Flying letters like snowflakes flew in from all directions, but when they entered Ling Xin'an's study, it was as if nothing had happened. There was no news.

The Jiangzhou government office was bustling with activity at this time. There was an endless stream of people coming to visit for various reasons every day. Ling Xin'an took care of them and asked Shuang'er to register. Those who came to see Ling Xin'an did not see the people they wanted to see, but

We could see the people called Miss Shuang'er who were welcoming her warmly. Some of them had smiles on their faces, but some of them turned around and spread out, saying that Mr. Fuya was arrogant and putting on airs.

The most hotly debated topics among ordinary people these days are those big families that disappeared overnight. Gradually, more and more people know the reasons behind Jiangzhou Prefecture’s actions.

It turns out that Lord Ling was assassinated twice and it was those family members who did it?

No wonder Master Ling did this.

Ordinary people expressed their understanding and emotion one after another. Among them, Wangjiacun was very angry and said that he wanted to kill those members of the big family, a bunch of ungrateful dogs.

There was silence among the rest of the prominent families and merchants. Anyone who was smarter would be wise enough not to discuss it at this moment.

It was at this moment that the prominent families and merchants finally realized that Jiangzhou City had been frightened to death by Ling Xin'an, and no one dared to disobey his will anymore.

The storm continued, and Ling Xin'an's study piled up a mountain of letters. The Qingzhou Mansion Office had already urged ten of them. Ling Xin'an read them, but left them there. Three letters came from the Ling Mansion, one from his nominal father, and one from his father.

His nominal eldest brother, and the other one is his nominal grandfather.

It can be said that three generations of the Ling family each wrote a letter to him. But his father was furious at his behavior. His grandfather asked him why he did it, and his eldest brother asked him if he needed support.

Ling Xin'an also put it aside.

The other four state government officials also wrote letters to express their dissatisfaction and concerns as colleagues.

The Jiangzhou government office was still so quiet. Guo Song, Dou Kai, and Duan Qing were sent to deal with the aftermath, and Lu Fengxian also went out to exercise.

From then on, Lu Fengxian began to step onto the stage. He was no longer just Ling Xin'an's guard, but began to participate in Ling Xin'an's management.

When night fell, a small black falcon suddenly appeared on the window lattice and stood there quietly. No one knew when it came. When it landed on the window lattice, Ling Xin'an

He walked quickly to it, held it in his hands, and placed it in a birdcage.

Ling Xin'an opened the black and gold dragon seal, and there was only one word on the golden letter: memorial.

A smile appeared on the corner of Ling Xin'an's mouth, she walked quickly to the desk and started writing furiously.

An hour later, the black falcon flew out quietly and disappeared into the night sky.

It's another new day.

Jiangzhou City finally regained some of its former atmosphere. Master Ling did not take action against other prominent families and merchants. The area south of the city was also demolished and destroyed by garrison soldiers.

Everyone found that the place was in ruins.

So far, there is no Lefang Gambling House in the south of the city.

Ling Xin'an returned to the Qingzhou government office respectively. The letter said that Jiangzhou City was in ruins and was waiting to be revitalized. Everything the officials did was done for a reason, and then he explained it.

He replied politely and expressed gratitude to Ling Xin'an, his colleague from the other four states.

As for the Ling Mansion, Ling Xin'an replied to his grandfather with a simple sentence: since he has become the government of this place, he must govern this place well.

No other words were said, and the matter was summed up in just a few words.

When the Qingzhou government office received the letter and saw Ling Xin'an saying such a thing so simply and clearly, he was immediately furious and flew out of the Qingzhou government office with a sealed envelope and headed towards Jinling.

"Sir, the list has been sorted out." At the breakfast table, Shuang'er sorted out the wealthy families and merchants who came to give gifts during this period by category, and showed it to Ling Xin'an today.

"Shuang'er, which of these people do you think are worthy of cooperation? Which of them are just afraid that one day I will raise a sword over their heads."

"Sir, we have already circled them." After that, he pointed to the marked ones inside and replied.

"Yes." Ling Xin'an nodded, then took out two pieces of white paper from his sleeve and said, "Shuang'er, this is your good book."

Hearing this, Shuang'er and Xi'er opened their eyes wide, then fell to their knees with a thud and cried: "Sir, do you no longer want this slave? Do you want to drive this slave away?"

Lu Fengxian and Sun Wu were equally shocked, shouting "You Tiao" and looking at Ling Xin'an in disbelief.

"Sir?" Sun Wu said slowly.

Ling Xin'an laughed: "Why are you two kneeling? Get up and listen to what I have to say first."

Hearing this, Shuang'er and Xi'er stood up, their eyes slightly red, with tears still remaining in the corners of their eyes.

"I'm removing you from your slave status because from now on you two are no longer my maids, but my shopkeepers."

"Shopkeeper?" Hearing this, everyone looked at Ling Xin'an and said in unison.

"Yeah." Ling Xin'an nodded, and then told her plan.

After Ling Xin'an finished speaking briefly, Shuang'er and Xi'er couldn't help but beam with joy, and they all became excited.

"Sir, do you think we will do the business in the future? But we won't do it." Shuang'er said worriedly.

"You silly girl, don't you still have me?" Ling Xin'an said with a smile.

"But?" Shuang'er hesitated to speak.

