Chapter 184: County Department Sima (Subscription Request)

"I've seen the county captain!" Lin Mu and Xiaohu bowed slightly when they saw the county captain Xu An coming in. They both know Xu An and have seen his portrait. He is a key figure. He is currently more important than the county magistrate Huang Yun.

"I didn't expect that the talented people who wiped out the five mountain bandits were so young. You two are really young and promising, with great talents." Xu An suppressed the shock in his heart and praised easily.

Xu An looked at the other twenty guards beside him. They were full of energy, resolute in expression, upright and steady. Judging from his years of military experience, these were fierce soldiers.

"He deserves such praise from the county captain. We have only been preparing for years to annihilate the bandits in Dong'an Mountain for the sake of revenge for our ancestors. As for the bandits in the remaining four mountains, they all just escaped upon hearing the news. With good luck, they were chased by us. Just get to the head of the thief."

"Thieves from the Five Mountains have been plaguing our Dongye County for many years. They have robbed villages and towns many times to cause harm to the township, harmed the people and taken their property, trampled on the law, and are cruel and cruel. This is a great harm. The county has suppressed the bandits many times, but they can't be found. Now You brave warriors wiped them out. Your merits are great and you have done harm to the people. I will report it to the county magistrate and write to the county to ask for credit for you!" Xu An also felt certain, since the disappearance of the Shen family and Dong'an were detected! He was related to bandits and gangsters. Now that they are all dead, he can be directly convicted and relieved of his worries, and he can also gain a good reputation, but he must be admitted to the county captain's camp. In this way, when the time comes, I will publicize it again, and Dongye County Weiying will be able to gain a good impression in the county. After I work behind the scenes, there will be no problem in being promoted to a small level.

"I wonder what your last name is as a warrior?" Xu An kept thinking in his mind, pretending that nothing was his business, as if he was a county lieutenant who was doing his duty faithfully.

"My surname is Lin, Lin Mu. This is my younger brother, Xiaohu. The following are our guests and heroes. We were able to kill the bandits in Dong'an Mountain this time, thanks to the heroic help of the villagers. Unfortunately, the family's savings have been exhausted over the years. Many A guest hero was also killed." Lin Mu tried his best to conceal the situation and also acted.

Lin Mu himself was ready to take the path of accumulating military merit in the early stage. This would have a huge effect on training soldiers, accumulating battle experience, promoting prestige, etc. However, Lin Mu was not interested in the officials in the county. These official positions were mostly Those who bury their heads in paperwork, run around, and scheming are very limited and have no freedom at all. Although the salary is more and you know more people, it is also helpful for accumulating contacts, but it is not suitable for you.

"Currently, Xiaguan Ai is the chief of Qingying Pavilion and the township inspector. However, I have just entered the officialdom. Wushan's meritorious service was done by chance to avenge my family. Therefore, how dare Xiaguan bypass the county captain and go directly to the county magistrate? How about accepting the reward and promotion shamelessly? Besides, it is because of the majesty of the county captain who has stood in the hearts of the bandits for many years. During the crusade, we benefited from the county captain’s promulgation of the mission, the county magistrate’s command, etc., how about it? Take the lead in this?"

When Xu An heard this, he nodded clearly, as if he knew what he was talking about. However, he kept observing Lin Mu's expression carefully, trying to study Lin Mu's personality through his expression. It's a pity that Lin Mu lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes, looking humble.

Lin Mu's positions as pavilion chief and other positions were actually bought. Now that he has achieved such meritorious service, he cannot bypass the county magistrate and county lieutenant. He can only give it to him. At the same time, if he is promoted just after becoming the pavilion chief, problems will arise. Even if you take all the credit on yourself, you will only be promoted to one level. It is impossible to reach the sky in one step and become a county captain and other high-level official positions. Now it is better to use your merit to paralyze them.

Xu An didn't see anything from the surface, so he stopped guessing and said bluntly: "What is the exchange for giving us the credit?" For the county magistrate and county lieutenant, the merits of the Five Mountains can also be transferred to us Even if their positions are moved, they will not forcefully take the credit, because Lin Mu is also an official. Although he is a minor official and not in the mainstream, he is still an official and a member of the circle.

It saves trouble to talk to smart people. Lin Mu did not hide it and said: "For this meritorious service to me, the most I can do is to upgrade to one level. It is not cost-effective, but for adults, it is of great use. However, the heroes in my hands suffered heavy casualties. I want to I want to cultivate my health, and at the same time, my ambition is to work for the village and build my village. However, there are many bandits in the Qilian Mountains. I want to continue to punish gangsters and eliminate evil, and continue to perform meritorious service for you, so I hope to serve as a free [County Department Sima]. 】.

The Sima of the other departments of the county (prefecture, county) is different from the real history. It is a special position in the Han Dynasty in the mythical world and belongs to the military department. However, there is no salary or military support for his position, and all the troops he leads rely on Sima himself. To put it bluntly, the soldiers' equipment, food and salary, etc. are all borne by the Sima of the other counties. Although they are relatively free, at certain times, even if they are the cannon fodder who takes the blame, they are still free.

Now the overall environment in the Han Dynasty is peaceful and peaceful, with only some bandits and cholera. Therefore, there are basically no aboriginals in this county's Sima Department. This position is still vacant in Dongye County. Even if there are players who know this profession, they cannot be filled casually.

