Chapter 50 Arson

"According to the villain's estimate, this young man must finally discuss with the master when he sees the yamen being broken. If you think of him as a foreigner, who is not familiar with the place, he can't find him even if he wants to find someone to help repair it. When he has no choice, we will give him another step, and then he will be his idle official, and everyone will not violate the river water." The deer-headed rat-headed mouse was called Liu San, who was Liu Sinu's personal master. This man was full of bad water. He followed Ouyang and walked around the first lamp before coming back to report.

Liu Sinu, who is in his forties, has a good look and is teasing the bird in the cage and said, "There is news from Beijing that this kid has no power at all. But I heard that someone is staring at this and don't make things bigger if he does anything. Then add some wages to the people in the yamen so that they can follow us wholeheartedly."

"The little one knows."

"No, Master." A servant ran in in a hurry.

"Palm the mouth." Liu Sinu said calmly.

Liu San immediately gave the servant a mouth: "What's wrong with the master?"

The servant covered his mouth and said, "The little mistake is that the county government is not good."

"What's wrong?"

"There was a fire."

"There is a fire?" Liu Siwo was shocked: "Go and have a look."

When I arrived at the county yamen, the gate was closed and the open fire was no longer visible. I saw some cigarettes coming out of the study. A large group of ordinary people outside the yamen were pointing at the yamen. Liu Si Nu in the distance asked, "What's going on?"

The servant replied: "Just was just on the street when I suddenly heard someone shouting that I had left the water. When I looked back, I saw a big smoke floating out of the yamen. There were some open fires after running closer. The little one would go back and report to the master immediately."

"This trick is really amazing." Liu San said: "Master, this kid is probably not a good guy."

“How to say it?”

"On the Yangping surface, everyone knows that it is the master, you are the one who decides. Who knows who he is? I'm going to set up a fire like this to tell everyone that there is a county magistrate in Yangping."

Liu Sinu smiled softly: "Isn't this a good person? It should be said that a child is eager for success. After staying for a long time, who doesn't know that he is a county magistrate? He can't hold back so quickly and wants to show himself. A young man is a young man, and he will go home."

...

The next day, Liu Sinu knew that she was wrong, and a notice was posted at the yamen: The study house caught fire and all the yamen runners in this county were burned. Within three days, all the registered yamen runners, county magistrates, and county magistrates (Jiankang Prison Chief) went to the yamen to recreate the yamen. If anyone had not arrived, he would be dismissed without authorization.

As the yamen runners, the county magistrates were panicked. Should I go to make a book? If I don’t go to make a book, I will lose my identity. Of course, the Liu family is good for food and drink, but if you lose that identity, will they still give you good food and drink? If they say that they are county magistrates, as long as the Ministry of Documents and Personnel hand over, they will have nothing to do with the court. If they dare to wear clothes from the yamen in the future, they will pretend to be an official. A group of yamen runners surrounded the two and asked, "What should I do? What should I do?"

"Let's go and ask Mr. Liu."

Liu Sinu was also in trouble. Unexpectedly, this boy used such a secret move, and his three sons could not count on him. He could only discuss with Liu San and finally decided to go!

...

"See Lord." A group of yamen runners and county magistrates made an appointment to appear in the court.

Ouyang Zheng put on his official uniform, looked around and asked, "Do you think you are handsome?"

"..." After a while of silence, a yamen runner hummed like a toothache: "Handsome."

"Oh, this kid has vision. What's the name?"

"Zhang Daniu." The yamen runner answered honestly.

"Opin!"

"exist!"

"Make a book for him, he is...will you be a county magistrate or a county magistrate?" Ouyang sat down and asked.

Before he could speak, Ou Ping took the booklet and said, "The county magistrate has a monthly salary of five cents, and the county magistrate has a monthly salary of six cents."

Wow! Everyone was amazed. The salary he had always paid was five times higher. Zhang Daniu immediately shouted: "I am a county magistrate." He knew that the county magistrate was a civil servant.

"Remember it!" Ouyang Xiaomi asked again: "Is this official very kind?"

"Yes!" Almost everyone answered together.

"This..." Ouyang was stunned for a while. Are you too enthusiastic?

Ou Ping reminded on the side: "Sir, there can only be one county magistrate."

Ouyang asked: "What should I do?"

Ou Ping: "Let's talk about it tomorrow?"

Ouyang slapped the exclamation and said, "Get out of the house, and I will discuss this matter tomorrow morning." He did not leave a group of yamen runners and left.

Ou Ping explained: "Not a registered person in the yamen, you must not stay in the yamen unless you have any trouble. Please do whatever you want." After that, he also left, leaving a group of people staring at each other.

Ouyang went to the only clean hut, took off his official uniform and said, "I thought there were a few people who could use it."

"Even if it was used before, it would have been useless after a few years." Ou Ping asked: "Young Master, what should I do now?"

"Let's wait for the Liu family to answer the call." Ouyang smiled: "Of course we can't be idle either."

...

At the end of the next day, no yamen runners arrived. Ouyang knew that the Liu family was going to work with him to a low point, so he was not in a hurry and went out to wander with Ou Ping. After a few days, after looking through some classics, Ouyang had learned about the whole picture of Yang Ping. To be honest, the Song Dynasty was indeed extraordinary, with nearly 20% of the population of the county town, and more than 30 cities with a population of 300,000. Of course, this would not be Yang Ping. (You can go to YY. If there were no foreign invasion, China would have entered the capital society a thousand years earlier.)

Yangping is a medium-sized county town with a population of 50,000, with eight towns and sixty-one villages under its jurisdiction, and a rural population of 200,000. During the Huizong period, the population of the Song Dynasty was nearly 50 million. It is not surprising that Yangping had 250,000 people. Each township had a village chief, a chief of the household, and a chief of the village. There were generally no interference at the village level, either the clan leader like Ouyang was the chief of the lizhi, or some prestigious elders were the judges of daily affairs. Regardless of the household chief, the elders usually did not care about the matter. They could not handle it even if they had any problems.

Ouyang looked at the county annals and smiled, "It seems that a magistrate is actually quite busy."

"What are you talking about by adults?" A young woman in her thirties put the wine and food on the table and said, "I see that adults come to my restaurant to drink every day, so how can they be busy."

"Zhengniang, have a drink together." Ouyang greeted. This Zhenniang is the owner of this Wang family restaurant. Her man's surname is Wang, Eun, it's nonsense. She had already died in the early years. She and her two friends and a chef supported this restaurant that was neither good nor bad.

"Zhengniang doesn't dare to drink it."Zhengniang smiled and looked to the left.

Ouyang knew that he had known that he had a tail to follow him. But he still said, "Xie Zhenniang."

"You're welcome, I'll come once, and Zhenniang is quite a bit too late to come. Zhenniang Xie is not too late." Zhenniang greeted: "Sit down slowly, I'll go to the kitchen to see why the food hasn't been served yet."

"It's a labor." Ouyang continued to read the county annals: "Damn, there are six gambling houses, why did I meet five? It's amazing, all of them are old gambling houses with a history of more than twenty years."

"Young Master plans..."
