Chapter 398 The old man complained

The border city of Huazhou was established in a stumbling way. Huazhou border city was in charge of trade affairs in the Western Regions, and established a municipal supervisor. Jiang Anyi also served as the municipal chief, Shi Mingyu and deputy chief Yu Qingshan. The border city was planned to build two people to get up early and complete the construction of the border city on time in the heavy and multi-controlled elbows. Jiang Anyi naturally had to reward merits. Everyone knew that the border city was a place of wealth. Zhang Wenjin originally wanted to occupy the position of deputy chief, but was pushed back by Jiang Anyi. The clerks he chose were also diligent and honest figures in the government office.

Shi Mingyu and Yu Qingshan have to visit the venue from time to time every day. Seeing that there were only a few shops in Ruoda’s border exchanges, there were not many people coming to discuss business. Shi Mingyu and Yu Qingshan were both worried. Two-thirds of the month passed, and the tax bank he received was less than 100,000. Lord Jiang had to ask for at least 300,000 yuan in tax bank every month. How can he pay the payment to the adults?

In the government office, Jiang Anyi listened to Shi Mingyu's remarks quietly. He knew this young man three years older than him very well. He was tough and intelligent, down-to-earth and willing to work hard. He would never come to him to tell him. After Shi Mingyu finished speaking, Jiang Anyi smiled and comforted: "Mingyu, you did a good job. It's not your fault that there are not many merchants in the border market. Please wait with confidence. I'll find a way."

After Shi Mingyu left, Jiang Anyi fell into deep thought. In early August, the merchants and merchants who had transited to the Western Regions should have known it. However, there were policies and countermeasures from the superiors. Jiang Anyi asked Yan Yi, the Sihu Army, and there were few people who came to him to apply for a Western Regions trade license certificate. None of the Liu family, Lin family, Liu family, and Lu family followed the official documents of the governor's yamen. On the contrary, the Han Mansion of Wenjin County and Anxi Nanhua Mansion applied for a trade license according to the notice. Half of the goods transported by the two families were stationed in the border exchanges, and half of them paid the transit fee before leaving the country.

Jiang Anyi held the armrest of the chair tightly with his hand. The tiger did not show his power. These people regarded themselves as sick cats. The one who ignored the official documents of the prefecture was definitely a powerful family. The commerce of the Western Regions was a piece of fat, and most of the top ten families were involved. Nearly half of the ministers above the Golden Palace were involved. If they wanted to strictly control the commerce of the Western Regions, they would definitely offend all officials in the world again, and the rich businessmen.

The fate of the lonely minister is often sad. The criticism of thousands of people makes money. Once the new king ascended the throne, it is very likely to be used to calm the grievances of officials. Jiang Anyi was also afraid. He was only twenty-four years old and had a long-term future. There was no need to sail against the current. Therefore, Jiang Anyi wanted to use the honey fruit business to exchange for the support of Huazhou vendors for the border market. However, he underestimated the greed of human nature. These people ate meat, soup, and finally wanted to take the pot away.

Do not do to others what you do not want others to do to you. The greed and contempt of these people aroused Jiang Anyi's anger. His sword eyebrows flew up, and his wing-like scars flashed slightly red. With a "click", the handrail was cut off. The letter to the Anxi Grand Governor Yang Xiangliang had been sent, asking him to send someone to block the trade route from Huazhou to Bingzhou. There was a transaction of 800,000 taels. Jiang Anyi believed that Governor Yang would help.

The secretly sneaking to Bingzhou was blocked, and the rest was to close the door and release the dogs, and never allow goods that had not applied for a trade license certificate. Hua Sima had 3,000 soldiers, but most of these people were local soldiers, and it was okay to maintain local order on weekdays. If they were to investigate the caravan, they would probably be allowed to get some money.

There is also the army of General Zhuangwu Mei Hongmin, who was under the leadership of the army, but the military discipline of Mei Hongmin was loose, and even incidents like Zhou Zongxuan were killed and made great contributions. Jiang Anyi could think of it with his heel that once these people were allowed to investigate, he would definitely take the opportunity to extort money and blackmail his property, and he would be affected by it.

The more than a hundred personal guards led by An Yong were trustworthy, but Huazhou was so big, with more than ten ways to leave the country, and this little person alone could not block the loophole. When he was in a dilemma, the drums suddenly sounded loudly, and Jiang Anyi was stunned. Who was beating the drums? A minor official ran in and reported: "Report to the master, someone in front of the government office beat the drum and complained about his grievances."

The governor's position is to clear the country and to assess officials, announce Dehua, ease the people of Qi, encourage the country to teach agriculture, inspect the county, and observe the suffering of the people. To put it bluntly, the governor is not a close official, but only cares about the officials. Under normal circumstances, the governor does not care about the people. When encountering criminal and imprisonment, the county magistrate generally decides on his own. Only punishments of exile or above must be reviewed and approved by the governor.

Although there are drums of injustice in front of the government office, they are usually just decorations. You should know that if you surpass the superiors, regardless of whether they are reasonable or not, you will first hit the thirty-pin-killing sticks. This is not something that ordinary people can stand. But there are exceptions in everything, and the situation where the people sued the official is an exception. When Jiang Anyi was in Fuluo County, he was sued by the Su family and the Zhang family to Lizhou Prefecture. Unexpectedly, this rare thing actually made Jiang Anyi catch up with two trips, one was the defendant and the other was the judge. Life is sometimes very interesting.

