"What, something like this happened?" After listening to Ma Lianshan's report, Yang Kang slammed the table and stood up suddenly.
Provoking the county government, provoking the imperial court, does this give yourself a reason to go on a killing spree?
"Assemble all the people in the county government and let's go to the construction site in Magou Town." Yang Kang shouted towards the door, "I still don't believe it. In the bright world, a man in the world wants to change the land of Lantian County."
"Father-in-law." Ma Lianshan also stood up in a hurry, "This man broke boulders with just a snap of his fingers. His skill is extraordinary. These county government officials rushed over, but it may not help the matter?"
"You mean, I just have to endure this and hand over the construction site to him?" Yang Kang snorted, very dissatisfied with Malianshan's "cowardice".
"That's not what my son-in-law means. We are determined not to give up the construction site to them." Malianshan hurriedly concluded, "This man is very skilled. I am afraid that my father-in-law will suffer a loss even if he goes. Why don't we report this matter to the Xi'an Prefecture and inform the people stationed nearby?
Weishuo asks for help to deal with this person."
"I still don't believe that a person from the Jianghu Really dares to fight against people from the county government wearing government uniforms. If they really don't know what is good and what is wrong, the power of the court will completely break him to pieces because of his ignorance.
Come on, take me to see you first." As he spoke, Yang Kang flicked his sleeves and walked towards the gate.
Ma Lianshan wanted to dissuade him again, but looking at Yang Kang's angry look, he shook his head, smiled bitterly, and followed him.
At the Magou Town construction site, Duan Tianming ignored the dozens of workers not far away who were staring at him eagerly, found a shade tree, and sat down.
The two lieutenants each stood aside and looked around cautiously, vaguely portraying Duan Tianming as a gangster.
Staring at each other for a long time, they felt helpless and hungry. The tempting smell of corn paste made many workers couldn't help but gradually shift their eyes towards the direction of the kitchen.
Knowing that this stalemate would lead to nothing, the housekeeper Wu Tian shouted: "Eat, continue to watch them after eating."
Upon hearing this, the workers scattered like a defeated team and rushed towards the kitchen.
"Commander Duan, what do you think the Lantian magistrate will do if he hears this news? Will he report it directly and bring the imperial army to confront us?" a school captain whispered.
Lying on the ground, he picked two leaves and covered his eyes. Duan Tianming said lazily: "Unless he admits that he is incompetent, he will report it directly without testing it."
"What do you mean, he will come over in person later?"
"Yes, they should have come with the county government officials to put pressure on us in the name of the government."
"If this is really the case, what should we do? Beat them up?" A captain was so excited that he immediately wanted to take action.
"We must beat him up. However, we still have to reveal a little secret to them to make them fearful. Otherwise, how could the masters of Jinyiwei come over?" Duan Tianming's voice became weaker and weaker.
Under the shade of the tree, he actually lay comfortably, snoring slightly.
"Commander Duan, don't sleep, they are coming." Following the captain's call, two carriages sped towards the pipeline not far away, raising waves of dust.
Behind the carriage, all county government officials were holding water and fire sticks, trotting behind the carriage.
From time to time, he would wave his other free hand to prevent the dust from behind the carriage from entering his mouth, with an expression of disgust and helplessness.
"Let them wait for a while. I'm very sleepy now. Don't disturb me." After saying this, Duan Tianming's snoring started again.
The carriage stopped ten feet away from Duan Tianming, and Ma Lianshan jumped out of the carriage behind.
It wasn't until the gust of wind completely blew away the raised dust that the county magistrate Yang Kang stretched out his ankle from the first carriage.
Malianshan hurriedly stepped forward and opened the carriage door curtain: "Father-in-law, please slow down."
After getting off the carriage, Yang Kang flicked his sleeves, put his hands behind his back, raised his head high, and said in an official tone: "Where is the person who is causing trouble here? The county wants to see if he is a three-headed and six-armed man, and he is actually at the government's construction site.
Go wild and run wild."
The peripheral vision of his eyes had already been aimed at Duan Tianming, who was sleeping soundly under the shade of the tree.
Wu Tian led a dozen workers who had finished breakfast and ran over with their tails wagging: "Sir, the troublemaker is sleeping under the shade of the tree."
