Longmen County, the residence of the County Prime Minister Ren.
In the brightly lit study room, Wang Ren sat expressionlessly on the main seat, flipping through the account book in his hand.
On both sides of the study, three middle-aged men in brocade clothes sat on mahogany chairs as if on pins and needles.
Their eyes were secretly paying attention to Wang Ren's expression.
After reading all the account books, Wang Ren stared directly at the fat man on the left.
"Bang!"
"Kang Dashi, please explain to me why Yuefangshi's income dropped so much last month?"
I saw Wang Ren slammed the account book on the table with a murderous look on his face.
"It's a full 40% less!"
"Tell me, where did all the money go!"
Wang Ren pointed and his face turned into pig liver with fear. The lustful man roared.
Since the fall of the Yulong Gang, Wang Ren's income has dropped sharply without the two biggest income-generating industries, casinos and brothels.
Of course, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, and Wang Ren still has many properties under his name.
And Fangshi is one of the industries where he can earn the fastest and the most stable income.
Now that even Fang City’s income has been affected, it’s no wonder Wang Ren is so angry.
Kang Dashi is one of Wang Ren's right-hand men and is responsible for the management of the market. His main source of income is the rent paid by shops and stalls.
He stood up from the chair tremblingly, knelt on the ground and explained.
"Sir, since grain merchant Li Fugui's shop was stolen, several shop owners have followed Li Fugui to cancel the lease."
"The shops they rent are all large shops. , no one has the ability to take over in a short time."
"But please don't worry, I will try my best to rent out the shop."
Kang Dashi noticed that Wang Ren's expression changed. There was something strange, so he paused.
When he noticed that Wang Ren's eyes became sharp again, he immediately said again.
"In addition, the people who set up stalls to buy meat and sell vegetables stopped coming to the market to set up stalls because of the large purchases in Majiazhuang."
"They directly Sold to Majiazhuang."
"The above are the reasons for the decrease in Fangshi's income. I hope you will understand clearly."
Kang Dashi fell to the ground and kowtowed heavily. Ring your head.
Wang Ren’s face looked as ugly as if he had eaten shit.
It turns out that the evil consequences came from him.
If I hadn't been greedy and eager to eat the big fat sheep like Li Fugui, there wouldn't have been so many things later.
"Hey."
He sighed and waved his hand.
"Get up, hurry up and rent out the shop this month. If you don't have it next month,Come on, pick up the shit for me. ”
“Thank you, Master. I will definitely live up to your expectations.” "
Kang Dashi kowtowed several times and said with a bit of joy in his tone.
When he got up, his body felt much more relaxed.
Wang Ren then moved his eyes to the right side, a fat middle-aged man with the same length.
He nodded with satisfaction, with an expression of approval on his face.
“Mo Danggui has done well, and the wine shop’s income has actually increased by 30%. "
Faced with Wang Ren's praise, Mo Danggui's face did not show joy, but instead showed a sad look.
"Master, I really can't stand the praise. "
He stood up in the doubtful eyes of everyone, and said to Wang Renzuo.
"Master, today the old clerk from the county came to the wine shop for dinner and revealed to the villain. Got a message. "
"He said that people from Majiazhuang came to Magistrate Ma today to take over the casino and prepare to use it to open a wine shop. ”
“The location of the casino is excellent. Now that there is an additional competitor, our business may be affected.”
Mo Danggui is a smart person.
He prepared Wang Ren's psychological expectations in advance so that if the wine shop's business was affected in the future, it would be easier to explain.
"Ma Zhou and Majiazhuang are really two troublemakers. Sooner or later, I will deal with you!"
Wang Ren clenched his fists and thought viciously in his heart.
Wang Ren knew that Magistrate Deng and the Huang family in Taiping County were all in the hands of Majiazhuang.
Therefore, he will not directly face Majiazhuang in the short term.
After following the feng shui for nearly ten years, everything has gone wrong since meeting the two troublemakers, Ma Zhou and Wang Jian.

Wang Ren calmed down, his face looked a little ugly, he stared at Mo Danggui and said.
"Danggui, you are worrying too much. Our wine shop has been in business for seven or eight years and has a good reputation in the county."
"You can't even compete with a bunch of mud-legged people. Right?"
Wang Ren's triangular eyes were like a poisonous snake, staring straight at Mo Danggui.
It was as if he could see through his heart.
Kang Dashi and another man gloated.
"You bastard, I asked you to be clever."
"It's just a little trick like yours. It's okay to deceive others. Can you deceive the master?"
They both cursed in their hearts.
Mo Danggui's expression changed. He did not dare to continue to be clever, but patted his chest and promised.
"Please don't worry, sir. Our wine shop is famous far and wide, and a small Majiazhuang is no exception."
"Well, do your best."
Wang Ren encouraged him lukewarmly.
Immediately afterwards, he also set his sights on the last person.
This man is rather thin and has dark skin, resembling a farmer.
"Tian Dagou, I don't blame you for the decrease in grain harvest. It was caused by natural disasters."
"But you didn't recoup the land rent in full, how should you explain this? "
Wang Ren opened the account book, looked at the bills recorded on it and said, "Only less than 30% of the land rent has been recovered, and 70% is still outstanding?"
"Tian Dagou, what am I doing? When the time comes, can we close the account?"
Tian Dagou, who was happily living in his home just a second ago, was so frightened that his legs went weak.
He rolled off the chair and buried his head deep into the wooden floor.
He explained while kowtowing.
"Master, many sharecroppers have harvested nothing this year, and some of the better ones can only keep 20% of their harvest."
"The small ones not only harvested all the grain from these sharecroppers. , I also brought back some valuable things from their house."
"You really did your best, sir!"
He didn't dare to imitate the Yulong Gang. The way of doing things, if you can't pay the land rent, if you have a daughter, your daughter will pay the debt, and if you don't have a daughter, your mother-in-law will pay the debt.
He could only move back everything he could.
"A bunch of losers!"
Wang Ren grabbed the teacup on the table and threw it heavily to the ground.
The fragments of the teacup scratched Tian Dagou's arm, and he remained silent and did not dare to move.
Just when the atmosphere in the study was extremely serious, a servant's voice rang outside the door.
"Master, there is a letter from Taiyuan."
"Come in."
As the door opened, I saw a young man wearing a servant's uniform, his hands He walked in holding a secret letter.
After he handed the letter to Wang Ren with both hands, he stepped back without looking away, and closed the door gently when he stepped out of the room.
Wang Ren held the letter tightly, his eyes stern.
He glanced at the three men in front of him and said in a deep voice.
"Humph, please step aside."
"If it still looks like this next month, you all will pick the shit for me!"
Wang Ren suppressed the anger in his heart and waved his hands.
"Master, please leave first."
The three of them quickly bowed and retreated as if they were relieved.
For eight years, they have never experienced such a serious scene.
In the past, everyone would spend the time with a smile when handing over the ledger, and the master would entertain them with a banquet in the evening.
I don’t know how long this hard life will last.
Hey!
After everyone left, Wang Ren sat back down.
After opening the letter, Wang Ren realized that it was originally written to him by Wang Lishang.
The first sentence of the letter is.
"Brother Ren, I have made arrangements for you. By the end of this year, big things will happen!"
