Chapter 109 Are We Going to Sleep Here?

without peace.But Yang Lin couldn't do anything about it.He has no confidence in the laws of this world.Therefore, no matter what, you and your family must not fall into their hands!If it really comes...Yang Lin took out these two pieces of paper, which were the official documents appointing Zhao Fu貴 as the chief clerk of Jianghe County and Zhong Tao as the jailer of the Criminal Department.

Although the chief clerk and scribe are deputies to the county magistrate and county lieutenant, they are both officials with real power.

Most importantly, although the County Magistrate and the Assistant Magistrate are only of the eighth rank, they need to be personally appointed by the Prefect. The County Head has no authority to interfere.

Therefore, the highest official positions that can be given to two people today are only those of Master Recorder and Clerk.

This is something they never dared to dream of!

"From tomorrow onwards, you will stay at the government office. Third Uncle, you must study diligently the way of governing. After that, I will leave Jianghe County to you!"

"Brother Tao, you should also learn more about managing subordinates from Zhang Ping and strive to gain complete control of the power of these three squads of clerks as soon as possible! Remember, no matter what, a fist is always the hardest truth!"

Remember not to be greedy, there will be many opportunities to make money in the future, do not let yourself be blinded by wealth!

Yang Lin earnestly instructed the two.

Both nodded hurriedly.

"Another point is about safety. Things are unstable these days. We should keep half of the guards here, and integrate them into the yamen's staff. That way, you all can look out for each other."

When Yang Lin said he wanted to keep the bodyguard squad, the two of them panicked immediately.

Zhao Fuguang hurriedly spoke up: "How can this be done You're leaving the guard team with us, what will you do"

Zhong Tao also hurriedly nodded: "Yes, master! You are the most important! It's best to keep the bodyguard team by your side!"

Yang Lin smiled: "It's alright, with Zi Yi and Qing Yi, two elder sisters here, I don't have to worry about my safety. That's how it's decided."

After finishing his conversation with the two, Yang Lin called Zhang Ping over for a private talk.

"What is your command, my lord"

Yang Lin handed the document to Zhang Ping.

"From now on, you are the head of the execution chamber."

Zhang Ping took the document and was overjoyed upon reading it.

"Thank you for your cultivation, Lord Xie!"

He was so excited.

He never imagined he would end up as the jailer.

Yang Lin patted Zhang Ping on the shoulder and smiled, "I've already told Wu Zhixian, there won't be a new County Magistrate appointed for now, so you will temporarily take over as Acting County Magistrate."

And I have already informed County Magistrate Wu to recommend a candidate for the new position of county magistrate. If nothing unexpected happens, in less than half a year, you will be the new county magistrate!

Hearing these words, Zhang Ping was even more excited and immediately knelt down. He kowtowed to Yang Lin three times in a row.

"My Lord, Zhang Ping assures you that no matter what position I achieve in the future, I will always remain loyal to you!"

At this moment, the gratitude in his heart was genuine and heartfelt.

Originally, a person like him, who didn't associate with the family, would never have a bright future.

Not only did he get promoted overnight, but he also saw that position he had never even dared to dream of waiting for him.

Yang Lin smiled and helped the other person up, saying, "You don't need to be so polite. The new jailer I appointed, Zhong Tao, is a friend from my hometown. He's new here and doesn't know much about how things work. You can teach him the ropes."

"Yes!"

Zhang Ping's eyes lit up, and he nodded eagerly.

"Brothers, you've all worked hard these past two days. When Zhang Ge leaves later, go to the storeroom and get five hundred taels of silver to distribute among yourselves. Consider this a small token of my appreciation, and also a bit of support for Zhang Ge as he takes up his new post."

Zhang Ping became increasingly excited. After repeatedly declining, he quickly thanked them again.

After everyone else had left, Li Yuyao walked over with a frown. "Weren't you too generous to them Those yamen officers aren't all good people!"

Li Yuyue didn't have a good impression of the yamen servants. When she was mistaken for a commoner and taken away, it was the yamen servants who almost sold her to a brothel.

That was the shame of her life, a memory she would never forget!

Yang Lin sighed: "Of course I know that. Just in this county office, if you randomly grab someone and torture them severely, there's a good chance you could get them to confess to some wrongdoing."

"Those government officials, nine out of ten, have all done things to oppress the good."

Li Yuyao frowned: "Then why did you give them silver"

Yang Lin chuckled wryly: “Because I’m not a fairy!”

"We just managed to get control of the situation. Who knows how many pairs of eyes are watching us from the shadows, waiting for an opportunity We quelled the chaos with the city guards. If we now turn on them, what will be the outcome"

"It's definitely causing panic and fear among the people! Even rabbits will bite when they are cornered. If we were to confront them head-on now, expose their secrets, and push them to the limit, they would fight us to the death."

"In the end, the reason we're able to control the situation now is because we took them by surprise. We caught them off guard."

"If we allow them to unite because of our common enemy, and then fight us once more, do you think we would still have a chance of winning"

Li Yuxiang shook her head.

This is easy to understand. When Yang Lin reminded her like this, she immediately understood.

What people fear most is the loss of hope. If even hope disappears, who knows what they might do

Seeing Li Yuyao's enlightened expression, Yang Lin continued, "Therefore, the most important thing right now is stability! Stability will give us time to develop. When we become stronger ourselves, and when Zhao Fugui and Zhong Tao truly control the situation here, then..."

"We can settle accounts in the autumn. There's no rush!" Yang Lin said, squinting his eyes.

Li Yuxi nodded.

She admitted that Yang Lin's analysis was very reasonable.

Especially the phrase "autumn reckoning," she quite liked it.

"What now" Li Yuxiang asked.

"Right now Of course I'm going to sleep and get a good rest!"

Yang Lin grabbed Li Yuyao's hand and walked inside.

They had been working non-stop for two whole days and nights. Now that everything was taken care of, they were growing increasingly tired.

Suddenly, someone grabbed her hand. Li Yiyiao instinctively wanted to pull away.

But as soon as she thought about the person beside her being her own husband, she didn't dodge. She let Yang Lin pull her hand and walk into the room.

As she was about to step into the bedroom, Li Yuyao's heart pounded faster and faster.

"Are we sleeping here"

Li Yuyao stood at the door, not daring to go in, her expression somewhat resistant.

Even though they've been married for a while, they haven't had any physical intimacy yet. This is simply because there are too many people in their household, and Yang Lin hasn't had the opportunity.

And now, in this vast and empty inner courtyard, there were only the two of them.

A lone man and a lone woman, night was approaching, and they were about to be in the same room. If they slept together... what would happen She naturally knew.

Although she had told herself more than once that she would entrust her latter half of life to him, when the time came, Li Yuyao realized that she wasn't ready.

"Well, of course I'm going to sleep."

"What's wrong"

Yang Lin asked in confusion.

Just as he had finished asking, Yang Lin suddenly slapped his head and came to his senses!help but sigh.That's because they are simple and kind. If they were in a previous life, encountering this situation, it would be a miracle if their host could have survived!Who cares if you benefit th...
