Chu Mo was stunned for a moment when he heard the other party asking for his name.

When it comes to relationships, this guy hasn't investigated anything clearly, so he just rushes to flatter you.

Originally, he wanted to come up with a random name to fool the other party.

But when I thought about it again, I felt something was wrong.

I have used my original name all the way around, and everyone around me already knows it. If I rashly use a pseudonym, will it arouse the other party's suspicion?

And anyway, I don't plan to stay here for long, so if I leave my real name, maybe one day, Chu Xin, that girl, or other people who know me, will be pissed half to death when they hear the rumors about me.

Chu Mo felt relieved at the thought of Chu Xin being so angry at her incompetence.

Immediately, he raised his head, pointed his chin at Chen Baosheng, and said proudly:

"I will not change my surname in office or in office. My surname is Chu and my surname is Mo."

Chen Baosheng frowned when he heard Chu Mo's name.

He always felt that the name sounded familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had heard it.

But then I thought about it, the current imperial surname of the Zhou Dynasty is Chu, and the other party is also surnamed Chu. This sounds familiar and should not be a rare thing.

Thinking of this, he hurriedly cupped his hands and complimented:

"Sir, your surname is the same as that of our royal family in the Zhou Dynasty. It is impossible to say that you and Her Majesty the Empress were the same family 800 years ago."

Hearing that the other party put him and Chu Xin together, Chu Mo curled his lips in disdain and was about to say something sarcastic.

But when he thought that the person standing in front of him was probably Chu Xin's loyal fan, he quickly changed the subject:

"Mr. Chen, you are ridiculous. I am a commoner, how can I have a relationship with the royal family? If our family had not been able to stay in the Tang Dynasty, why would we have moved thousands of miles away?"

Hearing Chu Mo's words, Chen Baosheng rolled his eyes:

"I heard that there are more than 300 people accompanying you on this trip. I wonder if you have any arrangements for the servants and other servants in your family."

After hearing Chen Baosheng's words, Chu Mo knew that the guy opposite was testing his background.

Immediately pretending to be helpless, he waved his hands and sighed:

"Hey, what can I do for those people who betray the Lord? After we entered Shaanzhou City, those white-eyed wolves left us directly. The ones who are following us now are all our closest relatives."

Although Chen Baosheng was suspicious when he heard that Chu Mo and his party did not bring any slaves, but only his direct family members, he was more shocked.

It seems that the person in front of him is indeed from a wealthy family. Even though most of his servants have escaped, he can still pull out hundreds of people at will. No wonder General Lin Wan treats him differently.

He didn't think that what Chu Mo showed now was the other party's entire net worth.

Although he didn't know much about Chu Mo, he also watched their basic information on the way here.

I know that among their group, there are basically no old, weak, women or children, but all those who came are strong and mature men.

Even if there were some women among them, they should all be serving servants, and there were no female relatives at all.

This group of people on the other side is probably just the vanguard, coming to inquire about Dazhou's intelligence as the vanguard.

Thinking that there were hundreds of people in the vanguard of the other party, Chen Baosheng couldn't help but secretly marveled. Even if such a huge family couldn't compete with wealthy clans such as Wu Xing Qi Wang, the difference was probably not that big.

Thinking of this, Chen Baosheng's attitude towards Chu Mo became more respectful.

"Then Sir, I wonder if you are still satisfied with the environment of Willow Tree Village? If you are not satisfied, there are still many places under the jurisdiction of the official, and you can choose as you like."

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Chen Baosheng regretted them.

What's the matter with me? The general has already arranged for them to move here. If the other party is really planning to move again because of his words, wouldn't it be a bad thing for the general?

When Lin Wan blamed him, even if he had ten heads, they wouldn't be enough to chop him off.

Fortunately, Chu Mo didn't take Chen Baosheng's words seriously.

He waved his hand directly and said:

"No, the mountains and rivers here are beautiful, the people are simple, and it's suitable for living. I think it's good, so there's no need to change."

Hearing Chu Mo's words, Chen Baosheng breathed a sigh of relief, but before he could breathe out, Chu Mo's next words made him feel as uncomfortable as if someone had stuffed him with shit.

"It's just that although the people here are simple and honest, there are also some bad apples. For example, the village chief here bullies men and dominates women. This is not a good thing. County Magistrate, you must make the decision for the people and review it carefully. No bad guy can be spared."

After hearing Chu Mo's words, Chen Baosheng, who was still smiling, instantly turned into a bitter face.

"Sir, it's not that the lower official doesn't want to, it's actually Liu Yun... he has someone above him that the lower official can't control."

Facing Chu Mo's scrutinizing gaze, Chen Baosheng hesitated and hesitated, and finally could only reveal some details about the village chief.

"Oh, there is someone above him? I don't know what kind of relationship it is, which makes you, the head of a county, helpless."

"This... this..."

Facing Chu Mo's inquiry, Chen Baosheng became dumbfounded.

Since he has chosen not to offend both parties, he will definitely not reveal the details of both parties.

Otherwise, when there is a quarrel between the two parties, he will look like Zhu Bajie looking in the mirror, and he will no longer be a human being.

Seeing Chen Baosheng's troubled look, Chu Mo's heart tightened. It seemed that the other party had a lot of background and could even make the county magistrate dare not speak.

Originally, he only thought that a village chief in this remote mountain ravine could do something great, but now it seems that the situation is not as simple as he thought.

Thinking that he would have to stay here for a while, Chu Mo didn't want to cause any trouble, so as not to attract some people's attention.

Immediately, he took out the resettlement certificate issued to him by the governor's office of Shaanzhou City from his arms, handed it to Chen Baosheng and said:

"I wonder if your Excellency can elaborate on this for me?"

At this time, Chu Mo didn't know that Chen Baosheng came to compliment him because of Lin Wan's order.

I just thought that the other party saw that I was heroic and was impressed by my charm, so I rushed to establish friendship.

Therefore, I am going to use my name as the governor of Shaanzhou to scare the other party.

Sure enough, after Chen Baosheng opened the document handed over by Chu Mo and took a look at the governor's seal signed on it, his expression changed.

But what Chu Mo didn't expect was that Chen Baosheng just took a few deep breaths, returned the things to Chu Mo, and then said solemnly:

"Sir, this matter is of great importance. I did not hide it intentionally. Please forgive me, sir."
