Taking advantage of this moment, Mr. Zhao Ershi sent the managers who inspected materials everywhere and reported to him that the treasury was empty, with nothing in food, arms, and gunpowder, and even Changping warehouses were moved.

"All the libraries are empty?" Mr. Zhao asked in disbelief.

"Yes." The managers said speechlessly: "The six warehouses in the city are all in a mess, just like they were robbed."

"Isn't it just being robbed?" Several ambassadors of Ku who were brought back to report their lives with a sad face: "The big families in the city said that if the city is broken, they will be robbed by Zeng Yiben. It would be better for them to come first. Only with money and grain can they defend the city for the government... How can the villains stop them? They can only watch as they smash the Kumen and move away all the things they can."

"Where are the three yamen runners in the Prefecture and County? Are there any soldiers from Tan Qianhu? Didn't they ask for help?" Zhao Shouzheng said angrily. The emperor is not too hungry. How can he lead people to defend the city if he has no money and food?

Well, it seems that I don't even have anyone...

"The runners in the government are all defending the government and are too busy to take care of themselves; the county dares not wading into this muddy water; as for the soldiers brought by General Tan, they belong to them..." Several ambassadors looked at Tan Yong next to them in fear, and swallowed the conversation at the same time.

"..." Zhao Shouzheng already understood that there must be no one more fierce than they robbed...

"I'm humble, there's no way to be a humble position..." Seeing that Mr. Zhao looked at him with a bad look, Tan Yong quickly explained in panic: "When we retreated to the capital, we brought too hasty food and fodder. The navy came ashore again, and a lot of supplies needed to be replenished. The war was about to be imminent, so we had to requisition..."

"If the war was not imminent, I would have chopped off your dog's head!" Zhao Shouzheng snorted coldly and interrupted him, "I wouldn't let you return it if you take away any supplies, but you must issue details and submit them. You can't just make a fool of yourself!"

"Oh, yes." Tan Yong nodded with a bitter face and retreated to the distance and asked his hundreds of families to count the supplies in their hands.

"Boss, why are you so afraid of him?" Several hundred households were a little dissatisfied and asked in a low voice: "It turns out that when Gou Sima was there, you didn't see you pretending to be a grandson?"

"You know what a fool." Tan Qianhu spat fiercely: "Officials are the same official, different people are the difference. It's so big! Gou Zhongwen was a poor scholar, but he was like a widow who had no one to sleep. He was like a widow who had no one to sleep. No one to support him or use him. No one to use him or her. No one can use him or her. No one can use him or her. No one can use him or her. No one can use him or her. He is afraid of such a thing?"

"Then this Zhao Sima," Zhongbaihu asked with wide eyes: "Different?"

"Of course different. Are you blind? Didn't you see the situation where others came to take office? There were 500 people, two horses per person!" Tan Qianhu grinned and said, "Although the prefect will make a big noise when he takes office, he will use the official army as a scene. But what about this Sima Master? They are all his own troops! Moreover, the guards are all strong and powerful, and everyone has two short Western guns on their waists. This guard equipped with the governor is not comparable. If we dare to get angry, we can destroy us on the spot. Do you believe it?"

"My God..." The hundreds of households sucked in their air. "So fierce?"

"This is not the most powerful." Tan Qianhu lowered his voice and said incredible: "When you were greeting me just now, I heard that among the friends who came with Sima, there were two Jinshi and more than a dozen Juren. Do you know what this means?"

"What? The Jinshi master is not an official, but aides for him?" The hundred households said absurdly: "When did the Juren change the wholesale? I heard that there are only two Juren masters in the Governor's Office."

As for the great master of Jinshi, there is not even one!

"I also find it incredible, but Shu Fu An Yi Qin Shunhan and others agree, which means that this matter is not adulterated." Tan Qianhu sighed: "It also means that his background may be greater than that of the governor."

"How is that possible?" The hundred households stared at the dog.

"I'm talking about possible, but no matter whether it's big or small, I'll ask you, do we dare to mess with Sima like this?" Tan Yong gave them a blank look.

"I dare not mess with you." Now all the households admit defeat. "The boss is still far from us!"

"Of course, otherwise why am I the boss?" Tan Yong snorted proudly, lowered his voice and ordered: "Any word, cheer me up and serve me carefully. If you have any mistakes, don't blame me for not pleading for you!"

"Yes." The hundreds of households responded in a hurry.

Similar conversations also happened everywhere in the city. Tan Yong and his martial arts man could see the extraordinaryness of Zhao Erye. How could Shu Fu, An Yi, and Qin Shunhan ignore it?

In fact, they were in the officialdom and got more news. They knew that the Zhao Erfu was not an ordinary Sima. His father was Zhao Liben, the Minister of the Southern Ministry of Revenue in the Jiajing Dynasty, and was extremely profound in Beijing. He himself was also very capable and had been ranked first in the country for many years. It was only because he was evil in the emperor and had been sceptered by the court that he had to come to Chaozhou to be a magistrate.

Advertisement, [app] is really good, worth pretending, after all, there are many books, all books, and quick updates!

But everyone believes that he will be recalled to the capital one day. Because of legend, he was still the in-laws of Grand Secretary Zhang of the current dynasty. One day the emperor was in a good mood, Grand Secretary Zhang took the opportunity to make suggestions, and this matter was settled.

