After leaving the house, Gu Song ran towards the village entrance and then plunged into the woods.

After walking through the woods for a while, I finally came to a bush.

The four horses, three dogs, and four others were squatting behind the bushes, staring into the distance.

I saw a government official looking furtively on the loess path ahead.

I wanted to see clearly what was going on in Xiaowang Village, but I didn’t have the guts to get close.

Seeing him coming back, the monkey immediately asked: "What did Brother Han say?"

Gu Song answered truthfully: "Second Brother Han said he wanted to see him."

For a moment, the four people had different expressions.

Although he was a little puzzled, Ma Sangou still ordered: "Xiao Chong and Monkey should follow me. You two stay here. If there is an ambush, go back and inform Brother Han immediately."

After that, he stood up and walked forward.

There are only about ten yamen servants in the county government, and they all know each other, and some of them are very close to each other.

After getting closer, Ma Sangou finally saw each other clearly.

"Zhou Tian!"

This person was the one who went to Xiaodong Village to inform Han Zhen.

I used to play with them all the time and we were quite close.

When Zhou Tian heard someone calling him, he looked startled and turned around to run away. He stopped when he saw clearly that the person coming was Ma Sangou.

Zhou Tian was as timid as ever. He was patting his heart and complaining: "I thought I had hit a strong beam. I was scared to death."

"Why are you here?"

Ma Sangou asked, while glancing behind Zhou Tian.

After searching carefully to make sure there was no ambush, the hand holding the knife couldn't help but loosen.

"The county magistrate sent me to Xiaowang Village to investigate." Zhou Tian replied, and then he was surprised: "Didn't you go up the mountain? Why are you here?"

"It's a long story."

Ma Sangou waved his hand, and then said seriously: "Second Brother Han wants to see you, just follow me into the village."

Zhou Tian hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement.

A group of six people walked into the village along the loess path, attracting the attention of many villagers along the way.

Just because Zhou Tian was wearing a light green short shirt, a cross-legged turban on his head, and a fire stick in his hand, the standard attire of a government official.

An official came to the village?

The villagers were shocked at first, but when they saw the official chatting and laughing with Ma Sangou and the others, they were stunned.

After regaining consciousness, the villagers gathered together in twos and threes and whispered.

"Is this a tolerance?"

"I went to the county seat last month and saw him at the east gate."

"Since we are on official business, why...why are we still joking with a few young gentlemen?"

"I don't know either."

"Hey! What do you know? I heard from the village chief that Xiao Langjun made a big fuss in the county town a few days ago. He killed Chief Xu and scared many people out of fear. Who dare to arrest those official officials?

Xiaolangjun."

"Why are you causing so much trouble in the county? Please tell me quickly..."

…

…

All the way into the house, Ma Sangou led him straight to the backyard.

Standing in front of the study door, he shouted toward the inside: "Brother Han, we've brought him here."

"Come in."

Hearing this, Ma Sangou opened the door and walked into the study.

Seeing that the person coming was Zhou Tian, ​​several thoughts flashed through Han Zhen's mind.

Because Zhou Tian took the risk to Xiaowang Village to report the news a few days ago, Han Zhen wanted to accept his favor.

The county government, which has more than ten officials, sent him as a person on duty at the city gate. The profound meaning of this is worth pondering.

"Zhou Tian, ​​sit down."

After asking Zhou Tian to sit down, Han Zhen asked Fang Sansan to make tea.

Looking at the innocent Fang Sansan, and then at the exquisite tea cup in front of him, Zhou Tian said with envy on his face: "Han Er, you are now living like a master."

Han Zhen smiled and joked: "If you want to join the gang, you are the one."

"Don't be ridiculous."

Zhou Tian's expression changed and he waved his hands repeatedly.

He suppressed his smile and said seriously: "Did Changzhi County ask you to come?"

Zhou Tian took a sip of the hot tea and replied: "Yes, if you hadn't come, I would have thought you had gone up the mountain."

Han Zhen asked: "How is Liu Dutou?"

Speaking of this, Zhou Tian suddenly became energetic and said with joy: "Liu Dutou has become very powerful recently. Now he is in charge of the third squad, the yamen servants, and the archers. I also heard that Changzhi County is planning to recommend Liu Dutou as the leader.

Where’s the book?”

With his guidance, Liu Yong's current treatment is normal.

It's just that you can just listen to it and not take it seriously.

Drawing cakes is a basic skill of leadership.

"correct."

Zhou Tian seemed to have remembered something, and said with a serious look: "Changzhi County has ordered the recruitment of local warriors today to increase the number of archers. I don't know what to do, but you should be careful."

Recruiting local heroes?

Han Zhen couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

The county magistrate had a lot of tricks up his sleeve. On the one hand, he expressed his goodwill and asked Zhou Tian to come to Xiaowang Village, and on the other hand, through Zhou Tian's mouth, he warned him about the recruitment of local warriors.

It’s really a combination of soft and hard tactics.

Dong Dong Dong~

Han Zhen tapped his fingers lightly on the desk, his brain running rapidly.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up.

At this moment, Zhou Tian said: "Han Er, if the county magistrate asks about you after you go back, I will tell you that you are not in Xiaowang Village."

"No need."

Han Zhen waved his hand and chuckled, "Just tell the truth."

As he spoke, he took out two exquisite wooden boxes and handed them over: "This is my gift to Changzhi County. You take the gift and go back and tell him that I have a business that I want to do with him."

He now needs time to develop Xiaowang Village and a business partner.

Changzhi County is undoubtedly a suitable candidate.

Once the two of them cooperate, both problems will be easily solved, killing two birds with one stone.

As for whether Changzhi County would agree to do business with a bandit...

Han Zhen can be 100% sure that he will definitely agree.

As the saying goes, making money is not shabby.

Zhou Tian only said that he wanted to bribe Changzhi County, but then he thought about it, even if it was a bribe, how much money could two small wooden boxes hold?

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but frown and said: "Is this... possible?"

"You just leave it to Changzhi County."

Han Zhen smiled slightly mysteriously and did not explain.

Zhou Tian was confused, but he still put the wooden box into his arms: "Han Er, I'm going back then."

Han Zhen smiled and said: "Okay, I won't keep you this time. Next time I'll invite Liu Dutou to have a drink with me!"

The government servants drank with the bandits.

Thinking of this, Zhou Tian couldn't help but feel a strange feeling in his heart.

After sending Zhou Tian away, the chief came not long after.
