"What's wrong? How many people from the Elders' Association ignored you? Do you still have to choose yourself?" In the room, Liu Guojian looked like a ghost, and then he turned his head and pointed outside the door and said, "I brought Ou Xingsun. Are you still doing something about you?"

It turned out that Fang Bingsheng and Liu Guojian had dinner today and talked about the changes in the election. The more they talked about, Liu Guojian became more and more intimate. Later, he turned to pay for Fang Bingsheng's wine, but he refused to let Fang Bingsheng pay for it.

Because the establishment of the Democratic Party of the Song Dynasty, the Longchuan Opium people were reborn, and were no longer just the Opium Party, but a part of the awesome elites of the Song Dynasty. They were not underground workers, but organized people. In the eyes of Liu Guojian, who had already attached great importance to elections, the situation naturally rose.

Fang Bingsheng has already said that the Democratic tycoons in the capital attach great importance to the Longchuan election: give whatever they want! He has invited a luxurious Western circus to Longchuan as the opening remarks of the election. This coke ruined Liu Guojian. After all, when this circus comes, it will definitely cause a sensation in all corners of the countryside, making him look shining. This is to benefit the countryside and can greatly earn official reputation;

Moreover, the Democratic Party wants to fill the major newspapers of the Song Dynasty. Should Longchuan become famous even if he doesn't? As the county magistrate and mayor on duty, wouldn't Liu Guojian also have a lot of opportunities to show his face in front of the whole country?

Being able to show your face nationwide in major newspapers is one of the ways to get promoted!

Because the emperor and all officials of the court read newspapers and attached great importance to newspaper news!

Not only that, Fang Bingsheng also said that Yi Cheng, the think tank master under the boss of Zhong Jialiang, also heard that he was Liu Guojian. Maybe one day, the high-ranking officials in the court who had friendship with the Opium Party gave Liu Guojian a telegram or private message, and everyone made friends together - this is a way of expression for the Democratic Party to use the relationship between Liu Guojian's upper-level officials. Liu Guojian's mountain or mountain-related leader would be "communicated", and he would be crushed to death at the first level of the senior official, or a good opportunity to curry favor with the superiors - Liu Guojian rubbed his fat black hands while listening, with an excited expression on his face.

So after Fang Bingsheng finished speaking, Liu Guojian took Fang Bingsheng's hand and talked to his brother intimately, patting his chest and saying, "Anything is related to the election, tell me! I will do it for you at all costs!"

Fang Bingsheng was not polite and said directly: "I have something to ask my brother for help."

"Tell me! Friends of the Democratic Party!" Liu Guojian burst into laughter.

Fang Bingsheng helped his glasses and said, "Weng Quanguang from Longchuantang has repeatedly asked me to see me. It seems that he had a grudge against our boss in the past, but now he wants to make trouble. I heard that he is a local gang and a gangster leader. How can such a person participate in the election? He even threatens me! Is there a way for his brother?"

"He threatened you? Is there any real evidence?" Liu Guojian was stunned and asked quickly.

Fang Bingsheng sneered and said, "How could he be so cunning to leave you real evidence? It's just that elections are an important policy for our country to give birth to a son. What if he makes trouble for our Democratic Party? Can the elder brother beat him in advance? What should he do? Don't just want to make rat shit jump in if you want to make rat shit."

Liu Guojian thought about it and understood what Fang Bingsheng meant: It is unlikely that Weng Quanguang threatened Fang Bingsheng; now Fang Bingsheng wanted to give Weng Quanguang a blow to avoid this lawless boy coming out as a messing stick.

Considering Fang Bingsheng's identity and the benefits that may bring to his career, and the bribes he has received, and comparing the difficulty of dealing with Weng Quanguang, Liu Guojian nodded and said, "Yes, there are always some scum hooligans in every place, just like rats and cockroaches. They can't be burned clean and can't be swept away. I know Weng Quanguang, and everyone knows what he does. Longchuan knows. I will warn him well, don't cause trouble for the Democratic Party casually. Can he be a weasel-like thing to provoke a lion and a tiger?"

