Spoiled Concubine: The Warlord is not to be messed with - Chapter 352

The people heard Cheng Yi’s words. Although they were still fighting for Cheng Yi, they no longer sneered at the rich businessmen as they did just now. They began to say good words one by one, “in fact, we have no malice. How much you donate is your business. We have no money, but we can still contribute.”

“I don’t want my salary. We can get better only after the river embankment is repaired.”

“Big brother, I support you and don’t want my salary.”

“Now it’s difficult here. All big bosses have helped. We should be more considerate to each other.”

With the joint efforts of several people, many people called on them to provide labor for the imperial court free of charge.

Although the people’s faces showed unhappy expressions one after another, some people thought they would not.

“Fellow citizens, your kindness has been appreciated by the magistrate and me. It’s not easy for you. This is your hard money. You can’t stop it.”

Cheng Yi was moved and his eyes were red. He didn’t expect that these people were so simple and kind that they could do things for free, but he also knew that people’s kindness could not be sacrificed in vain. After all, he didn’t reach that time now.

“Cheng Dashan is right. We all appreciate your kindness, but your silver will not be less. It’s not easy for you.”

The magistrate said that tears filled his eyes, which made many people present shed tears.

The rich businessmen stopped talking and stood on the stage with their heads down, like children doing wrong.

“I announce that the project will start today.”

As soon as the magistrate’s words were over, many people crowded their heads to become workers, “choose me.”

“I’m strong. You choose me.”

“I eat less, add me one.”

Cheng Yi and the prefect are gratified to see everyone scrambling to work.

When it was late, the crowd dispersed, leaving only the magistrate and Cheng Yi busy. Cheng Yi specially looked around, “Xiao Xu, you stand at the door and watch. I’ll go in and say something with the magistrate.”

Xiao Xu is an alias of Yun Xueyao. At first, she hasn’t responded, “yes, sir.”

Yun Xueyao only got the gate. She wondered what Cheng Yi wanted to say to the magistrate. Why did she avoid everyone?

She asked the Yamen servants and said, “guys, I just followed Master Cheng today. I’m not familiar with some places. I see the relationship between the magistrate and Master Cheng is very good.”

When the Yamen servant heard Yun Xueyao inquire about this, he was very nervous and said, “you hairy boy, don’t inquire about something useless. You can’t stay cool.”

With a smile, Yun Xueyao took out the broken silver from his pocket and handed it to the Yamen. “Aren’t you curious, little man? Please do me a favor. Maybe we can become good brothers in the future.”

“Ha ha, you’re a good boy. Let me tell you, don’t tell others.” the Yamen accepted the broken silver, glanced around, saw that there was no one, and quickly whispered to Yun Xueyao, “in fact, it’s no big deal. The magistrate and Cheng Dashan have known each other for a long time. They usually drink some wine together when they’re free. We’re not surprised.”

“Oh, so it is. I just don’t know if I have time to invite some brothers to drink in the future.”

Yun Xueyao brought the topic to himself. The Yamen servants thought, “as soon as these two people talk, it’s midnight. It’s better for us to drink now, as long as they come before they get drunk.”

One yamen said, and the other said uneasily, “although they say so, they are afraid that they will close the stall early today. What if we get drunk and delay major events?”

“What’s the matter? Won’t we not get drunk? Really, take it easy. No one will come anyway.”

Yun Xueyao also added fuel and vinegar, “that is, we can drink less and eat more vegetables. We don’t have to drink.”

“It’s still the new brother. Let’s go. Let’s go.”

“Wait a minute, I’ll go with you, too. Who’s afraid of who.”

As soon as they left, Yun Xueyao greeted the guard Liu hiding at the corner of the street, “let’s go. This meal is on me.”

Hearing this, Liu bodyguard immediately came out of the end of the street, went to the roof with lightness skills, carefully opened the tiles, and saw Cheng Yi and the magistrate drinking and chatting.

“Magistrate, it’s good that we have a tacit understanding of cooperation today. Otherwise, those rich businessmen and people will certainly not have such a big response.”

Cheng Yi seems to have changed his face. His smile is sinister. His face is full of fat. Laughing can kill a fly.

“Hahaha, where, Master Cheng, all this is in your name, especially the people, but I don’t understand one thing.”

The magistrate stroked his goatee and said puzzled.

“Oh, what’s the matter?”

Cheng Yi put down his glass and was in a good mood.

“Since those people don’t want wages, why do you give them?”

It turned out that the magistrate was talking about this. In fact, the money allocated by the imperial court to repair the river has been included in the magistrate’s account, but not much has been deducted by officials at all levels. However, it is more than enough to pay the people, especially with the silver donated by the rich, it is real silver.

“Well, magistrate, the common people may just have a temporary sense of justice. When they wake up, they will certainly want money. At that time, it will be much more troublesome. Moreover, we mainly want money for rich businessmen this time, but the common people are second. I just want to play a good role in the eyes of the Hundred Surnames. In this way, they will be more friendly in the future Worship me. ”

Cheng Yi chuckled and said that he pays attention to everything he does. For example, now, the people are not his lambs at all. A good reputation is enough for Cheng Yi to make use of. In addition, the people pass it on from mouth to mouth.

“Hahaha, Master Cheng was so thoughtful. I really learned from you.”

The magistrate raises a toast to Cheng Yi. The two cooperate tacitly. Unless their kind people know that they have been good friends for many years, others always think they are working relationships, so they don’t care at all.

