Chapter 152 Counterattack
"Your Majesty, what do you mean by this?" The smile on Fu Changfeng's face disappeared and he stared straight at the eldest young master of the Long family.

"Haha, don't you understand what this means? This is a gift from our Long family to congratulate you on becoming the county magistrate of Shaoming County."

"My official position was granted by the imperial court, so there's no need for it. If you take it back yourself, I won't hold you accountable for giving gifts. If you don't take it back, I will punish Chief Long as a crime of disrespect. "Seeing their behavior, Fu Changfeng looked down on the Long family even more.

"Sir, do you really want to reject the kindness of my Long family?"

"As the local parent official, can't I refuse all the affairs of the Long family? If you don't take it back quickly, then don't blame me for being rude."

"Humph, then I wish you a good life." When the eldest young master of the Long family left, he turned back and saw Fu Changfeng walking away after saying these words.

"Sir, the Long family is so arrogant. They are now threatening you." Zhao Yuping shook his head after they left, feeling a little disdainful of the Fu family's behavior.

"I want to see what other methods they have, so feel free to use them."

Xichun also heard about what happened in the Yamen in the backyard. She found Tao Zi and gave Tao Zi a few words.

"Sister Xichun, don't worry, I'll take care of it right away. I've never seen such an arrogant person. Relying on his family's local power, he even dares to bully the county magistrate. We have to vent our anger."

The fabrics and clothes shipped this time have begun to be neatly arranged. They used Taozi's name to buy several empty shops in Shaoming County. Fortunately, the Long family is not big enough to buy the entire county shop, so they He took advantage of the opportunity and bought shops on every street. This time he wanted to fight the Long family.

When Long Shijin heard his eldest son's reply, his face immediately turned ugly. This county magistrate was offering a toast instead of eating a fine drink. If he dared to refuse the Long family like this today, he didn't know what he would ask for in the future.

"Dad, could it be because we delivered it openly and he deliberately put on airs and didn't dare to accept it? Why don't we wait until night and send someone to quietly deliver it to his home?" Long Shijin's second son suggested.

"Humph, there's no need to go to such trouble. Isn't he disobedient? Then let's make more trouble for him. We must let him leave voluntarily, or stay here forever and never get out. You have found out about his life experience. ?"

"Dad, I have already found out that the county magistrate is just the son of a wealthy family in a county below Guangming Mansion in Jiannan Road. The eldest sister-in-law of the family is the daughter of the county magistrate in their county. The others have no official connections. , I don’t see anything to be afraid of.”

"If this is the case, then there is no need to worry about their family connections. They are from an ordinary merchant family. No wonder they were assigned to us. If they were really connected, they would have found an official position in one of the good places in Jiangnan Road." Long Shi. When Jin heard this, he already had an idea in his mind.

Within a few days, Fu Changfeng and others found out that the Long family had begun to train the thugs below, and also organized the tenant farmers, who seemed to be taking some action.

"Sir, the Long family is definitely here for you this time. You have to think of a way. If you are really framed by them, I'm afraid you won't even be able to keep your official position." Li Cheng had seen their methods before. The county magistrate was punished like this, and later he turned a blind eye to the Long family's affairs.

"Don't worry, we have to be prepared. When the soldiers come, we will cover up the water and the earth. I have my own way to deal with it."

"Sir, I think they are trying to trick the people into resisting on purpose, and they want to deliberately slander you and oppress the people. Then everyone will be talking about it, and your excuses will be useless. We must be more careful." Fu Changfeng has already contacted him privately. He had informed the magistrate and had ordered the soldiers stationed nearby to obey Fu Changfeng's orders, so he was not worried about such a situation at the moment.

Over at Xichun, Taozi has prepared all the matters. Today, he beat gongs and drums and directly announced the opening in public.

The shopkeepers of the Long family have seen the shop next door quietly renovating and covering up everything in the past few days. They couldn't find it even if they wanted to check privately. Now that it is open, everyone is holding their hands. , I want to see what this foreigner is up to.

"The cloth store is open, new models are in stock, buy today, it's cheap and affordable!" As the gongs and drums stopped, someone shouted loudly. This voice directly attracted the attention of people shopping on the street.

"How come a cloth shop is opened here, and it's next to the Long family? It's so brave. The boss doesn't look like someone like us. Why is he so brave?" Someone whispered, wanting to watch the excitement at the door. But no one went in.

"Everyone can take a look. There are fashionable styles in the capital. They are available for all men, women, old and young. Today's sales are three cents cheaper. Come in and take a look." Seeing these people, he didn't dare to enter the store, and the shopkeeper didn't dare either. Worried, I directly ordered the clerk to take out some fabric styles and put them on a shelf outside for others to see.

"The grain store is open and the prices are affordable. Come and see, come and buy. If you can't buy it, you'll suffer a loss. If you can't buy it, you can't be cheated. Don't miss it when you pass by!"

At this time, a grain store also appeared on another street. People felt interesting when they heard the novel slogan. They were even more excited when they heard the price quoted by the waiter next to them. Taking advantage of the fact that the shopkeeper of the Long family was not here, They also quietly went in to check.

"These grains should have been harvested last year, and have not been stored for several years. Look at the quality. I think it is better than the Long family's. I heard that the Long family sells old grain."

"That's right, why don't we buy some here and leave from the backyard without anyone seeing us."

"We sell oil, fresh clear oil, soybean oil, peanut oil, keep it and eat it home, it will taste delicious."

A series of opening sounds attracted everyone's attention. By the time the Long family heard about this scene, the newly opened shops had already sold a lot of things.

"Damn it, where did these shops come from? How come no one reported them before?" After Long Shijin heard that his family's business had been robbed, he couldn't help but pat the table.

"Dad, those shopkeepers said they didn't pay attention before, but they didn't expect that these shops would suddenly open. They originally thought that these shops would be like those opened by other people in the past. They would be run out of money soon, and our business would be over again. It was all over the county, so I didn’t pay much attention to it.

I have just ordered people to check and find out that the shopkeepers of those shops are not locals, they are all from other places, and I can't find out who their owners are. I only know that the owner of the land deed is a person named Zhang Rentao. "

"Zhang Rentao? Who is this person? He dares to come to Shaoming County to challenge me. I think he doesn't want to live anymore?" There was a dangerous look in Long Shijin's eyes.

"Dad, do you want to find this Ren Tao, and then..." Young Master Long made a gesture of wiping his neck.