"Do you have any capable people? If he really makes trouble, if something happens to the election, such as beating someone or bleeding, then Datian will listen. Is there any specific way to deal with him?" Although Liu Guojian had agreed to verbally warn Weng Quanguang, Fang Bingsheng was still unwilling to let go. He wanted to get something that could really repair him and convince him when Weng Quanguang was disobedient.

Liu Guojian thought about it: He knew that Xi Shengmo had a lot of evidence of Weng Quanguang and his crimes in the Public Security Bureau, but he was suppressed by their director; if Weng Quanguang was used, it would be best to use Xi Shengmo; but Xi Shengmo himself was very annoying and disobedient, and almost created a cult for him. As a result, he forced him not to investigate the case casually, so he went to protect Fang Bingsheng;

In addition, there is also an Inspector Ou Xingsun, who is also a member of the Public Security Bureau. He is familiar with the local grass and trees, and has rich experience. This person is very well-behaved and versatile, so he has a good relationship with the Longchuantang gang. However, this person is greedy for money and can do anything if he gives him some money. With his ability, repairing Weng Quanguang may not be enough, but it is enough to seal off several dens in Longchuantang or catch a group of his generals, so that Weng Quanguang would cry out for his parents' bleeding and catch people.

Thinking of this, Liu Guojian nodded and said, "I will get to know a capable detective in the bureau in the afternoon. You can have a good exchange. Anyway, Weng Quanguang is just a dirty mouse. Since he is on my territory, I have the final say on what he wants to do."

Fang Bingsheng was overjoyed and immediately drank with Liu Guojian.

In other words, at noon, Fang Bingsheng consciously handled the five members of the Presbyterian Church and Weng Quanguang, and there was still an old scholar in the bookstore. There was no need for that person to pay attention to him, so he was in a good mood.

But when Liu Guojian brought Ou Xingsun to the banquet in the afternoon, he heard that in addition to Fan Linhui and Qi Yunlu, one was afraid of trouble and the other was passerby, he actually refused to surrender to the Democratic Party without fighting and still wanted to elect itself.

===========================================

In the inner hall, Fang Bingsheng held the others away, stood in front of Zhong Erzai's portrait with his arms in his arms, looked at Liu Guojian, and suddenly asked, "Brother, can you get rid of Zhang Qijie and Li Guangxi?"

"What? What did you say?" Liu Guojian was startled, stunned for a moment, and asked in surprise: "What do you mean?"

Fang Bingsheng made a beating with his fist and said, "It's just to repair them hard and use the power of the county magistrate in your hands."

"You are kidding! These three people are almost the strongest leaders in the business world. I'll do them? Who will pay taxes? How can you report to the court about the progress of the Xixue factory in our city?" Liu Guojian waved quickly.

After saying that, he spread his hands and shouted, "Brother Fang, you are rich, powerful, and have a fight. What if you let the country bumpkins in the city make trouble for themselves? I think even if they choose by themselves, they will not be any threat to you, just a clown."

Fang Bingsheng held his arms and cut the railway track: "No! My purpose this time is to get all four people from our party. If they let them do it themselves, what if one of them is squeezed down? How can we explain to Boss Zhong and Boss Weng? Since we are rich and powerful, we are powerful, and we have formed a party to fight, why compete with the country bumpkins? Isn't this a fool?"

Liu Guojian stared at Fang Bingsheng, swallowed a few mouthfuls, opened his mouth but didn't say anything: The railway gangster who used to bully people with power and was so mean and only allowed him to take advantage of others and not be able to suffer a small loss. Secretary Kang Fang is back!

But now, Liu Guojian, was not the court who was fighting side by side with Secretary Fang, who sent railway supervision to the outside world, but became a city-wide parent official. He didn't want to cut his own flesh and give Fang Bing a drink.

Fang Bingsheng was also silent for a while, and he also looked at Liu Guojian. The two of them looked at each other silently, as if they turned into a spear and a shield, thinking about how the other party would act and how they would protect their own interests.

"Brother Liu, you have been the mayor of Longchuan for almost three years, right?" Fang Bingsheng spoke, and he said leisurely.

"Haha, it's just two and a half years, two years of county magistrate, and half a year of mayor." Liu Guojian replied with the same meaningful smile.

