With the cleverness and wisdom of the postman, of course he would not believe Xiao Fan's nonsense.

However, Xiao Fan finally successfully entered the official post.

There is a language in this world that is very simple and effective, that is - silver.

When Xiao Fan held back his heartache, his face twitched and took out five cents of silver and stuffed it into the hands of the postman, the postman's old face suddenly became as gentle and bright as the spring breeze.

In contrast, Xiao Fan's expression became much bitter.

Unexpectedly, even a mere postman was taken to the door. It is said that Zhu Yuanzhang hated corrupt officials the most, and those who were greedy for 60 taels of silver had to be peeled off and made it public. Such a powerful blow could not stop the greed of the court. It seems that Zhu Yuanzhang's anti-corruption and integrity work had achieved little effect.

——I wonder if this five-month silver can be reimbursed for Chen Siliu? This should be considered as the entertainment fee, right? Many invoices in their previous life were issued as "office supplies", so that's the case.

It is even less difficult to have money to make ghosts push the mills, and let ghosts guide the way.

After the postman collected the money, his service attitude became much more enthusiastic. He enthusiastically told Xiao Fan that the county magistrate Cao lived in the left wing room of the official post. Because he was anxious to take office, his family was still on the way and did not have time to buy a house. He could only live in the official post for the time being. Moreover, he had very little luggage and only brought a servant from his hometown who served him all year round.

When Xiao Fan heard the postman talk a lot, he had some impression of the county magistrate who had not met yet.

Soon Xiao Fan came to the second entrance to the yard of Guanyi, and the wing of the county magistrate Cao was on the left side of the yard.

It is noon now, and County Magistrate Cao is having meals in the yard outside the wing room.

Xiao Fan stood in a distance and carefully looked at the new county magistrate.

I saw him wearing casual clothes, burly figure, with a curly beard, holding a small jar of wine in his strong and powerful hand, tilting his head up to drink a few sips of wine from time to time, then rubbing the corners of his mouth with his sleeves, then holding up his chopsticks and a bite of food. His cold and hard face showed a comfortable expression.

His eyes were as bright as stars. He narrowed slightly when drinking, and then suddenly opened it. From a distance, he looked like a tiger roaring proudly in the mountains and forests entrenched by the table, majestic but also introverted.

Next to him was an old man with a slightly hunchbacked man stood silently without moving his hands, his expression as respectful as an old but extremely loyal dog.

Although he stood far away, Xiao Fan could still feel a faint murderous aura emitted from the body of the county magistrate Cao. The rust-like corrosive smell made Xiao Fan feel a little uncomfortable. I heard that this county magistrate Cao was a general under the command of the King of Yan. He followed the King of Yan to conquer the remnants of the Yuan Dynasty and made many contributions. The county magistrate Cao must have saved countless lives. If he killed many people, he would naturally have a murderous aura on his body.

After calming down, Xiao Fan took a deep breath, straightened his waist, walked to the table of Cao County Magistrate Cao, and then looked at Cao County Magistrate without saying a word.

As soon as Xiao Fan approached, the old servant standing beside Cao County Chief suddenly opened his eyes, and a sharp light shot out of his eyes. Xiao Fan suddenly felt his scalp numb, and it felt like he was being targeted by a hungry wolf.

This master and servant are not simple!

Xiao Fan suppressed the fear in his heart, tried to control his expression, and pretended to be very calm.

Until Xiao Fan walked to the table, County Magistrate Cao was still drinking, as if he hadn't seen him at all. The courtyard was quiet, and only the sound of County Magistrate Cao was heard.

Xiao Fan had to touch his nose and smile bitterly, then stood quietly by the table, lowering his hands and silenced. After the old servant looked at him a few times, he closed his eyes and never looked at him again.

I don’t know how long it took to stand, but County Magistrate Cao looked up at him. He raised his eyebrows and said like a bell: “Who are you?”

Xiao Fan bowed and said, "Xiao Fan, the grass man, has met the second master."

The so-called "Second Master" is the name of the county magistrate. In a county, the magistrate is the eldest, and the people call him "The Great Master". The county magistrate is the eighth rank, and he is the second person in the county, so he is called "Second Master".

County Magistrate Cao frowned and said in a deep voice: "Do you have fame?"

Xiao Fan was stunned and shook his head.

County Magistrate Cao snorted coldly: "Since he has no fame, he is Bai Ding. Why don't he kneel down when he sees this official?"

If there was no fame or reputation in the Ming Dynasty as a scholar, it would be Bai Ding's identity. He would kneel down when he saw the official, even if this official was only an eighth-rank county magistrate.

However, Xiao Fan did not have this habit. With modern education, he had nothing worthy of kneeling besides heaven, earth, king, parents and teachers.

Xiao Fan sighed and said, "Caomin really doesn't want to kneel down. If the adults think that Caomin is in trouble, they will not order Caomin to be imprisoned. Caomin heard that it is much better to be in charge of food in the prison than to starve to death outside."

The big eyes of the county magistrate Cao's county magistrate suddenly shot out of his brilliance, and the faint murderous aura suddenly became richer. His sharp eyes were like a sharp steel knife, shaking Xiao Fan's heart trembled.

Xiao Fan was suddenly a little unstable. This was the ancient times. People's lives were as cheap as grass. Those who were officials said they would kill them. Do you think there would be a reporter and media to help you seek justice? Stop dreaming, he killed himself like a dog.

