The light of the sword is like the moon reflecting on Kyushu

Chapter 1892: Fees Doubled

The wine has passed three rounds, and the food has passed the five flavors!

Ang Lee finally couldn't hold back and put forward his own ideas.

"Master Feng, I need your help with something, but I don't know if I should tell you or not."

Feng Jiuxiao said calmly: "Senior, please feel free to speak. I will help if I can, and don't blame me if I can't."

Li An was stunned. He didn't expect the boy to answer so straightforwardly!

But the other party's words were very smooth, neither saying that he would definitely help, nor that he would not help. As for whether to help or not, it seemed to be up to him!

Li An suddenly felt that he was not facing a teenager, but an octogenarian who had the secret to keep his youthful appearance! Or perhaps it was an old fox in the guise of a teenager, who was so slippery that he didn't hold back!

"Okay! Then I'll tell you! My Li family has been doing business for generations. In addition to trade, we also have some industries, such as textiles, ceramics, and tea. In particular, our tea garden is the largest in a hundred miles!"

“Well, the industry is not small.”

"But my biggest industry is weaving! Of the thirty-seven weaving workshops in Hexi, ninety percent belong to my Li family!"

Feng Jiuxiao laughed, "Haha, Senior, you are so rich and powerful, what difficulties can there be?"

Li An sighed, "There is a Zhang family in Hedong, they are our old rivals!"

"Oh, you have a competitor? Isn't it normal to have competitors in business? Just fair competition? Can't you compete with them?"

Li An laughed dryly, "If it's a fair competition, why would I be afraid of him? The key is that it's unfair!"

"How unfair!"

"The Zhang family has set a rule. Wenchuan County is bounded by the Wen River. Goods from the west of the river can only be sold to Xixia and Tubo. All trade is not allowed to cross the Wen River and cannot dock on the east bank! If you want to cross the river, the Zhang family will take a cut of all the goods, 5%! This is a bit bullying!"

Feng Jiuxiao said, "Senior, what you mean is that your family's products can only be sold west of the Wen River and cannot cross the Wen River? If you want to sell to the east of the Wen River, you have to pay taxes to the Zhang family?"

Li Boshan said indignantly: "How can this be called paying taxes? It's clearly protection fees! Goods from the Hexi region can only be shipped to Tubo and Xiazhou. How can these two places compare to the prosperous Central Plains? In business, who doesn't want to make their business as big as possible? The Zhang family is really overbearing!"

Feng Jiuxiao was a little puzzled and said with a smile: "County Magistrate? Do you know what's going on? A businessman is so well-connected that he dares to collect taxes just by crossing a river. Even the Wenchuan County Government of the Song Dynasty doesn't dare to collect taxes like this, right?"

The ultimate result of setting up various pretexts and imposing heavy taxes is that the government forces the people to rebel! The government dares not to collect the money, but the Zhang family dares to collect it blatantly. What's going on?

Yang Zixiong's eyes were red from drinking so much that Feng Jiuxiao called him the county magistrate. How ironic was that? He couldn't help but blush, "Sir, I know a little bit about this matter. I've been looking for an opportunity to learn more about the details recently! It's better to do it today than today. Master Li is here. Why not let him tell me what's going on? After all, I haven't been in charge of the Wenchuan County Office for long, and I'm still not very clear about many things!"

Li Boshan sneered in his heart: Damn, you are really good at making excuses! What the hell is it that you just took office and don’t know? This dog official looks sanctimonious and serious, but in private he is really two-faced and insidious! My father and I have come to you for this matter no less than eight hundred times, and every time you either waited or dragged it out? Damn!

Li An looked at Feng Jiuxiao, then at Yang Zixiong, and seemed to have made up his mind. He said in a deep voice: "Master Yang, although our two families Li and Zhang had some business grievances, we could still get along with each other in terms of face. At that time, the goods from Hexi could cross the river! But some time ago, when Song and Shu were fighting, people were in panic, and many people took advantage of the chaos to cause trouble! I don't know what kind of relationship the Zhang family has established, and their temper is long, and they suddenly demanded that the goods from Hexi could not cross the river! If you want to cross the river, you have to pay money!"

"Can't I just not take it out?"

"No? I don't know when he actually won over a lot of martial arts masters. Whenever our goods crossed the river, the boat was either sunk or stolen. We were so panicked that we had no choice but to give up crossing the river!"

Feng Jiuxiao asked: "Have you reported it to the police?"

Li An said: "I reported it!"

