"The head of the family, it's miserable, it's really miserable."

Wang Shihua originally wanted to go over in person, but everyone under his command was resolutely opposed: What are you kidding, under your leadership, the Wang family is now strong, everyone is more hopeful, and wants to live a better life with you, at this time, you have to go over in person, in case something happens, will everyone still live?

Helpless, Wang Shihua could only send Yang Sanfeng to Fenghuang County with the spy company.

"Sit!" personally poured a cup of tea for Yang Sanfeng, and asked with a smile: "Tell me, what is the miserable method?" ”

"When we arrived in Fenghuang County, the city walls were strong and we were not injured, but when we entered the city, we saw black smoke billowing everywhere, and the people were crying and putting out the fire...... I'll tell you one thing, my lord: I passed by the scene of a bombing and heard a child's cry. I walked over and looked, and guess what? I actually saw a woman covered in blood and her intestines were blown out, but next to her, there were two children, the older one was five or six years old, who was shaking her while calling 'Mommy', and the other child, who was only two or three years old, was lying on her body and sucking. And their Abba was lying not far away, covered in blood, looking at this side weakly, that scene was really sad. I quickly took the three of them with my brothers to the temporary hospital of the county government......"

Speaking of this, Yang Sanfeng suddenly looked at Wang Shihua a little embarrassed, and said, "Family master, I caused a trouble, and I ask you to punish me." ”

"What's the matter?"

"I broke the leg of Zhao Yudong, the head of the Phoenix County Security Corps."

"Fight and fight, can't my Wang family beat people?"

Hearing such lifting words, Yang Sanfeng nodded gratefully. But He Mei on the side, I don't know what she thinks, when she heard this, she actually asked with a smile: "Tell me quickly, why did you break his leg?" ”

"After my brothers and I carried the three of them to the hospital with the door panel, the doctor told us that the man had lost too much blood and needed a blood transfusion. But there are no beds left, so I can only use quilts to cushion the ground...... I thought that in such a big place, even if there were no beds, there should be desks and the like, which was better than lying on the ground, so I searched everywhere. As a result, when I passed by an office, I heard a woman's cry for help inside, so I looked curiously through the crack in the window, Aunt He, guess what? ”

How could such a smart person as He Mei not guess, and immediately rolled his eyes.

"Hey! Hey! But I saw that five men were bullying a girl. I immediately became angry and kicked the door open...... I didn't want to do much, so I told them, 'You want to harm my sister, I can't control it, but I want the desk where this sister is lying', but I didn't expect them to not only lose face, but the person who took the lead saw that there were only three of us here, and scolded my mother, and we fought on the spot. When the brothers heard the commotion, they rushed to help. The guy who took the lead called him the brother-in-law of the head of the security regiment on the spot, and threatened to kill us all. I will say that I am a member of the Wang family in Jiangyin County. He said that this is Fenghuang County, not Jiangyin County...... As soon as I heard that he had insulted my royal family, I became angry, kicked and broke his left leg, and came back. ”

Wang Shihua knew in his heart that the general process was absolutely like this, but in terms of details, Yang Sanfeng must have done something, but he didn't bother to investigate this little thing.

"And the three people you carried to the makeshift hospital?"

"Oops~! Aunt He, I just thought about coming back, and I forgot about it for a while. ”

Wang Shihua shook his head with a wry smile, and instructed the second dog: "Send a few people, take five hundred oceans, and go to Fenghuang County to find Zhao Yudong, accompany him, and ask him not to embarrass the father and son." ”

"Mitutoyo, do a good job, go down and have a drink with the brothers."

"Master Xie."

Yang Sanfeng stood up and was about to leave, but He Mei stopped: "Wait a minute." ”

"Mitutoyo, this glass of wine, you still go to the house to drink." Seeing that everyone had seen it, He Mei smiled at Wang Shihua and said, "Shihua, let's hurry back to Lao Sicheng." ”

Wang Shihua was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Aunt He, you don't have to worry, even if Zhao Yudong is a guts, I don't dare to do anything to us." ”

"Where am I worried about him, what I'm worried about is County Magistrate Fang."

Why did it suddenly get involved with County Magistrate Fang?

"Shihua, you think, Fenghuang County has suffered such a catastrophe, and the government will definitely help it, and our Jiangyin County is next to Fenghuang County, so we must be the target of key care. The county magistrate received the order from above, and with his character, he must be apportioned. When the time comes, with your big head dangling in front of his eyes, it will be strange if he doesn't smile and crooked his mouth. But if you are far away, when he comes to you, the initiative will be firmly in your hands......"

"That's right! I almost forgot about it. Wang Shihua was stunned for a moment, stood up and shouted to the outside: "Quickly let the brothers gather, and we will go back to Laosi City immediately." ”

Sure enough, when Wang Shihua rode a fast horse and rushed out of the county gate with the team in a hurry, Fang Jue happened to come to visit on a fast horse, and met Wang Jiping with a smile. Knowing that Wang Shihua had just left, Fang Jue scolded angrily: "This bastard Wang peeled, why did he run so fast?" ”

Although the Wang family still symbolically donated a thousand oceans afterwards, it was better than being blocked by Fang Jue in person.

Wang Shihua ran back to Lao Sicheng like a plague, and as soon as he entered the house, he heard a report from someone: a senior official of the government came to visit.

When I came to the lobby, I saw Uncle Jiang drinking tea with a middle-aged man, and on the side, Jiang Shoucheng was also drinking tea with two young people.

