Compared with the outside of the county, the family in Fengyou County is naturally more wealthy, with excellent clothes and satin finishes, and many people are literate and literate. Although they are not necessarily extremely talented, they are also a little bookish. It is probably because of this reason that ordinary people are ignorant of people in the world who only know how to shout and kill, especially when they are ignorant. If the youngest son in the family has any clues of playing guns and sticks, he will even beat him up to beat him to relieve his anger.

Therefore, Fengyou County is a martial arts place with many gangs, but it seems that the two are clearly distinguished. Ordinary people and the people in the martial arts world carrying swords and swords have almost no communication, and they often have some grudges. However, because the horse gang in the county is now very powerful, the people in the martial arts world are now much more confident than in previous years. The people in the government do not have such courage and are arbitrarily biased and right and wrong. Therefore, when encountering disputes between the two, it is really hard to start to sort out.

The county magistrate's office is not deserted today. The first thing is the Zhang family in the county. Although he said that he did not bring gifts on this trip, he did not dare to bother the county magistrate. Even when the servants searched for their bodies, they found nothing. Everyone knew that the county magistrate's office has never accepted heavy gifts. Even the Zhang family, the most wealthy Zhang family in the county, did not allow them to bring gifts. If they wanted to enter the county magistrate's office, they had to go through the county magistrate's office three times before they could come to the door to see each other. This is the rule.

But today the head of the Zhang family came in person, and the servants also knew the skills of the head of the family. When searching for things, they were a little relaxed, so they brought the little politeness they said into the mansion and came to the county magistrate.

"Boss Zhang, you and I have a strong relationship with each other on weekdays. Now, can we make it a bad reputation for my foolish brother?" In the main hall of the county magistrate's palace, a middle-aged man with extraordinary talent came up with a brocade box in front of him and asked with a joking look. His expression was already very bad when he was held accountable.

"I have no intention of this," the man who got off the seat gave in to apologize. "I have been intimate for a long time, how could I not know the rules of my brother's mansion? I will not hide it from my brother's house? Two or three years ago, the elders of the Zhang family sent me to pay tribute. The most precious one was less than hundreds of thousands of dollars. It was because I knew that my brother's house had never been willing to accept the gift, so I refused to delay it until now, but today I can't hide it anymore." The man was old and only had a good attitude, but he was very generous with his words and deeds. He seemed quite generous.

"Why?" The county magistrate frowned, quite dissatisfied. In the eyes of a literati like him who had always been familiar with articles, the way of merchants was completely unavailable to enter the hall. The reason why he had a good relationship with the head of the Zhang family was because the latter had a deep knowledge and had a sense of meeting a soulmate when talking to each other. However, today's incident caused the county magistrate to be very angry.

"The horse gang is powerful and acts without restraint. Fengyou County should be the leader of the official family, but after the former is prosperous, it is inevitable that there will be a sense of overtaking the matter." The head of the Zhang family smiled bitterly, and did not hide too much. Instead, he said truthfully and slowly said, "The canal transportation business and even the gambling houses are businesses that make a living by various merchants. If you want to transfer money in Fengyou County, merchants will always need to take over. But now most of the businesses are trapped in the hands of the gangs in the gangs. With the so-called loyalty and weapons at hand, it is extremely unreasonable to think about it, and it has already aroused the original Fengyou County merchants in their hearts."

Speaking of this, the head of the Zhang family sighed and bowed slightly with his hands. "I know that my brother has never put merchants in his eyes. After all, one reads articles of sages and strategies for peace and stability, while the other is just playing some money in the secular world. Apart from being slandered, he is only smart and greedy, and he is obviously not allowed to enter the list of great elegance."

"But people always have to eat, right? It is a common sense that merchants have never been in the top third class. However, the reason why they have survived to this day is that they can afford to eat and support their families. Since the horse gang gradually took over these businesses, people in the world have become more and more particular about food, but fewer ordinary people have enough food. Moreover, they are not business-friendly, and many businesses are in the hands, and they are not allowed to make any profit. My brother is familiar with the income and expenditure of the treasury government over the years, so he must be more sympathetic to the people. You might as well ask someone to check it out. Fengyou County is now far less rich than before."

The county magistrate's expression cleared slightly, but then he thought for a moment, picked up the tea in front of him, slowly scraped off the tea powder, and asked calmly, "The horse gang is powerful, but the Guan family has never held a conviction on the surface. Even if they know that the behind-the-scenes activities are shameful, it is difficult to suppress them for no reason. Moreover, people in the world have always been unscrupulous. If they really act abruptly, they don't know how much trouble they will cause."

The words were gone without a trace, and he threw the words at the head of the Zhang family, with a calm expression on his face, but he was the one who was the one who was a good official.

The head of the Zhang family also knew it and quickly responded, "I heard that among these sects, there is a family called Baihumen. The master of the sect is very skillful, and the number of masters under his seat is not inferior to the horse gang. Although the latter is large and powerful, if the former can be used to control the horse gang firmly, the people in the world will be scattered with trees. Moreover, it can also use the Baihumen to control all the martial arts and tourists from Fengyou County, and they will be able to use the Baihumen to take charge of all the martial arts and tourists from Fengyou County. Isn't it beautiful to kill two birds with one stone?"

