Chapter 42 The county lord came to the door

The ninth day of the sixth month is a very ordinary day for most people.

This is the second big thing for Cheng Wencai, the county magistrate of Xilan County, after the New Year. Especially on the ninth day of June this year, it is even more important than the Chinese New Year.

"Good luck casino, one hundred and eighty-eight taels of silver, five taels of gold bull. Strictly remember the pawnshop, one hundred and twenty-six taels of silver, and a string of pearls. The Wenji antique shop is only thirty-six taels of silver, and it will have to be beaten tomorrow......"

In the study room of the inner house of the third hall of the county government, Cheng Wencai was smiling and smiling, and on his left hand side, the gift boxes that had been opened were piled up like a hill. On the right-hand side, in the three large wooden boxes, gold, silver and jade objects were piled up high, and they were already close to the mouth of the box.

As the moon rose, Cheng Wencai, who had been working on the desk, finally stopped, and on the left hand side, there was no longer a gift box that had not been opened.

Stretching his waist, Cheng Wen exhaled heavily.

"Today's fortieth birthday, it's really tiring!"

After glancing at the fully written ledger, Cheng Wen closed it, closed his eyes, and showed a satisfied smile on his face, which was no longer as handsome as he was back then, but still had some traces of elegance.

After resting for a while, he took out three copper locks from the desk and locked the three large wooden boxes, Cheng Wencai patted the heavy wooden boxes and got up to put away the account books on the table. Just as he was about to lock it in the dark cabinet, he seemed to remember something, and opened the ledger again to take a closer look.

"Strange, why is there no Fulai Restaurant?"

Cheng Wencai frowned, and his heart moved, could it be because he received five hundred taels of silver from the young man last time, and then ignored the smashing of Fulai Restaurant, which made Kuang Tianwei feel uncomfortable?

This Kuang Tianwei, isn't it just that he was smashed on a few tables and stools and injured a few guys! What's the big deal.

opened the door, Cheng Wencai shouted: "Cheng Hui, Cheng Hui ......"

In the shadows, a young man in his early twenties trotted over and asked, "Fifth Uncle, are you looking for me?" ”

After letting the young man enter the door and closing the door again, Cheng Wencai nodded at the three big wooden boxes in the back: "Find Zhao Bantou tomorrow morning, and let him personally bring a few people to send the boxes to Autumn Wind City with you to exchange them for silver tickets." Also, tell Zhao Bantou that he should send a few officials to Wenji Antique Shop and Fulai Restaurant, three times a day, how to explain, he should know in his heart. ”

"Fifth uncle, let the official go to Fulai Restaurant, is it because Kuang Tianwei didn't come to celebrate his birthday today?" Cheng Hui asked with a smile.

"I can't see that you still have grown, and you actually know who didn't come today!"

"What......" Cheng Hui smiled and said: "Today, Kuang Tianwei and Lou Jingsong, the owner of Lou Kee Winery, came to me together, saying that they wanted to invite you to Lin Kee Inn at noon tomorrow and congratulate you on your birthday alone." ”

"Lin Kee Inn?" Cheng Wencai frowned, how does this name sound familiar?

"It's the inn that Kuang Tianwei came to the door last time and wanted to ask you to help send a few officials to seal it off."

"What's going on with Lou Jingsong? Hasn't he been staying at Lou Kee Wine Shop in Autumn Wind City? ”

"You don't know, Lin Ji Inn is now beautiful, and Fulai Restaurant has been squeezed by him to lose most of its business. This Lou Kee Winery is not having a good time, it is said that the wine sold by Lin Kee Inn is better than thyme, and it is cheaper, although it is only sold to diners, and there is a certain limit, but it is enough for Lou Kee Winery to drink a pot. ”

Cheng Wencai suddenly realized that these two people wanted to follow him to knock on this Lin Ji Inn.

It's okay, for the fortieth birthday, the shopkeeper of this Lin Ji Inn didn't come, so he should go and knock in person. As for Kuang Tianwei and Lou Jingsong, it depends on how much money they have, or whether they have more money at Lin Ji Inn.

Cheng Wencai smiled indifferently, the snipe and the clam compete for the benefit of the fisherman, and the major shops in Sealand City must all fight with each other like these people, and their own words must be comfortable.

"Tell Kuang Tianwei, and say I agreed."

"Alright, I'll inform the two of them early in the morning."

When Cheng Hui left, Cheng Wen was about to go back to his room to sleep, and suddenly remembered that he didn't expect Lou Ji Winery to come to celebrate his birthday.

Although the big families in Sealand City should not have this fluke mind, but the world is unpredictable, it is safer to carefully check whether there are any fish that have slipped through the net.

Tonight, it looks like I'm still tired!

Fortunately, it is not comfortable to go back to the room to sleep and be kicked by the tigress every other time, it is better to stay up late in the study.

Returning to the desk and sitting down, Cheng Wencai immediately opened the account book and carefully compared it.

……

Lin Ji Inn, backyard, Lin Dong really couldn't help it.

When it comes to eating, Lin Dong is not very tight. But every time he saw the silver rabbit, he was indeed a little greedy.

Holding a tray full of carrots, Lin Dong came to the stone table with a smile, put the tray on the table, and raised his eyebrows at the silver rabbit who was basking in the sun with his ears drooping: "It's time to eat, carefully selected fresh carrots." ”

The red eyes swept towards the tray, and the silver rabbit stretched out his paws, grabbed a carrot at a speed that Lin Dong's eyes couldn't see, and took it into his mouth and bit it.

"Eat more, eat more." Lin Dong's smile gradually changed, and the more he ate, the faster he poured.

This is a tray full of carrots, but it is smeared with half a catty of drug, which is enough to fascinate hundreds of big men.