Okay, just kneel down. Who says that you are a person without principles and you must know how to adapt in everything?

Just when Xiao Fan couldn't bear it and was about to kneel down, County Magistrate Cao, who had been looking at him for a long time, suddenly burst into laughter: "Damn it! I didn't expect that this little Jiangpu County would have such a courageous person. I am a civil servant, and it was not until today that I felt like a little taste..."

Xiao Fan breathed a sigh of relief and straightened his waist with the flow. - Fortunately! This county magistrate is a bold and unrestrained faction. If he meets a graceful faction today, he will definitely be able to kneel down.

After laughing, County Magistrate Cao suddenly lowered his face and said, "You said you were going to starve to death outside. What does this mean?"

Xiao Fan smiled bitterly and said, "If the Chen family collapsed, the grass people had nowhere to go. Wouldn't they starve to death outside?"

A cold light burst out from the eyes of the county chief Cao, and he said coldly: "Are you from the Chen family?"

Xiao Fan touched his nose: "It's half of the Chen family..."

County Magistrate Cao sneered: "You are here to plead for the Chen family? Humph! How much money did Chen Siliu bring to me this time? Five thousand taels? Or ten thousand taels?"

Xiao Fan looked at the expression of County Magistrate Cao and his heart sank. It seemed that County Magistrate Cao was determined to deal with the Chen family this time, and no amount of money was given.

Xiao Fan shook his head and sighed: "I disappointed my lord. I only have ten taels of silver on me..."

County Magistrate Cao opened his eyes wide: "Ten taels?"

Xiao Fan subconsciously covered his wallet at his waist and said, "And these ten taels of silver are the savings of Caomin. Caomin also expects it to lay eggs, eggs to lay chickens, and eggs to be endless. It depends on it to get rich. To be honest, Caomin did not intend to give it to you..."

County Magistrate Cao's face became heavier and heavier: "Are you playing tricks on me?"

"How dare the grass-roots people..."

County Magistrate Cao narrowed his eyes: "Chen Siliu sent you to bring out ten taels of silver and plead with me?"

Xiao Fan shook his head in panic. When it comes to this point, there is no hope of pleading. If he really speaks this, he may be the county magistrate Cao, who is a soldier, will slash him with one blow.

But... I always have to find a topic, otherwise why would I run into this official post for no reason? If the matter is not resolved, wouldn’t I give the five cents of silver to the postman at the door be used? Chen Siliuyi would definitely not reimburse him...

Xiao Fan looked around, then stared at the wine jar on the stone table, immediately blessed his heart, and then smiled: "Caomin did not necessarily come to plead with him when he saw him, maybe... he just wanted to have a drink with him..."

Xiao Fan vaguely felt that perhaps this topic could satisfy the county magistrate Cao. How could it be bold without alcohol? Dongfang Bubai in the movie had drunk wine with Linghu Chong very generously. This county magistrate Cao must be better than Dongfang Bubai.

The county magistrate Cao was stunned, and even the old servant beside him suddenly opened his eyes. The two of them stared at Xiao Fan in a daze, speechless for a long time.

Seeing that County Magistrate Cao did not respond, Xiao Fan couldn't help but say, "Can this wine be too expensive and the lord can't bear to bear it?"

The eyes of the county magistrate Cao flashed, and he finally laughed loudly and said, "Okay, okay, okay!"

He even said three good words, and then County Magistrate Cao stared at Xiao Fan and said, "You guy is so angry with me. If you don't invite you to drink this wine today, I'm afraid I won't be ashamed to be an official in Jiangpu County in the future. Haha, it's not bad, I'm brave!"

After saying that, County Magistrate Cao turned his head and said to the old servant: "He wants to drink, so let's invite him to drink!"

The old servant bowed his head respectfully and responded, turned around and entered the wing room, then took out two large sea bowls.

"Bang!"

A sea bowl was slapped on the stone table.

Xiao Fan's face changed, and a thin layer of cold sweat appeared on his forehead.

Swallowed with difficulty, Xiao Fan looked at County Magistrate Cao with a sense of begging for mercy. He did not expect that the bold and unrestrained faction would be so bold...

"... Can I change to a smaller wine glass?" Xiao Fan smiled carefully at County Magistrate Cao, and guiltily clasped it into a small circle with his index finger and thumb, and gestured pitifully at County Magistrate Cao: "Caomin thinks the cup of two cents is pretty good..."

County Magistrate Cao snorted, then looked at him with contempt and said roughly: "A cup of two cents? It is used by eunuchs who have no eggs. Is it a man? Use this!"

Xiao Fan looked straight at the two big sea bowls on the stone table that were enough to hold two pounds of wine, and he felt the urge to escape.

Although the Chen family needs to protect it, the premise is... their lives must be protected even more!

If County Magistrate Cao didn't laugh at him, Xiao Fan would really want to slap himself hard.

There are many ways to communicate between people, such as meeting relatives, raising relationships, or even flattering. As long as you can achieve your goal, you will not be ashamed of any method.

Xiao Fan found that he had done something stupid, and he chose the stupidest method - to fight with a general from a hundred wars from the army.

The crowd's eyes were sharp. Could it be that he was really a lunatic?

Xiao Fan had doubts about himself for the first time...
