Chapter 218: Asking the provincial governor for a debt (1)

“That’s a good idea. I can consider it. Tell GE Ziyun to ask around with the battle Fox clan to see if there are any iron mines on the island. ” Tang Wen nodded. “Understood, I’ll do it immediately.” Luo Yiwu nodded and said. At noon the next day, Tang Wen and his group finally arrived at the Mei mansion in Jiang state capital. However, as soon as they entered the Mei residence, they were all dumbfounded. “What are Chaosheng and the others doing? There are talismans pasted everywhere. ” Luo Yiwu muttered. “Could it be ghost – catching?” Hero Yu said. “Alright, let’s eat first.” Tang Wen waved his hand. That was because the group of men who had come with him were all nervous and decided to change the topic first. After all, the people of Chu were all ancient people and believed in the legends of ghosts and gods. “Did you catch the ghost?” After lunch, he washed up in a hurry and took a nap. When he got up, he called Luo Chaosheng over for questioning. “Not yet, but I still appear occasionally. Everyone’s very nervous and panicking. If we don’t think of something soon, I’m afraid they’ll go crazy from fear. ” The Tang Army said. “Yes, a few of the guards are a little incoherent and mumbling. I’m afraid they won’t be able to take it and will scare people to death. ” Luo Chaosheng nodded. “This is really strange. Are there really ghosts?” Tang Wen muttered, but he felt a little scared. “Why don’t we invite a Daoist to come and catch ghosts?” Luo Chaosheng said. “There’s no need to invite anyone, no one would dare to come. The Dong family had invited a few in the previous term, and they were scared out of their wits when they heard that there was a Daoist priest. After that, no one dared to perform the ritual anymore. ” The Tang Army shook his head. “It’s a coincidence. Don’t worry. I’ll stay here for a while this time. I’ll definitely solve the problem of the ghost. If it really doesn’t work, I’ll just move away.” Tang Wen said. From the corner of his eyes, he saw that both Tang Jun and Luo Chaosheng were relieved. They must have been scared out of their wits. “Master, we were tricked by Mr. Qin.” Luo Yiwu said indignantly. “There are a few good people in the Yamen. I only made a deal with Qin Botong. He is using me, and I also want to use his power.” Tang Wen said in a bad mood. “Master, I don’t know what’s wrong with Shen Xihe from the bountiful treasures store in the provincial capital. We contacted him about the delivery, but he actually ignored us.” The Tang Army said. “Could it be that they’re not sold out yet?” Tang Wen asked. “That can’t be. They didn’t come again after the last batch of goods. They should have been sold out long ago.” Luo Yiwu said. “I don’t care about him, if he doesn’t want it, then forget it. If we open our own supermarket, we won’t give it to him if he wants it. ” Tang Wen snorted. “Could it be related to the Linghai Academy?” The Tang Army said. What’s Shen Xihe’s relationship with the Linghai Academy?” Luo Yiwu shook his head. “Last time, when we peeped at their elders Association, didn’t that Grand Elder cui Tingjiang say that he was going to ruin our business? he even said that he was going to attack the brothers and sisters of the master. Did they find out that Shen Xihe had business dealings with us? Therefore, Shen Xihe was so scared that he didn’t dare to do business with us. ” Tang Wen said. “That makes sense. It’s possible.” Luo Yiwu said after thinking for a while. “He touched my brother and sister? didn’t he touch Tang Hao?” Tang Wen sneered. “This is bad. Master, miss, miss is in the provincial capital. You said you wanted to see her the last time, but you were held back. Will they do something to miss?” Luo Yiwu’s expression suddenly changed drastically as he said. “It can’t be. The young miss knows that the master’s family has moved to somi Island. If something happens, she will definitely write to inform the master.” The Tang Army said. “No matter what, Tang Army, go to my sister’s house and ask.” Tang Wen said. The Tang Army nodded and left in a hurry. “Right, Chaosheng, have you contacted Li Zitong yet?” Tang Wen asked after the Tang Army left. “I did, but he didn’t want to see me. Later on, I asked around and found out that something had happened. It seemed that his father had a conflict with the elders. The elder Council doesn’t even allow him to hold a meeting. ” Luo Chaosheng said. “Yi Wu, arrange for someone to contact Xiao Gai and his gang. I’ll treat them to dinner at