As Han Xiufeng and Han Chen expected, Zhang Shiheng ran in shortly after he went out and said that two Huizhou people were looking for a meeting.

"I've wanted to see me?"

"yes."

"Have they met Li Xiucai?" Han Xiufeng asked with a frown.

Zhang Shiheng said carefully: "I saw it, and they were all outside. However, the two Huizhou people didn't seem to like Li Xiucai and were unwilling to talk to Li Xiucai."

Han Xiufeng thought about it and asked again: "Where are those families of Mr. Zhang's second son?"

"The second young master Zhang's family didn't say anything, and Li Xiucai didn't introduce them to the two Huizhou people."

Han Xiufeng had already made up his mind to put aside his relationship, so how could he be pulled into the water in a daze? He looked up and said, "I don't see you, just say that Xu Lequn is a criminal who was taken by the State Yakuza. He is just temporarily locked up in our inspection office and will be taken to Taizhou. Xu Lequn's two subordinates who were captured in Zhongjiazhuang are the same. This case has nothing to do with me. Whether they want to visit the prison or do something else, they will all go to the State Yakuza."

"Okay, I'll go out and tell them."

As soon as Zhang Shiheng left, Han Chen pondered: "Zhixing, what is the trouble of the Bao family?"

"God knows what they are thinking, but I'm just keeping up with everything."

"That's right, let them go."

The two looked at each other and laughed, then chatted about people and things in their hometown while drinking tea.

However, the township was not very happy. As soon as they talked about Ren He, Pan Ermao Dean Gu, Wang Jiansheng, Yu Jiansheng, Liu Laocai and other gentry were invited. They learned that the person who was having tea with Han Xiufeng was actually the ambassador of the Salt Class in the Jiaoxiuchang, and hurried forward to salute and say hello.

"Everyone, Mr. Han is an official in the noble place, and he is a fellow countryman of Mr. Han. He is all his family, and there is no need to be too polite or too polite!" President Gu is not only a serious scholar in the gentry, but also the leader of the gentry in Hai'an. Han Chen naturally has to treat him with courtesy.

In Dean Gu's opinion, Ambassador of the Salt Class is no different from the prefecture and county hall, but in fact it is no different. Seeing Han Chen so polite, he was really flattered. He bowed and bowed before he sat down, and only sat half his butt.

"Director Gu, it's better to come sooner than you are. Ambassador Han not only brought fresh seafood from the corner, but also brought a few jars of good wine. Wang Qianbu worked all morning and calculated that the time should be ready. No one is allowed to leave later. Let's try seafood together and accompany Ambassador Han to have a drunken meal."

"Master Han, why are you so embarrassed? Ambassador Han is here in Hai'an. We should have served as a drink to welcome the Korean ambassador!"

"Everyone who serves wine is the same. Didn't Ambassador Han just said that it's all his own family."

The more I thought about it, the more embarrassed he felt, and sighed: "Master Han, when it comes to seafood, you just sent someone to give us so many. There are clams, small yellow croaker, big yellow croaker, hairtail, and big shrimps with slap! Logically speaking, it should be that we respect you, so how can you give us something!"

"Yes, Mr. Han, we are so flattered, so we feel sorry for it!"

"It's just a little seafood. What's the point of being flattered? I'm ashamed of it." Han Xiufeng laughed and then talked about the serious business.

After hearing this, Dean Gu sighed sincerely: "Rent the seized boats to those thugs, so that the thugs can make a living, so that they will not cause trouble again. As the saying goes, it is better to teach them fish than to give them fish. Mr. Han, this is a great thing! Not only those thugs will be grateful, but the local people should also thank you!"

"Director Gu, I don't need them to be grateful, as long as they can reform themselves." Han Xiufeng smiled, and then changed his subject: "But running boats is not as good as farming, especially in our area, I am worried that their country is easy to change and their nature is difficult to change. If they are really obsessed with private salt, they are lucky to be not caught. If they are caught by others, it will be useless to have my kindness."

Han Chen took the opportunity to take over the conversation and smiled at everyone and said, "In my opinion, we must not only pay equal attention to those ruffians, but also educate them. You are all local gentry and respectful. You cannot listen to other people's words, but you still have to listen to those ruffians."

Wang Jiansheng subconsciously asked: "Tell them the sages?"

"Of course, I want to tell you the sage, but I plan to ask you to use your feelings and reason to teach them how to be a human being, and I also want to ask you to take the lead in the management of renting a boat. When you receive the rent in the future, half of it will be reserved for the yamen, and the other half can be used to build a Puji Hall to help local widows, widows, orphans, abandoned babies and poor children."

"Master Han Gao Yi, Master Han Gao Yi, let Gu worship on behalf of the local people!"

"Director Gu, what are you doing?" Han Xiufeng grabbed his arm and said seriously and sincerely: "As an official, he will benefit the people, these are all things Xiufeng's duties. I don't ask the local elders to praise Xiufeng as a good official, but I just ask the local elders not to scold Xiufeng as a cruel official who cares about human life."

