Chapter 772: Durant loves to drink foot water again (2)
The martial artist fled back in embarrassment and told the master everything. The master had no choice but to report the truth to Dulan.
Du Lan said angrily: "Why are these Jianghu people so arrogant? The Qingjiang Mansion under my governance must first ban martial arts. No martial arts hero or Jianghu hero can destroy the stable life of the people in this way. He will never be allowed to control the people and fight with others.
We rode together to chase the enemy, I was dignified
How can there be such lawless madmen in the territory of the Holy Han!" The master said to himself, Sir, if you are lustful, you should stop using your troops and mobilize the people. What if you provoke someone you shouldn't provoke? It can be seen that Dulan looked angry,
The master couldn't dissuade him, so he had to go with him and lead the government officials to chase Zhang Xiaowu.
"If it weren't for the eighty taels of silver a year, how could I have followed this kind of prefect who only flatters horses and relies on his power? Alas!" the master thought helplessly.
Ten years ago, a poor boy, Du Lan, was admitted to the Royal Academy. Later, due to the Gu Yong administration, all the colleges founded by Zhang Xiaowu were canceled and the students were merged into the Taiyuan Academy. Dulan also successfully became an Imperial College student.
Although he was born as a commoner and had a poor family background, he immediately befriended a scholar from a noble family who was not good at studying but came from a wealthy family after entering the Taiyuan Academy. He often helped others with suggestions, flattery and cheated on exams. Due to Dulan's superb cheating skills, more and more students were poor in studies.
However, he became friends with a nobleman from a well-off family, and through the influence of the nobleman, Dulan became a lecturer at Taiyuan College a few years later.
After becoming a lecturer at Taiyuan University, Dulan became even more unscrupulous, especially the unskilled young masters who passed him to get into Taiyuan University. Other lecturers despised his behavior and impeached them one after another, but there was insufficient evidence. And there was no one standing behind Dulan.
Because of the small power of the gentry, Prime Minister Gu Yong needed to rely on the gentry to govern, so he temporarily turned a blind eye to Du Lan, and later appointed Du Lan as the magistrate of Longyang County.
When Du Lan became the county magistrate, he vigorously supported the brothel and brothel business within his jurisdiction, so that Longyang County was even more feasting and feasting than Longdu City, especially the amount of commercial taxes. The annual tax revenue of Longyang County was equal to that of the other five cities in Longdu Prefecture.
The total county tax revenue, Du Lan was promoted from the seventh grade county magistrate smoothly, to the third grade in two years, and now he has become the fifth grade magistrate. It can be said that his official career is unparalleled.
But obviously, Dulan's pursuit of the enemy was just a form of catharsis. They could not catch up with Zhang Xiaowu and others, so they returned to the county seat and rested for another night, causing the county magistrate to entertain them for another day.
He slept until noon the next day, and Magistrate Du got up from the bed of a brothel girl, reluctantly got back on the road, and drove three days to Shuangyan Town. At this time, Shuangyan Town was in the midst of a demon-killing convention, and martial arts masters from all over the world gathered, and the people
On the contrary, he paid no attention to the prefect who was beating gongs and drums.
Du Lan asked the people to stand on both sides of the road, but the people of Shuangyan Town did not stand on both sides, the road was also crowded. Looking at the forty or fifty people from this sect, and the twenty or thirty people from that gang, Governor Du
There is no place to vent his official power, so he can only vent his anger to Li Zheng. The so-called Li Zheng is equivalent to Shuangyan Town
The mayor of the town, that is, Nie Feng, the leader of Nie Gang. But neither the left waiter nor the right waiter came. Magistrate Du waited in the cheapest inn all afternoon like a waiter, and finally received the news - Shuangsi
It's the time of the demon slaying convention in town. Sir, if you have nothing else to do, please leave quickly, lest you be killed as a corrupt official by the Jianghu people.
Du Lan was so angry that he had nowhere to express his anger, so he asked: "Master, is there a local brothel?"
The master pulled the shopkeeper over, and the shopkeeper quickly said that there were only a thousand people in Shuangyan Town, so how could there be a brothel? We were all fellow villagers, your wife was my sister, and my wife was his cousin. The relationship was too close, especially in Shuangyan Town.
