Chapter 0003: The Iron Triangle
As Ye Canghai hurriedly arrived at the doorstep with a food box, he heard his mother, Li Xiujun, angrily shouting, "Don't break my things, you are bullying us too much..."
Well, I originally intended to send that kid to the Tianyue Bay garrison to have a showdown with Tie Peng, and at that time, it would be a matter of life or death. Who would have thought that I would be obstructed by that piece of scum, Tao Hongyi
Ye Canghai, with a scheme in mind, deliberately shouted loudly, "The bandits of Huangfengzhai actually dare to rob in broad daylight!"
Let me tell you, younger brother, although Yiyi's appearance is rather ordinary, her family is wealthy
Well played
However, this rascal actually dares to come knocking, does he have the audacity of a bear and the courage of a leopard? It is highly likely that someone is scheming behind the scenes
Aunt Wang from next door has already brought over Mr. Wang's daughter
Kill this group of beasts
Li Xiujun was chattering away, and Li Mu was almost left bewildered by his words
"Can it be recorded in the accounts?" Ye Canghai decided to play a trick on him
What is this? To replace wine with tea, for the first cup, I must first congratulate Lord Cai on his imminent promotion to County Vice Magistrate, and for the second cup, I congratulate Lord Lin on his promotion to Chief Clerk. Head Constable Cui wore a fawning expression, as if the gentlemen had truly been promoted.
"What a disgraceful thing, what accounts are you keeping? Do you not know that Lord Ye is the hero who killed the two leaders of the Hornet's Nest? Remember, pack up a jar of five-year-aged Daughter's Red wine as a gift." At this moment, Manager Lin Jiandong came out from the backyard and immediately began to scold.
His more than ten subordinates immediately surrounded him and began to strike
In the past, this grandson was quite arrogant. Ye Canghai, after much effort, managed to earn a couple of taels of silver by selling calligraphy and paintings, intending to buy a small bowl of stuffed chicken to honor his mother, but was directly driven out instead
Do you have a way?" Lin Yun turned to look at him
"This was given by the neighbors. Look, there is quite a pile on the ground." Li Mu pointed to the ground, and Ye Canghai glanced over; rice, cured meat, and deer hooves were almost stacked up like a grocery store.
The simple and warm-hearted neighbors, however, had never been so "enthusiastic" before, Ye Canghai couldn't help but feel a bit emotional
Forget it, let's not talk about him anymore, let's face reality
They have caused havoc for decades in the surrounding area, yet no one has been able to resolve the situation
This matter is not urgent, I will handle it, you just focus on living your life. Today is mother’s birthday, look, I brought you the most delicious stuffed chicken. Your son has become an official, from now on mother will enjoy a life of comfort.
Are you saying that Miss Yiyi is not worthy of our family Canghai
"Alright, you with the surname Ye, if you dare to hit me, I will desecrate your ancestral grave!" Fan Dong, covered in blood, crawled back up.
Moreover, everyone remember this: from now on, if anyone causes trouble in our Qingmu County, they should come to the county office to find me, Ye Canghai
Let's wait and see! Fan Dong was so frightened that he became flustered and hurriedly fled with his subordinates.
Rest assured, if they dare to bully us again in the future, just look for your 'Little Yezi' and I will take care of it. Ye Canghai had a domineering expression; 'Little Yezi' was his nickname, and the neighbors usually called him that.
The heroic deeds of having killed the two leaders of the Yellow Hornet Stronghold have already spread throughout Qingmu County, and even Luo Qing, a worker at the Drunken Fragrance Building, is aware of it. Fan Dong cannot possibly be unaware of this matter
Is it really something that Fan Dong and his gang of thugs can withstand, just randomly kicking, stretching legs, swinging arms, and throwing punches?
Otherwise, how could Canghai have been swindled out of money right after leaving the Ning family, nearly getting killed?
In the future, Cang Hai aims to hold a high official position, and it is essential to have money to pave the way for this ambition
I am ... ...
Since Ye Canghai has climbed over us, we cannot let him have it easy" Cai Daoping snorted
Wang Yuanwai is her distant relative, and your Aunt Wang has spoken highly of you on several occasions
Punish the bully, reward the 'hidden blade' martial arts set! At this moment, the jade pieces began to clatter again, and soon, a series of figures with various postures rushed into Ye Canghai's body.
That is natural, although he is in charge of us. However, the three of us can work together to leave him dumbfounded.
"Cang Hai, please get ready quickly," Li Xiujun said with a mysterious smile.
However, Ye Canghai was not willing to let him explain anything. He directly kicked out fiercely, and Fan Dong let out a miserable cry as he fell to the ground like a starving dog eating excrement, with several of his front teeth being knocked out by the stone roller.
"Good, 'Little Leaf' has emerged, from now on we will no longer be afraid." Immediately, a wave of applause followed.
The ancestral grave of the Ye family is indeed the land of the Sun family. In the past, the Ye family was so poor that they could hardly make a sound; asking them for money would probably yield no more than two taels of oil. Now it is different. Since several gentlemen wish to deal with him, I will take on the role of the vanguard this time.
Immediately, all the neighbors who were watching from the side applauded and cheered.
Of course, of course, three or two coins, let's not bother with the two coins of change; I will record a whole number for Lord Ye in the accounts. Luo Qingtou nodded like a chicken.