Feng Jiuxiao looked at Yang Zixiong with a smile on his face: "Did they report it to the police? County Magistrate Yang, they said they reported it to the police. Do you know about this?"

Yang Zixiong's face changed and cold sweat broke out!

The entire room suddenly dropped to freezing point, and Ang Lee felt his entire body freezing cold, as if he had fallen into an ice cellar!

He had not expected that once Feng Jiuxiao got angry, his pressure would be so strong, like a mountain pressing down on one's head, as heavy as a thousand pounds! It was so overwhelming!

Yang Zixiong knelt down with a plop and said in a trembling voice: "Sir, they did report it, but there is no substantial evidence, so... I was wrong!"

Feng Jiuxiao was still smiling, but in Yang Zixiong's eyes, his smile was weird and sinister, full of murderous intent!

"No evidence? Without evidence, this matter cannot proceed? Since you... know you are wrong, do you know how to correct it?"

"Know...know..."

"Let me hear how you want to change it!"

Yang Zixiong originally wanted to investigate the Zhang family's illegal activities, but then he thought, if he investigated thoroughly, the Zhang family would definitely fight guerrilla warfare, and evidence might not be found, but the boat in Hexi might still be sunk! What to do?

He thought about it and decided to take a gamble! He said with a stiff upper lip: "We will prepare for both scenarios. First, we will send troops to guard the river and resolutely crack down on the bullying and market domination to protect the legitimate interests of honest businessmen! Second, we will secretly investigate the evidence of the Zhang family's illegal activities and arrest them immediately once they are verified!"

"Then can the goods from Hexi cross the river?"

"can!"

"Really?"

"It's really good!"

"Okay! Get up! This matter is over!"

Yang Zixiong wiped the sweat off his forehead and sat down again.

Li Liang was extremely shocked!

My father-in-law and my husband have come to the county government office countless times, but Magistrate Yang either claimed to be sick and avoided them, or asked his servants to lie that he had gone to the countryside to handle a case. After finally catching him once, he just perfunctorily said that he would pay attention to this matter in the future!

Unexpectedly, the benefactor only said one word, and the high and mighty county magistrate agreed to it! This shows that the benefactor's actual official position is much higher than that of the county magistrate! What is his official position?

Li Liang suddenly stepped on Li Boshan's foot with her toes. Li Boshan immediately understood and poured himself a full glass of wine, but found that Li Liang had pushed his glass forward a few inches. He immediately understood and poured her a glass of wine too! Then the couple stood up at the same time!

Everyone suddenly saw the two of them standing up, and they immediately realized that the couple was going to toast!

Li Boshan held the cup with both hands and said respectfully, "My benefactor, this cup of wine is a toast to you from my husband and me! Thank you!"

Feng Jiuxiao also stood up, filled his own glass, and then said with a smile: "Young Master, Young Madam, let's not be polite. It's fate that we meet today, and we should all be happy. Don't be polite anymore. We helped me, and you also helped us. If we keep thanking each other, it will be endless. From now on, no one is allowed to say thank you anymore!" Then he drank it all in one gulp!

The Li couple immediately followed suit!

Who could have thought that the delicate Li Liang could drink so happily!

Big Wolf immediately said, "Is that right? Now we have a drinking atmosphere! Come on, let me play a round first!"

Feng Jiuxiao smiled and said, "Wait a minute! Before you start circling, let me tell you something first, in case you guys get drunk and forget it! I hope that everyone, whether it's Elder Li, the eldest young master and his wife, or the county magistrate and his wife, can keep it a secret for me and not reveal the news that I'm in Wenchuan for the time being! I've arranged for County Magistrate Yang to carry out a difficult and secret mission. If my identity information is leaked, some people will hide, and it will be extremely difficult to catch them!"

Li An immediately stood up, pointed his right hand to the sky, with a serious face: "I, Li An, swear to heaven that I will never reveal any information about my benefactor. If I break my oath, I will be struck by lightning!" Zeng Yong thought: This old guy directly changed "young master" to "benefactor", he really knows how to take advantage of the situation!

Feng Jiuxiao was startled, then laughed and said, "Senior, there is no need to be so serious. Why are you swearing to the sky?"

Li An sat down and then said with a smile: "Matters involving the benefactor must be taken seriously! Haha, to be frank, whoever leaks the news about the benefactor will be destroying Lord Yang's mission! Destroying Lord Yang's mission will be equivalent to affecting my Li family's business! How can I not swear?" As he said that, he glared at Li Boshan!

