There is no money left on the books of the government office, and even a loss of money, but who made Gu Zhao a master who is not short of money and does not play cards according to reason, so he will do things out of his own pocket first, and then return the money after the government earns it back. He is.

After the money reaches a certain amount, it is really a number for Gu Zhao, so taking money out of his own pocket does not feel heartache to Gu Zhao at all. Behind him are the second brother Qi, Gu Ren and the Li family, so he does not believe in throwing money away. It can't beat the four families in this city.

Tian Sheng is a petty official at the bottom of the yamen. A petty official like him belongs to the oppressed class. He can't even get a full monthly salary. Sometimes he doesn't even have a copper coin. In order to keep his position, at least he can get some money through other means to support his family.

However, an inconspicuous person like him was picked by the magistrate and ordered to do this or that. What qualifications does Tian Sheng have to refuse?However, in the eyes of other officials, this kind of behavior is treason. One night, several people beat Tian Sheng together.

Tian Sheng even suspected that his ears were misheard. Although he is a low-level official, he can listen and speak official language. Although it is not standard, it is really rare in Yaochang City.

Tian Sheng stammered, "My lord, do you want to spend your own money to hire someone to work in the yamen?"

Master Fan was well aware of Tian Sheng's situation, but he didn't say anything clearly. He hoped to draw Tian Sheng to the side of the adults to do things for them. Small people have the shrewdness of small people. He didn't think there was anything wrong with wooing Tian Sheng: "Yes , You see that there are not many people doing things in this yamen, so do you still want to do things? Since those people are not willing to do things for you, then you can just find someone who is willing to do things for you and replace them. Brother Tian, ​​do you think anyone would be willing to come over? If the adults spend five taels of silver to invite them every month, will it be a little less?"

Tian Sheng's heart was pounding when he heard it, and he almost wanted to jump up and shout that he was willing, but he reconfirmed according to his cautious temperament: "Is there really five taels of silver? Where did this money come from?"

Tian Sheng knew very well that the government office was very poor, and the fat ones were the officials in the government office, all of which went into their own pockets, so the new magistrate came to face a situation of no one and no money.

Master Fan smiled like a master: "Silver? My lord will never be short of money. Do you know where the richest place in the world is? It is naturally Jiangnan, but those rich businessmen in Jiangnan call our lord the God of Wealth." Lord, how many people want to get in touch with our lord and make money with us, but our lord is interested in being an official rather than doing business, otherwise we will definitely be the richest businessman in the Great Zhou Dynasty."

Tian Sheng gasped when he heard this, and suspected that Master Fan was talking big, because the prefect is so young, even if he started earning money right after he was born, how much could he earn?

Master Fan didn't ask Tian Sheng to believe it either, anyway, Tian Sheng would know later on that the adults in their family were not short of money: "Brother Tian, ​​you haven't answered my question yet, can you hire someone with five taels of silver a month. "

Tian Sheng twitched his head repeatedly: "Of course we can invite them, we can definitely invite them," he swallowed again, "Master, what about those of us who stayed behind?"

"You are willing to do things for the adults, and of course the adults will not treat you badly. Your treatment will only be better than those invited."

Tian Sheng swallowed his saliva with a thud, and the voice was so loud that he was ashamed, and quickly expressed his determination: "I, Tian Sheng, will definitely be willing to do things for adults. I can go up the mountain of swords and down into the sea of ​​fire."

Master Fan smiled, it seems that what your lord said is true, if you have money, you can play tricks, so why worry about this yamen being left alone?

So with Tian Sheng, a local snake, Master Fan successfully found a group of men who were so poor that they couldn't even wear pants. After they arrived at the yamen, they got two sets of newly made clothes, of course they belonged to the yamen. The uniforms are made of excellent materials, and everyone's eyes are almost popping out while holding the clothes.

Except for these two sets of clothes, Master Fan got Gu Zhao's words and gave them a monthly salary of two taels of silver in advance, and the rest will be distributed after the assessment at the end of the month. Everyone was so excited that they put the silver in their mouths and bit it. It's true. , really silver.

The benefits are given first, then the rules need to be followed, training is required, and those who are unqualified will be eliminated in the end. Most people here are so poor that they will be eliminated as soon as they hear it, so they have to desperately show their performance , Training and so on are not a problem at all, and even gesture to each other during the break.

When it's time to eat, everyone's eyes are turning green. There are not only white flour steamed buns, but also large pieces of meat. Is this really something they can eat?

"Eat well, you will have the strength to train when you are full, so don't try to save these meals and take them home. Only when you eat and become stronger can you better protect adults and do things for adults, you know?" Everyone is brainwashed.

"Yes, protect the adults and do things for the adults!"

Although each of them felt extremely regretful that they could not take it back to let their family members taste this taste, but thinking about it, the two taels of silver brought back could already feed the family, and at the end of the month, they could get another three taels of silver, which was enough When the family lives a good life, they can also taste the meat.

