Su Xun leaned close to Su Yue's ear and whispered.

Su Xunqiao blushed and glared at him, then let go of him and wiped away her tears.

She also felt just now that her brother has really grown up.

Chapter 496 The new magistrate of Su County takes office

After embracing Su Yue, Su Xun looked at the current county magistrate of Chen County again, and cupped his hands: "Congratulations, sir, for your promotion."

Even without asking, he knew that making room for himself would definitely be a promotion, not a demotion.

"We're both happy and happy, all because of the honor of the champion." Although the county magistrate has been promoted and is supposed to have a higher official position than Su Xun, he is very polite.

Because he knew that the person in front of him could not be viewed with his current official position.

It depends on his future official position.

Now the whole Chu region knows that this famous new top scholar will definitely be the prime minister in the future.

The left and right prime ministers are extremely human ministers, and the real one is under one person and above ten thousand people.

So even though he has been promoted to a higher level now, maybe a year later he will still be standing still, and Su Xun will directly become his superior.

One has to take a long-term view.

At noon, the Su Mansion directly booked all the restaurants in the county to treat guests to dinner. As long as they are from Chen County, they can eat for free for a day today, and the Su family will pay for it.

The reason why he is so arrogant is that the Su family is rich.

Another reason is that the largest restaurants in the city are all owned by the Su Mansion.

Half of the entire Chen county belongs to the Su family.

Su Xun's nicknames are Wenquxing and Jingjiehu.

And Su Yue's nickname is Su Bancheng Sumerian.

From Su Xun's point of view, his sister's business talent is almost full.

In the evening, Su Xun and Xiuxiu went back to their room to rest.

Xue'er and Yu'er are reporting to Su Yue about Su Xun's stay in the capital.

"Miss, the young master and the young lady are doing that in the yard during the day, and the noise is really loud."

"Miss, the young master let the young lady lie on the table at night, it's so embarrassing."

"The young master asked the young lady..."

"Bah, bah, stop, stop." Su Yue was blushing and interrupted the two of them: "It's just these things, is there anything else?"

"It seems... there is no more." The two sisters were stunned for a moment, then shook their heads and said.

Of course there are.

Su Xun bullied them, but they didn't say anything.

Su Yue rolled her eyes helplessly: "You two idiots, did I send you here just to let you watch live spring palaces?"

"Miss." The two looked at Su Yue aggrievedly, and they didn't want to, but the young master never took them out.

Then they can only focus on things at home.

But at home, the young master only does that kind of thing with the young wife, and they can't help it.

Su Yue waved her hand inexplicably irritatedly: "Okay, okay, go down and rest."

"Oh, Miss, go to bed early too." The two little girls ran away quickly.

Su Yue sat alone in the yard, and based on what the two little girls said just now, she imagined the scene of Su Xun and Xiuxiu messing around.

Then I couldn't help but shivered.

"Bah, this bad guy will bully women, and so does Xiuxiu, who actually let him do whatever he wants."

Thinking about being hit when she hugged Su Xun today, she blushed again.

...............

In the early morning of the next day, Su Xun put on a brand new official uniform and went to the county government under Xiuxiu's service.

After completing the handover with the county magistrate, he officially announced his appointment as the new county magistrate of Chen County.

Su Xun's tenure as county magistrate went smoothly, because all the county magistrates are locals.

Everyone knows the notoriety of Jingjiehu.

Many people's daughters-in-law or older sisters were teased and teased by Su Xun.

So no one dared to stab.

This made Su Xun a little helpless, he still wanted to pick on these people's thorns, and then show off.

But it turned out that these people cooperated exceptionally.

Whatever he wants, find him right away.

Whatever he says, do it right away.

It made Su Xun want to get a new official to take office, but he didn't know where to start the three fires.

That's the strategy of these people.

They had discussed it a long time ago, as long as they didn't make mistakes, then Su Xun would have no chance to deal with them.

That's why each of these people has become a model representative of the grassroots officialdom.

Then the entire county government became Su Xun's voice, not to mention opposing him, not even a single person dared to yawn in front of him.

Since no one in the county government dared to assassinate, Su Xun went directly to the military camp to find trouble. He had to control the army.

A battalion of 500 troops was stationed in Chen County, under the command of a school lieutenant named Li Yi.

Generally, there are no troops stationed in county towns, but Chen County has a special location, close to the edge of the Wanshou Mountain Range, so a battalion was specially stationed there.

The county magistrate has another title, Bailihou.

That is to say, in a county, the county magistrate is equivalent to a lord with a fief. The county magistrate is the most centralized official position, but because the official is small, no one will think about it.

However, when he came to the barracks full of expectations, he was disappointed again.

Knowing that he was going, Li Yi gathered all the soldiers and waited respectfully for a long time, obedient to him.

Because the army's military salary has been deducted by civilian officials, they only paid half of the military salary in half a year, and each of them was really poor.

