Chapter 585: The sensible Jiang Fan (seeking a bank note)
Early the next morning, Jiang Fan came to another world.
Then in the wing room, I found the official robe that I had never worn before and put it on.
Although he was temporarily acting as city guard, his official robe was still that of a city lieutenant.
Because the city guard robe that should have belonged to him suddenly became useless as the Emperor of Zhou was placed under house arrest.
"Master, why are you suddenly wearing official uniform... It seems... you are not used to it."
Tieniu looked at Jiang Fan who came out of the wing. He was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help but speak.
"You have to show your respect. Today, I have to cooperate with the people of the Liu family to transfer the governance of Heyang City. I am wearing an official robe to show respect for this."
Jiang Fan said casually.
"Your way of respecting people is really special..."
Tieniu muttered.
"Have you made everything clear to the street patrol officers?"
Jiang Fan ignored Tieniu and asked another question.
"I have made it clear that our clan members will temporarily step down from their duties as police officers and return to the clan. In fact, most of the street patrol officers are already our confidants, but we cannot tell the truth to them yet.
I can use the reasons you gave me to deal with it."
Tieniu said.
"Well, that's enough. We won't set up any obstacles or block anything, and we will never cause any trouble to the Liu family. Only then will the Liu family confirm that we are afraid of them.
"
Jiang Fan nodded and said.
After taking Tieniu out of the house, and on the way to the government office, one could already see sporadic soldiers in military uniforms wandering on the street.
Five thousand people are stationed in Heyang City, all arranged in the barracks inside the city gate. It is impossible to require these soldiers to stay in the barracks except for garrisoning the city.
Except for the soldiers who are on duty every day, the rest of the soldiers are free to move around during non-drill time.
As for the drill... Based on the quality displayed by the soldiers that Jiang Fan saw yesterday, Jiang Fan doubted whether their drill was equivalent to an annual festival.
Therefore, these soldiers are destined to spend a lot of time wandering around Heyang City.
And as long as you wander around, you will definitely conflict with the people of Heyang!
Because the current Heyang is fundamentally different from other cities in the Zhou Dynasty!
Jiang Fan didn't know much about the specific virtues of soldiers in this world, but he could roughly guess it.
Basically, it is absolutely not an exaggeration to say that they are soldiers.
Sure enough, after just a few glances, Jiang Fan discovered that the soldiers who were together had no intention of paying after taking fruits from a vendor.
Naturally, the vendors were not willing to let the soldiers leave just like that. After a quarrel, the soldiers punched and kicked the vendors unceremoniously, attracting the attention of other nearby vendors and pedestrians.
For a time, there were many onlookers, and some people stepped forward to pull the soldiers.
But those soldiers were obviously used to it, and they actually pulled out their sabers and waved them at the civilians who came up to pull them.
In just a few breaths, several people were stabbed and injured on the spot.
The injuries varied in severity, and the onlookers were frightened and backed away. Apart from shouting accusations, they did not dare to continue to step forward to seek justice.
The soldiers couldn't help laughing, shouting that they and others were protecting the safety of Heyang City, what's wrong with eating some fruit? How dare you ask them for money? It's simply ungrateful.
Even when they are stationed in the county, they have no habit of paying bills when they go out!
If you want money, you can go to the military camp and ask for it from their superior officer.
After saying these harsh words, a few soldiers walked away in a swaggering manner, leaving only the aggrieved Heyang people.
Tieniu looked angry and instinctively wanted to step forward and catch those soldiers.
But before he could take a step, Jiang Fan reached out to stop him.
"Don't go, these things will only get worse. This is the second day after they arrived in Heyang. The customs developed in the place before them have not yet fully exploded. We will let them do whatever they want now.
Instead of immediately conflicting with them."
Jiang Fan said.
Tieniu couldn't help but fell into silence, and after a while, he nodded and said: "I understand, young master, but I was really angry when I saw you just now. People don't know how much hardship they have to endure during these days."
"Let them suffer now so that they don't have to suffer more in the future. Although we are not noble saints, we can at least achieve our goals and make as many people as possible live a better life. But at all
There is no doubt that in any era of development, someone will have to sacrifice. This is unfair, because no one wants to be a victim. But the fact is that we must do this. No matter how shameless we feel, we still have to bear such a sin."
Jiang Fan said expressionlessly.
He never glanced at those people again.
Tieniu was shocked when he heard this. Looking at Jiang Fan's back, he suddenly seemed to understand something.
The expression on his face suddenly became solemn, and he hurriedly followed.
The two quickly arrived at the government office and saw that the officials who originally belonged to Heyang City had begun to explain government affairs one-on-one to the officials sent by the Liu family. Jiang Fan's face immediately showed warmth.
A smile like the spring breeze.
Liu Ziyu was also standing beside these officials, and her whole attitude seemed quite friendly.
And I don't know if it's an illusion, but Jiang Fan always feels that there seems to be some changes in Liu Ziyu today compared to yesterday.
As for what the change was, I couldn't tell for the moment.
It seems...it seems a little more mature?
"Jiang Chengshou is here. He looks really energetic in this official robe. Let's go. I happen to have some questions. I want to ask Jiang Chengshou. I hope Jiang Chengshou will give me some advice."
Seeing Jiang Fan leading Tieniu in, a slightly exaggerated smile appeared on Liu Ziyu's face, and she spoke cheerfully.
Now Jiang Fan was sure that he was not delusional. Liu Ziyu... seemed to want to portray herself into another image?
Why?
There was a question mark in his mind, but there was no expression on his face. He raised his hands and said, "Young Master Liu, you're welcome. Please come in. I will tell you everything about Heyang."
The smile on Liu Ziyu's face became even stronger, and she followed Jiang Fan and quickly arrived at the office belonging to the city guard.
Jiang Fan asked Liu Ziyu to sit down for a while, while he went to the bookcase in the office, took out the seal belonging to the city guard, and handed it to Liu Ziyu.
He smiled and said: "Mr. Liu, this is the seal of the city guard. Any decree needs to be stamped to prove it. Now, I will hand him over to Mr. Liu."
Liu Ziyu was stunned for a moment, but then the rich smile on her face instantly bloomed.
Compared to just now, he is obviously much more sincere.
"Jiang Chengshou is so sensible, it really puts me to shame. Don't worry, my Liu family will not forget Jiang Chengshou."
Liu Ziyu applied the city guard's seal with a smile, feeling very satisfied with Jiang Fan's 'sensibleness'.
I thought that because Jiang Fan was so sensible, there would be no need to kill them all and save Jiang Fan's life...it didn't seem to be a big deal.
