048, husband and wife join hands, deceive

This incident made Wen Wan very uneasy. After all, it was the first time that she had dealt with Master Guan when she grew up.

The Song family's ancestors had several generations of poor peasants. Even though the situation improved after learning some skills from Mr. Song's generation, their family was just a commoner with no fame. How could they fight with officials?

Wen Wan raised her eyes to look at Song Wei, and saw that he was in deep thought, she did not dare to disturb him.

The two sat quietly in the room for a while before Song Wei spoke slowly, "Wanwan, I have a question to ask you."

Wenwan nodded and signaled to him.

Song Wei looked at her, "If I am about to encounter any danger and you can see it in advance, then on the other hand, is it because you can't have a premonition? It means I won't have any trouble?"

Wen Wan thought about it and nodded affirmatively.

In the past, she didn't dare to draw conclusions at will, but after the incident between her father-in-law and her father, she became more and more sure that her premonition could only be aware of bad things. If she didn't have a premonition, it means that it was okay.

"Are you sure?"

Wenwan still nodded, with a little firmer on her little face.

Song Wei nodded and said the countermeasures he thought.

After saying that, he looked at Wen Wan seriously, "If I do this, can you feel the danger foreshadow?"

this……

Wen Wan hesitated.

Her premonition cannot be controlled by humans, and sometimes it will appear a little bit before the upcoming event. For example, when she went to Dahuan Mountain that night, she walked along the way. Several times she had a premonition that he would accidentally fall off the cliff because it was too dark, so she kept asking to change the route.

But sometimes, the premonition is much earlier. For example, when she was almost sold to Wang Cuzi and the town master by her stepmother and Mrs. Wu, the premonitions both times appeared quite early, giving her enough time to prepare and deal with them.

If Song Wei really did what he planned, she would not have any bad premonition at the moment. But who can guarantee that the accident would not happen suddenly when he was about to take action?

So Wen Wan thought about it and felt that she could not let him act alone.

She asked her to accompany her at that time. If there is any bad thing in the end, she could find ways to avoid it in advance so that she would not suffer any losses.

Song Wei nodded, "Okay."

——

Song Wei often went to the county, and after a long time, he found out a lot of things.

There is a salt merchant Zhang who has just taken root in the county. If his family wants to grow its business in Pingjiang County, it is necessary to require the county’s parents to set up a ladder to relax and be more comfortable in policies.

County Magistrate Lu had set his sights on Mr. Zhang's house early on. After all, the salt business is big everywhere and the profits are considerable. Once he relaxes his family and makes his family rich, Mr. Zhang will have to give him a filial piety every year.

So one of the two men did not understand the nature of their parents' officials and did not dare to act casually for fear of causing fishyness. The other one waited for each other to send snowflakes to the door all day long. But before they could wait, the two of them were in a stalemate, and no one took that step.

Song Wei thought of a plan with this.

After choosing a good day, he took Wenwan directly to the county town and first visited Mr. Zhang, claiming that he was the distant cousin of County Magistrate Lu.

Mr. Zhang had heard of Song Wei, a famous talent in Pingjiang County, but he had a conflict with his luck and had never been able to take the imperial examination.

They often pay attention to the word "luck" when doing business, so just listening to the name "Song Wei", Mr. Zhang is not very happy to see others, for fear of bad luck.

But if Song Wei had a relative relationship with the Magistrate Lu County, it would be a different matter. He immediately sent someone to invite the couple in respectfully and serve them with good tea and water.

Not long after, Mr. Zhang came. When he saw Song Wei, he smiled and shouted intimately, "My eldest nephew suddenly visited the humble house, but what's the important thing?"

"It's nothing." Song Wei took a sip of the tea bowl, his face calmly. "The county magistrate heard that Mr. Zhang's family had just arrived in Pingjiang County and was doing a salt business. The industry was very tight. The county magistrate was afraid that Mr. Zhang would not understand the rules of Pingjiang County, so he asked me to come and have a trip."

This is jargon.

What laymen heard was that the magistrate Lu County was honest and dedicated to the public and paid attention to people's livelihood.

When an expert, especially Mr. Zhang, he knew that his salt business was going to be good. His eyes lit up. He hurriedly bowed and changed his name to a more respectful name. "Mr. Song said that Zhang is a new arrival and does not really understand the rules here. I hope you will give me some advice?"

Song Wei smiled, "I am not a person in the officialdom and I can't interfere. Regarding the details, Mr. Zhang would better have a detailed discussion with the county magistrate in person."

"So, the county magistrate is willing to see me in person?"

"That depends on whether Mr. Zhang has the sincerity."

Mr. Zhang almost understood in seconds, "You have it, you have it, you have sincerity. I also asked Mr. Song to tell me that in three days, the Songhe Tower and Caomin personally held a banquet, and I hope the county magistrate can come."

——

When Wen Wan walked out of Zhang's house and returned to the ox cart, her legs were still weak. After all, she grew up so big that she had done a "scam" for the first time, and she was still with her husband, which was nervous and exciting.

Previously, in the hall of Mr. Zhang's house, her heart was hanging in her throat, for fear that her husband would reveal the filling.

However, from beginning to end, Song Wei's performance was very calm, which was the calmness, depth and stability of a mature man, which made people feel indescribable.

"It's only the last step." Song Wei wiped the sweat from her forehead with her sleeve. "If you don't have a premonition, let's go to the county government now."

Wen Wan nodded, comforted by his slow voice, and her heartbeat gradually stabilized.

——

When he arrived outside the county yamen, Song Wei used his old tricks again and told the doorman that he was a relative of Mr. Zhang's family.

County Magistrate Lu was waiting for Mr. Zhang to come to him. When he heard this, he was naturally happy and asked someone to invite Song Wei in.

When he saw me, County Magistrate Lu was a little stunned. Isn’t this the boy who caused trouble outside the county government after the Dahuanshan Coal Mine incident last year? How could he be a relative of Mr. Zhang’s family?

However, the world has the greatest amount of money.

In view of the fact that this kid is close to Mr. Zhang's house, he will let him go.

Due to his identity as an official, County Magistrate Lu made some adjustments before getting to the topic and asked Song Wei what he was doing here.

Song Wei said that he was just a messenger, and Mr. Zhang asked him to tell him on his behalf. Three days later, he prepared a gift in Songhe Tower and waited for the county magistrate, and he hoped that the county magistrate would give him a favor.

After pretending to say a bunch of official words to show his integrity and integrity, County Magistrate Lu "ruthlessly" nodded in agreement.

Three days later, the two of them met at Songhe Tower. After a harmonious conversation, they each took the two they needed and left the restaurant with a smile.

Mr. Zhang and County Magistrate Lu said in the restaurant. Song Wei didn't know what he said. He only knew that it has been eighteen years since he took the county exam at the age of ten. It was the first time today that he entered the examination room smoothly. No accident happened halfway through the way.

Before entering the venue, County Magistrate Lu was quite polite when he saw him, and he said hello.
