Beginning from the world of Uncle Jiu, he tricked his master into enlightening him.

Chapter 88

"Sir, we are all rough people and we really can't do this job."

"If I missed your big event."

The oldest servant wanted to refuse with a trembling tone.

He knew very well that this group of people was not the material to be an official at all. To put it bluntly, they were nothing but loyal.

It's okay to ask them to sweep the floor and pour night fragrance, but they really can't do it as an official.

Lin Cheng waved his hand carelessly and interrupted:
"I've made up my mind, you don't need to say anything."

"After taking office, I don't need you to do anything else. Just stand still for the time being and don't conflict with local forces."

"Silently accumulate strength and wait for my orders, can you do it?"

The easiest job in the world is to be a bureaucrat, especially if you are a bureaucrat who does nothing and lies down, it is even easier.

There is no need to think about how great it is to be an official, how much education, experience, or emotional intelligence is required.

In fact, for most officials, there is really not much difference whether he is present or not.

Does a county have a county magistrate or not, does it affect local development?

The answer is, it doesn't matter.

Sometimes it might even develop better!
Whether or not there is a county magistrate is not important to the common people, but it is important to the upper class.

They must use officials like the county magistrate to radiate power to the lowest level of the people layer by layer.

Therefore, when Lin Cheng selected the county magistrate, the most important condition was loyalty.

As for ability, it doesn’t matter!
The eight people he selected were all honest people who had served the Ren family all their lives, suffered many kinds of unfair treatment, and remained loyal.

Lin Cheng couldn't guarantee that they would remain true to their original intentions after gaining power, but he believed that at least most people would not betray him.

This is enough.

For those who are disobedient, Lin Cheng has his own way to make him obedient.

Lin Cheng spent such a high price to buy the county magistrate, of course, not just to expand his power.

His real purpose is to replicate the successful experience of Temple Street as quickly as possible.

He doesn't need the county magistrate to have much ability, he just needs them to be obedient.

In fact, he can also reach cooperation with existing county magistrates through bribery.

But this is not safe. Lin Cheng knows that group of people, each one is more greedy than the last, and each one is more rogue than the last.

Lin Cheng didn't have the time to make excuses with those bastards, nor did he have the time to screen every collaborator. That would take too much energy.

For Lin Cheng, it was a thankless task, and the gain outweighed the loss.

When the eight people heard this, they all knelt down and said:

"I would like to follow you forever."

Lin Cheng frowned when he saw this and said loudly:
"Get up! Don't kneel!"

"You have to remember that these people are county magistrates and lords now."

"The master should have the aura of the master, otherwise even if he wears official uniform, he is just trying to make people laugh."

In this way, the eight people left with unlimited hope for the future and a letter of appointment, escorted by many security team members.

Lin Cheng arranged 50 guards and 10 followers for each of them, and also gave each of them 1 taels of silver as a starting capital to establish their initial foothold.

As for the follow-up, whether they should continue to provide funding depends on their performance.

Don't think that the number of 50 guards is small, but the group of security team members is different from before.

After Lin Cheng came back, he arranged for the four royal guards, namely Ah Yi, Two, Three and Four, to teach them martial arts.

After a few months, I can’t say how much my strength has improved, but at least it is much stronger than ordinary people.

They are no longer weaker than the soldiers under some small warlords. Coupled with sophisticated weapons and equipment, their combat power cannot be underestimated, and they are enough to deal with most situations.

Of course, the premise is that they don't touch the core interests of the local gentry.

Regarding this point, Lin Cheng also repeatedly confessed to eight people.

Don't steal other people's jobs. Even if you give up some of your benefits, don't conflict with local forces.

Slowly accumulate strength and wait for Lin Cheng's instructions.

After arranging eight people, Lin Cheng finally made some time.

Exhausted physically and mentally, the first thing he thought of was to go back to Yizhuang.

Lin Cheng is now the master of Ren Mansion, but he doesn't have much sense of belonging here.

For him, Yizhuang is a haven for his soul, where he can relax.

Today's Yizhuang is very lively. In addition to Qianhe and Southeast and Northwest, there are also a dozen Maoshan disciples who have come to seek refuge with Uncle Jiu.

More than 200 Maoshan ancestors also put their names in Yizhuang and left their soul tablets.

As long as Uncle Jiu calls, he can rush over to help at any time.

Therefore, although Uncle Jiu is still like a bad old man, doing Tai Chi every day, he is actually very powerful now.

In the entire southwest region, they are all ranked high-ranking people.

After Lin Cheng returned to Yizhuang, he did not go to Uncle Jiu.