All women are martial arts practitioners, and they are no more gentle than bandits when beating up their husbands.
"It is virtue for a woman not to have talent, so there is no reason for a woman to practice martial arts." Dulan said angrily, "This trend cannot last long!"
This was heard by Zhu Shengnan who happened to be passing by. She rolled her eyes and secretly poured strong laxatives into Dulan's wine glass. That night, Dulan almost lived in the toilet and even had his intestines pulled out.
He was sent to Qingjiang Mansion for treatment overnight by his subordinates. The doctor said: "Sir, you are not acclimatized normally, but you have been poisoned. Moreover, this person is a master of poison. He does not want to poison you to death, but to poison you to death."
It would be better to die. I think people who can use poison like this are people who cannot be offended in the world. Did you offend someone?"
Dulan thought about it and felt that the person who could harm him must be Li Zheng Nie Feng from Shuanglian Town. He gritted his teeth and said: "These Jianghu people are really a cancer for the country and must be eradicated."
After half a month of training, Dulan was finally able to be officially promoted to officialdom.
As the so-called three things for a new official to do when he takes office, in order to show his authority, Dulan ordered the Qingjiang government to ban weapons and blades. Residents are only allowed to have daggers, scissors, kitchen knives, hatchets and sickles in their homes. All other knives are turned in. These are prohibited weapons.
make.
As soon as the ban on weapons was issued, the common people complained, and people in the rivers and lakes also reacted violently, especially the Shuilong Gang because they were engaged in water transportation. Nowadays, there are many river pirates in the world, and the Shuilong Gang cannot survive without weapons. Since ancient times, the people have not fought with the officials, and the Shuilong Gang has
Gang leader Ximen Tie temporarily asked his subordinates to hide their weapons and not display them. He just said that you should wait for the good show.
Du Lan is best at opening brothels. Unfortunately, Qingjiang Prefecture is close to Lingnan, the land is barren and there is no deep-water port. In order to prevent pirates, the city was far away from the sea, and there was almost no commercial development prospect. The two biggest specialties of Qingjiang Prefecture are seafood.
The second is mountain goods, but both require convenient transportation, but transportation in Qingjiang Prefecture is inconvenient. As for the brothel business, it is even more sluggish. The local poor cannot afford to go there. The local rich have deep connections with the Shuilong Gang. Dulan offended Shuilong when he arrived.
help.
Soon, bandits broke out in Qingjiang Mansion. Many people were plundered and killed because they had no weapons and could not resist. The people immediately cursed Dulan for his incompetence. Some people even knelt down at the gate of the government office and cried, begging Dulan to leave Qingjiang Mansion. Some people threatened Dulan.
He was a bandit pretending to be a bandit, with the purpose of making the people of Qingjiang Mansion unable to resist when they encountered bandits. The next day, the bandits actually attacked the city, so Dulan hid in the government office and did not dare to go out. In the end, the master asked Ximen Tie, the leader of the Shuilong Gang, to apologize. Dulan was good at it.
After joining the camp, he immediately became a supporter of the Shuilong Gang and even served as the master of ceremonies for the leader of the Shuilong Gang's birthday.
A fifth-grade prefect actually took the initiative to serve as a birthday emcee for Jianghu people. Only then did Ximen Tie let him go with satisfaction. Dulan quickly colluded with Ximen Tie. Soon, the Shuilong Gang assisted him in eliminating bandits in the six counties of Qingjiang Prefecture.
Later, Ximen Tie said that there was another bandit den that refused to obey the government. This place was Shuanggan Town, an important north-south transportation area controlled by the Shuanggan Gang.
"Quickly lead the government officials to eradicate the Shuangsi Gang, and also ask the Shuilong Gang for assistance." Du Lan immediately made his decision as soon as he thought about the revenge of that day.
Under the joint strangulation of the Shuilong Gang and the government, Shuangyan Town was quickly conquered. Nie Feng, the leader of the Shuangxiang Gang, and the remaining 500 tribesmen were forced to flee Qingjiang Mansion. After careful consideration, Nie Feng decided to lead his tribe north to find a piece of land.
A new pure land. At the same time, Zhang Xiaowu and the others took a sea ship from Haidi County to the port of Lucheng in Youzhou and arrived at the boundary of Mu Xia Ming in Youzhou.
