Of course, dividing officials means dividing profits, and it is most difficult to balance a bowl of water. Xu Yi also considered the pros and cons of all parties and reluctantly made the arrangement.

Fortunately, he maintains his prestige and has never disappointed his subordinates. Also, Cheng Yan, Captain of the Personal Guards who follows him closely, has never received any position.

Therefore, sitting in rows and dividing fruits at the main venue went very smoothly.

It seemed that he knew that Xu Yi would not give Fuzhong a chance to interfere in Dongshan Prefecture's personnel affairs, so Fuzhong did not rush to send Prefectural Judge and Prefectural Guard Captain to Dongshan Prefecture.

It was uneventful for two days in a row. Although Xu Yi did not relax his vigilance, he would not delay the operation and arranged it early.

"Six Senior Brother, the streets have been quite uneasy recently. There are more and more new faces, and they are all good players. If the prediction is correct, they must be the people of the new subordinate order Xu Yi. They should not be underestimated."

In an underground secret room, an old man with a gray beard solemnly told a middle-aged man with yellow eyebrows what was going on. There were three other people sitting around.

"The guy surnamed Xu really has a good tooth, so he bit off this tough piece of Huang Kai, and then targeted our Black Lotus Cult again. Hehe, I think he is looking for death."

The person who answered was a young man in green clothes with a cold expression.

The young man in ge robe next to him, He spoke, but his voice was quite old, "Xu Yi It's nothing to worry about. I asked someone to find out clearly. The reason why Fengqi Mountain was suddenly disbanded was entirely because Huang Kai lost his mind. Okay. Great King It's inappropriate. If you want to travel around the world, you're just a half-Madman. This is purely due to Xu's invitation to heaven, so, six Senior Brother, we really don't need to overestimate Xu's strength."

The yellow-browed middle-aged man was silent for a moment, then he tapped his finger on the table and said, "We don't care how Xu Yi behaves. I want you to continue to give orders. You must be careful in the near future and don't make any mistakes. Please note that we We run three cities in Dongshan. Due to the outbreak of war, which has affected all the people, it is not easy for us and others to preach. Compared with other branches, our progress is extremely slow. Now that Black Lotus is about to succeed, we will never allow any accidents."

"Yes!"

Everyone agreed with one voice.

At this moment, an extra Ruyi Pearl appeared in the palm of the yellow-browed middle-aged man, urging him to release the restriction, but a hoarse voice came out.

After a moment of exchange, middle-aged Huang Mei took Ruyi Pearl, glanced at the crowd and said, "It seems that this person named Xu is really not popular, that's all. That person and I have helped a lot, so we have to give him face. After you go down..."

After the yellow-browed middle-aged man gave his orders, everyone looked happy and left immediately.

In a blink of an eye, another three days passed. The government was still preparing to send down the new Prefectural Judge and Prefectural Guard Captain. At that time, the organizational list of Dongshan Prefecture officials sent by Xu Yi was approved and quickly sent back.

At noon that day, Xu Yi was immersed in reading the classics. Cheng Yan invited Li Ping to see him.

Dongshan Prefecture is newly established, Xu Yi has expressly stated that Cheng Yan, Section Chief or above, if you wish to see it, there is no need to circulate it.

"Sir, something bad is going on. The speed at which the three cities are gathering their willpower is clearly showing signs of slowing down. If it continues to slump, I'm afraid we won't even be able to raise the government's taxes this year."

Li Ping looked panicked.

He newly invested in Xu Yi, and Xu Yi appointed him as the chief of the Animal Husbandry Section, surpassing most of Xu Yi's old departments. It can be said that he was not reused.

Li Ping also tried his best to repay Xu Yi's important use. Since taking the order, he has organized his troops and frequently visited the three cities without a day's rest.

Xu Yi put down the heavy book in his hand, stared at Li Ping and said, "But are there people fleeing in large numbers again?"

