Zhang Gong's action was like a signal, giving some people who were originally hesitant a piece of mind.
Immediately, a small number of people present stood up at the same time and raised their glasses to toast Ma Zhou.
These people usually follow Zhang Gong's lead. When they see the boss giving face to the new county magistrate, they follow him one after another.
Wang Ren, who was standing with a toast, his face darkened, and he squinted at Zhang Gong and Cheng Chumo, who was holding a leg of lamb and chewing on it.
He glanced at the man who stood up again, gritted his teeth, and made a mental note.
A few bastards are settling their scores!
Although Wang Ren was a little angry in his heart, he still pretended to be calm and calm on the surface, and said to others hypocritically.
"Why are you still standing there? Mr. Ma has already made a toast, why don't you raise your glasses quickly?"
Wang Ren's words are very effective, and most of the people who act based on his wink Then a toast was raised, which heated up the half-cold place.
This dinner was full of struggle from the beginning.
In the following discussion, Wang Ren showed how strong his background was and how powerful he was in Longmen County.
Of course, Ma Zhou is not an ordinary person. Although he comes from a poor family, his experience and the people he has made friends with are extraordinary.
He also responded in an orderly manner, winning Zhang Gong's frequent nods.
Wang Ren, who had almost finished eating and had a rosy face with a hint of alcohol, suddenly stood up, picked up the wine glass and walked to Cheng Chumo, shaking his body.
Wang Ren raised the wine glass in front of Cheng Chumo and spoke intermittently.
"This~ this little general, what is the name of the elder in the family? What is the position in the army?"
Cheng Chumo ate a whole sheep He threw the leg bones on the table and picked his teeth with the bamboo stick in front of him.
He half-leaned and looked at Wang Ren. Although he felt disgusted, he still responded to him carelessly in order to make it easier for Ma Zhou.
"My father, Cheng Yaojin, is the general of Youwuwei and the envoy of Chijie, the military governor of Lu, Rong and Rong three states, and the governor of Luzhou."
"Peng!"
p>Cheng Chumo's words were like a big stone thrown into a pond with small waves.
The fried tortoise inside was so dizzy that it gradually surfaced.
This time, except Ma Zhou, everyone showed surprised expressions.
Immediately, a dozen wealthy businessmen came up to him in a flattering manner, revealing their identities one after another in the hope of being appreciated by Cheng Chumo.
Even Zhang Gong, who had always been calm and calm, looked at Cheng Chumo in shock. He was a member of the army and would be promoted in the army in the future.
If he could get to know the son of one of the big guys in the army, his official career would definitely be smooth sailing.
Compared with the son of the Duke, the little Wang Ren is nothing.
Don’tIt is said that Wang Ren is a collateral line of the Wang family in Taiyuan. Even if he is a direct descendant, he cannot compare with Cheng Chumo's status.
Cheng Yaojin is Li Shimin’s confidant and a current celebrity.
Cheng Chumo is also the eldest son of Cheng Yaojin, and he will inherit the position of Duke in the future.
A son is more valuable than his father!
Seeing everyone fawningly surrounding Cheng Chumo, Wang Ren felt a little unhappy.
"Get out of here!"
Wang Ren cursed in disgust at the wealthy businessman in front of him
His words were very intimidating, and he gathered around and prepared The wealthy businessmen who rushed over retreated one after another.
But there was a different message in their eyes.
"Hey, it turns out to be General Cheng. I am too blind to recognize Mount Tai."
"I am Wang Ren of the Wang family in Taiyuan. Here is a toast to General Cheng."
After Wang Ren finished speaking, he drank the wine in one gulp and patted the wealthy businessman in front of him.
The wealthy businessman touched his nose and moved away angrily to sit next to him.
Wang Renyi sat down against Cheng Chumo, his red face seemed to have lost some of his drunkenness.
He said calmly.
"Little General Cheng, I think the weapon you use is an axe. It just so happens that my Wang family has a fine mountain ax in our collection."

"It is said to be a weapon used by Xu Huang in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. Are you interested in going back with me to taste it?"
Cheng Chumo didn't look at Wang Ren and hit him. Burping and shaking his head, "I'll do it next time."
I don't know where Cheng Chumo learned this from, but it sounds a bit perfunctory.
Wang Ren was disgraced. Although he was full of shame and anger in his heart, he looked unconcerned on the surface.
He smiled slightly, squinted his eyes, raised his hands to Cheng Chumo and said.
"I am always waiting for the arrival of General Cheng."
Although Cheng Chumo, a stupid young man, did not give him any face, Wang Ren could not offend Cheng Chumo.
Wang Ren was like the protagonist of the scene. He forced a smile and stood up, raised his glass and said to everyone.
"General Cheng is coming to Longmen County. Shouldn't we toast him with a toast as a landlord?"
"We should toast General Cheng with a toast. I'll fill it up first. ”
“Give it to me too. ”
A group of people rushed to pour the wine, fearing that they would be slower than others.
The protagonist of this banquet was suddenly led astray by Wang Ren.
It was clear that he did not take Ma Zhou seriously.
Ma Zhou looked at Cheng Chumo who looked helpless, smiled and nodded towards him.
He is not a pushy person, and he is also interested in flattery.Cheng has no good impression.
A person eats slowly and slowly, without any influence in his heart.
...
After the dinner, Ma Zhou directly asked Wang Ren and other officials to go to the Yamen to report on their duties without taking much rest.
The new president has too much to do, and he also shoulders the heavy burden of retrying unjust cases assigned by Fang Xuanling.
With Majiazhuang and Wang Jian here, he can sit back and relax about the development of people's livelihood and the food crisis in the coming year.
The internal affairs department did not continue to follow. He left forty soldiers to protect Ma Zhou and rushed to the state capital with the remaining soldiers.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading!
He didn’t learn anything else from his visit to Majiazhuang yesterday, but he always kept in mind that he could make a lot of money as a well drilling agent.
As one of the powerful sons of Chang'an, he has accomplished nothing. Now that he has a way to make a lot of money, he rushes to report to his father immediately.
Except for the excitement with the arrival of the new county magistrate, Longmen County quickly returned to the right track of life.
Everyone returned to their previous lives, and there were no big changes immediately because of the replacement of the county boss.
Six days passed, and Ma Zhou did not give any new instructions to the officials.
Either go for a stroll in the county's towns or live in seclusion.
During the process, merchants were summoned to discuss the matter for a long time.
Li Fugui, Zhu Youcai and others, who were major grain merchants in Longmen County, were among them.
Wang Ren, who was nervous, was puzzled. The new county magistrate's behavior was somewhat abnormal.
A well-known local aristocratic family came to his door more than once to inquire about the situation, but he waved them away in the end.
When a new official takes office and has not yet been put on the line, everyone feels uneasy.
What’s more, their hands and feet are not clean.
...
There are many people in Majiazhuang today, including Ma Sanye, Han Xuelian, Xue Rengui, the captain of the well drilling team, the captain of the livestock breeding team, the captain of the crop planting team...
More than two hundred people packed the conference room of the well drilling engineering team.
Liu Chunhua led several women in and out of the conference room carrying hot tea and cakes, looking very busy.
The long table and the chairs against the wall were crowded with people.
Everyone looked at Wang Jian, who was sitting in the center, with doubts and expectations in their eyes.
Ma Sanye and other core staff naturally understood, and their expressions were calm.
