Chapter 68: The Great Change of the County Government

In the early morning, Officer Qin stood alone at the gate of the county government office. This was his duty, and he was the gatekeeper. However, Officer Qin's face was full of worry at this time, and his sorrowful look lingered.

A few days have passed since the last time he dealt with Capt. Dong. It is estimated that Capt. Dong will come to blackmail him again in the next two days, and he only has the last fifty taels of official silver in his hand.

The Qin officer actually didn't want to hand over the last fifty taels. Even if his eldest nephew fled, he still needed living expenses. These fifty taels were enough.

The other officers of the county government were far away from Officer Qin and did not talk to Officer Qin. Everyone knew that Officer Qin had provoked Mr. Dong and was being punished.

Dong Captou came back from the outside with a few minions. He happened to see Qin's officer passing by the county government gate, so he surrounded him again and struck three poles first if there were jujubes or not.

"Old Qin, you still owe two hundred and fifty taels in black and white, have you collected it?" Dong Captou said with a smile.

The Qin officer gritted his teeth and did not want to hand over the last fifty taels, even though his eldest nephew had said that he could hand over any money as long as it could delay time.

"The money is really gone. I'm afraid it will be gone in the future. I still hope that Uncle Dong will show his kindness." Qin Chaoyi replied.

Dong Baotou changed his face instantly. He said that it was normal to have no money now, but saying that there would be no money in the future was provocative! He pushed Qin Xiang hard, "You have written in black and white, and your feelings are just to coax your grandfather."

What?"

Then he ordered the people around him: "Pull this ignorant thing back to the class room!"

When others saw it, they showed a bit of unbearable expression, but with Dong Batian's reputation, who was so domineering in front of the county government office, who would dare to control him?

At this moment, a clerk suddenly came out from the county government office and shouted to Mr. Dong: "Just now, the government office issued an order. It was to prevent local policemen from getting into trouble. We are going to Jiangning.

Yuan'er County's fast-shift police officers immediately exchanged orders upon receiving the order!"

There were a lot of people coming and going at the gate. When I heard the news, I was immediately in an uproar. Because I have never heard of such a thing in many years. It was really the first time.

"How could there be such an order?" Dong was stunned. To him, this order was like being struck by lightning while walking on the road.

Shangyuan County Government Office is less than a quarter of an hour away from Jiangning County Government Office. It can be said to be very close, but the boundary is clear. It is not our territory at all, and there is no foundation at all.

The clerk shook his head: "Who knows what the gentlemen are thinking? The second gentleman has spoken. Under the command of Mr. Dong, you should suspend your errands and move to Shangyuan County as soon as possible!"

The Qin officer who had just been bullied by Mr. Dong was the most shocked. His eldest nephew seemed to have never taken the notorious Mr. Dong seriously. Could this be what he was waiting for?

It also reminded me that my eldest nephew seemed to have suddenly changed his identity, and inexplicably got very close to the county magistrate. Could this be what the eldest nephew planned?

In this case, my eldest nephew may really be the second master's military advisor...

While Captou Dong was in a state of confusion, Officer Qin quietly slipped away and headed north in a hurry. He didn't know what to do next, so the top priority was to invite back the person who knew what to do!

In the Xu Family Academy, Xu Shian and Qin Dewei were sitting and discussing Taoism.

"I have been thinking about an ultimate philosophical question these past two days." Xu Shi'an said confused: "Why do I have to go to ethnic studies every day?"

Qin Dewei asked in surprise: "Why do you say this?"

Is it possible that this brother-in-law also encountered a mental obstacle and became confused about the purpose of learning? But isn't this a philosophical issue for higher levels?

Xu Laosan pointed at Brother Xu who was not far away: "I'm not like a loser like him. I have neither hereditary inheritance nor favor. I just need to wait quietly until I am sixteen years old, and then I will be favored by hundreds of households." Ah, why do you still go to school every day?"

Qin Dewei: "..."

Xu Shian asked back: "Am I wrong?"

Qin Dewei said coldly: "If you don't come to the ethnic school to attend classes, wouldn't I, my companion, be unemployed? Where can I find classes?"

"So, it's because of you that I come to the clan every day to learn what I learned?" Xu Laosan asked, "Then how do you want to thank me? I've seen Nanshi Lou Street, but I haven't been to the old Qinhuai courtyard yet. ..."

Qin Dewei taught righteously and sternly: "Since you have come to school, study hard! Even if you do not rely on fame and fortune in the future, there is no harm in studying more. It will benefit you for a lifetime, which is comparable to a lifetime of wealth!"

Therefore, we should be at ease and calm, immersed in literature and science, pondering the subtle words, and knowing the true meaning! How can we be half-hearted, full of distracting thoughts, and disturbed by numerous external things?"

Mr. Zeng heard from the side that he wanted to set a positive example in the school, and he applauded: "This is a great thing! If a boy can have this idea, he will definitely achieve something in the future."

At this time, there was a sudden noise at the door of the clan school, and then someone shouted loudly outside: "Brother Wei, are you in there? The county government has undergone tremendous changes!"

These words had no beginning and no end, and everyone in the school was confused. What kind of drastic change in the county government, and what does this have to do with ethnic studies?

Xu Shi'an was also confused. He was about to discuss a few words with Qin Dewei out of habit, but he heard a whooshing sound and a figure passed by. Then Qin Bandu had disappeared in the seat. When he looked again, he saw Qin Bandu had fled. Arrive at the entrance of the school.

Mr. Zeng shouted: "What are you going to do?"

Qin Dewei didn't even look back, and said as he walked: "There is something going on at the Jiangning County Government, and I need to go back and take charge of the overall situation! Mr. Zeng will only forgive me and allow me to take leave for a few days!"

Mr. Zeng's face twitched a few times. Something happened in the county government. What does it have to do with you, a twelve-year-old boy? How dare you shamelessly say that you are in charge of the overall situation? Do you think you are a pro-people official?

Xu Shi'an pointed at Qin Dewei's back and asked Mr. Zeng: "Sir, please teach me, is this peace of mind and calmness, soaked in literature and theory? Or is it half-hearted, full of distracting thoughts, and disturbed by numerous external things?"

Mr. Zeng gritted his teeth and said: "Learning should not only be about extracting chapters and sentences, but also applying them to the world!"

Xu Shi'an curled his lips. As a senior academic scumbag, he had long been accustomed to double-standard treatment.

But Qin Dewei left school and hurried back to the county government office with his uncle. As expected, he saw that the county government officials were not interested in official business and were shouting and whispering to each other.

Qin Dewei ignored others and went straight into the county magistrate's hall. He saw that Feng county magistrate was not sitting in the hall and was about to return to the back office.

"Why are you here?" Feng Xiancheng was very surprised.

Qin Dewei replied: "I heard about the great changes in the county government and came here..."

Feng Xiancheng waved his hand to interrupt Qin Dewei: "What a huge change, it's not worth mentioning! I have to go to a banquet first!"

Qin Dewei was speechless for a moment. The replacement of Captain Dong was indeed a huge change for him, like a big stone being lifted from his heart.

But to Feng Xiancheng, this is just a matter of raising his hand, not as important as a date.
