Chongming Xianzong

Chapter 112 County Lieutenant Director
When Kang Dabao walked out of the main hall of Pingrong County, he still didn't understand what these two cunting bastards, Luo Heng and Sun Bingdou, were planning.

It was not a good idea to go back to the sect right away after just being here for half a day, so he first came to his office, the County Wei Temple, to wait for the opportunity to change.

Although the county lieutenant has a low rank, he is also an official of a certain rank. Therefore, according to the regulations of the Xian Dynasty, the county lieutenant has an independent official office.

Pingrong County was a lower-middle county. Below the county lieutenant, there were three lingshi, who were miscellaneous officials of lower rank. Below the lingshi, there were county thief officer, county military officer, capital guard chief and other officials of varying ranks.

Currently, there is no one to take up the position of these three Lingshi, and Master Kang is thinking that maybe he can transfer a few Wuwu to be Lingshi later.

First, this county is more prosperous than that of Mingzong, and is suitable for his retirement.

Secondly, it would be a good idea to let the old cultivator stay in Pingrong County and collect information with him, so that he wouldn't be completely in the dark about the situation in the city like he is now. If those two bastards suddenly want to harm him one day, he wouldn't be left without any news in advance.

As for the clerks, they were mortal warriors in the county. They were all there when Zhai Le was the county lieutenant.

Kang Dabao entered the county lieutenant's temple and summoned these officials. After hearing some flattery, he was not very interested in dealing with them, so he just gave them a few clichéd instructions, asking them to be honest and not to oppress the good people.

Facing the "Immortal Master", these people naturally did not dare to say a word against Kang Dabao, and they all stuck their butts out and nodded in agreement.

With Master Kang's ability to read people's minds, he can tell that there are a few dishonest ones among them.

Among them, the higher-ranking officials are almost all martial arts masters, and the lowest ones are also martial arts masters in the blood training realm.

Once a person has extraordinary military power, it is difficult for him not to indulge in his desires. These people must have done a lot of bullying men and women in the past.

But punishing without teaching is not an option. Kang Dabao was very concerned after taking office. He had not had time to establish rules before, and most people just acted according to their previous habits.

As long as these people follow the rules and don't do anything out of line, then the head of Kangda will not bother to trouble them. It's better for mortals to take care of these mortal affairs.

After a day, the runners sent by Luo Heng captured all the famous martial artists in Pingrong County and then withdrew.

Of course, there were some unlucky people who were kind-hearted among them, but the vast majority were rampant villains. Pingrong County finally did something good for the people's livelihood by accident.

By night, the common people felt a little relieved because the city foxes and rats were gone, making the streets of Pingrong County strangely lively.

Even more lively than the streets is the prison in Pingrong County. Hundreds of martial arts masters above the Bone Refining Realm with names like "Shocking Wind Sword" and "Tiger Roaring Knife" are locked up inside.

No matter how famous they were outside or how powerful they were, now they were all beaten half to death, locked up with their collarbones, and locked up here.

After being raised for another ten days, they will be sent to the Lingshi Mine in Tanggu County to work as miners.

In order to prevent the mortal jailers in the prison from being unable to keep watch over these people, Luo Heng specially allocated twenty spirit stones and hired monks from the Luo family of Heilin Fort to come and guard them.

According to the system, the authority and responsibility for a county prison belongs to the prefect, but Pingrong County is a lower-level county and is not worthy of a prefect. Logically, Kang Dabao, the county lieutenant, should be the chief officer of the prison.

But since Sun Bingdou had already volunteered to take over the task of escorting the Master, Sect Leader Kang was happy to let him temporarily take over the responsibility of managing the prison.

He had received news in the evening that Sun Bingdou, in the name of the county, had notified thirty-seven taxpaying households, requiring each household to bring fifty bone-refining warriors to the Pingrong County Government to report.

