Chapter 593

In the Jinchuan County Government Office, the county magistrate looked at the flying pigeon in his hand passing the letter and was silent for a long time.

Cai Liuyang and Zhou Youda were similar. They were both well-known local talents and were awarded Jinshi at a young age.

Both of them have ancestors who were officials, and neither of them were high officials.

In fact, strictly speaking, Cai Liuyang was worse off than Zhou Youda.

He was more than ten years older than Zhou Youda. After passing the imperial examination, he also passed the Jinshi examination.

In the feudal period, scholars were a scarce resource.

The scholar can be regarded as the number one person in every country in the country.

There are even fewer people to be promoted.

Passing the exam is equivalent to having the "ticket" to become an official.

As for Jinshi, that is even more remarkable.

Although there is only one level difference between the Judicial Examination and the Jinshi Examination, the degree of difficulty and the gap between them are vastly different.

The imperial court held a national examination every three years, and each time only more than 200 Jinshi were admitted in Dakang.

The intensity of competition is at least equivalent to that of Jin Feng's former top scorer in the college entrance examination in a prefecture-level city.

Everyone is a proud son of heaven.

In the early days of the founding of Dakang, a person who passed the Jinshi examination could become a county magistrate at the worst possible age.

Some outstanding ones could even become county guards that year.

And the room for growth is extremely large.

It's a pity that the class structure in Dakang is so serious now. It has been almost five years since Cai Liuyang passed the Jinshi examination, and there is still no real vacancy.

Until he met a dandy from a big family in the capital.

In order to join this family, Cai Liuyang sold a lot of his ancestral land in his hometown to raise money to buy beautiful women and various rare toys as gifts.

His money was not in vain, the other party actually got him a real job as a county magistrate.

But the price is that he must serve this family for ten years.

Cai Liuyang understood that if he agreed to this request, he would become a puppet dedicated to doing dirty things for the other party.

But he also understood very well that the class solidification in Dakang would become more and more serious, and it would become increasingly difficult for students from poor families to get ahead.

This may be his only chance in this life.

In addition, he still had a trace of luck in his heart.

The great road is fifty, Tianyan is forty-nine, and one of them escapes.

There are no absolutes in the world.

Although it is difficult for a poor family to produce a noble son, it is not without any chance.

It is not difficult for the son of a prime minister to become a county governor, but it is almost impossible for the son of a prime minister to continue to be prime minister.

There will be fights among the powerful, and there will always be losers who will be eliminated.

This also gives people like Cai Liuyang a glimmer of hope for advancement.

His grandfather was a county magistrate, so he had the opportunity to study under famous teachers and become a county magistrate.

If he becomes the county magistrate, his son might be able to become the county governor.

If his grandson lives up to his expectations, he may be able to take another step forward.

With this idea in mind, Cai Liuyang finally agreed despite knowing that the other party was using him.

Then he was arranged by the other party to go to Jinchuan County.

Jinchuan is the fiefdom of Qinghou, and it is home to a giant crocodile like Jin Feng. It is much more difficult for Cai Liuyang to take control of Jinchuan County than for Xie Xiguang to take over Guangyuan City.

However, Cai Liuyang was not angry or sad, but rather thankful.

Jinchuan can be said to be the territory of the Qing family. It will definitely take a lot of effort for the other party to send him to Jinchuan to be the county magistrate.

After spending resources, you will not give up easily.

Therefore, Cai Liuyang believed that the other party would definitely let him gain a foothold in Jinchuan before letting him do things.

But who knew that the other party would give orders so quickly.

And they will attack Jin Feng's base camp right from the start.

Cai Liuyang greeted the other party's eight generations of ancestors in his heart countless times.

But there was no turning back for him.

The other party can send him to the position of county magistrate, or he can get rid of him.

You don't even need to use other means, as long as you don't support him, the Qing family will drive him away.

After thinking over and over again, Cai Liuyang called his confidants brought over from his hometown in Jiangnan.

After plotting all night, the next morning, the confidants took the government officials and set off for Xihewan.

Jinchuan is Jin Feng's hometown, so Xiaoyu and Zhong Ming's team naturally pay close attention to it all the time.

Xiaoyu was wary of Cai Liuyang on the first day he arrived in Jinchuan.

Even though Cai Liuyang has been acting normal since he took office, Xiaoyu still did not relax and listed him as a key monitoring target.

Less than an hour after Cai Liuyang's confidants and government officials came out of the county seat, Xiaoyu, who was far away in Xihewan, received the news.

The news not only reported that the government officials were leaving the city, but also found out exactly what they were doing when they left the city.

Cai Liuyang's confidant will naturally not be revealed, but there is only one confidant and he doesn't even know the way to Xihewan, so he naturally needs help.

Xiaoyu's eyeliners are everywhere in and around the Jinchuan County government office. Every word spoken by his confidants will be transmitted to the ears of the Zhongming team word for word within half an hour.

Xiaoyu didn't dare to delay, so she immediately went to find Guan Xiaorou, and at the same time sent someone to the textile factory to call Tang Dongdong.

There was only a wall between Tang Dongdong's factory director's office and Jin Feng's house. When Xiaoyu arrived at Jin Feng's house, Tang Dongdong had already arrived.

"Xiaoyu, what happened again?" Guan Xiaorou asked.

"I just received news that the county magistrate Cai Liuyang sent people to Xihewan." Xiaoyu replied.

"Sure enough, Cai Liuyang is one of theirs too!" A trace of anger flashed in Tang Dongdong's eyes, and he asked, "What does Cai Liuyang want to do?"

"According to the news, Cai Liuyang said that our textile factory, soap factory, and iron smelting factory have illegally hired a large number of workers, and they are going to seize the factory."

Xiaoyu handed Tang Dongdong the note sent back from the county by Zhongming's team.

"Aren't they talking nonsense? All the workers in the factory have been paid, so how can it be illegal employment?" Guan Xiaorou frowned and asked: "In the entire Dakang, who treats the workers better than the boss?"

"It's useless to talk about it now. Since Cai Liuyang dares to send people to find trouble, he must have something to rely on."

Tang Dongdong asked: "Do you know what his reason is?"

"More than a hundred years ago, a great emperor said that businessmen were only interested in making profits without doing work, so he ordered that businessmen should not hire more than thirty workers."

Xiaoyu said: "Before I came here, I went to the legal department to ask, and I did find the records."

"It's the Emperor again!"

Tang Dongdong rubbed the center of his brows irritably.

Dakang was founded for hundreds of years and had dozens of emperors in total.

Every emperor doesn't know how much to say in his lifetime.

Filial piety was the most important thing in the feudal era, and the emperor was no exception.

The current emperor cannot deny what the former emperor said, otherwise it would be unfilial.

There is really nothing wrong with Cai Liuyang's finding trouble with these words.

"Sister-in-law, Director Tang, and Cai Liuyang's henchmen are already on the way. We have to find a way quickly, otherwise they will come and close down the factory, and the consequences will be too serious."

Xiaoyu urged.

Withdraw the Chamber of Commerce and the Escort Bureau from Guangyuan, and the losses will be within the tolerance range.

But if all factories are shut down, the losses will be huge.

"We must not let them close the factory. Brother Feng asked me to take good care of the village before he left. If the factory is closed, I will have no way to explain to Brother Feng when he comes back!"

Tang Dongdong shook his head without hesitation: "But what should we do?"

"Dongdong, I do have a way, but I don't know if it will work..."

Guan Xiaorou said softly.
