My harem is a bit big

The latter looked carefully, and his attitude instantly became more respectful:

"Excuse me, sir."

Zhou Zian grinned bitterly, looking very embarrassed:

"The county magistrate disappeared this morning. I searched hard at the county government office and went to the surrounding markets to inquire, but I couldn't get any relevant clues. It was like...suddenly disappearing from the world. How can you be of use? My place, just ask.”

Under normal circumstances, the imperial minister should first find the city lord.

But the city lord of Wanguo City is a special case.

He was afraid that if the foreigners attacked the Xia Dynasty, he would be the first to attack him.

So he invested money to hide in other cities and never came back all year round.

Leave a few confidants to take care of local industries.

All other official duties were left to the county government.

Since the city lord was a relative of the empress dowager, the little emperor turned a blind eye to this.

He only sent people back to collect the money every year.

"Okay, now how many people can you allocate for my use?"

Investigations related to the railway need to go to the south of the city.

According to the intelligence obtained yesterday, it is difficult for civilians to enter.

There are many concerns when using official channels.

If it is an unofficial channel, you may need to contact the hot pot restaurant owner Chen Duoyu.

Using his identity as a delivery boy, he fucks her deeply.

As for the Red Flower Society, it is a suspected uprising organization against the imperial court.

Chen Yufan was wandering around the city last night and did not find the red flower mark.

One person's capabilities are limited and locals may be required to assist in the search.

Zhou Zian looked a little embarrassed when he heard this:

"Sir, I can find more than ten agents for you at the moment. If it's not enough, I'll think of another way."

Chen Yufan frowned slightly, not satisfied with the quantity.

Seeing the embarrassment on Master's face, he did not want to be embarrassed and ordered:

"As many as you call, come and look for me at the inn on West Street at noon."

Zhou Zian was sweating coldly. Seeing that the other party was not angry, he cupped his fists and responded:

"Yes, this subordinate will do it!"

……

103 Double Chen Meeting

Chen Yufan didn't say much and returned to the inn on West Street.

The commercial center here is no longer what it used to be.

Major families competed for investment, creating a prosperous scene.

When they first settled in, they signed a commercial treaty drawn up by Chen Duoyu.

There cannot be more than two stores of the same type.

If there are two houses, they must be bounded by the central Chunfeng Building.

The store locations are arranged on the left and right, each covering an area.

The owners of the two stores need to personally come forward to negotiate.

The market pricing is unified and cannot be changed without authorization.

This can effectively avoid vicious competition and industry involution.

The first time Chen Duoyu noticed signs of involution was with the Buyi Gang.

They go to great lengths for the position of delivery boy.

It was agreed at the beginning that Chen Duoyu would only receive [-] to [-]% of the advertising fee.

It's not that he lacks the money, it's just a courtesy.

As a result, the Buyi Gang members were willing to reduce their commissions.

Use more money to honor Chen Duoyu.

This makes other groups that want to get involved in the delivery business unable to do so.

Closer to home.

Chen Yufan once asked the waiter in the store to inquire about it, but unfortunately found nothing.

Most people don't know about building railways.

Regarding the Red Flower Club, I don’t know anything about it.

At noon, he was eating noodles in the hotel lobby.

Detective Li Di came to the door with a group of men and looked around.

When Chen Yufan saw this, he quickly turned into a storm.

He wiped his mouth and walked towards the detectives:

"Let's go, let's chat in another place."

Li Di was startled at first, then raised his head to look at the other person.

After confirming that his appearance and clothing were consistent with the master's description, he cupped his fists and said:

"My dear Li Di, I'm willing to do the hard work of a dog and a horse."

Chen Yufan walked towards West Second Street with his hands behind his back.

The police officer couldn't help with the railway matter, so he automatically omitted:

"There is an organization called the Red Flower Club in the city recently. Have you heard of it?"

"My lord, my subordinates don't know."

"The Red Flower Club's stronghold should not be in the central city, nor in the south of the city. You can look for it elsewhere first. If you find anything, don't alert the enemy, and come back quickly to report it."

The information Chen Yufan has is scarce and he cannot give a more detailed introduction.

Seeing that he didn't add anything, Li Di bit the bullet and agreed:

"Yes, I will do my best!"

Master Zhou Zian already knew Chen Yufan's identity as an imperial envoy.

However, others don't know.

According to his official rank, he certainly has the power to recruit police officers from all over the city.

But in this way, the identity cannot be hidden:

"Go ahead. When the sun sets, no matter if you have any clues or not, come to the inn and report."

"Yes, my lord!"

More than ten detectives were divided into three teams and searched the west, east and north of the city respectively.

……

The search for Magistrate Zhou is still ongoing.

The police officers of Wanguo City were out in full force.

Such a big battle was well known to everyone.

Whether it's an old well, a backyard, or a pond.

They didn't leave any place where they could hide people.

Even so, Magistrate Zhou could not be found.

It was as if he had evaporated overnight.

Live without people, dead without corpses.

It's six o'clock in the afternoon, which is three quarters of the hour.

Li Di and others returned to the inn to resume their duties.

It took two or three hours, but nothing was gained.

Chen Yufan was very dissatisfied with this result.

He suppressed his anger and did not explode on the spot:

"You stay, the others can go back."

"Yes, my lord!"

Li Di felt uneasy when his name was called.

He grinned bitterly and asked tentatively:

"Sir, I wonder... what are your orders?"

"Come with me."

Chen Yufan said nothing and walked into the newly opened Yunan hotpot restaurant.

This useless agent is just a decoration.

If you stay around, you won't have to explain your identity.

He walked to the counter and knocked on the table:

"I have something to talk to your boss about, please let me know."
