Chapter 157 The Conscience of the Industry

Chapter 157 The Conscience of the Industry
In the West Yamen of Pujiang County Office, in the study of the Hall of Classics and History, Wang Xian sat opposite the young master Xianyun in black.

"It's very clear." Wang Xian said in a deep voice: "I asked Wu Shaoyuan's business partners, and they said that once the goods were seized by Chun'an, Wu Shaoyuan went to the Chun'an county government office, and obediently let them go. From now on, I dare not stop their family's boat again." After a pause, he said, "What ability does a boy have that can make other counties dare not stop him? His identity as Jinyiwei is the most reasonable answer."

"Isn't he sent by Zhu Jiu's gang?" Xian Yun frowned, Master Hu meant to exclude Jin Yiwei from this matter.

"No." Wang Xian shook his head and said with a smile: "That He Chang, do you still remember? It's his situation."

"Yeah." Xianyun understood: "The Zheng family should know, right?"

"Probably already known." Wang Xiandao: "Wu Tianxi and Zheng Tang were good friends from the same village back then, and his identity should not be a secret to Zheng Tang. Later, Wu Tianxi died early, and Wu Shaoyuan was young, so the Zheng family took over the position of food chief of the Wu family. It is precisely because of this relationship that the Zheng family accepted the marriage proposal of the Wu family and let Wu Shaoyuan marry him." After a pause, he said, "I just didn't expect that Wu Shaoyuan would know something from Zheng Mai's son, and then he wanted to use the Zheng family as an investment." Name certificate, return to Jinyiwei... that's why he has to disappear."

There is one more thing that Wang Xian didn't say, which can also explain why Wu Shaoyuan didn't touch his beautiful and beautiful wife?He is not a Tianxie or a rabbit, but he wants to draw a clear line with the Zheng family, so as not to be confused when the time comes.Maybe it was because of this abnormality that the Zheng family suspected him.

"In that case, will that person leave Pujiang?"

"Not likely." Wang Xian shook his head and said, "I've thought about it carefully. There is a reason why that person is hiding in Pujiang instead of elsewhere."

"Besides the first one in the south of the Yangtze River here, which can provide him with cover, what else is there?" Xian Yun asked in a deep voice.

"The terrain here." Wang Xian said in a deep voice: "Pujiang River, and even Jinhua Mansion are covered with mountains, leading directly to Fujian and Jiangxi. Once there is police, he can quickly hide in the mountains and flee to Jiangxi and Fujian. He is not afraid of being rounded up by the army."

"En." Xianyun said softly: "If it's safe, it's actually safer to go to Annan, Yunnan, Guizhou."

Wang Xian shook his head, not answering his question.In fact, the reason is very simple...there is too remote, and going there is tantamount to self-exile.

"Then our next step is to find this Zheng Hui?" Xian Yun asked in a deep voice.

"Yes, but it's very difficult." Wang Xiandao: "Even if Zheng Wu's family keeps tight-lipped, the Zheng family will hide Zheng Hui. We can only relax outside and tighten inside, and wait for him to appear. At the same time, let's see if Zheng Wu's will come." Surprise us."

"Stay on the sidelines and wait for the rabbit?" Xian Yun frowned slightly. "Didn't you say you want to fish?"

"Wait a minute, you won't be able to catch fish now." Wang Xian yawned and said, "I'm asleep, and I'll have dark circles under my eyes if I stay up late."

"You are a man." Xian Yun said speechlessly.

"Does everyone have a love for beauty?" Wang Xian ignored him and went straight to the back room to sleep.

Xianyun meditates on the outer bed.In a dangerous place and full of dangers, in order to protect Wang Xian's safety, his brother and sister took turns to stay on duty overnight...

.

Although he said he wanted to sit on the sidelines and wait for the rabbit, Wang Xian couldn't be idle, because the time for the county to collect the autumn tax was coming... The scenes of last year were still fresh in his memory. .But he seems to be overthinking...

Before Wang Xian had time to send people to the countryside to collect collections, the food chiefs of the various districts over there had come to the Yamen to report that all the tax and grain had been collected and shipped to the county, and the government was asked to go and inspect.After Wang Xian heard this, he couldn't close his mouth for a long time, thinking that when he was in Fuyang, collecting a tax would be more difficult than killing those grain chiefs, but here it is good, and there is no need to urge him.The two counties are Lin County, why is there such a big gap?

Out of his suspicious heart, Wang Xian took the housekeepers to check it, and after checking it, there was absolutely no phenomenon of shortfall or shoddy, let alone sand, sand and the like.And he is still very sensible... He should give the yamen bad rules and regulations, no less.

Not just one grain chief, but all the grain chiefs in the whole county are like this, which can be called the conscience of the industry!As a result, Wang Dianshi, who wanted to show his strength and then stand up, was hanging in the air, unable to get up and down, and he was very dissatisfied with his desires.

"Second Master, are you all right?" Seeing that he wanted to count the rice grains, several food chiefs asked cautiously.

"No problem." Wang Xian got off the boat with a dark face.

"I'll be waiting in Xinghualou to prepare some thin wine, please second master to show you?" the food chiefs said with a flattering smile.

"I'm tired," Wang Xian didn't give face, he just said to Shuai Hui: "Go for me, don't let others waste it." After speaking, he got on the sedan chair and went back to the yamen.

"Yes." Shuai Hui both agreed, and after Wang Xian got up the sedan chair, he smiled at the chiefs, "Do you think highly of our brothers?"

