As soon as you enter the city gate, you will see a spacious avenue paved with gray stone, which is flat and long, stretching towards the center of the county.
The name of the avenue where Lin Mu is located is [Nancheng Avenue].
On the avenue, there are crowds of people, traffic, bustle, and bustle.
The shops next to the avenue are also crowded, full of customers, and business is booming.
Even though Dongye County is an inconspicuous county, it is not easy to buy in the bustling shops on the official road. If a player wants to buy it, there must be prestige requirements. If it is purchased by aborigines, it is much more relaxed.
Of course, there are also players who want to change their approach to get the store, which is to let the aborigines buy it and then transfer it to the players. Unfortunately, this final process still requires reputation. There may even be additional taxes, which is not worth the loss.
There are policies from above and countermeasures from below. Smart players will still think of other ways to get the store, so they can directly let the trustworthy aborigines buy it. The ownership will belong to the aborigines, so that the income from the store will be given directly to the players.
Where there is a shop, there is a way to make money, and many smart players know this.
Lin Mu, who was riding a horse, took a cursory look at the nearby shops along the way to see if any players had built them, or if there were any spare ones, he could let the citizens of his territory buy and rent one.
The members of the Dabao Chamber of Commerce established by Xu Bao have not yet left the valley, and are still assisting Chang Yin and others in sorting out various industries in the territory. When the personnel of the Dabao Chamber of Commerce come out, another hidden force appears.
Lin Mu already had an idea in mind. When they came out, some people would rush to Yangzhai City, Yingchuan County, Yuzhou, and prepare to sell the ten or so village building orders in stock in the territory. In this way, the territory of Huaxia District should be able to reach 100. Peak, when the time comes, the system will be updated. The earlier the system is updated, the better it will be for the Huaxia District, which must win the first place!
If it weren't for the fear of being noticed, Lin Muyou would have posted a post selling village building orders on the built-in war in the mythical world, pretending to be 13.
After taking a quick look at the flowers, Lin Mu turned around and headed north of the city. The temporary headquarters of the Night Shadow Department is in the north of the city.
People are not allowed to drive horses wildly on the county official road, but as long as it does not affect pedestrians doing business, it is still okay to run, and the patrolling officers and soldiers will not specifically intercept them.
After driving his horse to a yard one foot high, Lin Mu dismounted and knocked on the door.
"Who is outside?" a question came from inside.
"People in the night follow in the shadows!" Lin Mu whispered, and after a moment of silence, he opened the door.
People in the night, following in the shadows, talking in secret words.
The person who opened the door saw that it was the lord, that is, [Dragon].
He immediately said respectfully: "It turns out to be your lord, please forgive us for not being able to welcome you in an open and fair manner!"
Lin Mu waved his hand, shook his head and said: "There is no need to be like this, it's just a little restraint. Everyone attaches great importance to safety and confidentiality. Being unobtrusive will make everyone safer. I won't mind, it's just a hard work for those of you who will hide in the dark in the future. Brother. What’s your codename?”
Outside, Lin Mu still calls them by their code names, which gives them extra protection.
"Seventeen, it is our duty to be loyal to the lord; to protect the peace and contentment of the hundreds of thousands of people and relatives in the territory, we will go through fire and water without hesitation." Seventeen said sincerely and generously.
"Okay! Your loyal hearts are reflected in the sun and the moon, and all people are grateful!" Lin Mu is proud of these brothers!
"Hey, the lord is finally here, come on, take a seat, please!" While Lin Mu and Shi Qi were chatting, Xu Ying appeared like a ghost and invited Lin Mu into the house.
"Oh, you are the commander of the capital. I see that you have improved a lot in your magical skills recently! Haha~" Lin Mu said in surprise.
"Lord, please don't bury me. The changes in your lord are so huge. I can feel a hint of danger from your lord. When I came out of the valley, I didn't feel this way. My lord has made great progress! We haven’t seen each other for a few days, so let’s look at him with admiration!” Xu Ying was also very surprised at Lin Mu’s change.
Lin Mu also humbly accepted Xu Ying's praise and smiled.
After entering the house, Xu Ying reported the situation to Lin Mu.
…
After running wildly for several hours, Xu Bao arrived near Dong'an Mountain while the sun was still high in the sky. Sure enough, as Xu Ying and others predicted, Xu Bao, who was eager, entered the mountain from the road and found evidence of advance preparations.
Just when he was surprised, the attack suddenly came. Dozens or hundreds of thieves dressed as Dong'an bandits attacked Xu Bao with swords and guns, shouting: "The government people are chasing us. They are trying to rob us." The wealth and women brought back from Shen Village, brothers, kill him before he goes back to report the news!"
Xu Bao was now wearing the equipment and clothing of a government lieutenant, and he was indeed a member of the government.
Later, when Xu Bao wanted to ask the reason, he was seriously injured. After a while, the horse whined and fell into a pool of blood.
The furious Xu Bao rushed towards the opening, broke out with all his strength, and escaped into the forest, escaping with his life.
In fact, these 'Dongan thieves' are all disguised as the backbone of the Night Shadow Department. All of them have extraordinary martial arts, no less powerful than the 6th level soldiers. They are a special type of military force, they have reality but no name.
