Chapter 168 I’m really busy, I won’t lie to you(1/2)
Ling Yuan calmed down after hearing the numbers told by Zhao Xing.
Because it's simply impossible.
The figures given by Zhao Xing not only exceeded Yuncheng's previous specifications, but also exceeded county-level regulations.
It's hard for a clever woman to make a meal without rice. If she can't do it, she can't kill herself.
Zhao Xingze continued: "Based on the actual situation in Yuncheng, I know this number is to embarrass you."
"But, before was before, and now is now."
"I can guarantee that Tiangongfang will have sufficient materials distributed in the future. This is the imperial government's policy. Anyone who dares to stop it will be like a mantis."
"In addition, there will be some redeployment in terms of manpower. In the past, coming here was equivalent to being assigned. But it is different now. People with lofty ideals will rush here to become officials!"
"If the materials and manpower are sufficient, but the officer's requirements cannot be fulfilled, then it will not be enough to just dismiss him from office."
Zhao Xing stood up and slowly walked down the steps from the main seat: "This is what I have said. Sirs, you can ask what you need to know and work if you need to work. There is no need to send it away anymore."
The officials present looked thoughtful. Ling Yuan studied it carefully for a moment and immediately ran out to catch up with Zhao Xing.
If the superior officer doesn't allow it, you can't really refuse to send it.
What's more, he still has something to say.
"Sir Ling, didn't I say that I won't let you send it off?" Although Zhao Xing said this, he stopped in his tracks.
"Sir, if all the materials are available, even if the official is thrown into the furnace, he will make the amount required by your Excellency! In addition to meeting the needs of the Secretary of Agriculture Supervisor for war preparation, he can even fill a batch of equipment into the Secretary of Agriculture's inner treasury!"
"Oh?" Zhao Xing raised his eyebrows. Ling Yuan was quite smart and figured it out so quickly. "Weren't you in a difficult situation just now?"
Ling Yuan whispered: "Sir, I have something to report to you."
"speak."
Ling Yuandao: "Although Yuncheng has been at war all year round, as your Excellency said, it has not been harassed on a large scale by barbarians in the past ten years."
"Since the seventh year of Jingxin, although officials have been transferred frequently and many people have tried their best to leave, the manpower of various departments in Tiangongfang has been close to full staff most of the time, and materials have been distributed in full."
"only……"
"Just what?"
Ling Yuan gritted his teeth and said: "Only the materials that can reach Yuncheng, the average number in the past 10 years is only one-third!"
"Supposedly there should be forty-nine people coming to see you today, but in fact there were only fourteen people including Xianguan. Because Yuncheng had other official duties, they were sent to Fengming Mountains for mining.
, the lower officials can’t move them.”
"I understand." Zhao Xing waved his hand, "I will give you seven days to check the warehouse accounts. I will not force you to check the warehouse accounts before your term of office. If you are within the term of office, check carefully and carefully."
"You should know in your mind who can use it and who can't. Immediately build the equipment according to the military regulations. Not only for farming, but also for city defense and attack. Use as many materials as you have and start working first. Seven days
Finally, the accounts will be handed over to me."
Ling Yuan promised: "Yes, I will definitely do it even if I risk my life! I'm afraid that the lives of Xiaguan and other brothers won't be enough."
Zhao Xing smiled, but Ling Yuan was still afraid and wanted to tell the truth from him.
He boarded the swordfish flying boat and entered the small material warehouse on the flying boat.
Ling Yuan didn't know why, but seeing that the flying boat hadn't taken off yet, he waited quietly.
A quarter of an hour later, seven straw men came down.
After that, a steady stream of straw men jumped out of the flying boat.
Soon Ling Yuan was surrounded by fifty straw men.
"Is this... a straw man's law?"
Ling Yuan was shocked.
Because the materials used by Zhao Xing are all good materials, at least they are cut from third-level plants, and some parts are even made of fourth-level plants.
Zhao Xing jumped down again and nodded towards Long Xiao.
The latter understood immediately.
Put your hands on the backs of the straw men, and each time they pass by a straw man, Long Xiao will stay for at least half of the incense stick.
Twenty days have passed since I saw the dragon zodiac in Huailiu Courtyard.
Along the way, Zhao Xing was taking advantage of Long Xiao's progress in practicing the Dharma Protector, and he was now at the intermediate seventh level.
"These are all flying guardians who were raised by me."
"The two methods are combined into one. The materials are the best. Coupled with the sword cultivation method of the brave captain Long Xiao. With the protection of the straw man, no one below the seventh level can hurt you."
"Even if you are a seventh-grade, casual practicing evil warrior, as long as you have not exceeded his realm, you will not be able to escape death if you are stabbed by the sword energy."
