Three Kingdoms: God-level selection

A clear shout rang out, instantly attracting the attention of everyone present.

The soldiers who were about to swing their swords stopped.

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a handsome young man in a blue robe walking over.

""Old man, are you okay?"

The young man helped the old man who had fallen to the ground up and asked

"Thank you, sir. I am just too hungry and don’t have the strength to get up."

The old man shook his head and sighed.

The young man helped him to the side of the road, asked someone to support him, then looked at the soldiers and said sternly:

"Why are you guys fighting against a group of civilians?"

The soldiers looked at each other, all stunned by the young man's fierce tone.

"Who are you? How dare you interfere with public affairs here!"

The clerk who came before saw the soldiers being frightened by a young man and couldn't help but come over and shout

"Did you order the soldiers to do it?"

The young man did not answer him, but asked coldly.

"you.....Yes, so what if it's me?"

The assistant was a little scared by the young man's question and said unnaturally

""Pa!"

A crisp slap sounded.

The assistant officer screamed and fell to the ground.

"you....You lowly person, how dare you hit me!"

He screamed and looked at the young man

"Humph! You are blind, call the county magistrate here!"

The young man looked at him and said coldly

"I am the new county magistrate of Zhuo County, Su Yan!"

""Ah?"

The official originally wanted to ask the soldiers to arrest him, but he was shocked when he heard this.

""Huh? What, didn't you hear it?"

Su Yan looked at him coldly. The clerk was startled and quickly stood up and ran towards the city.

At this time, the people behind him were frightened by his identity.

"Oh my God, this is the new county magistrate!"

"At such a young age, he is already the lord of a county. It's amazing."

"Our Zhuo County is saved!"

People were talking in amazement behind him, but Su Yan paid no attention to them.

"Ding! Choose to stop the soldiers from driving away the refugees, and you will be rewarded with a marrow cleansing pill, and your reputation and charm will be slightly improved!"

The system's voice came from his mind, and Su Yan was delighted.

"Everyone, listen to me!"

He turned to look at the refugees and said loudly,"I am the new county magistrate Su Yan! Don't worry about the food problem. Once I have dealt with the handover, I will immediately open the warehouses and release the food for you."

"If you trust me, don't block the official road here."

When the people heard Su Yan said he would open the granary to release grain, they cheered immediately.

"Thank you, sir!"

""Your Excellency has shown great kindness, and I will never forget you."

The common people kowtowed and thanked him.

At this time, the sound of horses came from the city gate behind. Su Yan turned around and saw that the clerk who had just left had returned.

There were three people in front of him, also wearing official uniforms, but their uniforms were more gorgeous than his.

"Greetings, Lord County Magistrate!"

The three people walking in front came to Su Yan and bowed.

"You are?"

"We are the county magistrate, county lieutenant, and chief clerk of Zhuo County!"

Su Yan looked at the three of them and saw that the county magistrate was slightly fat, with a kind face, and looked about fifty years old.

The county lieutenant was strong and stern, about forty years old.

The chief clerk was about the same age as him, thin, and looked worried.

These three people were the main officials of Zhuo County.

"Explain to me, what's going on?"

Su Yan pointed at the refugees and said

"Um, sir, you don't know that recently there have been frequent bandits and Huns wreaking havoc in Zhuo County, and we have no choice but to prohibit these refugees from entering the city."

The county magistrate said with a wry smile

"What about the grain? Why don't you open the warehouse and release the grain?"

Su Yan asked

"Sir, we also want to, but the county government treasury of Zhuo County has not much food, and even the salary can hardly be paid. We haven't received salary for two months."

The county magistrate rolled his eyes and said helplessly.

Su Yan frowned. This county magistrate only cried to him for a long time and didn't want to solve the problem at all. He was really a mediocre person!

And he also heard a hint of resistance from his words.

"Do you have any way to solve the food problem?"

Su Yan looked at the other two.

The county lieutenant bowed and said seriously:"Your Excellency, the treasury of Zhuo County is really poor, and we have no solution."

This sentence was said with confidence, and it was obvious that he was trying to show his displeasure to Su Yan.

Su Yan became even more angry, and looked at the chief clerk and said:"What about you?"

"

Sir , the only solution now is to borrow grain.

"Borrow food? How to borrow it?"

Su Yan frowned and said

"Zhuo County is now poor, and the treasury's harvest is not enough to cover the expenditure. The only way is to report the truth to the governor and ask for food support."

The chief clerk explained.

Because of the previous Xiongnu rebellion, the governor of Zhuo County was killed, and now the governor of Youzhou, Liu Yu, has not appointed a new governor, so the most likely person to be in charge of Zhuo County now is the county magistrate of Zhuo County. After all, the county magistrate of the county seat has a higher status.

However, Su Yan did not intend to adopt this method, because this so-called borrowing of food was simply a stupid move and was not enough.

Moreover, the entire Youzhou is very poor because of the rebellion. How can Liu Yu provide him with food?

In the end, he still has to rely on himself.

"Is there no food left in the treasury now?"

Su Yan thought for a moment and asked again

"

Sir , there are still about 100 shi left, which is only enough to last for a few days.

"Take it out first and use it to help the refugees. We can think of other things later."

Su Yan waved his hand and ordered. The chief clerk had no choice but to do as he was told.

"Enter the city!"

Surrounded by the crowd, Su Yan entered the county, followed by more than a hundred refugees.

He ordered the county lieutenant to send soldiers to open a porridge shop in the east of the city to help the refugees.

Then he asked the county magistrate to summon all officials and held a meeting in the county government.

All officials, big and small, paid a visit to Su Yan, and he became familiar with him.

However, Su Yan could see that these officials were basically headed by the county magistrate, and even the county lieutenant and the chief clerk listened to him.

In front of him, they had no say at all.