Xu Bao, who was seriously injured, was deliberately driven by them to escape to Dongye County.
It may take Xu Bao three to four days to return to Dongye County. At this time, Lin Mu has already left the valley, preparing to take over the task of suppressing bandits. His troops are also well placed, and he is just waiting for Xu Bao to return from serious injuries and frequent deaths to report to Xu An. , came back with 'intelligence' and angered Xu An.
The furious Xu An, combined with the evidence deliberately left by Liu Feng and others in Shenzhuang, coupled with the pressure from other officials and wealthy families, will definitely no longer help the Dong'an Bandits, and will even send troops to attack them. At that time, it is It's time for Lin Mu and others to harvest the fruits.
Lin Mu expressed high praise for the Yeying Department's plan this time, and asked Xu Ying to reward them generously afterwards to boost everyone's morale and alleviate the pain of leaving home.
After talking in detail for several hours, a spy came back to report that Xu Bao and others had been driven back and were about to reach the west city gate.
After receiving such information, Lin Mu immediately prepared to go to the county magistrate's mansion and prepare to bribe the county magistrate and obtain an official position, so that he would be qualified to obtain meritorious service after successfully suppressing the bandits.
Players do not hold official positions, and they only gain reputation or other material rewards for completing many tasks. The merits of the tasks are basically obtained by officials. This is an unspoken rule and a hidden setting of the system.
Without further ado, after some discussion, Lin Mu immediately rushed to the county magistrate's residence.
Familiar with the road, under the arrangement of Yeying staff, Lin Mu met the magistrate of Dongye County for the first time in his life.
In Dongye County, only the county magistrate can appoint some non-grade officials. Even the county captain does not have this right. He only has the right to recommend.
Of course, if you are an official in the same dynasty and county, everyone has a tacit understanding. If the talents you recommend have no major problems and do not involve their respective interests, they will basically be approved.
Lin Mu met with the county magistrate this time and planned to bribe him in exchange for a job as a "Township Inspection Officer", which was an extremely low-level official job.
The official position is, but at least when you complete a series of bandit suppression tasks, you can get meritorious service, so that you can be promoted. When the time comes, if you pay more tribute, you will basically be promoted.
The magistrate of Dongye County, named Huang Yun, is a direct member of the Huang family, a local gentry in the county. He is an external official in Dongye County.
Within the Han dynasty system, external officials generally did not look too bad, and they turned a blind eye to some dirty behaviors. Just like the Tao family case, because of the local wealthy families such as Xu An, Huang Yun remained silent and secretly collected huge profits.
Ye Ying has already found out about Huang Yun's character and style. He is greedy for money, but he is quite sensible. He is still very diligent in governing Dongye County. Since many strange people appeared, his various measures are not satisfactory.
…
Huang Yun, Huang County Magistrate, looks like a middle-aged scribe, wearing a green official robe and a majestic crown. He has a smile on his face, as if he does not have any dignity at all, but looks like a kind middle-aged uncle.
Lin Mu didn't pay much attention to this county magistrate. Maybe it wouldn't be long before this position would be his. After Lin Mu was changed by the power of rules, his mind became stronger, his style became more generous, and he no longer felt timid.
"My lord, the county magistrate, Lin Mu, a grassroots man, has met the county king! When I was young, I received the help of a noble man and read poems and books. After more than ten years of hard work, I was able to become a talent. Now, with the help of a noble man, I can see the noble face of the county magistrate. What a great fortune for me! I am very grateful and want to serve the county magistrate and work hard until my death. At the same time, the common people have little wealth, so I am willing to show my filial piety to the county and do my best. I hope you will look down upon me." Lin Mu said. After the prepared manuscript was narrated with great emotion, Magistrate Huang's smile became even stronger.
Lin Mu's identity was not that of a stranger, but an identity fabricated by people from the Night Shadow Department. This identity was obtained at a high price from certain relationships and could withstand inspection.
In the early days, Lin Mu was not prepared to expose the identity of the stranger. It was not because he was afraid, but the time in the early stage was very tight. After Lin Mu matured a lot, he revised the previous plan and prepared to be more ambitious and span a wider range. , in such a situation, the identity of the alien must be an obstacle.
What's more, Lin Mu was not prepared to make friends with the officials of Dongye County. He was too arrogant. If he had not been affected by the power of rules, he might have carefully managed the relationship in Dongye County and slowly climbed up step by step...
…
After several lives and deaths, Xu Bao survived by 'lucky'. Returning to Dongye County, he was rescued by the officers and soldiers guarding the city, but Xu Bao, who was seriously injured, passed out after leaving his experience and the 'evidence' in the hands of the officers and soldiers.
For several miles after being chased, the "Dongan Thieves" continued to break the news, stimulating Xu Bao. When his life was on the line, he became confused and concluded that Dong'an Mountain had robbed the Shen family, and even joined forces with thieves from several other mountains. .
After a lot of fighting, Xu An learned about Xu Bao's situation and the information he brought back at the risk of his life. He was furious and smashed everything on the table, even the table was broken, which shows that he was so angry that he was so angry. .
