Chapter 405: Hit someone in the face, curse someone in the face!

The yamen servant nodded, but secretly pouted in his heart. He had just sneaked in from behind, and he had also heard several exclamations from inside the car. Only now did the prefect realize that he was afraid, but it was too late!

As for why Mr. Wang was angry and suddenly went to the shipyard, he guessed that it was probably related to the news he had just spread, and he couldn't help but feel a little complacent!

This is the first time in my life that I have tricked someone with such a high status. I felt a little bit excited for no reason in my heart. I was so happy that he didn’t want it!

The carriage set off on the road again, and this time there was no sound at all in the carriage. Neither the prefect nor the master showed any interest in talking, and the atmosphere became extremely heavy for a while.

Not long after, the carriage arrived at the shipyard. There were many people coming and going in the shipyard, but not all places could be entered casually. Even if reporting the name of the prefect didn't work, someone still had to report it. The only way was to let people know.

The prefect breathed a sigh of relief that Wang Xuan was indeed there.

There is a saying that the King of Hell is very fond of seeing little devils, but the magistrate feels that even if Wang Xuan, a high-ranking and powerful person, has any dissatisfaction in his heart, he will not show it so obviously!

Wang Xuan was visiting the newly built two-thousand-ton displacement ship. A guard came over and whispered: "Sir, the new prefect is here."

"Well, let him come in."

Not too close, Xu Yangqiu finally walked in with his master. Here are the various workshops inside the shipyard. Walking inside, you can see a large number of workers like ants climbing up and down to work.

, a rough estimate, there are about one or two thousand people working here, but there are still many places that he can't see. He doesn't even dare to think about how many workers there are in this shipyard in total.

Following the escort who led the way, he arrived at the dry dock. At a glance, he saw a huge ship in the distance. It was more than a hundred meters long and dozens of meters wide, standing there like a big mountain.

This was the reason why he could only see the upper part. The further he walked, the more he needed to look up. The ship was simply too big. Standing under the ship, he felt like a little ant.

"Master Prefect, Master Prefect!" The guard shouted twice in succession before the two people who were in a state of shock came back to their senses.

As a native of Suzhou, the Xu family is also involved in maritime trade. On the dock, he also saw the Xu family's big ship. According to the captain, it was a big ship with thousands of materials. It was the largest ship in the entire Ming Dynasty.

.

However, compared with the boat in front of me, the difference between an A cup and a D cup is almost the same, which is beyond the scope of 'control'.

Damn it, didn't you tell me that the Xu family's ship was already the largest in the Ming Dynasty? So what does this mean now!

The biggest since ancient times!

"Master Prefect, Mr. Wuzhou is here!" the guard warned.

"Ah, oh." Xu Yangqiu and his master came back to their senses and quickly turned around and saw a group of people walking towards this side. The leader of the crowd was dressed in white and had a calm demeanor, with a sense of having been in a high position for a long time.

The two of them immediately guessed that this was Wang Xuan, a young man who controlled the lives and deaths of thousands of people. No need to ask.

The two quickly gathered themselves together and said respectfully: "I have met Mr. Wuzhou."

"Don't be like this, you must be Xu Yangqiu from the Xu family in Jiangnan, the new magistrate of Fuzhou." Wang Xuan clicked his tongue, with a look of disdain on his face, "I don't dare to accept your courtesy, you are all the rich people from Jiangnan.

People from lower-class counties like us don’t dare to compare with you.”

"My small shipbuilding workshop will definitely not be able to catch the eye of Mr. Xu. This ship is too small and will definitely not be comparable to the big ships of your Xu family. Whenever you let your Xu family's ship come to Fujian, it will not be a problem."

Let me, a person from a lower-tier county, open my eyes!"

Xu Yangqiu was confused on the spot. Sir, shouldn't you be more reserved when speaking?

Xu Yangqiu didn't expect that Wang Xuan came up and retorted very rudely. There were people around him. These words made him feel ashamed. What a prosperous Jiangnan, a small county, and a big ship.

The words sounded to his ears no less than the most vicious curses.

In other words, it made him feel more embarrassed than scolding his mother. He had never suffered from this kind of anger since he was a child. His blood surged, his face started to turn red, and he felt like his head was starting to smoke, his ears were buzzing, and his head was spinning.

Dizzy, double vision appears in front of my eyes.

He only felt that the twenty or thirty people around him were looking at him with a joking look, and they all had no good intentions. They were all laughing at him, laughing at him for being a frog in the well, and laughing at him for being arrogant.

Nowadays, he rarely has a gap in the ground, and he can just crawl into it. After being teased in such a weird way, he is afraid that he is going to die!

He had the intention to retaliate violently and scold Wang Xuan, but when he thought of the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses that the master mentioned, Xu Yangqiu was like a deflated rubber ball, and all his anger disappeared. He really didn't dare!

what to do!?

His body was swaying and he was ready to 'faint'. It's good to faint. Once he faints, he won't have to think about anything!

His body shook again, but he was suddenly supported by someone. He moved his head slightly and looked out of the corner of his eye. Damn it, it turned out to be the master. Damn it, you are sick. Can we not be so diligent?

Just when I was thinking about how to make the fainting look more realistic, a devilish voice came from my ears, "He's about to faint. Someone, carry him out. Don't be a carriage. There's no ventilation. Just carry him like this."

