After hearing what Li You said, Magistrate Chen's face turned red with anger, and he said angrily: "Do you think I am such a person?"
Li You calmed down and thought about it carefully. It was impossible... The county magistrate was a man who was proud of his reputation and strived for promotion. How could he do such a shameless thing just to ask for more money?
In his relationship with Yinzi, Mr. Chen may be a slight but he is definitely not an enemy. It is impossible for anyone to suddenly change their outlook on life, values, and morals in just two days when nothing major happens in the outside world.
stop.
Although it is a taboo in the officialdom to pester his superiors for explanations, since Li You gave his beautiful widowed cousin from his mother's family, who was separated by several layers of blood, to the magistrate as a concubine, he consciously became a relative, not an ordinary superior or subordinate.
I couldn't help but ask: "Excuse me for being rude. Why? I dare to ask the county magistrate to tell me."
Chen Zhixian took a sip of tea and said: "It's not because of me, but Yao Miaozhu of the Huangshenpo Temple said that he was willing to donate five thousand silver and begged the government not to deal with this matter and let the city's scoundrels rush to buy raw silk."
Li You was dumbfounded. There may be people who take the initiative to commit suicide, but are there any people who want to cut off their own livelihood? Yao Miaozhu is the president of the silk weaving industry association in this county. The five thousand he donated must also be silk weaving machines.
Households collected money. To put the current situation together, first, there is a shortage of raw silk in the south of the Yangtze River, and colleagues in the prefectural city gather scoundrels to come to the county market to grab raw silk; then, the silk weaving industry in the county gives money to the county government, begging the government to indulge their colleagues in the prefectural city, no matter what
Since his own production raw materials were snapped up, even if Lei Feng was reincarnated, he would not do such a good thing?
"Then Yao Miaozhu also specifically said that this matter cannot be leaked. If it spreads, five thousand taels of silver will stop it." Chen Zhixian added: "Because it is related to your inspection of the West River, I called you to inform you about this matter.
"
Speaking of five thousand taels, Li You discovered another strange thing. Even though they could buy things with just a few hundred taels, they actually paid five thousand taels and sent them directly to the magistrate. This not only shows their determination, but also their determination.
The profit won't be small, but I can't guess what the benefits are behind this shady situation.
Li You was still frowning and thinking hard: "This is really hard to understand."
Chen Zhixian said disdainfully: "When you become an official, you should have a big picture in mind. Don't be like a petty official who is calculating and studying. In fact, there is no need to worry about it. It is nothing more than businessmen chasing profits and scheming, not to mention business.
Raw silk has nothing to do with the general situation of the county government, and it is not about robbing homes, killing people, and setting fires. Why should you and I bother about it? Even if you don't understand, it is always a good thing for the government to get an extra five thousand tax dollars. No matter how they do it, they are still clowns."
Five thousand taels is not a small amount, and Magistrate Chen is not coveting the money to enrich his own pockets, but it is also a political achievement to be able to pay taxes easily for nothing, so why not do it. The annual quota for Xujiang tax banks is 120,000 taels (excluding
Grain), five thousand taels is equivalent to 4%. Although under the state and dynasty system, the money and grain items in the local assessment only need to meet the quota, and it is never encouraged to collect more, so as not to create the impression that the court is exploiting the common people. But in fact
According to the unspoken rules, overcharging and overpaying will always result in bonus points.
The county magistrate has already given face to explain to such an extent, what else can Li You say? He can only let him go, but he can still fight for his release no matter what. Now all parties are begging him to let him go, and they must fully communicate their feelings to everyone.
time, so...
Thinking of this, Li You begged: "If you dare to be bold again, please ask the county magistrate for permission to delay release for two days. This matter will be within one or two days."
It’s a pity that Inspector Li just seemed to be admonishing the county magistrate not to support bandits and respect themselves...
Chen Zhixian, whose words were still ringing in his ears, knew what this guy wanted as soon as he heard it. He slapped the case and said: "How can it be unreasonable? You want to support the bandits... take the bandits with you and respect yourself and sell them for a price?"