Li Boshan immediately stood up, "I, Li Boshan, swear to heaven, if even a little bit of what happened today is leaked, I will be struck by lightning!" Feng Jiuxiao just asked everyone to keep his identity secret, but he went even further and actually included all the contents of today's conversation! This is also good, keeping today's private gathering secret for the time being will help many future actions!

The performance of the Li family father and son was really wonderful! Yang Zixiong thought: Apart from your Li family, we are the only outsiders here. Aren’t you just trying to make me alive?

Yang Zixiong immediately signaled to Yang Liu to pour the wine, and they both stood up.

Yang Zixiong also pointed his right hand to the sky like Li An and said seriously: "I and my wife Yang Zixiong solemnly swear here that anyone who leaks any information today will be punished by God!"

Although his wife Yang Liu was a little embarrassed, she knew that the atmosphere had already been created to this point by Li's father and son, so she had no choice but to bite the bullet and accompany them to the end of the performance!

Pang Shiwu and the others looked at each other in bewilderment. Why did they even have to take an oath? Zeng Yong, however, could see that this was clearly Li An's revenge and he wanted to get rid of Yang Zixiong!

Yuan Zishan spoke up at this time, "Fifteen, you won't casually reveal what happened today to outsiders, right?"

Pang Shiwu immediately said, "I don't know anyone here, who can I tell?"

Yuan Zishan said: "That's it. If you dare to tell it to others, I will deal with you! What do you think, Hero Feng?" Pang Shiwu and others immediately knew that Miss Yuan was trying to help them out and saved them from embarrassment!

Feng Jiuxiao smiled and said, "You have the final say! Senior Li, these guys are all my good brothers. If they betray me, my fiancée will not forgive them. There is no need for God to intervene, so there is no need to swear to God. You don't mind, right?"

Li An immediately laughed awkwardly, "My benefactor! What are you talking about? How dare I mind? Among all of you present, only Magistrate Yang and I are outsiders. We just need to swear an oath!"

Feng Jiuxiao and the others smiled but said nothing. Magistrate Yang was furious: Mr. Li, you finally got the chance! Damn!

Although he wanted to turn against them, he knew that from today on, he no longer had the chance to take revenge on the Li family!

The Li family has now hooked up with the Deputy Envoy! Damn it, calling him a benefactor all the time, the Deputy Envoy is so happy!

If the deputy envoy knew that I was looking for trouble with the Li family again, I would be killed without a complete body!

During this army's attack on Shu, many people saw the deputy envoy killing people with their own eyes!

A punch from a distance can turn a person into a bloody mist! You'd better not try it yourself!

Feng Jiuxiao said: "Brother Wolf, I have finished my instructions, it's your turn to circle!"

Li An asked, "My benefactor, what does this circle mean?"

Feng Jiuxiao smiled and said, "Just drink a glass of wine with every guest at the table in order of seating!"

Li An laughed and said, "Oh, it's just a toast. I thought he was going to hit someone."

Big Wolf smiled and said, "Then I'll start with Master Li first, and then I'll finish with Master Feng. Come on, Master Li, I'll toast to you!"

Ang Lee smiled and raised his glass!

Big Wolf had another drink with Zeng Yong and Pang Shiwu!

With Big Wolf's action, the atmosphere at the table immediately became lively! Everyone couldn't sit idle. Big Wolf continued to toast. Pang Shiwu raised his glass to Yang Zixiong, which made Yang Zixiong very excited. Zeng Yong toasted Li Boshan, who was also a little excited. Yuan Zishan signaled Chili Pepper, and the two of them drank a glass of water with Yang Liu. Chang Zijin and Erni formed a team, circled together, and drank a glass with Li Liang first!

The scene suddenly became lively!

While everyone was toasting each other, Feng Jiuxiao asked Li An privately: "Senior Li, what is the situation with the Zhang family? Why are they so arrogant?"

Li An lowered his voice and said, "The businesses run by the Zhang family basically overlap with mine. He doesn't have any special background, but I recently discovered that there is a Tibetan shadow behind him!"

"He is close to the Tibetans? Aren't there a lot of Tibetans here? Isn't it normal for them to do business together?"

"If it were someone else who was in partnership, I would think it was normal, but I think it was abnormal that he was in partnership with the Tibetans! He felt that his partners were not Tibetan merchants, but the dignitaries of the Tibetan dynasty! Otherwise, he wouldn't be so arrogant!"

"Is the Wenchuan cake so big? He wants to have it all to himself!"

