Chapter 77

The 'Yunshui' Lu family held the position of patrolling the rivers in Ludong County, at least for hundreds of years.

Almost all the rivers and lakes in Ludong County have become the Lu family's private land.

In fact, this kind of situation is very common in all the prefectures and counties of the Dajin Xian Dynasty.

Because Emperor Jinyang was the Great Jin Dynasty established in conjunction with some cultivation families, he gave these cultivation families many rights and conveniences from the very beginning.

Later, the immortal dynasty used the Nine-Rank Zhongzheng system as the foundation and system of the country, which exacerbated this situation.

In the local area, the clans of the various states and counties, not to mention the existence of the emperors, at least they all hold real power in many places all year round.

After 8000 years, it has been accumulated for a long time, and even if the imperial court wants to change it, there is no good way.

More than 800 years ago, the imperial court set up county schools, county schools, and state schools in the local area, and set up the Guozijian in the central government, just to change this deadlock.

But the effect is obvious, almost all local schools exist in name only.

The 'Yunshui' Lu family has been in the position of patrolling the river all the year round. It is conceivable that there must be a lot of tricks and tricks hidden in it.

For more than two months, Liang Zhaohuang has not been to the Inspection Division to take over the position of river inspection with Lu Shiming.On the one hand, it was indeed during this period of time that the Liang family could not do without him; on the other hand, it also gave the Lu family enough time to deal with the relationship and the end of the hand in the River Inspection Division.

What should be collected, what should be made up.

So as not to cause too ugly things after the handover.

Liang Zhaohuang is also considered to be a soldier first, and the Liang family has not yet determined which side to lean towards, and he does not want to be too stiff and ugly with the Lu family.

But now, the county magistrate has personally intervened, and he can no longer drag it on, so he can only go to the inspection department to hand over.

The Inspection Division Yamen is also located in 'Jinguanfang', not far from the county office.

Liang Zhaohuang left the county office and went directly to the Inspection Division.

The people from the inspection department generally patrol the towns, mountains, forests, rivers and lakes in the county. There are not many people who stay in the inspection department, only a few clerks.

These civil servants are generally also held by the children of the clan families who are responsible for the inspection.

Not only is it convenient to monopolize rights, but it can also allow these family children to gain some immortal national fortunes, which are helpful for cultivation.

Although it is only an official who is not an official, the national luck that can be assigned is very rare, but it is always better than nothing.

Liang Zhaohuang came to the Inspection Division to show his identity, and someone immediately led him into the hall of the River Inspection Office in the Yamen of the Inspection Division.

Here, a clerk who had received the news was already waiting, and when he saw him, he immediately stepped forward to greet him, and said, "Little man Zhou Li, I have seen the inspector."

Liang Zhaohuang looked at the other party in confusion and asked, "Aren't you from the Lu family?"

"Returning to the lord, the villain is not." Zhou Li, the literary official, said with an apologetic smile: "The villain is only a loose cultivator in the city, and he does not dare to climb the door of the Lu family."

When Liang Zhaohuang heard the words, he became more and more puzzled, and asked with a frown, "When did you enter the river inspection department?"

"Two months ago."

Zhou Li replied respectfully.

"Who recruited you? Where is the original clerk of the River Inspection Department?"

Liang Zhaohuang continued to ask.

"Reporting to my lord, it is the original Dianli Lu. After recruiting the villain, Dianli Lu resigned."

Zhou Li responded respectfully.

Listening to the other party's words, Liang Zhaohuang's expression changed slightly, and a bad premonition suddenly rose in his heart.

"What about the original Lu inspection?"

"Since the villain came, I haven't seen Master Lu once."

Zhou Li respectfully said.

Liang Zhaohuang took a deep breath and already had some guesses in his heart.

"It seems that my well-intentioned 'first ceremony' was completely abandoned by the other party."

"The other party doesn't mean 'reciprocal exchanges' at all, it just wants to 'rear soldiers' directly!"

"Humph! Since that's the case, I want to see what tricks you can play for me?"

Liang Zhaohuang stepped forward, took the main seat of the hall, and asked in a deep voice:

"Zhou Li, did you have anything to hand over when the previous clerk left?"

"My lord, yes! yes!"

Zhou Li hurried forward, took out a jade box, carefully handed it over, and said:

"This is left by Dianli Lu and asked the villain to hand it over to the adult."

Liang Zhaohuang took the jade box, which had a simple ban on it, which could be broken at will, just to ensure that the jade box had not been opened before it was handed over to him.

Liang Zhaohuang tapped his hand to tear apart the ban with a mana, opened the jade box, and saw that there were three gold and jade atlases and a seal inside.

The seal is the official seal of the river patrol. Lu Shiming handed it over so easily?

Liang Zhaohuang became more and more suspicious, picked up the seal, carefully poured his spiritual knowledge and mana into it to investigate, and found no problems.

He put down the seal and picked up the three volumes of golden and jade atlas to check.

There are three volumes of atlas, one is the hydrographic atlas of Ludong County, which records the hydrological information of the rivers and lakes in the entire Ludong County, but it is the simplest information, including surface information such as location, flow direction, etc. There is no deeper information at all.

Liang Zhaohuang believed that the Lu family had controlled the rivers in Ludong County for hundreds of years, and they must have the most detailed information on the rivers and lakes, but unfortunately they did not stay.

He even believed that if the regulations clearly stipulated that these hydrographic atlas data must be handed over, I am afraid that Lu Shiming would not even keep such a simple information atlas.

Shaking his head slightly, Liang Zhaohuang put down the hydrographic atlas and continued to look at the other two atlas.

The remaining two, one is the account book of the River Inspection Division, and the other is the roster.

The accounts book records the income, expenditure and inventory resources of the River Inspection Division.

The roster records the information of all the registered personnel of the River Inspection Division.

It was just that when Liang Zhaohuang checked the two atlases, his face suddenly became more ugly.

According to the records in the account books, not only did the River Inspection Division not have surplus resources, but it was in shortfall every year, and even owed taxes in the county town!

In the roster, almost all of them are empty. Zhou Li is the only official, and there is only one inspector named Li Huan. Looking at the information, it is also a new recruit two months ago. Obviously, they are all sent to the top tank. build.

Even, according to the account books and roster records, the River Inspection Division still owes the two of them salaries, and no resources have been released for two months!

"Humph!" Liang Zhaohuang couldn't help but snorted coldly, put down the album, his face was extremely gloomy and ugly, "Okay you Lu Shiming, I will give you a face, and you will return to me like this!"

"Do you really think I'm easy to bully?"

Liang Zhaohuang was furious in his heart, but he couldn't think of a good way to take revenge for a while, so he could only hold back his anger the more he thought about it.

In this case, either you can only suffer from a dull loss and take over such a mess; or you can only report it to the county magistrate for a thorough investigation!

Liang Zhaohuang obviously didn't want to suffer the loss, but he wanted to report it. Since Lu Shiming dared to do so, he would have already packed up and finished.

More than two months was enough for him to make all the arrangements.

When Liang Zhaohuang was annoyed, Li Huan, the only remaining patrolman, suddenly came to report: Someone is coming to report the crime!

 Sincere thanks to the book friends' step by step, two steps to reward support!
