Ding Tian's Ancient Life

After the incident was reported, everyone was waiting for a reply from above, but they also knew that it would not be so fast, so the person who reported it came back with a team of people.

"Master, this is from the Lin family in Fucheng." The reporter went to see the magistrate Xu after returning.

The person who came was a middle-aged man in a green coat and a small hat. He looked like a housekeeper. When he saw the county magistrate Xu, he knelt down and kowtowed: "The young one is the big housekeeper of the Lin family, Lin Daming. I have seen the county magistrate."

"Lin Mansion?" County magistrate Xu was taken aback for a moment, then looked at the messenger officer who led him in: "What's going on?"

"Master, those two rescued little girls belong to their family..."

It turned out that the two twin girls were the third and fourth daughters of the Lin family master. The first child of the Lin family master was their eldest son, and the second child was also a boy, but the second son was not in good health. Has already started to take care of the family business, the second son is weak, and the two younger sisters are the family's treasures.

As a result, there were several fairs in Fucheng a few years ago, and the two young ladies had fun... This is lost!

Hearing that he was found, the head butler of the Lin family came. Seeing the two little girls, he couldn't help but cry: "Miss! The master and wife are both sick, and they haven't had a good year!"

The two little girls also knew the housekeeper, hugging him and crying.

Butler Lin didn't come empty-handed. He brought five large carts of gifts, two carts to the magistrate, the remaining two carts were shared equally among the people in the yamen, and the remaining cart was given to Ding Tian.

There are not too many gifts in a cart, but the colorfully dyed muslin from Fucheng is very popular among women, and there are two big food boxes for common snacks such as sweet sesame candy, Changbai cake, and red bean cake. It's cold, and this thing can't be broken.

Red envelopes were given to everyone as a thank you.

Only then did the two little girls take them home.

But there are also a few servants left here to watch, waiting for the fate of those kidnappers, so that they can go back and tell the master, butler Lin wiped his tears and complained to others: "Master and Madam are both sick, and the young master has to work at home again." , I have to look outside again... I have to go to the ceremony during the Chinese New Year. I am so busy that my feet don't touch the ground. The second young master is dragging his body, so I don't dare to let him worry about it.

That's why it was a butler who came, not someone from the Lin family.

Everyone expressed their understanding, after all, did you lose your child....

Ding Tian took Ding Kan and the others to live in the Yamen, but Ding Kan went to the old man's house in the third year of junior high school, and when he came back, he brought his brother-in-law and his wife, and his wife was in charge of the women's prison together , Uncle, like him, is in charge of the cell.

"Tian'er, do you think this will work?" Ding Kan was also a little nervous, for fear that Ding Tian would shake his head.

"Of course, the women's prison needs manpower, and there is a shortage of manpower here!" Ding Tian said, "As long as they don't mind being jailers^"

"I don't mind, I don't mind!" Ding Kan quickly waved his hands: "I'm so poor, why should I be taboo!"

So, for the first time, the cell was full!

Although the matter has passed, but because of the Chinese New Year, the enthusiasm has not gone down, the nine villages in the whole county, and the people in each village take their children very seriously!

Until the fifteenth.

There is nothing to see on the fifteenth day in the county. There are a few colored lanterns, and more small lanterns, big red ones. It looks festive for Chinese New Year.

But after the fifteenth day, when Fucheng opened the seal, the first thing it did was to affirm and reward the "smuggling case" in Niujiao County.

Of course, County Magistrate Xu was the first fire that the new official took office, and it was booming, and he was notified and commended by his superiors.

The headhunter also got a bounty: a bonus of 100 taels of silver.

This is what Ding Tian thinks, but everyone envies Ding Tian even more.

Even if he distributed the credit and the entire county government received bonuses from top to bottom, everyone still envied him.

Because Ding Tian not only received a bonus of 100 taels of silver, but he also received the benefits of a meat pig and two meat sheep as the first contribution.

And a reward of four bolts of muslin, eight bolts of cheesecloth, and ten sheepskins.

In addition, there is another important news: Prefect Du even directly awarded Ding Tian the post of prison supervisor!

This is an official from the ninth rank, although this rank is not as big as a sesame... well, the sesame official is a county magistrate from the seventh rank, or the seventh rank, but he is still an official!

What does the warden do?

Ding Tian immediately went to investigate, and only then did he know that according to Daqing's rules and regulations, local administrative regions are divided into provinces, prefectures, prefectures, and counties. At the same time, there are Shuntian Prefecture (Beijing) and Yingtian Prefecture (Nanjing) , in the above-mentioned areas, there are also prison settings.

In the province, the jailer of the procuratorate is in charge of prison affairs in the province. In addition, the chief envoy in charge of administration does not have a prison supervisor to supervise the prisons of the province.

There are no wardens in charge of the prisons in all the provinces, because no one will value the prison boss.

It can be said that Du Zhifu conferred an official position on him, and it can be said that he valued him very much.

From then on, Ding Tian was an official.

In Niujiao County, however, there is no such thing as a jailer. In the entire Daqing area, the state and county prisons are generally managed by the local chief executive.

What's more, Beidi belongs to the frontier area, and half of the entire Beifeng Mansion is military camps and military control areas, and there is no one there.

Of the remaining half, a quarter is fields, a quarter is forests, and a quarter is pastures, and the last quarter is human villages and city-states.

The land is vast and sparsely populated, so there is nothing to be busy with so many people.

So... Ding Tian is the only prison officer in the entire Beifeng Mansion.

Although the grade is the lowest, he is also an official.

"Our old Ding's family is also an official's family!" The second uncle jumped up in surprise.

