yang hesitated and looked at Dai Mei with some doubts.
"Gathering less will lead to more. Since there are so many ghosts dissatisfied with Zhou Xuan's military administration, those ghosts can't always wander outside. Why don't Lord City God give my cave master the status of City God? Even if it is a small county or town, we have our own territory."
If we open up, taxes will also be paid according to the rules and regulations of the City God. What do you think, sir?" Dai Mei said.
"You want the title of City God? Do you really have this ability? You need to do a lot of good people and good deeds in the city!" Yi Yang thought about it, and his meaning was quite naked and clear. If he didn't have enough money, he couldn't open it.
Dai Mei saw that Yi Yang had begun to think about it and knew that the matter was almost over, so she said: "City God, if Zhou Xuan hadn't had our cave master's money, he would have been unable to make ends meet due to expansion. City God wouldn't believe in our strength, right?
?”
"Okay, there is a place called Water Town in Dalong County. Let's divide it from there. You can take over the civil servants and generals with the edict. How about running it from there? But the recent gap of one billion in our city is not
I know it's inconvenient..." Yi Yang gritted his teeth, as if this decision was quite difficult.
There is a Yin River in Water Town. The last time I used the Yin Yang Order, I fell into the river and crossed it. In the end, Chen Shanyun pulled me up. This is not too close to Dalong County, but it is at the same location as Dongfu.
, so it does not count as dividing Dalong County.
After all, Yi Yang's skills are not bad and he won't let me do whatever I want. A small town town god sold it for one billion and he still made a profit.
It was obvious that I wanted money, but I also went through the back door*, and everyone got what they needed. I immediately nodded in agreement, and Dai Mei said on my behalf: "This is a matter of course."
After everything ended successfully, we had dinner and it turned out that the time was already past three o'clock. For fear of missing the agreement with the family, Dai Mei and I prepared to say goodbye.
Yi Yang's confidants had already left during the dinner to order seals and documents for me, and they were delivered before we left the house.
There is a seal granted by the City God, a document from the City God, a few black plaques, and a bunch of unknown objects, and above it is a guidebook on how to be a good City God.
I signed my name on two copies of the document and made a deposit. After filing it with Yi Yang, everyone said goodbye and left. Of course, the money must be given, so I made a temporary transfer of ten directly to Tiandi Bank.
Billions of gold were given to Yi Yang.
"It's another billion. Several boxes of gems are still mortgaged in the bank, and we owe them again today. Sir Xia Chenghuang, the interest is heavy, and we have to pay it back during the interest-free period." Dai Mei looked at me and said bitterly.
"Don't call me City God. It's not easy to be a City God. Let's check the situation first and then talk about it. It's up to you to take care of everything. I'll take the blame." I also smiled bitterly. How should I talk to Mrs. Qi when I go back? This money is not
It's all for nothing, I owe so much, it's really hard to explain.
After leaving the door, I took the ghost generals with me and asked Chen Shanyun to speed up. But Jing Yun saw Jing Yun at the door and chased after me, as if he wanted to ask me what he said to Yi Yang.
This guy was really haunted, but I still patiently stopped, took out a bunch of City God's documents, and started to talk to him about how to check and balance Zhou Xuan. Jing Yun was immediately happy, looked at me differently, and was ready to ask for help.
Join me on the righteous side.
I think Jing Yun is indeed very powerful, but I'm a little worried about his temper. I don't know if Master can brainwash him so that he won't be so stubborn?
After thinking about it, I decided to let him follow him to Water Town first, and then we would discuss it in detail in the cave. If it was not appropriate, we would just spend some money on it.
And it was getting late after all, so we needed to go back in a hurry.
When passing by Nanshi Chenghuang, the two black and white impermanence did not dare to say anything. After all, Nanchenghuang had been released and I also had an official position, so I could go without any hindrance.
It was already three hours later when we arrived at the Sixiaoxian Taoist Temple. The sun was about to set, and the ground was so red it looked like blood.
Upon closer inspection, there were actually several pools of blood splashed on the ground of the Four Immortals.