the Mei residence tonight.” Tang Wen said. Tang Wen, accompanied by Luo Yiwu, went straight to the provincial capital’s Yamen. The provincial governor’s office still owed him one million taels of silver for the one thousand tents previously. He had to go and get it back. After the guard informed them to go in, Tang Wen entered the Yamen. “Brother, have a seat.” Jiang Xuan saw Tang Wen and warmly invited him to sit down. “Lord Jiang, there has been a lot of fighting in the East recently. You should be very busy.” Tang Wen said with a smile. He took a sip of tea after sitting down. “I’m busy, but there’s something I’m sorry about,” Jiang Xuan said helplessly. “Brother Jiang, are you referring to the silver from the provincial governor’s office?” Tang Wen asked. “These dogs, they asked me to buy a tent from you. In the end, he only gave half of the money and refused to give the other half. I had a fight with them yesterday, and it was so F * cking infuriating. I wanted to bring my troops and raid their Yamen. ” Jiang Xuan said in anger. “Why not? We have signed a contract official document, and the contract is even stamped with the chief administrator’s Yamen seal. ” Tang Wen said. “Isn’t that so? I’m also a witness. I’m still free now. Why don’t we go together? If they don’t pay, I’ll teach them a lesson. ” Jiang Xuan said. In the great Chu dynasty, there was the Imperial Guard Division, the military Yamen, and the Navy Yamen in Linghai province. The provincial governor’s office was in charge of the military governor’s office, but the military chief’s office could not. It was a seemingly independent military organization directly under the court. In fact, it was different from the six Fan School. The six Fan School was in charge of Jianghu Affairs, major cases, and led the constables in the country. The purpose of great Chu’s capital guard division was to contain the military Yamen and not let them monopolize the power. The direct superior of the capital guard division in Linghai province was the governor’s office of sea Saint City. There were only a few Governor-General’s offices in the country, and the power of the Governor-General’s Office was similar to that of the governor. Moreover, in terms of rank, Jiang Xuan was only a third – ranked commander. The ranks of the chief military inspector and chief governor were higher than his. In terms of power, you’re not even comparable to the military governor in other people’s territory. To put it bluntly, he felt a little aggrieved being stuck in the middle. That was because he had the governor of the various major mansions as his direct superior, and the provincial inspector – generals as his subordinate. It was similar to the current schools. The town leaders could also control you, and the education Bureau was your immediate superior. “Alright, thank you for your trouble, Lord Jiang.” Tang Wen cupped his hands and said. “No need to be so polite with me, just call me brother Jiang, don’t be so formal, don’t be so formal.” Jiang Xuan said with a smile. “You’re welcome. I have to call you Lord Jiang in formal occasions. I can’t be impolite. In private, you’re my brother.” Tang Wen said with a smile. “Yes, Lord Tang.” Jiang Xuan said with a smile. The two of them went straight to the Office of the Chief Secretary because the money had to be taken from their pockets. “Brother, the chief office of Linghai is called ‘Wan Hansong’. He’s a capable man with courage. Furthermore, he’s actually from the martial roll. Back then, he was the martial arts champion of our dynasty, and his skills were much higher than mine. When you see him later, you have to restrain yourself and not rashly get into a conflict with him. ” Jiang Xuan said in the carriage. “Martial arts scholar? then he should be at least rank -2 now, right?” Tang Wen asked. “More or less. In terms of martial arts, he’s definitely the best in Linghai. He’s on par with Qiu Zhaohai, the Chief of the Army, and Luo Ping ‘an, the hall Master of six fan Hall.” Jiang Xuan said with a bitter smile. “Luo Ping ‘an also has second – grade skills?” Tang Wen, on the other hand, was stunned. He had originally thought that the guy was at most rank -3. “Of course. Who would be convinced by you if you’re not a rank -2? I’m afraid that the hall master’s chair will be knocked down before he can even sit down. For example, the military gate and the other government offices were better off. The six Fan School is different. It’s a school, and you can beat everything with your fists. ” Jiang Xuan said.