Seeing that the silver rabbit was unceremonious, and after eating one and another, Lin Dong didn't want to waste time, so he took out a bench from the mobile counter and practiced on the side.

The strong wind is howling, the shadows of the stool are coming out one after another, and an ordinary bench is like a wishful weapon in Lin Dong's hands, picking or splitting or stabbing ......

Whoop......

The silver rabbit was chewing the crispy carrot while watching Lin Dong's performance, which was quite pleasant.

Rumble!

Suddenly, Lin Dongmeng flipped up on his back, and the corner of the bench in his hand swept across the ground, and a small but more than 20 centimeter-deep cutting mark instantly formed on the ground.

"Not bad!"

Lin Dong exhaled lightly, the mantra of the Royal Reality Realm had been fully comprehended a month ago, and all that was missing was actual combat experience. This comprehension speed, although it is not as good as Old Man Ding misunderstood, can be fully comprehended in half a day, but it is also on par with Old Man Ding, and may even be a point stronger.

Being able to match the comprehension talent of a peak powerhouse like Old Man Ding, Lin Dong was already very satisfied.

What made Lin Dong a little itchy was that although the mantra and fortune diagram of the Sky Realm had been memorized, he couldn't even cast a trick. The biggest reason is that the spiritual power is not enough.

If you want to use the Skyclave Realm, you need at least the strength above the agility period.

Glancing at the silver rabbit on the table, Lin Dong frowned, he had eaten half a tray of carrots, why hadn't he poured it yet?

Could it be that the seventh-order spirit beast is not afraid of drugs?

The corners of Lin Dong's mouth twitched, if this is the case, he will lose the carrot and the drug.

"Little guy, listen to Yun Lan, your surname is gentle, unless your life is in danger, you will never fight back?"

Lin Dong stepped forward with the bench and looked at the silver rabbit meaningfully.

Click, click, click......

The silver rabbit was too lazy to take care of it, holding the carrot and nibbling on it.

Lin Dong gritted his teeth, he lost his capital, and he had to find a way to get it back. Yun Lan said that this dead rabbit was born with a gentle surname, and he would not fight back if he did not encounter danger to his life, so there should be no fake.

As soon as the bench was raised, Lin Dong waved his arms suddenly, and the strong wind swept towards the silver rabbit. On the side of the bench that went straight down, a sound like a big knife slashed down like a big knife wind.

Rumble!

The stone table trembled, and a long thin mark appeared on the table in an instant, like a big knife splitting.

The silver light flashed, and the silver rabbit was still holding the carrot, but at some point it had left the table and appeared two meters away from the stone table.

Click, click, click......

The silver rabbit gnawed on the carrot and looked focused, as if nothing had happened before.

Lin Dong grinned, the aura poured into the soles of his feet, and with a flickering step, he appeared behind the silver rabbit in a hurry. The long bench crept to one side, and the corners of the bench stabbed straight down, glittering with a silvery white luster like a sharp sword.

Airplanes!

As the corner of the stool was raised, the dirt flew, and then the silver rabbit ran to the other side of the stone table.

Click, click, click......

Lin Dong grinned, Yun Lan kept this dead rabbit for herself, could it be that she was practicing actual combat experience for herself?

"Good speed, come again!"

No matter what Yun Lan's intentions were, Lin Dong was on the same page with this dead rabbit anyway. With a wave of the bench, he galloped with ethereal steps, although his strength was not strong, and his speed had not yet reached the level of a dream, but he also had a faint and flickering demeanor.

One big and one small, a bench and a carrot, Lin Dong chased the silver rabbit all over the yard, with a goal, the ethereal steps gradually became flexible, and the royal reality was no longer picking, stabbing, splitting, and sweeping these moves in turn, but improvised.

After chasing for a whole morning, seeing that there was not much spiritual power left, Lin Dong stopped sweating profusely, squinted at the silver rabbit, and was about to go back to the room to cultivate and replenish the spiritual power to fight again, when the thin bamboo pole trotted in from the lobby.

"Shopkeeper, Cheng County's order is here. The sixth brother was greeting in the lobby, suspecting that there was some conspiracy, so let me ask the shopkeeper what to do. ”

Lin Dong frowned and asked, "Just him?" ”

"There is also Kuang Tianwei, Lou Wanzhang of Lou Ji Winery, and then there is a man and a woman, listening to them, the man seems to be Lou Jingsong, the owner of Lou Ji Winery, and the woman is Hua Hongyue, the top brand of the Drunken Red Mansion."

"There's a lot of people!" Lin Dong smiled coldly, the county master came to visit today, and he estimated that he should seek justice for Kuang Tianwei and Lou Wanzhang.

With a move in his heart, Lin Dong asked, "Is the tigress here today?" ”

"I came, probably because I was afraid of being recognized by a few of them, so I didn't dare to speak out." Thin bamboo pole nodded, during this time, the tigress may be worried about meeting someone who knows her in the inn, she sits in an inn all day long from morning to night, and the little maid is dressed in disguise, and rarely speaks.

Lin Dong smiled, the first card of the drunken red mansion, if it was prepared for the county master. Tonight, the county magistrate will have it.

"Tell Xiaoliu that Cheng County ordered him to be in charge of greeting, and said that I was going out. Let him endure it, if the county master wants to ask for some silver, less than two thousand taels, first draw out the silver for the construction of the winery for emergencies. If two thousand taels can't satisfy your appetite...... Come to me. ”

Lin Dong sighed, no matter what, if the inn wants to continue to operate, it must not offend this county master on the surface. The silver was smashed out, and the county master was asked to get it back behind his back.

If it weren't enough to empty the inn's cash...... One can only hope that in the eyes of the tigress, comfort is more important than silver.
