() Did Qin Xiaobai get promoted fast enough? Fast enough. In just one month, he rose from a mere second-rate military officer in a large village, still a temporary officer, to Du Bo, the top military officer in a large county.
Or du li.
But Qin Xiaobai still felt that it was not fast enough. He wanted to go faster. The faster the better, so that he could command more regular troops with higher quality and the stronger his own power would be.
According to the formal channels, unless Qin Xiaobai can eliminate the Black Wind Bandits in one fell swoop, otherwise, it will probably be difficult for him to be promoted again. After all, he is already in the higher position of Dubo.
But now Village Chief Qian's words shocked Qin Xiaobai. Buying an official is such a tempting word. After all, Qin Xiaobai is an undercover agent. He has no channels in the officialdom. If he can get through Village Chief Qian,
By building a bridge, you can't say how many levels you will be promoted to...
Although Qin Xiaobai has always felt that he is short of money, even though he is now worth over ten million, he still is...
But compared to getting promoted, a small sum of money is nothing to mention. This is the most convenient way to quickly convert money into strength. As long as the price is not too outrageous, Qin Xiaobai can still get it with gritted teeth.
…
Village Chief Qian looked at Qin Xiaobai with a yearning look on his face. He immediately shook his beard and said mockingly: "Not everyone can buy that official position. You have to have the qualifications."
Village Chief Qian thinks that Qin Xiaobai betrayed Novice Village and is no longer a rogue. The official position can only be bought at the lowest level of the town. Others cannot buy it even if they are rich. However, he does not know that Qin Xiaobai's official position is now
It is already at the county level.
Qin Xiaobai ignored Village Chief Qian's ridicule, and did not use his status as an uncle to pressure Village Chief Qian. He only noticed a key point in Village Chief Qian's words, so he quickly asked: "Is there only one official position?
What official position is it?"
"Of course there's only one. That's because the position is vacant. Otherwise, do you think you can squeeze out your boss if you have money?" Village Chief Qian was so infuriated by Qin Xiaobai that he was filled with anger and aura of ridicule.
However, the second question made Village Chief Qian hesitate for a while. Then he thought that he and Qin Xiaobai had already talked to this point. Besides, the position was hardly his, so there was no harm in being exposed, so he groaned:
"He is the chief registrar of Zuli County. The previous chief registrar died during the war, and this position became vacant. Although Zuli is still in the war, Wuwei County's 100,000 troops now have the absolute upper hand. Sooner or later, they will be able to defeat Baima.
The Qiang people were wiped out. Although Zu Li's vitality has been damaged by the war, it is a large county town and its foundation is still there. It can be restored with a few adjustments."
"At that time, the official position would be the head of the civil servants in the county, and one hundred thousand gold coins would be hard to find. But now it only sells for five thousand gold coins. This is really a God-given opportunity. It's a pity, it's a pity that my money has been cheated, otherwise
With my talent, I can rise to the top from now on..."
Qin Xiaobai turned a deaf ear to Village Chief Qian's last words, but was slightly startled when he heard the official position. The chief registrar of a large county sounded quite majestic, but unfortunately it was a civilian position and did not have military power. Moreover, he was an undercover agent.
Getting an official position is bound to be extremely troublesome.
If it was a military position or something, he would still work hard, but if it was a civilian position, it would be useless. Regardless of what kind of political convenience being a county registrar would bring to him, it would be useless to buy it.
This civilian position would require him to give up his military position, so Qin Xiaobai would not buy it.
After all, he is the capital uncle of a county's military officers, and if he buys the chief clerk's position of a county's civil servants, wouldn't that mean he is directly deposing the county magistrate? Unless he resigns as the capital clerk, others will not allow him to buy the position of chief clerk.
However, Qin Xiaobai didn't buy it, which didn't mean that he couldn't buy it for others. Normally, he wouldn't take it seriously when he was the chief bookkeeper, but that was the chief bookkeeper of Zuli County. Not long after, Heifeng Mountain sent troops to rescue Baima.
The battlefield between the Qiang people and the soldiers of Wuwei County.
If you can place a chief clerk in advance, you don't know how much intelligence benefits you can get, and even life safety. After all, the only information obtained from the official is Niu Fu's family. Niu Fu simply wants to trick him.
There was no discussion. Although there was Hu Chi'er, that guy was not reliable.
