Chapter 566: Invitation by the magistrate of Guo

There was not much change in Qingyuan County compared to before. Wu Fan just took a few random glances and headed straight to his mansion.

"Hmm? That's Wu Fan?" The master who happened to be out for a walk saw Wu Fan's figure from afar, couldn't help but be slightly stunned. Then, he quickly turned around and headed towards the county government.

"Sir?" When Wu Fan suddenly appeared, the servants in the mansion were slightly stunned, and then quickly saluted.

"Yes." Wu Fan nodded slightly: "Is Sun Liang here?"

"Butler Sun is here, I'll call you now." said the clerk.

Shortly after Wu Fan came to the hall to sit down, Sun Liang and Tang San rushed over.

"I've seen the master." Sun Liang and Tang San also quickly saluted when they saw Wu Fan.

"Yeah." Wu Fan nodded: "Sun Liang, immediately prepare a batch of Cloud Top and Awakening Tea for me. In addition, how many pets there are in the grocery store in the city are all prepared for me. The movement should be fast, and I'm in a hurry."

In Qingyuan County, Sun Liang and others also opened a grocery store, and the things sold were the same as those in Yanyang City. Even the shops here opened earlier. When Wu Fan left the Hermit Village, he also ordered the brewed Yunzhipin and Xingshen Tea to Qingyuan County for sale. Therefore, Wu Fan came back to purchase goods this time, not the Hermit Village, but the Qingyuan County.

"Yes, sir, I'll make arrangements now." Sun Liang responded, turned around and left in a hurry.

After explaining the goods, Wu Fan then looked at Tang San and said, "Did anything happen here and Hermit Village during my absence?"

"It's okay here, but nothing major happened, just in the Hermit Village. County Magistrate Guo had wanted to make someone to break into the back mountain, as if he wanted to capture the pets on the back mountain, but it was not successful." Tang San replied quickly: "County Magistrate Guo may have held a grudge against us because of this, and he obstructed the store business in our county, both openly and secretly. This also led to the good things sold in our grocery store and the reputation is also good, but the business has not improved recently, and it is not too hot."

"Is this happening?" Wu Fan frowned.

"Yes, sir." Tang San replied, and then told the story of the master going to the Hermit Village twice in a row.

"This man surnamed Guo is getting more and more overdoing his work." Wu Fan snorted coldly.

Originally, Wu Fan's principle was to neither get too close to County Magistrate Guo nor offend the other party. Everyone just got along with each other in peace. Now it seems that County Magistrate Guo obviously didn't think so.

The grocery store that Sun Liang runs in the county town has pets for sale. If County Magistrate Guo just likes the pets on the back mountain of Hermit Village, he can buy them from here. However, the other party did not do this. Instead, he asked someone to go to the back mountain of Hermit Village, and most of the reason why he saw the value of this pet and wanted to monopolize it in his hands.

Wu Fan was talking about County Magistrate Guo, and the servants in the mansion came to report that County Magistrate Guo invited Wu Fan to the county government for a discussion.

"How did he know that I'm here?" Wu Fan said in confusion.

Wu Fan came back today but no one said it in advance. Moreover, he had just arrived at this mansion and had not yet had a hot day. County Magistrate Guo actually knew it. The news was really well-informed.

"Tell him, I don't have time." Wu Fan refused directly.

Not to mention what Tang San said just now, Wu Fan had a worse impression of County Magistrate Guo. Even if there was no such incident, Wu Fan did not plan to see County Magistrate Guo. He had limited time to come back this time, so he did not have time to see County Magistrate Guo.

After the clerk went to reply, Wu Fan continued to chat with Tang San and asked about some recent information.

"bump!"

After receiving Wu Fan's answer, the county magistrate Guo and the county magistrate were so angry that he smashed the teacup in his hand to pieces.

"Bastard! Who did he think he was? He actually showed me a trick here? He was just a reckless man. I invited him, that was to give him face, and he dared to reject me?!" County Magistrate Guo said angrily.

In the heart of the magistrate Guo County, although Wu Fan was already a viscount, he never looked down on Wu Fan out of the contempt of the literati for military men, nor did he think that Wu Fan could be compared with him. He had disdained to interact with Wu Fan before, and later he even mistook Wu Fan's credit. All of this shows that he did not take Wu Fan seriously at all.

And now, the person he didn't take seriously, actually rejected his invitation. In the eyes of County Magistrate Guo, it was really too much and too outrageous.

"Sir, why don't I go and try it?" said the master. It's useless to go to the servant, but the master's identity is different after all. He represents the magistrate of County Guo outside. There are not many people in Qingyuan County who don't give him face.

"Okay." said the magistrate Guo: "Don't let your attitude be too low when you leave. There is no need to be too polite to such a reckless man."

County Magistrate Guo obviously still looked down on Wu Fan.

"Yes, sir." The master responded.

Then, the master rushed to the Wu Mansion. When the master arrived at the Wu Mansion, the people arranged by Sun Liang had already loaded almost the goods Wu Fan needed, while Wu Fan stood by and waited. Once the things were packed, he was ready to set off.

"Master Wu." The master greeted Wu Fan when he saw him.

Wu Fan glanced at the master and said lightly: "It's you, what's wrong?"

According to what Tang San just said, the one who led the team to the Hermit Village was this seemingly humble master. If he didn't know what he did in the Hermit Village and his attitude, Wu Fan might have been deceived by his appearance.

"Mr. Wu, my master learned that Mr. Wu came to the city and prepared a little wine and invited Mr. Wu to gather in the mansion." The master said, and his attitude was quite polite.

Wu Fan frowned slightly and said, "Didn't I just say it? I don't have time, next time."

"Mr. Wu!" The master slightly raised his voice: "This is my dedication. What important thing does Lord Wu have? Can't you wait until you finish eating before leaving?"

"Do I have anything to report to you?" Wu Fan said: "I haven't settled the score with you about what happened in the Hermit Village. When I have time, I will go and visit you County Magistrate Guo!"
