Rivers and lakes rich man

Chapter 136
Xu Jingwei roughly told Fang Jing that the woman didn't come here for the Seven-Color Silkworm.

According to the woman, she sensed the jade pendant on Xu Jingwei's body, and the jade pendant was her goal.

In this way, even if Xu Jingwei's appearance is exposed and people in the world know the relationship between Xu Jingwei and Xu Niyi, Fang Jing is not too afraid.

Those who are interested in the Seven-Color Skyworm are nothing more than the Sancai Sect and other forces.

The strength of these forces is good, but Fang Jing believes that he can handle it now.

They can't let the most powerful master in the sect take action for the sake of the seven-color silkworm sect, can they?

Except for a few, Fang Jing is confident that he can take care of everyone else.

As long as he is not a master of Tianjing or above, Fang Jing can solve it.

What makes Fang Jing really afraid is the power behind this woman.

She is only in her twenties, and she already has a realm, so the masters of her sect are daunting.

Fang Jing knew that he was not their opponent now.

Fortunately, she came for Yupei, and happened to sense Yupei through some means.

It wasn't aimed at Xu Jingwei, so other than her, no one in her faction or sect knew that Xu Jingwei had a jade pendant.

Then I only need to face the greedy people who want to get the seven-color silkworm. There is some pressure, but it is not so fatal.

Xu Jingwei calmed down after crying, and found herself in Fang Jing's arms, feeling very shy in her heart.

"Wipe it off." Fang Jing handed Xu Jingwei a handkerchief and said.

Xu Jingwei blushed, embarrassed to speak out, but took the handkerchief and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.

While wiping tears, Xu Jingwei saw Zijuan and Ziyan smiling at her, she couldn't help lowering her head, but her heart was sweet.

She didn't know where she had the courage to throw herself into Brother Fang's arms just now.

In Brother Fang's arms, she felt so safe and secure.

"Brother Fang is so powerful, he must be fine." Xu Jingwei thought to herself.

She believed that Fang Jing would be able to protect herself and her mother.

When she returned to her residence, Wang Xiyue shed tears of excitement when she saw Xu Jingwei came back safely.

Xu Jingwei was taken away, and Wang Xiyue blamed herself very much.

If it wasn't for his suggestion to bring Xu Jingwei along, perhaps such a thing would not have happened.

If Xu Jingwei really had an accident, Wang Xiyue might not be able to forgive herself in this life.

Fortunately, Fang Jing rescued him in time.

Seeing the two girls hugging each other and crying, Fang Jing couldn't help persuading him hastily: "It's all right now, Jingwei was frightened, Xiyue, you should spend more time with her."

"Brother Fang, I'm fine." Xu Jingwei whispered.

"Tonight you stay in the room with me." Wang Xiyue pulled Xu Jingwei and said.

Xu Jingwei nodded, she was surprised, and with Wang Xiyue talking with her, she would feel more at ease.

"Come back tonight and tell me about that woman. I'll go to the Qianhu Office first."

Wulin Wei Qianhu Office.

Due to Tao Tong's death, the faces of the people at the Qianhu Office were a little ugly.

Although for most of the martial arts guards, their responsibilities are not great, but the Deputy Qianhu Wei Jiading who has the greatest responsibility is now putting a lot of pressure on them.

Find pirates, catch pirates.

Blood Shark's people had fled long ago, and they couldn't catch them.

Then the Wei family decided to ask them to find the pirates lurking on the shore, such as pirates like Zhou Shu, if they could fish out some, it would be considered a redemption.

Wei Jiading is the deputy Qianhu of the Qianhu Office, which is different from Fang Jing.

Fang Jing is also the deputy Qianhu, but he is specifically in charge of Baishui and Qingshan counties. He has no power over the Qianhu Office, but this also prevents him from taking much responsibility.

Wei Jiading was sitting in the lobby of the Thousand Households Office, his mood was a little complicated.

Zhou Shu's incident made him very passive, and Tao Tong caught him.

To be honest, as a deputy Qianhu, he would definitely take orders from Qianhu, but he wanted to see if he really worked for Tao Tong.

See if Tao Tong is worthy of his sincere follow.

Because of Zhou Shu's incident, he had already given Tao Tong 3 taels of silver, and judging from Tao Tong's point of view, this was far from enough.

The Wei family scolded Tao Tong's eighteen generations of ancestors in their hearts.

Scolding Tao Tong for being too greedy, such a person has only so little ability.

Threatening his subordinates through excuses, even if he surrenders to him and works for him, how can he be sincere?
I have accepted a little benefit from Zhou Shu, that is, I was invited by some local gentry to have a drink just after taking office, and I met Zhou Shu at the banquet.

In fact, it can't be said that they knew each other. The gentry at the banquet all gave themselves gifts.

These are not only martial arts guards, even local officials will accept banquets from local gentry when they take office.

After all, governing one side requires the cooperation of these gentry, and it is an unwritten rule for everyone to give each other face.

Zhou Shu gave him 1000 taels, which impressed him a little.

Because most of them are 100 taels, hundreds of taels, and only a few of 1000 taels, he can remember.

For the 1000 taels, he had already lost 3 taels, but Tao Tong was not satisfied.

If he really wanted to do this, he could only bow his head to Tao Tong.

In this way, his prestige in the Qianhu Office will disappear, and his deputy Qianhu will almost be reduced to a decoration.

Think about that Fang Jing, he is at least directly in charge of Baishui and Qingshan Counties Hundred Household Offices, what about himself?

Sitting in the Qianhu House, he became Tao Tong's follower.

Unexpectedly, Tao Tong was killed at this time.

When he got the news, he was shocked at first, and he had a lot of responsibility.

But after thinking about it, once Tao Tong died, no one would gossip about Zhou Shu.

I just collected 1000 taels from Zhou Shu, so what is that?
Thinking about it this way, the Wei family felt a lot more at ease.

For Tao Tong's matter, the higher-ups must punish him, but Wei Jiading doesn't care about these punishments.

These are nothing compared to being threatened by Tao Tong.

"Master Fang, you're finally here. It's a mess now. Why do you think Master Tao is just~~~" Seeing Fang Jing approaching, Wei Jiading withdrew his thoughts, and immediately got up to greet him.

"Those goddamned pirates will die a terrible death." Fang Jingyi was filled with indignation, "I rushed here as soon as I got the news, Lord Wei, are there any whereabouts of those pirates?"

"Escaped." Wei Jiading shook his head and sighed, "I sent people to follow the traces they left, and finally the traces disappeared at the seaside, and they went out to sea."

"It's out to sea, so it's basically impossible to catch it." Fang Jing frowned.

"Yes, we need to have an explanation for this matter, Mr. Fang, let's discuss it?" Wei Jiading said.

"Let's tell the truth." Fang Jing said without hesitation, "Master Wei, this matter cannot be hidden. I am willing to share the responsibility for this matter with Master Wei."

Hearing Fang Jing's words, the Wei family was stunned for a moment, and then said a little excitedly: "Master Fang, speaking of which, this matter has little to do with you, I was careless, and I failed to discover the pirates sneaking into the city in time."

"Let's not talk about these, you and I are colleagues, Master Tao has such a misfortune, and I, the Deputy Qianhu, can hardly escape the blame." Fang Jing shook his head.

"Then I should report the truth?" Wei Jiading calmed down and said.

"Could it be possible to dismiss us all?" Fang Jing said.
