I Slay Demons in the Demon City/

Chapter 116: The Prefect

Baoqing Prefecture is more than ten times larger than Huilong County, and its population is ten times more, with more than 20 million..

1 Qiu River passes through the middle of the city. Similarly, the east bank and the west bank have a great disparity between the rich and the poor. The two regions are more closely guarded. The stratum is solidified..

However, the middle class of the whole city is relatively large, accounting for about 40 percent..

In this way, a relatively benign structure of social development has been formed, which may have a lot to do with the management methods of Xu Shichang, the governor of the government..

He carried out the policy of "high salary to maintain honesty". The monthly salary of government officials was three times that of the working class. Together with generous welfare benefits, a large number of middle class people had already been created-

Naturally, corruption cases were less than those in Huilong County…

Xu Shichang has a profound foundation in Chinese studies. He not only writes books, but also studies calligraphy..

He was also quite accomplished in painting. His landscape painting style was delicate. At Jiadebao Auction House, Magistrate Xu's paintings and calligraphy works would fetch at least 5 million yuan..

At this moment Xu Shichang is in the study, using a magnifying glass to appreciate his deep sea pearl that was auctioned back from Jiade Bao with 26.8 million..

Eunuch Hai, the manager of Xu Mansion, came over to report in a hurry:

"Master, Third Young Master is back!"

Xu Shichang frowned. When he was immersed in his private space, he hated being disturbed..

The Prefect was usually busy with official business and had a lot of things to do every day. He worried for the tens of millions of residents in the prefecture city. It was rare to have time to himself. He had to cherish it especially!

"If he comes back, he'll come back. What's the fuss?.

Well, did he cause trouble outside again?"

"Ah…Master, it's not like that..

He brought Ma Ji and Ma Xianshi back, and his cousin Cao Charlie also came over..

" Oh, that brat actually invited Immortal Master Ma back. This isn't a good thing!"

It seems that the magistrate is more interested in Ma Ji than that deep sea pearl..

Xu Shichang stood up and paced back and forth in the room, then said,

"Alright, then I'll go and see that Immortal Ma now..

Immortal Master Ma is a distinguished guest!"

He said:

"Master, wait a minute. I still have something to say..

"Well, say it, say it!

I think you're getting a little old!"

The sea father-in-law 1 face tangled said:

"Old Master, this matter is rather unexpected, so I…so I'm worried that there might be some trouble..

"If you have anything to say, say it quickly! I think you are very fussy now!

I'm very busy with work, I don't have time to listen to you keep me guessing!"

The sea father-in-law 1 face goes all out expression says:

"Master, let me be frank!

Third Young Master actually brought that wanted criminal Cheng Yaojin back!

" Ah, there's such a thing?!"

From the magistrate's expression, it seemed that Cheng Yaojin's name was bigger than Ma Ji's, which shocked him greatly.

"Isn't Cheng Yaojin a bandit on Snake Mountain?

Our government has tried several times to suppress him, but failed, and suffered heavy losses..

Does that brat have the ability to subdue Cheng Yaojin?"

Eunuch Hai hesitated and said,

"This…I'm not sure..

They seem to be friends and brothers, laughing and kissing and coming back.

Xu Shichang's heart skipped a beat and he quickly said,

"Let's go, hurry up and take a look. Let's go see what this brat has done for us!

He actually brought the most wanted criminal Cheng Yaojin home, and they were actually friends!

If others know about it and those reporters know about it, how passive and troublesome will we be?"

Xu Shichang shook his head repeatedly and anxiously got up and walked out the door..

The old butler stopped him again:

" Aiya, Old Master, this old servant still has something to tell you!"

Xu Shichang was in a bad temper now. He glared and blew his beard.

"Old man, why don't you tell me everything in one breath?

Are you squeezing toothpaste?"

Eunuch Hai blushed and gritted his teeth. He still said what he didn't want to say..

"Master, this is Cheng Yaojin. He didn't come alone. He actually brought more than 30 bandits from his bandit den together!

Look at their vicious appearance, they are ready to eat our house to the bone!

:.

Old Master, this is bad!"

The magistrate's eyes darkened, his heart started to panic, his blood pressure rose, and he almost fell to the ground. Eunuch Hai held him up..

"This bastard, he usually messes around outside. How many times have I taken the blame for him?

