Chapter 504: Rich Man

Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Su Bin readily agreed to join everyone for dinner.

Sanzhen Restaurant, owned by the leader of the bandits in Yangzi Lair, offered reasonably priced meals, with a private room available for just two taels of silver.

As 18 people gathered around a large round table, the atmosphere was a bit crowded but lively.

Realizing that two taels of silver wouldn’t be sufficient for a satisfying meal, Poxed Face Wang and his companions opted for more economical dishes.

Su Bin exchanged a glance with Mr. Chen, conveying a silent message.

Understanding the unspoken request, Mr. Chen produced a half-catty silver ingot.

“Governor Su suggests we indulge in a more lavish meal tonight. There will be an abundance of meat, vegetables, and wine. However, there’s one condition let’s all refrain from getting too drunk. We have work to do tomorrow.”

The sight of the hefty half-catty silver ingot brightened everyone’s eyes.

Indeed, Governor Su was generous, ensuring that those in his service were well-fed.

As the group enjoyed their meal heartily, they maintained self-control. Despite being seasoned drinkers, none of them allowed themselves to become intoxicated.

No one wanted to leave a negative impression on the new governor.

The next day, the streets of Shanglin Prefecture were packed with people gathered around the public announcements.

In truth, these notices had been posted the day before, and some citizens had already perused them. The rules and regulations outlined in the announcements were well-known to most, as they were required to memorize them under the penalty of fines and imprisonment for any violations. Prison life, characterized by meager meals and mandatory manual labor, served as a deterrent.

However, what truly caught the public’s attention was the announcement about the recruitment of twelve constables.

The allure lay in the enticing benefits: a base salary of four taels of silver per month, with the potential for an additional two taels as a monthly reward for exemplary performance. Exceptional contributions could even lead to extra rewards. The eligibility criteria were lenient, requiring only good health and the absence of undesirable habits. Young men aged 18 to 23, whether married or unmarried, were welcome, and there was no need to pay a deposit.

Constables enjoyed public meals, and their treatment was so favorable that even bandits had to tolerate them when they wore the constable’s uniform. The prospect of such advantageous conditions piqued widespread interest, prompting more people to gather and discuss the opportunity.

“Is this announcement genuine or a hoax?”

“He’s already filled half the constable positions in an instant. Not only does he earn a substantial monthly income, but even the cost of acquiring constable attire is significant. I heard Governor Su is personally covering these expenses.”

“You’re joking. The announcement has been posted; how can it be fake?” “Did you not hear? The new governor comes from a wealthy family.” “Exactly! The new governor is a wealthy man!”

Many were aware of the affluence within Su Bin’s family. Adding to the ongoing discussions, an even greater number of individuals became acquainted with this fact.

“The newly appointed governor truly stands out. Historically, governors would contemplate ways to cut costs upon their arrival. However, Governor Su, on his very first day, is hiring more than half of the constables.”

“This sets Governor Su apart from his predecessors. I’ve heard rumors about the substantial wealth in Governor Su’s family. Notably, his wife possesses remarkable financial acumen.

“The Zhenzhen seasoning we commonly enjoy is crafted by his wife, who is reputed to incorporate an immortal herb into the mix. The revenue generated from this alone is said to be immeasurable on a daily basis..”
