The county officer, Li Xiancheng took a teacup and sipped it gently.

"Brother Li, if you have any clever ideas, tell them quickly." Lieutenant Li has always been the most anxious.

"Have you noticed that those people from the four major chambers of commerce are not looking very well today?" Li Xiancheng said with a smile.

"It's not good, if you give them a knife, maybe you will kill our county commander on the spot." Master Yuan said with a smile.

"Yes, he can take a step this time, in order to win over the untouchables and offend these rich gentry, we can send someone to talk to these rich gentry and gather their strength together, and then the surname Lu will have a headache." Li County Chengyin**.

"It's just that the person sent to lobby needs to choose a person who is both talented, knowledgeable, and able to speak." He added.

"Xiao'er is good friends with Shen Liang, a talented man in the county, so it's better to leave this matter to me." Lieutenant Li was overjoyed when he heard this, and volunteered.

He himself is a martial artist, and he doesn't know a few big words, so he puts all his hopes on his son, and studies with him, but it's a pity that the overall level of students in She County is too poor, and his son wants to be difficult to lift like a sky.

Shen Liang is a well-known genius in She County, the word is heavy and virtuous, born in a scholarly family, his grandfather was the governor of Taizhou, and his father was the master bookkeeper in Xinghua County, Taizhou.

Although the Shen family's wealth is far inferior to that of the Chen, Lin, Cao, and Sun families, they have very deep connections in the officialdom, and even Chen Guang does not dare to offend them easily.

Li Xiancheng glanced at Master Yuan's book, stroked his beard and said, "Shen Liang is indeed a good candidate, then there is Brother Lao Li." ”

He was a little dissatisfied in his heart, Yuan Chi was the son-in-law of the Shen family, and his wife was Shen Liang's aunt, so he refused to contribute at this time, it seemed that he wanted to get out of the matter, and he should be careful with him in the future, in case he turned against him.

So when Lu Yuan was still immersed in official business, a powerful force against him in the county gradually took shape.

……

Sun Fu, after today's incident, Sun Bo was even more afraid of Lu Yuan in his heart, and he didn't dare to offend him again, and under the persuasion of his daughter again, he promised to reopen the cloth village, and said tiredly:

"Then it's up to you."

At this time, Yang Zhong suddenly ran into the hall and whispered, "Master, the old lady invites you to come over." ”

Sun Bo glanced at Sun Shaoqing and ordered, "Let's talk about it when I come back." Saying that, he followed Yang Zhong to the back house.

Sun Shaoqing faintly felt that things were going to change, so he hurriedly walked out of the lobby and said to the maid waiting outside the door: "Lan'er, you go and call the five chief stewards to my room immediately, I have something to say." ”

However, she waited for a long time in the embroidery building, but she never saw Lan'er come back, she was about to go out to have a look, and suddenly saw Lan'er running in, her eyes were red, and there was a red mark on her face.

"Lan'er, what's wrong with you?"

"Miss, just now I was about to invite the chief stewards, but the young master suddenly blocked the way and didn't let us pass, I argued with him for a few words, and he slapped me." Lan'er cried and complained.

"Let's go, let's go to him together, I'll help you vent!" Sun Shaoqing was furious and grabbed her hand.

"Miss, forget it, it was my words that offended the young master, and he should have beaten me." Lan'er whispered.

"How did you offend him?"

"I was angry just now and said he was a parasite."

"You, you're really getting bolder, but you can't just leave it at that, otherwise he'll only go too far in the future." Sun Shaoqing pulled her out the door.

After walking a few steps, she suddenly asked, "By the way, how many stewards are there?" ”

Lan'er pouted and said, "I was detained by the young master cousin, he said that we were not allowed to reopen the shop." ”

Sun Shaoqing sneered and pulled Lan'er towards Huo Cheng's residence.

Before he arrived at the West Flower Hall where Huo Cheng lived, he happened to meet him under a corridor, and Sun Bo was standing in front of him.

Sun Shaoqing had expected Sun Bo to change his hexagram, and stepped forward to give a blessing: "Daddy." ”

Sure enough, I heard Sun Bo say: "Shaoqing, just now your grandmother called me over and said that let's not screw with the Chen family, I value the matter of opening a shop." ”

Miss Sun knew that her father listened to her grandmother the most, and it was useless to persuade her, so she sighed in her heart and made a decision in an instant.

"Daddy, since you have decided to choose the Chen family, then we need to go to the Chen family as soon as possible to take the blame, just now our daughter offended Chen Guang, they will definitely not give up, and it is very likely that they will do something to us."

Sun Bo had been afraid of the Chen family for a long time, only to feel a cold sweat behind him, and said in a panic: "Doesn't Chen Qian like you?" They probably don't have to. ”

"Second uncle, Chen Dashao is still locked up in the yamen by the broken county order!" Huo Cheng said anxiously.

