Rebirth King of Pit Climbing

Chapter 335 The First Fire

Before Yang Ling left the capital, Old Shen once carefully advised Yang Ling on how to become an official. In the past, in the capital, Yang Ling had various connections to protect him and did not need to worry too much. Now that he is an official, he must always pay attention to this.

The theory can be summed up in six words - establishing prestige, establishing virtue, and establishing merit. To establish prestige is to put power over others, making them afraid of themselves and afraid to bully them at will.

Bearing oneself down; establishing morality is also simple. How to say being an official? There must be enemies, and if there are enemies, there will be friends. That is to attack the enemies and win over your friends. When Yang Ling was in Liyang, who was the enemy and who was the friend, then naturally

It is clear at a glance; the final meritorious service requires that one must conscientiously complete the tasks assigned by the emperor. This is the most important point of being an official.

It is said that there are three things that a new official should do when he takes office. At this moment, Yang Ling is sitting in the lobby preparing for his first thing. Yang Ling is also ready to practice Old Shen's theory and establish his authority first.

"Dong Weng, please pay attention to your manners. After all, you are now a county magistrate." Master Zhuge was nagging in Yang Ling's ears like a housekeeper. It was because Yang Ling was really shameless, and the official uniform seemed to be dragged out of the dog's asshole.

Not to mention what came out, the black gauze hat that made everyone in the world jealous was even taken off by Yang Ling. After playing with it carefully, a pair of feet was raised directly on the desk, looking at whether he was sitting or standing.

Standing phase.

Yang Ling frowned resentfully. As a master like Mrs. Xianglin, I call this tactics, do you understand? First, he acted like a second-generation ancestor, letting the people below him relax their vigilance, and then suddenly killed them by surprise. Think about it.

This group of people would look like they were mourning for their heirs, and Yang Ling felt secretly happy.

At this time, there was a sudden cough outside the door. Immediately afterwards, a group of people came in to meet Yang Ling, the new magistrate. There were three people in the front, wearing straight official uniforms. They looked carefully, but Yang Ling was able to catch them.

There was a hint of ridicule in his eyes. The man in the front was a bit old, so he must be the Prime Minister of Ma County. According to Chief Diao, Yang Ling said yesterday

We have seen it before. Behind Master Diao is a man with a fierce face, who must be Wang Dianshi. Yang Ling is surprised. The Cheng Dynasty has a perverted requirement for the selection of officials, that is, good appearance. Not to mention appearance.

For someone as handsome as Yang Ling, who is causing trouble to women all over the world, at least he can't hinder the appearance of the city. I don't know how Wang Dianshi passed the official selection test.

Everyone stood in front of Yang Ling and saluted politely: "See the county magistrate!"

Yang Ling waved his hand: "I'm sorry. The most annoying thing for me is etiquette. Okay, okay, let's get up and talk. I'm new here. If there's anything I don't understand, I still need your guidance."

"I don't dare to take it!" Ma Xian Cheng came out and cupped his hands and said: "The previous county magistrate was transferred, and we have been looking forward to the new county magistrate's arrival. The affairs are really complicated. I have the holy hope, and it is really wonderful to see the county magistrate today.

Three lifetimes of good fortune."

Although the words are very beautiful, Yang Ling is not so naive that these people are eager to take office, especially this Ma County Prime Minister. Without Yang Ling, he is the biggest in Liyang. I guess this bastard wishes to fall to his death on the road.

Yang Ling smiled and asked kindly: "Since the surname of the Prime Minister of Ma County is Ma, does he have any connection with the local Ma family?"

"No, the law stipulates that officials are not allowed to serve in the local area." Ma County Prime Minister answered honestly.

"Okay, okay, now that we've finished talking, let's start the handover!" Yang Ling said.

"Yes!" Ma Xian Cheng took a few books from the people on the side and put them in front of Yang Ling respectfully: "These are the account books and keys of the local county treasury. Please keep them."

"Okay!" Yang Ling casually picked up the account book from the table and started reading it. It didn't matter. Yang Ling was so jealous that his teeth itched with hatred. Liyang was a very wealthy county, but there was only three hundred and twenty silver in this warehouse.

Thirteen taels, sixty-five guan of copper coins have 42 Wen coins, and the rest include as many bolts of silk, as many loads of raw silk, and as many loads of tea leaves. Although the names look nice, the amount makes Yang Ling feel only two.

One word, haha!

Yang Ling looked at each item one by one, but there was nothing unusual. It could be said that he looked very carefully. Seeing that Yang Ling was silent, Ma County Prime Minister couldn't help but murmur in his heart. Although the number in the account book was correct, there were a lot of tricks in it.

A young man like Yang Ling actually didn't get angry immediately when he saw such a shabby account book, which made everyone feel very strange.

Yang Ling was fascinated by looking at the account books. He felt pity for these people who did not have Yang Ling's order and did not dare to leave without authorization. He had to wait there motionless. He did not know whether Yang Ling did it intentionally or not. Master Zhuge reminded Yang Ling several times,

They all turned a blind eye to him.

