From the gate of heaven

Chapter 31 [Invitation from Chief Catcher, I'm sorry I want to study]

After exchanging greetings with the chief bookkeeper Gao Fei, he paid a penny to enter the city.

After that, Gao Fei rode his own horse to lead the way, accompanied by a few soldiers and guards, while Lin Ze followed behind in a donkey cart, heading towards the county government.

Fengping County is not too big, it is a square pattern with a side length of three kilometers as a whole, and the area inside the city wall is about nine square kilometers.

However, because the city is built next to the river, it is a traffic hub. Compared with other ordinary county towns, the economy here is much more developed, and the population is also denser.

Lin Ze drove a donkey cart on the straight street, and there were various shops along the way.

Grain shop, oil shop, restaurant, cloth shop, rouge shop, tooth shop, county school, martial arts hall.
The streets are full of people.

In addition to the residents who already lived in the city, most of them lived around the county seat. Now they came to the city to sell some food and clothing, or ordinary villagers looking for some work.

Looking at the shops and pedestrians along the way, Lin Ze's expression was full of curiosity as a newcomer.

Although Lin Ze had seen these scenes countless times from the perspective of drones when he was preparing for the two-world transaction in the past five years.

Especially in the two places of county schools and martial arts, Lin Ze not only often watches through drones, but even installs monitoring and recording teaching images in these two places for a long time, so as to learn the language and martial arts of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

But remote observation and personal integration are two completely different feelings after all.

At this moment, Lin Ze is experiencing the difference.

If I had to describe it, it was like watching a TV series that had nothing to do with me when I was looking at this city in another world from a distance.

But right now, he has personally integrated into this world and become a part of his own life.

Not long after, Lin Ze followed Gao Fei to the vicinity of the county government office.

The entire county government office is a very large building, covering an area of ​​thousands of square meters.

In addition to being the residence of the county magistrate, all county officials also work here.

Gao Fei parked the horse in the county government office, and Lin Ze also parked the donkey cart beside him.

There are yamen servants here to watch the chariots and horses, so there is no need to worry about losing them.

However, in order to prevent someone from rummaging through his things, Lin Ze still chose to bring his luggage with him.

Afterwards, Lin Ze followed Gao Fei and walked towards a study room behind the hall of the county government office.

Li He, the county magistrate, would stay in this study and read when he was not in need of promotion. If other colleagues had something to do, they could come here to find him.

"Master Li, just see who I brought here."

Gao Fei greeted from a long distance, to remind the magistrate in the study, lest he is doing something embarrassing.

"It's Teng Yue, please come in."

When Lin Ze and Gao Fei entered the study together, they saw a handsome middle-aged man in official uniform with a bookish look on his body.

This person was Li He, the county magistrate. He took a brief look at Gao Fei and then turned his attention to Lin Ze.

Without waiting for Gao Fei's introduction, Li He stood up, greeted with a smile, "This handsome man is very human at first glance, but Lin Ze, young hero Lin Ziyi?"

It is a big event that Fengping County has a first-class master.

Li He knew Lin Ze's background and appearance in detail, so he probably recognized him at the first sight.

And Gao Fei, who recommended Lin Ze next to him, further proved Lin Ze's identity.

Lin Ze bowed his hands modestly, and introduced himself: "I have seen Mr. Li, and I should not be appreciated by him. I am going to Lin Ze, and my name is Ziyi."

Li He bowed his hands and returned the salute, just like Gao Fei's reaction, without being too big.

Smiling, he introduced himself: "Zi Yi doesn't have to be so rigid about etiquette. Li He, the name is Boqian. This is not a formal occasion. Zi Yi doesn't need to be called an adult, he can just call him Biao."

Seeing Li Zhixian's attitude, Lin Ze knew that what Gao Fei said about Li He's appreciation for him was not a polite expression, but a statement of seeking truth from facts.

The officials of the largest local snake in Fengping County have a friendly attitude towards him, which is definitely beneficial for him to gain a foothold here in the future.

"Then the younger generation will be taken care of."

Lin Ze responded politely.

And this kind of sophistication and sophistication has been recognized by Li He.

"Zi Yi came this time because he intends to settle in Fengping County."

After Gao Fei saw that the two had formally known each other, he explained Lin Ze's reason for coming.

"If Ziyi wants to settle down, he must be welcome. What is Ziyi's plan after he settles in Fengping?"

"If there is nothing important, the position of chief arrester in the county is waiting for him. In the future, the law and order will be clear, and Ziyi will be the county official. It is not impossible to obtain a formal official status."

Li He expressed his welcome, and then directly recruited them.

The basic operating logic of society is violence.

The standing combat force of Fengping County is 100 government servants in the county government, and about 1000 temporary workers who have no establishment.

In addition, because it is located on a major traffic road, there is a 500-strong regular army stationed outside Fengping County, which is the entire combat power of Fengping County.

And what is the concept of first-class master?
Easily kill fifty armored soldiers without injury, and at least kill hundreds of armored soldiers in a head-to-head battle without retreating.

If a first-class master escapes, he will not be able to pose a real threat to him without sending out thousands of troops to chase and intercept him.

Therefore, Lin Ze, who can be called a first-class master in the entire Great Zhou Dynasty, has extremely strong value in the United Front.

This is true for Bo Gaofei, the county magistrate Li He, or higher-ranking officials.

Compared with an enemy with one more first-class master, of course, it is more cost-effective to have one more friendly combat power of a first-class master who is knowledgeable and interesting.

This is why they welcomed Lin Ze from the very beginning.

"Thanks to Master Li's love."

"To be honest, apart from practicing martial arts, this junior's biggest hobby is reading. I think I have some knowledge. Apart from traveling to increase my knowledge, my other plan is to prepare for the children's test that will be held in the next period of time."

"So in the next period of time, I will concentrate on my studies, and I am afraid that I will not be able to serve as the chief arrester of the county."

"However, this junior will live in this county for a period of time. If you have any embarrassing things, you can directly order them."

Lin Ze probably knew why the officials in front of him were enthusiastic about him.

Although purely in terms of martial arts, Lin Ze is only at the third-rate level.

But he has a gun, and his actual combat power is not inferior to that of ordinary first-class masters, or even surpassed.

However, he was busy with transactions between the two worlds, so he didn't have the time and energy to be trapped in this small county town as a headhunter.

But he couldn't directly refuse to offend people, so he said what he said now.

Although theoretically speaking, the imperial examinations of the Great Zhou Dynasty also had to check the innocence of three generations, but since he is recognized as a first-class master by everyone, he naturally has some privileges.
