I really don't want to be a rebel [infrastructure]

Luo Shixing looked at Wang Antong in a daze and repeated his words: "You arrested all these county magistrates?"

Although Wang Antong was tired, he nodded cheerfully: "Yes."

"No, what are you arresting them for?" Luo Shixing didn't understand why this dog was going crazy, and he subconsciously looked at Cheng Jingwei.

Cheng Jingwei immediately said, "I don't know either."

Wang Antong explained: "Yesterday I sent people to conduct a strict interrogation, and I found out the mastermind of the turmoil. After arresting the mastermind, I found out that there are people behind the forces entrenched in Jiaozhou City. They are the leaders of these three counties. County magistrates, those people also said that these things were ordered by those county magistrates."

Luo Shixing was stunned for a while, and at first he didn't understand: "What are these county magistrates doing to intervene in the city? It's a bit far away from their territory?"

Cheng Jingwei sat at the side and poured him a glass of water and said, "I'm afraid these county magistrates regarded the governor of Jiaozhou as their own."

Wang Antong nodded immediately: "That's right, that's what I sent people to interrogate them."

Luo Shixing knew it well, and this was not surprising. The governors sent by the imperial court had repeatedly smashed their halberds here, and in the end there would definitely be a situation - although the post of governor of Jiaozhou was vacant, no one dared to come.

Then at that time, one must be selected among these county magistrates in Jiaozhou, otherwise the position of governor will have to be vacant all the time.

These county magistrates felt that they had hope, so before they were promoted, they wanted to secretly rectify the forces in Jiaozhou. After taking over the governor of Jiaozhou, they would directly put Jiaozhou City on the right track. Impressive is also good.

What if there is a chance to transfer him away in the future?

Although it is difficult to enter the center, people always have dreams.

During this process, they didn't pay much attention to Luo Shixing.

First, the county magistrate is too young, and second, he has just been a county magistrate for two years.

No matter how you look at this person, he is not competitive, so they ignored Luo Shixing as a matter of course, but they did not expect that Luo Shixing would win in the end.

For a while, the three county magistrates felt a little bit of secret hatred, so what's the use of being strong?It's not as good as someone who was born in the Han nationality.

Yes, these county magistrates didn't think too much, and they didn't know how prosperous Beidai County is now, they just thought that Luo Shixing was chosen because he was a Han Chinese court.

It is no secret that the imperial court placed Han officials in Jiaozhou, and it can be seen at a glance.

It's just that although these county magistrates thought about giving Luo Shixing a bad impression, they never thought of using this method.

They are all officials and know that the red line cannot be touched. Simple embarrassment is fine, but if something big happens, their career as officials will come to an end.

It can be said that what happened yesterday was entirely due to the fact that those local hooligans have had a good life recently, and they ran rampant in the countryside without control. Ordinary people would avoid them when they saw them, satisfying their vanity, in short, they were inflated.

After the expansion, they even felt that they could wrestle with the governor, drive the governor away, and then keep Jiaozhou City in this state, and they will be the underground masters of Jiaozhou City.

In the end, I didn't expect the governor to be so tough, and he directly arrested them all. After all the instruments of torture were placed, their minds came to their senses, but it was too late, they were not heroes at all, and naturally they had no backbone. .

So they pushed all the faults on those county magistrates, trying to commute their sentences. Anyway, under the punishment, there are people who are chasing and biting randomly, not to mention that these county magistrates are really not innocent?

After hearing the whole thing, Luo Shixing asked: "So you arrested these county magistrates? At that time, you dared to arrest people only based on some confessions and no definite evidence?"

He was shocked, it was just some bastard's confession, and he got arrested without any real evidence?

Cheng Jingwei also asked from the side: "Why didn't you report it?"

Wang Antong shrank his neck and said, "I wanted to report it, but I didn't bother you two when I came here yesterday and saw that you two were going to sleep."

Luo Shixing and Cheng Jingwei looked at each other, feeling a little embarrassed.

Gouzi may not have other abilities, but his ability to observe words and expressions is very good, so it is probably not easy to disturb them.

Luo Shixing coughed lightly and said, "Then you shouldn't arrest people directly. Next time, you need to have definite evidence. Otherwise, what will you do if you are bitten back by these county magistrates?"

Originally, they were on the right side. As long as they obtained the evidence patiently, they would definitely be able to bring these county magistrates to justice. Now... they still have to think about how to deal with them.

Wang Antong immediately said: "Don't worry, they've all recruited!"

Luo Shixing was stunned for a moment: "I recruited... What did you do?"

"I'll be interrogated once I'm caught." Wang An said with a calm face.

Luo Shixing was stunned for a moment: "So you not only arrested but also interrogated people without definite evidence? What if they say that you have been tortured?"

Wang Antong tilted his head: "But their subordinates also admitted it."

Luo Shixing was stunned. He tried to sort out his thoughts, and found that only the stubborn Wang Antong could do this.

His logic is very simple, if someone confesses to the county magistrate, then he will be arrested and interrogated, and if the interrogation comes out, then the case will be closed.

