I was a gentleman in ancient times

Except for Wang Ling, Yinshou, and official uniforms, what else can Wei Su do?Just bite the bullet.

If he can't achieve results this time, he will lose Wei Su's reputation, and he may be beaten to pieces in the end.

It has to be said that the person who came up with this trick is indeed a little brainy. This kind of aboveboard conspiracy is to make Wei Su know that there is a pit ahead, but he can't retreat at all.There is no choice but to jump into the pit, of course, unless Wei Su backtracks and asks Lou Guojun to take back the king's order again.In this way, can his position in Lou Guojun's heart still be as trustworthy as it is today?Ha ha, it's impossible to think about it.

One arrow has several carvings, Wei Su said that he will never be used to him.

He really wants to try the depth of the pit, there is no pit that he can't get through.

First of all, I still have to step on the spot... Uh, I made a mistake, I went to my own site to see the situation.Then go to the official office first, understand the situation first, and then proceed to the next step.

"Master, we're here." The carriage swayed, and when Zhou Cheng's voice sounded, Wei Su put down the investigation documents that Zhong Lihui had sent over, straightened his robes, and got out of the carriage.

When I looked up, the half-closed door in front of me, the weeds at the door were messy, and the cobwebs on the door gave off a desolate and dilapidated atmosphere.

Wei Su paused, and asked with some hesitation: "Uncle Zhou, is this really a government office? Are you looking for the wrong place?" After all, it's normal to go the wrong way when you come here for the first time.

Zhou Cheng shook his head, and said with certainty: "This is the place, the old slave asked about it, there is nothing wrong with it."

Wei Su was half-believed, whether it was true or not, if he went in and had a look, he would know.

Zhou Cheng stepped forward to knock on the door, and a lazy voice came out of the door cursing impatiently: "Who is it? Can't you see that the door is open? Come in if you have something to do, and get out if you have nothing to do."

Zhou Cheng stopped his movements, looked at Wei Su, and asked for instructions on what to do.Wei Su took a few steps forward, opened the door, and saw a person inside, humming a little tune, burying his head in drinking and eating leisurely.

"What are you doing here? I won't accept any disputes today. Even if there is a lawsuit from the victim, I will not accept the case." The man finished speaking in one breath, without even raising his head, just focusing on drinking.

"Is it just not accepted today, or in the future?" Wei Su asked leisurely.

"Go, go, not only today, but also in the future, get out of here! Get out of here!" The man waved his hand impatiently.

Wei Su chuckled, "I don't see anyone saying that the government doesn't accept civilian disputes and sues."

The man saw that he had made it so clear, and he couldn't stop, so he felt angry, put down the chopsticks in his hand, and slapped the table, "I said, what about you..."

The man raised his head, and the young man in neat official uniform was imprinted in front of him, and he was shocked.It suddenly occurred to him that Mr. Wei had accepted Wang Ling as a little Situ about the uproar that had been rumored a few days ago.Could this person be Mr. Wei?He stammered, "It's the new little Doctor Situ Zhong, Wei... Lord Wei?"

Wei Su nodded, "It's just my misfortune that I interrupted your meal."

The man quickly stood up, and said repeatedly in fear and fear: "I don't know how much you offended me when you came today. I ask you to forgive me."

Wei Su smiled, waved his hands and said, "Those who don't know are innocent. You didn't know I was coming today, so there is nothing wrong with it. Why don't you eat yours first, and then we can talk after eating."

Where does that person have the mind to eat now?Wanting Wei Su to sit up, he saw that everything was messy and dusty.He was a little embarrassed, and quickly took the first seat, and then invited Wei Su to take the seat.

Wei Su didn't pay too much attention, just sat down, and asked with a pleasant face, "What's your name? What's your position now? Why are you the only one here?"

That person was at a loss, his tone was so bad just now, Master Wei was not angry with him?He rubbed his hands, and replied cautiously: "The villain's name is Min Lu, and he is in charge of various documents and so on. Three of them asked for sickness in the future, and two of them went out to deal with business today."

"Oh?" Wei Su was very curious. Apart from the taxes in the fields that need to be collected, what other matters require them to go there in person?Now is not the time to collect taxes, so he asked, "What business are you dealing with?"

Min Lu couldn't hide it at this time, so he could only tell the truth: "It's the eastern suburbs of the city. There is land to buy and sell, and they will go to help with it."

