Han official!

Chapter 58 Throwing Coins
As Zhang Qian rushed to the warehouse in Kunchili, Wei Guang rode his Hexi horse to the nearby Liushi and temporarily recruited executioners to go to Kunchili to rescue Guo Jie who was under siege.

Chi Xingshi was conscripted for labor service and was repairing the wall of his neighborhood. Before he finished, he was transferred by Wan Zimeng to the neighborhood to repair his own house.

Only a few dozen executioners were left near the wall to deal with the officials from Chang'an who might come and prevent anyone from talking nonsense. They were all executioners from Liushi.

"Where are the people?"

Wei Guang's face was full of anxiety. He rode his horse around the Liushi wall for almost a circle, but he still didn't see the Gaojie Pavilion and the executioners at the Zhicheng Gate.

He rode forward and asked the guard who was watching over the executioners, "Where are the executioners at Gaojie Duting and Zhichengmen? I have an urgent matter and need to use them. Go and tell me where the executioners are."

This official?

He also rode a Hexi horse with a mane as red as brocade.

The assistant minister's heart tightened, wondering if it was a senior official from the Chang'an government. He hurriedly bowed and said, "Sir, which of the various departments in Chang'an are you from? Please show me your seal and ribbon to confirm your identity. I will immediately go to the head of the Wan Pavilion and prepare a feast for the dusty official who has come here."

There were many officials in Chang'an, who assisted the Chang'an magistrate in governing the neighborhoods and villages of Chang'an.

There were various departments in Chang'an, including the Household Department, the Agricultural Department, the Water Department, the Gold Department, etc.

The official in charge of a Cao is called a Yuan. The Hu Cao is called Hu Cao Yuan, and the Tian Cao is called Tian Cao Yuan.

If it was Cao Yuan from the Chang'an official temple who came, Ting Zuo would not dare to neglect him and would quickly invite Wan Zimeng and offer him a few hundred coins.

This was to avoid privately transferring the criminals to repair the house, which would cause dissatisfaction among the Cao officials and would result in a reprimand if reported.

Ting Zuo looked at Wei Guang anxiously, feeling nervous, fearing that he was the prison official or the prison chief.

The prison clerk is in charge of deciding cases and settling lawsuits.

The Yu Sikong is in charge of prison management.

These two Cao officials were subordinates of the cruel official Zhang Tang. They would not take the money and silk offered at the Liushi Flag Pavilion, no matter how much money and silk was offered.

I dare not take it.

"I am not a Cao official."

The longer time dragged on, the more anxious Wei Guang became. "I'm an assistant official at the Gaojie Duting. I'm here today to call away the criminals from the Gaojie Duting and Zhichengmen. I need to recruit these criminals for something. Please tell me where these people are going."

Assistant?

Ting Zuo's face darkened as he began to curse loudly, "You're just a small assistant, are you trying to play tricks on me? You damned incompetent dog! You made me so frightened I almost thought it was one of Zhang Shang's subordinates coming for inspection. I really want to give you a slap in the face."

A mediocre dog?

Nai Gong?

Wei Guang's face was extremely ugly. He hated being looked down upon the most. Today, he was insulted by a small Ting Zuo. He immediately clenched the iron halberd with the word "卜" in his hand.

He wished he could stab Ting Zuo to death with a single halberd.

"Ah."

Tingzuo sneered, appearing calm on the surface, but his body was very honest. He took several steps back and hid behind the executioner.

He sneered, "What? You still want to kill me? Have you seen my black clothes? In this peaceful and prosperous world, if you dare to harm a hair of mine, you will not be able to leave Liushi. Captain Wan will lead his armored guards to capture you."

Wei Guang knew that the rescue of Kunchi could not be delayed, so he left with gritted teeth, saying bitterly: "Just wait, I will chop off your head with my own hands sooner or later!"

"Pooh!"

Ting Zuo looked at Hexi Ma's receding figure and said fearlessly, "Who in Chang'an doesn't know about the Wan family in Liushi? How can you rely on yourself? Haha, the powerful Wan family is standing behind me."

