On the way to the Yangzhou government office, Lin Tailai thought for a while. Based on his understanding of bureaucratic thinking, Magistrate Wu might have the intention of "calming down the troubles."
But how is this possible? If we just settle the matter now, wouldn’t it be in vain?
When the situation has just gained the upper hand and no actual benefits have been obtained, it will be a big loss if you promise to settle the matter.
Therefore, I cannot accept mediation, and I even try to find ways to disrupt the mediation.
But how to find a reason to cause trouble and make others have nothing to say is also a technical job.
After arriving at the government office, Lin Daguan asked dozens of his subordinates to stand outside the gate of the government office. He himself was invited into the back hall with only the guardians on his left and right.
He stood at the door and looked inside the house to make sure that there was already someone inside and there would be no chance of entering by mistake, and then he stepped in.
In addition to Magistrate Wu who was in charge, there was also a man in his thirties next to him, the young and powerful Zheng Zhiyan.
This was the first time Lin Daguan met Zheng Yuanwai, the richest man in Yangzhou, but he didn't take it seriously.
Magistrate Wu said: "I heard that there was some misunderstanding between the two of you, so I invited you over to resolve the misunderstanding together."
Zheng Yuanwai has not expressed his position, but Lin Daguan directly denied it and said: "There is no misunderstanding."
Magistrate Wu asked: "If there was no misunderstanding, how could so many things happen?"
Lin Tailai replied: "The things Zheng and her slaves did, whether they were fighting for love, intercepting me, Jieyuan, who was rushing to take the exam, or beating up the folks in Wu County in the street, they were all done deliberately and deliberately.
, is there any misunderstanding?”
When Magistrate Wu heard this, he immediately understood that Lin Jieyuan meant that he would never accept mediation.
This time it became more troublesome, and Magistrate Wu was in a dilemma.
On the one hand, he has made it clear that he does not have the ability to solve problems smoothly and without injury.
But on the other hand, Zheng Yuanwai must come forward and use his power to do something to block or delay Lin Tailai. It is not easy for him to refute Zheng Yuanwai's face.
Zheng Yuanwai was not a member of the officialdom. He was not aware of many details of what happened during this period, and his understanding of the internal operating rules of the Yamen was not deep enough.
But Magistrate Wu was deeply touched. For example, the roads leading to the five hundred people were all covered with security guards from the governor of Jiangnan.
This shows that the governor is willing to cover up for this, even if it reaches the sky, he can bear it. Can ordinary powerful people have this ability?
Organizing an expedition of 500 people in the name of recruiting and dispatching officials from the county government. How much influence does this have on the local government?
Not only do the two factions, black and white, have to take over, but they also have to be at the level of dominance.
The protagonist of the recently popular book "Jin Ping Mei", Ximen Daguan, is far worse than this.
Magistrate Wu didn't know about the five hundred people before, but since he found out about it yesterday, the more he thinks about it, the more unfathomable it becomes.
Anyway, in order to protect Mingzhe's safety, I'm a little reluctant to involve myself in it.
After thinking for a while, Magistrate Wu spoke sarcastically: "Then you mobilized hundreds of people to beat up more than a hundred Zheng family servants on the street. The impact was very bad and was it deliberate?"
Official Lin couldn't help but sarcastically said: "They relied on the strength of their numbers, so they were not surprised when they intercepted me, Jieyuan;
Don't you be surprised when they brutally beat the folks in Wuxian County;
We sent people to report to the Yamen, don't you be surprised.
Finally, when we Wuxian folks couldn't bear it anymore and started to fight back against the gangsters, you started to be inexplicably surprised?"
Magistrate Wu: "."
I have to admit, listening to Lin Tailai's words is really irritating.
After thinking for a moment, Magistrate Wu scolded: "Lin Tailai! I am kind enough to mediate the conflict for you, don't be ignorant of the good people's hearts!"
Lin Tailai looked at Magistrate Wu in surprise. You keep talking about mediation, but what did you mediate? What are the conditions you need to put forward?
Gradually he came to a realization, and Lin Tailai suddenly said: "I heard that the prefect is from Wujiang County, Suzhou Prefecture, and now the folks from Wujiang County, Suzhou Prefecture, have come to your jurisdiction.
Why don't you uphold justice for your fellow villagers, but instead shield the evildoers?
Aren't you afraid of being poked in the back by fellow villagers if you don't miss your hometown so much?"
The brainwaves matched! Magistrate Wu sneered a few times in a tacit understanding, "Speaking of nostalgia? Do you, Lin Tailai, know how to write the word nostalgia?"
Lin Tailai said doubtfully: "What's wrong with me?"
Magistrate Wu shouted: "The mouth of the ancient Sanjiang River is clearly within the territory of our Wujiang County, but you forcefully took it to Guo County, the capital of Fucheng!
Just what you, Lin Tai, have done, do you expect us Wujiang people to tell you any nostalgia?"
Lin Tailai was stunned. Magistrate Wu was also very good at finding angles to quarrel.
When helping Yuan Zhixian of Changzhou County to carry out political achievement projects, he marked the ancient Sanjiangkou within the territory of Changzhou County, which indeed caused some disputes with Wujiang County.
Immediately, Lin Daguan argued: "As for the issue of Gu Sanjiangkou, it is an internal issue of Suzhou Prefecture.
Now in other places, we should put aside internal disputes and keep dealing with the outside world."
Magistrate Wu scolded: "After all, it makes sense for you, Lin Tai, to be the one on both sides!
When you want to take advantage, you say it's an internal dispute; when you need support, you say you want to talk about nostalgia, which is ridiculous."
Magistrate Wu and Lin Jieyuan just started arguing with each other.
Zheng Yuanwai sat on the edge and didn't even have a chance to speak. He could only watch the other two people arguing.
After watching it for a while, Zheng Yuanwai secretly laughed a few times.
This Lin Tailai was really young and energetic. He didn't know what restraint meant, and he actually got into a quarrel with the prefect.
Magistrate Wu is just worried too much and doesn't want to lose control, so he acts cautiously. If he really angers Magistrate Wu, hundreds of you will suffer.
But then, it seemed that the person who was angered first was Lin Tailai, "When I return to Suzhou City next time, I must carefully publicize Yangzhou Governor Wu's deeds of favoring outsiders in Suzhou!"
Magistrate Wu said unceremoniously: "If you are upright, you are not afraid of slanted shadows. You can arrange it as you like!"
I have nothing to say to people like you if you don't want to talk about it!"
After finishing speaking, Magistrate Wu walked away angrily.
Officer Zheng looked at Magistrate Wu's back. Is this the end of mediation today? It's mediation, but it seems like there is nothing.
Something feels wrong, but I can't place it.
When they reached the gate of the government office, Zheng Yuanwai vaguely felt that Magistrate Wu seemed to be deliberately trying to quarrel with Lin Tailai.
The content of the quarrel was also completely off topic and had nothing to do with the current matter.
"These two bastards!" Zheng Yuanwai was stunned for a moment and then suddenly yelled.
He finally realized that Magistrate Wu had no intention of using his power to mediate!
The quarrel just now was actually Wu Zhifu and Lin Tailai teaming up to make a show to fool him, the other party involved!
Magistrate Wu doesn't want to be harmed, and Lin Tailai doesn't want to stop now!
My investment in government offices in recent years has really been a waste of money!
When you are in need, call them brothers and sisters! When you are afraid of getting involved in trouble, just push them away!
But it doesn’t matter, there is also the governor of Fengyang in Jiangbei! As long as we can survive until the governor comes, everything will be fine!
Please give me a guaranteed monthly pass!! Do you still have it in your pocket?
