The soap catchers were quickly in place, and there were not many people, about fifty.

Led by Zhao Bantou and Zhou Bantou, they followed Chen Xiao and went to the Su family together.

Along the way, Chen Xiao was thinking about the consequences.

He understands that the squire is actually difficult to deal with, because it is a group of nobles in a place, and many times, the squire holds the lifeblood of a place, which many local yamen do not want to offend.

For example, many township people, clans, and businessmen are very dependent on the squire.

The squire sometimes represents the common people, who control some of the labor, the fields, and the business, which are closely related to the common people.

In particular, in some localities, government officials are sometimes transferred in large quantities and replaced by new officials, who have nothing to do with the local area, and it is difficult to manage them.

At this time, it is necessary to rely on the squire.

Therefore, it is not unreasonable for Chen Wenshan to be afraid of Su Daqiang, the head of the squire.

And at this moment, if Chen Xiao wants to arrest someone, he has to think about it carefully!

Arresting Su Daqiang must be something that other squires are not happy to see.

If Su Daqiang let all the squires and the yamen go against each other, what should Chen Xiao do?

If you are afraid, they will unite and use the people they can control to oppose the government together, and then it will be over.

Thinking of this, Chen Xiao sighed, feeling that it was not easy.

But at the moment. has arrived at the Su family.

The arrow is on the string, and it has to be sent, Chen Xiao decided. First, according to your own wishes, arrest the people.

If those squires are really wearing a pair of pants, they want to fight against the government for Su Daqiang, let's talk about it again!

Standing outside the gate of the Su family, Chen Xiao's face sank, and he shouted: "Come on, go in, arrest people!" ”

The soap traps who had been taught by Chen Xiao before, wanted to eat this bowl of rice, so they had to be obedient at the moment.

So, one by one, under the leadership of Zhao Bantou and Zhou Bantou, they quickly rushed into the Su family.

Su family, front hall!

Su Daqiang was angry, on the night of his wedding, his concubine was robbed by the county of the government, and he went to ask for someone, but he returned in embarrassment.

As the first squire in Qingyang County, how could he have suffered such a loss?

The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and said, "That new county Cheng, has the investigation been clear?" ”

"Master, I found it out, it's Chen Xiao, the son of the county order, some time ago, he was admitted to the imperial capital and sat as a magistrate, and when he came back, he arrested the history of the county Chengdian.

Later, he got his father's county order position back, and he could mix in the imperial capital, but this time, it is said that he offended the big man and was demoted, and he went back to become a county minister! ”

A subordinate told Su Daqiang the clear news.

Su Daqiang snorted and said, "I offended the big guys, and I dare to be so rampant when I come back?" What a death! ”

"Master, we also found out that the slut lives in the county office, what are you going to do?"

Su Daqiang frowned and said, "Is that so...... Hmph, this woman doesn't know whether she is alive or dead, so she sent someone to the county government to assassinate her, and let her go to see her dead ghost father! ”

"Okay, by the way, master, that Chen Xiao's fiancée is said to be very beautiful, do you want to snatch it back for you by the way?" The next person asked.

Su Daqiang's eyes lit up: "Okay, you kid is sensible, just do it!" ”

The man laughed and left.

Su Daqiang sneered: "Chen Xiao? Hmph, your father wouldn't dare do this to me, what are you? ”

As he spoke, a subordinate rushed in and said:

"Master, it's not good, someone from the government has come and said they want to arrest you."

Su Daqiang stood up all of a sudden and shouted angrily: "Arrest me? Okay, this Chen family father and son, they really didn't take me seriously, and they still came to arrest me? Okay, okay, I'd like to see if they dare to arrest me! ”

With that, Su Daqiang went out.

At this moment, dozens of thugs living in the Su family have come out, holding sticks and knives, and confronting the officials!

However, this time, the fast soap traps were tougher, and these thugs were vain.

Originally, Chen Xiao and the two team leaders could beat a group of them, but now they have added a group of fast soap traps, playing a fart!

After Su Daqiang came out, he looked at Chen Xiao and those fast catchers, and said angrily:

"Chen Xiancheng, what do you mean? I'm a squire, and you've broken into my house like this......"

"Shut up!" Chen Xiao drank and said:

"Su Daqiang, you also know that you are just with the squire, but you led people to break into the official mansion before, do you know what kind of crime it is?"

Su Daqiang frowned, took a deep breath, and said: "Chen Xiancheng, I know that you have some skills, you became a pusher at a young age, but you were demoted because you offended a big man, don't you understand something?" ”

"Oh? Tell me about it? Chen Xiao sneered.

Su Daqiang said: "Be sleek, be a man, be an official, you have to be sleek!" ”

Chen Xiao sneered: "I don't need you to teach me this, Su Daqiang, it is already a big crime for you to lead someone to break into the county government before."

Now this official still suspects that you killed the other party's parents yesterday because you forcibly married a people's daughter, and the two charges are superimposed, so go to the county government with me! ”

"Chen Xiancheng, do you really want to arrest me? I advise you to ......"

Without waiting for Su Daqiang to finish speaking, Chen Xiao waved his hand: "Take it!" ”

Zhao Bantou and Zhou Bantou stepped forward in person, and Su Daqiang's face changed, and he was about to retreat.

However, Zhou Bantou and Zhao Bantou were already veterans, and the two quickly stepped forward with tacit understanding and directly detained Su Daqiang!

Su Daqiang shouted: "Chen Xiao, if you do this, it is tantamount to looking for death, I am a squire, if you find me, the other squires will not stop......"

