Chapter 60 I, Lin Feng, am back
  At the end of October in northern Shaanxi, a cold wind suddenly rose, and Lin Feng and others who were on their way tightened their clothes.

Since they had brought a lot of women with them, it got dark too early, so the speed back to Fugu was obviously much slower this time. After walking for five or six days, they finally arrived at the south gate of Fugu City on the last day of October.

Looking at the still dilapidated Fugu City Gate, showing all the vicissitudes of life, Lin Feng couldn't help but sigh, this was finally his first city in the Ming Dynasty.

Sun Jiewu wanted to go in first and notify the people from the county government to come and greet the new county magistrate, but Lin Feng stopped him, saying that he was already familiar with the roads, so there was no need to welcome him, so he could just go in.

After entering the county town, Lin Feng asked Lin Jiakang to take Lin's mother, younger sister and others to Lin's house to settle down first, while he went to the county government office first.

When they arrived at the county magistrate's office, before they had time to sit down, Su Shunnian, an old official with a good ear, came over immediately when he heard the noise and said enthusiastically: "Sir, you are finally back."

"Old Su, you want to change your title to Lord County Lord." Sun Jiewu nodded.

"Ah, congratulations, sir. It's great that you have been promoted to the county magistrate." Su Shunnian shouted in surprise. He was Lin Feng's die-hard, so of course he was happy to hear the news.

Lin Feng motioned for the two of them to sit down and asked, "How is the situation in the county government recently?"

"Everything else is normal, except that Luo Jingyuan, who is on the arrest team, is a little abnormal, and he dared to block Li's grain and oil. I went to him, but he didn't give me any face.

Recently, the government officials who are on duty have often gone out to the streets to get food and ask for cards, and the merchants are very dissatisfied. "Su Shunnian seized the opportunity and immediately filed a complaint.

When Lin Feng heard this, his eyes were slightly confused: "Oh, this Luo Bantou is really good, even I dare not take him seriously. Sun Bantou, this is the person you recommended."

The words that were neither light nor serious scared Sun Jiewu and immediately knelt down, "County Lord, County Lord, there was really no one available at that time. I didn't know that he was a ruthless person. Please forgive me, County Lord."

"Get up, take people to arrest the man named Luo, and let him know why the flowers are so red." Lin Feng ordered.

"Yes!" Sun Jiewu hurried out to arrest people.

"My lord, why are the flowers so red?" Su Shunnian asked curiously.

"Just punch me in the nose and you'll know. Do you want to try it?" Lin Feng said as if he was looking at an idiot.

"Ah, forget it then, forget it." Su Shunnian said quickly.

County prison.

Luo Jingyuan has been living a happy life recently. None of the county officials are here, and the offices and classes in the county government are not subordinate to each other. He has completely let himself go. Relying on the law enforcement power in his hands, he went around the county to get cards and get a lot of benefits.

In the clear day, he summoned a few new recruits to find a secluded place in the prison to drink. He even hired a woman to accompany him, making him even more corrupt than the original Wang Tongchun.

This woman's husband was imprisoned for committing a crime. She came over to beg the arrest squad for some care, but Luo Jingyuan caught her and ordered her to drink with her in the cell, otherwise she would make her husband look good.

"Boss, this is the life our arrest team should live," said a yamen servant.

"That's right, that's right, if we listen to that Lin County Prime Minister and do nothing to perform our duties according to law, we are not allowed to drink northwest wind all day long, how can we drink the small wine today." Another Yamen servant immediately agreed and picked up the wine glass. Toast.

Luo Jingyuan raised his glass and took a sip, and said, "Come on, you guys have to take it easy. Wait until Prime Minister Lin comes back. If he is reinstated, everyone should be more cautious."

"Tch, Lin Feng has been suspended, how can the state government let him go?" The government official who had just finished the toast said disapprovingly.

"Report, report to the squad leader, that County Magistrate Lin is back and has entered the county government compound. Do you want to go and greet him?" A government servant came over to report.

"Is the county minister back?" Luo Jingyuan asked after thinking for a while.

"No."

"Then leave him alone. A suspended county magistrate can't care about me. Keep drinking, keep drinking." Luo Jingyuan continued on the road to death.

……

"Bang!" The cell door was kicked open.

Sun Jiewu rushed in with a few people. Looking at the wine table with messy glasses, he saw a woman accompanying the drink with an obviously forced expression. He suddenly said angrily:
  "Well, Luo Jingyuan, I haven't seen you for a few days, and I didn't know you were living such a cool life."

"It turns out it's Team Leader Sun. Let's sit down and have a drink together so that I can give you a toast, brother." Luo Jingyuan saw that it was Sun Jiewu who was here and invited him politely.

"If we have a drink together, we will go to the road of death together." Sun Jiewu said sarcastically. "Boss Sun, I respect you as my old leader, and you can't curse me like this." Luo Jingyuan felt that he and Sun Jiewu were now on an equal footing, and the arresting squad had much more real power than the petitioning squad, so his words were limited. You're welcome.

"I think you have completely forgotten what Lin County Cheng said when you took office, telling you not to become another Wang Tongchun. What a pity." Sun Jiewu sighed.