When cholera broke out, this position was a reasonable military position for many white heroes to directly participate in the battle.

At present, this is a thankless position, but for Lin Mu, this position is the most suitable. Soldiers, equipment, food and salary, etc. are no problem for Lin Mu.

After Lin Mu finished speaking his request, he smiled and said nothing.

And Xu An thought about it in his heart: "I have been a county captain for many years, and Dongye County is peaceful and quiet. Except for the recent disaster of the Shen family, the county is like a calm lake. On the surface, there is no merit but hard work, and no promotion. That was still not enough, but now the merits of Wushan are enough for me and the county magistrate to be promoted. "

"This position can be obtained with your merit." It was not an important position anyway, so Xu An agreed.

"In addition, Lin Dong, the father of Qingyingtingting, who is from the lower official village, has been in the pavilion for many years. He has high moral character and respect, abides by his duties, and is diligent and diligent. I will relinquish the position of chief of Qingyingtingting to Lin Dong. I hope the county captain will take more care of him in front of the county magistrate. . "Lin Mu has upgraded the township, and the pavilion chief is dispensable. It is better to give him to Lin Dong and form a good relationship.

"Lin Sima is really a kind and humble gentleman. He not only gives credit to us, but also never forgets his feelings for his fellow countrymen." Lin Mu had already called him Sima before he took up his post as Sima of another county department. Xu An was in a very good mood. At the same time, he also wanted to recruit Lin Mu: "Lin Sima, let me tell you the truth. This time, the contribution of the Five Mountains is not only the contribution of annihilating the Five Mountains, but also the contribution of solving the annihilation of the Shen family. I will not hide it from you. This is the other Sima. If you continue to serve, as for the early soldiers, I can send 2,000 soldiers to your command in the County Lieutenant Camp to enrich your subordinates. In addition, you can take up a casual position in the County Lieutenant Camp and put your name on it, and I will help you when the time comes. When there is a reason, how about it?”

When Lin Mu heard Xu An's words, he immediately understood his plan. He just wanted to keep his reputation for suppressing bandits in the county captain's camp.

"Yes, but because I need to revitalize the family and need to wander around looking for clan members who are living abroad, I will not serve in the county. I hope the county captain can understand!" Lin Mu's character design for himself is to revitalize the family. A downtrodden boy.

"No problem! You are just like the Sima of other departments in the county. You don't need to participate in the management of chores." Xu An is even more willing. This way, there will be no one with a mysterious origin and powerful force to fight for power under his command. Anyway, what he needs is With reputation, when the time comes for promotion, you can recommend your own people to important positions.

Later, Lin Mu and the county lieutenant met with the county magistrate Huang Yun, and the three of them had a pleasant conversation.

Lin Mu, who had only been serving as pavilion chief and township inspector for less than a month, was officially promoted to county department Sima.

Lin Dong was recommended by Lin Mu and was promoted to pavilion chief. As for the county magistrate and county lieutenant, they can handle it themselves. Lin Mu didn't know.

In short, the genocide case of the Shen family, which caused heated discussions in Dongye County and the county, came to a perfect end thanks to the methods of Huang Yun and Xu An.

Lin Mu ignored this. Anyway, it didn't matter if he gave up this good reputation to them. Lin Mu had his own plan.

After Lin Mu handed in the task, the system prompts kept ringing. Lin Mu was talking to the county magistrate and captain and ignored him. Now Lin Mu looked back and saw eight prompts:

"——System prompts, player Lin Mu, you wiped out the bandits in Dong'an Mountain and completed the task of the county captain's camp. You will receive +100 points of merit and +1000 points of reputation."

"..."

"——The system prompts, player Lin Mu, you are stepping down as the head of Qingying Pavilion."

"——The system prompts, player Lin Mu, you are resigning from the post of township inspector."

"——The system prompts, player Lin Mu, you have been promoted to the position of [Sima of the County Department]."

The first two positions are only somewhat useful in exterminating bandits in the Five Mountains. Now that Lin Mu has obtained meritorious service, he will restrict Lin Mu's development, and other sima in this county will be able to use it.

The merit points are only 500 points, the other merit points should be received by Huang Yun and others. The reputation is not bad, much better than the reputation gained by establishing the village many months ago. But it's just that the reputation is better, and there are no other rewards at all. The items rewarded by the system are the big one, and reputation doesn't matter. What Lin Mu values ​​​​is also the items rewarded by the system.

After completing the Five Mountains mission, it's time to lurk and not keep a high profile.

After Lin Mu took care of this, he asked Xiaohu and the others to return to the territory secretly, and he came to the temporary base of the Night Shadow Department in the north of the city alone.

It's time to carry out the next phase of the mission. The relatives of the soldiers in Qinglong Town must be brought to Yinglong Valley before the Xu Zhao Rebellion.

Xu Ying and others rested in the station. After meeting Lin Mu, the two entered a room, had a secret conversation, and left one after another in the evening.

Lin Mu was preparing to go to Yingchuan County, but when he was rushing to the teleportation array, the pages of the book in his arms vibrated. When Lin Mu saw it, it turned out to be a letter from Xu Bao.
