Early the next morning, Han Sheng brought Dian Wei and his mother to meet up with the Zhao Family's caravan.
The current head of the Zhao Family's caravan was called Zhao Tai. He was less than thirty years old, but he was shrewd and capable.
The Zhao Family wasn't considered a big merchant, but it was because of Zhao Tai's hard work that the Zhao Family became a big merchant on par with the old merchants.
Zhao Tai was very polite to Han Sheng and the other two. He had even prepared a carriage for them.
The reason why Zhao Tai did this was partly because of Zhao Qian, and partly because he wanted to befriend Han Sheng.
Han Sheng was now the county magistrate of Wanping County. Although his official position was not high, he could manage everything in Wanping County.
The Zhao family had frequent business dealings with the north, and Wanping was an important transit hub. Therefore, the Zhao family naturally had to build a good relationship with the new county magistrate, Han Sheng.
Han Sheng took a deep breath. He was so happy.
'I didn't expect that I would actually obtain a general like Dian Wei during my trip to Luoyang.
Along the way, the three of them chatted and laughed without feeling stifled. However, the scenery along the way made Han Sheng's heart sink. There were more refugees along the official road than a month ago. Thinking that he would have to face the Yellow Turban Rebellion in less than two years, Han Sheng couldn't help but feel uneasy.
Fortunately, this trip to Luoyang recruited Dian Wei, a famous general of the Three Kingdoms. Otherwise, Han Sheng really didn't know how to face the chaos two years later!
He had to pull his team together as soon as possible! Han Sheng thought.
After a bumpy journey for about half a month, they finally returned to Wanping County, which they had not seen for a month and a half.
I wonder how Duke Deng is doing? Han Sheng was both worried and expectant.
Outside Yuelai Inn, Han Sheng and Zhao Tai exchanged pleasantries before parting. When they parted ways, Zhao Tai sincerely invited Han Sheng to have a gathering at night. He wanted to make friends with Han Sheng. Han Sheng couldn't reject the other party's kindness, so he agreed.
After parting ways with Zhao Tai and the others, Han Sheng brought Dian and Wei Niang to his residence in Wanping County, which was the small courtyard that Zhao Qian had lent him.
Before she reached the entrance, she saw a young man squatting at the school gate from afar. Han Sheng found this person familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him before.
The three of them walked straight over. That person also saw Han Sheng and the other two.
" Lord, you're finally back!" That person welcomed him with a face full of joy and excitement.
Han Sheng looked at the familiar face and said uncertainly,""You're a mistress?"
The young man nodded excitedly." Yes, yes, I am the mistress." I didn't expect my lord to remember me!"
"Why are you here? Did something happen in the village?" Han Sheng asked nervously.
Little San quickly waved his hands and said: "No, no, Hanzhuang Village is very good, better than ever!”，Speaking of Hanzhuang Village, little San's expression was very excited.
"Oh." Han Sheng heaved a sigh of relief. He was most worried that something would happen to Hanzhuang Village. That was his forward operating base. If something happened, Han Sheng would even slit his throat.
"Then what do you want?"
The mistress slapped her head. My lord, look at how this lowly one forgot about the proper business in his excitement! Deng Gong wanted me to stay in front of my lord's house and wait for my lord. There are many things that my lord needs to decide!”
Han Sheng nodded, then turned to Dian and Wei Liang and said,""I will go to the county government to deliver the goods first. Second brother, you and mother can follow this mistress back to Hanzhuang Village.”
"Big brother, I'll go with you to the county office.”
Han Sheng thought for a while and felt that it was better to bring Dian Wei along. If the county magistrate deliberately made things difficult for him, he would have a helper. Hence, he nodded." That's good. Second Brother, come with me to the county office."”
"Little San, this is my mother and your grandmother. Bring it back to Hanzhuang Village first." Han Sheng helped the old man to his side and said to Little San.
Little San quickly bowed to the old man and said,"This one greets the old granny."”
Han Sheng and Dian Wei soon arrived at the county office.
Just like before, the bailiffs guarding the door stopped them. However, this time, Han Sheng did not ask the bailiff to report it. Instead, he produced a transfer order stamped with a royal seal. The bailiffs immediately knelt down and did not dare to stop Han Sheng and the other man.
When he arrived at the main hall, the county magistrate of Jin Qin was there.
County Magistrate Jin was surprised to see the two people suddenly appear in the hall because the bailiffs did not report them. County Magistrate Jin recognized Han Sheng and said,""What brings you here, Young Master Han?”
Han Sheng smiled." I wouldn't come here for no reason." Magistrate Jin, this is my transfer order." As he spoke, he handed over the transfer order.
County Magistrate Jin was not surprised at all. He took the transfer order and gave it back to Han Sheng after a brief look. "This old man also thought that someone would come to take over Wanping County's position soon, but I didn't expect it to be you, Mr Han."”
"If there's no problem, let's settle the deal.”
County Magistrate Jin nodded." Of course."”，Then, he said to a small official beside him,"Bring me the county's account book. I want to hand it over to this new lord.”
The minor official jogged away. A moment later, he ran back with a stack of bamboo slips.
County Magistrate Jin gestured for the small official to place the bamboo slips in front of Han Sheng and said,""Mr Han, no, I should call you Lord Han now. These are the various account books of the county. Please take a look.”
Han Sheng nodded and sat down to read. Dian Wei stood behind Han Sheng with a serious expression.
Han Sheng didn't care at first, but the more he watched, the angrier he became. Not to mention other things, just in terms of money and grain, the entire county only had 100 gold and 3,000 catties of grain.
Han Sheng slammed the bamboo scroll on the ground." Magistrate Jin, why is there only a hundred gold and three thousand catties of grain in the county's warehouse? Are you kidding me?"
County Magistrate Jin spread out his hands and said," This county is poor and remote. It is the credit of this county's hard work to have this money and food. Lord Han, please don't be unsatisfied."”
This time, Han Sheng was even angrier. The county's finances had only left him with this little bit, and he was actually asking him to be content!