"Master Han, what are you saying? You are honest and honest, and love the people as your son. If anyone dares to say that you are a cruel official, I, Wang Liuling, will not agree!"

"Yes, justice is in the hearts of the people." Yu Jiansheng became more and more excited as he spoke, and even stood up and said, "Master Han, I dare not say anything else, but on the day you are promoted, several umbrellas of the people will definitely be indispensable!"

"Brother Yu, what are you saying? We finally hope that Mr. Han can come to a good official like Mr. Han. How can we let Mr. Han leave? How can we let Mr. Han leave?"

"Yes, yes, look at my mouth and said the wrong thing again."

Han Chen never thought that the fellow villager around him had won the support of local gentry less than a month after taking office. He was secretly sighing. President Gu suddenly said, "Master Han, even if you don't let the little brother Changsheng call me waiting, I will still come to the yamen to ask for a meeting today. After returning yesterday, I went to the surrounding market villages and asked them separately, and asked my family to ask them. I just summarized them in front of the yamen and found that there were 19 yamen who were suitable for the invitation of the yamen in the past two years, including 18 yamen. Among them, 6 were alive and 12 were deceased."

If this matter is done, the families of those tycoon women and sage women will be grateful. They will be grateful to the inspector who helped invite Jing, and also to the gentry who took care of this matter. The inspector will leave sooner or later, and this favor will be the gentry in the end, so President Gu and other gentry are particularly concerned about this matter, and those who are doing the New Year are helping to take care of it.

Han Xiufeng thought to himself that this favor was originally given to you, and said without hesitation: "Then prepare the documents quickly. After you are ready, I will go to Taizhou in person."

"I'm preparing, and I'll be ready before the yamen is opened." President Gu looked back at Wang Jiansheng and others, and said with a look of embarrassment: "Mr. Han, there is actually something else, I'm embarrassed to talk to you."

"What's the matter, but it's okay."

"I went to Jijiazhuang last night to invite the third girl of Jijia. As a result, the people of Jijiazhuang heard that the thief who raped Jijia Sanya had been captured by you, so they planned to come to the yamen to petition, and wanted to ask you to make the decision for the third girl."

"If they don't come, I will make the decision to make the three girls of Ji's family, and I will also give the three girls of Ji's family justice in the sky."

"Master Han, the country people have no knowledge. They... They are worried that Xun Liu will find someone to convict after being escorted to Taizhou. They are worried that Xun Liu will get out of the silver after he arrives in Taizhou. They want to ask you not to send Xun Liu to Taizhou. They want to ask you to deal with Xun Liu's killer in Hai'an Law."

Han Xiufeng didn't expect that the Ji family would ask President Gu to ask for this love, and said helplessly: "Everyone, it's better to go home to sell sweet potatoes if you are an official and not to make decisions for the people. Xiufeng wants to cut Xun Liu's head like you, but criminals like Xun Liu must follow the court's regulations. Not to mention that I, a ninth-rank inspector, cannot decide Xun Liu's life and death. Even if the Taiwan Master wants to cut Xun Liu's head, he must submit it to the Ministry of Justice for review. After the review, it must be reviewed by the Three Laws and then reported to the emperor. Only when the emperor resigns and decrees can he be executed."

"I told them the same way, but... but they couldn't listen."

"Master Han, I don't know whether I should say it or not." Wang Jiansheng asked suddenly.

"Brother Wang, there is no outsider, so there is nothing I can't talk about."

"Master Han, you asked those rascals to investigate and smuggle salt. We know that you are a Bodhisattva's heart and want to give those rascals helplessly a chance to atone for their sins, but some people still don't know, such as Chen Youdao, who will definitely gossip behind their backs. If one passes through ten or ten passes through hundreds of people, it will really ruin your reputation."

Wang Jiansheng paused and then said, "If all the elders of all the villages know that you are not only asking those thugs to help the officials investigate and smuggle salt, but also to eradicate the bandits who harm our Hai'an people, to preside over the justice of the Ji family and to avenge the three girls of the Ji family, then who dares to chew your tongue behind your back, and who dares to suspect that Mr. Han, you have selfish intentions?"

I have to admit that Wang Jiansheng’s words make some sense.

Ordinary people are timid and afraid of things, and they are always stubborn when they are not related to their own affairs, but if they are involved, they are another matter. In other words, those people will have some ideas and even gossip behind their backs because of the investigation and anti-smuggling salt. But if they die because they are fair, they will die, not to mention that those who die are not good people.

But killing criminals without authorization is not a trivial matter. Only the emperor in the world has the power of life and death. Whoever dares to do this will not only lose his official position or even be imprisoned.

Han Xiufeng didn't want to lose his official position, nor did he want to go to jail, but he didn't want to miss this opportunity to help him "reform". He touched his chin and weighed it for a while, and looked up and said, "Everyone, Xiufeng, as a court official, must not know the law and break the law. But you can ask Changsheng to ask Master Zhang Er to see if he can not take Xun Liu to Taizhou for the time being."

Dean Gu thought that if this matter was done, his prestige would be higher, so he asked anxiously: "What?"
