Chapter 106 Tong County Chief

Chapter 106 County Mayor Tong

In a blink of an eye, December has entered.

There are more and more workers coming to Louting to build a warehouse, with nearly 700 people. Among them, about 300 people are local residents of Louting.

The rest came from the surrounding areas, making the pavilion lively all of a sudden.

Liu Kan refused everyone, as long as you come, you can work here... As for corn, just like locals, each person has a hu of rice.

It has to be said that it is precisely the addition of these outsiders that has accelerated the speed of building warehouses and warehouses.

But Cao Shen felt uneasy. There was nothing else. Among these helpers who came from outside the pavilion, there were many evil-looking people. There were even several people who knew at a glance that they were not a good way to come. Since they came from other places, they lived in those newly built houses.

"Old Tang, if you are so attractive, I see something big will happen."

In private, Cao Shen couldn't help but complain to Tang Li: "These people's origins are unknown, and we cannot verify them. If they have ulterior motives..."

Before Tang Li could finish his words, he interrupted his complaint: "Old Cao, A Kan is not stupid!"

Liu Kan is not stupid, and Cao Shen is not stupid either!

Sometimes just one sentence is enough to make it clear.

Yes, that boy Akan is not stupid... He goes to the construction site every day to patrol, so how can he not see the problems here?

He must understand it if he could see it himself.

The reason why I haven't said anything yet is that I have already made plans.

However, what medicine is Liu Kan selling in this gourd? Perhaps except for Tang Li, the entire official office will not know.

And Kuai Che, who is still missing, is singing the play?

Cao Shen was puzzled, but he still held back his curiosity and did not ask questions.

After all, he is just a working person. Since Liu Kan has arrangements, ask what should be asked by subordinates. If you shouldn't ask, it's better not to ask what shouldn't be asked.

However, he quietly put a list of people he thought were in trouble.

One of them is the most interesting. He is from Guangling, named Shao Ping. However, it is easy to be "Zhao Ping" when pronounced with Chu Sheng.

This person is definitely not a rough person who does physical work.

The white face, thin and slender body, and hands are very well maintained. But he just pretends to be a rough man and mixes with the helper. In his spare time, he wanders around the official office, and sometimes he will gather with a few people, muttering.

Do you really think that the people here are fools?

Cao Shen subconsciously increased the workload for Shao Ping.

But strangely, such a weak guy can always complete his work.

This also made Cao Shen pay more and more attention to him. The origin of this guy is definitely not simple, and he may even be a leader.

After secretly reporting this situation to Liu Kan, Liu Kan just said 'I know' and ignored the matter.

Are you really confident?

Or didn't take it to heart at all?

Cao Shen couldn't help feeling a little panic, but he couldn't say it out loud, so he had to pay more attention to Shao Ping in secret.

It took more than ten days in a flash.

At this time, there had been several heavy snow in the north. It is said that Wang Ben, the general who stayed in Jiaodong County, had to return to Xianyang due to illness.

In fact, since the beginning of summer, Wang Ben's body has not been very good.

He forced himself to accompany the First Emperor to complete the tour, but he couldn't get sick after the winter. Wang Ben's departure temporarily caused the land of Qilu to be in a state of no leader. Fortunately, officials from all over the country were very responsible and did things tremblingly, but no major problems occurred.

By mid-December, the construction of the building and warehouse came to an end.

On this day, Liu Kan was discussing matters with someone in the official office, and suddenly someone came to report that the county magistrate of Tong County sent someone to escort the supplies and grain to the building warehouse. The officials who escorted the supplies also asked Liu Kan to send someone to count and accept it immediately. Hearing the misunderstanding, it seemed very urgent.

Zhou Chang said in surprise: "I haven't received an order from the county magistrate to open the building warehouse, why did I send the baggage in advance?"

Zhou Chang couldn't help but feel strange, and Cao Shen and Cheng Miao were also a little puzzled. Logically speaking, County Magistrate Tong should at least say hello in advance when sending supplies and food. Why did he say hello when he was delivered? Liu Kan didn't even get any news. Isn't it too hastily?

Liu Kan raised her head and looked at Tang Li. A strange smile appeared on both of them at the same time.

Pushing the book case, Liu Kan stood up and said, "Old Cao, Lao Zhou, you two accompany me to take a look... Maybe it's another trouble."