"You are so good at calculating." The county magistrate spoke lightly, unable to see his face, and drank tea one after another. Then he put the tea cup back on the table, glanced over the brocade box, and then looked at the face of the head of the Zhang family. "In the past, we met, mostly we drank tea and chatted in the residence. Every two days, we would also drink several drinks. This time, we came to the county magistrate's mansion, and I thought we were prepared, but I didn't know that the Zhang family, the dignified Fengyou County, was the leader of a group of merchants. In addition to making money, we could also think of the many twists in this matter. It seems that Brother Yu still despised you Zhang Xiulou."

The man sitting facing him lowered his head and did not dare to look at him.

"But Xiulou is a businessman in the business world. Although he is quick-witted and has the same way of making money, how to be an official, how to govern a county, and even a bowl of water is leveled. Even if he has thought about many suns and moons, he still has to stop trying it." The county magistrate pressed his fingers on both sides of his forehead and frowned. "The people in the rivers and lakes are also people. Don't draw so clearly. Fengyou County has been favoring both of them for a long time. Now the horse gang is finally in power. How can a white gourd gate that is rarely heard of in the world? It is true that the tree falls and scatters are scattered, but if there is only such a lush giant tree within a thousand miles, the monkey may not be able to break the net to death, and fight with the loggers to death."

"But what I am most suspicious about is that you, Zhang Xiulou, knows that Brother Yu is most afraid of others coming with gifts, so why is he still going to be troubled by this trouble? The head of the Zhang family might as well solve the problem and say to me."

The county magistrate gathered his five fingers, clearly at the age of not being confused. His palms were indeed very good, and his knuckles were clearly distinguished. He lifted the brocade box again, revealing a twinkle of cold light, which reflected on his face and the head became colder. However, the cold light touched the forehead and temples, but it vaguely caused the pain in the forehead to slightly disappear 60 to 70%, and the spiritual platform was bright.

Few people know that this Fengyou County County Magistrate who has been well-read since childhood and has used the five-character small calligraphy as a master of Fengyou County. He was trapped by the head when he was young. Whenever he was worried or trivial political affairs, he felt a pain on both sides of his forehead. From shallow to deep, when the lesions are at the deepest, he cannot sleep all day long, which is extremely harmful to his mental strength.

"The original intention was to follow the flow. I guessed that my brother was interested in reorganizing Fengyou County. It happened that the elders of the Zhang family were urging me tightly, so I picked out such a jade bead from the family warehouse. It was rumored that it was taken from the nest of the great demon in the mountains. At the time of birth, several immortal gates had come to buy it one after another, but they were protected by the elders in the family to fill the family's foundation, which was only now." The head of the Zhang family sighed, "When I was drinking tea and wine a few years ago, I noticed that my brother seemed to have an old disease. Later, I realized that it was a hidden disease in the head. The pain was unbearable during the attack. It happened that this jade bead could cure the lesions and prolong life, so I handed it over to my brother. I have been taught for many years and the jade bead was placed in the warehouse and was still covered with dust. It would be better to use it as a thank-you gift to help my brother avoid such suffering. I thought there was nothing wrong with it."

The county magistrate kneaded his forehead and never responded for a long time, but his expression gradually calmed down and he let out a long sigh.

Zhang Xiulou was not wrong. Although this white jade bead was a little cold, the cold light passed by, and the wind seemed to melt like frost and snow, and suddenly felt much more comfortable. In addition, the Lingtai Qingming Festival, the political affairs accumulated many days ago were also transparent and clear. It was no longer as chaotic and drowsy as the trauma when the trauma was deep. This made this county magistrate who had suffered from the trauma for many years rare.

The man stood up, closed the brocade box and smiled slightly, "My brother is willing, but this matter should not be done next time. I do have the intention to rectify the gangs in Fengyou County, but this matter still needs to be discussed for a long time. It will take two or three years later, and it will take several months to do it steadily without rushing."

The words themselves are ordinary, but they fall into Zhang Xiulou's ears, but they are like spring rain and thunder, which is so nice. They will be cleared up in a few months. If it weren't for the tough method, how could they have properly cured the horse gang within such a time, freed up a path for the merchant Zhang family, and controlled all kinds of business. Therefore, they were happy for a moment, stood up and bowed to the ground, but refused to get up for a long time.

The county magistrate laughed and approached, knocking on the back of the head of the Zhang family, "I don't have to take the car account when I came. There are still many people outside the county magistrate's house. They all look at the actions of my official, and they want to put all the charges of corruption and abuse of power on my official's head. If you go out soon after you come out, you may have a lot of rumors and troubles. It's better to ask the car account to go back to the house first, which means that it is excessive drinking. Let's rest in the county magistrate's house for a day, and it's not too late to go back."

The head of the Zhang family left, and the empty hall was in the empty hall, with only four characters written on the plaque with gold hooks and silver strokes, and a bright mirror hanging high.