Fang Bingsheng waved his hand and said, "Brother, we all know that you are smart and capable, and you can summarize the main points and lead the overall situation. Look at you, it takes two years to turn this broken city into the top ten model small cities of the Song Dynasty. You have a great future. You can't want to live your old official career in Longchuan, right?"

Liu Guojian raised his head and smiled, "Of course it's certain. I am a Fujian native, like a traveler in the Song Dynasty. I don't know where I will eventually go. As an official in a foreign land, I always want to benefit the people wherever I go, haha."

Fang Bingsheng sneered and said, "Brother, I think your Longchuan has reached its peak, so I can only open the train by relying on the railway. It is finally a small place with limited development and it is impossible to compete with Ganzhou in the north and Huizhou in the south. I guess with your intelligence, you must have been looking for the next step to get to the next level. People should go to the higher ground."

"That's sure." Liu Guojian laughed, then raised his eyebrows and said, "But, Brother Fang, you can't make it difficult for me to do it."

Fang Bingsheng smiled and said, "How could I make it difficult for my elder brother to do it? I just discussed it with my elder brother."

He continued: "Actually, when I was dating Zhang Qijie and others, I heard them complain about you, saying that an official often extorted them and forced them to take advantage of them, and also mocked you for not doing your job properly and gathering gambling every day."

Liu Guojian was angry. What Fang Bingsheng said could not be wrong. He knew that some local snakes were not satisfied with him, but isn’t this nonsense? I have made such a great contribution to Longchuan. Without me, there is no such delicious food and drink as you are now. Isn’t this “pick up the bowl, eat meat, put down the chopsticks to curse”? An ungrateful unruly person!

But now Liu Guojian did not intend to believe Fang Bingsheng's complaint, because everyone understood why he said these words now. Liu Guojian snorted coldly and said, "You are not afraid of being a silly person. This is all the troublemakers who are catching up with the silence..."

However, Fang Bingsheng interrupted him. Fang Bingsheng supported his glasses, as if his eyes were emerging from the water of the lenses. He looked at Liu Guojian sincerely and said, "Brother, I am not saying bad things about others. I am talking about this Longchuan, with limited wealth. You have made great contributions to the development of Longchuan, but the water here is too shallow, and even if you catch fish, you can't catch much. As the saying goes, "Three years of Qing Dynasty prefect, 100,000 snowflakes and silver. This Longchuan is a thin and shortage. How many years can you make 100,000? You are a famous and capable official in the court. With this good reputation, you should hurry up and leave."

This is reasonable. In addition to the salary of the court, Liu Guojian himself had only saved ten thousand oceans in Longchuan for three years. After all, a while ago, he was finally promoted to county magistrate. He was desperately building roads, building houses, encouraging industry and commerce, and appeased farmers. He never thought that he was greedy. He was not greedy, because he was too poor. Later, when the railway came, his life was a little better, and there was more black and gray gold, but the county was indeed too small, and the residents were divided by several churches in the city. You were not easy to define who was fat sheep, because they were chaotic and formed party members, and they dared to repair you in newspapers, and dared to sue you in Huizhou. As for the rich Western factories, this is his own political achievements, and it is not easy to start a big kill. Moreover, they are all from foreign churches, so they can only take some of them, which is very boring;

So after three years of work, he was still quite poor. He wanted to leave, and he had already moved in the court. Because the backstage of Xiaodao Legion was cut off by the emperor, he could only walk the road in the court's transportation route and wanted to go to the big city where Jiangxi planned to build railways and become a real power official.

Seeing that Liu Guojian stopped talking, Fang Bingsheng continued, "Brother, the iron-clad soldiers are fighting. The Bible also says: I am excited by the passing by, and the management is not in my own competition. It seems that people will catch a dog's ear. You will not live a life in Longchuan and settle down. Are they just passers-by? If you have nothing to do with you, why do you have to protect them? You have done enough to them. Not only do they not thank you, but they also say sarcastic words everywhere. Do you have anything to do? Why do you have to work hard with me this time. Let's start the Longchuan election, and we will be the letter of vote you handed over to the Democratic Party and establish a good relationship with Boss Zhong. Besides, you are originally from the Transport Department. Are you a family with our railway company? We also know many officials of the Transport Department. At that time, we will do a good job in the capital and send you a promotion to Jiangxi City that wants to build railways. Aren't we all good for each other?"

