"Uncle Lin, this is a little thought from me. You can use the money to buy some land or do some small business. Don't be a tenant of the Cao family anymore."
Jiang Cheng explained.
"It's just too much."
Lin Xuesheng was in a dilemma and frowned.
"Take it. I heard from Xue'er that your family has a large population, and Xue'er has younger brothers and sisters to support. In the future, I may take Xue'er as my concubine, and this little money can be used as a betrothal gift."
Jiang Cheng said again.
Hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed across Lin Yixue's eyes.
Her cheeks were red and she was embarrassed. It wasn't until Lin Xuesheng reminded her that she realized what she was doing. She hurriedly knelt on the ground and said, "Thank you, sir!"
With her status, it is naturally impossible for her to become Jiang Cheng's first wife.
Even becoming a concubine is difficult.
Now that Jiang Cheng has personally guaranteed it, he is naturally overjoyed.
"Then I will accept the money, sir."
Lin Xuesheng did not refuse anymore, accepted the banknote, and told Lin Yixue: "Xue'er, you must serve the great master with all your heart in the future. This is your great blessing."
"Dad, I understand."
Lin Yixue smiled coyly, her clear eyes sparkling with smiles.
Lin Xuesheng took the money and left.
Jiang Cheng was afraid that it would be unsafe along the way, so he sent a guard to escort him home.
After all, he had two hundred taels of silver on him.
In the eyes of ordinary people, this is a huge sum of money.
You can buy a large house in the county with three entrances and three exits.
And the mountains in Ancheng County are indeed not peaceful.
A group of bandits are entrenched.
The number of people was not large, less than a hundred, but they were elusive.
There is a battalion of guard soldiers in Longshan Hill outside Ancheng County.
These soldiers came to suppress the bandits two years ago. They failed to suppress the bandits many times, so they refused to leave. Every month, the county government sent them some daily necessities.
Jiang Cheng was so unlucky that he had to spend one thousand taels of silver every month to buy daily necessities for these guardsmen.
Jiangcheng scraped together things here and there, scraping together a thousand taels of silver every month.
Seeing that Jiang Cheng was so friendly to his father, Lin Yixue also became a little affectionate towards Jiang Cheng.
Jiang Cheng held her little hand and hugged her slender and soft waist, and she no longer resisted.
After all, everyone must respect each other.
Although there is a huge difference in status between her and Jiang Cheng, she also longs for Jiang Cheng's respect.
Now that Jiang Cheng respected her father and gave her father a large amount of money, she was naturally filled with joy.
Jiang Cheng tapped her nose with his finger and said, "Master goes to work in the Yamen now."
Lin Yixue nodded, lowered her head in shame, her face was like a peach blossom.
It's so bright and beautiful.
Five days later.
In the past few days, Jiangcheng has been reviewing cases with high intensity.
His merit points have reached an astonishing 20,000 merit points.
However, fewer and fewer people are complaining.
The backlog of cases has almost been dealt with.
However, there is still an endless stream of people watching the excitement at the Yamen Gate every day, a sea of people.
Now, if you go out to the streets and grab anyone at random and ask them, who doesn’t know that the county magistrate is a master in solving cases?
Even people from neighboring counties came to complain, hoping that Jiangcheng would make the decision.
However, this involves jurisdictional issues.
Unless the case occurs in Ancheng County or involves the people of Ancheng County, Jiangcheng can have jurisdiction. Otherwise, Jiangcheng cannot have jurisdiction.
On this day, Jiang Cheng came back from the county government.
By the way, tomorrow is a holiday.
Looking at Lin Yixue's soft waist and beautiful face, Jiang Cheng felt itchy.
In the past few days, Jiang Cheng worked late at the county government office and had no time to communicate more with Lin Yixue.
After all, she is his future concubine, so some communication should take place.
And the two of them also became familiar with each other.
From the very beginning of holding hands, it has now reached the stage of kissing.
The day before yesterday, Jiang Cheng secretly kissed Lin Yixue on the cheek in the study.
Lin Yixue was frightened and ran away like a frightened little rabbit.
By the next day, Jiang Cheng was still the same as before. Lin Yixue only had red cheeks but did not leave.
And this morning, the two had a long kiss beside the bed.
It almost delayed the time to go to the Yamen in Jiangcheng.
The only thing missing between the two of them was the layer of window paper that hadn't been pierced.
Jiang Cheng was preparing to eat when he saw Chen Yuan coming back from outside with a sad face.
"Chen Yuan, what's wrong with you?"
Jiang Cheng put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hands, turned his face, and asked curiously.
"No...nothing..."
Chen Yuan waved his hands quickly and said with an ugly expression.
"Didn't I ask you to redeem Liu Yan today? Where is she?"
Jiang Cheng asked curiously.
Chen Yuan has been obsessed with Liu Yan ever since he met Liu Yan in Cuihong Mansion a year ago.
Soon, the two got on well with each other and flirted with each other.
Chen Yuan spent many years of savings on that woman.
But this is not always the solution. It is better to let Liu Yan become a good person first, and then marry him back home.
"It was Liu Qibao, the son of Liu Quantai, the governor of the guard station, who stopped him."
Seeing Jiang Cheng insisting on asking, Chen Yuan smiled bitterly.
"Liu Qibao?"
Jiang Cheng remembered.
Liu Qibao is a small flag officer in Longgang Guards Station and Liu Quantai's biological son.
Relying on his father's power, he did all kinds of evil in their Ancheng County, often bullying men and dominating women.
Even the people did not dare to complain in front of him.
After all, the five hundred people in the guardhouse were all soldiers.
The so-called scholar encountering soldiers is hard to explain, let alone ordinary people.
Although Chen Yuan is a martial artist with a fifth-level realm, he is helpless when encountering such a military leader.
What's more, Liu Quantai is a sixth-rank governor, and his official rank is higher than that of Jiangcheng.
Although the Sui Dynasty used civil society to control military affairs, and civilian officials had a higher status, there was nothing they could do when they encountered such unreasonable military men.
"Is Liu Qibao still in Cuihua Building?" Jiang Cheng asked.
"Master, I originally wanted to redeem Liu Yan's life. The Madam of Cuihua House and Liu Yan both agreed and asked me to pay three hundred taels to redeem my life. But Liu Qibao suddenly intervened and I almost started a fight with him."
Chen Yuan was angry and angry, clenching his fists tightly.
"Let's fight. What are you afraid of? If you join the army, you will be at least a sixth-grade town governor or deputy Qianhu."
Jiang Cheng shouted.
Back then, Chen Yuan was willing to join the Jiang family in order to thank them for their life-saving grace.
At that time, Chen Yuan was at the peak level of the fourth level, and now he is at the high level of the fifth level, which is at the level of a governor in the military.
(The realm ranges from level one to level ten, and each level is divided into five smaller realms: primary, intermediate, advanced, peak, and perfection.)
"Young Master, that Liu Quantai is unreasonable, let's not provoke him. After all, you are about to be investigated by the officials." Chen Yuan sighed.
"Are you still a man? Where did your previous bloodiness go? I'm not even afraid of Princess Pingyang, why are you afraid of a little Liu Quantai?"
Jiangcheng Road.
Three years ago, in order to protect Jiangcheng, Chen Yuan fought with Princess Pingyang's guards and injured more than a dozen of Princess Pingyang's guards.
The Jiang family handed over one hundred thousand taels of silver, part of which was used to release Chen Yuan on bail.
Hearing this, Chen Yuan's eyes suddenly became sharp, and his face was a bit fierce.
