Unlike when Lin Haoming went to Lishi County to take office, Lin Haoming went out of his way to be secretive. When he entered Dithief City, Lin Haoming did not hide anything.
Of course, this is related to the fact that Lin Haoming had to take the Tianpeng flying car. After all, the two cities are extremely far apart. If you take a carriage, you will not be able to reach them for two or three years.
The people who greeted Lin Haoming were none other than Xiao Yumeng and Wei Yeming. When Lin Haoming and his family got off the Tianpeng Speedster, they were already waiting here.
"Senior Brother Lin, you are finally here, and the journey has been smooth!" As a disciple of Taimiao Hall, Xiao Yumeng did not use official titles when he opened his mouth to highlight the closeness between them.
"On the way, I saw Disui City from the window of the speed car. There are wide fertile fields and there are no ferocious beasts. It is much better than Dishuang City. My father has been operating it for many years and it is indeed rich!" Lin Haoming said with a smile.
"Senior Brother Lin, your father-in-law will be very happy to hear what you said. I specially prepared a banquet at Tianjing Tower to welcome Senior Brother Lin and his sisters-in-law!" Wei Yeming also said with a smile.
"Excuse me!" Lin Haoming did not refuse the other party's kindness.
"Li'er, you go to the city first and find an inn to stay!" Shu Siyue ordered at this time.
"Sister-in-law, you don't have to go to such trouble. Yu Meng and I have prepared a house for you. You can live there before officially taking up your post!" Wei Yeming immediately followed.
"Well, you and your wife have really put in the trouble!" Lin Haoming said with a smile.
"We have been brothers for many years, and Senior Brother Lin is out of touch when he says this!" Wei Yeming said with a smile.
"Li'er, just take the others and go first." Lin Haoming ordered.
"Yes, Master!" Li'er agreed obediently after hearing this.
In fact, when Lin Haoming came here to take up his post, he did not bring many people with him. Apart from Shu Siyue's personal maid, who was also the housekeeper of the family, there were only a few strong servants.
"Master, Li'er and I will go together!" Yu'er said proactively, as if she didn't like this scene very much.
Lin Haoming was stunned for a moment after hearing this, but Shu Siyue then said: "Xiaomei, go with Yu'er!"
"Okay sister!" Xiaomei also agreed.
While Lin Haoming was talking, Wei Yeming and Xiao Yumeng were also observing all this, obviously intending to find out more accurately the situation in Lin Haoming's family, which was also quite important to them.
After Yu'er, Xiaomei and others left, the couple immediately invited Lin Haoming and others to board the carriage, which drove straight to the most prosperous Fangshi in Dithi City.
Compared with Dishang City, Dithief City is indeed much richer. Not only are there more pedestrians along the way, but everyone is more decently dressed. Even if it is afternoon, the city is still quite lively, with various shops lined up.
The scale is generally larger than that of Dishuang City, and even the number of restaurants is much greater than that of Dishuang City, which shows that this place is indeed richer.
Wei Yeming and Xiao Yumeng also introduced Lin Haoming to the situation of Dithief City along the way. Although Lin Haoming already knew something about it, as the landlords here, it was naturally more direct for them to introduce it in detail, especially some doubts raised by Lin Haoming.
People can basically answer it very clearly.
As the daughter of the former city lord, perhaps because Xiao Ming had just left, or perhaps Xiao Ming's residual power still existed, so when Wei Yeming and Xiao Yumeng walked in, the clerks and even the shopkeeper of Tianjing Tower immediately ran out to greet them, and they quickly
He took the group of people to the top floor of Tianjing Building.
Although Xiao Yumeng and Wei Yeming are just county magistrates now, they come from wealthy families after all, and all the dishes they order are exquisite. However, Lin Haoming knows that today's banquet is not just for eating.
Sure enough, after three rounds of drinking, just when Lin Haoming mentioned that he planned to officially take office tomorrow, Wei Yeming followed up and said: "Senior Brother Lin, Cui Changting has not arrived yet. Senior Brother has to go through the formalities and needs to go to Zuo Tong."
Knowing Xiang Xuehai, Lord Xiang was promoted by his father-in-law. Originally, when his father-in-law left, he recommended Lord Xiang to take over his position. Unfortunately, Tianman Mansion did not agree and instead sent Cui Changting. This Cui Changting
He has been an official in Tianman Mansion, and his qualifications are just like this. He just became the son-in-law of the Wu family, and he suddenly became the lord of the city."
"Although the Wu family in Tianman Mansion cannot be said to dominate the sky with one hand, it is indeed too powerful. Most importantly, they are not so convinced by the county governor. Gong Tongpan is also under control in Tianman Mansion. I think Gong Tongpan will let Lin
Senior brother, you may have some purpose in coming here!" Xiao Yumeng followed.
Lin Haoming vaguely felt from the two people's mouths that they were restless. Although they were right, from a certain perspective, what was the difference between the Xiao family's situation in Dithi City and the Wu family's situation in Tianman Mansion?
, but now the position has changed.
Of course, it was impossible for Lin Haoming to expose this, and now that Xiao Ming had left, his whole behavior was different, so they dared to say this.
"Sister Xiao, I don't know what the situation is like in the Thief City now. Xiang Xuehai is the old man who was the lord of Xiao City. What about Comrade You? And what about Master Tongpan and the situation in the sixth house?" Shu Siyue looked at it.
Lin Haoming was unable to answer directly, so he took the initiative to ask.
In fact, along the way, Wei Yeming and Xiao Yumeng also saw that although the two concubines around Lin Haoming were quite favored, in terms of real decision-making, it was Shu Siyue who did not look very outstanding in appearance. It can be seen that
This woman is amazing.
"Oh! This should be introduced. Now that Senior Brother Lin has taken office, among the six officials above the head office, only Cui Changting has not arrived. The general magistrate in the city is named Fang Ruhai. He is also from Tianman Mansion. When my father was here
At that time, he was an eye placed in the city by the Wu family. However, since he had only been here for a short time, it was expected that he had not become the city lord. By the way, in the Tongpan Mansion, the left supervisor Ju Yehao and the right supervisor Deng
Peng was promoted by my father, otherwise the city lord and judge would all be from the Wu family, and we people would be in the dark," Xiao Yumeng said.
"The city lord and judge are all members of the Wu family. Even if your father promoted you back then, you might not be able to change the family!" Shu Siyue reminded.
"Of course, but those two are smart people, they shouldn't be so fast!" Xiao Yu dreamed and replied.
"What about Comrade You?" Lin Haoming asked.
"Comrade You know that Song Ting is a member of the local Song family and a representative of the local forces. My father had a good relationship with him at the beginning, but he has been away from home for a long time. His situation will probably depend on what happens after Cui Changting arrives!"
Xiao Yumeng said without any concealment.
"What about the principal of the Sixth House?" Lin Haoming asked.
"Seventy-two cities are not like the counties below. They have county captains, and the city guards are all under the jurisdiction of the barracks. In addition, there are generals from all directions who lead the garrison. However, the generals from all directions generally do not interfere in political affairs, but this is the director of the barracks.
, but it’s Fang Ruhai’s person!” Xiao Yumeng said somewhat helplessly.