After saying that, Fang Bingsheng asked Liu Guojian again: "Mr. Yi Cheng said he wanted to contact our ministers with good relations in the court to get to know you. Have you notified you?"

"Not yet." Liu Guojian said cleanly, but there was nothing else, because he was still calculating his own gains and losses in his stomach. He just listened to the words of the "iron black monkey" in front of him and worked for him. Are you a fool?

Fang Bingsheng pursed his lips slightly, expressed a kind of perseverance and patience, and then said, "Just wait for these two days." As he said that, he saw that Liu Guojian had no reaction and knew that the other party had not been persuaded yet.

He suddenly smiled and continued, "Brother, I am not asking you to conquer Zhang Qijie, Li Guangxi and Wang Yu's family to raid the family. We are the people, not to raid the family, but to scare the three of them. I am even happy to give them money in exchange for favors. But the three of them are too rural and can't figure out the key points of the matter, thinking that the money I give is not as profit as my own burning money, and they are stupid. I just need you to help me and scare me. When they accept it, I will still give the money to comfort me. I will not eat the fruit myself and leave you as an enemy. I am a businessman, and I don't do business like this, especially with old friends and brothers like you, you know this."

What Fang Bingsheng said touched Liu Guojian, the reason was very simple: the profits did not change, but he had a smaller risk.

"Ahem, after all, the emperor's newspaper has been published, and there are also high officials who come to Longchuan to preside over the election. The court seems to be very determined," Liu Guojian said with a look of distress: "I am not very convenient for me to attack the candidates. If something happens, it will go directly to the heavens."

Fang Bingsheng walked over and grabbed Liu Guojian's arm with helpless expression and shouted: "Brother, why did something happen? I just wanted to deal with three rural blokes in these seven days before next Monday. This is before the election! And you are a capable official. Since the court attaches importance to it, don't you share the worries for the court?"

"For example, isn't there a candidate for fortune telling false reports? You can associate Zhang Qijie and the others with fortune telling, that is, before the election, especially if there are any illegal matters, confirm again! If Zhang Qijie is caught, I will negotiate with them. If there will be no accident, I will say that the qualifications for fortune telling are inconsistent, and cancel it in advance." Fang Bingsheng gave advice for Liu Guojian.

"No, I've been reported to the imperial newspaper, it's not easy to cancel it. Even fortune tellers cannot be cancelled." Liu Guojian shook his head and said.

"It's okay. It's okay." Fang Bingsheng let go of Liu Guojian and took a step back and said, "I understand, brother, I can't do anything. I even planned to ignore Longchuan and go back to the capital. I didn't know that the powerful people in the capital had formed a party, and the burden was on me."

"But I ask my brother to think twice about whether he can help me? You know that I am very safe. And it's not about using you as a pioneer and a suicide squad. I just want us to deal with three people. When needed, you can use the mayor's honor to make a big move. It's very safe." Fang Bingsheng said, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "If you deal with three people before the election, I will give you another 500-year hard work fee!"

"Let me go back and think about it." Liu Guojian thought for a while, then turned around and left. Fang Bingsheng sent him out. In the front yard, he heard Liu Guojian's anxious question come from the car door as soon as Liu Guojian's secretary followed his uncle into the car. "The Beijing telegram has to be waiting. It's very important, it may be a private telegram."

Knowing that Liu Guojian was moved, Fang Bingsheng also called Zhong Erzai and said to him: "You go to Longchuan Railway Station immediately and find stationmaster Lu, and say it's what I mean, send an urgent telegram to the main station and ask them to convey to Mr. Yi Cheng: 'Please help him speed up Liu'. The railway telegram is an internal telegram, and the transmission speed is faster than that of civilian telegrams. You go immediately."

After Zhong Erzai nodded, he turned around and took a step before he could take a step. Li Meng had already run over and whispered: "Weng Quanguang is here, he came by himself."