This time, this pot is really big. How am I supposed to end this?"

Lord Xu is exhausted and wants to cry but no tears..

"Master, don't worry, don't worry. Things aren't as bad as you think..

Eunuch Hai quickly comforted his master..

"Do you have any good news?"

"Master, isn't Ma Ji still here? Cheng Yaojin is quite obedient to Ma Ji..

Ma Ji, you know he's a very good person. With him around, any trouble won't be a problem!"

"Aiya, you're such a person. How can I say that you're good?

Old fool! Old man!

If only you had said Ma Ji earlier, what did you tell me about Cheng Yaojin?

Ma Ji, Ma Xianshi, has extraordinary abilities. Cheng Yaojin should have been subdued by Ma Ji, right?

Otherwise, Cheng Yaojin wouldn't have come back with Third Young Master!

Well, well, that makes me feel better..

Let's go, let's go see the guests early!

It's just that there are 230 more people in the house to eat. Don't tell me our family can't afford it? Hahaha, let's go!"

In the blink of an eye, the slightly fat magistrate's expression cleared and his mood became exceptionally relaxed..

Walk like a gust of wind, in the blink of an eye came to the back hall.

The back hall is where the people live..

Although it is the residence of servants, the buildings are exquisite and beautiful..

Bridges, rockeries, pavilions, everything..

Usually, no one would expect such a beautiful park-like exquisite house to be the residence of the servants..

Eunuch Hai lives here as well as in charge..

Back hall. That's the reception hall..

The reason why I'm here is because Cheng Yaojin and his gang need to settle down first..

"The magistrate has arrived!"

The servant at the door shouted loudly. Ma Ji, Cheng Yaojin, 3 Shao and Cao Charlie Zhu, who were sitting in the living room and talking happily, all stood up quickly and respectfully prepared to welcome them..

After all, this is the prefecture city. The scene is big. There are more rules for receiving people and treating things..

Ma Ji looked at the architectural style of the back hall, and the decoration inside was much more luxurious than that of Huilong County's home..

Even these servants all have qualities and speak with special gentleness..

Perhaps it was because of this Master Xu's poetry and books, so the atmosphere in the entire Xu Mansion compound was peaceful. Everyone was gentle and gentle. They often came up with idioms and poems, as if they were all scholars..

Lord Xu walked into the hall like a gust of wind and walked straight towards Ma Ji. He stretched out his hands from afar..

Although this was the first time he saw Ma Ji, Lord Xu would definitely not mistake him because Ma Ji looked really…

It's ugly. 1:00!

And Pearl, who was beside him, was strangely ugly.

In any case, he was ugly and stood out from the crowd. He was definitely the focus of attention!

" Hahaha…This must be Immortal Master Ma Ji from China! Today, I have to meet him. He is indeed extraordinary. Nice to meet you!"

Xu Shichang grabbed Ma Ji's hand and was extremely honored. He was only short of meeting him with courtesy..

Ma Ji was also very happy to see that the magistrate had a ruddy complexion, a broad heart, a fat body, three strands of long beard, and a gentle manner.

" Indeed, you know your father by the sight of your son. Young Master Xu is handsome, elegant, and outstanding. It turns out that he inherited the excellent genes of the Prefect!"

Xu Zhuo and Xu Shichang were both very happy. Xu Shichang couldn't help but look at Ma Ji more differently..

In Luosha Kingdom, there were many famous killing stars in the cultivation world. However, there were very few immortal masters like Ma Ji who spoke freely and had an elegant temperament. Xu Shichang, who was well-read and knowledgeable, felt like he had met a bosom friend..

However, when he saw Cheng Yaojin, Lord Xu's face fell, just like his expression when he was doing official business in the government hall of the prefecture city..

Xu Zhuo was a little uneasy, but he still had a free and unrestrained expression on his face.

" Father, this is Big Brother Cheng Yaojin, the Devil King of Chaos. He is an ally of Immortal Master Ma!"

This was the first time Cheng Yaojin had come into such a luxurious mansion. This was the first time he had seen a magistrate who had personally issued a wanted notice for him, but he did not have much restraint..

He stretched out his furry hand and said to Xu Shichang,

"Magistrate, in the past, I was a bandit and you were an official. Now, I am a good citizen. Don't be afraid that I will cause you trouble, right?"
