Chapter 64 Even big players have to win over
  County government lobby.

Morning class begins again on a new day, and each room begins its usual reporting.

Su Shunian, the household manager, was the first to come forward and report: "Your Majesty, after the raid on Liu's house, all the big households in the county were greatly shaken, and people are panicking. If things are not calmed down as soon as possible, it may affect stability. "

"Oh, what are they worried about?" Lin Feng asked.

"They are worried that their property will be confiscated for no reason. I heard that some of them want to go to Jiazhou or even the government office to sue us." Su Shunnian worried.

"This is indeed a problem, Jiang Yin!" Lin Feng shouted.

"The official is here!" Jiang Yin immediately stood up.

"Your execution room should quickly write a notice about the Liu family's crime of colluding with bandits, attach their conclusive evidence, and post it in several busy places in the county to inform the people of the truth so as not to cause unrest." Lin Feng ordered.

Jiang Yin immediately cupped his hands and said: "Understood, our torture chamber will handle it immediately."

Lin Feng glanced at everyone in the hall and then asked: "Is there anything else to report from the other rooms?"

Hu Yanming, the secretary of the workshop, stood up and said: "Your Majesty, the county wall renovation project has begun. As soon as the wages are paid, the people are very enthusiastic about participating in the repair of the city. It will definitely be completed in a month."

"Very good. In the future, whatever projects you organize to build, you must use the method of hiring civilian workers. This way it is easy to recruit people. Only when the people get the money can they spend money in the county, and our business can prosper." Lin Feng took the opportunity again. Popularize common sense about economics.

"No wonder I saw that the business of restaurants and grain stores in the county has improved. It seems that it is because we have paid wages for two projects recently." Hu Yanming from the factory suddenly realized.

"That's the truth. Only when money flows can more wealth be created. You all must remember this, especially Su Shunnian, and don't be a miser." Lin Feng did not forget to educate the stingy Su Dasi.

Su Shunnian immediately blushed and said quickly: "I understand, I understand."

After checking that no one reported anything, Lin Feng announced that the morning meeting was over. He hated having long and stinky meetings the most, talking about things when they had something to do, and then leaving when there was nothing else.

Returning to the county magistrate's office, Lin Jiakang came in and reported: "Li Wanxiang, the head of the Li family, has come to ask for an audience."

"Invite him in." Lin Feng replied.

"Congratulations to Mr. Lin on your promotion to the county title! I am late to congratulate you, please forgive me." Li Wanxiang apologized as he walked in.

"I didn't tell you guys why it's too late. Why did you come here today when you were free? Did you hear some rumors and get scared?" Lin Feng asked.

"Haha, others don't understand the County Lord, how can I understand? As long as we operate in compliance with the law, there is nothing to worry about." Li Wanxiang seems to be very smart and has already mastered the rules that Lin Feng needs to clarify.

"It seems that the head of the Li family is a sensible person. As long as everyone's property is earned through legal operations, I will not only not touch it, but also vigorously protect it. That is, legal private property is sacred and inviolable!" Lin Feng quoted a sentence from later generations without blushing. saying.

"Private property is sacred and inviolable. Your Excellency is so witty and expressive of our feelings. People like us, whose families have a small amount of money, are afraid that the government will take it from us, so we are always on tenterhooks." Li Wanxiang praised. .

"Our county government will naturally vigorously protect honest merchants like Mr. Li, so you don't have to worry." Lin Feng said just this morning that large, law-abiding and obedient merchants still have to be won over. After all, a prosperous market depends on them.

"Lord County Lord, before you went back to Taiyuan Province last time to get married, I asked Quanzi to invite you to have a meal at Li's house. You didn't just come here to flatter me after you were promoted to County Lord. I wonder if you can show me your favor and come over to the house tonight. Get together?"

Seeing that Lin Feng was in a good mood, Li Wanxiang boldly invited him, and was secretly happy that he had burned the cold stove in advance some time ago.

Lin Feng thought for a moment and felt that the Li family was still good. It was necessary to give them a chance to board the Zhenming Group's ship. There was a huge shortage of talents now, and most of the business talents were in the hands of these big companies.

So he replied: "Since your Li family is so sincere, it would be too unkind to not go there again and again. Then I will go to your house to make trouble for you tonight."

"That's great. Thank you, Lord County Lord. I'll go back and prepare first. I'll be waiting for you at my house in the evening." Li Wanxiang said quickly.

"Don't make it too complicated, just eat a little simple." Lin Feng ordered.