At this moment, Deputy Butler Qian walked over quickly and said in a low voice, "Master, Shen Liang Gongzi asks to see you." ”

Sun Bo was flustered at this time, and said to himself, "Why did he suddenly come to me?" Something has happened, daughter, you know him, come with me to see him! ”

"Second uncle, I want to hear it too." Huo Cheng said with a smile.

"What are you going to do?" Sun Bo didn't have a good air, so he walked towards the living room, Sun Shaoqing glanced at Huo Cheng coldly and followed.

After some conversation and sending Shen Liang away, Sun Bo finally breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Since Lord Cheng sent Shen Liang to persuade us to join forces, it means that the Chen family does not plan to do anything to us." ”

Sun Shaoqing looked preoccupied, nodded and said, "Daddy, my daughter will go back to the room first." ”

She was a little worried about Lu Yuan, afraid that he would lose to the Chen family, but not only could she not help anything, but she also had to help the Chen family fight against him, although it was for the sake of the family, she was still extremely uncomfortable in her heart.

……

In the secret room of the Chen Mansion, Chen Guang, Lin Zhao and Cao Jianzheng gathered together to discuss.

"This county order is too bad for your eldest brother, not only shut up Qian'er, but also swept our face in front of so many people, in my opinion, we have to find a way to get him down!" Lin Zhao said angrily.

Chen Guang saw that Cao Jian looked like an old god was there, snorted secretly, and asked, "Uncle Shi, what do you say?" ”

Cao Jian smiled and said, "The old man listened to the nephew." ”

Chen Guang secretly scolded the old fox and said: "We really can't continue to be so passive, but we shouldn't tear our faces directly with the county order now, I mean start with the Sun family first." ”

"Big brother's trick is very good, Sun Bo's bastard snake and rat at both ends, his daughter will let you not get off the stage in front of you today, we should let him know that it is amazing!" Lin Zhao smiled and agreed.

Hearing that it was not in direct conflict with the county order, Old Man Cao was also very satisfied, and said with a smile: "It's indeed a good idea, the old man of the Sun family has been staring at this piece of fat for a long time, if it weren't for the nephew you have been keeping it, the old man would have done it a long time ago." ”

The Cao family has an underworld background, and has a very close relationship with Li County Lieutenant, and its power in the county is second only to the Chen family.

"I'm afraid that Qian'er will blame me if she comes out." Chen Guang smiled bitterly.

"Our county is not only Sun Bo's daughter is handsome, my granddaughter is no worse than her, if the nephew is interested, the old man is willing to give his granddaughter to your precious son as compensation." Cao Jian said with a smile.

"Uncle Shi, don't worry, I have made up my mind, let's find a crime first, get Sun Bo in, and talk about the rest." There was not a word about the marriage.

Old Man Cao didn't care either, stroked his beard and smiled: "Then I'll rob a few batches of the Sun family's goods first." ”

The meat in his heart is good meat, of course, he must start first and get some benefits.

"Big brother, with that county order, I'm afraid Sun Bo won't be able to go to prison." Lin Zhao reminded.

"Maybe he can't get into the prison of the county yamen, but can he still escape from the prison of the Shi Yamen?" Chen Guang smiled slightly, looking confident.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door outside the secret room, and when he opened the door, he saw that it was the housekeeper Qi Chongde.

"Master, Shen Liang Gongzi asks to see you."

"I'll take a look, you're waiting for me here." Chen Guang left the secret room with a serious expression.

After two cups of tea, he finally came back with a smile on his face.

"Big brother, what is the Shen family looking for you?"

"It's not the Shen family looking for me, it's Li Xiancheng who wants to join forces with us and deal with the county order together, and ask Shen Liang to lobby."

"Everyone work together, don't believe in it, you can't kill this dog county order!" Lin Zhao patted his thighs, extremely excited.

"But they also went to the Sun family, and I heard that Sun Bo also agreed." Chen Guang added.

Old Man Cao didn't want the fat to slip away, and said: "The Sun family has always been swinging around, we can't be fooled anymore, we must use them to stand up for power, in order to deter those small and medium-sized businessmen." ”

"That's okay, I'll go talk to Brother Li."

……

Lu Yuan sat on the chair and had just processed some documents, but another scribe came in with a thick stack of documents to be processed, and he suspected that Li Xiancheng wanted to exhaust himself.

It's not a way to go on like this, and after dealing with it for a long time, he also has some experience, and he feels that many documents don't need to be handled by himself.

I only need to pay attention to some important documents such as personnel transfers and criminal cases, so I can't handle it at all by relying on Qin Li alone.

He began to look for help.
