Liaozhai Great Sage

Calculating the time, one month is almost here.

Li Xiuyuan did not break the appointment.

In the early morning of that day, there was a sea of ​​people in front of the Li Mansion, and the people gathered together.

A dispatched account manager held the roster at this time and shouted loudly: "Qi Dong? Qi Dong is here to collect the money."

"Here, here, I'm here." A man named Qi Dong hurriedly squeezed over and raised his hands.

The guy next to him handed him twelve months' money.

"Thank you, boss, thank you, boss." The man named Qi Dong took the monthly money, was surprised and happy, then knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Li's house a few times in gratitude, and then quickly returned to the crowd.

Among the crowd was a woman who was leading a child. Seeing that her husband had received twelve months' money, she was also very happy from ear to ear. She only felt that there was hope for her future life.

"Liu Er, where is Liu Er? Come here to get the money." The account manager shouted again.

Soon another man squeezed over excitedly: "Here, here."

Liu Er quickly received the money, and was also very happy, but he did not forget to kneel down to Li's house a few times to thank the Li family for their kindness.

The people in the city knew that if Li Xiuyuan hadn't provided relief this time, if Li Xiuyuan hadn't cured the plague, all the people in the city would have died, and the people would remember this kindness.

The matter of distributing monthly money requires fairness and justice, so Li Xiuyuan truthfully counted it in front of the people, so that no one would doubt it. This is to establish a letter.

"Zhou Da, Zhou Da, come to get the monthly money."

"Here we come." Soon, the monthly money continued to be distributed. A man received the monthly money excitedly, and then left quickly.

"Wait, wait, I'm Zhou Da, he's not Zhou Da, he's an imposter, his name is Ma Qiu, he's a gangster in the city, he's never been employed by the Li family."

But as soon as the man walked away, another person who claimed to be Zhou Da rushed over and said hurriedly.

"What?" The accountant was surprised when he saw this.

I didn't expect that there would be fraudulent claims.

"Wait a minute, I'm going to ask the young master about this." After the account manager finished speaking, he hurried back to the mansion.

As soon as he left, the people in front of the Li Mansion were filled with righteous indignation.

"That Maqiu is really vicious. He even dared to claim Mr. Li's money. Aren't you afraid of retribution?"

"Bah, what, this Ma Qiu is really a disgrace to our Guo Beicheng, I can't stand it anymore."

"Damn it, you bastard, when you see him later, you must give him a good lesson."

Chapter 2 Thirty New Water God

Li Xiuyuan was sitting in the lobby with the blind Taoist, his master at the moment.

He didn't say a word and waited quietly.

The blind man held the book of life and death in his hands, and kept flipping through it. The papers on it seemed endless, no matter how much he flipped through, he couldn't finish it.

Several hours have passed since the beginning.

It wasn't until this time that the blind Taoist put down the book of life and death, a light flashed in his eyes, and then he smiled a little.

"What happened?" Li Xiuyuan asked.

The blind man smiled and said, "It is indeed a great merit to quell the plague this time. A total of 12 people have been saved. I remember it clearly in life and death. You are right, the number of days can be changed. .”

Li Xiuyuan shook his head and said, "It's not that the number of days can be changed, but that someone falsely claims the number of days."

"That makes sense," said the blind man.

"But you are betting against the gods in the sky, how do you plan to govern this Yangzhou boundary?" the blind Taoist said again.

Li Xiuyuan said: "I don't have a clue yet, I need to think about this matter more."

"If you manage it well, this is a matter of merit. If you don't manage it well, you may suffer a lot of disasters, but this is normal. You are a natural saint, so how can you not experience disasters." The blind Taoist said.

Li Xiuyuan said: "I don't have a clue about what happened in Yangzhou, but I have a general idea about what happened in Guo Beicheng."

"Oh, tell me about it with me as a teacher." The blind man said.

"Mu Daoren is the next City God, and Tieshan and other eight hundred Yin soldiers will assist him, which is believed to be enough to control the boundaries of Guobei City."

The blind Taoist nodded and said: "There are plenty of manpower, this place can't be messed up, the temple will be rebuilt in that dilapidated temple, the original Town God's Temple has been occupied by the government, I'm afraid it won't be taken back, but someone is in charge of the land boundary, what about the waters?" ?”

"The Eight Great Kings can be in charge of the waters of this boundary. It has saved many people in Guobei City before, and has done a lot of good deeds. It is enough to be the water god of this boundary." Li Xiuyuan said.

The blind Taoist calculated with his fingers, and said with a smile: "It turns out that it is a turtle spirit, and it can also become the water god of this land, so this is the end of this city, but there is more than one city in Yangzhou. The situation is much more complicated.”

"I know, but it will take some time. Besides, didn't the gods in the sky give me a year? Within this year, I should be able to come up with a perfect plan." Li Xiuyuan said.

After that, I discussed other things with the blind Taoist, most of which were ghosts and gods.

"Young master, when the monthly money was distributed just now, someone took ten taels of silver. I don't know how to deal with it?"

The account manager came to the lobby at this time, and told what happened just now, while looking a little nervous and cautious, for fear of being punished.

"Someone pretended to be paid?"

Li Xiuyuan frowned and said: "However, there are so many people here, it is normal for there to be false leaders, but this trend cannot be long, otherwise there will be more false leaders. You should inform the people first, who will catch the false leaders Go to the government, who will get the twelve taels of false wages on him, I believe that at this time, Mr. Song Yuansong really hopes to use this to build his prestige."

The plague is over.

The rest is governance. If that Song Yuan doesn't want to work in vain, he will definitely be eager to perform at this time, and catching bandits is one of his achievements.

"What are you still doing here? Why don't you continue to pay monthly money?" Li Xiuyuan said.

"Yes, yes, it's the eldest young master." The account manager quickly responded, and then withdrew.

Li Xiuyuan said again: "Be careful when distributing wages. Although the people are simple, they can't condone those who have evil intentions."

The account manager nodded again and again, and then retreated just now.

Soon, when the account manager went out of the mansion and told about this matter, immediately there were rogues and idlers in the city, their eyes lit up, and then they left aggressively, obviously to arrest the horse who pretended to claim money. Hill.

After all, Mr. Li has spoken, whoever can catch him and send him to the government will be able to take the money from him.

Although Guobei City is big, there is nothing unfamiliar to the idlers in the city. I believe that Ma Qiu will soon be in trouble.

A few days passed after the aftermath.

The plague in the city has completely dissipated, and order has begun to gradually restore.
