The sturdy life of crossing

Chapter 154 Stability

"Mr. Luo, please sit down." Father Jane greeted Uncle Luo politely, and asked for some food and drink to come over, "Mr. Luo must have listened to Xiaojie explain what I mean, right now I need people like Mr. Luo In addition to handling the chores in the yamen for me, I also hope that Mr. Luo can recommend a few people who can be used for me."

Uncle Luo was a young scholar, high-spirited and high-spirited. He was in trouble as a young man, so destitute that he lived by begging. The first half of his life was full of ups and downs. What is rare is that he did not become cynical because of it. Compared with Xia Yujie, Father Jian trusted the candidates recommended by Uncle Luo. Still too young.

Uncle Luo didn't expect the new county magistrate to be so peaceful, and he didn't see the arrogance and arrogance of the scholar at all. His heart was ups and downs, and he settled down for a moment and said: "My lord loves you so much, so I dare to say a few words. If I can help you, it's me." It’s a blessing.” Seeing that Jian Dong signaled him to continue, he drank a sip of tea and continued, “If we talk about handling the trivial affairs of the yamen, there are actually a few people in the yamen who are useful, even though they seem to be useless. In the past, when Lu Yuanfang gained power, he would listen to Lu Yuanfang, but now Lord Jian is in power, and as long as Lord Jian firmly controls Jinhai County, they will not be able to get out of Lord Jane's palm."

Jian Dong thought about it for a while, and said, "That's right, but I don't need those people who follow Fang Hu and Lu Yuanfang to oppress the people and bring disaster to the village."

Now Uncle Luo felt more at ease: "It's natural, please rest assured, my lord, the people I mentioned belonged to people who are wise and safe, and what they do on weekdays is not too much..." So Uncle Luo reported the names of a few people and their positions in the yamen. For errands, Jian Dong immediately asked someone to summon them over, let him have a look first, and then see if they should send errands, to see if their status in the original yamen is not high or low, Jian Dong thought, maybe it is the same as what Uncle Luo said, Uncle Luo also mentioned a few people outside the yamen, there are scholars who are depressed and unsuccessful, and Father Jian who had to retire after Fang Hu gained power heard the same. Send someone to ask them to come and help.

These people lived near and far, and they couldn't come for a while, so after eating and drinking, Uncle Luo helped Jian Dong and Jian Wenyuan to deal with the messy affairs in the yamen, Xia Yujie also followed suit, It can indeed play a greater role here than Jian Leyang.

The few people in the yamen were the first to come here, and they arrived as soon as they were invited. Hearing Jian Dong say that they should keep their original errands for now, and see if they can keep their jobs, they were all grateful and flattered. I'm going to make myself a spinning top.

On the contrary, only half of the other group of people came, and the other half either used their incompetence as an excuse, or they couldn't leave due to their busy family affairs. Jian Dong didn't continue to invite them. He knew that these people were probably watching him, or It's Na Qiao, I hope I invite him again to raise my status, Jian Dong smiled, there is only one chance, he can't run the yamen without these people, he has the confidence, the confidence comes from Brother Yang's establishment power.

Why did Fang Hu, a fugitive murderer and pirate, make these people dare not resist?In the final analysis, it was Fang Hu who had mastered the force that made these people fearful, and the power in Brother Yang's hands could not be compared with that of a three-legged cat like Fang Hu.

Besides, when the group of people who took the waterway came to meet up, maybe he would not be short of people.

Uncle Luo also knew the people he saw, and shook his head inwardly. Those people were really stupid. Only those who come to join Mrs. Jane at this time will be more likely to be reused by Mrs. Jane. As for them, Mrs. Jian seems to have a good temper and is easy to talk, but he may not be a person without principles. Looking at the fate of Jinhai County and Fang Hu and others today, you will know that with help, Jian Dong can finally take a breath. Looking at Although the yamen was busy but began to become orderly, he smiled.

But the most important thing is to stabilize the people's hearts as soon as possible. There are still many things to do. The mess left by Lu and Fang must be cleaned up as soon as possible.

Jian Dong also took time out of his busy schedule to try several major cases, and arrested the defendant vigorously. It turned out that most of the people in the yamen prison were released after questioning, because many of them were accused of being imprisoned by Jian Dong before. Those who were dragged in by Lu Yuanfang's minions were to find the murderer who hurt Fang Xiaobao, but according to Jian Dong's estimate, the cell will soon be full of people again.

