Zhao Xiu nodded to the county residents, who had just tried their best to protect Xiao Zhan.

But now is not the time to be moved, he will remember all these good things in his heart.

Upon hearing this, the magistrate of Quanyang County gave the chief constable of Quanyang County a look.

The captain of the Quanyang County Police nodded and accepted the order. Now they were unable to enter the door, and they didn't know whether the magistrate of Tongan County was there.

They also didn't know who the two people who had been sitting still in the county government courtyard were, and they were even less sure what the Tongan County Government was up to.

Now that the chief constable of Tongan County has shown up, they will of course seize this opportunity.

Otherwise, today, the people from Quanyang County Government came to Tongan County and didn't even enter the gate of the county government. If this got out, wouldn't it be laughed at?

Even if they could make up for it by returning to Quanyang County, what happened today was enough to make them lose face completely!

The captain of the Quanyang County police took a deep breath and looked up at the middle-aged man who was walking slowly towards him.

The man had a sturdy build and steady steps, and it was obvious that he had practiced martial arts.

The aura he exudes is no less than that of a county constable.

This made the Quanyang County police chief extremely alert. He thought the person in front of him would not be easy to deal with.

He forced a stiff smile on his face. If he had been asked to fawn on the head of a police station in a poor county like this in the past, it would have been more painful than killing him.

But now, we are under someone's roof and have to bow our heads.

He said, "My dear brother, I am Shao Mingyi, the chief constable of Quanyang County, and this is the Magistrate of Ba County of Quanyang County."

As soon as Zhao Xiu walked in, he recognized the person in front of him. He was the chief constable and the county magistrate of Quanyang County. He had seen them before when he went to Quanyang County to do shopping.

But he would not admit it. He looked at the person behind Shao Mingyi in surprise, then suddenly opened his mouth.

"It turned out to be Magistrate Ba and Captain Shao of Quanyang County!"

Then he turned to look at the county residents gathered around him and waved to them.

"Everyone go back and line up. Those who need tickets should get their tickets. The sun is strong these days. You should get drunk when you go back later, okay?"

"Eh!"

The county residents were very obedient. They put down their farm tools and lined up again very quickly.

Seeing them like this, Shao Mingyi felt a little proud again and nodded at Zhao Xiu.

"That's right. Today we have an important matter to discuss with you, Master Shen of Tong'an County. I wonder if Master Shen is in the yamen?"

He thought that if the Tongan County constable welcomed them in respectfully, then they could still talk. Otherwise, when they returned to Quanyang County, don't blame them for being rude!

Zhao Xiu did not answer Shao Mingyi's question, but looked at him carefully.

Zhao Xiu looked him up and down and asked doubtfully:

"I don't know, since Brother Shao is the head of the Quanyang County Police, why do you want to teach my Tongan County constable a lesson?"

Shao Mingyi's face froze when he asked this question. What did this person mean? He was holding on to it?

Without waiting for his answer, Zhao Xiu continued, "Although our two counties are brother counties, there is no reason for us to interfere in other people's affairs, brother Shao, don't you think so?"

The smile on Shao Mingyi's face disappeared completely, he cursed in his heart, who is our brother county with this poor place?

Seeing that he was silent, Zhao Xiu smiled, then bowed to Magistrate Ba and said:

"If my men have failed in their duties, Lord Shen and I will teach them a lesson. I hope Magistrate Ba will not let Captain Shao disrupt the friendly relationship between our brother counties."

Mixing up?! Shao Mingyi couldn't help it anymore.

He was clearly a small constable from Tongan County who was so arrogant that he dared to refuse admission to the magistrate of Quanyang County.

If there really was interference, it was that little detective who was causing it!

Now this person puts such a high hat on his head? !

Upon hearing this, Magistrate Ba could no longer suppress his anger. He, Ba Lezhan, had been an official for more than ten years. Although his political achievements were not remarkable, the prosperity of Quanyang County where he was now in office was obvious to all in the surrounding area.

Today can be said to be the greatest humiliation he has suffered in recent years, and what kind of people are on the other side.

Just a constable!

At this moment, he was torn between his own conscience and his own desires. On one side was the high-yield rice in Tongan County, and on the other side was his and Quanyang County's reputation.

Which is more important?

He felt a little regretful. If he had known earlier, he would not have gotten off the carriage. He should have waited until the magistrate of Tongan County came out to greet him before getting off.

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Zhao Xiu just lowered his eyes and stood aside waiting.

After a moment, Balezhan finally made a decision in his heart.

He had been the county magistrate for more than ten years, and each time he was transferred, it was a lateral move. Even though Quanyang County, where he was appointed this time, was quite prosperous, it could not guarantee that his official career would be smooth. He had long been fed up with the title of Magistrate of Ba County, and he wanted to be promoted.

If he could get the high-yield rice seeds from the Tongan County magistrate this year, he could then work with the Tongan County magistrate to control the grain seeds.

Promotion in those two years is a sure thing.

Does he want career or face? It's obvious.

After a moment of silence, Ba Lezhan asked, "I do have something to ask Lord Shen. Is Lord Shen in the yamen?"

His tone wasn't good, but it wasn't bad either.

Before he came, he thought that as long as he put forward the conditions he wanted, the Tongan County Magistrate would have no reason to refuse.

Therefore, he never told Shao Mingyi what attitude he should take. In his opinion, it was just an equal exchange and there was no need to be humble.

But who would have thought that everyone in Tongan County, from the county government to the county residents, were not easy to deal with. Now they haven't even entered the gate of the Tongan County Government!

Why didn’t I realize that these people were so tough before?

Zhao Xiu smiled when he heard that. Hearing that, you little brat, why didn't you straighten out your attitude earlier?

He said, "It's still early now. Your Excellency should be in the yamen. Magistrate Ba will follow me."

Magistrate Ba shook his robe and motioned Zhao Xiu to lead the way. At the moment, he could only express his dissatisfaction in this way.

Everyone in Quanyang County breathed a sigh of relief. They were finally able to get in. They would definitely not come to Tongan County next time!

When Zhao Xiu passed by Xiao Zhan, he patted his shoulder and whispered with his mouth: "Well done."

Xiao Zhan smiled back at him and silently wiped the sweat from his palms on his clothes.

Damn, he was so nervous! If Brother Zhao didn't come, he would lose his balance!

If you want to talk about how exciting the situation just now was, it was that the iron ruler in Shao Mingyi's hand was only 0.01 centimeter away from his eyes!

Fortunately, Brother Zhao really arrived in time.

Xiao Zhan breathed a sigh of relief as he looked at his back. According to the adults' meaning, now that he had shown enough power, he could leave the rest to the adults and Brother Zhao.

Zhao Xiu led a group of people from Quanyang County into the county government office.

As soon as Balezhan entered, he saw a woman sitting in the corner room drinking tea.

Although he had never seen the magistrate of Tongan County before, and the woman was not wearing the magistrate's official robe today, he could immediately confirm that this person was the magistrate of Tongan County, Shen Zheng.
