Chapter 8743 Contact
Sixiang City.
The Sheriff's Mansion.
Gou Shi entered the hall. Mickey, who was working inside, raised her head and motioned for him to sit down.
"How is the situation with your brother?" Mickey said slowly.
Her fishing plan was to use the bait of Hook Shi's brother to lure those people to show up and take the bait.
"My brother Gou Baitong has already contacted them, but I can't see any clues now."
What happened after Gou Shi sent Gou Baitong to Dongguo House. Everything was told.
He couldn't figure out what was special about it.
Rong Dou, the chief steward of Dongguo Mansion, just asked Gou Baitong to sign a contract and gave him a job.
My job is to deliver letters, so there's nothing wrong with that.
"You can't tell the clues, it's normal."
"Because there is no problem at all."
Mickey picked up the tea cup and drank it gently He took a sip and cleared his throat.
"No problem?" This time, I was even more confused.
Is the chief steward Rong Dou out of his mind? Let people make money for no reason.
"He has only one purpose, and that is to establish a relationship with you through your brother." Mickey narrowed her eyes.
"Get involved with me, but I won't do anything to harm the government."
Gou Shi shook his head.
"You will do it sooner or later. This is just the first step for them. Do you think they use direct money to lure people into trouble? They have no longer used that kind of bad method." Mi Qi said calmly road.
As a deputy commander of the hidden guards, Mickey has long known many tricks to lure people into trouble, and it is by no means that simple.
“What should I do now?”
I don’t know what will happen next.
"Pretend to know nothing and wait for their next move..."
"Don't worry, they will not hurt you or your brother."
"We have also sent people to protect your family members in nearby villages and towns. You don't have to worry about anything. Just act according to your usual life trajectory and do whatever you need to do."
Miqi warned.
"Okay, then I won't care." Gou Shi nodded.
......
Back at his place of work, Gongmen Yong, who was sitting nearby, looked at Gou Shi with a very envious look.
"I've been looking for you a lot lately. It seems like you're going to be promoted."
Gongmen Yong said with a smile.
"Promotion? How else can we be promoted? We are all officials. If this official does what we do, he has already accumulated virtues from his ancestors and burned incense for countless generations. If he goes up higher, he will be an official. How can we scholars, who don’t even have the status of being elected, become officials?”
Gou Shi said disapprovingly after sitting down.
What he said was true.
There is a big difference between officials and officials. Unless there are very special circumstances, it is difficult for ordinary officials to become officials.
Among them, the biggest threshold is the identity of the candidate.
If you fail to pass the imperial examination, you don’t have to think about anything like becoming an official.
"Yes, we people can't become officials, no matter how beautifully things are done."
Gou Shi's words reached his heart, and Gongmen Yong sighed.
"It's okay to ask for some money. Let's do the work well. How can Mr. Qiu be stingy with some money."
Gou Shi was open-minded. If he couldn't pass the exam, he never thought about being a candidate. Officer, it's pretty good to be able to live such a life now. The life is prosperous. If it weren't for the burden of having a younger brother, he really wouldn't have anything to worry about.
Working in a government office means "stable". As long as they do their best and act according to their ability, no matter who the county guard is, it will not have much impact on them.
“Then work hard.”
"Look over there, there's a bunch of information coming back, all from the hidden guards."
Gongmen Yong pointed at the pile of materials that had just been sent.
"I'm going to be busy again. I thought I could rest for a few days."
Gou Shi said.
Hidden guards generally only collect intelligence. They usually do not specifically process and analyze this intelligence. Instead, they hand it over to the people in the government who need it, and it is handled by specialized officials.
"This information!"
Gou Shi's eyes suddenly tightened.
He saw the value of this information.
"What? Is there any problem?" Gongmen Yong asked casually while sorting out other information.
“Only the two of us have seen this information. No one else has seen it, right?”
Hook said.
"Wrong, you should be the only one who has seen this place for the time being. These are sealed with fire paint and are highly confidential information. Generally, I don't read it. You are the only one who can read it. After reading it, file it and submit it. "To the county governor, these are all rules."
Gongmen Yong said in surprise.
"I know the rules. I just asked casually. This information cannot be leaked." Gou Shi said.
"It's normal. How much of the information entrusted to you can be leaked casually? If something goes wrong, no one will be able to take responsibility."
Gongmen Yong still remembered what happened a few days ago. Someone had set up a spying device in their room. Fortunately, someone found it out, otherwise they would be unable to defend themselves.
"Yes, it's fine as long as no one has seen it." Gou Shi didn't speak at first, just sorting out his head.
After he finished sorting it out, he quickly wrote down some of the essential points on a few pages.
Then he got up and ran towards the study where Magistrate Qiu Muliang was.
On weekdays, Qiu Muliang works in his study.
After entering the study, he saw Qiu Muliang sitting at the desk and busy.
In recent days, Qiu Muliang has not gone out to play for a long time.
A few years ago, when Sixiang City was stable, Qiu Muliang liked to write and write. He gathered a group of literati and gathered in many places of interest in Sixiang City. He published several collections of poems. .
Qiu Muliang was born as a serious Jinshi. He has a deep understanding of poetry and prose. He is also quite accomplished in calligraphy and painting. His poetry and prose coupled with his status bonus are still outstanding in Daqi. Have a certain reputation.
"Gou Shi, do you have any important information?" Qiu Muliang raised his head and smiled slightly.
Gou Shi was his right-hand man and an important subordinate.
"Information from Bozhou." Gou Shi said in a concise and comprehensive manner.
“Bring it to me and let me see.”
Qiu Mu said coldly.
What was given to him when he went out were several pages of information that had been sorted out, and the important information was already in them.
Qiu Muliang looked at it and narrowed his eyes.
The water in Banshu is very deep.
It is by no means as simple as hundreds of thousands of troops on the surface.
In this Banzhou, there are actually forces from Yajili, northwest Persia, and even Japanese forces.
Now, among the four largest forces in Daqi, the Black Lotus Sect has lowered its profile and no longer openly confronts the imperial court.
Now there are the other three parties, Beili, Bozhou Yang Family, and the Rebel Han. The rebel forces are compressed in the northeast and cannot advance even an inch. Moreover, the rebel group has been corrupted very quickly recently, and their prospects are looking bleak.
Beili's family's power was blocked outside Jianxi Pass, and the new family leader Beilitu was defeated in Sixiang City, and there was little ability to move forward.
