Chapter 76
"The county magistrate really won't take you back to the county?" Zhang Yichen asked.
"Well, he asked me to stay and practice again."
He squinted his eyes in the smoke of the tea and looked at Luo Cheng for a while, "To be honest, why are you?"
"Actually, the reason is very simple. Last time we attacked Qingyang Villa, we captured King Bo of Zhishilang. Then the county magistrate asked me and the second brother Qin to escort him back to Zouping, but he ran away halfway."
"I understand." Zhang Yichen nodded.
With Qin Qiong and Luo Cheng being brave and fierce, betting Wang Bo with a tied bunch, it is impossible for him to run away. Then the only possibility is that they let him go. Based on what he knows, the relationship between Qin Qiong and Wang Bo is extremely likely.
"It's good to stay, I just don't have any other generals like you around me."
"Actually, don't be discouraged. Although the county magistrate did not take you to the county, he also gave you so many rewards. This is a rare generous reward. What does this mean? It means that the county magistrate really likes you. As for you, stay with me, and do something with me for a few years, and you will still have a chance in the future."
"Thank you for your appreciation from the county magistrate."
"You come and be the captain." Zhang Yichen drank a little tea and said slowly, "Although you are too young, your performance in the bandit suppression this time is eye-catching and will definitely convince people. Although the captains in our county are experienced, they are all sluts and need young people like you to take the lead."
The captain is just a servant, and even the officials cannot make it.
But being able to serve as a captain in a county is also a strong reputation. Even for the county magistrate, this is an extremely important position. Proper appointment will be of great help to his governance of a county.
"Luo Cheng dares not take this important task!"
He has been a constable for a few days and hasn't even been working for one day in the county government. Now he suddenly wants to be a captain, but he is afraid that none of the old constables and their tutors will be convinced.
This is actually quite good now, very comfortable.
"I have not worked for a day, so I can't do it."
Zhang Yichen was not angry either. He smiled and put down the teacup and stood up, "Then like this, you think about it first. As for me, I might as well give you a short holiday and have a good rest at home. When the holiday is over, you will come and tell me the decision."
After coming out, Luo Cheng told his brothers that it was on vacation.
"What does it mean, abandoned?"
Several middle-aged men came over there, the leader Fan Hu, the headmaster in the county.
He walked up tilted his arms, shook his big belly, pressed the horizontal knife in his hand, and said with a smile, "Brother Luo, you have been in the limelight this time, killing people, it's so powerful. I heard that he even wiped out the Wang family and took away their wealth. Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk."
Beside him is the deputy chief inspector Tiekui.
Tiekui was big and thick, holding a titanium in his hand and asked, "Why did Brother Luo Wu make such a great contribution and not stay in the county town to become an official?"
"Yes, yes, it's said that such a great contribution is that you have to be appointed as a brigade commander, or you have to be appointed as a county lieutenant." Another deputy captain Ren Zhong said.
Several head-in-chiefs laughed and humiliated Luo Cheng.
The short and fat vice-captain Lian Ming said that Luo Cheng had stolen the limelight from the officers around the county magistrate, so everyone didn't like him, so he was abandoned in the end.
"Brother Luo Wu will not go to the county, so our Zhangqiu County Magistrate Xiaomiao will not be able to tolerate you, the big Buddha." Fan Hu said sourly.
He was the captain and stayed in this county government for decades, from gang to deputy constable, to constable, and then to the captain today, which took all his life to the captain. Now Luo Cheng is young and is directly promoted to be a constable, and this time he has lost his luck and made such a great contribution. If he doesn't go to the county town, then in the captain's room, he is afraid he will rob the boss's position.
"I'm afraid Master Hu doesn't know yet. Our county magistrate has already given Luo Wu's long holiday. I don't know when he will come back." A tall and thin constable said on the side.
Luo Cheng laughed a few times.
These guys are like toads sitting in the well, staring at the little bit in front of their belly. Even if they look up, they can only see the sky as big as the wellhead.
He has no interest in talking about these conservative and incompetent old men.
After coming out, I saw a few brothers and told me about the situation.
The fourth brother exploded, "Why? We will fight to the death, and we will have to reward you with such a little money, silk and field in the end?"
“The reward is quite a lot.”
"Although there is a lot of money, silk and land, what about official positions?"
The fourth brother said with his neck, "Old Jia has been promoted to the coach of the brigade. Why do you have to be promoted to the ninth-grade team chief? Then, like me, Isn't you also promoted to the deputy of the ninth-grade team?"
"Everything, don't be yelling, don't be unsatisfied. Get ready to go home."
The fourth brother was indignant and felt that he had lost his official hat.
"Tell me what happened? Did you offend the county magistrate?"
"Put my mouth cleanly, the fourth brother!" Luo Cheng said the words "The fourth brother".
The fourth brother finally spoke a little lower, but he was still a little reluctant.
"What are you shouting at me? If you don't agree, then you can go to the county magistrate directly. If you have the ability, I will only congratulate you if you can ask the county magistrate to give you a troop coach!"
"Didn't I feel unfair for us?"
Luo Cheng didn't bother to pay attention to him and took the horse away.
Xiaoliu and the others followed, and Laosi finally had to mutter and follow.
First, I returned the horses I borrowed from the county before, and then took the horses I rewarded from the county, loaded with meat and silk.
A group of six people walking on the street full of money and silk, really felt extremely silly.
Armor, bow and spear, etc. have been deposited into the armor bank. Although these have been handed over to them, the armor bow and spear are relatively strict weapons. It is safer to deposit it into the armor bank when there is no mission.
They only left behind short-soldiers like the Horizontal Knife, and the exclusive weapon of each person was still left.
"Fifth Brother, I want to buy some food before going back." Du Fuwei led the horse to Luo Chengdao.
"Okay, I want to buy food too. I also have to buy some meat later. When it gets cold, I have to buy another 10 or 20 kilograms of silk cotton to make a jacket."
So everyone changed their direction and rushed to the market.
Along the way, when I saw the money and silk on the road, I opened my eyes wide. But everyone also knew that these were fierce men who suppressed bandits. It is said that six people cut down and killed dozens of bandits in total, and only in return were so many rewards.
Even if I was jealous and envious, no one dared to have any idea about them.
After all, these six people were carrying horizontal swords and carrying long soldiers. Which one was not murderous?
Come to the market.
Fu San shouted directly to the butcher who sold mutton, "Get me two sheep, one is just slaughtered, cut the meat, and the other one is slaughtered without dividing it."
After hearing this, Du Da walked forward and said, "As my third brother told me, I will pay for the money."
"How can you pay for this money?"
"Of course I have to pay. Third brother, you stole the sheep for me before, but I almost lost my life. I will always remember this love. Today, my brother will treat you to sheep. Why, no?"
Fu San laughed, "Okay, of course."
Xiao Liu said on the side, "Fifth Brother, I want to buy cows, buy two."