Liu bodyguard on the roof was surprised. He didn’t expect that Cheng Yi’s honest face turned out to be a sinister and cunning face. The previous donations to do good things were an illusion created by Cheng Yi. What exactly does Cheng Yi want to do?

“We learn from each other and make progress together.”

“Then we’ll split the silver in half. As long as it’s enough for the river repair project.”

“Well, magistrate, we are still the same, 50-50.”

When Cheng Yi and the magistrate finished talking, they opened a small dark box in the door. Finally, they went in. Guard Liu only saw their figures and knew that they must have gone to share the stolen goods, but he didn’t dare to act rashly, so he found Yun Xueyao and was ready to tell her the situation.

When I found her according to the mark left by Yun Xueyao, I found that Yun Xueyao and several people were drinking, and the Yamen servants were dizzy lying on the table, shouting good drink and another drink.

Yun Xueyao didn’t drink at all. She forced the alcohol out with her internal power. She saw Liu bodyguard with sharp eyes, so she asked, “how’s the matter handled?”

“Back to the queen, Cheng Yi is not a good man at all. He is sharing the stolen money with the magistrate.”

Liu bodyguard told Yun Xueyao what he had just seen. Yun Xueyao had long guessed that the two people must be abnormal. No wonder Cheng Yi was so rich. It turned out that every time he donated money, he would carry his silver intact and sign the sheep.

The relief money given by the imperial court was enough. It seems that someone must have done something. Maybe it’s not just the magistrate and Cheng Yi.

“OK, I see. This Cheng Yi is definitely not as simple as we know.”

Yun Xueyao asked Liu bodyguard to go first, then went back to the restaurant and told several yamen servants, “brothers, get up, the magistrate is coming.”

On hearing the words “magistrate”, the Yamen servants couldn’t help muttering, “the little fat man is here again. It’s really annoying.”

“Ha ha, brother, you certainly don’t know one thing. We found it by accident.”

The Yamen servants were drunk and regarded Yun Xueyao as their own people. They spoke recklessly in front of Yun Xueyao, but they didn’t dare to let the surrounding guests know.

On the street, although the Yamen servants were drunk, they could still walk, so they said, “our magistrate is not from the imperial court at all.”

Yun Xueyao didn’t understand, “what is not a member of the imperial court?”

“Little brother, you don’t know. The magistrate didn’t come up through layers of selection at all, but a Jianghu alchemist.”

Yun Xueyao was shocked, but she still pretended to be curious and asked, “what’s the basis for you to say this?”

If he was not elected by the imperial court, how did he achieve this position today?

“Of course, the alchemist offered money to the people above, so he can get on this position. As long as he checks it, he will know.”

It turned out that the false magistrate had learned his skills by worshiping an old Taoist in his early years. Later, when Lao Dao was old, he traveled with a fake magistrate. At that time, he was 16 or 17 years old.

One day, they came to a small village and saw a middle-aged man herding cattle at the gate of the village. At that time, the profession of alchemist was similar to that of beggars in the street.

Because the alchemist pays attention to the word “fate”. So the purse is not rich.

The old Taoist priest often said, “you can cross the world’s Royal guests with broken clothes and coats.”

When the middle-aged man saw them, he thought they were beggars and showed disdain for them.

The fake magistrate smiled and said to the middle-aged man, “fellow townsman, give me some water to drink.”

The middle-aged man vomited and said, “the living man doesn’t have enough water to drink. Who cares about beggars!”

The false magistrate said solemnly, “you have to give this glass of water, or you will regret it.”

The middle-aged man was even more disdainful and laughed: “I regret it, I’m your grandson!” the fake magistrate was young and energetic, so he had to fight with the middle-aged man, and the white haired man d stopped and said, “it’s all right, we’ll live in this small village today.”

The false magistrate said, “master, the people in this village are not so good. Can we live?”

The old Taoist said, “I can live.”

Sure enough, there was a family in the village. The old couple believed in Sanqing all the year round and warmly entertained the teachers and disciples.

In the evening, the Taoist priest said to the false magistrate, “disciple, go to the house next door and steal his cattle tonight!”

The false magistrate was startled and said, “master, you often teach me not to steal.”

The old Taoist said with a smile, “go!” the false magistrate reluctantly touched the dark and went next door. He climbed over the wall and went in. While hesitating, he saw a child teasing the cow in the cow pen. The cow suddenly went crazy.

He knocked the child to the ground. Fortunately, the false magistrate shot in time and saved the child.

There was a lot of noise. When people went out next door, it was the middle-aged man they met during the day!

It turned out that the Taoist priest watched the middle-aged man’s children’s palace and found that he would hurt his son today. So there was such a farce. Coincidentally, the middle-aged man was a senior official in the imperial court. As for who the Yamen were, they didn’t know.

“Although this is a legend, we can believe it is true, so we listen to the false magistrate.”

“Yes, as long as he asks us to do it, we will do it.”

Yun Xueyao also followed them to fight Ma haha. “I didn’t expect our magistrate to be so powerful. He will not only solve the problems for the people, but also have magical powers.”

“That’s why we don’t dare to contradict him. It’s also for this reason that Cheng Yi contacts with the magistrate. He is a good brother.”

The Yamen servants said, but when they came, they found that the magistrate didn’t come out, so they began to wait at the door again. Waiting, they fell asleep.

On the contrary, Yun Xueyao saw that several people were asleep, so she began to go to the place where the magistrate and Cheng Yi had a drink. Of course, she was with Liu bodyguard. Liu bodyguard was ordered by Feng Mo to protect Yun Xueyao.

The two entered the room one after another. Guard Liu carefully opened the dark box and found a long passage when they went down.
