I am a late bloomer in the world of immortality

After reading the letter.

Wei Tu was a little surprised. The four brothers were fighting against Magistrate He at the time and decided not to join Wuyun Tower, thus withstanding a lot of pressure.

Now that he has offended Governor He, it would be unwise to join Wuyun Tower...

"Then why does Fu Zhizhou mention this so much? Could it be because...the elders of Wuyun Tower offered too high a price..."

After thinking about it, Wei Tu felt that this guess was the most credible.

Each class of Wu Xiucai is a county elite with a bright future. If the price of Wuyun Building is not too high, other Wu Xiucai will not join this martial arts sect and become a thorn in the eyes and flesh of the government.

"The first and the second are bound to suffer disaster. No matter how high the price of Wuyun Tower is, I will categorically refuse it!"

Wei Tu was determined.

After reading the letter, Wei Tu thought for a while, then threw the letter from Fu Zhizhou into the charcoal basin and destroyed it immediately.

…

The next day.

Wei Fei came to the door and conspired with Wei Tu for a long time.

The two first united their front on the matter of rejecting Wu Yunlou, and then discussed the matter of "appointment by letter" for a while, and decided to raise gifts together and go to Jian Liang, a household official, to inquire about some inside information.

Seven or eight days have passed since the two of them changed their military status, but they have not yet received the "appointment certificate" from the county government.

This time is a bit later than in previous years.

When giving gifts, Wei Fei saw Wei Tu's financial embarrassment and suggested that he buy a double gift this time. When Wei Tu's salary is paid out after he becomes an official, he can treat him to a good meal and that's it.

After hearing this, Wei Tu was not stubborn. After thanking Wei Fei, he went to the West Market in the county with him to buy gifts.

then.

The two of them each cut three kilograms of mutton and two kilograms of pork, carried several boxes of cakes, and went to Jian Liang's house to visit.

Jian Liang saw the generous gift and was very talkative. He immediately told the reason why the county government had not given them official posts.

"Brother Wei is a second-class martial arts scholar. According to previous years, he should be awarded the post of Cusi. This officer is a miscellaneous official. He is a civilian in the army and is not a good grade. But in the Xiang army, it is still a good job. The wind can't blow and the rain can't. Can’t get wet…”

"And Brother Wei is a third-class martial arts scholar. Although his official rank is not as good as that of Brother Wei, he can still get a military envoy who rewards merit and punishes crime."

"but now……"

Speaking of this, Jian Liang shook his head and pointed in the direction of Fucheng.

"Two brothers, have you offended any big shot in Fucheng?" He lowered his voice and asked.

The subordinate staff is tough and the official is smooth.

The Jian family has been a subordinate official in Qingshan County for generations. Although it is not a wealthy family in Qingshan County, its relationships are closely related and it is not afraid of high-ranking officials in the city.

Therefore, Jian Liang did not have too many scruples when speaking.

"Offend?"

"The two of us haven't offended anyone?"

When Wei Tu and Wei Fei came, they had guessed that Governor He was suppressing them, so they had already made up their excuses and were prepared.

When speaking, pretend to be dumbfounded.

Seeing this scene, Jian Liang immediately knew something in his mind. He nodded secretly and pointed out a clear path for Wei Tu and Wei Fei.

"The Xiang troops in Qingshan County are all managed by Xu County Lieutenant, and Xu County Lieutenant's wife has always been greedy for money. Brother Wei and Brother Wei can just find Butler Liu of Xu House and give him some money."

"It's just that the money sent here is just to issue letters of appointment to the two of you. It's hard to say whether the appointed officials are governors or military envoys."

he said.

Hear this.

Wei Tu and Wei Fei immediately expressed their gratitude to Jian Liang, and Wei Fei took out another ingot of silver from his purse and stuffed it into Jian Liang's hand.

"Thank you, Brother Jian, for pointing out a clear path for my two brothers."

Wei Fei bowed and thanked him.

