Normally at this time, the sky would have dawned long ago, but today, because of the thick fog in the mountains and surrounding the forest, my eyesight was still unable to see beyond a few steps.

Yang Wanfu pushed open the wooden door and walked into the yard surrounded by fences. However, Fan Yifei and several others had gotten up early and were boxing in the yard.

"Boss?" Fan Yifei put away his posture. On his bronze skin, sweat formed a stream and flowed down. "Did you not sleep well last night?"

Of course this is nonsense. Just looking at Yang Wanfu's sleepy eyes with dark circles, you can naturally tell that he did not sleep well.

"We have been here for almost half a year, but the things Erlang told us have still not been completed!" Yang Wanfu exhaled heavily, "How can you sleep?"

"Boss, you can't blame us. Who knew the people here are so cunning?" Fan Yifei sighed. "The business has been negotiated, we have paid the money, and others turn their backs and refuse to pay, what can we do? Here

After all, it’s someone else’s territory.”

Thinking of this, Yang Wanfu felt melancholy.

He really didn't expect that the magistrate of Duxian County was so lacking in the spirit of contract.

No, no, no, this does not mean that there is no spirit of contract, this is simply eating people without spitting out the bones.

Yang Wanfu was ordered to develop Kuizhou Road, and his first stop was Du County, because Xiao Cheng was interested in the location and mineral deposits here.

After Yang Wanfu arrived, he went to the magistrate of Duxian County to discuss the purchase of an iron mine here.

In those places where the dynasty effectively ruled, a county magistrate's seat was extremely difficult to obtain without a Jinshi or a Jinshi background. However, the man Yang Wanfu met could only speak a little bit.

Because this is a county magistrate, whoever has the most local power can be the magistrate of a county or a prefecture.

Moreover, people in these places do not have to bear the taxes and rents of the country.

The common people only need to pay taxes to the local leader.

The local leader is an out-and-out local emperor.

Without paying taxes to the court or doing all kinds of corvee labor, it stands to reason that the people here should live a very free and prosperous life.

Yang Wanfu knew very well how heavy the burden was on the people outside. Just various kinds of corvee labor could sometimes destroy a middle-class family in an instant.

But the people here are still shockingly poor.

Of course, there are some rich people.

For example, the magistrate of Du County and the people around him.

Their wealth and luxury made Yang Wanfu stunned.

Cruel rule, extreme exploitation, human life is like a piece of grass, this is all the news that Yang Wanfu has seen and found out these days.

Speaking of which, Yang Wanfu was deceived by the magistrate here.

He came with a letter of introduction from an official in Qianzhou, for which he spent a hundred dollars. The official was related to the Dushan County Magistrate.

Yang Wanfu's identity is a businessman with a rather small background in Bianliang.

I originally thought that this identity would have a deterrent effect on this small county magistrate, but now it seems that it is of no use.

When we first met, the atmosphere was very friendly.

Yang Wanfu received a warm reception.

Delicious food, beauties, everything is available.

The business went very smoothly. Yang Wanfu used 100,000 yuan and provided 10,000 kilograms of iron to Dushan County every year to obtain the mining rights of an iron mine in Dushan County. This iron mine was originally unique to Dushan County.

The county magistrate, but their mining technology and smelting technology were extremely primitive, which made a group of masters from Tiangong Iron Art who came with Yang Wanfu shake their heads.

Yang Wanfu was deceived by the other party's honest appearance, warm reception, and straightforward attitude. He actually gave away one hundred thousand dollars in one go.

Then, the Dushan County Magistrate turned against him and disowned him.

Not to mention handing over the iron ore to Yang Wanfu, even Yang Wanfu's face disappeared, and then Yang Wanfu was driven out of the stockade by a group of people led by this guy's men.

Zhaizi is Yang Wanfu's most intuitive evaluation of the place where the Dushan County magistrate lives and gives orders.

Of course, the residence of the Dushan County Magistrate is still extremely spectacular and glorious.

After several negotiations, the other party's attitude became worse and worse each time, and finally, he threatened him directly.

As long as I take your money, you are lucky. If you continue to be nagging, Yang Wanfu and others will lose their lives here.

Who is Yang Wanfu?

A man crawling out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood has killed many people in his life. He is the only one who threatens others. Has anyone ever threatened him like this?

I was really furious.

But on other people's territory, there is really nothing you can do.

In the past few months, they have been negotiating continuously, sending people to Qianzhou to find the official who gave the introduction letter, and spending a sum of money hoping that the other party would mediate. What annoyed Yang Wanfu was that the other party accepted the money readily.

But things didn't work out.

All of this made Yang Wanfu realize that the set of rules he knew before were completely unworkable here. If he wanted to get things done, he had to use another set of rules.

