Chapter 355 Repeated slaps in the face
Liang Jin is so confident, naturally he has full confidence.

You know, Bi Bo City is actually an important territory of Hualongmen.

As a key hub city connecting Hualong Island with the mainland, it has always been highly valued by the top leaders of Hualongmen.

Hualongmen has been carefully managing this land for decades, and its influence has long penetrated into every aspect of the city.

It is no exaggeration to say that the city has been firmly controlled by Hualongmen, including the position of county magistrate.

Any county magistrate who attempts to oppose Hualongmen will encounter various situations.

Or they will suddenly be reported for corruption, eventually losing their official hat and stepping down in disgrace.

Or someone would inexplicably give their boss a sum of money and then they would be transferred away.

Those who insisted on fighting Hualongmen to the end would often die in unclear circumstances, and even the coroner could only conclude that they died of illness.

Only those who are willing to obey Hualongmen's arrangements can sit firmly in the position of county magistrate.

This is what is called "the county government is permanent, but the county magistrate is transient."

In the entire Bi Bo City County Government, from top to bottom, except for the frequent changes of the county magistrate, all other people are from Hualongmen.

In this way, the magistrate is just a puppet in name only and is not to be feared at all.

As the chief of the spies, Liang Jin naturally understood these things thoroughly and clearly.

However, because Yu Linglong is at a high level, she usually focuses on the overall situation and general direction of affairs, and does not care much about these details and knows very little about them.

She couldn't help but ask curiously:

"Xiongba, does that mean the magistrate has to listen to us too?"

Liang Jin answered confidently:
"If he doesn't follow our instructions, he won't be able to keep his job for long."

When Yu Linglong heard this, she suddenly understood and became even more excited about what would happen next.

But Zhang Cuilan and others didn't believe it at all.

Zhang Cuilan sneered and said with disdain:
"How ridiculous! My husband is a dignified county lord, how could he help evildoers like you?"

"I don't know what vicious means you used to destroy my sister's business. But as soon as my husband arrives, you shameless scoundrels will be thrown into prison!"

"If you have the guts, don't run away!"

"Come here, go and get the master!"

Following Zhang Cuilan's order, the servants immediately hurried to do the work.

Liu Yan was crying beside her, while Wu Meng had a cold look in his eyes as he stared at Yu Linglong and Liang Jin.

Yu Linglong found this matter increasingly interesting, so she simply participated in it.

She sneered and said arrogantly:
"Do I need to escape?"

"I have the courage to wait here for you to call for reinforcements. It depends on whether I have the courage to support you when your reinforcements arrive."

Seeing this, Liang Jin very considerately brought a chair.

Yu Linglong waved her sleeves gracefully, slowly sat down on the chair, and lazily waited for things to develop.

Seeing that his leader was so satisfied, Liang Jin naturally felt at ease.

Although the routine is old, it always wins people's hearts.

Liang Jin was tired of this kind of pretentious and then slapped in the face plot in his previous life.

But for the people in this world, at least for Yu Linglong, it is still very useful.

Liang Jin thought it was necessary to add fuel to the fire and was wondering where to start.

"Da da da!"

Accompanied by a burst of rapid horse hooves.

I saw a group of people riding horses, galloping towards this side in a hurry.

One of them was the captain of Liu Yan’s ship.

The leader was a middle-aged man dressed in official attire.

Liu Yan, who was originally still crying, felt like she had grabbed a life-saving straw when she saw the middle-aged man. She immediately pointed at Yu Linglong and Liang Jin and cried:
"Husband, you are finally here!"

"It was these two people who drove our ship out of the harbor and sent people to smash our store!"

"You must deal with them properly, do it for me!"

It turned out that the middle-aged man was Liu Yan’s husband, Boss Wang.

Yu Linglong sat by herself, leisurely playing with the newly bought clay figurine, showing a look of disdain for all this.

Liang Jinze stood behind Yu Linglong very tactfully, like a silent background wall.

After Boss Wang got off the horse, he ignored the crying Liu Yan, but walked up to Yu Linglong with a serious and nervous look on his face.

He looked at Yu Linglong and Liang Jin with a hint of awe in his eyes.

Then, he finally couldn't help it and asked in a trembling voice:

"Excuse me, are you two from… the Hualong Sect?"

When these words were spoken, Liu Yan, Zhang Cuilan and Wu Meng all looked confused. It was obvious that they had never heard of Hualongmen.

Upon hearing this, Yu Linglong finally glanced at Boss Wang and said calmly:
"You do have some good eyesight."

Boss Wang smiled bitterly.

He has been engaged in shipping business for many years, so he is naturally much more informed about maritime information than others.

