Chapter 440 This house can’t survive without me
Lin Nan felt a sweet taste in his throat, and a mouthful of blood slowly overflowed from the corner of his lips.
Unfortunately, he was wearing a mask and no one knew.
Yan Ruyu chuckled from behind his head, and a chill ran through his body. He regretted extremely that he should not have betrayed Huo Changhe and should not have taken that wrong step.
But, it's all too late.
Yan Ruyu returned to Huo Changhe, and Huo Changhe held her hand tightly under the cover of his wide sleeves.
Magistrate Wu recovered from the shock, still feeling like he was surviving a disaster.
How pitiful God was, it turned out that the person God was referring to was not him, but the Lord of Yongchang County!
He said that since he had been suppressed like this, he was almost like a dog. How could God have the nerve to accuse him?
Both aggrieved and excited.
I want to cry.
The master supported him and wiped his tears: "Brother-in-law..."
The two looked at each other, deeply understanding each other's difficulties.
Magistrate Wu walked up to Lin Nan and bowed deeply: "Thank you, shaman master."
The blood from the corner of Lin Nan's mouth dripped silently into the collar of his neck. He stared at Magistrate Wu: Thank you so much.
Magistrate Wu walked up to Huo Changhe again: "Thank you, Mr. Jia."
Thank you for what? Only now did Magistrate Wu come to realize Huo Changhe's painstaking efforts.
Why should we hold a church meeting? Why should we ask the government officials to arrest people and conduct inspections several times to ensure that there are no ordinary people around.
If someone died, he would not be able to escape the blame.
Huo Changhe gave him a hand: "Sir, there is no need to be too polite. The people under your rule are watching. You must be a good parent and official, soothe people's hearts, stabilize prices, and maintain order. In addition, you must seize the time and send people to repair the roads outside the city. Ditch, no shirk, delay time.”
Magistrate Wu has been in the officialdom for so many years, so he naturally understands the importance of what he said.
But now I could not hide my gratitude and surprise when I heard that Huo Changhe was calm and calm, explaining everything in detail and making sense.
"Thank you Mr. Jia for reminding me. I will definitely do it. Mr. Jia is such a talented person, I deeply admire him."
"Okay, Magistrate Wu, there should be this fate between you and me. Don't be so polite. Be an official well and love and protect the people you rule. Naturally, they will also respect and love you. They have you in their hearts. This is what it means to be an official." The meaning of it.”
"Yes, yes, I have learned from you." Magistrate Wu nodded repeatedly and saluted again.
He left in a hurry and took his master and his servants to maintain order and allow the people to evacuate safely. He also arranged for people to find craftsmen to repair the roads and ditches outside the city.
He quickly interviewed the merchants and reminded them not to take advantage of the chaos to cause trouble, and said that if they cooperate with the government at this time and do business well, tax revenue will return to normal starting next month.
Now Magistrate Wu is full of great ambitions, and feels that he has found his original intention when he was first taking the merit test, to be an official, to do practical things for the people.
As for the head of Yongchang County, God will not bless her, and he doesn't want to care about it anymore. As for the rest, go to hell, do whatever you want.
It was so busy that the sky was dark, but the work was tiring and fulfilling. Before I could take any time off, the equally busy master ran in from outside.
"Sir, brother-in-law! Mr. Jia ordered someone to send 2 taels of silver to help us build roads and ditches outside the city!"
Magistrate Wu was stunned: "Really?"
"Then there is still time. The silver cart has arrived at the door. This is the first time I have seen so much cash. Come on, go and count it!"
Magistrate Wu quickly followed him out. When he arrived at the door, many people also learned the news and came to take a look.
After opening several boxes, they were filled with white silver ingots.
The person who came was none other than the secret guard driver. Yan Ruyu and Huo Changhe didn't even show their faces.
"Wu County Magistrate, please accept it," the secret guard said expressionlessly, "My young master said that this money is a small token of gratitude to help you and the people tide over the difficulties. I hope the road will be smooth as soon as possible."