The offerings were delicious and delicious, and within two days, the mental outlook of this group of people changed a lot, and the news spread, and Master Fan didn't forbid them to spread the word. After regretting, some of them live better than ordinary people, but it is impossible to say that there is white flour, steamed buns and meat every day.

"Let's talk nonsense. It's probably only a day or two. If you eat like this every day, no matter how rich you are, you will still be poor." Some people don't believe it. Eating and drinking, but the Fang family's servants are still the most beautiful group of people when they come out.

"Look at the clothes they are wearing, tsk tsk, our clothes are all patched, and we don't know when we can get new ones, and their fabrics are better than ours, I heard they are very comfortable to wear."

"Could it be that the new magistrate comes from a big family in the Central Plains, so there is so much money for him to squander?"

"If I had known earlier, I would have stayed here first. Let's eat and drink first. It's five taels of silver a month!"

Fang Tongzhi was shocked when he heard the news. The Fang family is the richest family in Yaochang City, but he is reluctant to let him spend such money. Could it be that this Gu is so rich?Some people begged to come to him, worried that their position would be squeezed out, and they would not be able to go back in the future.

Tongzhi Fang lowered his face and said, "What's the rush? This is just the beginning. The yamen is a bottomless pit. I don't believe that he can keep spending money like this. Now it's just to win people's hearts. Let's see how long he can last."

He doesn't believe that Gu Zhao can keep spending money like this, if he can spend like this for three years, he will say he admires it.

You Fang knew this, and those people also settled down to see how Gu Zhao will act next. No one believed that he had such a lot of money, but seeing him throwing money like this, those people were also jealous. It would be great if all the money was given to them , What a waste to use it on those untouchables.

Patriarch Yan originally thought that his daughter was whimsical and let the magistrate become the son-in-law of the Yan family. Yan Ya caused him headaches every day at home. He did not take Gu Zhao, the magistrate, too seriously, but he was worried that it would cause a estrangement in Fang Tongzhi's heart. But at this moment, Patriarch Yan's heart was about to twitch when he heard that Gu Zhao had thrown all that money on those untouchables.

Yan Ya's elder brother also persuaded his father: "Father just has too many worries, he is just a little boy, let my sister be satisfied, then I will have a son-in-law who is a magistrate, and father has a son-in-law who is a magistrate, this is a glorious thing. This can also make my sister calm down, what a great thing."

"Don't mess around behind your back. In Yaochang City, we have to listen to Fang Tongzhi in the end. Let me accept whatever thoughts you have in your mind. The camp of our four families can't be broken." Don't think that Patriarch Yan is a rough person. People didn't see what his son was thinking. He wanted to replace the Fang family and make the Yan family the largest family in Yaochang City.

"However, you can also give him a try. Let's use Ya'er's incident to test the prefect's attitude, and then ask someone to tell Fang Tongzhi."

For the people of Yaochang City, their new magistrate has made a very high-profile appearance. The new magistrate was almost robbed in the street, and the people have a deeper understanding of the power of the Yan family. Even the magistrate dared to rape him. Robbing, and something that the Yan family dare not do?The sky is high and the emperor is far away, and the emperor can't make decisions for their common people. Second, the new magistrate is really good-looking and young. The image is not the same, and the third is that in the past two days, the government's behavior of smashing money has also caused a lot of repercussions among the common people.

"If I had known that when that boy Tian Sheng came to ask, I would have agreed. It would be at least five taels of silver a month, and I would eat and drink for free every day. All I ate were good things."

"Don't be an afterthought. When Tian Sheng came here, you were obviously afraid of offending the four families and dared not agree. Don't think that the magistrate wants to accept everyone."

This incident really made many people who lack food and drink very envious. They wish they could replace it with their bodies. They don’t want so much, even half, no, a quarter is enough. There are still many people who secretly found Tian Sheng, ask him when Mr. Gu will recruit people again, and let Tian Sheng find them first. They are not afraid of those four families. If you have a full meal, you won't be a starving ghost.

"Look at the current battle, the magistrate is clearly fighting against those four families, what will be the final result?"

"It's not that the magistrate wants to fight. I didn't see that after the magistrate came, what was left to the magistrate was almost an empty shell office. Fang Tongzhi took the lead in asking for leave due to illness. Is he really sick? These people made it clear that they want to follow The prefect can't make it through, what can the prefect do?"

"Master Zhifu is young after all, and he was very aggressive when he first came here, but after a while, Lord Zhifu will know that if he wants to live here safely for a few years, he has to compromise with those four families, alas..." This is not true. Those who are optimistic about Gu Zhao can't help it, there are too many precedents.

"Something happened, the Yan family sent a matchmaker to the Yamen to propose a marriage for the tigress!" Someone shouted outside, causing the crowd to explode in an instant.

The Yan family actually went to propose marriage!