"Miss Shuang'er." It was Lu Fengxian who spoke. He was the first to understand Ling Xin'an's intention: "Your Majesty's meaning is very simple. As an official of the imperial court, you are not allowed to do business. You two have been redeemed as good members. That is

If you go to help the Lord do business, you are the shopkeeper and the boss on the surface, and behind the scenes, the Lord is doing business. In this way, the Lord can do business without violating the laws of the court. Don't you know? Everything that the Lord can buy can be bought in Jiangzhou.

The city was like an earthquake."

Hearing this, Shuang'er completely woke up. She was originally a beautiful and intelligent person, and she was just in a state of excitement. Now she understood, and her eyes suddenly turned red again.

"What's going on?"

Shuang'er and Xi'er bowed together again: "Your Majesty is very kind to me, and I will certainly be able to do what I ask you to do well."

Ling Xin'an smiled and said: "Don't call me adults anymore, just call me young master."

"Yes, Master."

"Because you were sold into the Ling Mansion since you were young and don't have a last name. From tomorrow on, you will be called Ling Shuang, Ling Xue, Han Shuang Bing Xue."

"Yes, Master." Ling Shuang and Ling Xue stood up and prostrated again.

"Call Xia Xiaoyu over." Ling Xin'an said.

Soon, Xia Xiaoyu came to the main hall. Within a few months, Xia Xiaoyu had grown into a graceful girl. Her water lotus looked like a snow lotus from a distance. Her elegant and simple clothes could emanate from her body.

A fairy-like feeling.

Her appearance was even more beautiful than Ling Shuang and Ling Xue. She was so dazzling that Ling Xin'an didn't even know where she found Ling Shuang.

"Sir, Miss Shuang'er." Xia Xiaoyu saluted.

Ling Xin'an looked at Xia Xiaoyu in front of her, feeling a little distracted.

"Xiaoyu, from now on Shuang'er and Xi'er will be renamed Lingshuang and Lingxue, Hanshuang Bingxue." Ling Xin'an said.

"They will do other things. You will learn more from Shuang'er in the future, and the government will slowly hand it over to you."

Hearing this, Xia Xiaoyu flashed her dark and bright eyes, looking at Ling Xin'an and then at Ling Shuang, with an incredible look on her face, and her little mouth opened slightly.

"So, starting from tonight, there will be an extra set of dishes and chopsticks here."

"Thank you, sir." No matter how cool Xia Xiaoyu was in front of outsiders, she couldn't help but be excited at this moment. She secretly forgot to take a look at Ling Xin'an under her beautiful eyes.

"Call Xiao Zhang over."

Soon, Xiao Zhang came to the main hall with a simple and honest smile. Looking at his round face, Ling Xin'an couldn't help but laugh.

Ling Shuang, on the other hand, had a really cold look on his face. He looked at Ling Xin'an, Sun Wu and others looking at him with smiles on their faces, and then at Ling Shuang. Xiao Zhang touched his head, but he didn't know what was going on. Compared to Ling Shuang,

He was even more afraid of the latter.

"Xiao Zhang." Ling Xin'an smiled.

"Hey, sir." Xiao Zhang replied.

Everyone burst out laughing. Looking at Xiao Zhang's expression, Ling Xin'an couldn't help but laugh.

"Don't be nervous. I asked you to come here because I have something for you to do."

"Sir, what's the matter? Tell me."

"What if you were in charge of a restaurant?"

Hearing this, Xiao Zhang's eyes widened immediately, and he couldn't recover for a long time: "Sir, are you trying to drive Xiao Zhang away?"

"No, it's something I have to do according to my arrangements. This is your good status." After saying that, Ling Xin'an took out a certificate of good status from his sleeve.

Looking at the piece of letter paper, Xiao Zhang said: "Sir, I don't want to leave you, my lord."

Hearing this, Ling Xin'an couldn't help but nodded secretly: "Xiao Zhang, I'm not only asking you to open a restaurant in Jiangzhou City, but in the future you will have to open restaurants throughout the entire Zhou Dynasty. Not only you, but also Miss Shuang'er and Xue'er.

in this way."

After speaking, Ling Xin'an briefly explained again.

After listening to Ling Xin'an's words, Xiao Zhang was stunned and couldn't help but swallowed his saliva and said: "Sir, what you said is what I want to do in the future? A five-star restaurant? Five-star gourmet food?"

"Of course, yes." Ling Xin'an nodded.

"Then Sir, I've done it, but after I leave, who will prepare food for you in the kitchen?"

"Don't worry, it won't happen so soon. You have to train an apprentice in the future, otherwise I will have to capture you and bring you back to make food."

"Hey, that means adults like small craftsmanship."

"Dese!" Ling Shuang sneered from the side.

Xiao Zhang, who was excited, immediately restrained himself.

Over breakfast, everyone learned about Ling Xin'an's euphemistically named first five-year plan, and they were both happy and looking forward to it.

Here, Ling Xin'an gave them too many surprises, not to mention that the food on the table was something they had never seen before, and there were also those hidden things in the backyard that would cause crazy buying if you took them out casually.

In the eyes of outsiders, Ling Xin'an may be a high-ranking official, or a cruel butcher who makes people fear, but in the eyes of these people, he is a man worth following.