Go back to the government office!"

Xu Yangqiu immediately became energetic. Are you going to carry me around the streets?

"I'm not dizzy, I'm not dizzy, I'm fine, I'm fine!" Xu Yangqiu quickly stood up straight and waved to express that he was great and that there was no problem at all.

"Since it's okay, Mr. Xu, please give me some pointers in this small workshop to see what the shortcomings of our small workshop are and how we can build a big ship like yours in Jiangnan." Wang Xuan had no intention of letting him go.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! For this kind of pretentious criminal who thinks he is superior, Lu Xun once taught us: when you hit someone, you have to slap someone in the face, and when you curse someone, you have to expose their shortcomings!

Confucius once said: It is better to chase the poor bandits with the remaining brave men, and not to be a famous academic overlord.

Wang Xuan decided that he would slap the new prefect in the face today. Not only would he hit him, but he would also hit him repeatedly to make him remember whose territory this is, who is in charge, and what concessions he should make.

Unpleasant things happen to people.

Xu Yangqiu really didn't expect Wang Xuan to be so unreasonable and slap him in the face again and again in public. You know, he had already shown signs of submission just now!

He was about to have a seizure, but when he looked up, he saw Wang Xuan's deep eyes, which were filled with murderous intent. This murderous intent was like a basin of cold water, pouring it on his head, making him wake up.

The last bit of blood was extinguished, and Xu Yangqiu sighed in his heart. He didn't care what the people around him thought of him, so he had to bow and salute again, "Mr. Wuzhou, please don't make fun of me. I am arrogant."

"Really?" Wang Xuan played a long tune. Seeing that the other party didn't dare to raise his head, he said, "That's what it's going to be like!"

"Okay, let's change places!"

As soon as Wang Xuan's words came out of his mouth, Xu Yangqiu breathed a sigh of relief, but he still felt a little uneasy and felt that something was wrong.

The group didn't say anything more, but walked out together. Yue Buqun, who was among the group, glanced at Xu Yangqiu pityingly. He knew Wang Xuan's temper and had a strong desire for revenge, so how could he let him go so easily.

After all, he was a magistrate. Oh, how miserable!

After leaving the shipyard, a group of people boarded Wang Xuan's large carriage. Wang Xuan closed his eyes and calmed down without speaking. The car became quiet. Xu Yangqiu couldn't help but be a little surprised when he looked at the decoration inside the car. It was too spacious and luxurious!

Just when he was sighing, the master next to him touched him lightly. Xu Yangqiu looked up and saw something wrong in the master's eyes. He kept looking out, but Wang Xuan was beside him and did not dare to say anything. He was anxious.

The master was so sweaty.

After a while, the car stopped again. Wang Xuan motioned for everyone to get out of the car. Xu Yangqiu walked down with an uneasy mood. As soon as he got off, he was stunned. He hadn't noticed it in the car just now, but now he could see it clearly.

There is a very large square at the foot, but the entire square is extremely flat and clean. It is paved with the same kind of "gray stone" as the road. The square alone is huge, and the crowds coming and going are so dense that there is no end.

Behind him is the pier, with five long plank roads extending dozens of feet into the sea. There are densely packed ships parked on both sides. Tall gantry cranes are unloading cargo from the ships, large wooden boxes or many sacks.

, looks extremely busy.

There are tall towers at the front of the plank road, which should be lighthouses. Each one is about ten feet high, and people can be vaguely seen on them!

This turned out to be a large pier that Xu Yangqiu had never seen before. Compared with it, the piers in Suzhou or Songjiang Prefecture were so small that they were simply incomparable.

After all, the imperial court clearly prohibits the sea, and those big families are not allowed to go too far. The docks are relatively scattered, and each family has its own private dock, so there is no one of this scale!

"Master Xu from the south of the Yangtze River, I am a new town on the scale of a county town, and a small wharf like this will definitely not be able to catch your eye!"

Hold!

Again!

Is it over?

What hatred and resentment!

Didn’t I just say that Xincheng is at best like an inferior county town?

As for holding a grudge to this extent!?

However, this person has flinched once and then a second time. Xu Yangqiu lowered his head again with a red face, "Sir, please don't laugh at me, I'm being reckless!"

"Haha, this is not a matter of recklessness, it is because you look down on me! Let's keep walking!" Wang Xuan sneered, but the words in his mouth made Xu Yangqiu feel cold all over.

"Let's change places! In my small county, there are still many places for Mr. Xu to visit!"

Wang Xuan got on the carriage, his cold gaze fell on Xu Yangqiu, and several guards behind him directly surrounded him, with a posture of forcing you to go if you don't want to go all the way. Xu Yangqiu sighed secretly, and could only bite the bullet and get on the carriage.

.

First it was the steel factory, then the textile factory, and then it went around in a circle and then to the barracks. After the three-way drum sounded, 5,600 people gathered.

Xu Yangqiu stared blankly at the neat queue of soldiers. There was silence in the school grounds with thousands of people. Wang Xuan did not give orders, and the more than 5,000 people stood motionless and upright.

They sat for an hour, and the soldiers stood for an hour. At first, Xu Yangqiu didn't feel anything, but as time went by, this silent pressure became heavier and heavier, and gradually it became so heavy that he couldn't breathe.