In Jiang Anyi's heart, he always had a dream of being a clean official who distinguished right from wrong and ruled for the people. When he was in Fuluo County, the former magistrate Yan and Xu Mingyuan bullied the people. After Jiang Anyi took office, he overturned the two of them, destroyed the Su family, killed Zhang Putian, and then quelled the thieves in Huangyang Mountain, and replaced clerks and yamen runners. The people were grateful, and the bullies, gangsters and inferior officials were frightened by Jiang Anyi's power, and they were all silent, fearing that they would breathe a little louder, which would attract the attention of the great master and lose his head.

For more than a year when Jiang Anyi was appointed as the magistrate of Fuluo County, the county did not close its doors at night and did not pick up any remains on the road. Jiang Anyi only heard the sound of praise of virtue. The injustice in front of the yamen was covered with dust, and the heroes were useless. Jiang Anyi was secretly proud and couldn't help but feel a little regretful.

Today, the drum sounded as Jiang Anyi's itchy spot. Jiang Anyi repeatedly said: "Go to the hall and bring complaints." Let's put the problem aside for the time being. Finding someone who is interested in doing it in advance will definitely be beneficial to physical and mental health.

The drum sounded, and the government office was shocked. The old clerk sighed, "How many years have there been no one who beats the drum and makes an accusation." He talked about the last time when the drum sounded the drum sounded. The old officials argued about "Five or Six Years of Fengle", "Is it the case of Zhang Xiucai killing his wife or the case of Li butcher selling his daughter", showing off his old qualifications in the respectful eyes of the newcomer.

There must be a major case when the drums of grievances sounded, otherwise who would have asked the Thirty-stop to relieve the itch? The officials and clerks came to the court to hear the trial, and those who had something to do were postponed to see what happened. After a while, in addition to the yamen runners on the stands, they actually squeezed into the forty or fifty people watching the fun, and even Zhang Biejia was alarmed. He was not watching the fun, but he was afraid that something would happen. If he was not present, governor Jiang made an unfavorable judgment.

Although the matter in Washington has come to an end, Zhang Biejia always feels that governor Jiang is still investigating something. There are dozens of new people in the Sasy orphanage in the state. Now the honey fruit business is booming. Jiang Anyi has the first words to hire people in the hospital to do things first, so these children are very busy all day long.

Honey fruit is a business that makes money, so Zhang Wenjin will certainly not let it go. Huafu’s own farm planted a lot of fruits and vegetables, which happened to be used to make honey fruits. Zhang Wenjin gathered a share, and the investment of twenty taels of silver was probably at least 2,000 taels of silver. Everyone was tacitly informed, and they gave it with confidence. They took money and people to eliminate disasters. Therefore, Zhang Wenjin had one ear in the government office during this period, and ran to the government office after a riot, for fear that something would happen again. Not only did the silver be soaked, they were also implicated.

Old Man Tian was trembling all over. He had never even entered the county government office in his life. He was the first trip to the Huiye Mansion. Wuyun County was 83 miles away from Huaye Mansion. Old Man Tian walked for two days. On the way, he met a kind-hearted person and took a delivery cart to the city. He asked about the location of the government office, found a ghostwriter on the West Street, and spent 8 cents to write sealed paper. He had no money to stay in the store. The cat was confused in the corner of the alley for half a night. He got up early and ate two vegetable leaves and cakes, and walked back and forth in the state office for more than ten times. He had been playing hard for several times, but he didn't dare to go up the steps and beat the drums.

After an hour and a half, I wanted to turn around and go home several times. When I thought of the grandsons at home, I could not get the ten taels of silver to redeem. The sun was hanging high, and the sweat on my head rolled straight. Old Man Tian made up his mind. Anyway, he was a death, so he simply died outside and avoided the family burying him. He walked up the steps staggeringly. In the surprised gaze of the yamen runners, Old Man Tian settled down, picked up the drum beat, and spread his anger out loudly through the drum sound.

Looking at the old man trembling and kneeling on the ground, Jiang Anyi said in a harmonious voice: "Old man, don't be afraid, what's wrong with you? Even though I am the governor of Huazhou, I will definitely take charge of you."

Before Old Man Tian could speak, Zhang Wenjin, who was sitting beside him, said first: "Sir, I will sue you beyond my level, and you will be responsible for the law."

Old Man Tian gritted his teeth and was ready to get thirty-year-old. He knew this when he came.

Jiang Anyi looked at the kneeling old man, with thin body and most of his hair turned white, and felt pity in his heart and asked, "Brother-in-law, how old are you this year?"

"Little old man... old man, he is fifty... eight years old this year." Old man Tian said tremblingly.

Jiang Anyi sighed: "I think you are nearly sixty years old. If you are old, these thirty boards will be temporarily recorded. If what you sued is wrong, you will be beaten to one another."

Zhang Wenjin said in anti-voice: "Master Jiang, this is not consistent with the law. If you sue the master without any reprimand, the drums in this government office will be broken soon."

"Oh, Lord Zhang means that there are many wrongs among the people, but the people are afraid of killing Wei Ban for thirty years and dare not sue him." Jiang Anyi had seen Zhang Wenjin feel uncomfortable, and was disturbed by him in the case of Huazheng. He had long wanted to attack him. Now that Zhang Wenjin stopped him in the court again, Jiang Anyi couldn't help but get angry.

Zhang Wenjin rolled his beard calmly and said, "Sir, the law is strict, so how can I change it without authorization? I just said bluntly according to the law."
