Facing Chang Wei, the wealthy people no longer dared to shout at him like they did before. Instead, they all sat where they were, staring at him with admiration, waiting for him to speak.

This shows that Wan Feiyan and his sister are more than one level lower than him.

Chang Wei said indifferently, "Everyone, since you are sincere in coming to Gu Chan to buy the blood of spiritual beasts, then don't make things difficult for the small Wan family. And considering the friendship between Gu Chan and the Wan family, the more you do this, the less likely he will sell you the blood of spiritual beasts. So next, I suggest that you all take a long-term view."

"How do we make a long-term plan? Please enlighten me, Mr. Chang." Xiao Xiang said sarcastically.

"Ms. Xiao, you don't have to speak in official language to me. If you don't cooperate with me right now, I can pat my chest and guarantee you that everyone here can buy the blood of spiritual beasts, except you, Xiao Xiang." Chang Wei said in a cold voice.

"You..." Xiao Xiang was suddenly choked speechless.

What does it mean to calm down the situation?

Chang Wei, that’s it.

He knew very well that if he wanted to appease everyone here, he had to start with Xiao Xiang.

This woman, as the eldest daughter of the Xiao family, which ranks third among the three top families in Jiangnan, is extremely famous both in terms of reputation and fame.

As long as she is subdued, none of these hundreds of wealthy families would dare to say no.

As the confrontation between the two began, the atmosphere in the lobby suddenly became tense.

No one dared to breathe, and no one dared to interrupt at this time.

Chang Wei said without fear, "I think everyone knows what happened at Jiangnan Academy last night. Gu Chan is now locked up in the county jail. If you want to buy the blood of a spirit beast, follow me to the county jail and ask the county magistrate to release him."

"Chang Wei, you have guts! You come here to support Gu Chan and the Wan family, right?" Xiao Xiang said with a grim face.

"I'll just hold the fort, okay? If Miss Xiao is not convinced, you can leave now. Otherwise, it will be impossible for you to use the blood of spirit beasts to improve your strength." Chang Wei said with a sneer.

Without waiting for Xiao Xiang to speak, he spoke first, "Miss Xiao, you used to be a level 4 physical athlete, much stronger than me, and I was still a little afraid of you. But now I am a level 5 physical athlete, and I am already stronger than you. You are no longer qualified to yell in front of me."

"Chang Wei, let's wait and see. It's just a drop of spirit beast blood. I don't want it. Just wait and see! You will suffer in future." Xiao Xiang was so angry that he slammed the table and roared.

Then she walked away with gnashing teeth in hatred, not daring to fight with Chang Wei easily.

If she had encountered this situation in the past, she would have definitely taught Chang Wei a lesson, but now Chang Wei was stronger than her, so she definitely didn't dare to do anything.

Chang Wei didn't care about her at all. He just stared at the wealthy people and said, "Everyone, can you come with me to the county government office?"

"Since Master Chang has said so, we will go with you."

"That's right, let's all accompany Master Chang to the county government to ask for someone. Once Gu Chan is rescued, we can get the blood of the spirit beast."

"Let's go! With Master Chang leading us, we have nothing to fear."

The attitudes of the big investors immediately changed 180 degrees, and everyone started to drink along.

Wan Feiyan and her brother breathed a sigh of relief when they saw this. At this moment, they admired Chang Wei even more.

Anyway, if he hadn't come today, Xiao Xiang would never let it go.

It can be said that it was because of him that the crisis faced by Gu Chan and the Wan family was resolved.

Chang Wei didn't waste any words. He immediately stood up and took Wan Feiyan's brother and sister and hundreds of wealthy people to the county government office in a mighty manner.

Half an hour later, everyone arrived outside the county government office and began to put pressure on the county magistrate Xu Ziguang.

Xu Ziguang, 42 years old this year, is broad and fat, with a fat round face and a black mole on the right side of his chin. As the number one lackey under the Jiangnan Chief Censor, he has helped Yan Xishan do many bad things during the years he served as a county magistrate.

He had originally not taken the detention of a small caravan owner from the north seriously, but unexpectedly, at noon the next day, hundreds of wealthy people came to block the door, and the leader was actually Chang Wei, the eldest son of the Chang family, who was very famous in the Jiangnan area.

You can imagine how panicked he was at this moment!

He ordered his lawyer to lead people to block Chang Wei and others outside the gate of the county government office. He changed into casual clothes, quietly slipped out of the back door of the county government office, and then took a carriage to rush to the Censorate.

After an incense stick of time, in the study room in the backyard of the Censorate's Mansion.

Xu Ziguang lowered his head and stood in front of the desk, anxiously saying, "Master Yan! What should I do now? Chang Wei led hundreds of wealthy people to the gate of my county government to make a fuss, asking me to release him. If I keep detaining that kid, I'm afraid something big will happen."

"Damn it, no wonder I said that the brat wasn't panicking at all last night. After all this time, he knew that something like this would happen today!" Yan Xishan sat behind the desk, cursing with a stiff face.

He really didn't expect something like this to happen today, otherwise he would have had to think again before framing Gu Chan last night.

Xu Ziguang added, "Lord Yan, Chang Wei is not a pushover. He brought hundreds of wealthy families to ask for people. If I don't give them to him, if he later entangles hundreds of wealthy families to oppose me and refuse to pay taxes, then you will have to make up for the taxes I pay to the court every month."

"You're such a good guy, Xu Ziguang. Now that you've run into trouble, you're pushing it all onto me, right?" Yan Xishan roared angrily.

"That's right! I haven't made a penny in these years! I have delivered all the silver handed in from all over Jiangnan to your house without a penny missing. Now I am penniless! You can't expect me to take the blame if something goes wrong, right?" Xu Ziguang shouted, spreading his hands.

As the saying goes, those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes.

He hasn't earned a penny these years, and all the benefits have been taken by Yan Xishan. So what is he afraid of?

Besides, the detention of Gu Chan last night was also an order from Yan Xishan. Logically speaking, this matter has nothing to do with him.

Now that something has happened, Yan Xishan wants him to take the blame. How is that possible?

Yan Xishan was so angry that his face turned red. He reached out and grabbed the inkstone on the desk, aimed it at Xu Ziguang's fat face, and smashed it hard with a bang.

"Ouch!"

Xu Ziguang screamed and fell to the ground, blood gushing out of his nose.

The dark ink in the inkstone splashed all over his face.

He put his hand over his nose and said in a deep voice, "Lord Yan, I don't think I have done anything wrong to you. This incident was caused by you, and I won't take the blame for it. You can dismiss me or kill me, I don't care. Anyway, I have kept the account book that I used to make money for you for so many years well. If I die, this account book will have to be sent to the Emperor in Kyoto, you can do whatever you want!"

"You...you are rebelling...you bastard...you son of a bitch...I..." Yan Xishan was so angry that he pointed at Xu Ziguang and cursed.

The funny thing is, in such a hurry, he couldn't even speak clearly.
