The battle of the Yan family to propose marriage was not small. The matchmaker wearing big red flowers walked in the front, followed by those beating gongs and drums. At the time of the Yamen, many people had already attracted many people to watch, pointing at this passer-by and talking about it, it was obvious that the Yan family was bullying the new magistrate.

"The Yan family won't really press the head of the magistrate and agree to this marriage, right? The mother tiger of the Yan family and the magistrate are like a flower stuck in cow dung." Of course the flowers refer to the magistrate, Although the magistrate looked quite innocent, but those who had seen Gu Zhao used martial arts that day knew that he was not a frail scholar.

Someone squeezed into the crowd, stared dumbfounded at the scene, and asked in surprise, "What is this doing?"

"Oh, there have been a lot of guests coming from other places recently. The little brother has just come to our Yaochang mansion. This is the Yan family who wants to propose marriage to the magistrate for the Yan family's tigress."

"The magistrate agrees?" the man asked in surprise.

"Where is it possible, when the magistrate did not reveal his identity on the first day of his arrival, the tigress wanted to rob the civilian men, but was rejected by the magistrate. The tigress and the Yan family still did not give up. in the eyes."

"It's all right? How powerful is the Yan family, dare to treat the imperial court officials like this? Are they not afraid of the imperial court's punishment?"

"Brother is indeed a newcomer. I don't know what the four major families of our Yaochang Mansion, what is the Yamen? When did they take the Yamen seriously, the imperial court? That's because they can't quench their thirst."

"Then the magistrate will allow the Yan family to bully him like this?" the visitor said angrily.

"Probably not, otherwise I wouldn't call back that day, just wait and watch the show."

The person who came was still very angry, these people outside actually took such a scene as a drama, he really wanted to rush over to do something.

At this time, the marriage proposal team had arrived at the gate of the yamen, and it was so lively all the way. At this time, there was a voice from the yamen: "Rush against the court officials, rush into the court's official office, ignore the court's etiquette, let me take them all down!"

"Yes!"

Dozens of people rushed out of the yamen, and the onlookers were startled. However, these officials in uniform did not go at the common people, but rushed at the Yan family and the group, and screams sounded immediately, but the Yan family These people are not the opponents of the officials at all. The people watched them fall into the hands of the officials one by one. Some people wanted to shout, but their mouths were blocked by a ball of cloth.

Master Fan came out at this time, looked coldly at the arrested Yan family members, including the matchmaker, waved his hands and said: "All put in jail!" He cupped his hands in the direction of the capital and said, "Anyone who disrespects the yamen or the imperial court Those who commit crimes will be punished severely! I hope everyone will take this as a warning!"

Gu Zhao didn't even show his face, and the farce ended like this, and the people were stunned.

Master Fan flicked his sleeves and was about to turn around and enter the yamen, when he suddenly saw a familiar face, he was overjoyed and walked towards this person: "When did Master Ren come? Your Excellency is looking forward to Master Ren, follow me in quickly. "

Gu Ren patted his face. He was furious because he saw such an arrogant scene of the Yan family before. The third uncle had a very high image in his mind, but he was so bullied by others. He wanted to rush out and fight these people desperately. In the end, Master Fan led someone to solve it in a blink of an eye, so fast that he couldn't react.

Patting his face to wake himself up, Gu Ren quickly said: "I just entered the city, and I wanted to surprise my third uncle. I didn't expect this to happen. I miss my third uncle too."

Gu Ren brought two guards into the yamen with Fan Shiye, and the person who talked to him before realized that this person's identity was different. Hearing the tone of his voice, could he be the magistrate's nephew?But this nephew didn't seem to be younger than the magistrate.

Yes, Gu Ren was no younger than Gu Zhao in the first place, and as a result of his frequent travels and exposure to wind and sun, his face looked older than Gu Zhao's by more than one year.

The task of manpower training was handed over to Shi Mao and the guards assigned to him by Gu Mu. Gu Zhao himself was not idle, either tossing about weeds in the eyes of others, or looking through the documents and materials in the yamen, from messy Sort out what he wants, such as how many arable fields and mines there are in the entire Yaochang Mansion, and he doesn't care about the farce outside. If he goes out, it will be too much face for the Yan family up.

His reasons for arresting people are also aboveboard, and the higher authorities can only find out that the Yan family is rude, so ignoring them is the best, otherwise, what is the purpose of throwing away so much money?

"My lord, let's see who's coming!" Master Fan's surprised voice came from outside.

Gu Zhao immediately got up to greet him: "Is Ren'er here?"

"Third Uncle!" Gu Ren's voice came, and it really was Gu Ren.

Gu Zhao laughed out loud, Gu Ren came earlier than he expected, it can be seen that he was rushing along the road without much rest.

When he saw Gu Ren, he really saw his dusty appearance, before he even had time to wash his face, Gu Zhao happily patted his arm: "Ren'er!"

