"Why are you running?" Li Xiao glanced at Wang Xiaoer. Wang Xiaoer was about to escape but was held down by Shunzi.

"Master Jun, please spare the little one. The urban management is here. They will catch and beat anyone they see. If you run slowly, you will not only be beaten, but also taken away and fined. Look at my small stall. I can only do it in one day."

Earn a few big bucks. If I get caught by them once, my work this month will be in vain." Wang Xiaoer was caught by Shunzi and couldn't move. He was so anxious that he almost cried. He bowed his hands and begged Li Xiaogao to spare his life.

he.

Li Xiao shook his head helplessly. After all, the urban management thing showed up. He had long disliked these guys, so this time he would take care of them and make the people angry.

"Sit down and drink with me. When the city management comes, I guarantee they won't dare to beat you, and no one will dare to fine you." Li Xiao sat calmly, without any panic.

"Master...! You...!" Wang Xiaoer looked at the urban management officer running from a distance, and then at Li Xiao, who was still there. He didn't know if he was running away or listening to this Liao Army officer.

"My master tells you to sit down, just sit down. If the urban management officer raids your stall, then you are tired of living." Shunzi casually carried Wang Xiaoer over and pressed him in front of Li Xiao. Wang Xiaoer's face was pale, and he used the corners of his eyes from time to time.

Peeking at the urban management personnel getting closer and closer in the distance.

Li Xiao shook his head helplessly. It seemed that the city management was really powerful.

A group of more than 20 urban management officers dressed in black ran over. They opened up stalls along the way and beat up vendors when they saw them. The leader, a big man with a ferocious face, pointed at the small vendors who were beaten until they were wailing and yelling.

.

"Straight bitch! I said you are not allowed to set up stalls in this area, but you guys don't listen. I will escort all those who set up stalls tonight, and I will relax your muscles and bones." As he said this, he held the whip in his hand.

He whipped the Turpan mutton kebab vendor. As soon as the whip came down, the Turpan vendor immediately rolled on the ground like a mouse.

Beating, scolding, and pushing all the way. The team soon arrived in front of Li Xiao. Seeing that Wang Xiaoer dared to sit there and drink, the big man in the leader immediately became angry.

"Hey! You are so carefree. You set up a stall in my house and you dare to sit and drink. Get out of here!"

Wang Xiaoer was so frightened that his whole body trembled. He trembled and tried to stand up, but Shunzi held his shoulders down and couldn't stand up.

Seeing Shunzi wearing a Liao army uniform, the city manager frowned. Everyone in the world knew that the Zhu family's world now belonged to the Liao army. The Liao army was famous for its arrogance even in the capital. This did not dare to offend.

Got it!

He hugged Li Xiao and said, "My lord, I'm here to invite you. I'm performing official duties, so please don't interfere."

"You are quite polite, but I see that you don't seem to be polite to those small businessmen and hawkers. Didn't you say that you should relax their muscles and bones? You might as well relax here!" Li Xiao was eating a large skewer of squid.

The corners of the mouth are full of sauce. I have to say that Wang Xiaoshu's skills are really good. The squid is grilled at just the right temperature and the sauce is delicious.

I haven’t eaten squid for many years, and now I really can’t stop eating this taste. I drank a sip of wine and ate a bite of squid, and I looked so divine that I didn’t even notice the twenty or so urban management officials.

Seeing that Li Xiao was so calm and spoke with a gun and a stick, he was not embarrassed. The urban management officer frowned and clasped his fists at Li Xiao again: "Xiao Zhan, the lower official, has come to see your lord, and under the order of Lord Yin of the government, we have cleaned up both sides of the Chaobai River.

Vendors, please don’t obstruct me from carrying out my official duties.”

"I stopped you. What can you do?" Li Xiao didn't even look at Xiao Zhan. He took a sip of wine and said to Wang Xiaoer: "You're good with the squid, the jellyfish, and the edamame."

It’s a bit old to cook. Let me teach you how to cook edamame. You need to add some alkali when cooking edamame. You can see that the edamame is cooked to a yellow color. If you add some alkali, it will become green and tender.”

At this time, Wang Xiaoer had big beads of sweat flowing down his face like a stream, and he couldn't even listen to what he said about how to cook edamame. If he continued to suffer like this, Xiao Zhan would cook him.

"You are blocking the official's work and reminding you that this is against the law." Xiao Zhan straightened up and a group of urban management officials gathered behind him.