There are even more outrageous rumors that Zhao Zhuangyuan has an affair with the eldest princess. Haha, how is that possible...

In order to convince the gentry of the mansion to attend the meeting, Shu Tong and the others also tried their best to bring out all the unreliable gossip rumors to increase their weight to Mr. Zhao.

However, the effect was immediate. The big dogs were curious about them. For nothing else, they would come here just to meet this magical top student.

After all, in the 200th anniversary of the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the reign of the reign has only produced more than 60 top scholars, which is even rarer than the Grand Secretary! How can I not go and see?

Besides, when people are in panic, they have to listen to the direction of the wind and see whether they should go or stay, fight or reconcile?

So, one hour later, more than a hundred leading figures from the city gathered on the city gate tower of Guangji Gate to meet the new Zhao Sima.

"Sima, what are your instructions for calling us?" After the ceremony, an old man of sixty years old and extraordinary demeanor asked.

Wu Chengen behind him quickly reminded Zhao Erye that this man was named Liu Zixing, whose courtesy name was Binzhi and his pseudonym was Jianhu. He was a Jinshi in the 20th year of Jiajing. He served as the magistrate of Linhai, Zhejiang, the head of the Ministry of War, the chariot, the senator of Fujian, the military commander of Jianchuan, the military preparatory road in Jianchuan, Guangxi, the senator of Fujian, and the left governor of Guangxi. Later, he retired to his hometown by illness.

Because the Ming Dynasty divided the North and South lists to win the students, Guangdong, Zhejiang, Huguang, Jiangxi and Fujian shared the admission quotas on the South list. These provinces are either major imperial examination provinces or large population provinces. What is the poor and helpless Guangdong Province to compete with others? Therefore, except for the three underdeveloped provinces in Guangxi, Yunnan and Guizhou, Guangdong has the lowest number of admissions in each subject examination in the country, and it is basically concentrated in the Pearl River Delta area.

For prefectures like Chaozhou, which are far away from the provincial capital, it is a commendable to win a Jinshi in every subject. The previous Jinshi was a Chinese style in Jiajing forty-four years, and by the Longqing Dynasty, he had shaved his head in two consecutive subjects. The so-called rare things are precious, and the weight of the Jinshi in Chaozhou is much heavier than that in Suzhou Prefecture. Liu Zixing was the highest official position, so he naturally became the leader of the gentry, and his influence in Chaozhou was greater than that in the prefect.

If this were normal, Mr. Liu would never have been summoned to come. Not to mention a co-education, even if the prefect takes office, he must first visit his mansion. Only by getting his approval can he sit firmly as the Lord of the Mansion.

This time, Liu Zixing surrendered and noble, naturally, because the giant bandit once came to the city, had to put down his airs, unite in unity, and fight against foreign enemies together. As for what he actually thought, only he knew it himself.

Seeing this senior who represented the local forces questioning, Zhao Shouzheng did not dare to be arrogant and hurriedly bowed deeply: "I should have visited Hu Gong to visit him, it was really rude."

"In extraordinary times, there is no need to be polite." Liu Zixing said deeply: "Zeng Kou may kill to the city at any time, but Zhao Sima still talks less, so we will have time to get close to each other in the future."

"Yes, then the official will just say it." Mr. Zhao nodded gratefully, and then said to the crowd of dog owners with different expressions in a deep voice: "I believe that you have already told you the general situation, so there is no need for me to repeat it. The purpose of this official asking you to come is also very simple to borrow people, grain, money, and weapons from you, so as to lead everyone to guard Chaozhou City!"

After Zhao Shouzheng finished speaking, the city wall fell into a desperate silence...

Some of the gentry looked at the sky and counted ants, some stood and closed their eyes to rest, and some even looked at him with teasing eyes.

Even the quiet Liu Zixing sighed softly. Although all the officials convened a meeting of gentry, no matter what the reason was, they would always have one purpose, which was to make them bleed. But this top scholar was too straightforward and did not hide it at all, so they were too lazy to package their purpose.

What is the difference between this and robbing?

And the biggest problem is that people either ask them to pay or work hard. Why did they want all the iron-sucking top scholar when they got to this iron-sucking top scholar?

Let’s work together that everyone can’t do it? There is not enough bloodletting, and I still have to amputate him? It’s really a dream to marry a wife and think about good things!

If these people hadn't had a great family in Fucheng and had no choice but to leave, they would have gone downstairs and stopped serving them long ago.

"Why don't you speak?" Seeing that they were silent for a long time, Zhao Shouzheng asked again: "Do you guys understand the official language?"

"I can understand it." This time someone finally answered. A man in his forties and wearing a round neck said coldly: "But we have small families, no one, no money, no food, and no weapons. We are afraid that we will disappoint Sima Zhao."

"Is that true?" Zhao Shouzheng was not upset and only smiled slightly, "Where did the 100,000 taels of silver, more than 100,000 stones of grain in the treasury, three thousand pairs of armor, two thousand pairs of bows and arrows, and one thousand muskets in the treasury?"

Seeing that Zhao Sima was actually calculating the slightest points, the atmosphere on the city gate building suddenly became more and more stagnant.
