Joe's Farming

When Ling Lie saw people getting on the car, he quickly took Xiao Si to hire a carriage and followed from a distance behind.

After the carriage leaves Taoyuan Town, there are only two roads, one leading to the provincial capital and other counties, and the other leading to Qingyuan Town.

When Ling Lie saw the carriage in front of him turn onto the road to Qingyuan Town, he asked the driver to go slower so as not to be noticed by the people in front.

He could probably guess which store this group of people were going to check out.

Qingfeng Village always starts with the richest rich people. Isn’t the richest family in Qingyuan Town the family of his boss’s sworn brother?

Sure enough, after the carriage arrived at Qingyuan Town, three people got off.

The remaining Tian Qi went directly to Yipinxuan.

They were going to act separately. Tian Qi would go to Yipinxuan to get information about the Xu family, while the others would go to find out what industries the Xu family had in the town.

It seems that the second in command had done his homework in advance. He knew about Yipinxuan and the Xu family's developed industry.

Xiaojiu: "Boss, what should we do now?"

Ling Lie: "You go back to Taoyuan Town to find Xiao Si. I'll keep an eye on him here."

Ling Lie got off the carriage and found a seat with his back to Tian Qi while he was chatting with Shopkeeper Xu.

The waiter came up to him and asked him what he wanted. Ling Lie asked for a serving of pickled fish with a chopped throat.

Even if you are being tracked, you should have a good meal.

Tian Qi lied that his family was engaged in the business of selling mountain products and asked Manager Xu where in the town he could find people to buy them.

Shopkeeper Xu naturally agreed to buy Yipinxuan and asked him what mountain products he had.

Tian Qi changed his previous image, became very polite, and started chatting with the shopkeeper.

Ling Lie was not interested in what followed. After he finished eating the pickled fish and paid the bill, he left Yipinxuan and quietly went to Xu's house.

The doorman of the Xu residence looked at the unfamiliar, slightly ruffian-looking handsome man in front of him and asked, "Who are you looking for?"

Ling Lie: "Your Young Master Xu."

The concierge immediately changed his address: "You are..."

Ling Lie: "My boss is your young master's sworn brother. It's really urgent. Could you please let me go first?"

When the doorman heard that it was someone from Qiao Yu's side, he immediately opened the door: "You should have told me earlier. Your boss has such a good relationship with our young master. I would have opened the door for you if you had told me earlier."

Ling Lie urged: "Well, walk faster."

After Qiao Yu finished lunch and fed Gu Heng with Gu Feng, she prepared to take a nap in bed with the father and son.

However, Qiao Yu couldn't sleep, she just pretended to be calm in front of Gu Feng.

Are you kidding? You are a bandit.

But they are not the NPCs in games that increase experience, but real bandits who can kill people.

If it was a year ago, he would definitely not be afraid.

But now, as Bai Lan said, our family is so rich, it would be strange if the bandits didn't target us.

Especially the Xu Yuan family, which is famous for its wealth in the entire Taoyuan County.

"Qiaoer can't sleep?" Gu Feng spoke with his eyes closed.

Qiao Yu was surprised: "How did you know?"

"Your breathing has changed. Are you worried about the bandits? Don't worry. I'm here and will not let anything happen to you or our family."

After hearing this, Qiao Yu felt inexplicably relieved.

"Ah."

I just hope Ling Lie can be more powerful and help Lord Xie capture all these people.

-

Xie Changyu didn't expect that Qiao Yu's people were so capable. He asked them to come over to help last night.

Just after breakfast, a man who claimed to be Xiao Si from the villa guard team came to tip off.

Xie Changyu had to admit that after he made the arrangements last night, they certainly hadn't seen a single suspicious person, let alone found out the details.

Xiao Si knew those four people. Ling Lie asked him to come over firstly to report that he had found the people, and secondly to help the government officials draw their portraits.

Xie Changyu didn't expect things to go so smoothly, so he quickly found a painter to paint the portrait.

An hour later, the painter finally finished the portrait.

Xiao Si thought it was okay and was about to go out to meet up with Ling Lie when he saw Xiao Jiu also coming.

"Why are you here?" Xiao Si asked in surprise.

Xiaojiu clasped his fists towards Xie Changyu and said, "My Lord, I am Xiaojiu. Brother Ling and I followed those four people to Qingyuan Town.

We have confirmed that their target this time is the Xu family. Please let us know what we need to do next."

What a Qingfeng Village! They come here and want to take over the richest man in Taoyuan! Xie Changyu cursed inwardly.

Xie Changyu originally wanted to take people directly over to arrest the person.

But now that I think about it, now that we know their intentions, it will be easier to prevent them. And they are now in the dark, while the bandits are in the light.

It’s really not cost-effective if you don’t go for the big ticket items.

So he made a prompt decision and said, "Tell Ling Lie a message and ask him to keep an eye on the man. I will send people to Qingyuan Town to deploy. Don't alarm them for the time being.

Wait for them to contact the Shanzhai.”

Xiao Jiu: "Yes, sir. I will take my leave now."

Xiaojiu winked at Xiaosi, who then reacted. He bowed to Xie Changyu again before going out with Xiaojiu.

Xu Yuan and Xu Ning were taking a nap in the yard as usual.

The maple leaves in the yard began to turn red again. Xu Ning knew that her husband liked it, so she moved the chaise longue to the yard like before so that Xu Yuan could bask in the sun comfortably.

But this time, Xu Yuan was no longer a sickly person who could not get out of bed. In addition to the chaise longue, there was also a large cradle in the yard.

When Ling Lie came in, he saw such a harmonious picture.

Xu Yuan and Xu Ning had been to the villa so many times, so they naturally knew Ling Lie and quickly stood up to greet the guest.

Xu Yuan smiled and said, "Why is Chef Ling here? Did my brother Qiao send you here?"

Ling Lie cupped his hands and said, "Mr. Xu, you and your husband should not panic when you hear what I am going to say next. The county magistrate already knows about this matter, and the government will protect you."

Xu Ning realized the seriousness of the matter and asked anxiously, "What happened? Is there someone causing trouble in our store?"

Xu Yuan calmly held her husband's hand and said soothingly, "It's no big deal to make trouble. Let's listen to what Chef Ling has to say first."

Ling Lie smiled and said, “In fact, I wanted to say this just now. Just call me Ling Lie. I don’t dare to be the chef when the boss is here.

I'll keep it short.

I believe you two have heard about my background from your boss and know my identity.

Last night, people from Qingfeng Village arrived in Taoyuan Town, and then came to Qingyuan Town today.

There are four people in total this time, and they came to your house to scout out the place.

The leader of the four people is called Tian Qi. He just pretended to be a mountain product dealer in Yipinxuan and tried to trick your boss. The other three must have been asking around in your other stores.

I'm here to tell you to be prepared, but don't go too far and let those four know that we already know.

Wait for the officials to come."

"What?! You said the bandits are targeting my house?" Xu Ning shouted.

He still remembered the name Qingfengzhai, the bandit den that had caused great suffering in Suining last year.

Ling Lie nodded solemnly: "Yes. The boss's intention is that our two families should cooperate with the government officials and work together to lure the enemy into a trap.

If we alert them, we won’t be able to catch the big fish behind them.”

Xu Yuan nodded: "I agree, instead of worrying about them coming to our door, it is better to take the initiative!

But I don’t understand why they would target our family.”