"For official business, although Wenchuan is small, it is located on a major transportation route and attracts many merchants. The scale of development is getting bigger and bigger. Now the small Wenchuan has a population of 100,000!"

"What? So many?"

"Yes, so rising tides lift all boats. The more people there are, the more people come to do business. But the population base is large, so even though there are many merchants, they can still make a living! But since the Zhang family's ambitions have grown, they have begun to constantly erode and swallow up other merchants, causing panic among the people! Hexi is better off. We have formed a business alliance and huddled together for warmth. The power of the Zhang family cannot come over for a while!"

"The business alliance in Hexi was led by your predecessor?"

"Yes!"

"I originally wanted to meet this Mr. Zhang, but I have something urgent to do, so I'll leave this trivial matter to the county magistrate!"

Li An said, "My benefactor, I am not saying bad things about the county magistrate behind his back. If the county magistrate takes action personally, perhaps the problem can be solved. But I am also worried. What if this Zhang gets desperate and sends someone to secretly assassinate the county magistrate? What should I do then? Zhang is extremely arrogant and may do anything!"

"Haha, then you underestimate the power of the Song Dynasty! You said there are so many heroes in the world, why are there so few people who dare to kill the imperial officials?"

"This, the punishment is severe?"

"That's right! Killing an official is different from killing ordinary people. One life for another is enough! Killing an official means exterminating the entire family, but it's almost the same! Is it worth it to sacrifice the whole family for just one life? Does Zhang dare?"

"He has a big family and a lot of money, he definitely wouldn't dare to do that!"

"That's right. However, it's not difficult for these businessmen to control an official. Threats, intimidation, seduction, and bribery are inevitable! With beauty paving the way and money bombardment, who can resist it?" "Then...if the county magistrate is won over by the Zhang family, then won't we be passive?"

"It's okay! Don't worry! The county magistrate will never be lured by the Zhang family! If the Zhang family is just greedy for money, then this matter can be resolved easily. There are many laws to punish them, and it's okay to give them a beating! If they are involved with the Tubo court, this is a serious crime of treason, and they will have no choice but to die! Don't be afraid of them doing it, just be afraid that they will do it lightly!"

The crime was not serious enough to warrant the death penalty! Without the death penalty, I will not be able to get rid of my hatred!

Li An immediately gained confidence after hearing this. He picked up the wine jug and poured wine for Feng Jiuxiao first, then filled his own cup. Feng Jiuxiao smiled and said, "Senior, you have a good alcohol tolerance!"

Li An said with a smile: "Back then, I was known as the man who could drink a thousand cups of wine without getting drunk! I will drink three hundred cups with your friend from the Western Regions in a little while!"

Feng Jiuxiao said with a smile: "If the two of you fight, it will definitely cause a sensation in the martial arts world!"

……

Zhang Taiping stood on the third floor of Wangjiang Tower, looking at the Huo's business on the opposite bank with a gloomy face.

The river breeze, wrapped in the spicy aroma of peppercorns, brushed past his nose. He reached out and pressed down his fluttering beard. His knuckles actually glowed with a strange metallic luster. His "Ashura Finger" skill had reached perfection!

"Boss, the second son of the Huo family is here again." The accountant approached with a gilded copper box in his hand. The Tibetan Dzi beads in the box glowed blood in the twilight. "He said he wanted to use this string of nine-eyed Dzi beads in exchange for our water passage."

A strong wind suddenly blew up on the river, causing the Huoji merchant flag to flutter.

Zhang Taiping caught a glimpse of the dark pattern on the corner of the flag - it was the lotus that should have been the Huo family's emblem, but now in the twilight it looked like the flame pattern of Tibetan Tantric Buddhism.

There was coldness in his eyes!

The Huo family has been more and more active recently. Could it be that they have also received support from the Tibetans? Did Huo Laoer come to negotiate this time with the instructions of the Li family? If they acted on their own, it would not be very interesting! I just want to play with Mr. Li! Dealing with these small shrimps is a waste of time and boring!

"Tell the second son of the Huo family that this Wen River is not the internal river of our Zhang family. His ship only needs to not stop at the east bank and can go anywhere he wants. It will be smooth sailing all the way."

But I heard someone outside the door laughing, "My good second brother, where can I get a boat if you don't lend me one?" Then a man about thirty years old walked in with a smile. He had a face as white as jade, handsome features, and was dressed in brocade, looking quite noble.

