"Everyone, please walk slowly." Qiu Ping smiled as he watched these treasure ships enter Abi Hell, and on the ground next to them, there was a pile of spiritual minerals and precious medicines.
Because this world has not issued a unified currency, even these big forces pay taxes directly with materials.
However, there are no strict standards for conversions between various materials, which leaves a lot of room for manipulation.
This is why outsiders call the transfer yamen a fat mess. As long as you move your little hands a little, you can reap huge profits from it.
This Taisui Mountain is indeed a big sect in the world. The tax paid this time alone is worth nearly 10,000 incense, which is worth more than half a month's income in Changning County.
"Being an official is really a beautiful thing."
The little loach was carrying its fins on its back and was about to stroll into the Yamen of the Transportation Department.
But suddenly he saw a stream of light flying towards him. When the light dissipated, he turned into an old Taoist wearing a broad robe.
The Taoist priest looked very old, with only some thin white hair left on his head, which was tied up randomly with hairpins. The robe was starched and turned white, and it was damaged in many places.
There was always a sad look on his old face, as if he had never had anything go his way in his life.
Qiu Ping only glanced at it and lost interest.
This old man looks like a poor man, unable to squeeze out any profit.
"Dear gentlemen, the old Taoist is used to practicing outside. He has nothing to offer, not even a copper." The old Taoist said with an embarrassed look on his face as he was surrounded by a group of little loaches.
These little loaches are not willing to let go, and they pull at Lao Dao's clothes.
"Okay, okay, let him pass." Qiu Ping watched from the side and relieved the old Tao.
People who are still struggling at such a young age naturally have their own difficulties. Qiu Ping does not have to compete with a poor guy.
There is a monitoring circle in this space passage, and basically no one can sneak things in with the help of space objects.
Of course, if the space created by someone can escape supervision, then this person's strength cannot be matched by a local transportation department.
"Thank you, gentlemen." The old Taoist hurriedly cupped his hands and said gratefully to Qiu Ping. .
After walking out of the space passage, the old Taoist turned around and entered Abi Hell.
"etc!"
Qiu Ping suddenly stopped the old Taoist, and the old Taoist paused in his steps.
"Don't go more than a hundred miles out of Yin City. There is also a valley in the southeast, where Yin ghosts often appear, so don't go there." Qiu Ping saw that this man was really pitiful, so he gave some pointers.
"Hey, I understand." The old man thanked him profusely.
Qiu Ping touched his whiskers and said, "Hey, I did another good deed today. I am such a good person. I will write it down in my diary later."
Little Loach feels very good about herself.
…
"What? The imperial envoy is coming to inspect?"
Qiu Ping had just returned to the Yamen when he received a letter from the county god.
Because Qiu Ping and Cao Jiafu had opened a space channel a few days ago, the city god naturally regarded this as a sign of goodwill from the little loach.
After all, the Cao family has declined, and its various qualifications are not even a bit worse than other forces, and it is uncompetitive compared to other families.
The City God kept this favor in mind, and now that there was news that the Imperial Envoy Spirit Officer was coming, he quickly informed Little Loach.
The Yushi Lingguan is affiliated to the Yushitai and is a supervisory department in Shinto.
This group of people has nothing to do all day long, and their salary is not high. They belong to the Qingshui Yamen in the Shinto system. But they happen to have the authority to report on the news and go to various places to find faults.
Many Shinto yamen change their minds when they hear "imperial ambassador". As for those imperial magistrates, they will have to find some problems for you even if they have nothing to do.
"Everyone, assemble!"
Qiu Ping gave an order, and except for some of the loach soldiers who needed to patrol the passage between the two realms, everyone else gathered at the yamen gate.
For a moment, a dense crowd of tall and short figures stood, looking quite imposing.
Qiu Ping's face was serious. Now there is a tough battle to fight, and it is time to test the combat effectiveness of our team.
We must let the leaders of Yushitai see the positive, dedicated and dedicated side of our Qingzhou Ninth Transportation Department.
If someone finds fault, I will be removed from my position...
no! This kind of thing is absolutely not allowed to happen!
"Now everyone listen to my command and prepare... for general cleaning!"
Qiu Ping jumped onto the stage aside, his eyes scanning everyone's body.
"Bie San'er, take a hundred Loach soldiers to clean the south of the city. Li Huanying, take people to clean the north of the city..."