Seeing Wang Shihua coming, Uncle Jiang hurriedly got up and introduced with a smile: "Commissioner Wen, this is the head of my family...... The head of the family, this is Mr. Wen Yuwen, a special commissioner sent from Chongqing. ”

Wang Shihua threw the horsewhip behind him, hugged his fist at Wen Yuwen and smiled: "I don't know if Commissioner Wen has arrived, the younger brother has missed the distance, and I hope to forgive the sin." ”

"Where, where, the lord of the Wang family is polite."

Wang Shihua glanced at the other party: You guy's attitude is problematic, why don't you come to my house and pretend to be high with me?

"Dispatch Winter, please be seated."

"Please!"

The two sides chatted politely, politely watched the flower drum play, and politely finished dinner, and then, the Wen commissioner invited Wang Shihua to accompany him on the grounds of admiring the Wang family's architecture, Wang Shihua naturally understood that he had something important to talk about in private, but Wang Shihua was a little dissatisfied with this Wen commissioner: this guy always has a superior posture whether he speaks or demeanor, compared with He Mei. But the problem is that He Mei is not only an elder, but also does have great skills, the key is that He Mei is her own person, in this regard, Wang Shihua's endurance is often super strong, so she is arrogant in front of Wang Shihua, Wang Shihua willingly accepts, but this Wen commissioner came to this hand for no reason, Wang Shihua is not very happy. And this will affect the next negotiations between the two sides.

"Master Wang, I wonder what you think of the current situation of the Anti-Japanese War?"

Will you die if you say the word 'Takami'? Isn't it the boss asking the subordinates? Although he was displeased, before he figured out the other party's purpose, Wang Shihua couldn't get angry, so he could only reply with a smile: "Don't be sarcastic, Commissioner Wen is in a poor and remote place, the news is blocked, and I don't know much about the situation outside, and I hope that Commissioner Wen will give advice." ”

Commissioner Wen said with a smile on his face: "I think that although the current situation of the Anti-Japanese War is a little unfavorable to our side, we have a vast land and resources, and if a small island country wants to swallow an elephant, it will have to die sooner or later...... Since Chairman Chiang ordered the relocation of the capital and the unification of the strategy of exchanging space for time, the situation will certainly improve......"

Wang Shihua could bear this kind of rhetoric, but because he had a bad impression of this Wen commissioner, Wang Shihua couldn't help but ask: "I heard that after Chairman Jiang moved the capital, Nanjing City was slaughtered. I don't know ......."

"Alas~! There's no way around it. ”

What can't be helped? Wang Shihua was furious: If someone hits my Lao Sicheng, Lao Tzu will fight to the last man, and he has to let the people retreat safely to the mountains to hide first, how can he pat his ass and leave, leaving the people to suffer?

With such anger, Wang Shihua didn't bother to go around in circles with the other party, and asked directly: "I don't know what instructions Commissioner Wen has for this visit?" ”

Commissioner Wen also really looked down on these small places that had been called the Southern Barbarians since ancient times, and he didn't even have basic polite words such as "don't dare to take instructions", and also replied directly: "On the order of Chairman Jiang, I have come to ask the lord of the Wang family to help open up the trade route from Shendao Town to Chongqing......"

"Please also ask Commissioner Wen to be specific, and I can help."

It turned out that after the relocation of the capital, government workers, soldiers, craftsmen, etc., all flocked to Chongqing, which made Chongqing's population skyrocket instantly, and the Japanese devils harassed Chongqing every day, blocking the roads in Chongqing, and the local material supply had to be able to keep up. At this time, the material supply line has become the top priority, especially the material route that transports materials from the waterway to Shendao Town, then reaches Zhangjiabao through Wangjia's territory, and then transports from Zhangjiabao to Chongqing, which is difficult not to be taken seriously...... This trade route can bypass other places, but it can't bypass Shendao Town, and the Wang family controls the land route of Shendao Town, so naturally it can't bypass the Wang family.

The plan is perfect, but the reality is skinny! The reason why I found the Wang family is because there are many bandits on this material route, and they are born like a spring breeze blowing, and if one nest is exterminated, another nest will inevitably be born, especially in Xiangxi, there are not only many bandits, but also extremely rampant, and they can't be finished, so they can't really send a large army to escort this time, right? Helplessly, the government had to rely on local forces, so there was a trip to send Wente.

When Wang Shihua heard this, he was extremely excited: it is conceivable that once this trade route is opened, it will definitely prosper, and when the time comes, the tax alone will be enough to feed the Wang family...... In fact, Wang Shihua is having a headache for the lives of the new clansmen. If this thing can really succeed, then, not to mention the eating, drinking, and Lazar of these people, even if the population of the Wang family is one or two times larger, relying on this commercial route, it will be enough to feed them.

Under the excitement, Wang Shihua's eyes were full of gold stars, looking at Commissioner Wen was like seeing the God of Wealth, and he regretted his previous inattentiveness, but he asked directly: "It is incumbent on the younger brother to contribute to the country!" It's just that the younger brother also has tens of thousands of mouths waiting to be fed, I don't know, how is this tax going to be divided? ”

"Taxes?"

The other party was stunned for a moment, subconsciously muttered two words, and looked at Wang Shihua's gaze a little more complicated.

As soon as Wang Shihua heard these two words, he looked at his expression again, the meaning was self-evident, and suddenly, Wang Shihua's eyes were cold, and looking at the other party was like seeing a hungry wolf with a bloody mouth......
