After counting everything, the official escorted the living bandits and several cartloads of loot back to Qixia Town.

When the people in the town saw this scene, they were naturally curious and came forward to watch.

"What's going on? Who are these people? What are they pulling on the cart?"

"These don't look like good people. Look, every one of them is wearing shackles and shackles."

"Oh, it turns out they are bandits from Heifeng Village. God opened my eyes, and they were finally eliminated."

"It turns out that it was Li Xiulian who virtuously helped the people to eliminate harm and pacified the Black Wind Village! Hero Li, we love you!"

Soon, they found out the ins and outs of the story through inquiring. They spread the word and everyone praised it endlessly.

Xiang Nan couldn't help but be very happy when he heard the cheers from the crowd. He stood on the carriage and waved frequently, enjoying the feeling of being the center of attention.

…

Surrounded by the people, the motorcade arrived at the Yamen.

Lou Zhixian couldn't help but feel overjoyed when he saw that Black Wind Village had really been wiped out. The first boss was in chains, the second boss, and the third boss were all dead, and all the minions were either dead or disabled.

Seeing five carts full of loot, he felt even more happy. In recent months, Qixia Town's finances have been very tight, and they can hardly pay out food and wages.

If these trophies are not recovered by the owner, all of them can be returned to the county treasury. In this way, the county government's finances will be greatly relieved.

Killing two birds with one stone, Lou Zhixian looked at Xiang Nan and smiled even happier.

"Xiulian, Lei is as good as I am." He smiled and said to Xiang Nan, "Sure enough, I didn't look forward to it."

"Uncle, if you have anything to do in the future, please feel free to ask me. My nephew will definitely be at your disposal." Xiang Nan also cupped his hands and smiled.

Although Lou Zhixian is only a seventh-grade official and not of high rank, he is the highest leader of Qixia Town, so he is also called the Parent Official, Bailihou, and Tu Emperor.

The so-called county magistrate who broke the family, the governor who exterminated the family. Xing Captou, Yan Xiaoliu was just a police officer, not an official but a minor official, they were able to show off their power. Even Bai Zhantang and Guo Furong were in awe, not to mention the county magistrate Lou.

.

Therefore, it can be said that being a relative has many benefits for Xiang Nan.

From now on, I dare not say that if I walk sideways in Qixia Town, I will at least give him three points of noodles.

…

Because he wiped out Heifeng Village, Xiang Nan suddenly became a famous person in Qixia Town and even a hundred miles away, and was respectfully called "Hero Li" by many people.

This made Guo Furong envious.

The reason why she traveled around the world was because she hoped to become a hero. Unexpectedly, in the end, she failed to become a hero and became a handyman instead. She didn't know when she would be freed.

But Xiang Nan just wiped out Heifeng Stronghold and became a great hero, praised by everyone. If she had known this, she would have gone to wipe out Heifeng Stronghold.

"Oh, brother Big Mouth is good. He has only learned martial arts for three months and he is able to eliminate harm for the people." Bai Zhantang also sighed, "Compared with you, my brother is really ashamed."

"Old Bai, please don't say that. In fact, I'm still far behind." Xiang Nan said modestly.

In fact, he knew that the reason why Lao Bai did not go to wipe out Heifeng Village was because he hated fighting and killing, and he was not willing to be in the limelight.

Especially since he has a secret in his heart, he will subconsciously avoid all dealings with the government. Therefore, even if he has amazing martial arts, he does not dare to show it off.

"Dazui, you are really a role model for me to learn from." Lu Xiucai said with admiration, "You wiped out the Black Wind Village and benefited the people, and your merits are immeasurable. Unlike me, I have studied the books of sages for so many years, but I have still accomplished nothing."

"Xiucai, don't say that. You are more educated and knowledgeable than me. You will definitely be promoted to an official in the future. And with your character, you will definitely be a good official and benefit the people." Xiang Nan also said

Be humble.

Hearing Xiang Nan say this, Lu Xiucai was very heart-warming.

"Uncle Big Mouth, I must learn from you and become a hero in the future." Mo Xiaobei also said with admiration.

At that time, her great-grandfather also eliminated harm for the people and wiped out bandits, winning praise from all the people, so he founded the Hengshan Sect.

"Xiao Bei, if you want to be a hero, you don't need to set too high goals. Just start from the little things around you. As long as you have good intentions and are willing to help others, sooner or later you will win everyone's respect and become a hero of the generation.

." Xiang Nan smiled.

Xiaobei listened thoughtfully.

Because Xiang Nan wiped out the bandits in Cuiwei Mountain and eliminated a harm to the people within a hundred miles, his reputation grew.

After hearing about his deeds, many people came to Tongfu Inn to support him, which made Tongfu Inn's business boom.

Tong Xiangyu was naturally happy and praised Xiang Nandao with a smile, "Big mouth, you're good at it."

"Thank you, shopkeeper." Xiang Nan also smiled.

…

"Xiangyu, the business is so good now, and there is so much work every day, please give everyone a raise." Lao Bai secretly said to the shopkeeper.

"What, a wage increase?!" When Tong Xiangyu heard this, he felt as if a knife was cutting out his heart, "How can I have money?"

"Just pick at it! No one is blind. There are so many customers every day, and you still say you don't make money. Do you think anyone will believe it?" Bai Zhantang rolled his eyes at her, "Don't forget, they are big mouths.

I don't even ask for ten taels of silver a month, but I'm willing to stay, so don't make me feel too disappointed."

"Then how much do you think it will go up?" Tong Xiangyu thought for a while and asked.

"Xiucai, Xiao Guo and I don't need to raise our wages too high. Five taels of silver is enough." Bai Zhantang suggested, "The salary for Big Mouth should start at least eight taels."

"So many?!" Tong Xiangyu said immediately after hearing this.

"That's more. If you open your eyes and see, most of the customers in our shop now come because of Dazui's fame and cooking skills.

If you don't treat them better, one day they will lose heart and really change jobs, taking all these customers away. By then, you won't even have time to cry." Bai Zhantang taught her a lesson.

Tong Xiangyu hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded, admitting that Bai Zhantang was right.

The business of their store was very poor before, and when business was good, they only made six taels of silver a day. But now they can earn 14 to 50 taels of silver every day, and their profits have increased dozens of times. So the employees' wages should indeed be increased.

Later, Tong Xiangyu announced the salary increase for employees during dinner.

"Guys, our business has been booming in the past two months, thanks to everyone's hard work. Tong Xiangyu is not stingy, and decided to give everyone a salary increase.

Dazui, your monthly salary will be ten taels from now on. Xiucai, Xiao Guo, Lao Bai, your monthly salary will be increased to five taels." Tong Xiangyu announced.

"Thank you, shopkeeper." Xiucai and Lao Bai were very happy.

"Ah, it's so different." Guo Furong said depressedly after hearing this.

There is a difference of twenty times between ten taels and five cents.

"Shopkeeper, I only need five taels of silver. Xiucai, Xiao Guo, Lao Bai, please increase it to two taels of silver." Xiang Nan suggested.
