Diary of the life of a working wizard

"Lieutenant Zhou County, Xia Yunjie's ability to kill Cui Shuo and Yu Wendu is indeed extraordinary. I'm afraid he is even more powerful than you and Zhang Xian. Even I may not be able to kill him. Capture him and put him in charge. It is naturally impossible for him to dedicate him to the old demon Cui Yan. Not to mention that no one in our county government has the ability to catch him. Maybe they will force him to rebel, and there will be another disaster. Even if someone can catch him, if this is the case It's a shame for me." After the county magistrate stopped the quarrel between the two, he touched his chin and said in deep thought.

"Your Excellency is wise, and my subordinates also think the same way. How can we say that we are officials, and the Withered Bones Cult are bandits? Are we still afraid of them? Besides, this time I robbed the Cui Mansion and gained a lot of wealth, so I can recruit troops and buy horses. With a strong general like Xia Yunjie at the same time, it would be a fool's dream to attack the Withered Bone Sect, but it is a sure thing to defend the county. The Withered Bone Sect could not attack our county, so they naturally withdrew." Zhou Liang said with great joy after hearing this. He also presented a list of the confiscated property and said, "Please take a look, sir. Xia Yunjie is a smart and knowledgeable person. However, he didn't even take a piece of immortal stone from the Cui Mansion. He gave them all to his subordinates for disposal." .”

"So, that Xia Yunjie is really a smart and knowledgeable person, but unfortunately he is a little too reckless by nature." County Magistrate Wei Chong took the list and glanced at it, his eyes suddenly lit up, that chapter Xian also turned his head a little and took a glance, his eyes also lit up, revealing a hint of greed.

Although most places in the Immortal Realm are filled with Fairy Spirit Qi, which is many times richer than the lower world, the Fairy Spirit Qi required in the Immortal Realm is very large, and the Fairy Spirit Qi in ordinary places can no longer meet their needs. Therefore, if the immortals in the immortal world want to improve their cultivation, their expenses are very huge. For example, when you reach a critical moment in your cultivation, you need the help of elixirs. In daily cultivation, you also need to have a fairy cave or mansion with rich fairy spirit. Whether it is elixir or creating a fairy cave or mansion with rich fairy spirit, these are all It requires a huge amount of fairy stones. As for wanting a magic weapon to fight against others, that goes without saying.

Cui Shuo, for example, not only spent a lot of time refining a Hundred Poison Banner, but also spent countless fairy stones to purchase the materials for refining the Hundred Poison Banner.

Although county magistrates and county magistrates are considered high-level official positions in the immortal world, they have annual salaries. Although the salaries are quite high for ordinary immortals, they are somewhat insufficient for immortals of their level and status. . Because an immortal of their level and status must have some disciples, soldiers, and many wives and concubines, but these require a lot of expenditure, so that the seemingly generous salary seems a bit stretched.

Cui Shuo was a wealthy man in the county and had a lot of wealth. Although Zhou Liang had already withheld some privately, the amount still shocked the county magistrate and the county magistrate.

"Although he is a bit reckless by nature, he is a rare warrior. With him here, we have a better chance of winning. Besides, if you want to surrender to the old demon Cui Yan, then the old demon Cui Yan will definitely have to do it." Ask for Cui Shuo's property back." Zhou Liang said.

Seeing Zhou Liang say that Cui Yan Laomo wants to ask for Cui Shuo's property, Wei Chong and Zhang Xian's wide eyes immediately narrowed, revealing a sharp light.

"It's just that Demon Cui Yan is so powerful! If he attacks, what if we can't resist it? As a parent, I have to think about it!" Wei Chong tapped his fingers on the table. He was reluctant to part with the wealth he had obtained, but he was also worried that the old demon Cui Yan was powerful.

"Since Mr. Zhou said that Xia Yunjie is a fierce general and he was the cause of the disaster, if Old Devil Cui Yan comes to fight, why not let Xia Yunjie lead the battle. We can also wait for an opportunity to have a glimpse of the true strength of the Withered Bone Sect. If If you can fight, then fight. If you can't fight, then after Cui Yan Lao Mo killed Xia Yunjie, most of his anger will naturally disappear. Let's say a few more good words and give Cui Yan Lao demon the wealth confiscated from Cui Mansion. The face of the devil. I think he got revenge and gained wealth, so he naturally retreated." County Prime Minister Zhang Xian said with narrowed eyes, revealing a sinister and cunning look.

When Zhou Liang heard this, he almost became angry. Just when he was about to speak out, the county magistrate Wei Chong spoke first: "Although this plan allows us to advance or retreat, if it spreads out, it will damage my reputation, and it will also It is not advisable to chill the hearts of soldiers."

Seeing the county magistrate say this, Zhou Liang's expression softened and he glared at Zhang Xian fiercely. Zhang Xian didn't care at all about Zhou Liang's gaze, instead he looked faintly disappointed.

"Let's do this. Lieutenant Zhou, you can use two-thirds of the money confiscated this time to recruit troops and buy armor and weapons. Send some to Xia Yunjie too. He is so sensible, so we can't treat him badly. Of course, the disaster is He provoked it, and when the old demon Cui Yan came, he was able to exert great force. If he dared to flinch even a little bit, I would be the first to spare him." Wei Chong said.

Seeing that the county magistrate said that two-thirds of the proceeds would be used to recruit troops and purchase additional armor and weapons, Zhang Xian's face clearly showed an expression of pain. However, the county magistrate had made up his mind, and since Zhou Liang was still watching eagerly, he couldn't say anything else.

Next, the three of them discussed in detail, and Zhou Liang got up first to say goodbye and leave.

After leaving the county government, Zhou Liang immediately made arrangements to recruit troops and purchase weapons and armor. After these arrangements were made, Zhou Liang rode towards the barracks where Xia Yunjie was located in the west of the city. Behind him was a motorcade, and the carriages of the motorcade were filled with property that had been confiscated from the Cui Mansion and were to be delivered to Xia Yunjie.

Naturally, the fairy world also has space storage magic weapons such as mustard bags and storage rings, but the space in the fairy world is solid and stable. It is much more difficult to refine such magic weapons than in the lower world, and the material requirements are much higher, but its value is very expensive. Even though Zhou Lianggui is a county captain, he only owns a mustard seed bag that is a few meters square and has extremely limited space. No matter how high-end it is, he is reluctant to buy it. Therefore, the confiscated property had to be transported by horse-drawn carriage.

When he arrived at the military camp in the west of the city, Zhou Liang gave him the wealth that should be allocated to Xia Yunjie, and relayed the county magistrate's wishes to him. Of course, he did not forget to mention the magistrate's insidious strategy and his own hard work. , lest Xia Yunjie doesn't know what is good and takes the side of the county magistrate in the future, Zhou Liang will suffer a big loss.

"Thank you, sir. This matter was caused by a subordinate. I will do my best when the time comes." Xia Yunjie said with his fists clasped, but he had a murderous intention towards the county magistrate in his heart.

Because the county magistrate should not have done anything wrong. Here he wanted to use his hands to obtain the property of Cui Mansion, but there he pushed him out to die. This kind of behavior is really shameless and insidious.