"Buying and selling land?" Wei Su squinted his eyes, guessing what was going on in his heart, but said calmly: "Shouldn't both parties go to the government office to handle this kind of thing? I remember that both parties should sign a contract. If both parties agree, we still need to verify the documents, and wait for everything to match before we dare to draw a seal to prove it. But I don’t know when the rules have been changed, and people from the government office need to make such a trip. First, can they verify the paperwork?"

Min Lu's back was in a cold sweat, he didn't expect the newly appointed Lord Wei to understand the rules.He wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, but he was thinking in his heart how to round up the words?

"This... I think they will... check the documents when they come back."

Wei Su flicked his official robe, with a smile that was not a smile, "It is the responsibility of the little Situ Zhong to check the documents. When did I, the little Situ who just took office, let someone do it for me?"

Min Lu was terrified, and fell to his knees with a "plop" when he heard the words, "Big...Master, little one, little one..."

Wei Su stared coldly for a while, and then said slowly: "Actually, I can understand it. After all, Situ's position has been vacant for a long time. I also know your difficulties."

Wei Su's words touched his heart, he couldn't help nodding, and said with a bit of sadness: "Your Excellency, since the previous Lord Wang left, no one dared to take over this mess. Back then, Lord Wang At that time, both parties went to the government office, and Mr. Wang handled it. But after Mr. Wang left, there was no one in charge here. People like us, without the protection of adults, are disgusted no matter where we go Only when noble gentlemen need to make a land contract and impatiently come to the official office, will they order me to wait for it, and I wait for a small official, how can I refuse the dignitary?"

He spoke with sincerity, and tears were about to fall when he talked about the sad and distressed place.

Wei Su stood up and patted him on the shoulder, "Get up."

Min Lu hesitated for a moment, then stood up, before he could stand still, he heard Wei Su say, "I need to deal with the land contract, since my lord has already taken office, let's go and see how the process is going."

Min Lu's feet softened when he heard the words, and he almost knelt down again. Fortunately, Wei Su seemed to be prepared and gave him a hand.He didn't kneel down.

Wei Su looked at him with a half-smile, "What's wrong?"

Min Lu grimaced, "Sir...my lord is going? My lord just took office today, so I'm so tired, why don't I just wait for them to come back in the official office to deal with business. If I go this time, the road will be uneven, and it will be difficult for vehicles and horses to travel. What do you think, my lord? "

"No problem." Wei Su smiled lightly, and walked towards the door, "I have a carriage, you just need to lead the way."

Min Lu was still hesitating, Wei Su had already arrived at the door, seeing him still where he was, he urged: "Hurry up, what are you waiting for?"

Min Lu had no choice but to take a step and watch, and boarded the carriage with Wei Su.

"Go to the Eastern Suburb. You can just tell Zhou Cheng the location. He is very familiar with the Eastern Suburb." Wei Su said while staring at Min Lu who was sitting in the corner.

Min Lu was still thinking in his mind that if he wanted to guide the way by himself, he could take a detour to delay the time, but he didn't expect Wei Su's words to extinguish his thoughts.Forget it, forget it, he can't blame himself, he has tried his best.

Wei Su secretly observed the changes in his expression, seeing that he seemed to have given up struggling, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.Ah!With such a little thought, how could he not see it?

Zhou Cheng could indeed know the way. Since Wei Su was appointed, Wei Su ordered him to go outside the city to investigate the situation, so after running back and forth a few times, he became familiar with the way.

There are many mountains in the eastern suburbs, and the roads are rugged, just as Min Lu said.Fortunately, Wei Su's carriage has been improved by Mr. Duanmu, and the shock absorption effect is very good, and it is quite stable for people sitting in it.

"How long have you been in the government office? Little Situ's position has been vacant all the time, haven't you guys thought of a way?" In order not to make the journey too dull, and to get some words out of his mouth, Wei Su opened up the conversation box.

"The young one has been in the government office for more than ten years, and he is considered an old man in the government office." Min Lu bowed his hands and replied honestly.It could be seen that he was a little nervous, so he tried to be careful when speaking.

Wei Su smiled, "You don't have to be polite, we're bored along the way, you can just chat casually, don't be restrained." Since I'm an old man, I can come to know as many inside information as I want, it seems that I can win over this person and do it for me. Used.

Min Lu was taken aback, he had been in the government office for so many years, and he had never met such an easy-going adult like Lord Wei.He was a little embarrassed, but Wei Su's smile somehow had a calming power.

