Five years of county magistrate, 100 million catties of grain shocked Li Shimin

Chapter 113 All Poisoned, Wang Chengzhe Takes Temporary Administration of Liaozhou
noon the next day.

Major factories in Liaozhou closed down one after another.

After lunch, the annual vacation begins.

The artificial restaurant has prepared a sumptuous lunch waiting for them.

cement factory.

The huge worker's restaurant was filled with 650 people.

In front of them is a big meal that is rarely eaten at home.

There are fish, chicken, duck, braised pork and so on.

It must be mentioned that after pork appeared on the commercial street, a few people accepted it for consumption.

But what is really popular is that the various factories in Liaozhou City will arrange pork for three or four days every seven days.

According to Fang Yuan's requirements, pork can be made into patties, soup, stir-fried, braised pork, etc.

The factory provides meals, but workers are not allowed to raise opinions. They can eat whatever they want, and they can settle what they don’t eat.

Therefore, pork was gradually accepted by workers, and various methods were introduced, which made pork far tastier than they imagined.

Slowly, pork has been circulated among the common people, and many families have begun to eat it, which is cheap and good.

Standing on the steps, Liu Chengan looked at the crowd of workers, and he was not as flustered as before.

After being in charge of so many people, he slowly discovered the benefits of power, and was addicted to it and couldn't extricate himself.

"This meal at noon is invited by the state lord!"

"Zhou Zun loves you all, and I hope you have a good year!"

"He didn't forget to say to everyone in his busy schedule: Happy New Year, happy family!"

Liu Chengan said loudly.

The sound echoed in the workers' cafeteria.

One sound after another spread to the ears of more than 600 workers present.

"Thank you Zhou Zun!"

The workers on site spoke in unison.

The humble workers' restaurant was rumbling.

Liu Chengan standing on the steps was both excited and shocked.

It's getting more and more tidy, it's really scary, and I'm afraid it won't be a problem to charge forward.

"it is good!"

"Everyone, please eat!"

"Happy New Year everyone!"

Liu Chengan said loudly.

The thought of continuing to speak stopped.

It's cold, and the food gets colder if you say more.

"Happy New Year, deputy director!"

"Master Zhou, Happy New Year!"

The cement factory workers shouted excitedly, and the meal was officially opened.

This situation appears in all factory restaurants in Liaozhou.

The workers ate the richest meal in their lives with gratitude to Fang Yuan.

Time passed slowly.

The workers in the canteens of major factories talked and laughed.

Some of them knew in advance that today was a holiday, so they brought some wine over a few days ago.

At this time, it is very pleasant to chat with the workers, eat meat, and talk about the world.

Ah Lei from Sanjia Village is like this, since Gouzi joined Fang Yuan's guard team, he entered the cement factory.

Because it was close to home, he went to and from home every day, and brought some wine from home last night.

"Our Liaozhou is really lucky to have people like Zhou Zun here!"

A Lei drank wine, clinked glasses with the workers, and sighed.

"Yes, Zhou Zun has only been here for half a year, and our lives have completely changed."

"If it was placed half a year ago, how could we dare to imagine what it would be like to have money in our pockets?"

Workers sigh.

They were echoed by everyone at the scene.

Those who entered the cement factory were all low-level workers.

They used to make a living by farming or helping rich people do something.

But there is almost no money to take, and it is already very good to earn some food or something.

But now, there are more than ten factories in Liaozhou, each factory starts with 500 people, and the people who work in the factories start to live a good life.

After another two or three years of this kind of life, in the future, parents will provide for the elderly, sons will marry wives, girls’ dowry, etc. will no longer be a headache.

The crowd sighed.

I am grateful to Fang Yuan from the bottom of my heart.

Gaoge Liaozhou came to a master Qingtian.

Suddenly, the worker across from Ah Lei clutched his stomach, his expression changed.

"Ouch, my stomach hurts suddenly."

Workers groaned in pain.

"Did you eat badly yesterday?"

Ali asked concerned.

"I do not know."

The coworkers groaned.

Then suddenly the one next to it did the same.

Almost a moment later, more people expressed stomach pains.

Alei watched the workers shouting for stomach pains, and suddenly felt that the situation was unusual.

He was about to stand up, but at this moment, Aleigh's stomach suddenly hurt, as if his intestines were knotted.

"Isn't this food poisonous?!"

Alley was shocked.

I want to report to Liu Chengan.

But suddenly, he felt black in front of his eyes and passed out.

Soon, the first group of people who had drunk on the scene passed out.

After a while, most of those who hadn't had a drink passed out of a coma.

"Poisoned, food poisoned."

A small number of workers panicked.

They appear to be minimally symptomatic or asymptomatic.

Ran out of the worker's restaurant in a panic, ran to the financial office and so on.

Liu Chengan was in the finance office at this time, and after hearing the news, he rushed to the worker's restaurant as quickly as possible.

But when he saw that most of the workers in the huge restaurant were unconscious and collapsed, his brain went blank with a bang.

Similar things happened in other factories.

