Farmer’s Blessed Girl

Chapter 2886 Alliance

Bai Shan went as soon as he said it, and the next day he made an excuse to go to Qingzhou City to see the county magistrate.

The magistrate Lu received an official document from the imperial court only yesterday, saying that the previously appointed Governor Wang was unable to take office due to illness, and now it is Governor Guo.

He hadn't had time to send someone out to inquire about the origin of this Governor Guo, when Bai Shan came to look for him.

He not only has Guo Cheng's background, but even Guo Cheng's resume, which is a bit scary, and the county magistrate Lu was speechless for a long time.

When he reacted, he smiled and said, "The Magistrate Bai is indeed from a famous family. Only here did I know that the prefect was replaced, and the Magistrate Bai has already figured out the origin of the person."

Bai Shan smiled and said, "It's just relying on a few friends in the DPRK and China to inquire about the news."

Only then did the county magistrate remember that this person is not only the prince's confidant, but also his teacher is the prince's current attendant, and the junior brother is the concubine. He will not only be better informed than the officials who came from the poor family, but also better than the officials. The other disciples are also well-informed from aristocratic families.

His eyes flashed, and he asked, "The magistrate Bai came to Qingzhou City ahead of time to wait for the new governor?"

Bai Shan smiled and said, "It will take a few days for Inspector Guo to take office. Although the lower officials really want to welcome Inspector Guo here, it is obviously impossible. There are still many things to deal with in Beihai County."

Bai Shan took the opportunity to talk about the salt farm. He arrested five people this time. It can be said that he arrested the upper and middle and upper layers of the first floor in the salt farm, and even took out the stolen money. The county chief Youfang was leading the accounts calculated by the accountant, but this time even the chief clerk of Song did not dare to ask for mercy. "

Moreover, Bai Shan acted openly and directly, and directly asked the Song clerk to go back to rest at the request of his relatives. He is not in the county office at this moment.

Bai Shan hopes that the Qingzhou Prefect's Office can accept the five people he arrested, and he can immediately issue a verdict, and tomorrow the prisoners can be escorted to Qingzhou City for review.

County magistrate Lu: "...You directly arrested the steward of the salt field, and the Song family didn't respond?"

Bai Shan shook his head and said, "No."

The county magistrate only felt that his heart had suffered a heavy blow. Why, why did the Song family bite around like a mad dog when he attacked the Song family, but did not react when he met Bai Shan?

County magistrate Lu didn't think that the Song family had compromised, so it could only be...

He frowned and said, "Magistrate Bai, you should be careful. The Song family and the Zhao family are very powerful in Beihai County. They really want to destroy you, and it will be difficult for the county government to continue operating."

Bai Shan nodded, expressing his understanding, and asked, "Can the county magistrate take over these five prisoners on behalf of Qingzhou City?"

"I don't have a problem with this. No matter how long the Song family's hands are, they can't reach Qingzhou City. They can only throw money at most, but with me, it's useless for them to throw money," said the county magistrate. side……"

He was still worried, "The Song family really didn't do anything? What happened to the salt field?"

Bai Shan smiled slightly and said, "The salt field has almost stopped working now. Once the stewards were arrested, the workers became anxious. No matter how the yamen urged them, they were unwilling to go to work."

When the magistrate Lu heard this, his eyes widened, "Don't you know that Beihai County sends five tans of salt to Qingzhou City every season?"

"I know," Bai Shan said, "Isn't it more than a month away from the next season?"

County magistrate Lu: "...If there are no workers to cook salt, what will happen to Beihai County's finances?"

He said: "County offices in all regions will keep enough salary for their officials when they turn in their taxes. When I left office, I only kept my salary for March, and after April, the salary will also be paid. Without the salt field, Song Zhuzhu can give me the salary. Do you keep the money?"

Bai Shandao: "When I arrested those five people, I copied out a lot of things."

The county magistrate said: "Those things are stolen goods, you can't use them until the governor's office has reviewed them."

"It doesn't matter, I can borrow money to support it first."

County magistrate Lu: "...who borrowed it from?"

"Me!" Bai Shan pointed to himself and said, "I'm not short of money, just a few months' salary, I can still afford it."

County Magistrate Lu: ... I hate it.

The financial expenditure of the entire county government is not just salary. No, no, even if it's just a salary, that's a lot of money.

The magistrate Lu didn't want to talk to Bai Shan anymore, but he also showed his strength. The magistrate Lu knew that he had to choose.

He wasn't stupid, of course Bai Shan didn't come to him just to communicate about a few prisoners while taking advantage of Guo Shishi's appointment.

In fact, this is indeed beneficial to both parties.

The county magistrate Lu has been operating in Qingzhou for many years. Several counties in Qingzhou have been involved in the grain and herbal material cases. The one who is still safe is the county magistrate.

It can be said that he is currently the one who knows the situation in Qingzhou the most and is also the most prestigious person in the counties of Qingzhou.

If he is willing to help Bai Shan, Bai Shan and Zhou Man will be much smoother in Qingzhou in the future;

The county magistrate can also get a lot of benefits.

The information of Bai Shan and Zhou Man's contacts in the court is enough for him to covet.

What the county magistrate needs to weigh is whether to cooperate with Bai Shan or the new governor Guo?

Seemingly seeing the hesitation of the county magistrate, Bai Shan smiled slightly and said, "I forgot to tell your lord that this person, Mrs. Guo and Mrs. Liu Shangshu of the Ministry of Household, came from the Xuyang Guo family, and is Mrs. Liu Shangshu's nephew."

The county magistrate was still puzzled.

With a deep smile on Bai Shan's face, he said, "Master Zhou's own niece is married to Liu Shangshu's young grandson. Speaking of which, Liu Huan is not only our classmate, but also our niece-in-law."

The county magistrate Lu reacted, and finally couldn't help raising his hand to cover his chest. His heart ached, what else could he choose?

He asked, "Since this relationship exists, why didn't Magistrate Bai wait for the Governor Guo to arrive before sending him up?"

Bai Shandao: "I don't like Governor Guo's behavior. Compared with Governor Guo, I trust Magistrate Lu more, but I won't be an enemy of Governor Guo either. When Governor Guo arrives, if there is any offense, I will do so. I also ask the county magistrate to forgive me."

He smiled and said: "If we can form an alliance this time, no matter what the words are on the surface, in private, I will go to the county magistrate Lu. I just hope that the county magistrate will not say anything about it."

County magistrate Lu raised his eyebrows and vaguely felt Bai Shan's plan.

He was silent for a long time, and finally nodded in response, and the two officially reached a covenant.

Bai Shan was satisfied, and the county magistrate Helu said, "I will have someone bring the prisoner over tomorrow."

"it is good."

At this time, Man Bao was taking Wen Tiandong to get acquainted with the medical office. By the way, he took him around the county town. Of course, he was not wandering around, but walking around the streets with a banner of a free clinic and a medicine box. Treat people.

Wen Tiandong followed Zhou Man with a sluggish expression, unable to understand how he was a good former medical assistant at the Taiyuan Hospital, and now he is a doctor in the medical department.

See you tomorrow