Rulin Street, Li Mansion.

This is the yard of the Li family in the county seat. Dinner is arranged here, otherwise it would be too inconvenient to go to Nanxiang, their home base, for a meal.

Before it got dark, Li Wanxiang greeted him at the door early. When he saw Lin Feng approaching, he immediately went up to greet him and said, "Your Majesty, the county magistrate, is here to make our Li family shine." "Come on, don't be polite. , let’s take a look at your Li family’s mansion first.” Lin Feng responded.

Then we walked into Li's house, which is a standard large courtyard with three entrances and nine doors. Dinner is arranged in the second entrance hall. The entire house is decorated with many calligraphy and paintings by literati. It doesn't look very luxurious, but also full of culture. breath.

Lin Feng looked at it as he walked: "Old Li, I can't tell you are still an elegant man. This courtyard is well decorated, and it looks like a farming and reading family."

"Thank you for the compliment, sir. This is all my daughter's arrangement. I'm busy doing business, so I don't know how to be an elegant person." Li Wanxiang replied.

"So you have a talented girl in your family." Lin Feng praised.

"My little girl has liked reading since she was a child, and she also knows a little about music, chess, calligraphy and painting. Let her ask the county magistrate for advice in person later." Li Wanxiang said.

After saying that, a few people arrived at the lobby of Li Mansion. A table of exquisite wine and food had been set up. There were not many places, only four or five were arranged. Of course, not everyone could serve the county magistrate.

Li Wanxiang asked Lin Feng to sit at the top, and he and his son Li Fei were with him. Lin Feng brought Fang Xiaoyu, who acted as a bodyguard, to sit at the bottom.

As soon as a few people sat down, Li Wanxiang picked up a full glass of wine and said, "Your Excellency, the county magistrate, comes to my Li family to attend this family banquet. It is really a great honor for me. Let me propose a toast to you first."

Since he agreed to come to Li's house for dinner, Lin Feng also agreed with them, so he didn't show any airs, just picked up the wine glass and started drinking.

After three drinks, the atmosphere at the wine table gradually became warmer. Li Wanxiang stood up and said, "Sir, you are half drunk, how can you not have fun? Can you please ask my daughter to come out and play a piece of music for you?"

In the Ming Dynasty, gentry officials usually did not drink or drink at their family banquets. They would arrange cultural activities such as musical performances and drinking ceremonies. The Li family asked their daughter to come out to play. This was considered the highest treatment. Lin Feng naturally agreed.

After a while, a girl with a slender figure, bright eyes and white teeth, wearing an emerald green smokey sand floral skirt, came out accompanied by a maid.

She took the guqin from the maid's hand, sat down gracefully with her body slightly blessed, touched the surface of the piano with her jade fingers, flicked her fingers, and a melodious and sad song slowly flowed out.

After playing the song, the lingering sound lingered, and Lin Feng, a layman, seemed to enjoy it very much.

"Bah bang bang," Lin Feng took the lead in applauding and said, "Master Li, your girl is really talented and beautiful. This song will make you not know the taste of meat for three months."

"Thank you for the compliment, sir. Rushi, why don't you come and toast me with a glass of wine? Thank you, sir, for the compliment."

The beauty in the green skirt walked over in small steps.

"Your Majesty, this is my daughter Li Rushi," Li Wanxiang introduced.

Li Rushi came to the table, held up a small glass of wine with her delicate hands, and said to Lin Feng: "Little girl, I would like to offer you a glass of wine, not because you are the county magistrate, but because you are repairing Fugu streets and serving the people wholeheartedly." , I respect your saying, 'I'm afraid of offending the state government, and even more afraid of offending the people' for making decisions for the people!"

When Lin Feng heard this, he felt very happy. The little girl has a high emotional intelligence and is so good at talking. So he happily picked up the wine glass and said, "For Miss Li's praise, I have to drink this glass full!"

The two of them clinked their glasses and drank a glass of wine each. Li Rushi was obviously not good at drinking. After drinking a glass of wine, a blush of rouge appeared on her face, making her look as delicate as a flower.

Lin Feng couldn't help but take another look, and then said: "Thank you so much, Miss Li. It's as poetic as picturesque, the name is beautiful, and the person is even more worthy of her name."

"Thank you for your compliments, sir. I'll take my leave, little lady." Li Rushi was not the one to accompany the drink, so she left after the toast.

However, because of this episode, the atmosphere of the banquet became obviously more harmonious.

 The second female lead appears, should you accept her or not?