"Okay!" Ding Tian quickly waved his hands: "The youngest official from the ninth rank, please don't go out and make people laugh."

"What's the joke? From the ninth grade...that's an official." The second uncle is very stubborn now: "It's an official, it's an official!"

Ding Tian covered his head: "A person from the ninth grade, who is not even an official as big as a sesame seed... What kind of official is he?

No one listened to these words, and Dingjia Village became a sensation.

Even the village chief came to Ding Tian's house: "Being an official is a good thing. This is a good thing for Guangzong Yaozu. Our old Ding's family also has officials."

Ding Tian froze: "Hehe...丨!!"

The old chief also said: "This is a good thing. We need to put a grave for your parents, as well as your grandparents, great grandparents... let the ancestors know that the younger generation will have a future."

"...Haha...you are happy." Ding Tian had nothing to say.

Because the whole village was in trouble, it was already fifteen years old, and there was still time to go to the grave, so the second uncle bought a lot of sacrifices.

The third uncle even chopped off the big pig's head and cleaned up the liaomaoer: "This must be used when going to the grave. This is a good thing, a very good thing!"

Even my uncle ran over when he heard about it: "Are you an official?"

"From the ninth grade, the smallest official position..." Ding Tian was numb to explaining.

"That's also an official..." Sure enough, what the uncle and the second uncle said was the same.

Ding Tian was already numb.

Sure enough, in the first month of the month, he was taking Ding Kan and the others to familiarize themselves with the prison cell, and on the second day of February, he ate pork head meat, and then...he was going to Fucheng.

Because he was about to leave, the people in the yamen pooled up the money together and treated him to a farewell meal. Although they didn't get along for a long time, Ding Tian knew how to behave, and he was from a prominent local family, so there was no friction with them. , each one was a bit reluctant.

And Ding Tian is not leaving, he is promoted!

Ding Tian introduced Ding Kan and the others at the right time, and the group got to know each other for a while. How to get along with each other in the future is their business.

The handover has been completed here, and he has entrusted Ding Kan with all the land at home: "The income from the prison can be saved, and the land still needs to be planted."

Ding Kan's family has a large population, and now he has new income, and his life has improved somewhat.

"Of course, if my family doesn't farm, what will I eat?" Ding Kan said happily, "I will send you the future rent to Fucheng."

"As long as you're happy..." Ding Tian wiped his face, "Then I'm leaving."

He has already packed all his things and went home, and he is going to Fucheng to take up his post.

"I'll send you off." Ding Kan was indeed grateful to Ding Tian, ​​who taught them everything and kept nothing private.

"it is good."

In fact, many people sent Ding Tian away, but what about Ding Tian himself?

With 500 taels of silver bills, ten silver ingots of ten taels of silver, seven hanging new copper coins, eight sets of clothes, four pairs of shoes, two pairs of boots, and two sets of quilts, made out of the feathers he accumulated during the New Year A feather school.

Ding Tian's family only has a small carriage, because it is winter, so it is the kind with a shed, but the cart pulls things. Ding Tian originally wanted to drive the carriage by himself, but the second and third uncles felt sorry for him and hired a driver for him. Let Ding Tian sit in the carport... Although the place in the carport is not big, it can be sheltered from the wind anyway, which is better than being outside in the cold.

Fucheng is three days away from the county seat. If you walk slowly, it may take four days.

They left on the first day, and there was a big cart shop on the way to rest. On the second day, there was also a big cart shop. On the third day, there was an inn, and on the fourth day, they could enter Fucheng.

However, it was a little worrying for him to go alone in a carriage. Fortunately, Fucheng sent twelve policemen, and asked Peking University to send twenty men and horses to help escort these kidnappers.

The case of these kidnappers is serious, and they have to be tried in Fucheng, and then sentenced. For such a crime, the best end is to go to the front of the army and charge into battle.

So they didn't go in a carriage, but in a carriage, with five or 60 people walking together.

Such a team can't go fast, so they arranged it according to the four-day journey, and the leader of the team was a headhunter from Fucheng, called Jing Tian.

When Ding Tian heard this name, he laughed for a long time.

This one is also interesting. Although he is a headhunter, he is also tall and big, but he talks very funny: "Brothers came here as soon as the spring came, and got a good start."

"Just after February [-], I'm going to take office. Fortunately, you are here, and I can take a companion to go with me." Ding Tian was not polite: "From now on, we will work together on errands."

"Your errand is different from ours!" Jing Tian gritted his teeth: "You are guarding the house, we have to be outside in the wind and rain."

"But you know a lot!"''

Everyone carried the sedan chair, and everyone praised each other. The atmosphere was harmonious. Although the prisoners were walking, they also walked, but the prisoners were wearing shackles. This thing... Ding Tian felt that it was more uncomfortable than wearing handcuffs... Well, these are ancient handcuffs.

These kidnappers are all carrying shackles and walking on foot.

Can the flail made of wood sink, at least twenty catties.

Not only that, because they are so hateful, they still wear shackles around their ankles, in case they run away.

A large group of people officially set out on the road on the fourth day of February, and some villages can be seen along the way. Farmers are now starting to repair their farm tools. Although the wind is still so strong, when it blows, it is not as cold as in winter.

Ding Tian is from modern times. Although he is not a professional talk show host, he can still say some classic wisecracks, so after walking for a day, everyone is happy and the atmosphere is very good. The first place to rest... A large car shop built on the edge of the forest.

Ding Tian got out of the car and saw the big car shop, he was speechless immediately: "Is this the big car shop where we settled?"

"This is an old store, we often stay here." Tian Jing pushed open the door: "Come out, let's stay here!"

"Come on!" It was a delicate female voice that responded.