Cheng Jingwei looked at the little lynx sitting there silently, couldn't help laughing and said: "Hey, but don't worry about them biting back. If they want to bite back, they have to have a place to appeal."

There are only two ways for these county magistrates to redress their grievances. One is to go to the economic envoy and let the economic envoy make the decision, but judging from the character of the economic envoy, it is estimated that he will not care.

The second way is to go to Beijing to appeal for grievances. This... If you can really go to Luoyang, you have to overcome the language problem. The dialect here is too different from the elegant dialect.

Luo Shixing thought about it for the same reason, and couldn't help laughing: "Does this count as punching the master to death?"

It is estimated that the three county magistrates definitely did not expect such a situation. Even if they knew that there was a new governor, they did not send someone to tell these people to stop. Probably because they thought that the new governor would not do it easily.

If it were Luo Shixing, he would definitely have concerns, because in this era, suing officials is considered treasonous, and conclusive evidence is needed.

It sounds like there is no human rights, but who let this be the feudal era?Luo Shixing may not be on the side of those officials, but he must be careful in order to protect the civilians who sue the officials, even if these civilians are not very worthy of protection.

Now it seems that such caution is completely unnecessary. After a little analysis, it is found that as long as he can stabilize Jiaozhou City, Jiaozhou will be his world.

But Luo Shixing was not happy at all, he patted the case very angrily: "Can't these people be honest? Are they going to find us something?"

Wang Antong grinned: "It's not a big deal."

However, he went to three county towns overnight to arrest him. Luo Shixing reckoned that the child might not even have eaten, not to mention he hadn't slept all night.

While asking someone to arrange breakfast for Wang Antong, he said, "Go and rest first after eating."

After finishing speaking, he turned his head and complained to Cheng Jingwei: "Jiaozhou has only six counties in total. Two counties were occupied by rebels before, and the county magistrate was killed. Now there are no vacancies. As a result, these three county magistrates can't keep it. I'm a poor man. Commander."

After all the calculations, only Beidai County has such a county magistrate, and Luo Shixing was worried that his old nest would be occupied, so he worked hard to get it before he left. This is outrageous!

Fortunately, the alliance also has the official position of commander, but it is not set up on weekdays, it is only set up during expeditions, so Cheng Jingwei can understand the meaning of the bare-handed commander.

He was also a little worried for a while, there was no one to work, so what's the use of Luo Shixing, a high-ranking governor?

At this time, Li Youdao and the others also came over, and happened to hear Luo Shixing's complaint and asked, "What's wrong with the county magistrate?"

Luo Shixing had no choice but to tell everyone about the current situation. Li Youdao and others were in a good mood at first, although the place they lived in was not good, but sometimes the more they were like this, the more they could ignite their fighting spirit.

Nothing can buy such a sense of accomplishment from building a dilapidated place into a prosperous city where the people live and work in peace and contentment.

Even if it is difficult, people always have dreams.

However, half of this dream was shattered before it could be implemented. Everyone sat down slowly with the table, digested the information, and asked dully, "So...now...there is no county magistrate?"

Luo Shixing nodded sadly, and then said: "I plan to recruit talents from all counties to take the exam. Those who pass the exam will be temporarily magistrates, but this has to be applied to the imperial court."

The county magistrate also had to be included in the archives of the Ministry of Officials. It wasn't that Luo Shixing appointed whoever he appointed. Wouldn't that cause chaos in the world?

Li Youdao and the others closed their eyes, deeply feeling that this is a mess, and couldn't help but support their foreheads: "But the question is, why are there so many scholars here?"

Luo Shixing looked at the sky: "We have a lot of people in Beidai County."

Pei Xingben was a little helpless: "Even if they have enough knowledge, they may not be able to appease the locals."

Luo Shixing laughed and said, "I'll let them lead the troops."

Everyone looked at each other, thinking of what happened yesterday, so you are planning to let them lead the troops there, and arrest all disobedient ones, right?

But I have to say that such a method is simple and crude but effective, and it must not be done in the Central Plains.

However, the problem is that in Lingnan, it is troublesome to look forward and backward to those barbarians. This method may be the best.

Cui Shenji said from the side: "It just so happens that we have to send people back to Beidai County to ask people to bring things, let's go together."

Luo Shixing was helpless: "Hey, before leaving, I said that I didn't want Beidai County to send too many things to the state city, but in the end...it's still the same. I don't know if the imperial court will allocate funds for us."

Although Luo Shixing sold it badly and sold it smoothly, he actually didn't know what to do.

The problem in Jiaozhou was created by the people of Jiaozhou themselves. How could this happen if they didn't rebel?It's a purely man-made disaster and has nothing to do with natural disasters. What if the court thinks it's not a natural disaster and doesn't need to allocate funds?

And just when Luo Shixing was worried, the economic envoy wrote a letter to Luo Shixing: Clean up your treasury, the imperial court's appropriation has arrived.

Oh, there are not only appropriations from the imperial court, but also donations from people from all walks of life in the Central Plains. The amount is quite large. In order to prevent thieves on the road from being greedy, why don't you send someone to collect it.

Luo Shixing:? ? ?Soliciting donations?He didn't ask for donations.