Iron and steel factories, weaving workshops, pottery factories, tea shops, etc., poisoning incidents occurred in all factories.

The workers were shocked and ran away in a panic. The news spread quickly, and the people in Liaozhou City soon knew the news.

"My God, what happened?"

"How come all the factory workers are poisoned?"

"I heard that it was food poisoning, and they celebrated the New Year with extra food today."

People panicked in their hearts and soon knew what happened.

More than 5000 people fell into a coma due to food poisoning, and their life and death were unknown. People suddenly felt that the sky was falling.

Many people rushed to tell each other, and some family members rushed to the place where the factory was located immediately.

Some family members were more sober, so they took the doctor with them and rushed to the factory as quickly as possible.

For a while, the city of Liaozhou was in chaos, and everyone had panic on their faces, as if the end was coming.

Soon, a piece of news came out: the meals in the major factories were all invited by Governor Fang Yuan.

"Originally everyone was fine after eating, why did Inspector Fang Yuan get poisoned after inviting him to eat today?"

"Inspector Fang Yuan left early yesterday, but invited the workers to dinner today, why didn't he invite them yesterday?"

"Is there something tricky here? Did Fang Yuan poison the food? Who can give an answer?"

A new public opinion emerges.

People began to suspect the cause of food poisoning.

He even suspected that Fang Yuan poisoned him intentionally, and then left early.

Otherwise, it is obvious that today is the holiday, so there is no need to leave a day earlier.

The minds of most people are ignorant, and they are easily controlled by public opinion.

After hearing the public opinion, they may or may not have thought about it, and they feel that it is quite right.

As for the governor, some courageous people gathered at the gate of the governor's mansion to seek justice and an explanation.

Except for Fang Yuan and Zhang San, other officials and state officials in the Governor's Mansion are still on duty today.

Qi Cao joined the army, as the seven highest-ranking officials at present, and immediately held an emergency meeting.

Zheng Jiu and the others were not eligible to attend the meeting, and stayed at the door to appease the emotions of the people.

Regarding what happened suddenly today, everyone was anxious to think of the ants on the pot.

Time passed in the blink of an eye, and the meeting of Qicao joining the army was not over yet.

But the number of people at the gate of the Governor's Mansion has increased.

"Huang Da, Zhao Ergou, I suspect that this poisoning incident is not simple, it must be instigated by someone secretly!"

Zheng Jiu whispered to the two captains.

"I think so too, do you have any plans?"

The two seconded.

Something doesn't feel right.

Fang Yuan loves the people like a son, and works for the welfare of the people of Liaozhou.

Before leaving, I thought about how the people in Liaozhou could be poisoned.

There must be some ghosts and ghosts playing tricks in the dark, intentionally slandering Fang Yuan.

"Before Zhou Zun left, he told me to go to Fang's mansion if he encountered any uncertainties."

"I decided to take a hundred state officials to go. Huang Da, you take a hundred state officials to guard the governor's mansion. Zhao Ergou takes a hundred state officials to visit the city to see what needs to be managed. Let's divide our forces so as not to be controlled by others. .”

Zheng Jiu said in a deep voice.

"it is good!"

"agree!"

Huang Da and Zhao Ergou responded one after another.

Soon, Zheng Jiu and Zhao Ergou left with two hundred state officials.

After the two left, Qicao's meeting to join the army finally ended and he appeared at the gate of the governor's mansion.

"Daddy Huang, where are Zheng Jiu and Zhao Ergou?"

Sihu Liu Wenshi said in a deep voice.

"My lord, let's disperse."

"One side went to Fang Mansion, and the other side wandered around the city."

Zhao Ergou respectfully said.

"Confused, who told them to leave early?!"

Liu Wenshi said angrily.

Zhao Ergou frowned and didn't speak.

"You send someone to send a letter to Huang Da, asking him to send more people to the commercial street in the north of the city."

"Send a letter to Zheng Jiu, asking him to allocate some of his staff to calm the emotions of the people in the city."

Seeing that Zhao Ergou didn't speak, Liu Wenshi changed the subject.

"Yes!"

Zhao Ergou responded immediately.

Call a state official to go to work.

There are already hundreds of people at the gate, and the noise is endless.

"Fathers and elders, don't be impatient, we will find out soon!"

Liu Wenshi stood up and said in a good voice.

"Did Fang Yuan poison it?"

"He poisoned and absconded, what kind of heart does he have?"

"Let Fang Yuan come back, let him give us justice!"

A scruffy man with thinning hair shouted.

He stood at the front of the crowd and spoke the loudest.

Before Qicao joined the army, he cursed at him.

"Maliciously slander Zhou Zun, I will take it down and put him in prison!"

The judge stood up, pointed at the man and scolded.

The scene was quite quiet, but soon returned to its original state.

"I'm just asking a question, is the governor's mansion so overbearing?"

The sloppy man yelled without fear.

"Take it!"

Justice's face darkened, and he drank again.

"Take it!"

Huang Da gave the order immediately.

Several state officials walked out and walked towards the sloppy man.

The sloppy man at the scene was not only not afraid, but even shook his fist at the state officials.

