There is a space for passenger planes in the late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 51 Lin Feng is suspended

After five or six days of traveling, Magistrate Zhang Da finally returned to Fugu.

The carriage entered the city gate and soon turned to the most prosperous Rulin Street in the county. The potholes on the street where the sewage originally spattered have been filled in. The shop signs on both sides of the street have also been newly replaced. Along the street The houses have also been painted, looking very new and tidy, showing a prosperous appearance.

Magistrate Zhang Da couldn't help but doubt his own eyes, and asked doubtfully: "Is this my Fugu County?" How come the streets have changed drastically after being away for a month or so.

Zhang Yingjie returned to the county government office in amazement.

"County Lord, are you back?" Lin Feng came over to say hello as soon as he got the news.

"You're back, why are the streets in the county town completely new?"

"County Lord, didn't I just report to you before you left? We are going to renovate the two main streets in the county and the agricultural market. Now they are basically completed. We are still waiting for you to preside over the opening ceremony of the agricultural market." Lin Feng Take the opportunity to report.

"Yuanshan is really capable. He completed such a large project so quickly. I must go and take a closer look. Oh, what a pity..." Magistrate Zhang sighed as he spoke.

When Lin Feng heard that the situation was not good, it was a pity that nothing good would happen next, so he asked: "My lord, what happened?"

Zhang Zhixian hesitated for a moment, then decided to tell the truth: "That Feng Tongzhi from the state government refused to give up. He must keep an eye on your guard Ding Yingqi's negligence in his duties, which led to his suicide. Zhang Zhizhou couldn't defeat him, so in the end the state government decided to give it to you." It’s useless for me to argue against a suspension.”

"Causing him to commit suicide? This means I arranged Ding Yingqi's suicide out of fear of guilt." Although it was arranged by Lin Feng, he couldn't admit it.

"That's what I said. Ding Yingqi committed suicide and it was easier for him. What else can be held accountable? The main reason is that you offended Feng Tongzhi last time. He seems to be a man who must retaliate." Magistrate Zhang also said helplessly.

"So even if I'm suspended now, I don't have to come to the county office anymore?" Lin Feng asked rhetorically.

"Yes, but it should be temporary. Don't take the distant mountains to heart. The county government will come when it's due. It's just a nominal attention." Magistrate Zhang could only console him.

"Your Majesty, since I came to Fugu, I have been working hard every day and haven't had much rest, so I will take the opportunity to rest." Lin Feng doesn't care. Anyway, he still has Zhenming Group on hand, and no one in Fugu will do it now. Don't give yourself face.

After saying this, Lin Feng took his leave. Magistrate Zhang wanted to persuade him to stay, but felt that there was nothing much to say, so he could only wave his hands as farewell.

Soon, the news of Lin Feng's suspension spread throughout the county government. That's how it is in a small place, if there is any disturbance, it will spread.

"Sir, Magistrate Zhang is back. Will the opening ceremony of the farmers' market be held as scheduled tomorrow?" Su Shunnian came over to report first.

"Don't you know I'm suspended?"

"Just heard about it."

"Why are you reporting here after you already know it? Go to the county magistrate for instructions."

"Aren't we used to it, sir, the state government is messing around, and we all have a strong point in our hearts. Let alone suspension, even if I am dismissed, I still have to listen to you." In these years of love, people have begun to ignore the orders of the state government. Take it seriously.

"Go away, I need to take a rest. I'm warning you, don't bother me if you have official business recently." Lin Feng really wanted to drive Su Shunnian away, even if he was suspended from work, he wouldn't let him take a rest.

"Sir, how can this farmer's market be opened without you?"

"Why not? The majority of merchants have been looking forward to moving into the new market for a long time. Let's do it as soon as possible." Lin Feng couldn't stand it anymore and could only send him away with an order.

As soon as Sun Sushunnian left, Jiang Yin from the execution room came over: "Sir, it's my fault that I didn't prepare Ding Yingqi's file thoroughly, which caused you to be held accountable by the state government. Please beat me and scold me, my lord."

"It's none of your business. The main reason is that someone from the state government is targeting me. You should continue to handle the Ding Yingqi case. If not, the state government will have to come over and re-investigate." Lin Feng said.

"Don't worry, sir. The facts of this case are all there. They can't find any problems." Jiang Yin said.

"No matter what the people above are like, your torture chamber is in charge of the punishment, so you still have to stick to the bottom line and not let the people point their noses and scold you." Lin Feng explained again.

"Sir, this is exactly what I admire about you. I will stick to the bottom line like you." Jiang Yin responded firmly.

Immediately afterwards, Hu Yanming, the clerk of the workshop, Sun Jiewu, the leader of the strong squad, and others also came over. These people had nothing to do, and they just came to show their loyalty.

"Sir, it was only under your command that I truly realized the value of setting up workshops in the county. You can't just ignore us."

"Sir, you single-handedly brought up the Zhuangban. As long as you speak, our brothers in the Zhuangban will listen to you."

……

Throughout the morning, people from the county government came in and out of the county magistrate's office. Most of them came over to report something when they obviously had nothing to do. They didn't take Lin Feng's suspension seriously at all.