Li You lowered his face and said seriously: "Your Majesty, please don't misunderstand me. Am I such a person? I caught the criminals this afternoon, and countless local people lined the street to cheer and praise them. Just the next night, I let them go without interrogation and continued to cause trouble. Isn't that right?"
It's not like child's play. I dare to ask the county magistrate, where is the prestige of the government? How do the common people view the government? Moreover, I have only heard that arresting people late will cause trouble, but I have never heard that releasing people late will cause trouble. So you must wait a little.
We won’t let him go until the limelight has passed.”
To be honest, the reason Li You found was very concerned about Magistrate Chen, and he was indeed one of the people who knew the Magistrate best in the county.
Sure enough, after hearing this, Magistrate Chen waved his hand and said: "It's up to you, as long as you can handle Yao Miaozhu." In his opinion, these are simply insignificant things.
It was getting late into the night when we were talking, and when Li You was about to leave.
Chen Zhixian then ordered: "There have been two things to do recently. Lu Shangshu is going back to Beijing. Let's not mention it. Tomorrow, the old magistrate will send his colleagues and several mages to our county to investigate the matter of praying for rain. It is not necessary.
You showed up. So tomorrow you will wait in the county first, and then we will go together to greet you when we arrive."
Li You agreed and left.
After leaving the official business, he was busy with personal matters. After leaving the county office, Li You gradually became excited thinking that he would no longer have to worry about Mu Mu's sex tonight. He first sent his men to find a free squad room to sleep randomly, and then he entered the alley of the official residence.
, he went back to his apartment to find a concubine. After all, he was still a seventeen or eighteen-year-old man who was at his peak of vitality and had a taste for marrow.
He rushed through the door excitedly, and regardless of Xiaozhu's disdainful gaze, Li You picked up the concubine Jin who came out to greet her. As he walked into the house, he said in his mouth: "Little beauty, I have come to love you especially.
"
Jin Baoer was heard squirming in Li You's arms: "Master, I don't want it."
"You don't want it, I want it." Li You smiled evilly.
"My family is having their period today, do you want me too?"
Li You was stunned. Some people thought that it was not as good as God's. If it were replaced with a piece of wood, it would still be wood.
After having no choice but to wash up and go to bed, Jin Baoer said in Li You's ear: "Master, can't help but go to the wing to find Xiaozhu?"
"I can't bear to destroy the seedlings." Li You sighed.
"Actually, I have another place to go."
"where?"
"Isn't it true that I still have an old lover, Sister Li?"
Li You was so happy that he put his arms around Jin Baoer and said: "According to this, Master, there are many places I can go to. There is no prostitute in the city who doesn't welcome me. Even if it is just for fun, I can still live in all the streets and alleys."
of."
Jin Baoer turned over and lay on Li You's chest and said, "I'm not kidding, Sister Li..." He hesitated to speak.
"What happened to her? Did she come asking for help again?"
Jin Baoer hesitated and said: "That's not what I'm talking about...she is really affectionate towards me, and I really like him in her heart."
Li You, who has always been slow to feelings, was stunned. After a while, he smiled and said: "Don't make fun of this matter, I won't be fooled."
Jin Baoer said aggrievedly: "The slave family really didn't lie. It's true. It's just that she has a strong temper in her heart and won't say anything. When she came last time, the master was not here. When the slave family asked her, she didn't deny it even though she was evasive.
In the eyes of the slave family, any request for help or help is just because she wants to get close to the master, and the slave family understands this."
Li You felt mixed emotions in his heart. It was the first time in his life that he received a message that he was liked.
In the world of his previous life, the word "like" was really not a big deal, and the word "love" was overflowing. At that time, he was an ordinary introverted otaku who secretly liked many people.
I also expected that they would like me, but I knew in my heart that it was all just imagination, and in the end, I died before I could find my own happiness.
He was reincarnated as an outstanding actor in this life, performing one life drama after another in the costume studio, and he was very devoted and selfless. He felt that there must be scripts such as emotional dramas in dramas, but it seems that
Don't take it seriously, just try your best to play a good role.
At this time, the concubine with whom he had the closest relationship suddenly told him that a certain woman, the woman with whom he had the closest relationship, really liked you.