Everyone knew that the Su family was rich, so they licked up Su Xun. Maybe Su Xun could reward them with two crooked melons and split dates?

What's more, we all know that Su Xun is valued by the emperor, so if Su Xun helps to urge the army to pay, maybe he can be urging him down?

Emphasis on civil and military, the army is so pitiful.

So the military camp is more respectful to Su Xun than the county government.

However, after entering the barracks, Su Xun's original idea of ​​finding fault with Li Wei changed.

If he didn't know that this was a military camp, he would have thought he had walked into a beggar's den.

The soldiers were all weak, their armor was worn out, and their faces were yellow and emaciated.

Knowing that Da Chu's army was miserable, but if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Su Xun would not have believed it.

The country's most important weapon has fallen to such a point, if there is no Heavenly Sword Sect, the Chu country would have perished long ago!

This kind of situation made Su Xun think of the Great Song Dynasty on Earth, with a prosperous culture, emphasizing literature over martial arts, withholding military pay, adding gravel to military rations, and later Song was destroyed.

Isn't the current Dachu just a copy of Dasong?

"The food and grass for the future army will be delivered by my Su family." Su Xun said to Li Yi.

Li Yi, a man of eight feet, almost cried: "The last general thanked the county lord on behalf of the brothers."

Su Xun patted him on the shoulder, and was not in the mood to continue watching, and left the barracks directly.

After returning from the military camp, Su Xun immediately started drastic reforms.

The first point is to prohibit residents from defecating indiscriminately, and allocate funds to build a public beta.

Don't think too much about the ancient city, because there are no public toilets. Once you want to go to the toilet, you can find a corner where there is no one.

The second point is to rectify the county schools. All those who do not study hard will go home to farm.

The third point is that the army helps to carry out street renovations, and the county government pays salaries.

fourth point……

One order after another was issued in this way.

Many orders are simply unreasonable in the eyes of people of this era.

But no one dared to object, who made that uncle nickname Jingjiehu, not to mention that Su Xun had the support of the army.

Under Su Xun's intentional or unconscious brainwashing of the 500 people in the military camp in Chen County, they already knew that what they were eating was the Su family's food, and what they were serving was the Su family's bowl.

Everything was going on in such an orderly manner.

It wasn't until two days later that everyone suddenly heard that Pang Hu, the deputy commander of the Su family's guards, took a fancy to the money, robbed a large amount of money and jewels, and took a few brothers to the Yandang Mountain outside the city to become a bandit.

This was naturally arranged by Su Xun.

After all, there is an idiom called Yang Kou Zizhi.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 497 is developing in an orderly manner

Although Chen County is close to the edge of Wanshou Mountain, it is too edge, and basically there will be no beast tide.

And there are no bandits near Chen County.

Therefore, a battalion stationed here is completely sufficient, and it is basically impossible to expand the army.

Therefore, County Magistrate Su gave full play to the international spirit of creating difficulties without difficulties.

It was under such circumstances that Pang Hu took a dozen servants to rob money and go up the mountain to become a bandit.

For this "betrayal" behavior, Su County Magistrate was very angry, but Pang Hu's force was superb, insidious and cunning, and several times of encirclement and suppression failed.

Pang Hu's team of bandits also grew rapidly inexplicably, exceeding a hundred people in a short period of time, specializing in robbing passing caravans.

And the caravans of the Su family are the most in and out of Chen County, so they are often robbed, and this group of bandits has become more and more powerful⊙ω⊙.

The magistrate of Su County was very "angry", and wrote a note and sent it to the county seat, saying that the local battalion in Chen County had neglected training, had low morale, and had no combat effectiveness at all.

So he asked the county to send troops to suppress the bandits, or to allow him to organize the people to suppress the bandits in Chen County, for which he was willing to pay for it.

The magistrate of Kaiyang County took a look and agreed to the second point without hesitation.

Because sending troops from the county to suppress bandits requires the county to be responsible for money and food, and they dare not squeeze oil and water in Chen County. After all, Chen County is Su Zhuangyuan's territory.

So it's better to let Su Xun recruit his own manpower to protect the city against bandits, at least he doesn't need to spend money from the county.

In this way, Su Xun recruited another [-] militiamen in Chen County to start training in the name of preventing banditry.

Although they are called militias, their equipment is better than that of the regular army, all of which were obtained secretly by the Fourth Prince.

Three hundred bandits, five hundred militiamen, and five hundred garrisons, Su Xun had 300 men in his hands.

These 300 people all practice Qi training.

In order for them to practice faster, Su Xun disguised himself and ransacked many small sects to rob cultivation resources, such as magic spells and medicines.

Su Xun not only looted sects to rob resources, he also robbed people.

Because these sect disciples who are already cultivated are ready-made sources of soldiers, they are all elite soldiers.

In this world, Su Xun is like a fish in water, and his current cultivation level is already at the early stage of refining xu and dao, so he can be considered a big shot in this world.

So looting those small sects is as easy as playing, and there is no one who can beat them.
