Master Hu Ershi also tasted the taste. This little magistrate did not come to borrow rice from him, it was obvious that the visitors were not good.

Mr. Hu Er didn't know where the magistrate was, so he responded with a gloomy face: "Housing goods? I have been studying in the Imperial College in Nanjing for several years. This is a crime. My Hu family dare not be a crime.

!”

"Master Hu Er, since you know that hoarding the king's laws is angering, then you don't know that the laws are breaking the law!" Chen Wude was not afraid at all, and seemed to be serious about it.

Mr. Hu was extremely angry and laughed, and could not bear it, pointed at Chen Wude's nose and cursed: "Just because of you, a seventh-rank county magistrate, is worthy of telling the law to my Hu family? You should know whether you are accused of my Hu family.

It’s just a matter of changing your mind.”

This sound is not loud, but it has an incomparable confidence and arrogance.

Yes, the Hu family in Chuzhou was the original family of Hu Song, the Minister of Personnel of the Ministry of Personnel. Any local official with a little brain dared not provoke such a heavenly official who holds the life and death of all officials.

Just imagine, a Tianguan family that can determine your personal honor and disgrace and future. If you don’t try to flatter and seek promotion, you come to warn others. What is this not seeking death?

But, such an ignorant county magistrate came to the Wu Mansion to order the Wu family to lower the rice price, and even blamed him for "hoarding goods".

The housekeeper's anger at Master Hu Er was expected, but he looked at Chen Wude with pity, which was simply a hit on the stone with an egg.

"Master Hu Er, I have already brought the words! If you don't let the four big rice prices fall to the regular price before noon tomorrow, then don't blame me for being ruthless and say goodbye!" Chen Wude looked at him.

The other party refused to compromise, and even gave a last ultimatum, he turned around and left.

If he had a choice, he naturally did not want to provoke this Tianguan Family that controlled his future.

It just concerns the livelihood of the people in the city. Countless people sell their fields because of eating high-priced rice, but he has to do it tough. What's more, he hopes to eliminate such behavior through his actions.

As the saying goes: A gentleman loves money and gets money. Even if he gets a fortune from the Hu family, he will be despised and lose the face of a Tianguan family.

Mr. Hu Er looked at the background where Chen Wude left, but spitted a sputum and cursed: "Zhu Zi, I don't know what to fear!"

"Second Master, how do we deal with it now?" The butler looked at Chen Wude walking away and immediately asked.

There was no worry on Mr. Hu'er's face, and he immediately gritted his teeth and said, "I will immediately write a letter to my brother in the capital and ask him to transfer this naughty green to the southwest. The more remote it is, the better!

”

It is natural that the dignified Heavenly Official wants to punish an insignificant magistrate without any effort, but Chuzhou is not close to the capital after all, and it will undoubtedly take some time to complete this dispatch.

But on that day, a letter was sent to the capital, and Chen Wude's official career was also cast a shadow.

When I came to the county yard, a yamen that seemed outdated.

It’s not that Chen Wude is honest, but that it is a tradition that officials do not build yamen. He is very frugal, nor is he a person who can break this tradition, so he retains the old age of this county yamen.

However, in the back garden, the first few people revealed signs of corruption. The environment here seems to be quite interesting, giving people a different feeling of heaven.

In the back flower courtyard, there is a small lake full of lotus flowers, and there is a small pavilion by the lake. The roof of the pavilion blocks the afternoon sun, making it a little shade here.

A woman in colorful clothes was sitting on a chair, holding a fishing rod in her hand. When ripples rippled on the lake surface, a jade hand raised the rod and fished a greedy fish.

stand up.

The woman looks in her twenties, her face is not very beautiful, but her facial features are pretty, and she has a shallow dimples when she smiles, which is quite cute.

Chen Wude came from there, and when he saw his wife smiling so brightly, a rare smile appeared on his face. He only smiled faintly, but he did smile.

Many people outside have always thought that the magistrate would not laugh, but they were actually wrong.

When the woman saw Chen Wude, she put down the fishing rod and handed the fish directly to the maid. Then she said to Chen Wude who was walking towards her: "My husband, I heard from the butler, you have arrived at the Hu Mansion just now?"

”

Chen Wude did not hide from his wife and immediately told him everything.

"My husband, do you really want to do this?" The woman frowned slightly, and said worriedly.

Chen Wude looked into the woman's eyes and said seriously: "If I don't do this, I will feel guilty about the people and I will also let down my life's learning!"

"You can actually not do this, and the rice and grain will be shipped to you soon!" The woman's eyes were still worried, but she said seriously.

Chen Wude nodded gently and said, "I want to solve this stubborn disease in Laian County from the root! If I compromise so suddenly, what will happen next time? I hope that Laian County under my rule is also managed by my mentor.

Leizhou and Guangzhou are like that. Even after leaving for many years, the people there continue to live and work in peace and prosperity!”

At the end of the day, a ray of light shines in his eyes, which also demonstrates his determination to do things.

The woman has been married with Chen Wude for many years. She knew that her husband was a good official who really wanted to rule the people and had the determination to do something, so she went up to hug him.

Chen Wude looked down at the person in his arms who could not be separated, but hugged her and said softly: "If something happens to me, you will set off and return to Guangzhou immediately!"

"Since I have chosen to follow you, I will not go anywhere! If you are guilty of going to Beijing, then I will go to the capital to argue for you, and your teacher will definitely not sit idly by!" The woman hugged her tightly.

Chen Wudedao.

Chen Wude sighed again, but hugged the woman tightly.

The next day, at noon, there was a crowd of people in front of Wu's rice shop. A large group of people lined up in an orderly manner to buy grain, but when they saw the price on the wooden sign, their eyebrows couldn't help but frown deeply.

Chen Wude's threat seemed to have some effect, not because the rice price was reduced, but because Mr. Hu, who was staying in his hometown, came here to stay and counted the banknotes excitedly.

The rice that was originally only three or four cents per stone is sold directly for three or four cents per stone, so the profit here is naturally very generous.

"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!"

A group of yamen runners suddenly appeared here, and Chen Wude, who was wearing the seventh-rank official uniform, arrived as scheduled, but he set his eyes on Mr. Hu who was excited to count silver.
Chapter completed!