Qiu Ping stood at a high place, commanding calmly, scolding Fang Qiu, and arranged all the cleaning in an orderly manner.
Even Cui Pan was ordered by him to customize banners and prepare gifts...
If you haven't eaten pork, you haven't seen pigs running. Little Loach is also preparing to train a group of Loach soldiers to serve customers with high quality, efficiency and professionalism.
Qiu Ping did everything properly, and Cui Ban's banner was already ready. Under the command of Little Loach, the banner was hung upright on the city gate.
"Abi hell welcomes you!"
It was supposed to be a bright red banner hanging, but there was no color in Abi Hell. The red banner turned into dark gray in an instant, and combined with the words on it, it seemed a bit permeable.
However, Little Loach was very satisfied. Everything was ready and he was just waiting for the leader of Yushitai to come over for inspection!
The little loach personally led the team and led a group of loach soldiers to squat beside the passage between the two realms. Each loach had a wide grin on its face with a bright smile.
Especially the leading black loach, whose big white teeth are somewhat reflective.
One treasure ship after another took off and landed from the passage. They were just paying taxes as usual, but they were a little embarrassed by the sight of these loaches with silly grins on their lips.
As if they had taken the wrong medicine, these loaches were much more enthusiastic than before, and even helped them carry the goods themselves.
When they were about to leave, they all shouted slogans, such as "Welcome to visit next time" and the like, which sounded very retarded...
Qiu Ping was full of fighting spirit on the first day, but the smile on his face was a little stiff on the second day, and on the third day his smile was very forced...
"Damn it, these imperial emissaries and spiritual officials are not here yet!"
The little loach turned away, and the little black face was full of gloom. I have been trying my best to feed myself in the past few days. Could it be that the City God is playing tricks on me?
However, based on Qiu Ping's understanding of the City God, he shouldn't be so bored.
"Everyone, hold on for two more days. We are already prepared to this point, and the leader will be here soon."
Qiu Ping also had to take care of the mood of the people below him and cheer up the depressed little loaches.
At this moment, a thin figure walked into the Yin City from outside Abi Hell. The white hair that was almost falling out and the sorrow on his face. Qiu Ping recognized at a glance that this old man was not the one who entered the prison a few days ago. A poor ghost from hell.
I don't know whether to say he is lucky or not.
Even though he was unlucky, at least he came out alive and seemed to have no damage on his body.
But even though he was lucky, he was still empty-handed, obviously gained nothing, and wasted several days.
Since this man didn't get anything, Qiu Ping didn't need him to pay taxes and waved his hand to let him go.
The little loaches on the side were almost reacting instinctively. When they saw someone going out, they slumped down and weakly shouted slogans:
"Welcome to visit us next time!"
"Old Taoist, please wait a moment."
Qiu Ping suddenly stopped the old Taoist, picked up a package from the neatly placed packages, and handed it to the old Taoist priest.
"Don't come here again in the future. It's not worth losing your life here at your age."
The package was originally a thank-you gift that Qiu Ping asked Cui Pan to prepare, and he planned to take it with the imperial emissaries when they left. It contained some spiritual fruits and elixirs.
Little Loach knows how to give gifts. As long as these spiritual officials accept the gifts, the evaluation will not be much worse no matter how bad it is.
But looking at it like this, I don’t know if they are coming yet.
"Thank you." The old Taoist priest nodded tremblingly, walked into the passage between the two realms, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
…
Qiu Ping led a group of loach soldiers to guard the entrance of the passage for half a month, but he was surprised that no imperial envoys and officials were squatting there.
The loach soldiers below were complaining, and even Qiu Ping himself couldn't stand it anymore.
We have to let everyone evacuate first. We can't tense up here every day. How can we carry out work?
However, in the next period of time, because no royal messenger came, everyone forgot about this matter.
But recently I heard that something big happened in Abi Hell.
In the realm about a thousand miles away from the Ninth Transport Department, the corpse of a ghost nearly a hundred feet tall was found. Such a huge body had at least the strength of an immortal.
Especially in Abi Hell, it has a home field advantage. Once it faces it, ordinary immortals may not be its opponent.
I don’t know whether it was a strong person from the outside world or a conspiracy among ghosts, but such a powerful ghost died inexplicably.
After hearing the news, Qiu Ping was also secretly afraid.
