The sound of thumping going up the stairs sounded, and Qin Yang and Ma Shan's hearts skipped a beat.
Could it be that the disaster relief minister is here?
The two people quickly stood up and walked to the door, but it was Mr. Zhou who opened the door. Both of them were stunned and looked at Mr. Zhou, but there was no one behind them.
Mashan subconsciously asked: "Master Zhou, where is the Minister of Disaster Relief?"
Mr. Zhou: "Where is the disaster relief minister? He has gone to the Wu family!"
"What? Went to Wu's house? What's going on?" Qin Yang was dumbfounded when he heard this.
I got up early in the morning and booked the entire restaurant, where good wine and food were waiting for me. You guys actually went to Wu's house. What the hell is this?
Mr. Zhou still had a look of disbelief on his face at this moment: "Don't talk about it, you two, let's think about how to face Zhao Long from the Wu family next."
These words made Qin Yang and Mashan even more confused.
"What do you care about Zhao Long?"
Mr. Zhou sat down and hummed: "What the hell does it matter? Do you know what happened at the city gate just now?"
"The disaster relief minister from the imperial capital! The imperial official of the third rank, the left minister of household affairs, actually knelt down and saluted that Zhao Long!"
"Idiot!"
Mashan was so frightened that he almost fell to the ground: "Real or false!"
Qin Yang also had an expression of shock and disbelief.
Mr. Zhou: "Is this a lie? I saw it with my own eyes. Grandma and we have all been killed by Zhao Long. This guy pretends to be a pig and eats the tiger. I'm afraid he is the leader of the disaster relief ministers from the imperial court!
"
"This, this, this..."
Qin Yang panicked. People like him had wanted to kill others before, even though they failed!
But who would have thought that this guy would suddenly change his identity and become an official of the imperial court. Wouldn't this cost him his life?
"It's over now, my life is over!" Ma Shan's face was ashen.
It was okay for them to drive up the price of food in Qingzhou City and sell it at high prices, but a critical period ago, they and Wang Feng wanted to kill someone.
Zhao Kang knew all these things very well, and he also killed the guest officials of three of their families. The Wang family was even demolished, and the head of the family, Wang Feng, is still in prison.
Lord Zhou was also afraid that he was the one who had the first conflict with Zhao Kang, otherwise he would not have rushed to Qin Yang and Mashan to discuss countermeasures.
Qin Yang forced himself to steady his thoughts and whispered: "You two, let me see that the situation is not at its most critical yet."
Ma Shan turned his head: "What did Brother Qin say?"
Master Zhou also looked over, and Qin Yang said: "Think about it, Zhao Long didn't do anything to us before, right? We just need to blame all the Wu family's affairs on Wang Feng."
"As for selling grain, we can sell it however we want. What does it have to do with other people? We are not forcing others to buy it. There is no reason for him to cause trouble for us."
Mr. Zhou narrowed his eyes when he heard this: "That's what I say, you'd better keep the price of food down these days, and now the disaster relief ministers are here."
"These officials have dark hearts. If they really want to cause you some trouble, they will have many ways to do it. Once they catch the pigtails, they won't stop until we are forced to live and die."
Master Zhou completely forgot that he was also an official, and he and Qin Yang Mashan made plans and discussed how to deal with Zhao Kang.
Qin Yang nodded: "Your Majesty, Mr. Zhou, I have to inform the people below about this matter as soon as possible. In addition, should we invite Zhao Long and prepare some money so that we can turn the conflict into friendship?"
"I think it's okay."
Mashan said: "Prepare more money, there are all officials who don't love money. If the government's relief and disaster food can come from us, that would be great!"
The three of them hit it off immediately and immediately sent someone to Wu's house to deliver the invitation.
At this moment, everyone was sitting around in the lobby of the Wu family.
Wu Xinyi sat in the main seat. This was the result of Qi Yunshan pushing Zhao Kang and Zhao Kang pushing her.
After everyone drank a glass of wine, Zhao Kang briefly talked about the current situation in Qingzhou City.
Qi Yunshan and several assistant officials listened carefully and took out their pens to take notes from time to time.
Zhao Kangdao: "Now the Wang family's property and food have been confiscated by the government. The property should not be touched and will be left to the Wang family's wife, children and children."
Qi Yunshan nodded: "I understand."
The Wang family's little property is not worth much, food is the main purpose.
"From now on, I will let Long Li follow you to help with disasters. This will be used as a way to familiarize myself with the operation of officialdom in advance. Anyway, he will also take the exam for merit in the future."
A simple sentence determined Wu Longli's career.
This second young master of the Wu family was a surprise. Zhao Kang said again: "But don't raise your tail to the sky. Letting you participate in it is not only a kind of experience for you, but also an assessment. Can you join Mr. Qi and theirs?"
I will not be involved in the evaluation of Dharma Eye, whether it is good or bad, everything depends on your own ability."
"Zhao... Mr. Zhao, don't worry, I will definitely work hard and never let you down!" Wu Longli excitedly raised a glass.
"Master, master, what about me?" Wu Qingluan raised his hands and looked expectantly.
Zhao Kang smiled: "You just need to practice hard and you will be successful."
"Okay." The little girl was obviously a little disappointed. She thought that Zhao Kang would also give her some important tasks.
Looking at Wu Xinyi who was in charge, Zhao Kang said with a smile: "Master, you are good at things like food. If there is nothing else, you can also participate in it. How about it?"
"Listen to you... listen to Mr. Zhao." Wu Xinyi pursed her lips and said softly.
"Qi Yunshan, then the entire Wu family will be handed over to you. You have all been rushing to become officials since you were born."
"Sometimes you may not necessarily understand things like the people's livelihood and matters better than the Wu family masters. You should understand this truth by drawing on each other's strengths to make up for your own shortcomings, right?"
Qi Yunshan and others hurriedly said: "We will keep this in mind!"
This scene made Wu Xinyi feel mixed in her heart. She looked at Zhao Kang blankly. At this moment, the housekeeper trotted in: "Master of the house."
Wu Xinyi came to her senses: "What's the matter?"
"Well, the head of the Qin family sent an invitation, saying that he was inviting Mr. Zhao, Mr. Qi and others."
"What are these guys going to do again?" Xiao Xuance asked unhappily.
Zhao Kang laughed: "The weasel has no good intentions in paying New Year greetings to the chicken. Manager, please reply to them and say that I will definitely be there and ask them to wait."
The butler nodded and left.
Xiao Xuance: "Old Zhao, take me with you?"
"Let them dry for now and go back tomorrow morning."
Zhao Kang smiled and raised his glass: "Come on, come on, we will be comrades on the same front from now on, let's have a drink together."
Everyone was in high spirits and picked up their wine glasses.
It's just a pity that Ma Shan, Qin Yang and others didn't know that Zhao Kang was deliberately keeping them indifferent. He waited all night and wanted to leave but didn't dare to leave.
After dinner.
Qi Yunshan and others rested early after a tiring journey, and Zhao Kang found Zheng Xuan.
This martial artist with the peak level of fifth-grade cultivation was a rare talent, so Zhao Kang had a little thought.