Moreover, after all, Village Chief Qian is a member of the Wuwei County bureaucracy, unlike Niu Fu, who is a semi-migrant. Moreover, he is directly an important official on the front line of the battlefield. The intelligence he collects is much more accurate and faster than Niu Fu.
If Village Chief Qian can be inserted, it will be equivalent to having an extra life-saving amulet.
After thinking about it, Qin Xiaobai saw the frustrated look of Village Chief Qian, smiled slightly and said: "Village Chief Qian, I will not return the money to you because I am a bandit. But as a responsible person
If you are a man who has a strong heart, dares to take responsibility, and respects the elderly and cares for the young, I can consider lending you money to help you buy an official position."
"What?" Village Chief Qian, who is less than five feet tall, jumped half a foot high after hearing this. His expression of resentment and depression suddenly became extremely exciting. He didn't expect Qin Xiaobai to pay back the money.
, but Qin Xiaobai will lend him money anyway,
Isn't this unnecessary, but he was eager to ask for an official, so he hurriedly said: "How much can you lend me."
"How much do you lack?" Qin Xiaobai continued to smile, so harmless and sunny...
However, this smile was extremely deceitful in the eyes of Village Chief Qian, and he immediately asked cautiously: "How much is the interest?"
"The interest rate is 10% per day." Qin Xiaobai said calmly.
"You are a loan shark." Village Chief Qian jumped to his feet again...
"Well, it's loan sharking." Qin Xiaobai nodded.
"You..." Village Chief Qian then remembered that Qin Xiaobai had just admitted that he was a bandit, and he suddenly became speechless. Borrowing money from bandits was not a loan shark, but something like usury.
Qin Xiaobai saw that Village Chief Qian was silent and had an uncertain expression on his face. Knowing that he was still hesitating, Qin Xiaobai chuckled and said: "The head of a county civil servant has skyrocketed to the top since then, and he has shown his talents to the fullest..."
"Lend me five thousand taels of gold." Sure enough, after hearing this, Village Chief Qian immediately lost control and surrendered, but then said: "But I will never be able to pay back such a huge interest. There is no way I can pay it back."
Your whole life's money, you make other conditions."
Qin Xiaobai was waiting for Village Chief Qian's words, so he smiled and said: "When Village Chief Qian signs and pledges money, he not only borrows money, but also describes the background of why he borrows money."
After village chief Qian heard this, he suddenly changed his mind. What was the background? Borrowing money to buy an official position was the background. At this time, the world was not in chaos. Lingdi du did not dare to sell his official position blatantly, and he still sold such a position of real power. Once people
If he is exposed, or if he is exposed by a bandit, and he borrows money from the bandit to buy a powerful official position, he will definitely be dismissed from his position in an instant, and he will be despised and infamy in the area under his jurisdiction for a hundred years...
Qin Xiaobai did this simply because he wanted to seize his lifeline. How could he not make Village Chief Qian shocked and angry...
"Mr. Qian, please rest assured. Mr. Qin can swear and even write a letter as proof. As long as Mr. Qian does not betray me, I will never make this agreement public to the world. If necessary, we will deal with each other on an equal footing.
I will never threaten Mr. Qian unilaterally." Village Chief Qian's change was unexpected by Qin Xiaobai, so he quickly made an impassioned appearance.
Village Chief Qian was relieved after hearing this. It turned out that Qin Xiaobai was seeking protection from Bai Dao. Of course, Village Chief Qian would not listen to Qin Xiaobai's words and really thought he was completely safe, so he signed a letter.
Proof is indispensable. Although bandits and bandits robbed homes, they wanted to save face. If this matter was revealed, both sides would be harmed and the place would be stink for a hundred years.
As long as Qin Xiaobai doesn't stab Village Chief Qian first, Village Chief Qian won't stab him. He still has the initiative, and even if Village Chief Qian stabs him, the actual damage caused to him will not be much. He is not easy to show off.
, Fame, prestige, etc. can also be compensated, so he was not afraid of setting up written documents or anything like that. He asked the county soldiers to bring pen and ink, and it was set up in an instant.
Qin Xiaobai exchanged notes with Village Chief Qian, and then ordered someone to give Village Chief Qian 5,000 taels of gold. After shaking hands in a friendly and harmonious manner, the two took what they needed, and then both hid aside and laughed without knowing it.
