New and dark light years

Chapter 126: Don’t avoid relatives when promoting talents

"You are quite good, County Lieutenant." Jiang Jili stood up and said, "I will not argue with you."

Then he looked at Huang Yan and said, "County Master, Li Lin is not suitable to be a county lieutenant. He is more than suitable to be a captain."

"You mean, I don't know how to judge people?" Huang Yan asked calmly, not looking angry at all.

Jiang Jili clasped his fists and said, "That's not what I meant."

"Then why not let Li Lin continue to serve as the county lieutenant?"

"He is your son-in-law."

"I, Huang, will not avoid relatives when selecting talented people."

"What if others disagree?"

At this time, Zhao Hao took the lead and shouted, "All of us spirit hunters recognize County Lieutenant Li."

Captain Yan also shouted, "All of us, the detectives and yamen runners, also recognize that County Lieutenant Li is on duty."

Several captains of police and police chiefs nearby nodded in unison.

Huang Ying smiled and said, "I am the chief clerk and I recognize Lieutenant Li."

Seeing everyone siding with Li Lin, Jiang Jili's expression turned grim. He then gritted his teeth and said, "Your Excellency, I was wrong about this. Before I came to Yulin County, I heard that the new county lieutenant was incompetent, so I had a preconceived notion. Please forgive me."

"Who told you that?" Huang Yan asked.

"a passerby."

Huang Yan said with a half-smile, "Oh, I see. I also ask the County Magistrate to be careful in the future and not believe what outsiders say."

"Yes Yes!"

Jiang Jili agreed repeatedly.

"Alright, everyone go back to your work. County Lieutenant, please stay. I have some things to discuss regarding the case."

Li Lin nodded.

Jiang Jili stood up and glanced at Li Lin before leaving, his eyes full of fear.

After everyone had left, Huang Yan said, "My dear son-in-law, this County Magistrate Jiang has quite an important background."

Li Lin listened quietly.

"Every aristocratic family always has two or three rivals." Huang Yan said with a smile, "There are actually people secretly obstructing my taking the position of Jincheng, but it's not a big problem. Now this Jiang Jili was sent by an aristocratic family that has some problems with my Huang family."

Li Lin asked, "Can't we drive him away?"

"That has to be for a legitimate reason." Huang Yan patted Li Lin's shoulder: "He will probably target you, so be careful."

"it is good."

After reminding Li Lin, Huang Yan left.

Li Lin continued to patrol with his men.

Li Lin has been serving as the county lieutenant for three months now, and he has also used his monthly salary to pay three months' worth of "salary" to the yamen runners.

Although after dividing it, there were only about fifty copper coins, which was not much, but for the yamen runners, this money could indeed allow them or their families to eat more.

Therefore, the yamen runners now have a more accepting attitude towards Li Lin.

Of course, the one who recognized Li Lin the most was He Shangjin.

After all, Li Lin saved his life.

Li Lin had been waiting for County Magistrate Jiang to cause trouble for him, but he didn't expect that the first person to cause trouble for him was Wang Tianyou.

The third floor of the restaurant.

A large table of fine wine and delicious food.

"Congratulations, Brother Li, on taking up the position of county lieutenant, and congratulations, Brother Li, on winning the beauty." Wang Tianyou clasped his fists.

Then give a red envelope.

"Thank you very much." Li Lin accepted the red envelope and asked, "How come you have time to come here?"

"Do you remember the female ghost we met at the Earth God Temple last time?"

Li Lin nodded.

That female ghost was indeed beautiful, probably half as charming as the Tree Fairy.

He is about two-thirds the size of his wife Huang Qing.

In addition, the ghost was dispelled by Li Lin, so he was particularly impressed.

"That female ghost has come back to life."

"why?"

Wang Tianyou was also puzzled: "Logically, a ghost that was dispersed should not be able to survive, but I didn't expect... it actually came back to life."

Li Lin understood what the other party meant: "You want to... recapture her and take her back?" "Yes." Wang Tianyou nodded: "A beautiful female ghost is very useful."

Li Lin understood: "So you want me to help you again?"

"No." Wang Tianyou shook his head: "I just want your permission."

"Why?"

"The land temple is outside Yulin City. Now that you are the county lieutenant, it should belong to you." Wang Tianyou said helplessly: "Without your order, we dare not arrest her."

"Have you obtained the county lieutenant's consent before?"

"That's different. The previous county lieutenant was Young Master Huang. He's not a spirit hunter and has no need for these things, so his consent is naturally not needed."

Li Lin understood: "Go ahead, I'm not interested in that ghost."

The reason is simple.

dirty!
I don’t know how many times it has been used on me.

Li Lin still remembers the scene of her kneeling in front of the man.

Besides, she is not nearly as pretty as the Tree Fairy Lady.

It took a lot of effort for him to get the queen to accept that he now has a wife. If he brings back a female ghost, she will probably be furious.

If the Tree Fairy Lady was disappointed in him because of this, where would he go to seek justice?

He doesn't want to give up a big tree for a blade of grass.

"Thank you very much. I'll remember this favor and will repay you when I have the chance." Wang Tianyou stood up and said, "Then I'll go make some preparations."

"Do you need my help?"

"No need, I'll bring the experts from home with me."

After saying that, Wang Tianyou left.

Li Lin looked at the table full of dishes and felt a little worried that he wouldn't be able to finish them.

It would be a waste to throw it away.

At this moment, a familiar face appeared at the stairs.

He has a full beard and two shovels tied on his head with red cloth. At first glance, he is an extremely strong man.

He looked around and saw Li Lin. He immediately shouted happily, "Brother Lin, I found you."

Li Lin was a little depressed: "How did you know I was here?"

"I feel like you're here." Zhao Xiaohu walked over and said, "These are banana seeds grown in Longsheng Village. They're delicious. I brought a bunch for you."

After saying that, he placed a large pile of bananas next to Li Lin and sat opposite him.

"Brother Lin, you are really rich. You can eat so many dishes by yourself."

"You can eat it too. Prince Wang has already paid for it. It would be a waste if you don't eat it."

"Good."

Zhao Xiaohu didn't hesitate and started eating and drinking.

While eating a chicken drumstick, he said, "Brother Lin, please teach me how to please girls. Ah Qiu doesn't pay much attention to me now."

Aqiu?

Oh, Ding Yingqiu.

"Why are you looking for me for this?"

"Brother Lin, you can even marry a beautiful girl like the daughter of a county magistrate. You must know a lot. Teach me."

Li Lin hissed, "She's nineteen, you're thirteen, six years apart."

"Can't I hold two gold bricks?"

Li Lin scratched his head: "Your idea... is actually the right way, but I'm really not good at this."

"I don't believe it." Zhao Xiaohu looked like he was lying to me again.

Li Lin thought for a moment and said, "Actually, I think she is a little interested in you, but because you are so young, she probably doesn't dare to make a move on you. Why don't you try to pester her?"

"Can it be done?"

Li Lin shook his head: "I don't know, but based on my experience, it should be possible. Chatting with a woman more often can increase her favorability... and increase her affection for you."

"Then I'll give it a try." Zhao Xiaohu was very convinced of Li Lin and wrote down the trick. Then he remembered something and took out a handwritten book from his pocket: "A few days ago, someone threw this thing at my door. I saw it and felt dizzy and wanted to vomit. I wonder if you know this, Brother Lin."

Li Lin took it and looked at it, and found three words written on the cover.

The secret of the word "obscure".
