I Have Awakened The Deduction System

Chapter 31, <anno data-annotation-id="64c0be6e-c660-5690-3bd2-befd85dcf0ee">Lord Qingtian</anno>! Consolidate Political Power!

The next day.

The commander did what he had promised.

He secretly disposed of the dozens of corpses in the county head magistrate estate without anyone noticing.

He Chuan thus smoothly took the position of county head magistrate.

Of course, in such an abrupt situation, he still needed to use some excuses to convince the people.

Thus, the commander came forward and announced to the entire city.

County Head Magistrate Zhang Muzhi was ordered by the imperial court to assist his colleagues in petitioning the capital. His position was temporarily taken over by He Chuan.

Actually, this was quite ridiculous.

Logically speaking, if the county head magistrate was not around, the substitute magistrate would only handle the daily matters.

How could there be such a saying about appointing a person to help?

However, Zhang Muzhi's daily work was quite ridiculous. The people were not surprised and quietly accepted it.

The trial site of the government office was covered in dust.

It seemed that Zhang Muzhi had not come here to hear a case for a long time.

When they heard that he was the deputy magistrate, there were more than ten people standing outside the door in the early morning, wanting to see the splendor of the new magistrate.

When they saw that He Cuan was a ten-year-old child, they were all stunned for a moment, then shook their heads and left.

This was a very normal reaction. Who would believe that a child of such an age would be able to close the case?

He Chuan did not care.

He began to learn more information from the commander.

It was still alright if he did not hear this, but when he heard it, he was shocked.

It turned out that this dynasty was far more rotten than he had imagined.

It had already rotted to the core.

Almost all the officials were imposing exorbitant taxes and levies.

So much so that they formed a system of exploitation in the dark, constantly squeezing the common people.

The people were living in dire straits.

If He Chuan wanted to truly take control of Qingyuan County, he would have to clear out a large number of people.

Therefore, in the next few months.

He Chuan directly used the power in his hands to start cleaning up the corrupt officials and local bullies in the city.

Especially those who colluded with the gangsters for political benefits were severely punished!

The lighter sentence was to be sent to prison, at worst, they will be executed!

During this period, there were naturally many people who resisted.

However, under He Chuan's powerful martial arts, they were quickly suppressed. There was not even the slightest ripple.

For a time, the county was completely clean.

The number of crimes was greatly reduced. The people no longer had to worry about whether their lives would be threatened when they went out.

They had not expected that the substitute magistrate would be so fierce. Not long after he took office, these tumors that had been entrenched for many years were removed.

Not only that, but He Cuan also took out the money that Zhang Muzhi had exploited from the people for many years. He built a public academy and taught the children to read, write, and martial arts foundations.

At the same time, he introduced the imperial examination system, selected talents thorough examinations, and gathered his subordinates to work for him.

They even personally led the farmers out to cultivate the fields and teach them more scientific farming knowledge.

In less than a year.

Qingyuan County was already showing signs of prosperity.

He Chuan was also known as Lord Qingtian by the people.

This title meant that he was honest, impartial, and devoted to the people.

In this era of dynasty rule, it was extremely rare.

[Social status has risen, the 'Lord Qingtian' achievement has been unlocked. Evaluation points have increased greatly!]

When He Chuan heard the notification from the reincarnation Seal, he knew that he could proceed to the next step.

Now, he could be considered to have successfully consolidated his 'political power' and gained a firm foothold in Qingyuan County.

After gaining the hearts of the people, it didn't matter even if the news of Zhang Muzhi's death was leaked at this time.

After all, who would report him at this time?

Therefore, He Chuan began to expand outward at this time.

Zhang Muzhi used to rule over hundreds of counties, townships, villages, and towns.

Now he only controlled one, so of course, he had to take all of these territories.

But it was a bit troublesome to do this.

It was very inconvenient to move in this era.

There was no specially paved road between Qingyuan County and its subordinate towns.

As a result, if one wanted to go to other places, one would have to walk on the mountain road for several days.

"After cleaning up one place, I have to ensure that the news doesn't leak out. Otherwise, the corrupt officials in other areas will be on guard and they won't be able to catch them."

Therefore, He Chuan had to go out personally and lead the city guards to 'go on an expedition' everywhere.

It took him nearly three years to clean up all the trash in this area.

On his 14th birthday.

The people were very grateful and brought all kinds of gifts to congratulate him.

Most of them were very ordinary things.

For example, eggs, fresh vegetables and so on.

After all, the production of this era was limited. The ordinary people, especially those who lived in the ravines, could not earn much in a year.

They were usually reluctant to eat these things.

He Chuan did not mind. It was all the good intentions and blessings of the people. He accepted them all.

Other than that, there were also many other kinds of gifts.

The most unique one was the 'He Chuan' clay figurine that the children had glued together.

Everyone had especially moved it to the town god's temple and worshipped it. They wished that all the people in the world could meet a good official like Lord He.

After that was a banquet.

It was jointly organized by several restaurants in the city and invited all the people who could come!

The wine tables were placed all over the streets and alleys.

He Chuan showed his face in front of the people and after saying a few words, he returned to his residence and began to practice martial arts.

In these few years, he had collected all the martial arts that he could get his hands on in the jurisdiction.

The quality of these martial arts was much higher than the books in the dilapidated temple's scripture depository.

Therefore, he made a second deduction and successfully wrote the absolute art "Tyrannical True Cultivation Method (Middle)".

Now, he had cultivated to the level of perfection and successfully entered the ranks of a second-rate cultivator.

He just didn't know what his actual strength was like.

In the late, middle, and lower stages, what level was it?

Suddenly, someone knocked on the courtyard door.

He Chuan was a bit surprised. It couldn't be that they were here to give gifts in private, right?

When he went out to take a look, it was indeed true.

A young girl was standing in front of him with a shy look in her eyes. She was holding something that was covered by a black cloth in her hand.

"Big Brother Chuan, Qiao'er is here again."

He Chuan smiled gently, "How many times have I told you? I'm two years younger than you. If you want to call me, you have to call me Little Brother."

The young girl stuck out her tongue and made a face. She smiled and lifted the black cloth. At the same time, she reached out her hand.

"Here, see if it fits."