Zhou Chang and Cao Shen are both proficient in this way.

So Liu Kan only called him and did not let Tang Li follow him.

The three of them left the official office and rode straight to the granary. From a distance, they saw a row of ox carts, about seventy or eighty, parked under Gaogang. The leader was an official. After seeing Liu Kan, he curled his lips slightly, his eyes drooped, and he didn't say anything.

"Secretary Liu Kan, dare you ask..."

"I am the order of the county magistrate of Tong County and the county magistrate to escort the baggage, grain and grass into the warehouse. Are you Liu Kan? Take a quick inventory."

This county magistrate is so arrogant and looks arrogant.

Next to him was Zuo Shi walking up with a list of books, presenting his hands in front of Liu Kan.

Unfolding the wooden slip, Liu Kan couldn't help but frowned slightly, "Sir, the lower magistrate has not received the order to open the building warehouse. The county magistrate sent the baggage here, and there were so many weapons and armor. I'm afraid it wouldn't be good. Besides, the county magistrate has not notified him."

"Nonsense, the county magistrate should notify you if he is doing business? Don't forget that your Lou Cang is still under my Tong County. Although the imperial court has not ordered the use of it, the county magistrate needs to use it now. Do you still have to win your consent? Accept it quickly and delay it again."

Liu Kan's face changed suddenly!

A small county magistrate, in terms of rank comparison, is just the same level as Liu Kan.

Taking a deep breath, Liu Kan glanced at the list again, and her brows immediately twisted into the shape of a 'Chuan'.

"Five thousand stones of thick millet, two thousand pairs of armor, and seventy thousand black duck arrows..."

Na Zuoshi said in a low voice: "These are all supplies for transporting Baiyue to the next year. Now the county town is a little crowded, so it is stored here in advance. Liu Cangling, let's count and store it... This matter was personally ordered by the county magistrate. If you don't accept it, it's hard for us to deal with it."

"That's how..."

Liu Kan thought about it and nodded in embarrassment, saying, "Since that's the case, I'll accept it first. But I will report it to the county magistrate immediately. If the county magistrate does not agree to use the granaries, I will have to trouble you to pull the things back then. I can't afford to take on such a thing."

"That's nature, that's nature!"

After Zuoshi finished speaking, he escorted the soldiers who were carrying the baggage into the granaries. Liu Kan sent Zhou Chang and Cao Shen to assist and counted them aside.

He ignored the noble county magistrate and turned around and left with his men.

"By the way, there is one more thing..."

The county magistrate suddenly called Liu Kan, "Before the New Year, there will be a batch of supplies to arrive in Tong County. The county magistrate has asked the county magistrate to send out the tiger talisman and transfer Zhou Lan's troops to Tong County to assist. Liu Kan, these days, you will have to worry about sending people here to work harder. Maybe after the New Year, Zhou Lan's troops will come back... But there will be nothing, it will only be a few days, you can do it yourself."

"What?"

Liu Kan was furious and said, "If Zhou Lan is transferred, no one will guard me."

"It's not my business, I'm just ordered. By the way, aren't you familiar with the county magistrate? Just report it to the county magistrate."

The county magistrate said sarcastically. After saying that, he glanced at Liu Kan, turned his horse's head and left slowly.

Only Liu Kan was left gritting her teeth while she was still there, pausing for a while, turning her back on her horse, and leaving.

Draw the person away again?

What the hell is Ren Xiao doing?

After returning to the official office, Liu Kan talked aside the situation with Tang Li.

But Tang Li laughed after hearing this, "I didn't have any novelty, so I'll draw Zhou Lan? Ha, County Mayor Tong is a wonderful person."

Liu Kan also smiled!

"I didn't expect that the first person to take the bait was this County Mayor Tong."

"A County Magistrate Tong is already old enough... A Kan, it seems that those people are going to make moves, and it's within these few days."

Liu Kan sneered, "Let them come, I'll wait for them here."

"Maybe, they're here."

After saying that, Tang Li glanced at the baggage list in his hand again, "What a big gift, but I don't know, can those people swallow it?"

"I can't swallow it, I just suffocate them to death!"

Liu Kan smiled coldly and subconsciously clenched his fists.

What is due to come will come anyway!