"Third Uncle!" Gu Ren also called out excitedly. He thought that it would be difficult for him to see him all year long when his third uncle came to work in such a far place. He didn't expect that his third uncle would write a letter asking him to come and help. Of course Ren packed his luggage and set off to come here after receiving the letter. He hoped so much that he could help the third uncle, so naturally he came here without hesitation.

"It's great that Ren'er can come. I'll clean up Ren'er first, and I'll talk about it later if I have something to say."

"Okay, third uncle, if there is anything third uncle wants me to do, just ask."

"Ren'er and I will not be polite, there are many things that Ren'er needs to do for me."

Gu Ren is silly, that's really great.

Gu Zhao took Gu Ren to the house behind the yamen, let him rest for one night after washing, and cared about his situation on the road, worried that he would encounter horse thieves, and it was imminent to solve the problem of horse thieves, otherwise Yaochang City No matter how it develops, it will also give rations to those horse thieves.

Gu Zhao was reunited with his nephew here, but there was an uproar in the outer city. No one expected Gu Zhao to make such a move beforehand, and there was no chance for the Yan family to speak.

The boss of the Yan family was terrified, this was clearly a slap in the face of the Yan family, and he was about to lead a group of people into the yamen to snatch the Yan family members out.

"Stop! You think my Yan family has not given enough excuses, don't you? You want the new magistrate to take the opportunity to destroy our Yan family, don't you?"

"Why is it so serious?"

"What is the equivalent of bringing people to the Yamen? That is tantamount to rebellion. No matter how high the sky is, the emperor is far away. If the capital knows about this, what will you think?"

"Then you have to get the news out!" The boss of the Yan family didn't take Gu Zhao's handsome face seriously at all. If Gu Zhao dared to touch someone from the Yan family, then why the Yan family was being polite to the handsome boy, he should let the handsome boy know Who is in charge of this world.

"You stay at home honestly, and you are not allowed to go anywhere!" The head of the Yan family said angrily, "The other three families have not moved, but our Yan family has jumped high. If there is any harm in the end, it will only be the Yan family's back." , why didn’t you see the other three move? They are all waiting and watching, and you are the only one who is rushing forward!”

Patriarch Yan was not at ease, and even asked someone to watch over his son and daughter. He thought he was a smart person, although outsiders treated him like a big boss, it was a pity that none of his children inherited his brain.

A subordinate ran in and whispered a few words in Patriarch Yan's ear, and then asked Patriarch Yan: "Master, what should we do now?"

Patriarch Yan gritted his teeth, and words came out from the yamen. He wanted to fish out the Yan family and get a ransom. Different people have different ransom prices. Patriarch Yan walked around the house, and he would grind away the land. In his opinion, it is wrong to do anything about this matter.

After this fight, he found that the new magistrate was not so easy to deal with. It might not be easy to force him to compromise. His style of behavior was not the same as that of the officials sent before. I am afraid that the other three families have something to say, and they will think that the Yan family has compromised with the new magistrate.

Master Yan scratched his head: "If I knew it earlier, I shouldn't have agreed to Ya'er's nonsense, and now I'm getting stuck." In the end, he was discouraged, "Go and talk to them over there, and try to lower the price a little. People are thrown in jail."

The head of the Yan family didn't want to be the rafter in his early years, while the other three families hid behind and watched the show. Although the four families were usually united in the outside world, they were not without conflicts and harmony.

Giving up money to redeem people is naturally the method Gu Zhao proposed. He can't keep people in prison forever, and the yamen also provides food. He is not happy to provide these people with food, because he is the one who pays out the money now. , without any entry.

It's great to be able to knock a sum of money from the heads of these four families now, it's the first pot of gold after the opening of the yamen, this is a good sign, well, Gu Zhao thinks so.

Anyway, leave this matter to Mr. Fan. When Gu Ren got up the next day, Gu Zhao and him tossed rubber grass together. He asked Gu Ren to take the lead in running a rubber workshop to develop the special products of Yaochang City. Others were inexperienced, but Gu Ren followed him step by step and developed Eucommia jelly to the scale it is today, so this matter must be done by Gu Ren.

When Gu Ren saw the pile of rubber grass sent by the guide before, and then heard what Gu Zhao said, he was shocked: "What the third uncle said is true? Rubber can also be extracted from this weed?"

"Yes, it can be extracted. Look at the jelly that I extracted using the roughest method." Gu Zhao handed Gu Ren a piece of the jelly that he made, which still contained a lot of impurities and needed further extraction.

Gu Ren took it and watched it over and over again, amazed. He didn't expect that rubber could be extracted from an inconspicuous weed. Since he was in charge of this business, he knew the value of rubber very well. Then he looked up. Xiang Gu Zhao understood Gu Zhao's meaning: "So, when this rubber is developed, Yaochang City will not worry about not being able to develop, right?"

"Yes, so everything depends on Ren'er." Gu Zhao encouraged.

Gu Rendun felt that the pressure on his shoulders was not light, but he thought that the pressure on his third uncle was even greater. If he wanted to break free from the local forces and make achievements, the development of this rubber was crucial. He nodded vigorously: "Three Don't worry, uncle, I will definitely do this well."