Thousands of miles away is nothing to an existence at this level. If a ghost of immortal level attacks the Yamen of the Transport Department, Qiu Ping may not be able to resist it even with his own strength.
Fortunately, this ghost is dead, otherwise he would have trouble sleeping and eating.
However, this incident also raised a sense of crisis in Qiu Ping's heart.
After all, this Abi Hell is no better than the human world. It is almost an undeveloped wilderness. Its energy level is much higher than that of the human world, and there are many terrifying beings inside.
Little Loach was very worried. He was already thinking about how to strengthen the protection of Yin City and whether to recruit a group of extra-staff legions.
Anyway, the transshipment company has a lot of oil and water, so it is not short of this little money.
I only have one life, and I'm still young, so I can't leave it here.
Just when Qiu Ping was thinking about how to save his life, the [Jade Shuttle] that symbolized his authority suddenly vibrated.
In an instant, an illusory figure projected out from it.
The man was wearing a crimson official uniform, with a face as black as coal, a square nose and a wide mouth, and a rather stern expression on his face.
"The assessment rating of Qingzhou Ninth Transportation Department this season: above average."
"Transporter Qiu Ping is a smart man with a loyal heart, so he should be cultivated. However, the army is depleted and he has no ambition to develop. He seems to be content and contented..." Just when Qiu Ping was about to ask who his buddy was, he discovered it. The color of the opponent’s official uniform.
Good guy, this is at least a fifth-grade god.
Due to the special powers of the Transport Department, they are directly subordinate to Qingzhou Capital Transport Envoy, and their position is the third rank. Officials like the fifth grade should be the heads of several major agencies under the state transportation department.
Hearing these comments, cold sweat broke out on Little Loach's forehead.
I felt a lot of panic in my heart because... the other party was so accurate.
The loach soldiers under his command are all his own clan fish, and their strength is not very high. In addition, he himself was afraid of death, so he almost never actually entered Abi Hell.
No wonder the superiors gave me a rating of “no pioneering spirit”.
This evaluation only had more than 300 words, and the black-faced and red-robed god Zhang Cha Kungfu finished reading it.
The little loach lowered its head almost to the ground, not daring to look at the other person.
"Qiu Ping!" The god's voice was loud and full of oppression.
"The official is here." Little Loach said tremblingly.
"The [Tendering] method you introduced a few days ago has attracted the attention of King Ming Ling and the transfer envoys of the capital. However, Abi Hell is the place for the first conquest. As the head of the Ninth Transfer Department, you should be open-minded and expand the territory of Shinto. .”
"There are both risks and opportunities. I hope you can see clearly and don't miss the chance."
The god did not reprimand Qiu Ping, and his voice remained as usual.
"Yes, I understand." Qiu Ping wiped the non-existent sweat from his forehead, his throat a little dry.
Qiu Ping already knew the implication of the other party. He was able to get a mid-to-upper rating this time because the proposal of the [Tendering] method gave him extra points. Normally, his management of the Ninth Transport Department was far from satisfactory. Far from qualified.
Whether it is the selection of soldiers or the development of territory, they are far from meeting the requirements.
The god's figure left, and the invisible aura that filled the hall also dissipated.
"What can we do?"
Qiu Ping sat down on the ground, feeling troubled in his heart.
I am just a small character in the [Ancestral Aperture] realm, and those ghosts are at the [Holy Fetus] realm at worst, and I can't defeat them at all.
"How about...resigning?"
Anyway, I still have a seventh-grade Well God. Although there will be much less oil and water, it is safe at least.
Just when Qiu Ping looked confused, he heard Biese San'er coming to report that Judge Cui was outside asking for a meeting.
Little Loach waved his hand and asked him to invite Cui Fan in.
Not long after, Cui Pan stepped in, his tall figure covering the light of the pearl hanging high in the hall.
"Your Excellency, the transfer envoy, this season's evaluation has been received."
"I am willing to enter the Abi Hell with your Excellency and all the sergeants. One is to train soldiers, and the other is to expand the territory of our Shinto." Judge Cui cupped his hands towards Qiu Ping and said.
"Really?"
Qiu Ping was still a little depressed, but when he heard this, he jumped up.
He has seen Judge Cui's strength. He can even kill a clone of Lord Yan. With him following him, the big guy's safety is guaranteed.
"Sir, please pack up and prepare. We will set off tomorrow."
Cui Pan nodded, then bowed and left.
A four thousand word chapter!