There are people in the yamen who can do things easily.

Without the path pointed out by Jian Liang, it would be difficult for the two of them to find a suitable path even if they went to give gifts.

"We are all colleagues. I will help you two today, and you two will help me in the future." Jian Liang smiled and gave the ingot of silver in his hand to Wei Fei again.

"I accepted the gift, so I don't need the money."

he added.

…

Leave Jian’s house.

Wei Tu and Wei Fei decided that it would be better sooner rather than later, so they went to the jewelry shop in the county without stopping. After selecting gifts, they came to the Xu residence where Xu County Lieutenant lived.

After taking care of Butler Liu of Xu's house, Wei and Tu asked Butler Liu to give the gifts they selected to the wife of Lieutenant Xu.

In the afternoon of the same day, the two of them got the approval letter. Mrs. Xu asked them to wait at home. It won't take long for the county government's appointment certificate to come out.

then.

the next day.

Wei Tu, who was practicing Zhuang Kung Fu at home, received a letter of appointment from the soldiers of the Xiang Army.

He opened it and took a look.

There are three characters written on the book: "Du Jun Shi".

"The official position has been lowered by one level. This should be the county government's response to the government government. We cannot really ignore He Zhifu..."

Wei Tu thought.

Only third-class martial arts scholars will be awarded the military attache level of "Dujun Envoy".

He is a second-class martial arts scholar, and the military attache position he was awarded is at the level of "Administrator".

"The appointment of officials is the second priority. The county government cannot keep delaying it. The real suppression of the four of us by the prefect is promotion..."

Wei Tu sighed secretly.

For example, these martial arts scholars who participated in military examinations and achieved fame were popular in the local Xiang army. After being appointed as miscellaneous officials, their promotion speed was not slow.

Within ten years, he is expected to become a ninth-grade official.

Within twenty years, he is expected to become an eighth-grade official.

But because of Magistrate He's intervention, if they had no chance in this life, they would have to stay at the bottom of the Xiang Army until death, with no hope of promotion.

Even if Magistrate He were transferred and left Qingfeng Mansion a year later, it would not help.

Within the system, if you don’t do something, you can’t go wrong.

In the officialdom of Qingfeng Prefecture, the legacy of He Zhifu is still there. Therefore, even if He Zhifu's people have left the tea, their remaining power can still suppress them, the martial arts scholars who were born in poor families, and make them stand out all their lives. No end.

"But...I'm different."

"As long as I pass the next provincial martial arts examination and become a martial arts examiner, the officialdom of Qingfeng Mansion will not be able to suppress me!"

Wei Tu's eyes were shining brightly, and he slapped the willow tree planted in the courtyard into two pieces with one palm.

Rural examinations, martial arts examinations, and promotion of officials.

The military chief conferred the title of seventh-grade military attache, which was the same as the county magistrate of the same place.

The first twenty are awarded to eighth-grade officials, which are the same as the county government's assistant officials.

Once he has perfected his health-preserving skills, he can cultivate his inner Qi from the outside and inside, enter the state of feeling Qi, and achieve the top twenty in the martial arts examination, it will not be difficult.

"Be patient for three years first."

Wei Tu walked into the house and asked Xinghua to carefully keep the letter of her appointment.

"The military envoy..."

"Brother Wei, you finally stand out."

When Xinghua saw the appointment letter, her reaction was different from Wei Tu's. She didn't know the twists and turns of appointing military attachés.

"Yeah, I'm getting ahead."

When Wei Tu saw the smile on Xinghua's face, most of the depression in his heart suddenly disappeared, and his mentality returned to calm.

Yes, he was suppressed by Governor He.

But now compared to last year, his status and class have obviously jumped a lot, and his life has also undergone earth-shaking changes...

There is no need to get too hung up on these little things.

After all, he has the fate of being a "late bloomer". After a few years, he will be able to turn around again. Worrying about these small things has no other purpose than to cause trouble for himself.