However, there were also some people who disappeared instantly. For example, Chen Jianli from the official office and Jia Yonggui from the military office were both close confidants of County Magistrate Zhang. Naturally, they would not come to express their loyalty at this time.

To Lin Feng's surprise, Luo Jing, the head of the prison team he promoted, pretended not to know and didn't come over for a day. It seemed that he was planning to end the relationship with Lin Feng.

Nanxiang, Li family.

"Dad, I heard that Lin County Prime Minister has been suspended. Let's not have any contact with him anymore." Li Fei, the son of the Li family, said. “Suspension or removal?”

"If you ask clearly, you will be suspended."

"For what reason?"

"It's said that he was negligent on the issue of Ding Yingqi's suicide."

"Son, please quickly send a letter to Lin County Cheng, saying that our Li family wants to treat him to a meal." Li Wanxiang ordered.

"Dad, Lin Feng has been suspended from work, do you still want to invite him to dinner?" Li Fei asked in confusion.

"You don't know this. What's the icing on the cake compared to providing help in times of need? Moreover, this Lin County Prime Minister is only suspended. With his ability, I think he will be reinstated sooner or later. Besides, even if he no longer serves as this official, he is still worthy of us. respect.

Is there any official who does not commit corruption when working on projects nowadays? He asked us to renovate the county's agricultural market without paying a penny, and he was very flexible. This was the first time I had seen such an official in my life. Even if he was dismissed, I would still treat him to a meal. This man still needs to know how to be grateful. "Li Wanxiang taught his son the Tao earnestly.

"Dad, I understand, I'll go and invite you right away." Li Fei replied.

Soon, Lin Feng received an invitation from Li Fei. He saw that the Li family was quite smart. Others generally looked down on others and praised them, but they were quite good at burning cold stoves.

However, he still declined the Li family's invitation. Now that he wanted to go to the Li family for dinner, he asked Li Fei to send a message to his father. The Li family accepted the idea and let them do the project on the Fudong compound.

In the evening, Lin Feng convened a meeting with the backbone of Zhenming Group.

"President, I heard that you have been suspended?" Li Xiongzhen also got the news.

"I said you are quite well informed." Lin Feng responded.

"I just said that a person as talented as the president would do nothing to undermine the county magistrate. It would just waste money making money. Otherwise, we should just stop doing it. It would be better to run our Zhenming Group well." Fang Dashan continued.

"Why don't we just do the opposite? This imperial court cannot even accommodate a good official like the president. Our Minzhuang team will definitely listen to you." Fang Tiezhu was very loyal and the most direct.

"I will obey the president's advice on everything, no matter what the hell he says." Zhang Tiechui added one in agreement.

"Brothers, please be patient. This suspension is only temporary. The state government will definitely give an explanation. Let's take advantage of this period to develop the strength of Zhenming Group.

As I have said long ago, the official position can be taken away as soon as the court says. Therefore, I have been asking you to stay outside the county government office. This Zhenming Group belongs to us and no one can take it away. " Lin Feng said.

"Yes, the court is too unreliable and we must rely on ourselves." Li Xiongzhen agreed.

"During this period, we must focus on strengthening the construction of the group's guard team. Without the protection of force, the group's industry is just a piece of fat meat, and anyone may come to take a bite. Dashan, you have recently increased the guard team to 100 people. Don't be afraid of spending money. Money." Lin Feng arranged.

"Understood." Fang Dashan replied.

"The defense at Sitong Village must be strengthened, and at the same time, let Zhao Zhixin lead the blacksmith shop to quickly build a lightning-type fire gun to be prepared to deal with various emergencies."

"President, are you preparing for a rebellion?" Fang Dashan asked with interest.

"Don't think about the pros and cons of these things. Do your own thing first. If you have the strength, you can do anything. If you don't have the strength, it's all empty talk." Lin Feng scolded.

"Hey, don't you have to prepare early!" Fang Dashan said with a silly smile.

"The president means to act without saying anything. Now is not a good time to raise a flag for rebellion." Li Xiongzhen added.

"Xiong Zhen is still smart. We haven't reached the point where the government is forcing the people to rebel, and the time is indeed not right. But if others come to bully us, it depends on whether we agree with the gun in our hands." Lin Feng affirmed.

"President, I understand what you mean. How about you personally take care of the group's affairs during this period? There are many things that I don't understand," Li Xiongzhen said.

"It's still too sensitive for me to come directly to the group now. Anyway, everything is on track. Xiongzhen, please take a good look at it. I'm going to go back to Taiyuan during this time to pick up my mother and my little sister."

It has been almost three months since I came to Fugu, and I still miss my relatives at home very much. Lin Feng feels that it is time to bring them here, otherwise if something happens, they will definitely become the enemy's weakness to coerce him.

"Go back to Taiyuan, how about I go with you." Li Xiongzhen said immediately.

"No, you stay here to look after the house, otherwise I won't feel at ease. I've been suspended. Some people will definitely be ready to do something. Someone must be here to take charge of the overall situation." Lin Feng said.

"Okay, I will take good care of my home." Li Xiong said.

"If anyone dares to stretch out his dirty hands, I'll chop him into pieces!" Lin Feng was also furious and ordered unceremoniously.

"Understood!" everyone responded in unison.