He had vaguely heard some rumors from business leaders, saying that the Dongzhou Chamber of Commerce had a very close relationship with an organization called Hualongmen.

Just now, Boss Wang, who was sitting at home, heard his servants report what happened tonight and immediately guessed that all this must be related to Hualongmen.

After all, both the port and the Haizhen Pavilion’s shop belong to the Dongzhou Chamber of Commerce.

Boss Wang has had the honor of meeting more or less all the prominent figures in the Dongzhou Chamber of Commerce.

Now, two people appeared whom he had never heard of, but were able to mobilize the power of Dongzhou Chamber of Commerce in such a short time. How could Boss Wang not guess that these two people must be from Hualongmen.

Moreover...their status and position in Hualongmen is definitely not low!

Immediately.

"Pfft!"

Boss Wang actually knelt down in front of Yu Linglong and begged bitterly:

"My dear lady, I have failed to recognize the great man."

"In front of you, I am like an ant that you can crush to death at any time. I am insignificant."

"Please show mercy and spare our Wang family!"

Although Boss Wang is known as the richest man in Bibo City, he is not even qualified to join a business giant like the Dongzhou Chamber of Commerce.

Boss Wang has always been in awe of the Dongzhou Chamber of Commerce, not to mention the Hualongmen behind the Dongzhou Chamber of Commerce.

Faced with these behemoths.

The small Wang family is really like an ant.

Boss Wang's sudden kneeling shocked Liu Yan, Zhang Cuilan, Wu Meng and others.

Liu Yan asked with a puzzled look on her face:
"Husband, why are you kneeling to her?"

"She is the one who wants to destroy our family!"

Zhang Cuilan also said with a serious face:
"Boss Wang, my husband will be here soon, and he will definitely give you justice then!"

"Don't be so spineless, stand up now!"

However, Boss Wang turned a deaf ear to what the two said and continued to kneel in front of Yu Linglong, begging with a miserable look on his face.

It seemed as if he would never get up unless Yu Linglong gave in.

Yu Linglong said calmly:

"It was not you who offended me, but your wife."

When these words were spoken, Boss Wang was startled for a moment, then suddenly jumped up from the ground.

Amidst everyone's surprised gazes, Boss Wang raised his fist and punched Liu Yan hard in the face.

Before Liu Yan could react, she was knocked to the ground by a punch.

But even so, Boss Wang was still not satisfied. He jumped up and punched and kicked Liu Yan, cursing as he beat her:
"You loser woman! I was wondering how such a disaster could happen for no reason. Turns out it was caused by you, an idiot!"

"I've told you countless times that there are hidden dragons and crouching tigers in Bibo City. You must be low-key and humble when you act outside. A good wife will bring less trouble to her husband."

"But you, you think you have a little money in your pocket, so you show it off everywhere. Do you really think you are a noble lady?"

"You're trying to kill our entire Wang family! I'm going to beat you to death today, you stinky bitch!"

Boss Wang's punches and kicks were real, and they hit the flesh without mercy. Soon, Liu Yan was beaten to a bloody mess and cried for her parents.

Zhang Cuilan and Wu Meng couldn't bear to watch this scene.

"Quick! Pull him away!"

Zhang Cuilan shouted hurriedly.

As a warrior, Wu Meng immediately wanted to step forward to stop it.

At this time, Liang Jin said in a deep voice:
"I advise you to mind your own business."

Upon hearing this, Wu Meng turned around and stared coldly at Yu Linglong and Liang Jin.

But she knew in her heart that Yu Linglong was the one in charge, so she fixed her eyes on Yu Linglong and said coldly:

"You might be able to cut off these merchants' financial resources and threaten them."

"But you can't threaten me!"

"My Wu family is a martial arts family. We rely on martial arts to make a living. We don't need to rely on business to make a living."

These words finally caused Yu Linglong to glance at her indifferently and said contemptuously:
"What a way to gain a foothold through martial arts."

"If you can take my attack, today's matter will end here."

Liang Jin immediately said:

"How can you kill a chicken with a bull's knife?"

"Why do you need to do it yourself, Miss? Please let me do it for you."

Yu Linglong hummed softly, agreeing to Liang Jin's request.

After all, Liang Jin is a fourth-grade warrior, so dealing with Wu Meng, a small sixth-grade warrior, is a piece of cake.

Due to the huge gap in their realms, Wu Meng was unable to see the two people's cultivation level at all and thought they were talking nonsense.

"Insanity!"

"Let me see if you have the capital to be so arrogant!"

Wu Meng spoke as he slowly walked forward, gathering all his internal energy and preparing to strike fiercely.

Zhang Cuilan saw this and shouted excitedly:

"You two are dead!"

"Let me tell you, Wu Meng's martial arts skills are beyond your imagination. As long as she——"

Before Zhang Cuilan finished speaking, Liang Jin waved his hand casually.