Zhao Xing's Feitian Dharma is a perfect, Dharma-protecting straw man. Its power mainly depends on the realm of the person who retains the Dharma. After seven rounds, Zhao Xing can barely preserve the two sword energies of Dragon and Xiao.
Who is Long Xiao? He is also one of the rare warriors among warriors! He is also a rare swordsman among warriors. He learned and summarized the incomplete sword skills he obtained from ancient tombs, and slowly perfected them. In the future, he became the famous "God"
"Xiao Sword Technique" is the top secret skill that warriors want to learn even if they break their brains.
Zhao Xing used the fourth-level material drafter and practiced it to the seventh level, but he could only save two "Geng-Gold Sword Qi" of dragon and xiao!
Combined with the flying grass man, he can fight and run.
"What, you will die even if you are a seventh-grade evil spirit refiner?" Ling Yuan's eyes were filled with shock.
This was beyond his knowledge, after all, he didn't understand how far those geniuses could go.
Storing sword energy in a straw man was already an eye-opener. After all, he had never even heard of a straw man protecting the law.
Isn't the straw man method supposed to only drive away birds and beasts? What kind of straw man is this law protector now, actually saying that it can kill ordinary seventh-level people?
But one look at the appearance of Zhao Xing and Long Xiao didn't look like they were cheating at all.
Because after Long Xiao applied sword energy to fifty straw men, he obviously became much more depressed.
"Excuse me, are these enough? Mr. Zhao and I can give you a few more!" Long Xiao laughed, but the hands behind his back were shaking.
"That's enough, that's enough." Ling Yuan saluted quickly, "I will definitely live up to my trust!"
"Let's go." After Zhao Xing gave the order to the flying guardian, he left in the flying boat.
The intermediate straw man method, especially the guardian straw man, is not like the primary straw man method. It has no distance limit and can be used even in the 'offline state'.
The straw guardian that Lao Chen gave him at the beginning could live forever and follow him to the countryside. Later, he even left it for Gui Niang.
Of course, the distance is too far, and Zhao Xing's brain machine cannot sense the situation of the Dharma Protector. Whether it is destroyed or exists, you have to go to a certain distance to know.
"Damn, I'm so exhausted." Long Xiao quickly dug out a few fruits from an asparagus box to replenish his energy. "You kid, you've made me miserable in order to appear holy in front of others. You can pick up fifty Dharma-protecting grasses in one go.
Man, you almost drained me!"
Zhao Xing looked at Long Xiao's trembling hands and couldn't help but smile: "Who was saying just now, do you want a few more bodies?"
After Long Xiao ate a few fruits, he let out a sigh of contentment and sat next to the box: "You have already said this, can I say no?"
"It's worth it even if you're squeezed dry."
"Damn, you are more ruthless than Lao Chen. He at least treats me as a human being. You bastard is just using me, this brave captain, as a bully and a horse."
Long Xiao cursed.
I thought it would be easier to leave Lao Chen and work as a protector for Zhao Xing.
Crying to death, I can't relax at all.
"Calm down, don't I think you, brother, are so wise and powerful that you can handle it? Lao Chen also said that this will also be a kind of exercise for you."
"Hmph, of course I am wise and powerful." Long Xiao said proudly, "Do you think anyone is worthy of the word brave?"
"As for exercise, well, that's right...it's just a bit hard." Long Xiao sighed. Why is there no way in this world that can help you become stronger quickly without getting tired?
"Hurry up and recover. We have to go to the county government tomorrow." Zhao Xing said.
"What are you doing at the county government office?" Long Xiao asked.
"He has no way to transfer people from Ling Yuan, the chief official of Tiangongfang, but the Yuncheng County Magistrate and County Lieutenant. However, here the County Magistrate also holds the title of County Lieutenant."
"Ling Yuan didn't say it clearly, but the meaning is very clear. It was the Yuncheng County Magistrate who transferred people from Tiangongfang to do private work, and materials entering and leaving Yuncheng must be reviewed and signed by the County Magistrate. It is very likely that he
Withheld."
Long Xiao said: "It's really weird. Yuncheng, a county at the county level, often goes to war, but the county lieutenant is vacant, so the county magistrate concurrently takes on the position of county lieutenant. I don't know how much greed this guy can have to feed the superiors.
He has become a domineering family."
Zhao Xing thought for a while and said, "I haven't seen anyone yet, so it's hard to tell. Let's go back to the Agricultural Supervisor first, and then go visit the Yuncheng County Magistrate tomorrow."
"The name of the Yuncheng County Magistrate is Shao Wanjie, and he is the seventh rank."
"He was originally a military officer, and later became a civilian county magistrate."
"He took office in Yuncheng twelve years ago. At that time, there was no vacancy for county captain, and he was only from the seventh rank."
"But later on, he got promoted every three years, all the way to the seventh rank."
After returning, Zhao Xing first chatted with Bao Wenshan.