No matter how you say it, Mr. Wei is his direct subordinate. It is impossible for him to be unrestrained in front of Wei Su.However, Master Wei has said so, and he can't say no, he can only smile and say yes.

Wei Su really seemed to be gossip, asked him some trivial matters at home and the situation of his family, and he answered them one by one, maybe it was not related to official business, and the questions were familiar to him, so he gradually let go and relaxed a lot.

"Since you are already an old man, you probably know the little Situ you have served in the past, why don't you tell me?" Wei Su asked tentatively, changing the subject.

Min Lu scratched his head, "There's nothing to say, anyway, as far as I know, this little Situ has never been able to do it for a long time." As soon as the words came out, he felt that something was wrong, so he took a careful look at Wei Su, "Wei... ...Master Wei, I didn't say what you meant."

Wei Su waved his hand indifferently, and let him continue with a smile.Seeing that he didn't look unhappy at all, Min Lu put his heart in his throat and put it back to its original place. It seems that Master Wei is really different from others.

Min Lu continued: "Before he took office and left, there were already one, two... well, there were almost four young Situ, who either resigned due to illness or returned home when they were old. In short, none of them could stay for a long time."

I don't know how long the newly appointed Lord Wei can last, after all, this position is something that everyone avoids, it can be said that it is a doormat.Alas, I hope this person in front of me can last a little longer.

"It's interesting. I've heard before I came that this little Situ's official position is quite good. The land under his jurisdiction is fertile and rich, and the taxation is gratifying. Moreover, as long as there are land documents and other contracts, there will be benefits. Your predecessor is still dissatisfied with wearing the crown and leaving?" Wei Su rubbed his smooth chin, narrowed his eyes and said.

As soon as Wei Su finished speaking, Min Lu's eyes showed contempt. He originally thought that this lord was different from the others, but he didn't expect that he was the same.Hehe, I'm afraid that he will be disappointed. Does he really think that this position is beautiful and there are many benefits to be able to go up and down?If this was the case, the former little Situ would not have left in a hurry.You must know that the adults in front of you are almost all unable to reap benefits, so they will resign without hesitation.It can be said that not only is there no benefit, but it also bears a bad name. He has to keep his eyes open to see how long this person can stay.

Wei Su noticed the change in Min Lu's expression one by one, but he didn't point it out, and asked curiously, "Your two other colleagues went to sign the contract, why didn't you go?"

What is he going to do?It was nothing more than to witness the tragedy of a monk who was ruined and killed.Those nobles are domineering, and he has seen a lot in the early years.And don't naively think that they will really benefit the people who handle the government office, hehe, it would be nice to give them a good face.As for the common people's fields are gone, and people can't support themselves, what is there to be afraid of?In addition to venomous cursing and spurning the lackeys who helped the nobles oppress them, some even risked their lives. He was once beaten with a stick and went back to lie down for more than a month.

In short, people like them are just double-sided, they have no benefits to gain, and they are even more resented.But they have no choice but to do it, those aristocrats, how can they afford to offend petty officials like them, they have to bite the bullet.

Min Lu said in a muffled voice, "It shouldn't be my turn this time." After he finished speaking, he felt bitter, "Master Wei, to be honest, if it weren't for the fact that the wife, children, and mother in the family have to rely on the younger one, the younger one really wants to Put down the pick and quit. My little advice to adults, it is better to do this kind of thing less, so as not to suffer karma."

"What kind of thing? Buying and selling for the aristocrats?" Wei Su smiled calmly.

"Eh!" Min Lu's eyes widened, "Master Wei also knows?"

Wei Su glanced at him, did he know it was strange?As a newly appointed official, isn't it strange that you don't know anything about your official position? "There is pressure from the nobles on the upper level, and complaints from the common people on the lower level. It is no wonder that those in front are unwilling to stay longer."

Min Lu didn't know what to say anymore, so he asked stupidly, "How long can Master Wei stay?"

Wei Su chuckled, "Of course I'll stay until the root cause of this situation is resolved."

"Solve it?" Min Lu didn't believe it, how could this kind of thing be solved fundamentally?How is this possible unless the aristocrats of the family no longer encroach on the fields?Fields have always been the foundation of people. Since ancient times, no noble family has not valued fields.Mr. Wei spoke like this... He glanced at the young Wei Su, um, young man, how can you take something casually seriously?

There was a noise coming from the front, Min Lu looked out the car window, frowned and said, "It should be not far ahead."
