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

"Holy crap!"

Jiang Yuan looked at the two of them with a dark face. It was so disgusting.

"Get out of here right now! Don't ruin my appetite tonight!"

After cursing and sending the two away, Jiang Yuan shook his sleeves and went home to rest.

Nothing happened that night. The next morning, Jiang Yuan did not sleep in. He got up early and went to the county government office.

After all, it’s the end of the year, and we still have to do a year-end summary.

When Jiang Yuan finished his work, it was already afternoon. Jiang Yuan grabbed a handful of melon seeds to kill time, and the whole afternoon passed in this relaxing and happy way.

"It feels so good. It would be great if it could be like this every day." Jiang Yuan stretched and went straight back to the room.

Jiang Yuan had just walked into the room when Wang Gang walked in right after him.

"Wang Gang, how is it? It's been two days, is there any progress?" Jiang Yuan half-lying on the chair leisurely.

Wang Gang shook his head a little embarrassedly: "No, sir."

"No? What about the other things? Did you tell me you wanted to marry her?" Jiang Yuan said lazily.

After scratching his head for a while, Wang Gang whispered, "Master, I dare not say."

"That's fucked!" Jiang Yuan slapped his forehead and said confidently, "Why are you so afraid of this? You have to tell them, understand?"

"If you don't tell me, how will Miss Zhang know why you always look for him? What if he thinks you are honest and reliable and directly gives you a good guy card and recognizes you as his brother? Then you will cry!"

"Do I have to say it..." Wang Gang said hesitantly.

Jiang Yuan sighed and patted Wang Gang on the shoulder. "There's no God's perspective in love. You have to express your love and grievances. Do you understand?"

Almost as soon as Jiang Yuan finished speaking, a voice with a hint of laughter sounded.

"Really?"

"Of course!" Jiang Yuan retorted subconsciously. About two or three seconds later, Jiang Yuan suddenly turned around and looked towards the door.

At the door, Bai Wei, dressed in a snow-white robe, was looking at him with a smile. Her three thousand black hair was mixed with snowflakes, making her look as noble and inviolable as a saint.

"You, why are you here?" Jiang Yuan asked stutteringly.

Tomorrow is New Year's Eve. Jiang Yuan didn't expect that Bai Wei would come to Taiping County.

"I came when I wanted to." Bai Wei said softly.

"Hey hey hey! I'm such a grown-up, can't you see me?" Bai Jingyun shouted in dissatisfaction.

Jiang Yuan rubbed his hands awkwardly. To be honest, he hadn't noticed it since he hadn't said anything.

"Since you two are here, come in and warm up." Jiang Yuan quickly took the package from Bai Jingyun's hand.

"Why is Taiping County so cold? It's at least 30% colder than the imperial capital." Bai Jingyun kept rubbing his cheeks with his hands.

Jiang Yuan handed him the hand warmer and draped his black robe over Bai Wei.

"Xiaoqing, bring me a pot of hot water."

Inviting them to sit down, Jiang Yuan exhaled, "It's almost Chinese New Year, why are you here so suddenly? Oh, is Uncle Bai here?"

"No, it's just the two of us and Guard Shen. He just went to find his master." Bai Jingyun said with a look of enjoyment while holding the hand warmer in both hands.

After everyone exchanged greetings, Jiang Yuan simply stopped Xiaoqing from cooking and took everyone to Taiping Restaurant for a meal.

After dinner, Jiang Yuan accompanied Bai Wei for a walk. Many people in the city had already set off firecrackers.

Jiang Yuan had no interest in this kind of game, after all, he had played it a lot as a child in his previous life.

On the other hand, Bai Wei and Bai Jingyun, who grew up in the imperial capital, had a lot of fun.

After the show, Jiang Yuan went straight back to his room to sleep.

The next morning, Jiang Yuan got up early, tidied up the room briefly, went into the house, and quietly lit three incense sticks in the incense burner.

"I wonder if my parents can receive this incense that transcends space and time."

