Oct. 15, 10 a.m

The county magistrate Fang Jue is not tall, has a thin figure, likes to wear Mao suits, and cleans up neatly, he looks very energetic. Especially those calm eyes, which are by no means commensurate with his age.

In the more than ten days since he took office, internally, he has rectified the police station and the tax bureau; The biggest trick to the outside world is to recruit An Xiang Dingkun and his people, although they were ambushed by Xiang Dingtian with people, in the end, they still got more than 100 people, and the foundation is there.

Interestingly, after Xiang Dingkun brought people into the county seat, he couldn't get out -- the original security regiment publicly posted slogans to clean him up. This is not to say, the 800 men of the security regiment drove directly to the outside of the city and stationed there, making it clear that as long as Xiang Dingkun brought people out, he would be cleaned up. In this regard, whether it is Xiang Dingkun or Fang Jue, they are very angry, but they are also very helpless, but who told them to fight each other with this little bit of people?

The county magistrate sweeps the streets and visits the people, which is basically a political show -- which county magistrate has so much time and energy to sweep the streets?

But Fang Jue was different, from the second day of his arrival, he carried a broom to sweep the streets. At the beginning, the people watched coldly, but who knew that Fang Jue insisted on sweeping the street for an hour early in the morning every day. Gradually, the people's eyes changed when they looked at him, and even some people would take the initiative to serve Fang Jue tea to drink.

Today, after Fang Jue finished sweeping the street, he ate two bowls of rice tofu at a roadside stall, and then took a few bodyguards to start his routine inspection of the people.

On the lively commercial street, walk here, look at that, ask again, the smile on your face is constant, and there is no shelf at all. Although he understands that many of the shops on the street belong to the four major families, among which the Wang family has the most.

Speaking of the Wang family, Fang Jue was a little discouraged: when he came, the provincial governor personally met him and asked him to put the Wang family in order. He also thought that the Wang family was the biggest bully in the local area, so he made some preparations, and as a result, he came to Jiangyin County in high spirits only to find that there was not just one, but several, and besides, the Wang family was not the biggest, but it was just bad luck and was noticed by the above. This made him very depressed, but since he came, he knew that there were tigers in the mountains and preferred to the tigers, so he planned to fight with these families.

What made him scratch his head even more was that he originally wanted to fight with the Wang family, but as a result, after entering the county, there was no need to ask, and some government staff reported to him: Don't think about cleaning up the Wang family first, or think about how to break through the encirclement of the Xiang family first, right?

Then, he plunged headlong into the big net of the Xiang family, let alone dealing with the Wang family, it would be good if the Wang family didn't deal with him.

He only fought with Xiang Jiaming twice: he canceled the original security group, and as a result, Xiang Jiaming fought back very sharply and directly ambushed Xiang Dingkun. And in private, the two sides have fought many times, and they have won or lost, but what makes them most angry is: Xiang Jia actually spoke, who dared to participate in the security group in Fang Jue's hands, Lao Tzu led people to kill him that night. As a result, there was really no one to answer the call - without military power, everything was nonsense. This hand, although arrogant, made him very helpless, so he had to take the pro-people line.

When I came to a stall selling millet, I bent down and grabbed a little millet, looked at the color, and said with a smile: "Uncle, how long have you been here?" Is business good? ”

"It's just dawn coming" The old man smoked his cigarette pouch, glanced at Fang Jue, and swept a few plainclothes policemen behind him, and said with a smile: "This year is a good year, and there are not many people who buy millet." ”

"Uncle, don't worry, your millet is in good condition, don't worry about not being able to sell it."

This was supposed to be a comforting word, but I didn't know that the old man laughed when he heard it, and his smile was a little weird, and he asked: "Dare to ask, which young master are you?" ”

"Why do you always say that I am a young master? Can't I just be a businessman? ”

As soon as the old man heard this, he knocked the cigarette pouch to the ground, stuck it in his waist, put away his complexion, and said lightly: "This young master, don't make fun of the old man, let's go!" ”

Fang Jue was stunned for a moment, but became more interested in the old man, and said with a smile: "Uncle, don't dare to disturb your business, I just want to ask you for advice, why do you have to say that I am a young master?" ”

The old man also had a little temper, and when he saw that Fang felt that this was a stalking, he became a little angry, pursed his lips, and said: "If you are a businessman, don't you know that this heavy tax makes people unable to live now?" Don't talk about doing business, even if the old man farms like this, even if he encounters a good year, he can't catch up with the changes in heavy taxes. ”

After speaking, the old man smiled strangely and said sarcastically: "There is a bumper harvest of grain, and so is a bumper harvest of taxes." ”

Fang Jue was stunned for a moment, nodded a little embarrassedly, and was about to speak, suddenly!

"Bang!"

Bullets rang out almost at the same time as the gunshots.

The bullet almost grazed Fang Jue's scalp and hit a plainclothes policeman to his right. The policeman looked at his chest as if he didn't believe it, touched it, there was blood in one hand, and then looked up at Fang Jue blankly, his body went limp, and he fell to the ground.

Fang Jue was shot coldly, although he was prepared in the next life, but when he really faced it, hey! Hey! The bullet flew over the scalp, like the scythe of death, and the "huh~!" "The whistling of the earth, like the grim laughter of death, shook the heart. He wasn't scared to pee his pants, he was a man.