The Governor's Office only needed Pingrong County to provide a thousand teachers. After all, Pingrong County was just a small county and should not have to bear too heavy corvee labor. Moreover, the Governor's Office and the Yunjiao Prefecture Court under the Nan'an Earl's Office where Kuang Liuting was in charge were two independent teams.

The person in charge of the Governor's Office is the old foundation-building master Huo Bing. It is hard to say that he has very high prestige in the counties. Therefore, Pingrong County may be able to bargain for the price of the one thousand teachers assigned to it.

But Sun Bingdou wanted to collect fifty people from every family, which proved that he had the same problem as the recently deceased Xie Xianzun, that is, he did not regard other people's lives as their own.

However, this time the county requires each family to send out mortals, and each family may not have any emotions. As long as it is a force of a certain scale, there are a lot of mortal warriors, and they are not worth much.

Besides, Sun Bingdou really wanted to set an example this time, as even the Grass Witch Cult was not spared from this assignment. Since he acted like this, he would certainly not let go of the Chongming Sect led by Kang Da.

But fifty bone-refining warriors are indeed not a large number, and there is no need for the families of each disciple to contribute.

As long as we gather together all the mortal warriors from various gangs and factions in the Chongming Sect and do a simple screening, we can immediately find them all, and there may even be more.

Just like the current Pingrong County, without these guys who rely on their bravery and don't follow the rules, it would naturally be a good thing for the good people who follow the rules, so Kang Dabao didn't plan to use any tricks.

After Sun Bingdou notified him, he had already sent a letter to the City Lord's Mansion of Chongming City, asking his cousin Kang Dahou to do this.

He was not afraid that his cousin, who had only mediocre abilities, would fail to succeed. In the City Lord's Mansion of Chongming City alone, there were ten Wuzong servants who were picked up by Kang Dabao one after another.

Kang Dabao not only threw them several books on advanced martial arts, but also provided them with leftover fragments of talismans to use as "magic weapons".

Even if that group of martial artists were really brave enough to have a conflict with the City Lord's Mansion, it would certainly not blow up.

What's more, except for Kang Dahou, the leaders of the big families in Chongming City are all martial ancestors, so there is no chance of any accidents.

Speaking of which, there are too few capable people in Chongming Sect. Otherwise, it would be more appropriate to dispatch one or two marginal disciples to guard important places like Chongming City, which are full of relatives of the disciples.

If something unexpected really happened, the entire Kang family might be wiped out.

There are only three or four hundred males in the entire Chongming Kang family nowadays. They can be killed very quickly, and there are not even enough for a vicious person like Gu Laoliu to train a few little ghosts.

After resolving this minor matter, Kang Dazhang inspected the county's arsenal again. Pingrong County was located in a border area, so the arsenal had to be upgraded and equipped according to the regulations of the central county.

Kang Dabao was not familiar with these things, so he asked the clerk in charge of warehouse management to accompany him.

He has a pale face and looks like a scholar. He wears a pink futou and his waist seems to be thinner than the girls in Yuanyang Tower. However, he is a rare martial arts master at the peak of his powers.

"Report to the county lieutenant, according to the regulations, our Pingrong County arsenal should have one second-grade upper-grade star-shooting crossbow, nine second-grade lower-grade star-chasing crossbows, and the rest 150 first-grade miscellaneous crossbows, 100 first-grade standard defensive magic tools, 300 first-grade standard offensive magic tools, and various kinds of elixirs, talismans, puppets, and hundreds of other scattered items. But since Pingman, the Immortal Dynasty has rarely allocated funds to us.

After Lord Zhu destroyed the Niu family, he did give us some supplies, but it was far from the amount that should be within the regulations."

What the clerk said was not intuitive. After Kang Dabao personally took the token and opened the formation of the Pingrong Arsenal, which was better than nothing, and got a glimpse of the true appearance inside, he couldn't help but sigh.

The head of Kangda looked at the innocent warehouse clerk beside him with a dark face and said: "Your job is much easier than mine."
