Jiang Chuyue didn't ask any more questions. It was not easy for Manager Wu to answer so many questions. The rest of the information would only be known after meeting the county magistrate himself.

The carriage stopped in front of a somewhat secluded house. As soon as Jiang Chuyue got off the carriage, a lot of people came out of the door.

At first glance, they were all familiar faces, most of whom were from Shuiyun Pavilion.

"I want to see the county magistrate. I think he should know why I come here." Jiang Chuyue didn't say anything nonsense, nor did she flatter these people.

Now that they need Jiang Chuyue's help, it is natural for them to be polite to Jiang Chuyue.

"It's Mr. Jiang. I'm sorry for not coming to greet you in person. The magistrate has been waiting for you inside for a long time. Please follow me, Mr. Jiang." The person who came forward was the servant who had been with the magistrate for many years.

Jiang Chuyue walked in front of the servant boy, who was leading the way for her half a body length behind her.

Shopkeeper Wu and a few servants followed Jiang Chuyue. Far behind them was a large group of people, all of whom were from Shuiyun Pavilion.

I guess Shuiyun Pavilion must have sent a letter to the county magistrate, which is why the county magistrate was so anxious to have them deliver the grain before the agreed time.

When Jiang Chuyue arrived into the study, the magistrate was still practicing calligraphy leisurely.

Seeing Jiang Chuyue coming in, he didn't even raise his head and said, "Boss Jiang, you don't have to be polite. Just sit down and relax."

Then the servant had tea and snacks brought in. Everything seemed normal, and Jiang Chuyue was treated politely as a guest of honor.

However, the county magistrate, who had been practicing calligraphy at his desk, did not take any action. When Shopkeeper Wu saw that the county magistrate had deliberately left them aside, he couldn't help feeling annoyed.

On the contrary, Jiang Chuyue looked calm. Seeing that Shopkeeper Wu looked unhappy, she signaled with her eyes, asking him to be patient for the time being.

But clay figures also have some temper, not to mention that Jiang Chuyue is not a clay figure.

"Mr. Magistrate, since you have something to see me about and want me to deliver the grain in advance, but from the look of you, it seems that you are not in a hurry at all?" He said to the magistrate in a sarcastic tone.

Upon hearing the voice, the magistrate finally put down the brush in his hand and looked at Jiang Chuyue. There was a hint of smile on his gloomy face, but this smile on his face made people feel a little scary.

"Boss Jiang, you misunderstood. Didn't I ask someone to treat you well?"

The magistrate took the warm handkerchief handed to him by the servant and wiped his hands briefly. He slowly walked closer and finally sat down on the left side of Jiang Chuyue.

"I really want Boss Jiang to deliver the grain in advance, but I heard from Manager Wen that it is really difficult to deliver it in advance?" Seeing that the tea in front of Jiang Chuyue had gone cold, the magistrate took the initiative to pour Jiang Chuyue another cup of warm tea.

"Delivering so much grain in advance will not be easy for anyone. This is not just a few hundred kilograms of grain, but tens of thousands of kilograms of grain." Jiang Chuyue glanced at the county magistrate.

She had known that this person was very vengeful, but she had never expected that just mentioning that delivering grain in advance was not that simple would cause Jiang Chuyue to be treated coldly.

"It seems like this means that Boss Jiang won't be able to deliver the grain in advance?" The smile on the county magistrate's face disappeared instantly, and when he looked at Jiang Chuyue with a gloomy face, shopkeeper Wu next to him was shocked by the county magistrate's ability to change his expression in an instant.

Jiang Chuyue, however, acted as if nothing had happened. She naturally took the tea that the magistrate had poured for her, took a sip, and commented, "This tea is a little broken, and the aroma is not rich enough."

"Boss Jiang actually has the leisure to drink tea at this time. I really admire him." The county magistrate continued to speak sarcastically. Ever since he suffered a setback at the hands of Jiang Chuyue, the county magistrate always spoke sarcastically whenever he saw Jiang Chuyue.

I wish I could get back some face from Jiang Chuyue.

But now, Jiang Chuyue holds in her hand what Shuiyun Pavilion wants most. Although the county magistrate dislikes Jiang Chuyue, he has to be polite to Jiang Chuyue for the sake of Shuiyun Pavilion and the Pavilion Master.

But Jiang Chuyue's mouth was so irritating that it always managed to provoke the county magistrate's anger again and again.

"Even if the sky falls, there will always be tall people to hold it up, and that tall person will not be me, so why should I be in a hurry?" Jiang Chuyue glanced at the county magistrate, and the meaning of her words was very clear.

"Boss Jiang, if something happens to Shuiyun Pavilion, the county will become a battleground for several princes, and I'm afraid your good life will be over."

There are iron mines in the county, and this alone is enough to ensure that this area will never be peaceful.

As long as there is a war, weapons and iron ore are needed. If they can occupy this land, many problems can be solved and their soldiers can use the best weapons and the strongest armor.

In the era of cold weapons, these two things are particularly important.

"So what?" Jiang Chuyue would not be swayed by the magistrate's words. She became anxious and panicked.

"Now that you want to ask me for help, please show the attitude of asking for help, Mr. County Magistrate." Jiang Chuyue's words made the County Magistrate's face completely darken.

He was puzzled as to how there could be a woman in the world like Jiang Chuyue who did not play by the rules and could make people very angry.

"I don't know why Xiao Yihao would marry a woman like you." The magistrate said hatefully.

"You don't need to worry about this matter, Mr. Magistrate." Jiang Chuyue tapped the teacup lightly on the table, impatience written all over her face.

If the magistrate continued to say this useless nonsense, she could just walk away at any time.

The magistrate obviously didn't expect Jiang Chuyue to be so angry. Seeing that he didn't say anything for a long time, he stood up and prepared to leave.

Thinking of the Pavilion Master's instructions, the County Magistrate suddenly felt overwhelmed and didn't care about his own face for a moment, "Wait."

……

After the county magistrate bowed his head, the subsequent negotiations went smoothly. Jiang Chuyue successfully obtained the information he wanted to know, and the county magistrate also achieved his goal.

On the second day, Manager Wen opened the warehouse full of grain and delivered sufficient grain to Shuiyun Pavilion.

On the other hand, after Jiang Chuyue finished delivering the grain, she was so tired that she fell asleep in Tongan Inn.

During this time, she vaguely felt someone coming, but the familiar smell made her let down her guard and she continued to sleep.

It was not until the evening that Jiang Chuyue finally woke up from her sleep. As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Xiao Yihao sitting at the table, holding a pen and writing something.

Hearing the noise here, Xiao Yihao turned his head and looked at Jiang Chuyue's curious eyes and smiled.

"Awake?" He put down the brush and took out the cakes that he had prepared in advance from the food box, "Come and try it."