Well, a group of people stood there for an hour. Others said that the county magistrate was old and couldn't bear it anymore, so he had to shout: "County Lord, County Lord..."

"What's wrong, didn't I tell you that you are not allowed to disturb me when you are looking at the account books? Do you still understand the rules? There will be no wages next month." Yang Ling suddenly shouted, making Ma County Cheng very embarrassed.

.

Yang Ling raised his eyes and looked at Ma Xian Cheng, who looked embarrassed, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, that officer used to read the account books a lot. There was such a rule, but he forgot it for a while and thought he was in the capital.

, Ma County Cheng, don’t worry about it. By the way, Ma County Cheng calls me, is there something wrong?”

"Well, County Lord, do you have any other instructions? If not, we will go out and get busy." Ma Xian Cheng said with a smile.

Unexpectedly, Yang Ling waved his hand and said: "No hurry, the three adults might as well sit down for a moment. I still have many questions. As for the others, just go and hurry up. In short, you must keep these five words in mind and serve the people. I will be there soon."

Check your work."

Everyone had no choice but to disperse as told, leaving only three lonely adults to stay with Yang Ling. Yang Ling looked at his three deputies. According to the modern level, he was the mayor, and these people were deputy mayors.

Long, I still need to save face

It's given. Yang Ling said to Master Zhuge: "Mr. Zhuge, please go and make a pot of tea. Just use the tea leaves I brought. By the way, if you don't mind, help me find an abacus. This account

, it makes my head hurt just to see it.”

"Don't bother me. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask." Ma Xian Cheng declined politely.

"What's the trouble? Let me tell you, I secretly intercepted these tea leaves, otherwise my old man, oh, the one you call Shen Xiangguo, will drink them all." Yang Ling was very angry.

polite.

After a while, Master Zhuge brought tea and an abacus. Yang Ling politely invited everyone to drink tea while he did the calculations. In fact, according to Yang Ling's mathematical knowledge, there was no need for an abacus in this calculation. Take this

Abacus, but in order to show that I am more professional.

Everyone saw Yang Ling drawing some strange symbols on the white paper, but they didn't understand what Yang Ling was doing. After a while, Yang Ling stretched out and complained: "Who remembers the accounts? I'm exhausted.

Already."

Yang Ling raised his head and looked at the three deputies who were a little embarrassed, and said with a smile: "Sir, there seems to be something wrong with this account book?" Yang Ling sneered in his heart. The single-entry accounting method used now means that all income and expenses are written down densely.

It's a big list. It looks like the accounts are carefully made, but what's inside can be

It's an easy thing for those who keep accounts repeatedly to fool the ordinary county magistrate. After all, although those nerds learned "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" and so on, they were just extracurricular reading materials at most. The three bastards in front of them obviously forgot

Knowing Yang Ling's background, he actually tried to use this method to get through.

Hearing Yang Ling's words, the expressions of the three people present changed. Master Zhuge also coughed heavily, reminding Yang Ling to pay attention to the impact and not forget what he said to Yang Ling yesterday. Master Zhuge told Yang Ling last night, this

It is certain that there are discrepancies in the account books, and this is the case all over the world. You must not use this kind of thing as an excuse to vent your anger, and affect the unity of the top and bottom. Unexpectedly, Yang Ling had promised well, but he mentioned it at this time.

Yang Ling had already thought about it. He wanted to establish his authority. Such a breakthrough point was perfect. If he didn't use it, it would be a suicide. Yang Ling looked past Ma Xian Cheng and landed on Master Diao. He smiled and said, "Master Diao."

Book, if I remember correctly, you should be in charge of the county’s money and food issues?”

"Yes!" Master Diao could only stand up and answer, his voice a little distorted.

"Just in time, I have some questions that I would like to ask you."

"I don't dare, please ask the county magistrate for help."

"Yes, that's it." Yang Ling didn't even raise his head: "This summer, the county has re-strengthened the river embankment, right?"

"Yes, there was a lot of rain this summer, so we organized the people to strengthen the river embankment and also dredged it up." Diao could only answer bravely.

"Well!" Yang Ling pointed to the account book and asked: "Didn't we reinforce and desilt last year? Why do we have to do it again this summer? Was it all in vain last year?"

"This..." Chief Diao was about to cry. Aren't things in the world like this? Why bother? It would be great if everyone could be officials happily: "There is a lot of rain this summer, and the Laishui River is an important lifeblood of our county.

I had to deal with it carefully, just in case, so I did it again."

"Great!" Yang Ling praised: "You never forget the people of this county. I really admire you. Moreover, the quality of the project must be better than before. You see, the expenditure on water control is actually much more than last year."

I paid one thousand taels of silver, so I guess there will be no need to repair it next year. Don’t you know? His Majesty ordered me to hand over one hundred thousand taels of silver every year. Now I am so worthless that I can’t wait to break two petals of a flower. Okay, okay!

"

Although Yang Ling said it politely, these three people broke out in cold sweats. There was something wrong with the script. (To be continued...)