What Jian Dong did spread quickly in Jinhai County. Some of them did it by their own people, and some of them spontaneously spread it. The middle and lower class people were relieved. The county magistrate is a murderer without blinking an eye, but to them, the new county magistrate kills the wicked, shouldn't the wicked deserve to die?This is called killing people with great joy.

After dark, Jian Niang brought a group of women over to deliver meals, and the candles in the yamen were already lit, so she must continue to work at night.

Jian Dong hurriedly got up, and Jian Niang took the food box in her hand, and helped her to sit down: "Why did you come here in person, just have someone deliver it, you will not be able to take it after a busy day."

Jian Niang took a look at Jian Dad: "What I do is just some physical work, and it is much easier to do this than you."

Father Jian was ashamed, he and his youngest son were the only two men in the family, but they were suppressed by his elder brother and his wife, but Father Jian was used to being beaten, and he was proud of it: "Miss, you sit first, I will wash Come over to eat after you start, Wen Yuan, wash your hands and eat."

"Oh, here we come." Jian Wenyuan's voice was still so energetic.

The others smelled the fragrance coming out of the food box, and their stomachs also growled. When they heard the words from the county magistrate, they also stopped what they were doing, washed their hands and prepared to eat. There will be such benefits.

Uncle Luo and Xia Yujie's meals are specially prepared. They can't stand heavy dishes now, but they can still fill them up. Uncle Luo's eyes are a little moist when he sees this. better.

He and Xia Yujie went to eat in the corner with the meal, chatting while eating, Uncle Luo easily knew what happened that night from Xia Yujie, it turned out that those people were not Mrs Jane's subordinates, but the brothers of Mrs Jane's family Ren Ma, that is, the man who looked so much like his ancestor, General Yun Qing, shocked him unceasingly.

He had seen that "young master" yesterday, and he never thought it was a brother. Xia Yujie's eyes lit up: "Master Wenyuan told me, that's his brother, the son, not the young master." Knowing Jian Leyang's real His status did not detract from Xia Yujie's admiration for him.

However, no matter how close the relationship with Uncle Luo was, Xia Yujie didn't reveal some things. For example, the bow and crossbow owned by Jian Leyang's subordinates should not be too sharp when fighting. No matter how fierce that group of people was, compared with Jian Leyang's obviously well-trained people, they unfortunately became a rabble and were vulnerable.

Living at the bottom of Jinhai County for a long time, Xia Yujie instinctively knew what to say and what not to say, otherwise he would harm Uncle Luo. Uncle Luo should know, and he will naturally know when the time comes.

Uncle Luo couldn't help but think of the boy he met yesterday. He didn't look much older than Xia Yujie, and he didn't have a brotherly look in his gestures, only full of neatness. If he didn't say it himself, he didn't think anyone would think he was a brother. son of a bitch.

"It's really amazing, as expected of being a descendant of General Yunqing." Uncle Luo sighed, "Master Jian and Mr. Jian are together, we, the people of Jinhai County, are blessed this time with both literature and military power."

Although we have been together for most of the day, what kind of temperament a person is is just pretending. Uncle Luo thinks that his eyes can still see it, especially from the small body of Jian Wenyuan. After all, at his age, he still doesn't know how to cover up too much, so he believes that Mrs. Jane, as a parent and official, will do her best to make the people live a good life, not to mention loving the people like children.

On Wu's side, there is Mr. Jian, no matter how rampant the pirates are, they don't have to worry about the pirates breaking into the city to burn, kill and plunder next time.

"Yes, it's amazing." Xia Yujie agreed.

However, within two or three days, earth-shaking changes have taken place in Jinhai County. The common people no longer have to be frightened when walking on the streets. People stormed their homes and sent them to prison.

They were uneasy, and tried every means to keep their previous status, so they used the methods they used to deal with Fang Hu and Lu Yuanfang, such as giving gold, silver and jewelry, especially beauties. There is only one wife, which man is not lustful, so as long as the beauty is sent to him, and the pillow is blown at that time, they can live in peace.

