"Oh!" Fan Ming was a little puzzled, and let go of the hand in the woman's arms, "Where did this come from?" ”

Mo Xirong smiled slightly, "The dispute between Bu County Cheng and Wang Zhixian will not be on the table, you are the confidant of the county magistrate, he can't give you a bad look on the surface, he can only make some stumbling blocks in the affairs of the yamen, but we must not use any drastic means, as long as the county magistrate is here, we will be safe." ”

Fan Ming thought about it, and finally nodded, in fact, he didn't understand this, but he didn't have a good background for so long, and this psychological acceptance was far from as fast as imagined, maybe people are like this, money is secondary, and the gap in status is often difficult to change in an instant.

In this official-based society, people live for the sake of continuous ascension in status, all in order not to be dominated by others in their lives, how can he not be so, or focus on his schoolwork, as long as he can survive some time in the yamen, if he can pass the three exams in the future, it is good to add a qualification to his resume.

"Well, that's fine." Mo Xirong nodded obediently, "It's a big deal, let's move to Yingtianfu together in the future, now the business in our shop is good, the supply is endless, the income is very good, and saving for another year and a half will be enough to buy a house in Yingtianfu." ”

Fan Ming sighed lightly, "If you have a wife like this, what more can you ask for a husband!" It's a blessing in my life to meet you. ”

"Me too, if you meet me in this life, I am willing to be a cow and a horse for you." The woman's face was full of happiness, this happiness could be deeply felt even by a Fan Ming, and for a while he kissed the woman's dripping red lips, and the mouth was full of fragrant taste.

I don't know how to go, there was a sound of footsteps outside, and then Xiaohuan's voice sounded, "Young master, the old lady asked you to come over for dinner." ”

Fan Ming let go of Mo Xirong in his arms, and smiled sweetly, "Let's go!" ”

From the moment he walked out of the room, he knew that he had truly gotten rid of the shadow in his heart, and he was no longer the poor boy in the countryside who had a surging heart.

Although he is not an official yet, he is just a county government clerk, but no matter what, he has finally taken the first step, and from now on, he can be regarded as a official and decent official! He is a member of the ruling class with the status of a scholar......

……

At the same time as Fan Ming went home, in a room in the west courtyard of the Yamen, the county Cheng and Xie Zhushu were sitting opposite each other at both ends of the tea house, Xie Zhushu sipped the fragrant tea in the tea bowl, his face was terrifyingly dark, and finally Xie Zhushu put down the tea bowl in his hand and sighed, "This time we are planted, and it is planted for no reason." ”

Buxian Cheng Jian Xie said, "Big brother, how did things come to this, I can't imagine that Wang Fudong dared to temporarily rebel against the water, I don't think he wants to gain a foothold in Chuqiu." ”

"Nonsense!" Master Xie scolded: "He is now clearly on the side of the magistrate, is it so easy for you to move, and his Wang family has a lot of roots in Chuqiu, as the head of the Chuqiu Commercial Bank, do you think you can move as you want, it can only backfire, and you can only win over this kind of businessman." ”

Bu Xiancheng nodded, "Then let's just forget it this time?" ”

Master Xie was silent for a long time, and a hint of fierceness flashed in his eyebrows, "Of course you can't just forget it, even if he wins this shop, it won't affect our foundation, take your time, I don't believe that we can't fight an outsider after so many years of operation." ”

"It's better to let Songzhou's wife and brother come forward directly, Lord Chu of Ying Tianfu appreciates him a lot, just add him any guilt."

Master Xie shook his head, "No, it's not time for him to come forward for the time being, and his rash actions will startle the snake, don't you see that Wang Zhixian didn't use the people in the yamen at all this time, and directly borrowed the Beiying Xiang Army, so you can know that he also has a lot of support." ”

Bu Xiancheng realized, "Then where should we start?" ”

Master Xie snorted coldly, "Although the prestige of this shop Wang Zhixian has been established, isn't the power of this yamen still in our hands, he wants to insert a few henchmen, and we will fulfill his wish, isn't it just a student of a county school, and he can't make any waves under our supervision." ”

"Although it's just a student, you've seen it before, and it's really a talent, and it's always moving under your eyelids, and you're panicking." Bu Xiancheng was different from the rudeness he was showing in front of people at the moment, and he was like a child who had lost his opinion in front of Master Xie, and if the officials in the yamen saw it, it would definitely be unbelievable.

Master Xie smiled calmly and generously, "It's not easy to get him out of the yamen, but there is no need for this now, the time has not come, it will not be good if you startle the snake." ”

"It's just ......" Bu Xiancheng was a little submissive, and he stopped talking, "I'm afraid that this Fan Ming is not simple!" ”

"This Fan Ming is really a talent, but it's a pity that he can't be used by me." Master Xie sighed lightly, and his originally smiling face gradually revealed a trace of ruthlessness, "Let's wait and see what happens, sooner or later we will have to settle this account back." ”

Bu Xiancheng was said by Xie Zhushu, he was speechless for a long time, just bowed his head and was silently sipping tea, it has always been this eldest brother who is making ideas, he is just putting on a show in front of people, and he has been used to it over the years.

Seeing that he was silent, his deferential appearance made Master Xie unbearable for a while, "Forget it, I'll do these things, you try not to conflict with Wang Zhixian during this time, and avoid it if you can." ”

After some more instructions, Master Xie put down the teacup in his hand, stepped out of the door, and returned to that amiable face, which did not make people feel any threat at all.

Three days passed in a flash, but the turmoil in Chuqiu in these three days was far more than just the movement of the previous day, under the tough and unprepared thunderous measures of Wang Zhixian and the cooperation of Wang Fudong, the major commercial houses in Chuqiu also sold at the same time, and the price of salt quickly returned to the usual price.

Because only allowed to enter but not to go out, the price of salt in Chuqiu fell, and the surrounding states also fluctuated under the chain reaction, and some merchants brought news from Yingtianfu, and a special envoy came down from Beijing, saying that he was going to change the law and reform, and the focus of this was in these three divisions, and this forbidden affairs were precisely within the scope of the functions of the three divisions, and the two were hedged, and the entire Jingxi East Road was shaken.