Regarding Zhuo Shuying, it would be useless even to tell Uncle Jiu, it would only cause trouble.

He found a literary talent he hadn't seen for a long time. He heard that this guy was in love recently, and it was a long-distance relationship.When he learned the news, Lin Cheng was very surprised. Is there still such a thing as long-distance love in this day and age?

With this idea in mind, Lin Cheng found the literary talent who was sighing and asked softly:
"Wen Cai, what's wrong with you?"

Wen Cai glanced at Lin Cheng and said angrily:
"Brother, I was deceived!"

"That liar cheated me of 2 oceans!"

Oh?
Lin Cheng's curiosity was aroused. Who else could defraud money from Wen Cai?

It's a big deal.

This boy was poor and stingy, and was reluctant to even treat him to a meal. Lin Cheng was curious about who could defraud Wencai out of money.

He glanced sideways at Wen Cai and said calmly:
"Want revenge?"

Wen Cai nodded without hesitation. The property he had worked so hard to save had been deceived like this, and anyone else would have exploded.

Lin Cheng nodded and said:
"I can help you get your money back."

Wen Cai heard this and nodded desperately. He also believed that his omnipotent senior brother could help him seek justice.

Lin Cheng saw this, stretched out a hand, and said lightly:

"If you ask me to take action, I need 3 oceans!"

Wencai was stunned. This was the first time that his senior brother asked him for money.

He lowered his head and thought for a moment. Although this was a bit of a loss no matter how he calculated it, he mainly couldn't swallow this breath.

So Wencai ran back to the room, took out 3 oceans from the small vault, handed it to Lin Cheng, and said solemnly:

"Brother, please."

Lin Cheng put Dayang away, nodded expressionlessly, and then disappeared in a flash.

Wencai was stunned when he saw this, and left now?

I haven't told you who the scammer is or where he lives.

The confused Wencai froze in place for a long time, unable to understand why his senior brother was able to predict the future.

In the end, Wen Cai shrugged. Since he couldn't figure it out, he simply didn't think about it. He went back to his room and started meditating.

After Lin Cheng became rich, he arranged two cooks for Yizhuang to cook.

Literary talents don't have to serve such a large group of people, so they have a lot of free time to practice and fall in love!

Originally, Uncle Jiu had no intention of accepting the cook arranged by Lin Cheng. He was born poor and could not enjoy the life of a wealthy family.

But looking at the large group of people in Yizhuang, if Wen Cai was still allowed to arrange the meals, he wouldn't have to practice.

After much thought, Uncle Jiu decided to accept the two cooks so that Wen Cai could have more time to practice.

Not long after, before Wen Cai officially entered the state of cultivation, Lin Cheng returned.

He handed Wencai two ocean coins and said with a smile:
"I've got Dayang back for you. How about it? Isn't Senior Brother efficient?"

Literary talent:.
I haven't read much, don't lie to me.

I didn't even tell you who the liar was. How did you help me get back to Dayang?
And it’s so fast, do you think I’m a fool?

This money is basically the ocean I just gave you.

I give you three yuan as a reward, you give me two yuan back, and you earn me a fortune without doing anything. Is my money so easy to make?

Wencai got closer and smelled it, and there was a musty smell, just like the box where he hid his money.

"Brother!"

Wencai was a little angry.

Lin Cheng chuckled. Sure enough, it was much easier to bully a literary talent when he was depressed.

Lin Cheng, who was even more evil-minded, couldn't help but laugh so hard that tears almost came out of his eyes.

Wen Cai looked at this unscrupulous senior brother with a blank expression and said nothing.

After a while, Lin Cheng stopped. He held his stomach and said with a smile:

"Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore."

"Tell me, who deceived you and how."

Wen Cai gave Lin Cheng a hard look, then sighed and said:

"Some time ago, I became pen pals with a woman."

"We get along very well and talk about almost anything."

"She said she was from Goose City. Recently, a new county magistrate came, and he shot several gangsters as soon as he came."

"The local emperor Huang Silang of their county couldn't stand the new county magistrate. The two sides fought openly and secretly, which made honest people like them miserable."

"The girl said that her husband was seriously ill and that the family's savings had been depleted and the poor could hardly afford to eat."

"I thought she was pitiful, so I gave her two oceans."

"Unexpectedly, she took away my money and disappeared. I wrote several letters but she didn't reply to me!"

Wencai was still chattering there, but Lin Cheng's mind was filled with turmoil, and he didn't hear a word of what he said next.

Goose City?

Huang Silang?
Is this, letting the bullets fly?