Thinking of this, he suddenly laughed again.

No wonder Erlang wants to recruit people like him. If the people here follow the rules, Erlang only needs to send someone who knows how to do business. Where does he need himself?

Since you are allowed to come and be responsible for all aspects of affairs, naturally these places adapt to a different set of rules.

The strong one wins.

Someone else’s territory?

Doesn't the powerful dragon overwhelm the local snake?

This powerful dragon of mine wants to kill a local snake this time!

The Jiangdong family said it well, the so-called strong dragon does not suppress the local snake, that is because the dragon is not strong enough!

"Fan Yifei, how many of our people are there?" Yang Wanfu asked as he took a handful of water from the sink and wiped his face hastily.

"Boss, bring along the masters of Tiangong. We only have less than a hundred people. We can all gather here within three days!" Fan Yifei said.

"Very good!" Yang Wanfu said with a smile: "In the next two days, you have to put these people in place. Don't let anyone know about their existence. Tomorrow, I will make another trip to Dushan Village.

, I give him one last chance."

"Boss, do you want to take action? Can we do this with one manpower?"

Yang Wanfu sneered: "Have you ever seen a wolf hunting a sheep? How many wolves are there and how many sheep are there? In my eyes, these bastards are just a bunch of lambs who don't know whether to live or die. They are too closed-minded. I'm afraid they have never seen tigers and wolves outside in their lives.

Jackals! Even though the tigers and wolves have already arrived, they are still bleating and roaring at the tigers and wolves in protest. Is this not seeking death?"

"Boss, that guy is the magistrate of the imperial court?" Fan Yifei blinked, "If we really do this, can the guy above him be able to hold him down?"

"Kill this magistrate, I will do it myself!" Yang Wanfu said: "This magistrate is not that magistrate. Outside, even if you give me 10,000 courages, I would not dare to kill a magistrate, but here, I will kill it. For Xiao Er

For the young master, I'm afraid it's just a trivial matter. As soon as I fly, call the captains of each team and let's discuss it."

Han Chong, the captain of the Tiangong Iron Art staff, is also the apprentice of Mr. Han. This time he brought ten master craftsmen who are good at smelting iron and casting furnaces to take charge of technical matters.

Yue Teng, leader of the first team of the action team.

Zhang Bin, leader of the second team of the action team.

Fan Yifei, leader of the third team of the action team.

The above people can actually be regarded as armed personnel.

Because guys like Han Chong and others, who have spent half their lives working on blacksmithing, are all big and round, what they lack most is strength.

In this line of work, there are only a few people such as Lu Gui, whose force value is very low. Their main responsibility is to manage the iron mines in the future. What they are good at is making money, not fighting.

"We don't have many people!" Lu Gui was a little worried. Among these people, his voice was the most important except for Yang Wanfu. When setting off, Xiao Cheng had already made clear their identities. "Magistrate of Dushan County

Huang Ze has dominated Dushan for many years, and this is his territory. There are thousands of people living in Dushan Village, and there are hundreds of armed personnel alone. Once a conflict breaks out, I'm afraid we won't get any benefits. This matter

Think about it again! If it doesn’t work, we will reveal the name of the Third Chief of Staff, Academician Xiao. Even if we can’t get the iron ore, it’s still good to get the money back.”

Yang Wanfu is the general person in charge.

Lu Gui is the second deputy.

What he said was naturally very weighty.

"First of all, you must not reveal the name of the Third Secretary." Yang Wanfu shook his head and said: "Shopkeeper Lu, don't forget what kind of business we are doing, iron ore! Guys like Huang Ze can do iron ore, you Lu

It’s expensive, and I, Yang Wanfu, can do it, but why does Academician Xiao want to do it quietly? Don’t you know about the salt and iron franchise?”

"Oh, I forgot this part. I just want to get the money back as a last resort, and Huang Ze has made it clear that he wants to steal our money!" Lu Gui said.

"So there is no need for us to be polite to him!" Yang Wanfu said fiercely: "As for the large number of them, it is not a problem. Shopkeeper Lu, the two of us have been in and out of Dushan Village many times, do you see anything?"

Shopkeeper Lu thought for a while, but couldn't figure it out and could only shake his head.

"Yifei, tell me!" Yang Wanfu looked at Fan Yifei.

"Poor!" Fan Yifei said with a smile: "The vast majority of people are shockingly poor. Secondly, Huang Ze's rule towards the people under his command is very cruel. Outside his mansion, there are two rows of cages.

We have been in and out several times, but the cage has never been empty, and there are always people locked in it. The third point is the extravagance of Huang Ze and his henchmen. Their arrogance and extravagance, to be honest, is beyond our imagination.

.”

"It seems so!" Lu Gui thought for a while and nodded in agreement.
