I Slay Demons in the Demon City/

Chapter 247 Salt Gang

Zhao Zilong, Lu Zhi and Shi Qian were all left behind.

Ma Ji asked,"Then where are you going, Lord Song?"

Song Jiang 1 face lonely said:

"I'd better go home first!

If there is a day you still need me, I will come back to study hard, and then re-take the civil service exam!

At worst, start over.

I am almost 50 years old this year, and I still have ambitions. I want to serve my country!"

Ma Ji was very surprised:

"Sigh, don't you think that Luosha officials can be transferred to other places? At most, they will be demoted. How can they be dismissed?"

Cao Cao said:

"This isn't dismissal, anyway, it depends on your own wishes, but you have to have money!.

It's the same for everyone..

Lord Song is penniless now. If he were transferred to another place, he wouldn't be able to support a group of officials..

It is definitely impossible to remove him from office. He will be demoted to become a county magistrate in the county. It will also cost money..

If you don't have money, you really can't be an official. It's like doing business. If you don't even have the capital, what kind of business are you doing?"

Ma Ji seemed to understand and seemed to understand nothing:

"Oh, so that's how it is! Everything you do in Luosha needs capital, even officials are the same..

Ma Ji originally wanted to keep Song Jiang. Song Jiang still had some talent..

But thinking of this guy, betraying his brother to join the court in Water Margin, Ma Ji was unhappy..

Just now, Song Jiang said that he wanted to serve the country. It should be true..

In order to recruit an official, Song Jiang poisoned his brothers, which Ma Ji could not accept..

However, Outlaws of the Marsh is a novel. Ma Ji is not sure whether this Song Jiang in front of him is the same person as Song Jiang in the novel..

Thinking about it, I feel sorry for Song Jiang..

After studying so hard, I finally got an official position. It's not a big deal to go back with all my wealth now..

So Ma Ji said to Cao Cao:

"Looks like Lord Song doesn't want to leave this place..

Lord Cao, your yamen needs to be rebuilt. Do you also need talents? How about keeping Lord Song in the Executive Yuan as a clerk?

Our yamen will soon prosper, we will all have money, and you will all live a good life!"

Originally, Ma Ji's suggestion made Cao Cao very unhappy..

Because in Luosha Kingdom, a former superior becomes a subordinate and cannot be kept by one's side, or two prefects appearing in a prefecture city should not be.

The key was Ma Ji's suggestion. Cao Cao felt uncomfortable and could only agree:

"I don't have any objections. The key is, can Lord Song and Song Jiang accept it?"

To his surprise, Song Jiang was overjoyed to hear Ma Ji say so..

Cao Cao himself said that he had no opinion. He immediately knelt on the ground with a "plop" and threw himself to the ground in gratitude to Cao Cao and Ma Ji. His eyes were filled with tears and said:

"Thank you, Immortal Master Ma, and thank you, Lord Cao, for keeping me here!

Actually, I have worked here for 3 years, and I still have a lot of work experience to serve you..

Lord Cao, if you want to reorganize and rebuild the Yamen, reorganize the army's plans, and sort out all kinds of rules and regulations, I will contribute all my strength..

I hope you don't look down on my previous identity. Song Jiang died in the past and has nothing to do with Zhao Zilong and the others!

Now I am just a small clerk, and my heart is dedicated to serving Lord Cao and Master Ma!"

Song Jiang's performance simply refreshed Ma Ji and Cao Cao's eyeballs_

This person's face changed faster than the sky?

However, to be able to put down his pride and act however he wanted, he was indeed a talent!

This ability is something that ordinary people cannot do..

Zhao Zilong Shiqian saw Song Jiang's fawning appearance and completely shattered the three views. He shook his head and turned away..

Since Song Jiang was so humble, Cao Cao could only help Song Jiang up generously and say,

"Alright, alright. Sir Song doesn't have to be like this..

Then hand over your official seal..

Then, you can guide me as a Grand Advisor!"