Chen Xiao disagreed, and said, "Take it back!" ”

Su Daqiang was anxious, and said to his subordinates in the courtyard: "Contact other squires to save me, if you can't save me, you will spend money to gather people, dismantle the county government, and save me......"

I have to say that this Su Daqiang has means, and he has three means, that is, the status of the squire, the abundance of money and the domineering and tough force!

With these things, he can become the head of the squire in Qingyang County and become a bully.

On the street, hundreds of people saw that Su Daqiang was arrested, and almost everyone was shocked.

On weekdays, Su Daqiang didn't take the yamen seriously, why did the yamen have the courage to arrest Su Daqiang today?

The news quickly spread, and many people knew about it.

At the same time, the people of the Su family contacted the squires, and the squires were anxious when they heard that Su Daqiang had been arrested.

You must know that in normal times, although Su Daqiang is domineering, it also belongs to their squire, and they all have a part in the work they do together on weekdays, so they naturally don't want Su Daqiang to have an accident.

So, seven or eight squires took the people in the house together and went to the county government together.

The county government, the county magistrate Chen Wenshan was also shocked when he heard that Chen Xiao had arrested Su Daqiang, and before he could ask carefully, the squires came to the door again.

This county order Chen Wenshan is big, he knows that this time the matter is troublesome, if it is not handled well, it will be the confrontation between the squire and the government, which will make the people of one side chaotic, and this kind of thing is the most difficult to resolve.

In the hall of the county government, Chen Wenshan sat on the top, and there were seven or eight squires sitting on the left and right below, all with calm faces.

"Lord Chen, your son is domineering, as soon as he comes back, he will arrest the first person among our squires, so if this continues, won't we, the squires, be in danger for everyone?" An old man spoke.

"That is, my Liu clan has been in Liu Xiang Town for a generation, and there are countless clansmen, and there are many industries in the city. That day, the county government arrested me, see how you appease my Liu clan, I will take some property and stop, see if your county government will have less taxes......"

"Yes, don't think that we squires are easy to bully, Lord Chen, you either release people today, or, let's make trouble!"

Chen Wenshan's head is big, so he has to open his mouth to appease.

At this time, Chen Xiao, who had just imprisoned Su Daqiang, walked out, looked at these squires, and said:

"Su Daqiang broke the law with his own body, forcibly married a people's daughter, killed his parents, and led people to break into the county government, the crime is extremely heinous, you actually help him exonerate?"

"Hmph, you're Chen Xiao, right? Sure enough, the young man was very arrogant. Let me tell you, we don't care what Su Daqiang has done, we only know that he is an important squire in Qingyang County, you can't be arrested and released! A fat middle-aged man drank.

"Yes, let go, we squires, it's not easy to mess with!" Another old man spoke.

Chen Xiao smiled, on the way here, he had already thought of a countermeasure, and said:

"Everyone, aren't you curious, why did I do it to the first squire of Qingyang County as soon as I came back? Come to think of it, I'm not stupid, my dad isn't stupid, how could I be so stupid? ”

Chen Xiao's words suddenly stunned these squires.

Yes, everyone thought it was strange, thinking that this Chen Wenshan County Decree had always been a corrupt official, and he had never been an enemy of the squires.

Chen Xiao, as Chen Wenshan's son, can't be stupid, right? If you make a fool, won't your father stop him?

So everyone looked at Chen Xiao, and the old man said:

"You say this, it makes sense, it stands to reason that your father has a good relationship with us, it is impossible to let you go against our squire, and he is not stupid!"

Chen Wenshan coughed, he was offended!

In fact, he just couldn't stop Chen Xiao from going against the squire......

But now it happens to be taken advantage of by Chen Xiao, although Chen Wenshan feels weird.

"Guys, there's definitely a reason I'm doing this. Because this time I'm coming back, I'm going to make a lot of money! Chen Xiao said.

All of a sudden, the squire's eyes lit up, and when it came to money, everyone was interested.

"I'm sure you've all heard of the white bar of the most ruthless restaurant in the imperial capital? Don't hide it, the most ruthless restaurant is my industry, if you don't believe it, you can send someone to the imperial capital to inquire! ”

As soon as Chen Xiao's words came out, everyone was shocked, and Chen Wenshan was stunned.

The old squire said, "Actually...... Is it your industry? Wait, what does this have to do with your arrest of Su Daqiang? ”

Chen Xiao explained: "I want to open more restaurants in Qingyang County to sell liquor. If you have heard of liquor, you will know how to make more money. However, my ability to drive alone is limited, and it is impossible for me to open alone, so I can only cooperate with the gentry and wealth in Qingyang County.

You should know that Su Daqiang is very domineering. If I work with him, I'll make less money, and you'll only have to drink soup. But if I work with you, then I earn more, and you earn more. You say, the first thing I should do when I come back? ”

The old squire's eyes narrowed: "First thing...... It's to deal with Su Daqiang, a domineering guy...... So as to ensure that you cooperate with the squire in Qingyang County, and your interests will not be exploited by him......"

Chen Xiao said: "No, it's not just me, it's all of us who don't exploit their interests. If I cooperate with him, I will definitely suffer, you have no money, if I want to cooperate with you, I have to take him down. ”

Present, seven or eight squires all showed a look of sudden realization.

At the same time, Chen Wenshan looked at Chen Xiao, with a shocked look on his face, and thought:

My son...... It's too hanging...... It's so powerful to sow discord......

Chen Xiao looked at those squires and said, "So, everyone, are you going to help me deal with him now, and then everyone will make a lot of money, or will you help him come out and compete with us for benefits?" ”

Hearing this, everyone laughed, do you need to say this?