Over the years, with the early death of my father, the Ye family has become destitute and impoverished
Tao Hongyi is just an old stubborn man, who all day long foolishly thinks that relying on a few constables and yamen soldiers from our county office can eliminate the Hornet's Nest, utter nonsense
That iron man has a violent temper, showing no respect even to the county magistrate, Lord Zhang. Tao Hongyi went over, only to humiliate himself; it would be best to cut off his head with a single stroke.
"By then, my position as the county lieutenant will be yours," Lin Yunchong said with a smile to Captain Cui.
That kid said he would bring people to the grave soon, but then, your mother rushed forward to plead, and as a result, Fan Dong started smashing things.
"Hahaha, well said. Boss Sun is indeed our treasury. Come, come, let us toast to our sincere cooperation and joint efforts with this cup." Cai Daoping raised his glass, clinking it...
It is unclear who clapped once, but immediately, the applause erupted like rolling spring thunder
"So much, where did it come from?" Ye Canghai was taken aback, for the table was already filled with food and wine, and the entire thatched cottage was filled with a delightful aroma
"Our family has had it for a long time." Li Mu said with a beaming smile, pointing at the old wooden table in the hall
In just ten seconds, Ye Canghai stretched his sleeves a few times and casually practiced, feeling a sense of wonder as if he had learned it himself
"Is my ancestral grave being disturbed? Well then, I shall first break your bones right now." Ye Canghai raised an eyebrow and was about to take action again
This fellow immediately felt a surge of confidence and entered the room to ask, "Mother, what exactly is going on?"
Ye Canghai threw out five taels of silver, and immediately, the patrons of the restaurant stood in solemn respect
What kind of place is Huangfengzhai, where none of the seven leaders are incompetent
Fan Dongyi saw Ye Canghai charging in with a thick wooden stick as large as a human arm, filled with murderous intent, and was so frightened that he hurriedly opened his mouth to say that he was not from the Hornet's Nest.
Whenever there is something good, it all goes into Ye Canghai's belly. Now, it is time for me to show my filial piety to them.
As for Miss Ning from the provincial capital, I believe there is no hope left.
Moreover, once one becomes a high-ranking official, what is there to fear about not being able to marry several beautiful wives and concubines
Just as he was about to speak, Ye Canghai suddenly closed his mouth
Otherwise, we will have to dig up the grave. Where can our family find 500 taels?
No need! It is only natural to pay for a meal.
"What a waste of effort! Not only did we work hard for nothing, but that kid also climbed over us!" After taking a sip of tea, Captain Cui couldn't help but slam the table and curse.
Although Ye Canghai has not formally practiced martial arts, he possesses the strength of the second level of body refinement, brimming with power
Very well! Master Biao will take on the first match, and I will continue to deal with him afterwards! Isn't Ye Canghai quite formidable? If we expose the matter of the two leaders of Huangfengzhai being killed to the village, we are sure to stir up a hornet's nest.
Wang Yiyi ... ... Ye Canghai's expression changed suddenly, and he hurriedly asked.
Amidst a cacophony of chaotic explosions mixed with the wails of the damned, there lay a ground strewn with the wounded
What Cang Hai currently lacks is money. Do you think that getting promoted means you no longer need money?
As long as you secure this marriage, you will no longer have to worry about food and clothing, and you won't lack money for traveling to the capital for the examination in the future" Mother urged with an excited expression
Sister, why didn't you inform me about this? The young master is only sixteen years old, and he is already the top scholar. He has just been promoted to the county school instructor, and his future is boundless. Moreover, he has a marriage proposal in the provincial capital.
Tao Hongyi actually harbored the delusion that the two hundred soldiers sent by the governor could resolve this longstanding difficult issue, which is simply a pipe dream
Ye Canghai was immediately enraged; Fan Dong, relying on the backing of the local tycoon 'Biao Ye' Sun Daobiao from the Sun family, had been bullying men and oppressing women in the county, committing all sorts of heinous acts.
In fact, this matter is easy to handle At this moment, Sun Daobiao, who was sitting nearby, suddenly let out a dry laugh
Ah, it is Lord Ye, I will prepare it for you right away. Upon seeing this, the attendant Luo Qing immediately nodded and bowed like a sycophant
Fan Dong said that your grandfather's grave site belongs to them and urged us to immediately take 500 taels of silver to purchase it
Lord Ye, now that you are a high official, you should have them imprisoned in the dungeon
What should I prepare? Ye Canghai scratched his head, feeling a bit confused
Otherwise, would I not also become a thief
"Waiter, please bring me a pot of 'Stuffed Chicken', a plate of stir-fried deer butt, and a large bag of fried peanuts, along with a pot of 'Daughter's Red' wine, all packed to go." After receiving the reward, Ye Canghai's first action was to go to Zui Xiang Lou to buy the 'Stuffed Chicken' that his mother, Li Xiujun, most wanted to eat, preparing to return home to treat his mother and Uncle Mu to a good meal.
Knowledge without wealth is merely that of a bookworm
Indeed, it is Miss Yi Yi. She has also attended school, is knowledgeable and reasonable, and is a well-bred young lady said Li Xiujun with a beaming smile and a nod
The Ning family indeed has issues; could it be that being deceived was a trap set by the Ning family? Ye Canghai's thoughts stirred, and he took note of it.
Hurry up and get ready, for Wang Yuanwai is a well-known local tycoon in our county
Looking into the yard, it was the bully Fan Dong who had brought a group of brothers to cause trouble
"I will also say a word, with three masters backing us, you can just ask me for the money, this Qingmu County is our territory now," Sun Daobiao said, speaking with great pride and enthusiasm.
Compared to the Ning family, we are several levels behind in terms of standards