Li Ping said, "Your Excellency, you will retreat to Huang Kai and relieve Fengqi Mountain's difficulties. When the people heard about it, they all cheered and jumped for joy. At the same time, the civil war in our Dongshan Prefecture has ended. A large number of people have returned home for several days in a row. The population can only increase, not decrease."

Xu Yi thought to himself, "If it's not a natural disaster, it must be a man-made disaster."

However, he did not inform Li Ping of his suspicions. He only asked him to pay close attention to the situation in the three cities and then let him go.

As a superior, putting the right people in the right positions is what he should do.

Director Li Ping is familiar with Dongshan Prefecture's situation. Being Chief of Civil Affairs is more than enough. Xu Yi is not going to bother him with other matters.

After Li Ping left, Xu Yi asked Cheng Yan to recruit Zhong Wu.

It took half an hour before Zhong Wu hurried over and stepped into the hall. Xu Yi asked with all his face, "Have you achieved anything in the past few days?"

Just after the Four Section Chiefs task was assigned, Xu Yi began to take action.

The first thing to pay attention to is the obscene sacrifice mentioned by Li Ping.

He chose Zhong Wu as Chief of Internal Affairs. In addition to the reward, he also valued this guy's roughness and finesse.

The matter of inquiring about the situation of the prostitutes was left to him.

Now, Li Ping came to report that the number of wishes gathered in the city every day has dropped sharply. The first thing he thought of was those guys who engaged in prostitution and stole wishes.

"Your Majesty, I'm ashamed to say that after five days of searching almost all over the city, there was no trace of the obscene priests at all. But I dare to conclude that they do exist. It's just that they are powerful and occupy the advantageous location. Every time there are some clues, the clues will be lost immediately. I'm really afraid that I have some power that I can't use."

Zhong Wu has a shy face, low eyebrows and low eyes.

At this moment, Cheng Yan hurriedly walked in, "Sir, I have received a new official document from the government. Tomorrow morning, Prefectural Judge Cao will personally send the new Dongshan Prefecture Prefectural Judge and Prefectural Guard Captain to take office. We should be prepared to welcome them."

Xu Yi frowned and said, "I invite Li Ping to come see me."

Immediately, he sent Zhong Wu to go down first, and told him not to tighten the string so tightly and just write down the suspicious points as much as possible.

Zhong Wu just went, Cheng Yan brought Li Ping in, Xu Yi informed Prefectural Judge Cao and the new Prefectural Judge, Prefectural Guard Captain of the arrival, and asked him if there was any meaning in it.

Li Ping said horrified, "This is too coincidental. As soon as the increase in willingness has dropped significantly, someone is coming to the mansion. Sir, the person who comes here is not good. In the past, subordinates have been transferred before completing their term due to poor management. Among them, the increase in willingness is the most important indicator. If Prefectural Judge Cao causes trouble with this, I'm afraid the problem will be troublesome."

Xu Yi nodded slightly and told Li Ping not to patrol the city for the time being, but to shoulder the reception task for tomorrow, and then let him leave.

Xu Yi asked Cheng Yan to close the door, extinguish the lights in the hall, close his eyes, and find himself in darkness.

The situation collapsed so quickly that he was beyond his expectation. There was really a tiger in front of him and a hungry wolf behind him, which had already trapped him in the middle.

If you don't handle it well, you will be in a situation where you are feeding a tiger or a wolf.

After thinking for a moment, Xu Yi stood up, walked out of the hall, and headed down the mountain.

As sunset approached, he rushed to Fengle City and went straight into a house in the west of the city.

As soon as he entered, Zhong Wu came out and led him into an underground secret room. In the secret room, the new Chief of the Anti-Banditry Section Li Xin was already standing by the door. When he saw Xu Yi, he hurriedly saluted.

Xu Yi waved his hand, "Stop talking about anything else, Old Zhong, I asked you to map out all the suspicious locations. How did you do?"