"National law! Okay, if I break any of them, Mr. Xiao will take me back. Let me see what kind of dragon and tiger's den your urban management bureau is."

"Fuck! You're shameless." A city management official waved his stick, rounded it, and then hit Li Xiao on him.

"Bang!" There was a clear gunshot, and the city manager screamed while covering his bleeding arm. Hundreds of Liao soldiers carrying revolvers rushed out from all around.

Xiao Zhan's heart sank. With many years of military experience, this shot was definitely fired with a rifle. But the Liao soldiers coming out now were all carrying revolvers, which meant that there were still countless rifles aimed at him in the darkness.

Who is this young man in front of me? Tongzhou is full of dragons and tigers, and he, a small urban management captain, cannot offend anyone. Moreover, although the Liao soldiers often have conflicts with local police officers, they

They never know how to use firearms and dare not use them. Who are these people? They dare to shoot and hurt people at will.

"Sir, you are blocking the official's work first, and hurting my subordinates later. Even if you look down on the low official position, you still have to save some face for Mr. Fu Zun." Surrounded by Liao soldiers carrying revolvers,

Xiao Zhan was very calm.

"You dare to bring Yin Jishan out to suppress me when you are in danger. You are a great person! But why don't you think about it, these common people can't survive anymore, so you just come out to set up small stalls to sell food and stuff. Why can't you?

Let them stand here, why can't they give people a way to survive?

You slapped and cursed, and you even raised the whip in your hand to greet me. These are all citizens of the Ming Dynasty, not foreigners from a foreign country." After Li Xiao finished speaking, he and Xiao Zhan looked at the salesman almost at the same time.

Laowei's mutton kebab.

"That counts!" Li Xiao pointed at Lao Wei who was wearing a melon-skin hat. Baturhun actually sent people to sneak attack the Ming Dynasty. As a result, Li Hu was lying in the hospital. This account must be settled clearly. In the future, including Turpan.

The southern and northern borders will eventually belong to the Ming Dynasty.

"My lord has the final say, so be it." Xiao Zhan took a step forward and said to Li Xiao: "But your lord, you have to be clear. I am following the official order. If your lord insists on going his own way, the villain will be offended.

."

"Bang!" As soon as Xiao Zhan finished speaking, the gun in Shunzi's hand went off. The bullet flew into the river close to Xiao Zhan's head, and Xiao Zhan quickly raised his hand.

"Kneel down!" Shunzi shouted, and the urban management officers knelt down on the ground one after another. Xiao Zhan stood up straight and refused to kneel. Two Liao soldiers came over and kicked his legs hard. Xiao Zhan immediately fell to his knees on the ground.

But even when he knelt on the ground, Xiao Zhan still stiffened his neck and looked dissatisfied.

"My lord, don't make a mistake!"

"Haha! If you intend to assassinate the commander-in-chief, I will kill you all." Shunzi put his gun directly on Xiao Zhan's forehead.

"Commander! Are you the commander? Xiao Zhan, captain of the Tongzhou Urban Management Brigade, please see the commander." Upon hearing that the young man in front of him was the commander, Xiao Zhan immediately knelt straight.

"You can still talk to me like this with a gun on your head. You are a big deal. Stand up!" Li Xiao did not expect that a small urban management captain could be a tough guy.

"Thank you, Marshal!" Xiao Zhan stood up, while the urban management officials behind him were still lying on the ground. The title of Marshal gave them huge psychological pressure, and the timid legs were shaking as if they were playing a pipa, and they almost knelt down.

Can't live.

"Your Excellency Fuyin asked you to clean up the vendors on both sides of the Chaobai River. This is not wrong. But you can't talk properly? Look at what you just did, overturning other people's stalls and breaking other people's things. And you still hit people!

It's not easy for these people. Who can live a decent life and still set up a small stall? As a human being, you must be considerate and treat the people better. Look at what you have done to the people.

You are officials who deal directly with the people, and your image is the image of the court in the hearts of the people. If you run errands like you do, what will the people say about our court? If the people's support of the court has been lost, who will bear this responsibility?

I'm talking to you like this because you are a big shot. If I had changed someone else, I would have been detained long ago and asked Yin Jishan to come and pick him up. Remember, enforce the law in a civilized manner." Xiao Zhan stood up straight, which Li Xiao admired in his heart.

Such a man. Now that he sees himself, not many dare to look at him like this.

