"Who would have thought that Yibo Tower is really not afraid of the government!"
Lowering her head, Zhou Yuqing muttered softly.
"More than just not afraid... I feel that the governor Shen Jin also has an inexplicable relationship with Yi Bo Lou. Today he speaks for Yi Bo Lou everywhere, which makes me angry!"
Bang!
Xu Ning slapped the table hard.
I originally planned to get along well with my colleagues after coming to Dongdu, and then be promoted as soon as possible, but unexpectedly, I made a big joke right after I came here.
If the governor Shen Jin is really related to Yibo Lou, he is already on the opposite side of Shen Jin.
"Husband, what should we do now?"
Zhou Yuqing had already panicked and had no idea.
"We can't just let this matter go... If we can't do anything with the governor, then we can't do anything with Li Mo?"
Xu Ning stared at Zhou Yuqing.
What made him most angry today was actually not Shen Jin, but Li Mo's condescending tone before going upstairs.
"Husband, what are you going to do? If it doesn't work out, let's forget about it for now... wait until everything in Dongdu is sorted out..."
For some reason, when Xu Ning mentioned Li Mo again, Zhou Yuqing felt an inexplicable panic in her heart.
Ever since she disliked Li Mo, she was always the one who suffered in the end every time she looked for trouble.
Wouldn't it be worse if we suffer losses again this time?
"Hmph, a current sixth-grade county magistrate is actually mixed up with a gangster force. What kind of behavior is this?"
Getting up, Xu Ning walked to the window.
He has already made plans to read Li Mo's book after a while.
"Refer to Li Mo's book... Husband, do you think you should discuss this matter with your father? Yi Bo Lou is a local snake in the Eastern Capital, and Li Mo is involved in it. If this matter is reported to Yi Bo Lou, You know, there will be trouble over there again... We're afraid..."
Zhou Yuqing thumped.
The scene of being slapped one after another in Yibo Building today subconsciously appeared in my mind.
"I'm not stupid! You can ask someone else to take care of the matter."
A trace of cruelty flashed in Xu Ning's eyes.
"Looking for someone else? Who?"
"Zhao Hai!"
"Zhao Hai? Aren't he and Li Mo..."
Zhou Yuqing was a little confused.
She once thought that Li Mo and Zhao Hai were life-and-death enemies, but since the last confrontation in Jinluan Palace, she felt that the two were not as they thought.
"Don't worry, Zhao Hai is very deep in this city. He just told the truth that time in Jinluan Palace. If it were me, I would do the same, because that time was not a good opportunity to add insult to injury, but this does not mean that Zhao Hai will forget What happened before."
Xu Ning waved his hand.
He is very confident in himself.
I met Zhao Hai the day before yesterday, and I felt that although Zhao Hai is young, he is not simple. Even when facing Shen Jin, Zhao Hai is neither humble nor overbearing, and he is very confident.
"this....."
"I'll go see Zhao Hai first tomorrow."
........
As everyone knows,
Just when Xu Ning felt that she had been greatly wronged and planned to join forces with Zhao Haishen and Li Mo,
Zhao Haiduan sat in the study and frowned while looking at the documents on the desk.
By the way, Zhao Hai is no longer the young boy who followed Li Mo. After arriving in Dongdu, he went to the human market to buy a few slaves and a housekeeper, so that the huge Biejia Mansion also had a human market.
In order to completely cut off the relationship with Yi Bo Lou,
Zhao Hai did not use people from Yibo Tower and Yuntianzhuang, so he had to find a way to form the subsequent team himself.
"This Ruyang County is not simple. Two of the first three county magistrates died of sudden illness, and one suffered from a serious illness and took the initiative to retire and return to his hometown. How can there be such a coincidence in the world?"
After a long time, Zhao Hai closed the document and said to himself.
Although he could not help much in the world, Zhao Hai was not idle on the official side, but wanted to clear some obstacles for his lord in advance, so as not to catch Ruyang by surprise.
Unexpectedly, when I checked the documents, I found some problems.
"Ruyang County is barren, surrounded by towering mountains. There is only one main road leading to the east capital, and there is also a large river running through the mountains from north to south. Moreover, the people in the county have simple folk customs... There should not be any problems.
."
He rubbed his eyebrows,
Zhao Hai easily opened another document on the desk.
Boom, boom, boom!
But at this moment, there was a knock on the study door.
"Sir, midnight snack is ready..."
There was also a sound at the same time.
"Uncle Zhang? Come in!"
Hearing this, Zhao Hai's expression moved slightly and he spoke.
Creak!
The door opened, and an old man in his sixties, dressed as a butler, walked in carrying a bowl of chicken soup.
The old man's real name was Zhang Fu. When Zhao Hai was wandering around the market, he saw that he knew some words and was a little pitiful, so he bought him back and became his housekeeper.
"Sir, it's already so late. It's not good to have a late night snack and go to bed early. It won't hurt your body."
Putting down the chicken soup, Zhang Fu whispered.
The eyes he looked at Zhao Hai were full of concern and gratitude.
If it weren't for Zhao Hai, he would probably still be living a naked life in the city, how could he suddenly transform into a fifth-grade butler.
Now that he goes out again, many people will give him some face.
"No problem!"
Zhao Hai waved his hand. Just when Zhao Hai wanted Zhang Fu to go down to rest first, he suddenly thought of something and couldn't help but ask,
"Uncle Zhang, are you a local from Dongdu?"
"Um!"
Hearing this, Zhang Fu nodded quickly.
"Then do you know Ruyang County?"
Zhao Hai asked.
Although he was born and raised in Dongdu, he was still young after all, and he had never been to other places except Dongdu and Chang'an.
"Ruyang County? To be fair to you, I am originally from Ruyang County. I wonder why you are asking about this matter?"
Zhang Fu had a meal.
"Oh? Uncle Zhang is from Ruyang County? I wonder if Uncle Zhang can tell you about Ruyang County in detail."
Zhao Hai couldn't help but lean forward.
What a coincidence.
"Sir, Ruyang County is surrounded by mountains on three sides and is located in the southeast of Dongdu. In the middle is a plain with a radius of three hundred miles. There is only an extremely dangerous pass leading to Dongdu."
Taking a deep breath, Zhang Fu fell into reminiscing.
"In addition to this pass, there is also a big river that runs from north to south."
"These officers know!"
Zhao Hai nodded slightly.
I remember it quite clearly in the document.
"Sir, the outside world thinks that with such a natural barrier, the people of Ruyang County must be living very well!"
Zhang Fu smiled bitterly.
"Isn't it?"
Zhao Hai frowned.
Ruyang County has both barriers and waterways. It is simply a natural granary.
"Your Excellency, you don't know. It is precisely because Ruyang County has only one waterway and one dangerous pass out that the people there are living in dire straits. Not only are there water bandits on the waterway, but bandits are also rampant on the official roads. Not only do they rob passing merchants and people, but sometimes they also
High tolls will be charged.
Over time, this caused a large number of people in Ruyang County to leave in search of a living, and Laosheng was one of them."
Mentioning the past, Zhang Fu shook his head repeatedly.
If you don’t go to Ruyang, you won’t know the suffering there.