Wei Guang rode his Hexi horse into the gate of Liushi with an anxious look on his face. He looked at the crossroads of Liushi. The spacious road was lined with tall walls on both sides.

There is a market every four miles.

There are four neighborhoods in Liushi.

"Dismount!" Several guards wearing red armor were guarding the gate. Before their eyes, they saw a flash of red light, and a man in gorgeous clothes rushed into Liushi. He seemed to be a young man from Wuling.

The guard immediately started scolding and chased after the young men from Wuling, telling them that they must dismount before entering Liushi.

As for the young men from Wuling who led their horses into the neighborhood of Liushi and let the horses run wild within the neighborhood, the guards at the pavilion had no power to interfere, and I believe the local officials would not dare to interfere either.

Several guards in the pavilion cursed inwardly, wondering which young man from Wuling, a noble or powerful family, was so ignorant and didn't know the rules.

If you lead your horse into the neighborhood and then let it go, no one will care. But if you let it go at the gate of the neighborhood, it is against the rules.

Wei Guang was almost dying of anxiety. He ignored the guards who were shouting at him to dismount, and rushed towards the village on the left and broke through the gate.

When the guards saw the young men from Wuling riding their horses rushing into the neighborhood, they didn't care. After all, once they entered the neighborhood, it would be the business of the neighborhood officials and had nothing to do with them.

The local clerk and Tian Dian saw a red Hexi horse rushing in. They were about to curse, asking how dare the horse run wild in the market of the neighborhood.

When the two men saw the Hexi horse that Wei Guang was riding, which was also the best border county horse among the many young men in Wuling, they immediately shut up and dared not say a word.

Can not afford to offend.

Wei Guang couldn't find the executioner, so he had to use a risky move to rescue Guo Jie who was being trapped in Kunchi. This was the only way now.

He rushed into a nearby store.

Wei Guang took out the gold cakes he had received as a reward from the last distribution from the casket, a container used to hold arrows, and exchanged them all for three-zhu coins.

"Everyone!"

Wei Guang rode his horse to the center of the busy city, grabbed a handful of three-zhu coins, and threw them into the air. "I need some people to follow me and show our support. Anyone who picks up three-zhu coins and has any sense of loyalty should follow me out to show our support."

Throwing money in the street?!
The bustling streets suddenly became quiet, and merchants and passers-by all looked astonished, having never seen such a luxurious person.

Just treat the money as dirt and throw it away.

A strange story that has never happened before.

The young man from Wuling was even more shocked, and his heart was shaken even more. He had never thought that there was such a way to show one's identity.

It’s too revealing.

While being shocked, the young man from Wuling was secretly annoyed at himself, wondering why he didn't think of throwing money in the street.

Let the man riding the red Hexi horse get ahead.

oops.

The young men from Wuling, who were only interested in pleasure, were extremely jealous.

Only the first person who throws money in the street can gain face.

From now on, anyone who throws money on the street will be imitating that person.

Just like some of the heroes in Chang'an had the confidence to fight a tiger with their bare hands, but no one did it because they didn't want to eat what Guo Jie left.

Those who are capable do not try to defeat the tiger, and those who are incompetent dare not try to defeat the tiger.

No one competed with Guo Jie for the reputation of fighting a tiger with his bare hands.

Not long after Wei Guang scattered the three-zhu coins, he immediately attracted a group of actors, slaves, and poor peddlers who came to scramble for them.

Do the same thing.

Wei Guang threw money in the streets of four neighborhoods in Liushi, causing many people to scramble for it. When he rode out of the gate again, he was no longer alone.

Hundreds of actors, slaves, and poor porters surrounded Wei Guang and rushed towards Kunchili to rescue Guo Jie and others who were surrounded.

Wei Guang looked back and saw hundreds of people surrounding him, excited: "Let's go to Kunchi and kill Qiu Jing!"