"Since the commander-in-chief treats the villain like this, the villain will listen to the commander-in-chief and stop setting up stalls and beating and scolding these vendors in the future." Xiao Zhan cupped his fists and saluted Li Xiao.

"Haha! Let's go. Do your business well in the future, remember! Enforce the law in a civilized manner." Li Xiao waved his hand, indicating that Xiao Zhan could leave.

"No!" Xiao Zhan bowed, took a few steps back, and suddenly stood still again.

"Commander! The villain also has a few words to say."

"You have something to say? Say it!" Li Xiao was very surprised. This Xiao Zhan was indeed different from ordinary low-level officials. If it were another person, he would definitely run away at this moment.

"Commander Qi! If we follow the civilized law enforcement you mentioned, it will not work at all. I promise that within a month, this road will become a road market, and it will be extremely difficult for people and vehicles to pass through.

Also, these vendors would splash sewage indiscriminately, so that the banks of the Chaobai River smelled so foul that everyone had to cover their noses when passing by.

Marshal! Is this really what you want?"

"Presumptuous!" Shunzi roared, Xiao Zhan straightened his back and looked at Li Xiao unblinkingly.

"Oh! This is interesting, please explain it carefully." Li Xiao looked at Xiao Zhan up and down. This boy is indeed a character. These days, fewer and fewer people dare to talk to him like this.

I was scolded by Sun Chengzong today at Sun Chengzong's house. Now this little urban management captain actually wants to tease him a few words, but I want to see what he says. If you don't say Ziwu Maoyou today, you have to do a good job.

Be prepared for bad luck.

"Commander! Look, these vendors are now setting up their stalls on the road, blocking the sidewalk, so pedestrians have to use the driveway, which can easily lead to danger.

This is the second thing. You can see that there are only a few hawkers today. If we don't care, the hawkers will fill the whole street in a few days. If one person puts his stall down the curb first, the rest will follow. Use

In a few days, the entire street will turn into a street market.

They only cause harm and will never clean up. The water used for washing vegetables and washing seafood will also be poured on the road. Over time, this road will become extremely smelly. When everyone walks by, not only will

It was inconvenient and I had to cover my nose.

You just said civilized law enforcement, but they must also listen to civilized law enforcement. I have brought people here many times. At first, I patiently persuaded them. For those who were more timid, they left when we persuaded them. When we left, they started again.

Come back and set up a stall.

The bolder ones said they would leave right away, but they didn’t move at all. Do you think we can get through this without smashing, robbing, yelling and scolding?"

"This...!" Li Xiao was teased by Xiao Zhan and was speechless.

"You just said that these people were forced to set up stalls because they had no choice but to set up stalls. Commander! You have a kind heart, but you are wrong.

None of these people are forced to do anything, they are all first-rate unscrupulous people. Commander, please see, according to this there is a market one mile away. There, you only need to pay a management fee of five grand a day.

You can set up stalls there. The stalls are all planned, and there are dedicated people cleaning and clearing away garbage every day.

The management fees of the five eldest sons are actually very cheap. There is no oil and water in the market! The rest is the taxes from the court, which is not something that lower officials can say nonsense.

But they came here to set up stalls just to save five big bucks in management fees. You can see that the road is relatively clean now, but wait until midnight when they close the stalls and come back to see what kind of damage this place has been.

Just know it.

Especially in a food stall like this, there is no toilet area around. The diners urinate anywhere, and some defecate in the corners. The street sweepers are miserable every day.

What's even more shameless is that they deliberately lower the prices so that people will come to buy their goods. As a result, the traders in the market who abide by the law and pay taxes have a bleak business, and some have to move their stalls out.

I dare to ask the commander, if things continue like this. The vendors no longer operate in the market, but all go to the streets to operate, what will happen to our Tongzhou? Do you hope to see the Chaobai River, where garbage is everywhere and the stench is extremely bad? You have to be careful when walking.

,Didn’t you step on feces and urine?”

"Bold!" Shunzi stared. He had never seen such a low-level official dare to talk to Li Xiao like that.

"The lower official spoke softly. He just wanted to let the commander know that sometimes when managing a place, good intentions are not enough to do good things. Since the rules of the court are established here, the rules of the court must be implemented. If you are too soft, you have to do it.

Be tough." After the bastard said this, he held his neck, as if Li Xiao was going to chop off his head.

Li Xiao looked at the sky, what the hell is Feng Shui today? He was actually silenced by a low-level official! He must check the almanac when he gets home.
Chapter completed!