Subconsciously looked at the policeman who was shot, his eyes were empty, his expression was shocked, and he looked completely frightened. Fortunately, those plainclothes are handsome. They all pounced on him.

"Kill someone~!"

The old man who sold millet screamed, which made the whole street quiet, and then the people on the side of the road shouted: "Murder! Immediately, chickens and dogs jumped up, and they ran away regardless of their dodge...... For a time, there was chaos.

Fang Jue was knocked down by plainclothes, and immediately came to his senses, but he was afraid, but he was furious, yelling: "Don't press me, get out of the way, go and catch the assassin......"

Not to mention just a few of them, even if there are many people, in the face of such a chaotic situation, it is difficult to run over. What's more, they can only judge that they are coming from the left based on the sound of gunshots, but they don't know the specific location of the other party, where to catch it?

Tieshi was very confident in his marksmanship, and after pulling the trigger, he climbed down without stopping, put away the gun, and without looking at the result, he crawled back a few steps, and then bowed down and went downstairs. threw the gun to a guy, took the back basket and straw hat handed over by the guy, picked up the back basket, put on the straw hat, and deliberately lowered the front of the straw hat, nodded to Wang Jiping on the side, was about to go out, paused, turned around and asked, "Do you want to bring something?" ”

Wang Jiping thought for a while and said, "Sue sù Shihua, there is me here, let him rest assured." ”

After waiting for Tieshi to take advantage of the chaos to go out, Wang Jiping put down the teacup and hurriedly ran out. Ran to Fang Jue's side, a hundred meters away, and asked with a concerned face: "County Magistrate Fang, I heard that there are assassins, are you okay?" ”

……

After listening to Tie Shi's words, Wang Shihua laughed.

He patted Tieshi on the shoulder: "Well done." Go home and get some rest. ”

"Mi'e and I want to go to my father-in-law's grave."

"It's better to go for a walk! If you need it, you can ask for it yourself. ”

There is one more person in the room - Bai Xianhui, Lao Bai!

He has always wondered: Why did Wang Shihua have to invite himself to dinner today? And I've only been talking about Fengyue, and I've not done anything serious. I really had nothing to do, so I actually pulled him to play chess. Now, he fully understood: Wang Shihua was waiting for the arrival of this guy in front of him who looked simple and unremarkable, but was actually a master. The reason why I want to say it in front of myself is to let myself know, or in other words, to warn myself: don't think about any crooked thoughts, otherwise, I can kill you at any time!

After the iron stone left, Wang Shihua smiled at Lao Bai and said, "Lao Bai, don't worry about these things, let's go on." ”

Lao Bai put the chess pieces and said with a smile: "Family master, Lao Bai, I admit defeat." ”

Faced with this pun, Wang Shihua naturally wouldn't break it, and nodded with a smile: "It's okay, let's go to dinner." ”

……

The county magistrate Fang was assassinated on the street, although it was unsuccessful, but the incident was extremely sensational.

All forces are secretly paying attention to and investigating, especially Xiang Jia, this matter is on their territory, and they have to have an explanation to the outside world no matter what.

As one of the most direct victims, Fang Jue was even more annoyed and angry, and directly ordered the city gate to be closed. Then he held his breath and ran to the police station and scolded the police chief for being a bloody dog.

The whole city was searched, but to no avail!

The city gate was closed for three days in a row, and finally, when the people complained, Fang Jue had no choice but to open the city gate.

But this breath made Fang Jue, who was still shocked and angry when he thought about it now, couldn't swallow it, but he didn't know who the specific target was, so there was nowhere to get angry.

October 19th

The county government suddenly posted a notice: In view of the fact that the county town is too dirty for life and is prone to breeding plagues, it must be vigorously rectified. First of all, each of them cleaned up the garbage in front of their own house, and then cleaned their own homes...... After three days, the inspection, whoever does not carry out the execution - fine!

If it is changed to the fact that the public order is too chaotic and it is necessary to vigorously rectify it, everyone can still understand, after all, the county magistrate has just been assassinated, take revenge, vent some anger, everyone understands. But somehow at this time to say what to say about hygiene, isn't this a cow and a horse that are not related, nothing to do?

It's good that this decree is not issued, but as soon as it is reached, the three major families (the Tian family no longer has a store in the county) have a tacit understanding and choose to oppose the county magistrate at the same time. If they don't move, who will dare to move? Some people even deliberately dumped garbage on the street in front of their doors.

In fact, Fang Jue guessed that he was assassinated, it was very likely that the four major families were responsible, but the most unlikely was the Xiang family, the reason was very simple: this was the territory of the Xiang family, and the original security regiment was still stationed outside the city, and if they wanted to kill themselves, there were ways to kill them, and there was no need to go through such a lot of trouble - until now, he was convinced that the shot was not to scare himself, but to miss. As for the most likely, he thinks that it is the Tian family: as long as something happens to him, no matter what explanation the Xiang family gives to the boss, his family will make the Xiang family unlucky, and the Tian family has been competing with the Xiang family for the position of county magistrate, so he believes that the Tian family will benefit the most if the Xiang family is unlucky.

The reason why there was this inexplicable decree was because he couldn't think of a way to break the ice, so he simply took the opportunity to muddy the water even more, adding to the blockage of the four major families by the way, and then he would talk about it first.

But he didn't know that it was this decree that made him make a big joke, and the positive image that he had finally erected was completely ruined by Wang Shihua.
