Chapter 110 Useless bastard (5)

No matter how they asked those guys with pale faces who were frozen, Li Changshou's men couldn't tell who the person attacked them. They tossed and turned and could only tell that they were suddenly restrained by someone who had come out from somewhere, had something blocked in their mouths, and had a sack on their heads. They tied ropes and took them away.

Li Changshou listened to his subordinates' narration and looked at his fearful and confused expression, and felt a strong sense of anxiety in his heart. Without special consideration, Li Changshou firmly believed that Huo Chong must be the one who took action. In Mouping County, there was no one except Huo Chong. Only Huo Chong dared to take action against Li Changshou.

"Huo Chong! I want to kill him!" Li Changshou shouted viciously. With such a vision, Li Changshou planned how to achieve his goal. The best way was naturally to sue the official, and the government could not turn over. Thinking of the face of County Magistrate Dong, Li Changshou bit his lip and ordered his subordinates to sue the official.

"Master, how should I write a lawsuit? Who should I sue?"

Hearing the question, Li Changshou asked his subordinates again if there was any content that could contact Huo Chong with the kidnapper. The subordinates were frozen for a long time and fainted from the middle of the night, and could not say anything at all. Li Changshou made up his mind and shouted: "It must be Huo Chong's instructor, so there is no need to say anything. Just sue Huo Chong for the murder!"

Magistrate Dong received the complaint on the same day. As a magistrate, he had to take on the affairs of a county, from taxation to justice, maintaining local order, and organizing local examinations. Of course, the kidnapping case belongs to the magistrate's rights and responsibilities.

When Magistrate Dong saw the conflict between Huo Chong and Li Changshou and Li Juren reached such a point, Magistrate Dong was very happy. Whether it was Huo Chong or Li Changshou, the struggle between the two was a dog-biting dog in the eyes of Magistrate Dong. No matter who wins, as long as the process is intense and the losses are large enough, it is a good thing.

With this mood, County Magistrate Dong wanted to let the person who handed the paper out of the book to get out of here. Although the magistrate is Bailihou, he has great power in the local area. This does not mean that the magistrate can really kill people and set fires in the local area. According to the paper, all kinds of speculations were made. The blame was directly put on Huo Chong.

In a situation where there is no evidence at all, unless the magistrate arranges someone like Li Changshou to sue the official in advance, it is impossible to arrest people for such a case. If this case is established, it would be possible to replace Huo Chong's name on the case with anyone. It is not the turn of Muping County to be the master of the family.

"Boss, why not call everyone from both sides to ask?" The master stopped County Magistrate Dong's actions.

“Why?”

"Didn't the magistrate always want Li Changshou to come?" the master reminded.

County Magistrate Dong had already understood that he had been fooled by Li Changshou and others before, and at least he understood that Li Changshou had no strength to fulfill the promises he had said. Now those juren began to use business to make money as a cheap business. They didn't say that before. Those people almost swear that they could earn money no less than Huo Chong's property and pay taxes to the county.

"Well. Go and tell the person who came to hand over the paper. Let Li Changshou come to see me."

County Magistrate Dong thought that Li Changshou would come at least, but he didn't expect that he had not seen anyone after waiting for two days, and he even despised Li Changshou's character. Since Li Changshou did not come, County Magistrate Dong wanted Huo Chong to come. However, he felt that there was no reason and seemed a little timid. For a moment, County Magistrate Dong was in a dilemma.

Huo Chong was entertaining guests at this time. This guest was recommended by Master Changxin. The meaning of Master Changxin was to resolve the conflict between Huo Chong and Li Daoqiong. This brother, who looked forty years old, called himself Li Chengliang, and looked like he was eating at sea. His dark skin had begun to lose his luster.

Both sides made some polite words first, and Li Chengliang went straight to the point, "When Master Changxin spoke, I asked Master Huo how he wanted to deal with Li Daoqiong."

"It's Li Daoqiong who wants to deal with me. I just want him to stop messing around."

After hearing Huo Chong's words, Li Chengliang looked at Huo Chong a few times and chuckled, "Hehe, Mr. Huo's reputation has been so famous in recent years. I don't believe Mr. Huo just wants to calm down. If Mr. Huo doesn't say what he said in his heart, I can only go back and tell Master Changxin that I'm here."

Huo Chong thought Li Chengliang was very interesting, and it seemed that he was completely prepared. Since that was the case, Huo Chong decided to test Li Chengliang's idea, "Mr. Li, a brother said that Li Daoqiong just thought I wanted to be his master. Let me say what I meant, but he was so kind, I still looked down on him. If there weren't a few juren behind Li Daoqiong who wanted to be my enemy, I wouldn't have to be so troublesome. Since Master Changxin sent Master Li, I would like to ask Master Li what he thought Li Daoqiong would do."

"Master Huo forced Li Daoqiong to this point..."

"Stop it. Mr. Li, I didn't force Li Daoqiong."

Li Chengliang showed a sarcastic look, "Mr. Huo, you made so much money after you arrived in Mouping County, but you didn't let Li Daoqiong split it up. You hit Li Daoqiong again and beat Li Daoqiong's people. Mr. Huo felt that this was nothing, but where did Li Daoqiong's face be put? If you don't find this scene, who else would listen to Li Daoqiong?"

After hearing this statement, Li Daoqiong had a great intention of ending his journey, and Huo Chong was a little surprised. After all, Huo Chong had never been in the underworld, and even the darkest part had just taken some gray route. Just as he was wondering whether Li Chengliang had exaggerated the facts, Li Chengliang continued to say: "Master Huo, I have inquired about it. Li Daoqiong's three groups of people. The ones who really had the same heart as Li Daoqiong were Zhang San Ge and Li Si Ge. One group was the second in command, and the other group was Wang Hu. He entrusted Mr. Huo's blessing, but these two groups had not received any money for a long time. Now I'm in a hurry."

Huo Chong heard this as if Li Daoqiong had reached the end of his journey. Why did he mean that everyone was betrayal of his relatives and his subordinates were about to jump off the ship? He hesitated and doubted Li Chengliang's position. After this change of thinking, Huo Chong suddenly remembered, how could Li Chengliang be so clear?

"Since it is Mr. Li invited by Master Changxin, I asked directly. What exactly does Mr. Li want?" After Huo Chong asked, he felt a little uneasy. People in this era have a different place from New China. Huo Chong has seen many people who really believe in a beautiful society, especially those who really believe in a better society. Everyone has some heroic plots in the great era of China's rise.

In the Qing Dynasty, there was obviously no such healthy and upward thing, so Huo Chong had to gradually adjust himself and start with very realistic interests.

"Since Master Changxin can trust Master Huo, I will just say it. If Master Huo is willing to let me take over Li Daoqiong's position, I will let my brothers divide it into Mr. Huo's business in the future. I will help Master Huo handle Li Daoqiong."

After Li Chengliang finished speaking, he looked at Huo Chong with a burning look. Huo Chong could feel the heat in this guy's heart, and he also felt that his test had temporarily achieved results. Li Chengliang was just looking for a benefit, a simple benefit. Fortunately, Li Chengliang did not talk about any loyalty, otherwise he would be a typical representative of "the mouth is all politics and the heart is all business."
