"Dang long, long long. The cows go and the grass is chopped. The cows are full and have food and clothing. When the grass bandits come, the cows hide..."

Just a few randomly made-up nursery rhymes, but it is an unforgettable past.

Every village has its own meaning, and Changliu Village is no exception.

The little guy looked in the direction of Changliu Village with wet eyes, and his tone couldn't stop being disappointed.

"Mom, father, can I still go home and feed the fish?"

He likes to feed fish, like to go fishing with his mother and father, like the village chief, and like Changliu Village.

Mu Yan gently touched the little guy's head, feeling a little lonely as she left her home again.

"We'll be back."

In fact, she was not sure about this sentence. It was just a thought that it would come back.

'The cool breeze is blowing hard, and the wanderer is cold and has no clothes. '

Wanderers always have no choice but to leave home.

At sunset, a carriage galloped on the dusty road, like a shooting star piercing the silent darkness, rushing to catch up with the pace of time.

You can still hear urging sounds from time to time on the carriage.

Yang Kai looked anxious, as the time for the new county magistrate to take over had already passed.

If what she did today were reported to the capital, she would definitely be charged with dereliction of duty, and her official title would be in jeopardy.

She is just a small county magistrate now and does not have that much power.

There are noble people everywhere in the city, and she can't afford to offend them.

At first, Yang Kai just wanted to give the peasant girl a show of strength.

He wanted the peasant girl to go to her home in person and invite him to take over the government office, but he didn't expect the new county magistrate to be so bold and ignore her existence.

It made her different inside and out.

Now she can only pray secretly that today's incident will not spread to Fucheng, otherwise she will be accused of bullying her colleagues.

Thinking of this, Yang Kai broke out in a cold sweat and urged the driver again that the handover of government affairs must be completed before dark.

"Sir, it looks like the new county magistrate is in front of us."

The sound of surprise came from outside the carriage.

When Yang Kai heard that he was overjoyed, he couldn't wait to ask the coachman to stop the car and jumped out of the carriage as fast as flying.

She took a closer look and saw that he was indeed the new county magistrate.

Yang Kai ran over quickly with his entourage, still holding the handed over documents and official seal in his hand.

Mu Yan had already seen someone running towards him, so he immediately put down the little guy in his arms and stood there waiting quietly.

Yang Kai was so anxious that he was sweating profusely. Seeing Mu Yan was like seeing an ancestor. Now she didn't dare to put on any official airs.

"Oh, Miss Yan, I finally see you. You are really easy to find."

Seeing Mu Yan's expression as usual, her mind turned to her behavior today and found a good excuse.

"I caught a cold last night. I went to the county government office late today to hand over my duties. Miss Wang Yan, please don't blame me."

Mu Yan glanced at Yang Kai indifferently, feeling that she was not ordinary thick-skinned.

"Sir Yang, the cold is a lie, but the power is real. I am just an ordinary farmer, and I am worthy of your great efforts."

Mu Yan didn't bother to make excuses with her, and directly told her what she did today.

"I didn't expect Master Yang's official authority to be greater than His Majesty's. It was really an eye-opener for Mu."

Whoever dares to be bigger than the Queen in the world will be seeking death, right?
Yang Kai panicked, the word "empress" made her tremble with fear, her legs and feet became weak, and she almost knelt on the ground.

I didn't expect this girl to be so bold and dare to say anything without fear.

Yang Kai regretted that she had offended anyone who dared to challenge the King of Donglong County.

"Sir Yan, I did something wrong today. The lard fooled my heart. I hope you, your lord, will go around me a lot this time. I will apologize to you."

Yang Kai bent down and bowed, and couldn't help but tremble in his heart.Logically speaking, as someone who was transferred to Fucheng, Mu Yan was not qualified to accept her worship.

But now I have only received an order to be transferred to Fucheng, and my position has not yet been determined. In other words, I am just a commoner.

"What are you talking about, Mr. Yang? I am just a county magistrate who has not taken away the documents and official seal. How can I bear the courtesy of Mr. Yang?"

Yang Kai knew that this matter was not a good one, and now she was so regretful that her intestines were green because she had provoked such a lunatic.

Yang Kai quickly handed the official seal and documents to Mu Yan with a flattering look on his face.

"Sir Yan, there are a lot of them. Please accept the official seal. It's all my fault." She took out a few banknotes from her arms. "It's just a small thing and not respectful. I hope the county magistrate will expose this matter."

Mu Yan took the banknotes and counted them. There were only six of them and sent the beggar away.

"Master Yang Gaoyi, you are about to go to Fucheng, and you can also raise funds for the people of Longcheng. This is really a noble and honorable move.

Mu Yan took a few glances at the bank notes and said, "Master Yang must not be able to bear to see the people of Longcheng suffer, so the donation must be more than this."

Yang Kai repeatedly said yes, but now that she is mute, she cannot tell how hard it is to eat Coptis chinensis.

Mu Yan used the excuse of doing things for the people. If she didn't show more sincerity, it would mean that she didn't care about the people.

Then today's matter will definitely not be so easy to solve, and it will cause more trouble in the future because of this matter.

"Don't worry, Sir Yan. I will do my best for the sake of the people."

Things that can be solved with money are no big deal.

With Mu Yan's move today, she will be able to read a copy of it when she gets to Fucheng from now on, which will definitely make her walk around without food.

Su Jishan, who came after hearing the sound, only saw the back of Yang Kai leaving in panic.

"My subordinate is late, please punish me."

Su Jishan originally wanted to follow Mu Yan to Changliu Village, but Mu Yan refused.

She was just here to pick up the little one, so there was no need for so many people.

Su Jishan had been observing Yang Kai's movements in Longcheng, but unexpectedly he was still a step too late.

"Nothing, just get up."

She had already said that there was no need to kneel, but Su Jishan still couldn't change his habit of kneeling.

Mu Yan looked at the banknote with an unclear expression, and she could clearly see the expression that flashed across Yang Kai's eyes just now.

If you want to use these bank notes to help her collect bribes, she must have this ability.

Su Jishan looked at the banknote in Mu Yan's hand with curiosity.

"Sir, is this?"

Mu Yan handed the banknote and official seal to Su Jishan, "Yang Kai gave it to me."

Su Jishan was shocked. Her family members collected money on the first day they took office?
"Is there anything wrong with this, sir?"

She has just become famous and is ready to show off her talents. She doesn't want to die so soon!

Mu Yan picked up the little guy and said calmly, "Don't worry about the donations for road construction in Longcheng."

Charity?

Su Jishan was like a roller coaster at this moment, and couldn't help but admire in his heart: This is amazing, my lord.

It is true that they took the money well, but the money was actually used on the people, and no one dares to say anything.

"When you go back, prepare a book and record the origin and usage of the banknotes. There will be many more things like this in the future."

What does more mean?
Su Jishan was amazed, could someone still give them money?

"Yes, my lord."

With Yang Kai starting like this, the big shots in Longcheng couldn't sit still.
