Chapter 47 The Slowly Coming Crisis

What Ouyang Yuan mentioned was to take Ziwan, but as Ziwan was the daughter of Zishang, even if Ouyang Kanggui was the governor and Ouyang Yuan was the son of the governor, she would not be able to take it. The difference between a concubine and a wife.

Ouyang Kang knew that it would be profitable to marry Ziwan, so he acted much more swiftly on the profitable matter. Not long after Ouyang Yuan left the other courtyard, the butler, old man Li, came to the other courtyard.

Old man Li is the name of the housekeeper. Although he is named old man, he is not old. He is only 40 years old. Old man Li's father is a well-educated person. The name he chose for his son is also vulgar and has deep meaning. He hopes that his son will He is a man, and he will be a man when he gets old, so he was named Old Man, and he got the name of Old Man Li.

"Sir, what are your orders?"

"Old man, please help me to check the situation of Miss Ziwan in the Yutian Guild Hall, mainly to check her marriage situation."

Old Man Li replied: "Understood, Master."

"Old man, this matter needs to be done quickly. You go and invite Chang Shi and tell me that I have something to discuss." Ouyang Kang said something and motioned Old Man Li to leave.

Ouyang Kang is drinking tea leisurely with his eyes closed, but he is not resting his mind, but thinking. Drinking tea and thinking about things with his eyes closed is a habit that Ouyang Kang has developed over the years, because thinking about problems in this way makes him calmer, while Calmness can make people feel more confident, and superiors need this feeling.

After a long time, Yangquan Governor Shi Chen Tonggu rushed to the governor's mansion, and Ouyang Kang met him in his study in casual clothes.

Chen Tong is nearly fifty years old, he is old-fashioned, ignorant of human feelings, and unsophisticated, but it is this kind of temperament that makes him very good at handling documents. For a person with a boring life, it is naturally easier to deal with such boring matters as documents.

"The humble Chen Tonggu pays homage to your lord!" Chen Tonggu bowed his hands together, the position of his palms together, and the curvature of his waist, all strictly followed the ancient etiquette.

"Tonggu, sit down and talk."

"Thank you, Sir, for giving me the seat." Chen Tonggu hung his hands lightly on his knees, and sat down very upright on the chair beside him, conforming to the ancient rules everywhere.

"Tonggu, I've thought about it for a long time, and I want to set up a hunting guild to manage all kinds of chaos in the hunting guild in this state. What do you think?"

After pondering for a while, Chen Tonggu said: "I think the idea of ​​adults using guilds to regulate the industry is very appropriate, but the rules and structure of this guild must be proper."

"That's why I invited you here today. I hope Tonggu can make plans for the establishment of the Beast Hunting Guild in this state."

Chen Tonggu got up and cupped his hands and said: "Your Excellency has a destiny, and you should do your best in a humble position."

Ouyang Kang took Chen Tonggu's clasped hands and said with a smile, "Then I'll leave this to you."

"My lord, you are polite. There is an old saying that the food king's salary is loyal to the king. This is a matter of the humble position. The humble position will resign first, and after the completion of the task of the lord, it will be reported to the lord for decision."

Ouyang Kang got up very enthusiastically and sent Chen Tonggu out of the study. After Chen Tonggu left, Ouyang Kang closed the door and sat back in his original position thinking about it. After a while, he whispered to himself, his voice He was so weak that he could only hear: "Zi Shang, I hope my sincerity is enough for us to become in-laws."

Chen Xiaofan was sitting with Ziwan at the 'Juxianju' dining table at this time, and sitting at the same table were the two people Ziwan often mentioned, Xiaoqing and Li Dazhuang.

Chen Xiaofan's right eyelid suddenly twitched a few times, feeling as if something bad was about to happen, the smile on his face froze, although the change was very subtle, but he couldn't hide it from Li Dazhuang who was sitting directly opposite.

"Xiaofan, what's wrong?"

"It's okay, it's just that I suddenly feel that Da Zhuang, you seem to be getting bigger and stronger again."

"Of course. Now I have enough to eat every day. Of course I'm growing fast. Naturally, I'm becoming more and more masculine."

Chen Xiaofan covered his nose with his hands and said: "Manly is quite good, no wonder I feel that the dishes are much worse today."

Li Dazhuang pursed his lips and said: "My man, I am popular with my body. This is a real man. I don't know how Miss Ziwan fell in love with you."

Chen Xiaofan laughed and said, "You don't understand the reason behind this, do you?"

"Is there any truth to this?"

Xiao Qing and Zi Wan, who had been listening to the two talking nonsense, also asked with great interest: "Xiao Fan, what's the point?"

"That's a very simple truth. As the saying goes, people are divided into groups by like clusters. Ziwan and I are both very beautiful, so we naturally came together." Chen Xiaofan looked at Li Dazhuang with a smile and said.

"Hey, hey, have you seen enough, you little fairy? Zi Wan is pretty, but you are neither male nor female, so you still have to put gold on your face, and you have to put Miss Zi Wan in the same category as you People, this will belittle a celestial figure like Miss Ziwan, which is very bad." Li Dazhuang laughed and scolded.

"Typical envy, jealousy and hatred." Chen Xiaofan replied.

"Do I need to be envious? I think it's better for a man to be big and strong. What's the use of being soft." Li Dazhuang retorted.

"Big and strong doesn't seem to have anything to do with being soft, right? There are a lot of fancy things that don't work, and practice is the standard of testing." Chen Xiaofan said back.

"You want to practice practice with me?"

"Do you think you are better than Ziwan?" Chen Xiaofan's words made Li Dazhuang speechless.

Zi Wan and Xiao Qing smiled slightly, Xiao Qing said: "Miss Zi Wan, don't be surprised, Da Zhuang and Xiao Fan like to talk nonsense."

"Miss Xiaoqing, I think it's good for them to chat like this, they are not people with deep feelings, how can they chat like this!" Zi Wan said with a feeling.

Xiaoqing looked at Chen Xiaofan and Li Dazhuang, with an undisguised joy on her face, this was the kind of joy an older sister would have when she looked at her younger brother, she said with a feeling: "Yeah, since the two of them got mixed up, in a blink of an eye they are all together. It's a tall horse."

Chen Xiaofan continued Xiaoqing's words and said: "Time flies really fast. At that time, how could we have thought that we would be sitting in the 'Juxianju' to eat?"

"Xiaofan, seeing you like this today, Miss Xiaoqing is very happy for you, work hard in the future, and don't let down a good girl like Ziwan."

Li Dazhuang raised his glass and said, "Cheers to our prosperous future."

The four of them raised their wine glasses at the same time, clinked them together, with smiles on their faces, as if they all saw a bright future and a bright and sunny tomorrow.

Chen Xiaofan felt very happy when he drank a glass of wine, but this kind of happiness came too suddenly, in less than two months, there was such a big change, which made Chen Xiaofan feel happy at the same time, but at the same time he was vigilant. Just know that something that comes too easily will be lost at the same speed as it was acquired.