However, he didn't get any benefits. He was punched by the state official with a black eye circle, and he screamed in pain.

"Too deceiving!"

"The Governor's Mansion is rampant!"

Some people shouted.

The atmosphere was immediately aroused.

Some people rushed to the state officials.

Huang Da's eyes turned cold, and more people were dispatched.

For a while, the scene became chaotic, and the people and state officials fought fiercely.

Even with bare hands, the people at the scene were still tenacious in their resistance.

"stop!"

Suddenly, there was a loud shout.

Dozens of yamen servants appeared, each showing their sabers.

The fierce fighting gradually stopped, and the state officials retreated to the gate of the governor's mansion one after another.

Huang Da frowned and stared at the person coming, put his right hand on the handle of the knife and let go.

Liaoshan County Magistrate Wang Chengzhe!
"Magistrate Wang, you came just in time, hurry up and decide for us."

"These state officials deceive people so much that they can't even speak a word, as if they are bandits and robbers."

The slovenly man ran to Wang Chengzhe, knelt down on the ground and cried loudly.

More people appeared at the scene, attracted by the fierce fight just now, watching from a distance.

Liaozhou City is in chaos now, there are people everywhere in the city, and some people even take this opportunity to fight for food and so on.

"This countryman, get up quickly."

"Don't worry, if Governor Fang is not here, there will be someone in Liaozhou who will make decisions for you."

Wang Chengzhe helped him up and comforted him.

Then he turned his head to look at Liu Wenshi and the others.

"Fang Inspector has just left, and you treat the people of Liaozhou like this?"

Wang Chengzhe said with a serious face.

"Meet the county magistrate Wang."

"The county magistrate Wang is not in Liaoshan County, why is he showing up in Liaozhou City?"

Liu Wenshi frowned and said in a deep voice.

Tang law stipulates that county magistrates are not allowed to leave the county under their jurisdiction without authorization.

"I just happened to find Fang Inspector for something, and when I arrived, I was told that Fang Inspector had asked for leave yesterday."

"But that's not the point. Liaozhou is in such a mess. You don't think hard about recovery, but suppress the people here? What an authority!"

Wang Chengzhe said in a deep voice.

The appearance of pleading for the people.

"Someone has been sent to investigate."

"Also send state officials to appease the emotions of the people."

Liu Wenshi's expression became ugly, and he said in a deep voice.

"Send the state officials to appease? Will the state officials appease people?"

"Is it like now, using fists and big knives to appease?"

Wang Chengzhe asked loudly.

"No, it's not."

"We are sincerely appeasing!"

Liu Wenshi was shocked, feeling that the hat being covered was terrible.

"To appease, please ask the seniors of the noble family to appease, please ask the famous family to appease!"

"Sending the state officials can play a soothing role. I suspect that you, the Seven Caos who join the army, will not govern."

"Get out of the way, I want to enter the governor's office, and temporarily manage Liaozhou for the governor Fang, so that Liaozhou city can restore its previous appearance as soon as possible."

Wang Chengzhe said in a deep voice.

Walk up the steps of the governor's mansion, wanting to enter the governor's mansion.

"stop!"

Zhao Ergou blocked it.

"If you block me, you are blocking Liaozhou from returning to normal. Can you afford the consequences?"

"Take control as soon as possible before there is a complete riot, otherwise the governor Fang will not be able to save him when he comes back."

"Are you really good at governing? You don't want to lose your official position because of this?"

Wang Chengzhe looked at Zhao Ergou coldly, then looked at Liu Wenshi and the others.

"This"

"Please invite County Magistrate Wang to preside over it."

Liu Wenshi and others looked at each other, whispered in private, and finally made a decision.

"Sihu!"

Zhao Ergou's face changed drastically, and he couldn't believe it.

"Can you govern?"

Liu Wenshi shouted in a low voice.

When Zhao Ergou heard this, he opened his mouth and finally stepped aside.

"This official has served three county magistrates and has rich experience. It is not a problem at all at the moment."

"Zhao Ergou despises his superiors and suspends all his duties. The state officials under his command are temporarily under the command of Qi Cao's army."

"Go, in the name of this official, I invite Wenxi Pei, Xiexian Liu, Fenyin Xue, Liaoshan Wang, Xiaxian Sima, and Longmen Zhao to come forward."

Wang Chengzhe said as he walked, and soon came to the innermost position of governor.

But he didn't sit down, but moved a stool to sit on the side, and arranged them in an orderly manner.

Qicao joined the army and looked at each other in blank dismay, but in the end they could only obey orders, because they couldn't invite the prominent families in Hedong.

Although Zhao Ergou was aggrieved, for the sake of the stability of Liaozhou City, he could only obediently give up his rights.

Soon, following Wang Chengzhe's order, prominent families in Liaozhou City appeared one after another, and the chaos gradually stopped.

After about a stick of incense, the yamen servant brought by Wang Chengzhe came in to report.

"My lords, a worker from a cement factory reported that he saw Governor Fang poisoning all the factories with his own eyes."