Jiang Yuan muttered something and turned to walk into the courtyard. Bai Wei, Bai Jingyun and Xiao Qing were already up.

After Wang Gang lit a string of firecrackers, the group finished their meal and started strolling on the street.

Time passed unknowingly and it was night. Zhao Kai, Kong Xuan, Wang Jue, Li Hu, Ma Zhi, Chen Qing, Qin Tianzhu and others came to Jiang Yuan's house with smiles on their faces.

Those who had families also brought them with them, which made Jiang Yuan feel a little agitated.

After two lifetimes, it’s time for me to start a family.

Bai Wei, Gao Yan, Xiao Qing and Ming Yue gathered together, while Jiang Yuan and a dozen other men sat in the lobby, staring at each other.

"Sir, should we find something to do?" Zhao Kai said, crossing his legs.

"How about we have a snowball fight?" Kong Xuan suggested.

"You are too old to have a snowball fight. It's boring. How about we play dice?" Wang Yuan suggested.

Jiang Yuan immediately shook his head and rejected the idea: "No, it's not right. How can I let people lose money during Chinese New Year? Besides, everyone knows that I am an honest official and I have always been sworn enemies of drugs and gambling!"

"Let's go. We have nothing to do anyway, so let's go visit the homes of our old neighbors."

After saying that, Jiang Yuan stood up first.

By the time Jiang Yuan and his group gathered at Taiping Restaurant, it was already evening.

After dinner, Jiang Yuan watched the fireworks for a while. Time passed quietly and the New Year came quietly.

……

January after the New Year, Taiping County Government Office.

Jiang Yuan and Bai Wei stood facing each other. "I have to go out for a while. If you have anything to do, ask Xiaoqing to help you. If Xiaoqing can't do it, ask Bai Jingyun to find Ma Zhi."

"If that doesn't work, just go to my study and get my military token..."

"Okay, I got it. Go early and come back early." Bai Wei nodded slightly.

Bai Jingyun, who was standing by, couldn't bear to watch it anymore and rushed over to slap Jiang Yuan's hand away from Bai Wei.

"Brother, you've been talking for half an hour. How can I not know what you're thinking?"

"If you want to take advantage of me, at least wait until you're engaged!"

Jiang Yuan nodded with a lingering feeling: "Okay, let's go."

After saying that, Jiang Yuan waved his hand and called Wang Gang, Li Hu, Kong Xuan, Wang Yuan, and Qin Tianzhu.

Jiang Yuan from Taiping County only called these few people. After all, he was going out to do business and didn't need too many people.

There were quite a few people accompanying him, and there were seven or eight carriages, all of which were loaded with goods.

"No need to see me off, we're leaving!"

Jiang Yuan waved to the people behind him.

"Sir, it was a wise move for you to choose to bring me instead of Zhao Kai this time!" Kong Xuan said excitedly with his mouth wide open.

This was the first time Jiang Yuan took Kong Xuan out since he followed Jiang Yuan. Kong Xuan jumped up and down with joy, like a Husky that had been let out.

After the carriage left Taiping County and they were once again on the mountain road, Li Hu looked at Jiang Yuan excitedly, "Sir, where are we going this time? Xinri City or Luoyun City?"

"Neither. This time we are going to Caiyun City, the capital of Yunzhou." Jiang Yuan said slowly.

Li Hu was stunned and asked in confusion: "Sir, why is this?"

"I remember you've been to Xinri City and Luoyun City, haven't you? We have connections there. If we do business there this time, it will definitely be twice as effective with half the effort."

Jiang Yuan nodded calmly: "That's right. No matter which of these two cities it is, we can feel more relaxed if we go there."

"Then why don't you go?" Li Hu became more and more confused.

Is this feeling about forcing yourself to make things difficult?

Jiang Yuan curled his lips and sighed, "The key is that there are only so many rich people in the two cities. We have already harvested all the other commodities. If we continue to produce other products, people will not have the purchasing power!"

"It's like when you go to plunder sheep, you can't just plunder sheep from one place, right?"

"You have to give them some time to let their hair grow out!"