"Call him over. I want to question him." Yang Kang turned his head, deliberately not looking at the shade of the tree where he lay at dawn.
"Yes." Wu Tian responded, bowed and took two steps back, straightened his back suddenly, and walked toward Duan Tianming fiercely.
"Hey..." Wu Tian was about to call Duan Tianming to get up, but a captain moved and the sword on his waist had been pulled out of its sheath.
The shining blade was placed on Wu Tian's neck in an instant: "The boss is sleeping and making a lot of noise. Don't you want to live?"
As Ma Lianshan's butler, Wu Tian was used to doing whatever he wanted. But he had never experienced this feeling of a knife on his neck.
Suddenly his whole body became stiff and he stood there not knowing what to do.
Ma Lianshan here did not expect that the other party was not only very skilled, but also so domineering. He actually dared to draw a knife and put it on someone else's neck in front of the magistrate.
"Bold." Malianshan shouted loudly, "The magistrate is here, and you dare to draw your sword against me. Do you really not know how to write the word "death"?"
This Wu Tian is his housekeeper, and he is also the person in charge of this construction site when he is away. If someone threatens him with a knife to his neck, and if word spreads about it later, wouldn't it mean that others think he is easy to mess with, and they all want to come to the construction site?
Some blackmail.
With the county government as his backing, Ma Lianshan didn't care about his opponent's skills, so he took the lead and helped Wu Tian out of trouble first.
As long as the other party puts down the blade in his hand, the limelight of this matter will turn to him.
However, things did not develop in the direction Ma Lianshan imagined. Not only did the captain not put down the saber in his hand, but he slapped Wu Tian on the face with a "snap" sound like a slap with the blade, instantly killing Wu Tian.
The sky fell to the ground.
The sharp blade in his hand shook, and he pointed it directly at Ma Lianshan: "If you continue to make noise, I will take care of you too."
Malianshan's heart felt cold, and he was about to rush over, but he stopped where he was.
This is just a subordinate, so domineering, it seems that he doesn't take the people of the county government seriously at all.
Where did the man in red sleeping on the ground come from?
Listening to Duan Tianming's slight snoring, and then looking at the men guarding him vigilantly, Ma Lianshan had an ominous premonition in his heart: My father-in-law may be in embarrassment today.
Slowly turning around, Yang Kang tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart, took a few steps forward, and faced the captain who was using the knife: "I am the magistrate of Lantian County, what, you want to attack me too?"
"It doesn't matter who the boss is when he's disturbed by his sleep," the captain said coldly, expressionless.
"Are you really lawless? In your eyes, I, the magistrate of the county, turn a blind eye?" Yang Kang couldn't hold on to his face anymore. He waved his hand and asked the government officials behind him to take action without caring about the situation.
"If you are like the common people and respect the government, how can you still be in the world? If you disturb the boss's sleep, if these government servants behind you dare to rush over, I will kill them all." The school captain shook the saber in his hand, and the blade showed silk threads.
No hint of coldness, no fear at all.
Yang Kang was startled and felt a bit hard to get off the donkey.
These Jianghu people have no fixed abode. If they are really cornered, they will resort to violence, kill a large number of people, and then escape. Where can I catch them?
The project hasn't even started yet, but a lot of lives have been lost. Apart from being incompetent, how can I, the county magistrate, be viewed by the superiors?
However, even if you let yourself shrink like this, the title of county magistrate is not allowed.
When I was in a dilemma, a voice came from the shade of the tree: "Go to sleep, it's so noisy."
Duan Tianming sat up, rubbed his eyes with his hands, and looked at everything in front of him sleepily.
"Boss, these people from the county government wanted to rush over and disturb your sleep, so I stopped them." The captain put away his sword, returned to Duan Tianming, and replied respectfully.
"A person from the county government?" Duan Tianming looked around in front of him, slowly stood up, and his eyes fell on Yang Kang, "Are you the county magistrate?"
"Yeah." Yang Kang put his hands behind his back and responded coldly.
Duan Tianming hurriedly stepped forward, raised his fists, and saluted Yang Kang: "The common people have seen the magistrate."
