Hope for luck

Chapter 59
In the Dantang county government office, Wei Yan'an is leading people directly to the county government warehouse to check the quantity and quality of the autumn grain.

Seeing these poor grains and old silver taels, Wei Yan'an sneered inwardly.

Xindao, if you don't punish you trash today, my surname will not be Wei!
"Hello, Master Wei, why did Master Wei come so fast, the officials have not had time to greet him, Lord Wei came here in a hurry, why not go to the restaurant to have a meeting first? It can be regarded as the next official to clean up the dust for the Lord!"

At this moment, Zhou Zhengxin, who came in a hurry, came to Wei Yan'an and said flatteringly.

Who is Wei Yan'an?He knew better than anyone else that as early as in the official document sent by the governor's yamen, Zhou Zhengxin had seen that Dantang County was Wei Yan'an who came to inspect and hand over the autumn grain, so that Dantang County could get ready!

What Zhou Zhengxin didn't expect was that Wei Yan'an seemed to have a feud with Gao Pan. Zhou Zhengxin, who didn't want to come to the county government, changed his mind.

Now is a good time to deal with Gao Pan!
Hearing this, Wei Yan'an turned around, saw Zhou Zhengxin, raised his eyebrows, and said calmly:
"Who are you? Gao Pan sent you here?"

"Xiaguan Dantang county magistrate, Mr. Gao is so busy, how could he tell his subordinates? If he hadn't heard from others, he wouldn't know that Mr. Wei is here now!"

Zhou Zhengxin quickly said in a humble manner, as if he had put aside his relationship with Gao Pan and narrowed the distance with Wei Yan'an.

"Oh? That's right. However, my young master...official, I'm here for autumn food. The matter is so important that nothing can be done carelessly. Zhou Xiancheng's kindness, I appreciate it!"

Wei Yan'an looked down on Zhou Zhengxin from the bottom of his heart. In his eyes, a local official like Zhou Zhengxin was not enough to move him.

Zhou Zhengxin said, his face was a little embarrassing, he didn't expect that Wei Yan'an didn't want to pay more attention to him at all, which made Zhou Zhengxin look a bit out of place at the moment.

"Master Zhou? You finally came to the county government office? Are you feeling better?"

At this moment, Gao Pan also came here. Seeing Zhou Zhengxin appearing beside Wei Yan'an, his eyes flickered, and he looked at Zhou Zhengxin with concern and said.

Zhou Zheng said in the news that he subconsciously wanted to retaliate to Gao Pan, but immediately felt wrong. Wei Yanan looked at him suspiciously at this moment, and knew that what he said before was all fart.

He just bowed slightly and said:

"The lower official just caught the wind and cold occasionally. After resting for two days, he is already much better. Thank you, Mr. Gao, for your concern!"

Now that the matter has come to this point, Zhou Zhengxin knows that Wei Yan'an will definitely not trust him easily again.

Thinking of this, Zhou Zhengxin sighed inwardly. If he had known this earlier, it would be better to speak clearly.

But it was these unclear words that made him miss the opportunity. At this moment, Wei Yan'an looked down on Zhou Zhengxin even more.

"That's very good, the county government still needs Zhou Xiancheng to sit in charge, otherwise, I will always feel uneasy in my heart!"

Gao Pan turned polite to Zhou Zhengxin, which made Zhou Zhengxin look at Gao Pan in surprise, feeling a little dazed.

It seems that at this moment, Gao Pan and himself are the same as the relationship between the superior and the subordinate?
However, the two of them were clearly incompatible before. Zhou Zhengxin wanted to force Gao Pan to leave, while Gao Pan was struggling to survive, so he must suppress Zhou Zhengxin. In addition, Zhou Zhengxin's private storage of autumn food had already made the two of them Turned his face, but on the surface he seemed very kind.

Although he didn't understand why Gao Pan was so polite and caring to him all of a sudden, Zhou Zhengxin didn't dare to underestimate Gao Pan anymore. He knew that it was reasonable for him to do so, and he wouldn't show his favor to him for no reason!
"Have you said enough? You don't feel disgusting yourself, but I feel disgusting! Gao Pan, how do you collect the autumn grain in your county? Just collect such old sesame seeds and rotten millet? Do you know the rules of tax collection? "

Wei Yan'an on the side suddenly let out a loud shout at this moment, looked at Gao Pan and Zhou Zhengxin with disdain and said.

This made Zhou Zhengxin instantly understand why Gao Pan wanted to show his favor to him.

This is completely blocked, the way to get closer to Wei Yan'an!
After thinking about this, Zhou Zhengxin looked at Gao Pan with a calm face in amazement, with mixed emotions in his heart. He had lived half his life, and he was not as clever as the young man in front of him?
"Master Wei, are you a bit picky? These autumn grains are all just harvested this year, and they are completely new. But you say these things are old grains? I'm sorry that I don't agree with you!"

Gao Panming knew that Wei Yan'an would find fault, but when he heard that Wei Yan'an was really talking about the quality of the grain, he was still a little angry.

"Gao Pan, is this the tone you used to talk to me? How to collect the autumn grain tax? It depends on what our grain supervisor said. I said you can't do this food, but you just can't do it! You dare to refute it, you really don't know how to live!"

At this moment, Wei Yan'an seemed to be upholding righteousness, and condemned Gao Pan loudly.

When Gao Pan saw this, a cold light flashed in his eyes. On the way back, Gao Pan was thinking about how Wei Yanan would make things difficult.

Thinking, firstly, the amount is wrong, and secondly, the quality of food and silver is not enough.

At this moment Wei Yan'an came up to talk about the quality of the food, which was also expected by Gao Pan.

On the way back, Gao Pan asked Yin Weian if there was any particularity in terms of quality and quality when harvesting summer and autumn grain in previous years.

The answer I got was that there is not much particularity, as long as it weighs enough, you can let it go, and as for the silver, you don't need to look at the quality, as long as the amount is right, no one will say anything.

Thinking of these, Gao Pan replied coldly:

"There's nothing wrong with a person who wants to commit a crime. Master Wei definitely believes that the quality of autumn grain in our county is not good, right?"

Hearing this, Wei Yan'an said with disdain:

"What? So what the official said? This is a rule set by the court, can you argue?"

"Okay, since that's the case... Come here, go to the homes of the common people in the city, and borrow a hunk of grain, so that Lord Wei can take a good look at what is perfect!"

Gritting his teeth, Gao Pan commanded in a deep voice, after he finished speaking, a Yamen messenger would lead him away.

Zhou Zhengxin, Yin Wei'an and the others beside Gao Pan were all terrified and thought, Gao Pan might have a hard time passing the test this time.

"Hmph, don't play any tricks, right now, whether the food is good or not, I have the final say!"

Seeing this, Wei Yan'an's eyelids twitched, and he had a bad premonition in his heart, but his mouth was still unforgiving.

"Master Wei, in Yiweili, has the word "Following the Decree", no matter how bold I am, I don't dare to play any tricks on Master Wei. I just want to show Master Wei the truth!"

Gao Pan replied neither humble nor overbearing.

It was in stark contrast to Wei Yan'an's expression of Lao Tzu's biggest expression at the moment, so that everyone present could tell who was superior at a glance.