Zhang Taiping said calmly: "There are many boats on the Wen River, can't you just pick a few?"

Huo Lao Er said with a smile: "Second brother, please don't tease me. There are many boats on the entire Wenshui River. I can hire them, but who dares to approach the east bank without your permission? What's the use of my goods even if they are loaded on the boat?"

Zhang Taiping said calmly: "You can let the boat go all the way south. As long as you leave Wenchuan, I can't interfere. You can dock wherever you want!"

"Brother, stop kidding! We're still leaving Wenchuan? Less than ten miles south of the Wenshui River, there are dangerous rapids and dead ends. It's impossible to navigate! Brother, I'm using your boat just to move goods from the west bank to the east bank. Can't my string of nine-eyed Dzi beads cover the toll?"

Zhang Taiping's eyes were like an eagle. "What goods are you transporting this time?"

"Yaks, Bomi Gastrodia elata, Tibetan carpets, Tibetan pigs, haha, all those things!"

"Hey! Where is the goods stored now?"

"In our Huo family's warehouse!"

Zhang Taiping suddenly smiled sinisterly, "Does old Li An know that you have been looking for me these few times?"

The second young master Huo smiled and said, "Of course I know!"

"Really?"

"Really! You asked me three times!"

"Okay! You should know the rules. I charge you 5% of the toll for each ship. How much should you give me this time?"

"My three ships' cargoes are worth two hundred thousand taels, five percent is ten thousand taels, and I spent twelve thousand taels on the nine-eyed Dzi beads. How could that be enough to cover the crossing fee?"

Zhang Taiping sneered, "Second Brother Huo, you should be thankful that I have an agreement with that old fellow named Li! Otherwise, you would be dead now!"

Huo Lao Er was shocked. "Second brother, I came to you to discuss business with good intentions, but you actually want to kill me?"

Zhang Taiping said coldly: "Those who have deceived me, I have killed them! I want to kill you because you lied! The goods in your warehouse are not some random yaks, Bo Mi Tian Ma, Tibetan carpets, but saffron! Do you think I don't know?"

Huo Lao Er's face changed, and he thought: Damn! Who leaked the news that he had three ships of saffron?

Zhang Taiping said coldly: "So your three ships' cargo is worth more than 200,000 taels!"

Huo Lao Er smiled awkwardly, "Then let me calculate it again!"

Zhang Taiping said coldly: "Your nine-eyed Dzi bead is indeed good, but you didn't buy it for 12,000 taels! You stole it from a thief!"

Huo Lao Er was shocked, "How did you know?"

Zhang Taiping said coldly: "I happen to know the person who lost the Dzi beads. He is a lama! I also happen to know the person who stole the Dzi beads. Now his hands are in the box next to you! Now the person who stole the Dzi beads is standing in front of me. Tell me, how should I treat you?"

Huo Laoer thought: WTF! How could it be such a coincidence? The person who lost the Dzi beads turned out to be his friend?

His forehead has begun to sweat!

"I'll return the Dzi beads to you. I... I'm leaving first..." The second young master Huo wanted to leave.

"Did I let you go?"

"Brother, I didn't steal this, you won't hit me, right?" If he really cut off his hand, it would be a huge loss!

"Don't worry! I'm just telling you a few words, don't be afraid!"

Huo Lao Er was sweating profusely, thinking: Who wouldn't be scared when facing a devil like you who kills without blinking an eye?

“Second…Second brother…you…you say!”

"Go back and tell that old guy that starting today, the toll for goods crossing the river from Hexi will be doubled! Ten percent per ship!"

"what?"

"What?" Zhang Taiping's eyes were like knives, piercing Huo Laoer's eyes. "Do you need me to say it again?"

"Ah no need!"

Huo Laoer left in despair!

He knew he screwed up!

This time, he actually came here without telling Mr. Li!

According to the rules of the Hexi Alliance, the negotiation of the tolls could only be handled by the eldest son of the Li family, who met with Zhang Taiping, the second master of the Zhang family in Hedong. After the two sides agreed on the total value of the goods and the amount of the toll, they signed and sealed the goods, and then loaded them on the ship for transshipment.

The reason why Huo Lao Er suddenly wanted to come over to negotiate was because he always felt unhappy! His family's goods had to cross the river, but the Li family had to represent the west of the river and the Zhang family of the east of the river to negotiate. What was the toll? The Huo family had no say, only the right to know afterwards. They had to execute it or not, and he was very unhappy!

