Rebirth starts with many children and good fortune

#380 - Chapter 380 Undercurrent in Qingxi County 2

Cheng Feng's concubine knew his preferences inside and out.

Cheng Feng also strived hard to gain cultivation experience.

Cheongsam, stockings, long legs...

Even with an incredibly tenacious belief, Cheng Feng was, after all, only one person.

Cheng Feng lay in bed,

his chest rising and falling rapidly, not even wanting to muster the strength to speak.

Cheng Feng inwardly lashed out at himself: "Next time, next time I must be more restrained."

Then, he fell into a deep sleep.

But what Cheng Feng didn't expect was that the Qingxi County town was seething with undercurrents tonight.

Qingxi County town originally had three great families and four major gangs.

The Lin family managed grain, the Zhang family managed cloth shops, and the Li family managed restaurants, making them the leaders and trendsetters of the local wealthy merchants.

Any major move they made would naturally be noticed by those with ulterior motives.

For example, the Lin family suddenly convened a family meeting,

not only did the Zhang and Li families of the same level feel surprised and wanted to find out what was going on,

but also the large and small merchants in various industries under their command obtained information through their own channels.

So-and-so's second uncle's brother's sister-in-law's eldest cousin's niece is a maid in the Lin family,

So-and-so is the Lin family's next cooperation partner, the relationship is particularly good, the source of information is extremely reliable.

Everyone was very eager to know what was happening at the Lin family's clan meeting,

was it an opportunity?

Or a risk?

The atmosphere in Qingxi County town suddenly became strange,

like a pot of water about to boil, just waiting for the moment when the steam rises.

And of the four major gangs, only the Hongmen is now the dominant force.

However, under Cheng Feng's leadership, the Hongmen disciples were thorough in their work and low-key in their behavior.

No place that should be taken care of was missed.

Most of the disciples were pragmatic,

daring to fight and having brains, having means, having bottom lines, and having goals,

no longer the kind of loud and boisterous hooligans of the past.

This made the neighbors in Qingxi County town have a lot of goodwill towards the local gang, Hongmen.

The good deeds of the Hongmen in the county town, like stones thrown into a lake, stirred up layers of ripples.

Those rumors, although as annoying as summer mosquitoes, also attracted the attention of real observers.

Among them, the Inspection Division, which had just arrived in Qingxi County town, was a clear stream in this force.

The middle-aged man, Li Xun, was the leader of this Inspection Division.

He had a calm temperament and sharp eyes, as if he could see through people's hearts.

And the knife-wielding guard Zhao Feng beside him, with bright eyes and extraordinary skills, was Li Xun's right-hand man.

As for the round man, he was Qian Fu, a small official in the county town,

who was now sitting tremblingly at the dining table, occasionally peeking at Li Xun, who was sitting in the main seat.

"Master Qian, you seem a little nervous?" Li Xun's voice was low and powerful, as if it could penetrate people's hearts.

Qian Fu trembled when he heard this, and quickly smiled ingratiatingly: "Not at all, not at all, it's just that I'm a little in awe when I first see your dignity."

Li Xun smiled slightly and said: "Don't be nervous, I asked you to come today because I want to hear your opinion on County Magistrate Xu. Of course, we can also talk about the origin of this Hongmen."

Qian Fu's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, secretly calling out that the Inspection Division was indeed here for County Magistrate Xu.

This kind of thing of betraying his superiors was not easy to do.

If any news leaked from him,

without accident, he would definitely be killed within three days.

Fortunately, he also asked about Hongmen, so there was something to say.

He stabilized his mind and said: "Answering your question, Hongmen is a newly emerging gang in recent years,

They are not as domineering as the previous gangs,

but they are reasonable in their dealings with others,

and they have their own set of guidelines for doing things and being a person.

The rules of the sect are strict, and the demeanor is solemn.

The sect master Wei Zhuang is a martial artist in the organ refining realm, and he is usually generous.

What?

Inspector, are you interested in Hongmen?"

Qian Fu was outwardly respectful, but inwardly he was ecstatic,

Finally, there was a scapegoat. Hongmen? Wei Zhuang? Who is that? I don't know them at all!!!

As long as he could attract the inspector in front of him away, Qian Fu would not hesitate to do anything!

Li Xun nodded and said: "I have been in Qingxi County town for a while and have heard about it.

But a gang is still a gang, it's suddenly changed its nature and is no longer brave and ruthless,

which is surprising,

We still have to find out their purpose."

Qian Fu's heart tightened again when he heard this, but he didn't dare to say more, and could only nod silently.

At this time, Zhao Feng suddenly interjected: "Sir,

why don't we go to Hongmen ourselves and see what they are up to."

Li Xun's eyes flashed with appreciation when he heard this, and said: "Good idea. Tomorrow, we will visit Hongmen."

Qian Fu secretly groaned in his heart when he heard this, but he didn't dare to say anything more.

As night fell, Qingxi County town gradually returned to tranquility. And under this tranquility, an undercurrent was quietly surging.

The Li family,

The head of the family, Li Tianyun, who received the news from the hidden stake,

showed a thoughtful expression after hearing about the Lin family's secret actions.

The Zhang family,

The head of the Zhang family, Zhang Hao, who received the news,

held his delicate concubine in his arms, not caring at all.

"My Zhang family has always valued harmony, but we must be wary of others.

Send someone to secretly follow them and see what they are going to do next.

Come, little beauty, let's have another drink."

In the Qingxi County town yamen, the round and rich County Magistrate Liu and his wife, Liu Shi, reacted differently to the news.

County Magistrate Liu: "It doesn't matter, it's just a family clan meeting, it can't turn the world upside down, can it?

The most important thing right now is the matter of the Red Lotus Sect rebels."

Liu Shi, on the other hand, turned her peach blossom eyes, and her thoughts turned a thousand times, her willow eyebrows slightly furrowed.

"That's not right, the news I got about the Red Lotus Sect rebels was a secret letter from my family.

At this juncture, the Lin family's actions cannot be ignored."

The fat County Magistrate Liu looked at Liu Shi: "Then what does madam mean?"

"Immediately send someone to monitor the Lin family and see what their next move is. The latest news my family gave me is that,

the Red Lotus Sect intends to attack, but the date cannot be determined.

If the Lin family really has their own channels,

then it means that the Lin family has also made contact, but I don't know which one it is."

County Magistrate Liu raised his eyebrows, and he was quite touched by the word "making contact".

In order to get promoted and make a fortune and not be at the bottom,

he can be said to have paid his reputation, dignity and everything to get in touch with the Liu family.

But even so, the charming madam in front of him was just using him to get out of the family's control.

County Magistrate Liu would never dare to cross that real bottom line.

Liu Shi's strength as an organ refining martial artist is also the reason why County Magistrate Liu did not dare to easily cross the bottom line.

As for the rumors of being henpecked that outsiders spread, County Magistrate Liu also deliberately sent people to spread them, just to protect his own safety.

Seeing Liu Shi's gaze looking over, County Magistrate Liu came back to his senses and shivered inadvertently,

immediately shouting: "Someone, this county magistrate has something to arrange."

The Lin family's clan meeting, which they thought was secret, attracted the attention of all the forces in Qingxi County town that could be ranked.

And Cheng Feng, the instigator of all this, was completely unaware, but was sleeping soundly at home, recuperating.
