Joe's Farming

On the other side, Qiao Yu and Xu Yuan's families set sail happily.

On the other hand, King Qi was furious about the case of Haitang County Magistrate.

"A mere seventh-rank official has amassed a fortune of 100,000 taels of silver in just five years! This is outrageous! I am so angry!"

The King of Qi was so angry that he threw the account book handed to him by the county magistrate on the table.

Haitang County Magistrate Liu Wenzhi knelt on the ground and said earnestly, "During his tenure, Haitang County Magistrate abused his power, bullied the people, and confused right and wrong. I hope Your Majesty will conduct a thorough investigation."

He had been secretly collecting this evidence for many years just to wait for this day to come.

Because he refused to go along with the county magistrate, the most tiring official duties were handed over to him.

He was sent to the countryside to collect taxes today. This kind of thing would not have been assigned to him, but he had to go today.

It turned out that he wanted to get him out of the way to perform a big drama, but he ended up ruining himself.

The King of Qi asked him to stand up.

"I understand. From now on, you will temporarily handle the affairs of the county government. I will ask the Qingzhou prefect to come and hear the case."

The reason why it was not handed over to the Nanzhou prefect was because they were afraid that officials would protect each other and it would be unfair.

By the time I finished all my official business, the moon had already risen above the branches.

The coconut chicken that King Qi had eaten at noon had already been digested.

I was just planning to ask Suifeng to go out for a nice meal.

Then I saw someone waiting outside the county government office.

The King of Qi remembered him.

It is said that he has great medical skills.

The King of Qi loved talents, so he took the initiative to greet him: "Have you eaten?"

Gu Xi smiled when she heard this: "I was just thinking of inviting you to join us, would you do me the honor?"

The King of Qi was always informal and said, "Let's go."

Suifeng followed behind him and rolled his eyes.

The night in Haitang Town is very beautiful. Lanterns are hung on the shops along the street, and the lights are reflected on the river surface, like a dream.

Gu Xi chose a restaurant by the river where he could enjoy the breeze and the view.

The specialty of the store is river seafood.

Gu Xi ordered all kinds of dishes, including fried, steamed and stir-fried.

The King of Qi thought to himself that this man was really rude, but when he thought about his own status, how could he bother with ordinary people?

While waiting for the dishes to be served, Gu Xi began to introduce herself while pouring tea for King Qi.

"My name is Gu Xi, the one who cherishes. I am twenty-five this year. I learned from the Divine Doctor Valley and my medical skills are quite good. I have a house and a car in Haitang Town and I have an apprentice. I am not married yet. How about you, Your Majesty?"

The King of Qi narrowed his eyes.

If he still doesn't know this man's intentions by now, he is blind.

"Doctor Gu, are you interested in this king?"

Suifeng quickly turned his back and pretended not to hear.

Gu Xi didn't expect the King of Qi to be so frank, and said happily: "You figured it out? I was afraid of offending you, so I hesitated and didn't know how to say it out loud."

King Qi: "It is indeed quite offensive. And quite bold."

Gu Xi: ...

"I'm sorry if I offended you, but can you just pretend you didn't notice it?"

There was no sign of being shocked on Gu Xi's face, and the King of Qi just said "hmm".

It was the first time that King Qi met someone as bold as Gu Xi, but he actually didn't find him that annoying.

"How good are your medical skills?"

The King of Qi suddenly asked.

Gu Xi was flattered and talked incessantly about the cases he had cured.

He actually prefers surgery and is good at all kinds of operations. He is still learning the pharmacology of this world.

But what the world lacks is medical skills like his.

So after hearing this, the King of Qi couldn't help but want to use his talent.

"I wonder if Doctor Gu is willing to work at the Imperial Hospital in Beijing?"

When Gu Xi heard this, she wondered, isn’t this the highest official organization in the medical field today?

Without hesitation, he said, "Go!"

The King of Qi was very satisfied with this.

So when Gu Xi asked him again whether he was married, he told her the truth.

"I have been engaged to Ji Wanning since childhood. He is serving in the Imperial Guards. You might run into him when you go to the capital."

pat-

Gu Xi's true heart was silently shattered.

Suifeng shook his shoulders, mocking the country doctor for being ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth.

"Oh, really? Your fiancé's name is so nice. He must be a very gentle person."

The King of Qi seemed to have heard a huge joke.

"Follow the wind, hahahaha. Is Ji Wanning gentle? Hahahaha."

Sui Feng said sincerely: "General Xiao Ji is cold on the outside but warm on the inside. I believe he is gentle to his master in his heart."

The King of Qi stopped smiling and was no longer gentle to him!

But there is no need to talk about these things in front of outsiders.

Gu Xi drank the wine in the glass silently. Well, I should have listened to Qiao Yu and stayed away from King Qi.

With such a good family background, it is natural that she has been taken long ago.

I really envy his fiancé who is cold on the outside but warm on the inside.

ah-

Ji Wanning, who was far away in Beijing, sneezed on a midsummer night.

He looked at the bright moon outside the window.

I wonder if Your Highness is also looking at the same moon.

-

There were two tables on the boat under the moonlight.

Above are various prepared foods packed in Haitang Town, as well as several hot dishes made in the ship’s kitchen.

Today was a false alarm, and Qiao Yu felt that he must reward everyone well.

The guards couldn't drink alcohol, so Qiao Yu used tea instead of wine to say a lot of words of thanks.

The younger ones looked confused, but that didn't stop them from enjoying the delicious food.

The meal didn't end until the hour of Hai.

Children feel sleepy when they are full.

The two fathers came out after they had coaxed their children into submission. The four of them sat at the bow of the boat, chatting in low voices.

"Fortunately, the King of Qi showed up in time today. Otherwise, we would have been in jail."

Qiao Yu was still frightened.

Xu Yuan: "I didn't check it clearly. I was too anxious when I opened the store."

"It's not your fault. The Black Tiger Gang was established later."

"Yes, but after all, I didn't know enough about the local businessmen, which led to what happened today."

Qiao Yu: "In the future, we can change to another model, such as finding local people to cooperate with, providing recipes and technology, and sharing profits in proportion."

Xu Ning smiled and said, “Same as Yipinxuan.”

Qiao Yu nodded: "Yes, we can even let them call it Yipinxuan, but they have to pay us for the right to use the name."

Xu Yuan smiled and nodded: "If you want to use the name of Yipinxuan, I hope to evaluate the store's reputation every year. If it is too bad, I will take back the right to use it."

Gu Feng commented: "Good idea."

"Hahahaha. Awesome!"

The four of them became happier and happier as they talked, and finally went back to their room to sleep at midnight.

When everyone opened their eyes, the ship had already arrived at the North Pier of Nanyang.

Because of the favorable wind and current last night, the ship was moving very fast.

Qiao Yu was woken up by Gu Heng.

He dressed himself and waited in bed for a while.

As a result, Qiao Yu was seen still nestled in Gu Feng's arms, sleeping soundly.

So the little guy got out of bed and went to find his brothers and sisters.

However, because the two fathers of the Xu family had not yet woken up, the guards did not dare to let them get off the boat.

In the end, Gu Heng had no choice but to go back to the house and wake up his two fathers.

"Daddy, Daddy. The sun is burning my butt!"