"Lin County Magistrate has been suspended, why do you still mention him? Apart from making us work, what good can he do? This kind of life is what our county officials should live." Luo Jingyuan said still without knowing whether to live or die.

When Sun Jiewu saw that this man was indeed hopeless, he immediately ordered: "Get Luo Jingyuan!"

Several Zhuangban yamen officers immediately stepped forward to take someone away. The arresting squad yamen officer who was drinking wanted to come up and stop him, but his opponents, the Zhuangban yamen officers who had recently been trained very strictly, were all captured.

"Sun Jiewu, I am also the leader of the squad, why do you arrest me!" Luo Jingyuan said unconvinced.

"If you have anything to say, tell the county magistrate."

"Ah, the county magistrate is back?"

"Not only are you back, there will be a surprise later. Take it away." Sun Jiewu didn't bother to talk to him anymore. Someone who was obviously going to die didn't deserve to talk anymore.

After a while, Luo Jingyuan was taken to the county magistrate's office.

"Your Majesty, Luo Jingyuan has been arrested," Sun Jiewu reported.

"Go to the county magistrate's office to call the county magistrate? Did you call me wrong? Could it be that County Magistrate Zhang has already gone to Lin County Magistrate's place? It's broken. It seems that Lin County Magistrate has been reinstated. Why is this state government so unreliable?" Luo Jingyuan thought in his heart It was full of drama, but it was a pity that no one watched his performance.

"Bring it in!" Lin Feng ordered.

Luo Jingyuan thought he heard the wrong voice, and was brought in with a confused look on his face. He saw Sun Jiewu and Su Shunnian standing at the bottom, and Lin Fenggao sitting in the main seat.

"County Lord, when I went to arrest Luo Jingyuan, he actually organized a group of government officials to drink alcohol in the prison, and even forced a prisoner's family member to accompany him. This is absolutely crazy. He is worse than the original Wang Tongchun. I made an improper recommendation. Please forgive me. ." Sun Jiewu cupped his hands and said.

"County Honor? Lin Feng has become the county magistrate? It's over, it's over." Cold sweat broke out on Luo Jingyuan's head, and he immediately fell to his knees and shouted:
  "My lord, my lord, I was wrong. I shouldn't have been ungrateful and went to seal Li's grain and oil. Please be noble and spare this villain's life!"

Lin Feng glanced at Luo Jingyuan with sharp eyes and said coldly: "Luo Jingyuan, you still know that you are ungrateful. You have deteriorated very quickly."

Luo Jingyuan knew that he was doomed this time, so he could only kowtow and beg.

"Tell me, who ordered you to seal Li's Grain and Oil?" Lin Feng asked.

As if he had grasped a life-saving straw, Luo Jingyuan immediately got up and said: "I'm recruiting, I'm recruiting. It's Guo Xiangdong, the owner of Yihehao in the county. He is also in the grain and oil business. Look at the market that Li's Grain and Oil occupies in the county. The share is getting bigger and bigger, so he wants me to help him. Sir, I’ve taken them all, please spare my life.”

"Take him down and let Jiang Yin from the execution room review him according to law and put forward his opinions on how to deal with it." After understanding the basic situation, Lin Feng didn't want to talk too much with this kind of person.

After Luo Jingyuan was taken away, Lin Feng then asked Su Shunian: "What is the situation with Guo Xiangdong, the owner of the Yihe Hao?"

"Back to the county, Yihehao is the largest grain and oil merchant in the county. The Guo family is also a big family in Fugu County. It used to be that they had a good relationship with Ding Yingqi, Wang Tongchun and others, and used various means to occupy most of the county. Grain and oil business, and often hoarding, harming the people, has a bad reputation among the people." Su Shunian has been in the county government for many years, and he still knows the situation very well.

"First of all, your household should collect evidence of the illegal operation of the 'Yihe Hao'. You can't say that you have offended me, so you can block him immediately. You should also pay attention to it in the future, and you must exercise your powers in accordance with the law. Don't get along with the gang of arresters." We are all the same." Lin Feng ordered.

"The junior official understands, but even if you act according to the law, you must also obey the arrangements of adults." Su Shunnian, this old boy, is still a sensible person.

"Okay, you work hard. When the opportunity comes, I will recommend you to be a Dianshi. The county government has so many things to do, and it is impossible without an assistant official." Lin Feng was quite satisfied with Su Shunnian, who was both loyal and cautious. , is a useful person.

Last time, Zhang Zhizhou said that Fugu County would recommend candidates for Dianshi, and Lin Feng was considering this matter.

Unlike the county magistrate, the Dianshi is an official who has to be selected by the Ministry of Civil Affairs. Generally, it is decided by the state government. It is enough to submit a case to the superior. The recommendation from the county is still very weighty.

Su Shunnian was overjoyed when he heard this and said, "Thank you so much, Lord County Master, for your appreciation. I will repay you with all my heart and soul."

"Okay, we haven't finished these horoscopes yet. Don't think too much, just do your job well and keep a low profile, do you understand?"

"I understand, I understand, I understand!" Su Shunnian nodded quickly.