Song Jiang1 was overjoyed when he heard that. He said humbly,

"Lord Cao! This--can't be done, can't be done! What virtue can I have? How dare I, Grand Advisor?

Even more dare not talk about what guidance, rather say to be a staff member, to be able to help Lord Cao solve problems, is my greatest wish.

At this time, Lu Zhi carried a large iron pot into the house and shouted:

"Fresh beef hotpot, I might as well buy the pot too!"

Ma Ji and the others couldn't help but want to cry-what a strange foodie!

:.

: Everyone is drinking together. For Song Jiang and the others, dinner is as sumptuous as New Year!

After dinner, we'll rest..

Ma Ji, you and his disciples live in the Yamen Guest House. This is the best room..

Ma Ji didn't sleep well that night. Chang Yuefu's situation was too bad. First of all, the public security problem had to be solved. Otherwise, it would not be safe to explore the Netherworld Sea.

There's no way out..

Originally, he regarded this Chang Yuefu as his backup position.

How could he rest assured when the backup position was so bad?

The next morning, Ma Ji called Liu Hai and said:

"How about this? Go inform the leaders of every gang in the prefecture and ask them to come to the yamen for a meeting..

How many gangs and local snakes are there in this prefecture? You can check the register in the yamen and find out..

Ma Ji's orders, Liu Hai dare not delay, immediately set out to do.

He went to the Yamen Archives Bureau to check. If he didn't check, he wouldn't know. If he checked, he was shocked. Liu Hai didn't expect that there were more than 200 gangs in Changyuefu City!

Gang, also known as trade association.

That is, trade associations were organized by working people from all walks of life. At that time, trade associations were to unite the disadvantaged groups and the people at the bottom to have strength..

Only later, trade associations became confused with gangs.

Almost every industry has gangs..

Everyone with a job has to join a gang..

Liu Hai is holding the first gang list to find, that is, Salt Gang..

Salt Gang is the largest gang in the area, with more than 20000 people..

When Liu Hai 1 left, he had already arrived at the gate of the headquarters of Salt Gang. He saw high-rise buildings with luxurious decoration..

After entering the door, there are resplendent decorations everywhere, much more luxurious than the Yamen..

Salt is the richest industry in the region..

Salt industry was originally run by the government, but here, it can be sold privately.

If Cheng Yaojin knew this 1 o'clock, he would be extremely happy. He was wanted by the government for selling illicit salt..

Because the prefect yamen has no money, they can only release the management rights of various industries to obtain a fixed profit and let the common people do it themselves..

Seeing Liu Hai 1 enter, everyone in the Salt Industry Association was shocked!

What does bangs look like?

A very strange bald, pot-bellied, pudgy young man..

The bangs are not completely bald either. There is a lock of hair on the top of the head and two hair buns on both sides..

It looks like a child's dress..

But he has that face, and it's a round, 18-year-old..

It's cold. Wear only one shirt..

He had a ring of copper coins hanging from his chest..

Dumpy, barefoot in the cold!

Such people are like beggars but not beggars, like madmen but not madmen.

There was a man in the room who came over and pushed his bangs and said:

"Who are you? Why are you here?"

"My name is Liu Hai. I am Master Ma's disciple. I have come to inform your leader to attend a meeting at the Yamen. He must arrive at 9:00 this morning..

Otherwise, you'll face the consequences..

"Oh, oh, so that's how it is!

I know, a new magistrate has arrived.

But our leader isn't here...

Wait a minute..

The burly man immediately ran to the back room to report.

Then a belly bigger than bangs, full cheeks and beard, came out..

Liu Hai looked at the gang leader like that, like killing pigs, with chest hair exposed..

Liu Hai said:

"Your name is Hu Han3, right?

9:00 this morning, please go to the headquarters of the government office in Fucheng for a meeting. I'm here to inform you.

Who knew that Hu Han3 spat and said disdainfully,

"Who are you? You beggar, you actually came to our headquarters?

Arrest him immediately and give him 100 strokes first!"