The Jian family hasn't moved out from the Lu Mansion yet, and they plan to wait for Fang Hu, the original Xia Mansion's bloody smell to dissipate, and then clean it up a little bit, and use it as the Jian Mansion, so after those people inquired about this situation, they used A few small sedan chairs carried the beauty there, but they were blocked by the doorman and were not allowed to enter. At the same time, they sent someone to inform the wife, and when she got the news, Jian Niang took up her sleeve and killed her aggressively. On the way, she even grabbed a broom, mother, If the old lady doesn't show off her power, she treats the old lady like a cat, prying the corner of the wall to the old lady, dare to send a beauty?The old lady will let you come and go.

Mrs. Jiang couldn't stop her at all, and besides, she also found that Jianniang's strength was different from ordinary women, and she had heard Jianniang boast that she followed her father to kill pigs and sheep since she was a child, so she didn't dare to underestimate her at all, so she had to trot all the way to chase after her In the sedan chair, Jian Niang saw the eyes of the two small sedan chairs parked at the door with fire, so she simply threw the broom and shouted: "I will bring a knife to Madam."

"Yes, ma'am."

Immediately handing over the knife, Jian Niang rushed to the side of the sedan chair and slashed, cutting the sedan chair to pieces. The beauties in the sedan chair kept screaming, and when the sedan chair was torn down, they saw the shining knife in Jian Niang's hand, and screamed again Passed out with a sound, Jian Niang laughed at the person who brought the beauty over: "If you want to enter Jian's house, you have to pass the old lady first."

Not to mention the beauties, those who sent the beauties trembled in fright, while those who guarded the gate laughed heartily, and even applauded for his wife.

Those people didn't think that Jian Niang was an extremely tough tigress, so they had to change their tactics. If they couldn't do anything with Jian Niang, they would start with Mrs. Jian, so Father Jian appeared on the way back from the Yamen Abnormal, such as walking on the road suddenly someone fell in front of them, or someone blocked the road and called for injustice.

Those who fell and couldn't get up, Father Jian sent people to the hospital without even looking at them, and those who complained about injustices were sent to the yamen, where someone would help to register first.

After two times, the people around Father Jian who protected him found out: "My lord, it seems that my lord has had an affair, it's someone trying to trick my lord, and I heard that my wife has already beaten two beauties out of the house. "

Seeing the teasing and ambiguous smiles of the people around him, Father Jian couldn't laugh or cry, of course he knew what his wife was doing, and he knew that these people were all on his wife's side applauding her, so he actually came to tease himself at this time: "Really If you fall and hurt yourself, then send it to the hospital, I’m not a doctor and I don’t know how to treat injuries, of course those who complain about grievances are business-like, sir, I don’t have any shortcuts here.”

All kinds of failures have returned, and they are very discouraged. This family surnamed Jian, how come everyone is not soaked in oil and salt?Even the small one is not slippery.

It didn't take long, the first few families who started the attack were either given conclusive evidence and sent to prison, or they were fined with silver to cover their crimes. There is a shortage of silver envoys in the yamen. Since there is money and no place to use it, then donate it Well, as for the largest Fengyue building in the county, Papa Jian sent someone to seal it first. The Fengyue building fell to Fang Hu's side early in the morning, and the people inside were not coming from the right way. Don't expect to open the door again unless the review is clear. We welcome guests.

Father Jane’s approach had two kinds of repercussions in the county. One is that Mr. Jane is afraid of his wife, so if he wants to please Mrs. Jane, he must first flatter Mrs. Jane. Madam is a tigress, and her words are often derogatory. She wiped away tears of sympathy for Mrs. Jane. She is actually controlled by such a tigress.

The second type is for common people with flat heads. Of course it’s a good thing that Mrs. Jane doesn’t like women. You must know that the local people have had enough of Fang Hu’s gang. When those pirates first landed and occupied Jinhai County, they followed Like a hungry wolf who hasn't smelled fishy smell for many years, how many daughters and brothers' families have suffered, and now the county magistrate is not a good woman and only guards his wife to live, so the common people can safely let their daughters and brothers go out without worrying about them He was robbed because of his slightly better looks.

Father Jian posted a notice to select young and middle-aged men from the common people. After unified training, they will be used to ensure the security of the county town at ordinary times, and to ensure the safety of the county town in emergencies, and to resist foreign enemies. related discussions.

Everything is going well with Father Jian, and after Jian Leyang has roughly figured out the situation of the bandits, he is ready to attack the bandits and replace them. Jinhai County will be safer then.