Magistrate Wu was so excited that he almost cried. The fact that his master did not show up showed that he did not want to steal his limelight. He, the magistrate, had to arrange everything so that the people would appreciate him.
Magistrate Wu bowed deeply and said, "Please tell me that I will make good use of this money and not a penny will be wasted!"
……
"Hahahaha!"
"Hahahaha!"
"Lord Wude, do not bless Yongchang!" The eldest lady laughed from the scene to the inn, "Did you see it? Those eight words, every word is clear!"
Huo Changxu handed the cup to her and said helplessly: "Yes, we all saw it. Mother, please drink some tea quickly, your voice is dumb."
The eldest lady drank half of the cup in one breath and continued to laugh.
"It's so satisfying. That woman is so immoral that even God can't bear to see her. I wonder how she can be the head of her county now!"
"Where can I put that face?"
Huo Changxu looked around and said in a low voice: "Mother, do you really think that this is God's will and God's doing?"
The eldest lady stopped laughing and took another sip of tea: "What do you mean? Doubt God?"
"I'm not doubting God," Huo Changxu sighed, "I am...this has nothing to do with God! God is so busy, how can he have time to care about this?"
"Think carefully about those eight words..."
"The Lord of the Wude County will not bless Yongchang!" the eldest lady repeated.
"Yes, those are the eight words," Huo Changxu was about to continue, but the eldest lady stopped him, "Say it again."
Huo Changxu was helpless: "...Wude County Lord, Bless Yongchang, don't these eight characters look familiar to you?"
The eldest lady was stunned: "Does it look familiar?"
The scene at that time was too shocking, and the distance was not very close. I was worried that I couldn't see clearly when I stared at it, so I couldn't think about whether the handwriting was familiar or not.
Moreover, the strange rocks did not stay on the water for long, and no one paid attention to it.
Now when Huo Changxu mentioned it, the eldest lady thought about it carefully and suddenly took a breath.
"That is……"
"Yes, it is my eldest brother's handwriting. Although it is carved on stone, it is not the same as writing with a pen. But I have practiced calligraphy with my eldest brother since I was a child. I am very familiar with his handwriting."
Huo Changxu said with determination: "I can be sure that it is the handwriting of eldest brother."
The eldest lady stood up in shock, thought about it carefully, and shook her head in denial: "No, no, maybe it's just that the handwriting is similar. That's water, and stones appear in the water. How can your elder brother do such a thing? There's also an earthquake. .”
"I know you think your eldest brother is the best in the world, and I also think my son is extremely outstanding, but these things are not man-made."
Huo Changxu was silent for a moment: "Don't forget, there is also my sister-in-law with him."
The eldest lady was stunned: "Together with Ruyu... then..."
She was stunned, and the mother and son looked at each other: "Ruyu, can you do it?"
Huo Changxu nodded slowly: "I think so."
At the same time, the abbot locked the door in the room, his consciousness quickly entered the space, and called Yan Ruyu.
"Ruyu, did you do that? Needless to say, the earth shook. Gunpowder must have been used!"
The abbot spoke in a rapid-fire manner: "Did that strange stone follow what Wu Zhao did back then? Is it right?"
Yan Ruyu's voice was full of laughter: "You are smart, yes, it's me."
The abbot was surprised and excited: "How did you do it? This is no small matter!"
"I'm not alone. I have a strong support team. We can work together, of course." Yan Ruyu did not explain in detail. "I still have things to do here. Please pay attention to the situation of the eldest lady. She is resistant to Yongchang. .”
"Understood," the abbot agreed. "Don't worry, the eldest lady is much better now. It's so pleasant to let out this bad breath! Besides, I also made insinuations before, so she won't go too far."
"Okay, I'll leave everything to you."
After hanging up after chatting, the abbot sighed: Look, this family can't survive without me.
