The world's first county magistrate

Chapter 18

Wu Zhenkun looked at Yuanwai Huang.

"Cough cough!"

Wu Zhenkun coughed twice: "I just found out about this news. Who would have thought that Song Wei found the salt mine by himself, but I have already sent someone to investigate. As for your salt, it will definitely be sold in a few days."

"I say that every time. How long has it been? Song Wei has found the salt mine. Doesn't he know how to guard it strictly?"

A little squire stood up and said.

Wu Zhenkun silently glanced at the person who stood up.

This person also had him when he pretended to entertain Song Wei before.

"Song Wei is just a clown. Do you think that if he can find the salt mine, he can really hold the salt mine firmly in his own hands?"

Wu Zhenkun said to the person who stood up.

Then he looked at the crowd and continued: "Isn't it the first time for everyone to do something? Don't you know who I am, Wu Zhenkun? I forgot who was one of you when it was good before, but now it's just Song Wei Once you find the salt mine, you can just make irresponsible remarks here!"

"If I don't succeed this time, I will personally apologize to Song Wei, ask him to raise the salt money, and let you sell the salt!"

Everyone bowed their heads in embarrassment when they heard Wu Zhenkun's words.

What Wu Zhenkun said is correct, they did raise the price of salt before, which made them a lot of money.

"Brother Wu, that's not what we meant. It's just that we have put all our money and even mortgaged our houses to hoard salt. If the salt can't be sold this time, we really have nothing to do."

A person stood up and said to Wu Zhenkun.

Wu Zhenkun nodded silently: "I also know your difficulties. Not only you, but I also spent a lot of money hoarding salt. We are all the same."

At this time Huang Yuanwai said again: "Brother Wu, it's not that I said it harshly. I think this time I really lost. Song Wei is no longer the same Song Wei as before. How dare he do this if he is not prepared?"

"Don't you believe me?"

Wu Zhenkun looked at Huang Yuanwai and asked back.

Huang Yuanwai was speechless for a while.

He also took advantage of Wu Zhenkun.

At this time, Huang Yuanwai and everyone couldn't say anything.

They all bid farewell and left the Wu Mansion.

Huang Yuanwai had just left the Wu Mansion and looked around, and after finding no one, he walked in a certain direction.

And the current county government has always been extremely lively, even surpassing the market.

Because Song Wei sells salt, the market is much closer to the Yamen.

"Brother Yamen servant, what do you think of me? Can I go to the salt mine?"

A person stood in front of Cai Hu and said.

Cai Hu slightly raised his head and looked.

Then he sneered in his heart: "Don't bother, you think I don't know you?"

The visitor was suddenly a little embarrassed.

Cai Hu stood up and said, "You are Wu Zhenkun's man, don't waste your time here. If you have this time, you might as well persuade Wu Zhenkun to apologize to our master, or you will hoard it yourself." You can't eat all the salt in your life, right?"

The visitor had nothing to say and left in a hurry.

Cai Hu looked at his leaving back and smiled: "Next!"

Cai Hu continued to get busy, on par with the salt seller.

After a while, a person stood in front of Cai Hu.

Cai Hu raised his head curiously when he saw that the visitor was silent.

Then there was a sneer in my heart.

The person who came was none other than Huang Yuanwai who had just left the Wu Mansion.

"Huang Yuanwai? Huang Yuanwai don't disturb my work, let's go."

Cai Hu said to Huang Yuanwai.

Officer Huang's expression froze, and then he whispered, "Cai Hu, I'm not here to trouble you this time, I want to see the county magistrate."

Cai Hu glanced at Huang Yuanwai in surprise: "Want to see the master?"

Huang Yuanwai nodded.

"No, master is very busy."

Cai Hu shook his head and said.

Huang Yuanwai's face became even uglier after hearing this.

"It's really urgent to see the county magistrate."

Huang Yuanwai said again.

Cai Hu looked at Huang Yuanwai, and then said: "Then I'll go and inform the master, it's up to the master if I can see you."

Yuanwai Huang's expression immediately brightened.

Then Cai Hu took Huang Yuanwai into the yamen, walked to a room and asked Huang Yuanwai to wait in the room.

Then he came to Song Wei's room and knocked on the door.

"Come in!"

After Song Wei's voice came from inside the door, Cai Hu walked in.

"Master, Mr. Huang said that he wants to see Master."

Cai Hu said silently.

"Huang Baifu?"

Cai Hu nodded.

"Okay, I know, I'll go over here where I am."

Song Wei said silently.

To be honest, Song Wei didn't know why Yuanwai Huang wanted to see him.

I was a little surprised by Yuanwai Huang's arrival.

Follow Cai Hu to Huang Yuanwai's room.

"Villain Huang Baifu, I pay my respects to the county magistrate."

When Huang Yuanwai saw Song Wei coming in, he said immediately.

"Huang Baifu, I heard you want to see me?"

Song Wei looked at Yuanwai Huang and said.

Huang Yuanwai said with an ugly face: "Yes! The villain did something wrong, and please let the adult put the villain back."

Song Wei nodded his head: "Where did Huang Yuanwai say that? This officer only detains those who don't listen to the notice."

Huang Yuanwai curled his lips, and then said solemnly: "It's the villain's fault. You shouldn't listen to Wu Zhenkun's words. The little one already knows it's wrong."

Song Wei looked carefully at Huang Yuanwai, and then said: "I didn't do anything to them, I just showed them to the public on the first day. Since you already know that you are wrong, then let me see your sincerity."

The corners of Huang Yuanwai's mouth twitched when he heard Song Wei's words.

"My lord, according to my guess, Wu Zhenkun wants to attack your lord's salt mine."

Huang Yuanwai said silently.

Song Wei nodded: "This official knows that since I dare to release the news about the salt mine, I will naturally know that Wu Zhenkun will do it."

The corner of Huang Yuanwai's mouth twitched again, and then he said: "The villain is willing to send someone to help the adult, as long as the adult has a word, the villain will definitely do his best."

Song Wei shook his head after hearing this: "I don't dare to use you, who knows what I want you to do, you just turn around and tell Wu Zhenkun."

Huang Yuanwai smiled awkwardly.

According to his previous temperament, he had already turned his face.

But now he didn't dare, after this incident, Huang Yuanwai was already disappointed in Wu Zhenkun.

So after making a decision, he immediately came to the Yamen to look for Song Wei.

"The villain swears to follow in the footsteps of the adults, and Wu Zhenkun's people have already started fighting among themselves, and the villain has also fallen out with Wu Zhenkun. The villain does not want to offend the adults."

Huang Yuanwai said to Song Wei.

Song Wei fixed his eyes on Huang Yuanwai after listening.

Then he said: "I trust you, if that's the case, then you release the news and come over tomorrow to help sell salt."

Huang Yuanwai's heart trembled, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

If he really comes to sell salt tomorrow, he will completely fall out with Wu Zhenkun, and there is no turning back.

He breathed a sigh of relief because Song Wei didn't make things difficult for him, and he could accept this request.

"Yes, my lord! That villain's person?"

Huang Yuanwai said.

"Look at your performance. If you do well, the official will release you immediately."

Song Wei said to Huang Yuanwai.

Huang Yuanwai nodded, but said nothing.

Song Wei looked at the sky outside, and then said to Huang Yuanwai: "It's getting late, let's go back first, come early tomorrow morning."
