I have been a county magistrate for ten years. My subordinates insist on giving me a yellow robe.

"Don't worry, sir."

Wang Gang said this and rushed forward with full speed.

Chen Liu followed closely behind with a long knife in his hand and a sinister grin on his face.

The two sides immediately engaged in battle. What surprised Jiang Yuan was that the village chief was actually quite powerful and could actually hold on for a while under the attack of Wang Gang and Chen Liu.

Well, it's just the literal meaning, just to support it for a moment.

Chen Liu is a fifth-level expert, and although Wang Gang is only at the fourth level, their actual combat power is definitely not bad. Even if facing experts of the same level, these two can defeat them quickly.

"Hey, Lao Deng, do you have any strength?" Chen Liu put the hatchet on the man's neck and said sarcastically.

The man blinked and said quickly, "Brothers, I mistakenly came to your stronghold and got into trouble. Can I leave now?"

"What do you think?" Jiang Yuan sat in the main seat with an air of confidence, picked up a cup and wiped it with his sleeve.

The man was a little embarrassed for a moment, and after a while he calmed down and said, "Then, sir, what do you think I should do?"

Snapped!

Jiang Yuan slammed the table, and when he raised his head again, his face was full of ferociousness.

"Where's the two hundred taels of silver you borrowed from me two days ago?"

The man immediately groaned inwardly, didn’t you just force it on me?

"It's in my arms. I'll get it out for you right away."

This is the money we were planning to use to go down the mountain and play in a few days. Now, it’s not certain whether we can get down the mountain alive.

Taking the banknote back into his hand, Jiang Yuan still had a vicious look on his face.

"Isn't this enough for you?"

"This, these two hundred taels of silver notes are not a small amount at all, how can it not be enough? How about you take a closer look, sir?" The man was anxious and spoke quickly.

"Huh?" Jiang Yuan glared. "Nonsense! These are clearly two ten-liang silver notes!"

The man bowed his head helplessly: "Yes, yes, sir, you are right, this is only twenty taels."

"Damn it!" Jiang Yuan slapped him directly.

"You know it's twenty taels, why don't you pay me now?"

The man took out a few more banknotes from his pocket with a painful look on his face: "Sir, this is all I have."

Jiang Yuan took the banknote in a pretentious manner, and immediately looked disgusted.

They were all small-denomination silver notes of fifty or one hundred yuan.

"The total is only two hundred taels, what else is there?" Jiang Yuan looked at the man with a squint.

The man stretched his neck in frustration and said, "Sir, isn't this two hundred taels enough? I don't have any more."

"What do you mean by enough? Have you forgotten that when you borrowed the money, you went in nine times and returned thirteen times, and then you did it once every other night? According to this, you still owe me one thousand taels!"

"Sir, your calculation is not right!" The man stared at Jiang Yuan angrily with wide eyes.

Jiang Yuan's face darkened. He picked up the man's spear from the ground and pressed it against his neck. "Isn't that right?"

Feeling the coldness on his neck, the man immediately shrank: "Yes, yes, you are right, sir."

Jiang Yuan's expression relaxed and he slowly walked back to the table to pour himself a glass of water.

"Since you know I'm right, why don't you give me the money quickly?"

"It's really gone!" the man shouted.

Jiang Yuan glanced around calmly and said doubtfully, "Stop talking nonsense to me. You're still eight hundred taels short. If you're even one tael short, I'll kill you!"

The man looked up at Jiang Yuan with a pale face and said, "Just kill me. I have no money left."

"Even if you're a bandit, you can't just grab one person!"

"I don't care. Anyway, if I don't see the money today, I will kill you." Jiang Yuan said casually.

The man was silent for a long time, then straightened his neck and said through gritted teeth, "Well, just kill me!"

"Wait!" Chen Liu waved his hand and spoke lightly to the man.

"I think you have some skills. How about you follow me from now on?"

The man's throat moved a few times, and he spoke tremblingly: "What do you do? What errand should I follow you for?"

After all, he is the king of the mountain. If he follows Chen Liu and becomes a guard dog for others, he might as well die.

Chen Liu smacked his lips a few times before speaking, "I won't waste any more time talking nonsense. Follow me for only two reasons."

"First, kill people."

The man swallowed and looked at Chen Liu warily: "What about the other one?"

"Kill people after collecting information." Chen Liu said lightly.

The man's neck shrank suddenly: "I can't do it, you find someone else."

"Hey! Damn it! You are so shameless!" Chen Liu's face turned cold.

If I didn't see that you have some strength, at least a fourth-level master, would I be so easy to talk to?

"Kill him, kill him!" Chen Liu shouted with a dark face.

"Hey! Wait a minute." Jiang Yuan hurriedly came up to stop Wang Gang and squinted at Chen Liu: "Old Wei, you've already won him over, so should I do the same?"

"No, why would you want to win over a bandit leader like him?" Chen Liu said unhappily.

"Nonsense, of course I hope there won't be any problems in the second half. Even if there are, there will be someone to block the knife." Jiang Yuan said in a low voice.

They are still a thousand miles away from the imperial capital. You never know when a group of killers will appear. If Wang Gang and Chenliu cannot defeat them, then they will be doomed.

Jiang Yuan then walked directly in front of the man and asked, "How about following me?"

"You? What do you do?" The man looked Jiang Yuan up and down.

Jiang Yuan immediately smiled: "Follow me, you don't have to fight and kill, you can just eat, drink and have fun, and I can even make you a proper official."

"Are you telling the truth?" The man screamed, broke free from Wang Gang's comfort, and looked at Jiang Yuan with shining eyes.

"Sir, I can still be an official? Are you kidding me?"

Jiang Yuan nodded with great satisfaction, otherwise Song Jiang would have to surrender in his previous life. It seems that it is so tempting for bandits to get into the organization.

"It's absolutely true." Jiang Yuan puffed out his chest and said confidently.

The man trembled all over and immediately patted his chest: "Okay! I will follow you from now on!"

Chen Liu standing aside opened his mouth in disbelief.

What the hell? Officials?

That damn Jiang Yuan guy would give you a position as a constable, which is as small as a sesame seed, and he would bribe you with it?

Do you know what kind of people are in my East Factory? To put it bluntly, even if Jiang Yuan, an eighth-rank county magistrate, committed a crime and deserved to die, he does not deserve to die at their hands!

"No, are you crazy?" Chen Liu couldn't help but ask.

The man squinted his eyes at Chen Liu and said, "What do you mean? I'm an official now, please be polite when you speak to me!"

Chen Liu couldn't help but feel a slight toothache. He pointed at Jiang Yuan and said, "He's just a county magistrate! An eighth-rank county magistrate!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the man's admiration for Jiang Yuan became more and more intense.

"So it's the master, how disrespectful!"

"Wait a minute!" Chen Liu raised one hand and covered his chest with the other.

"Do you know who I am?"

"My master is the first Chief Commander of the East Depot, and he entered the palace with his sword and boots. Do you understand?"

Looking at Chen Liu's murderous gaze, the man straightened his hair disapprovingly.

"Is he as great as the county magistrate?"

"Besides, haven't you ever heard a saying while traveling the world?"

"What?" Chen Liu asked conscious.

The man opened his mouth and blew out a breath, then said calmly: "The weirder the name, the faster you die!"
