After saying that, the man shook his head with regret, but Su Chen's face was already full of black lines!
I was actually painted as a sweet potato and worshiped?!
"Pfft! Hahahaha!"
At this time, Princess Changle and Xiao Sizi could not hold back any longer and burst out laughing.
Su Chen couldn't stand it anymore and ran away, almost making Lao Zhao and the others think that someone was plotting against Su Chen.
And when they saw the Sweet Potato Immortality Monument, they couldn't help laughing.
After escaping from the courtyard, Su Chen quickly found a resting inn and booked a room.
After having a hasty dinner and washing up, Su Chen was ready to go to bed.
"Master, something serious has happened!"
Just when Su Chen was about to take off his clothes, Lao Zhao suddenly pushed open the door and entered in a hurry.
"What happened?"
Su Chen frowned slightly.
Old Zhao said out of breath: "Master, the road we are planning to build in Qingchuan may have to change the route."
"Why?"
Hearing this, Su Chen was a little surprised and asked, "Didn't we communicate with the local government a long time ago?"
"There is no problem with the government. It's just that Lao Zhuang and others sent news that there is a Lu family in Qingchuan County who does not agree with us building the road according to the original route."
"Qingchuan Lu family?"
Su Chen raised his eyebrows and asked, "What kind of aristocratic family is this?"
Old Zhao continued: "Young Master, it is said that they are a branch of the Fanyang Lu family."
"Fanyang Lu family?"
Hearing these four words, Su Chen was quite surprised and asked, "Are you talking about the Fan Yang Lu family in the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes?"
"Yes, Master."
"Why don't they let the road be built?" Su Chen continued to ask.
"They said that our original route occupied his family's ancestral land and asked us to find another route," said Lao Zhao.
"What? Didn't I remember that we built roads that bypassed all states and counties?"
"How could they occupy their ancestral land?"
Su Chen suddenly felt that things were not simple.
"Master, this is simply their deliberate attempt to make things difficult. We have not occupied their ancestral land at all."
"Moreover, if it is not built according to the original route, then we will only be able to build the road here!"
As he spoke, Lao Zhao took out a map and pointed to the barren mountain icon on it.
Su Chen narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Do they want us to open mountains and build roads?!"
"Is there any news from Lao Zhuang?"
Lao Zhao shook his head and said, "We don't have this for the time being."
"Okay, then I understand."
Su Chen nodded gloomily and said no more.
Soon, many people gathered in Su Chen's room.
Princess Changle and Xiao Sizi were sitting next to him, and Princess Changle looked at him with some worry.
Ever since she met Su Chen, she had never seen him look so solemn.
Obviously, something big happened this time, and the atmosphere in the room became extremely solemn.
Now, Li Junxian is very upset.
In the past few days, I was only busy protecting Su Chen's safety, and I actually forgot about these difficult families.
It's okay now. They actually made Su Chen angry. With his temperament, it would be strange if he didn't cause something big.
Su Chen asked: "Lao Zhuang, what happened today?"
"Master, this is what happened."
Lao Zhuang said: "Today, our original project in Qingchuan County is going smoothly, and everything is going on schedule."
"But just when we were about to start construction, people from the Lu family suddenly came to the door and said they wanted to requisition our cement."
"However, we had already planned the use of the cement, so how could we use it for them, so we started to argue."
Su Chen nodded and continued to ask: "Then have you told them that after we finish building the road, the cement-making workshop will stay, and then they can make it themselves if they want?"
"I said that."
Lao Zhuang smiled bitterly and said, "But the Lu family is extremely domineering, so we must use it now."
"Okay, then I understand. You can go back and rest first."
After Lao Zhuang left, Li Junxian was the first to speak: "Have you brought your Majesty's Emperor's Order with you?"
"Why don't you give me the emperor's order, and I'll go to the county magistrate here to discuss the matter."
Su Chen waved his hand and said with a smile: "No need."
"Then how do you want to solve this matter?" Li Junxian asked.
"Didn't they say that we were occupying their ancestral land by building roads?"
"Then let's forcefully occupy their ancestral land!"
Su Chen said casually, but there was a hint of ferocity in his words that made people shudder.
Although Su Chen soon heard that during this period of the Tang Dynasty, the aristocratic families were extremely arrogant.
But I didn't expect that he could be so arrogant!
In this case, let him see who is more arrogant!
Seeing this, Li Junxian raised his forehead and said helplessly: "Don't mess around, this is not Chang'an!"
"The Qingchuan Lu family is not a small family. It is an important branch of the Fanyang Lu family. Not only does it have some weight in the court, it is also not a simple family in Qingchuan."
Li Junxian, this is also a kind reminder.
There is nothing false in his words. Although the Qingchuan Lu family is only a branch of Fan Yang.
But based on their energy, they can be regarded as the first-class family in the Tang Dynasty.
If Su Chen attacked them rashly, I'm afraid it would cause quite a disturbance.
"Don't worry, I know what's going on."
Su Chen turned to Old Zhao and said, "Old Zhao, go and help me investigate tomorrow to see how powerful the Qingchuan Lu family is in the local area!"
Lao Zhao nodded in agreement.
Little Sizi said softly: "Brother Su, Sizi asked my father to send people to arrest all those who bully Brother Su, please don't be angry, okay?"
"Ha ha."
Su Chen smiled and pinched her chubby cheeks, and said, "Sizi, what you said is wrong. It's my brother who wants to bully them!"
…
Now that something bad happened, Su Chen was forced to change his itinerary and stay in Qingchuan County for a few more days.
Three days later.
Lao Zhao, who went to inquire about the news, finally returned in a somewhat embarrassed state.
"Young Master, I have figured out everything now. This Lu family in Qingchuan can really be said to cover the sky with one hand!"
Su Chen took a cup of tea from Princess Changle's hand and asked while drinking: "So?"
"Take last year's heavy snowfall as an example. Thousands of people starved to death in Qingchuan County, all because of the Lu family!"
Old Zhao said: "A few years ago, they had secretly emptied the Qingchuan County Magistrate's official rations!"
"I sneaked into the yamen and watched this secretly. The people still don't know anything about it."
"Is there anything else?"
Hearing this, Su Chen raised his eyebrows. This Qingchuan Lu family's behavior has made him really angry!