"What's the matter, you two! Of course you can look up to it!" Zhongliang Zhang is so sweaty, what is the background of these two boys?How come you're so sloppy.One of them, Zheng Liu, was given the task to get close to the two of them, so he naturally flattered: "I wanted to get close to the second master for a long time, but the two of you stayed close to the second master for a while, and never had the chance."

"Isn't this a chance?" Shuai Hui laughed and said, "What are you waiting for?"

"Please get in the car!" The food chiefs surrounded the two of them, took several carriages, and came to the best Xinghua Building in the county. The kid was so elated.After the banquet, Zheng Liu invited the two of them to Hongcui Pavilion, the best brothel in the county, to continue their night reading with Yingyingyanyan, Wenxiang nephrite, sleeping flowers and willows, and not wanting to return... , Wang Daguan, who memorizes by rote, does not know how many times happier he will be.

.

Two large butter candles illuminated the study room brightly. Wang Xianduan was sitting at the table, copying a Cheng Wen.Ever since Mr. Wei taught him the fast-track Dafa, Wang Xian insisted on reciting model essays...recite one in the morning and evening in his spare time, and take time to recite one in his busy schedule.Even on the day he went to Zhengzhai Town, he finished his homework on the way.

Wang Xian showed the energy he had in the examination and annotation meeting back then, and he also had a scientific memory method, so he didn't feel how hard it was.But in the eyes of others, his actions are inconceivable... Although Su Laoquan was angry at the beginning, he also studied since he was a child, but he didn't work hard.Wang Xian, on the other hand, has no foundation at all. He only started reading the Four Books and Stereotypes at the age of 27. Is it too late?
What's more, Su Laoquan failed the exam all his life, and later he couldn't bear it, so he was rewarded as an official... And Wang Xian is now an official. Although he is not a first-rate, he can move normally. It is also possible to be promoted to the magistrate in the future.Why bother to hang your head from the beam and pierce your buttocks, suffer this crime, and squeeze that single-plank bridge?
Ling Xiao sat cross-legged on the official hat chair, with his arms resting on the back of the chair, tilting his head and looking at Wang Xian for half an hour.Wang Dianshi couldn't take it anymore, so he didn't raise his head and asked, "Do I have flowers on my face?"

"There's ashes." Ling Xiao giggled and said, "Little Xianzi, let me ask you, why do you still study so hard?"

"Of course it's for the examination of talents, is it still for learning?" Wang Xian made no secret of his purpose.

"What are you doing in the test of talent? You failed in the exam..." Ling Xiao made a special effort to find out, and found that compared with Dianshi, talent is useless.

"Hey, don't hit people, okay?" Wang Xian glared at her depressedly and said, "Although what you said is the truth." After all, there are many places for scholars. I have never expected it... This is Zhejiang!In the death group of the Ming imperial examination, rote memorization alone is useless...

"Then why do you want to be a scholar?" Ling Xiao said with a smile: "Besides, don't you hate sour talents?"

"Personal perception is one thing, and how to actually do it is another." Wang Xian shook his head: "You guys who were born with a golden spoon in their mouths won't understand."

"How do I understand if you don't tell me?" Ling Xiao leaned forward and approached Wang Xiandao: "Tell me..."

"There's nothing to say. People like me who come from the bottom must seize every opportunity to make progress, so as not to be trampled under their feet." Wang Xian smelled the fragrance of a girl, and pulled away without a trace, gently He sighed and said, "Although being a scholar in the exam has no direct benefits for me, it can make those Shangguans who come from the right track stop thinking about suppressing me. After all, I am also a scholar..."

"Who ever suppressed you?" Ling Xiao waved his fist angrily and said, "Tell me, this girl will avenge you!"

"It will be too late when you are suppressed, just plan ahead." Wang Xian said lightly.

"You are so tired." Ling Xiao rested her chin on the back of the chair and sighed, "I think happiness is the most important thing."

"Of course you can think that way." Feeling the tomboy's concern, Wang Xian showed a warm smile and said, "I also said the same to my Yinling..."

"Yinling," as soon as the silver bell was mentioned, Ling Xiao became excited.The two got along briefly in Fuyang County, and the two little girls who were similar in age and personality soon became good sisters. "I really miss her."

"Then go find her, she must miss you very much." Wang Xian also regarded her as his younger sister, and said softly: "Pujiang County, you are tired of playing too."

"I'm really tired of playing." Ling Xiao doesn't like Pujiang, because people here don't let her eat free food, don't treat her as a little ancestor, and don't have a bunch of girls to play with her.After all, Wang Xiancai hadn't been here for long, and apart from punishing his subordinates, he really had no sense of presence in the county... and Pujiang County, after all, was surnamed Zheng.

"Then let's go back." Wang Xian said, "It just so happens that there is a grain ship going to Hangzhou these two days. Come to my house to play for two days, and then go back to the mountains to celebrate the New Year."

"Uh..." Ling Xiao was quite moved, but quickly shook his head and said: "No, I promised Yinling that I will protect you."

"There is your brother..." Wang Xian couldn't help being touched, what a Yinling, brother didn't love you for nothing... This guy is not guilty, he just loves to bully little Yinling!
"My brother has an errand for him." The orange candlelight illuminated Lingxiao's eyebrows and eyes clearly, and she rarely said solemnly: "I don't necessarily have to be by your side at critical moments..."

Wang Xian's heart was shocked, so this little girl understood...

 And ha, I urgently ask for a monthly pass, I'm going to be blown up, I'm going to be blown up... I scream, my voice changes... I'm going to be blown up...