This wave seemed to be understated, just like driving away flies and mosquitoes.

However, with just a casual wave of his hand, a powerful force suddenly attacked Wu Meng.

Wu Menggang felt the strong gust of wind and his expression changed drastically. He exclaimed:
"not good!"

As soon as she shouted, she was hit by this powerful internal force.

"Oh!"

With a dull thud, Wu Meng flew backwards as if he was hit by a speeding truck.

For a moment, the whole audience was silent.

Everyone's jaws nearly dropped to the ground in shock.

Zhang Cuilan and others knew Wu Meng's abilities very well.

But how could such a powerful Wu Meng be defeated so easily?

So, how high are the martial arts skills of these two people in front of me?

After being stunned for a moment, Boss Wang continued to beat Liu Yan with increasing force, becoming more and more ferocious.

At this moment, Zhang Cuilan finally had a bad premonition in her heart.

at this time.

I saw a man running towards me in a hurry on the street.

Seeing this person, Zhang Cuilan seemed to see hope and hurriedly shouted:

"Husband! Come and save me!"

This man was holding his black hat with one hand and holding up his official robe with the other. He was the local magistrate and Zhang Cuilan's husband.

The magistrate at this moment looked extremely anxious and sweating profusely. It was obvious that he had run all the way from the yamen.

When the magistrate came closer, Zhang Cuilan couldn't help but ask:

"Husband, why did you come here alone?"

"Hurry up and bring more people, these two villains are very powerful in martial arts!"

The magistrate's face was full of bitterness.

Didn't he want to bring more people to give him courage?
But for some reason, the yamen runners and constables who usually obeyed his orders seemed to be deaf tonight and ignored him completely.

The magistrate even wanted to mobilize officers and soldiers, but he was unable to do so!
The entire county government, whether officials or clerks, all went home and stayed indoors.

Now, no matter how stupid the magistrate was, he understood that he was in big trouble!

So he didn't even have time to change into casual clothes and rushed over.

When he arrived, he saw Boss Wang beating Liu Yan, and Wu Meng lying on the side of the road vomiting blood, and he became more frightened.

When the magistrate's eyes fell on Yu Linglong and Liang Jin, he hurriedly walked up to them and bowed respectfully, saying:

"I am the magistrate of Bibo County. I wonder who you two are..."

Yu Linglong was still playing with the clay figurine, too lazy to even look at him.

Liang Jin immediately said in a deep voice:
"You are not worthy of knowing my young lady's identity."

When the magistrate heard this, he was not angry at all. Instead, he nodded repeatedly, looking very terrified.

This puzzled Zhang Cuilan who was standing by, and she said:

"Husband, these two are the ones who bully me!"

"Why are you being so polite to them? Help me vent my anger!"

The magistrate smiled awkwardly at Liang Jin and Yu Linglong, then pointed at Zhang Cuilan and said to them:

"This woman is unfaithful to her husband, and I am planning to divorce her."

"I have never lied. Please see, I have even brought my divorce letter with me."

As he spoke, the magistrate hurriedly took out a divorce letter with the ink still wet and wanted to hand it to Yu Linglong and Liang Jin for inspection.

But the two of them ignored it.

Instead, Zhang Cuilan was stunned.

Her husband, the county magistrate, not only did not help her vent her anger, but even wanted to divorce her?

What's the point?
She suddenly shouted frantically:

"You're such a heartless man! I've been with you for so many years, and you want to divorce me just like that?"

"You're actually going to divorce me for two outsiders? I'm going to fight you!"

Zhang Cuilan's shouting and cursing made the magistrate break out in cold sweat on his forehead.

While wiping his sweat, he continued to explain to Liang Jin and Yu Linglong:
"I am just a scholar... I am not good at doing things."

"Otherwise, I would have taught this unchaste woman a lesson, just like Boss Wang did."

"How do you two want to deal with this evil woman? Whether it's beating or killing her, please tell me and I will do it."

When Zhang Cuilan heard this, she felt like she was hit by a hammer and her mind went blank.

She even suspected for a moment that she had heard it wrong.

Do whatever you want, beating or killing?
Her husband was actually willing to attack her for an outsider?!
At this moment, Zhang Cuilan felt numb all over.

At this moment, despair, pain, disappointment and other emotions suddenly occupied her mind.

But she suddenly calmed down.

Because she has figured it all out!

Why did Boss Wang beat Liu Yan? Why was her husband willing to let outsiders punish her?

I'm afraid that's...

This time, she really offended someone she couldn't afford to offend!
When Zhang Cuilan thought of this, she collapsed to the ground instantly, her face as pale as paper, and cold sweat pouring down.