He even felt that all the merchants in Hexi were fools, all brainwashed by the Li family. Why did they establish this business alliance? Why did they jointly push the Li family to be the representative of Hexi? Why did they decide the tolls for these people?

His private meeting with Zhang Taiping this time actually broke the clause in the alliance treaty that "no private negotiations with Hedong"!

If the merchants in Hexi knew this, how would they view the Huo family?

And this time, because I was so clever and concealed the value of the goods, the Zhang family doubled the toll! How can I face my father when I go home? How can I face the Li family? If the merchants in Hexi knew that the toll had doubled, would they eat me alive? Damn!

……

There were thirty wine glasses in front of Big Wolf and Li An, all filled.

Feng Jiuxiao reminded: "Senior Li, I advise you not to compete with him in drinking!"

Li An's face was flushed, and he was in high spirits. He stood there straight as a javelin, "My benefactor, do you think I can't drink as much as him? Do you think he is younger than me, so he can drink more than me?"

Feng Jiuxiao smiled and said, "It's not his youth, it's..." He stood up and whispered in Li An's ear, "He's not a human, he's a beast! His stomach can hold several large water jars, ten of me can't drink more than him, I think three old seniors might be able to drink more than him!"

Li An's eyes widened as he looked at Big Wolf and said with great passion, "I don't believe it!"

Feng Jiuxiao looked at Li Boshan and said, "The senior must be able to drink a lot, but no matter how much he drinks, there is a limit. He is in high spirits now, so it is difficult to persuade him. You and your wife must take good care of the old man!"

Li Boshan immediately said, "Don't worry, benefactor! I know my father is old and can't drink much. I will stop him as soon as I see the situation getting bad!"

Li An suddenly glared at Li Boshan, "Who the hell are you saying is not good enough?"

Li Boshan immediately said, "You said I can't do it! I said I can't do it!"

Li An smiled and said to Big Wolf: "Begin?"

Big Wolf's blond hair shone brightly in the sun, and his sharp face showed full confidence. "Begin!"

The two of them moved at the same time as fast as the wind, picked up the wine glasses and drank!

They drank with both hands alternately, one cup at a time like flowing water, and in an instant, thirty cups of wine were finished!

Li An's face was flushed and he was in high spirits. "Pour more wine!" Li Boshan poured the wine immediately!

Big Wolf glanced at Pang Shiwu, who immediately understood and poured him a glass of wine with a smile!

The battle of three hundred cups has officially begun!

Erni whispered to Zeng Yong, "Mr. Li is not young anymore, is it okay for him to drink like this?"

Zeng Yong also shook his head. "I don't even dare to drink like that. If he drinks like that, he'll probably get drunk soon!"

Feng Jiuxiao asked: "County Master, how much can you drink?"

Yang Zixiong laughed dryly and said, "I've had enough!" He was afraid that Feng Jiuxiao would challenge him to a drinking contest!

Feng Jiuxiao smiled and said, "I've reached my limit too, let's take a break and give them some support!"

Yang Zixiong immediately said: "Yes, yes, yes!"

Feng Jiuxiao said: "Have you completed the investigation I asked you to do? You'd better ask them to hand it over immediately!"

Yang Zixiong was immediately frightened!

Is the deputy envoy a reincarnated evildoer? How does he know that the investigation list has been completed?

He immediately stood up and said, "I'll go and get it right away!"

Feng Jiuxiao smiled and said nothing.

Yang Zixiong was sweating all over when he walked out, but the breeze blew past him and his whole body instantly became cold and he shivered!

Yang Liu withdrew her gaze from her husband's back and instinctively glanced at Feng Jiuxiao, only to see that Feng Jiuxiao was also looking at her! She was immediately startled and hurriedly looked away.

Feng Jiuxiao asked: "Where is sister-in-law from?"

Yang Liu said: "Luoyang!"

Feng Jiuxiao said: "The ancient capital of the Six Dynasties, what a great place! It's a thousand miles from there to here, you must have worked hard! Sister-in-law, let me treat you to a drink!" Then he drank the glass!

Yang Liu took a sip of water. She knew that Feng Jiuxiao had something to say, so she prepared to listen carefully.

Feng Jiuxiao said: "County Magistrate Yang is a good person! He should do his job well! As long as he does not violate the general principles, he will be a competent county magistrate!"

Yang Liu lowered her head and whispered, "Thank you, young master!" She had been struggling for the whole afternoon, and at this moment she finally felt the clouds cleared and the sky began to clear!

Thank you Yudong for your strong support and encouragement!
