Obviously, the construction of a wall at the dock is definitely not just about building a wall. This move has really touched the interests of many people in Guangzhou!
Among these people, some, like the head of the Chen family, turned into thousand-year-old tortoises and endured.
There are also those who are indignant and can't help but jump out and object loudly.
The Lingnan Gao family is such a typical example.
As the chief steward of the Gao family, Gao Changqing has silently formed a deep hatred with Fatty Hong and Xiao Han in the city since he was stuffed with socks and thrown into jail for no reason!
Just a few days ago, Gao Changqing, who once thought he was going to die of illness in prison and had no way to take revenge, was finally discovered by the old county magistrate, and he was released by someone.
However, Gao Changqing not only had no gratitude at all for the old county magistrate who kindly let him out, but instead transferred all his hatred towards Fatty Hong to him!
Therefore, after hearing that the old county magistrate was building a wall, old and new hatreds suddenly flooded into my heart!
Gao Changqing no longer cared about recuperating at home, and immediately got into a carriage and rushed to the east of the city in a hurry.
"Who asked you to build the wall! Ah! Who allowed it! This is our Gao family's land! Who allowed you to occupy it privately! Get out!"
At the east dock of the city, Gao Changqing's roars continued to be heard at the construction site. A large group of men building walls around looked at the bricks in their hands, and then at the furious Gao Changqing. For a moment, they didn't know whether to demolish the wall or build a wall.
OK.
"This is outrageous! You can take over the land of my Gao family as you please! Are there any laws of heaven? Is there any law?"
In other words, although Gao Changqing is a bit pretentious and pedantic in temperament, he is definitely not stupid!
After hurriedly arriving at the construction site, he first found a piece of his own land that was occupied, and then he started jumping around and cursing!
In this way, didn't he at least hold his own? Besides, Gao Changqing vaguely remembered that his land was very large and connected to the inside of the dock, so it was absolutely impossible to build a wall around it!
"Who, who is so irritable so early in the morning?"
While Gao Changqing was jumping up and down and spitting, Xiao Han, surrounded by Xiaodong and others, yawned and walked towards here along the road.
"Xiao Hou!" But seeing that Xiao Han, now the leader of Guangzhou City, was actually present in person, Gao Changqing's domineering aura immediately disappeared without a trace!
Although he has the title of the sixth-grade magistrate of Luozhou, this magistrate is an autonomous title. Compared with Xiao Han's county marquis title and the title of General of the Seventeenth Guards, the gap can be said to be worlds apart!
In addition, he had suffered a loss from Xiao Han before, so when he saw him now, he immediately felt like a mouse seeing a cat, and his legs began to tremble unconsciously!
"Don't be afraid! Even if he is the prime minister, he has to be reasonable, right? I won't let him use my own land! There's nothing I can do about it even if the King of Heaven comes!" His face changed several times, and in the end Gao Changqing could only give himself a hard time in his heart.
He cheered hard, then reluctantly raised his chest and looked at Xiao Han.
"Xiao Hou! I have nothing to do with you building the wall, but the land under your feet was bought by my ancestors of the Gao family, and passed down from generation to generation to this day! Moreover, our ancestors had rules and money.
People may give way, but the land will not give way! You came over and occupied our land without saying a word. I'm afraid this can't be justified, right?"
Gao Changqing stared at Xiao Han with his whole body trembling, trying to tell him the truth and reason! Tell him that it is wrong to occupy other people's things, so it is better not to build this wall.
However, Gao Changqing ignored one thing, that is, is Xiao Han really a reasonable person?
"Oh, you are from the Gao family! Who is here?" Facing the indignant Gao Changqing and the whispers of the onlookers, Xiao Han said oh, then deliberately scratched his head, as if thinking hard.
"I'm here, Gao Changqing!" When Gao Changqing saw this, his lungs almost exploded with anger!
What he just said was well-founded, his arguments were clear, and he was a top-notch writer, but the bastard in front of him didn't seem to hear a single word. How could this make him not annoyed?
"Yes! Gao Changqing!" Looking at Gao Changqing's extremely angry look, Xiao Han deliberately pretended to be suddenly enlightened, then pinched his chin and said suspiciously:
"By the way, I remember you should be in prison, right? Xiaodong, is the last assassination case of my master closed? Why didn't my master see the murderer arrested?"
"Gah..."
Poor Gao Changqing, after hearing Xiao Han's words, his blood was suddenly frozen into ice. At the same time, there was a strong sense of ominousness lingering in his heart!
"The case is not closed!" As Xiao Han's confidant, how could Xiaodong not know what he wanted to say? Hearing this, he quickly stepped forward and said, "The case is too complicated! There are too many people involved, so there has been no progress.
As for Gao Changqing..."
Speaking of this, Xiaodong paused deliberately, and then continued slowly with Gao Changqing's pale face: "Last time we found Mr. Gao, he was very similar to the mastermind confessed by the prisoner.
It’s just that there have been too many things going on recently, and there won’t be time for a detailed interrogation in the future. As for why he was released from prison, it’s unknown. Maybe he escaped from prison, right?”
"You, you..."
Sure enough, after listening to what Xiaodong said, Gao Changqing's face was completely drained of color!
The zombie-like pale face stared blankly at Xiao Han in front of him and the several eager guards around him.
It seems, probably, maybe, it was these people who stuffed the smelly socks into his mouth last time, and then grabbed him and paraded him through the streets! If this happened again, Gao Changqing would rather wipe his neck than suffer another humiliation.
!
"Wait!"
Finally, when Xiao Han's face was about to show a look of impatience, Gao Changqing was so blessed at this moment that he raised his hands and shouted: "I did not escape from prison, I was released by the county magistrate!"
Xiao Han suddenly said: "Oh! Since the case has not been concluded yet, does it count as being released on bail? Has the bail been paid?"
Gao Changqing didn't know what bail meant, but he could vaguely guess what these words meant from Xiao Han's tone. It should probably be something like ransom.
After thinking about this, Gao Changqing's brain was spinning rapidly. After confirming that Xiao Han would not explain anything to him, he had no choice but to accept his fate!
"No, but I am willing to pay for it with the land occupied by the wall. I wonder if Marquis Xiao is satisfied?"
"Oh? Hahaha, you're a teachable kid! Come here! Go to the county office quickly to get the land deed certificate. Remember, our wall is quite wide. It has to be three feet wide..."
