Chapter 138 Changing the Military Status, the First Step to Becoming a Superior Person

County magistrate Du Yuntong lowered his eyes and said, "These are all things you bought from Boss Wang's family. What are you doing for me?"

Wang Sanbao pushed the tiger bone forward and said: "As Shen Shaoxia said, the county magistrate is the father and mother of Taiping County. Every plant and tree here depends on your kindness. I want to thank the people of Taiping County. How can you, my lord, take it all to yourself?"

Li Heqing on the side also saw the situation and took the tiger skin to the county magistrate Du Yuntong. He smiled and said: "Yes, I think so too. I hope you won't refuse."

After several people declined, the county magistrate Du Yuntong "reluctantly" accepted the treasure from the demon tiger.

Shen Qing took in all this scene and understood in his heart.

It was exactly as he expected.

After going around like this, although it was a bit troublesome, Du Yuntong got the tiger demon treasure he wanted. The two bosses only spent a small price to close the relationship with the county government, and he got the benefit of silver. It can be said that Everyone is happy.

Not only that, Du Yuntong even gained a good reputation, which won the hearts of this new martial artist.

If Shen Qing was a stupid young man, he might have been so moved that he bowed to him.

These people in high positions are not only highly cultivated, but they also have a way of playing with people's hearts.

Shen Qing remained silent and looked at him calmly, looking as confused as a young man that I couldn't understand.

After several refusals, the county magistrate Du Yuntong reminded leisurely: "You two happen to be here, and I want to talk to you. In a few days, the Weiwu Division from the county town will come over to investigate the tiger demon and hunt down the Huang Tianjiao. The remnants of the incident. I heard that people from the Zhou family came with them to see their side property. "

"The Zhou family is a big family in the county. You do a lot of business with the county, so be careful these days."

Wang Sanbao and Li Heqing looked at each other in unison, a trace of joy flashed on their faces and said, "Thank you, Lord County, for your advice."

"It's all trivial matters." As he spoke, County Magistrate Du Yuntong glanced at Shen Qing, looked at Wang Yanjun and said, "Did I say before that the person who has made the greatest contribution to killing the tiger demon will be given military status?"

"Your Excellency, this is what happened." Wang Yanjun said.

County Magistrate Du Yuntong nodded and said: "If you say anything, you will throw water away. As a county official, I can't break my word. I should fulfill my previous promises."

With that said, County Magistrate Du Yuntong turned around and motioned to the maid behind him.

The followers immediately stepped forward and presented the items that had been prepared one by one.

A yellowed certificate of birth, and heavy amounts of silver promised by two owners.

"Shen Shaoxia, these are yours." County Magistrate Du Yuntong handed the certificate of birth certificate to Shen Qing, his tone full of sincerity.

Shen Qing took the birth certificate and opened it. It clearly stated that his birthplace and identity were military.

For a moment, Shen Qing was filled with emotion.

The people of the Zhou Dynasty were divided into three, six or nine grades.

Emperor, noble, official, medical, military, farmer, worker, craftsman, slave.

Orions are landless and lowly households. Although they are farmers, they are still looked down upon.

According to the customary regulations among the people of the Zhou Dynasty, they were not qualified to purchase land, were not allowed to marry other property owners, were not allowed to enter the court and serve as officials, and they had no way of becoming servants.

Today, if you change your military status, you will be promoted to a higher status. You will completely get rid of the lowly family. It will be completely different from now on.

Don't underestimate this small position of advancement. No matter how many people squeeze their heads, you may not be able to achieve it.

Changing his military status means that he can no longer stick to one place, and he can go all over the Zhou Dynasty.

Not only that, after becoming a military official, you also have the opportunity to enter the imperial court and find an official position.

To put it bluntly, this is the first step to becoming a master.

Many people practice martial arts for this reason.

Without this opportunity, it would have been extremely difficult for him to obtain military status.

Not to mention how much money it will cost, just clearing the road will probably take a year and a half.

After the relationship between superiors and subordinates is smoothed out, it will be recommended to take the martial arts examination, and one out of ten will be selected.

This process will cost countless money, and it will take three to five years to do it without even thinking about it.

Now that he got it without much effort, it really made him feel a lot more comfortable.

"Thank you, Lord Magistrate! Shen will cherish these rewards as much as his life and will live up to your expectations!" Shen Qing put away the certificate in his hand and said gratefully.

County Magistrate Du Yuntong smiled and nodded, and praised again: "Shen Shaoxia is young and promising, and will definitely have a bright future in the future. I hope that you can make greater contributions to the county in the future."

"Definitely." Shen Qing said with a smile on his face.

Now that he has obtained his military status, it depends on his mood as to whether he wants to contribute to the county or not.

The next moment, Shen Qing had already forgotten Du Yuntong's words.

County Magistrate Du Yuntong suddenly said: "By the way, Shen Shaoxia is not married yet, right?"

"Not yet married." Shen Qing said calmly.

County Magistrate Du Yuntong said with a smile: "I remember Bantou Wang is also single. Why don't you two get together as a couple? I think it will be suitable. You two are a perfect match."

Wang Yanjun on the side glanced at the county magistrate Du Yuntong and remained silent.

Shen Qing suddenly became alert and said resolutely: "Your Excellency, I am still young and have no idea of ​​starting a family, and marriage is nothing but a piece of cake. I am just a boy with a flat head, how can I stand up to Bantou Wang?"

"Haha, that makes some sense. The main thing is that you are not familiar with each other. If you get along for a long time, you will fall in love with each other." County Magistrate Du Yuntong said: "It's a pity that there is no vacant position in the government office for the time being, otherwise, you can get along well."

"..." Shen Qing felt that County Magistrate Du Yuntong had something to say, and he wanted to hang him. He continued: "It's my bad luck, don't blame the county magistrate."

"Let's have a drink." County Magistrate Du Yuntong casually changed the subject.

Half an hour later, the banquet was over.

Shen Qing didn't know how to ride a horse yet, so he tied the horse to the back of the carriage for the time being, and Ah Fu drove the carriage and took them back together.

After everyone left, a policeman trotted in and whispered a few words in Du Yuntong's ear. Du Yuntong's face changed slightly, but soon calmed down.

Wang Yanjun on the side said: "County magistrate, what's wrong?"

"The leader of the Mi Gang is dead, Shen Qing killed him." Du Yuntong wiped his hands with a silk handkerchief and said casually.

Wang Yanjun frowned and said, "Then your subordinate... has lost an arm?"

"It's okay, it's just a dog." Du Yuntong said lightly, "There are so many people in Taiping County who are trying their best to get into the upper class. I never lack people to work, so I can use one or two."

"If the rice gang doesn't work, then change to someone else."

"What do you think of Shen Qing? Can I use him?"

"He's just a kid who just came out of Maotai. Today, your various methods must have convinced him."

Du Yuntong nodded and said, "It's a pity that he didn't take the bait in the last try, otherwise he would have worked hard for me to marry you."

Wang Yanjun lowered her head and said nothing.

"That's it for now. Next, prepare to deal with the Weiwu Division in the county city."

Du Yuntong threw away the silk handkerchief and turned to leave the main hall.

Wang Yanjun lowered her head and watched him leave.
