Chapter 207
Seeing that Lin Hongfei was no longer angry, Wu Qiusheng said with a smile: "Brother, since Grandpa Qian and Uncle Chen received your letter, they immediately mobilized their relationship to help you choose the right man."
"However, many people shook their heads and refused when they heard that they were going to a place so far away in Lingnan Province, and they were still working in a county town."
"Then how did you solve it?" Lin Hongfei asked with great interest.
Wu Qiusheng waved his hand: "Hey, give me more money, money can turn ghosts, and money can also make people leave their homes."
"This time I brought 13 people, 8 of whom graduated from middle school and had already been admitted to university, but because their families were poor, they stopped studying."
"There are 5 other people who are college dropouts, and they have to drop out because they have no money to pay tuition fees."
"By the way, Grandpa Qian also mobilized a few nephews and nephews from his hometown. They probably will arrive in a few days."
Lin Hongfei let out a long breath, and the anxiety in his heart was reduced a lot: "Great, with this group of people, the internal affairs of the county government can run better."
After chatting with Wu Qiusheng and others for a while, Lin Hongfei got up to meet the 13 newcomers.
After just talking for a while, Lin Hongfei could tell that these people had some real talents and practical work. Although they could not be called talents, it was no problem for them to undertake some daily management work.
Lin Hongfei was very satisfied. With these people, his urgent needs could be solved.
Near noon, the shopkeeper of Huixian Tower personally brought his staff to the house to deliver food.
Then two of the smartest buddies were left to serve, and the shopkeeper sat on the stone bench in the yard and waited, in case Lin Hongfei had any request, he could arrange it as soon as possible.
Lin Hongfei took everyone to the table, and Wu Yongquan hurried to the house to sit in after finishing the matter at hand. He had been separated from his sister Wu Yushu for a long time, so naturally he also wanted to inquire about her sister's recent situation from Chen Mei.
During the banquet, Lin Hongfei specifically said to the 13 newcomers: "Lingnan Province is located at the junction of the north and the south, if you are not used to the food here, don't hold back, just tell me, when the time comes, I will hire a chef from the north for you .”
Naturally, everyone thanked them repeatedly, and a rather clever newcomer said: "Thank you for your concern, the county magistrate. Our appetites are not so delicate, we can eat anything!"
"Hey, you are all from Zhili, and you came all the way to Lingnan Province to help me. I can't be satisfied with anything else, but this meal still needs to satisfy everyone."
"I'm full, I don't want to go home!" Lin Hongfei laughed.
As he spoke, Lin Hongfei raised his wine glass: "Come on, let me toast you all!"
The county magistrate made a toast, so there was no reason for everyone not to drink, they stood up quickly, raised their glasses, and drank it down in one gulp!
After a banquet, everyone ate with smiles on their faces.
After the banquet, the shopkeeper of Huixian Building took the guys into the house to clean up. The shopkeeper came to Lin Hongfei and said respectfully: "Mayor, today's food is still to your taste."
Lin Hongfei smiled: "Well, very good, your skills in Xianlou are getting better and better."
"Li Kui, give each of the guys a red envelope, the shopkeeper, take three!"
When the shopkeeper heard this, he immediately thanked him again and again: "Oh, how can I afford this, thank you, the magistrate, for the reward."
"Come on, guys, hurry up and give the county magistrate a reward!"
The guys quickly stepped forward to thank them, all of them had expressions of respect and joy on their faces.
After drinking and eating, Lin Hongfei asked the housekeeper to put everyone down. Some people with weak bones just lay on the bed and refused to get up.
Some energetic and active people clamored to go for a stroll in the county town, and Wu Qiusheng and Lu Xiwa were one of them.
Lin Hongfei didn't bother to take care of them, so he asked the housekeeper to send two servants with good legs and feet as guides, and took them to the county town for a stroll. If they came across something they liked, they would buy it and charge it to his name.
When Wu Qiusheng and the others heard this, they were overjoyed. After all, someone paid for their shopping. What a beautiful thing, everyone couldn't wait to follow the servants out of the courtyard.
In Lin Hongfei's bedroom, Chen Mei was packing her luggage quickly. At this time, the bedroom door rang, and just hearing the footsteps, Chen Mei knew that it was Lin Hongfei who had come in.
Soon, a pair of strong arms hugged Chen Mei's slender waist, feeling the familiar breath, Chen Mei's body softened, and with those big hands bravely climbing the peak, she let out a suppressed hum... ···
At the same time, at the Jiangdu Wharf, a big northern man who just got off the passenger ship appeared. He was carrying a big burden and looked dusty.
Seeing that he had arrived at his destination, he couldn't help humming excitedly: "Moon Moves Flowers and Shadows, the Jade Man is here, and the lovesickness debt has been settled tonight, and the endless spring is full of rewards..."
"The flower heart is opened, the bee is picked, the willow waist is placed, the peony is blooming with dewdrops..."
"Surprised and loved at the same time..."
"It's like the Goddess of King Xiang will meet Yaotai..."
The big man sang as he walked, the more he sang, the lighter his steps became, and he walked into the county town not long after. On the avenue of the county town, the big man passed by Wu Qiusheng and his group.
Wu Qiusheng and the others wandered the street for a while, and basically everyone carried some local specialties in their hands.
It was the first time for everyone to come to Lingnan Province, and they were curious about many specialties.
At this time, Wu Qiusheng suddenly noticed a large number of people gathered outside a small two-story building not far away. People on the outer floor tiptoed to look inside one by one, as if there was some excitement.
Wu Qiusheng is a person who likes to join in the fun, he immediately led the crowd over, and then squeezed into the innermost place to have a look, couldn't help showing a little surprise.
In the open space in front of the small building, two thugs with open arms and brutal faces were kicking a man on the ground brutally.
Another man picked up the whip, shouted the two companions away, and then raised the whip and whipped violently.
But it seems that the person who was beaten should have passed out, no matter how the whip was whipped, he couldn't even move it.
Seeing this, Lu Xiwa couldn't stand it anymore, he planned to go up and persuade him not to beat him to death, but the servants at the side stopped him:
"Master Lu, don't worry about it, this must be someone who has no money to pay for whoring, that's why he was beaten."
At this time, a few people found a sign [Yixianglou] hanging on the door of the small building, and a few women wearing flowers on their hair and painted with makeup were sneaking out from the windows on the second floor.
"Dare to feel that this is a kiln!"
"I said why does it smell like rouge!" Wu Qiusheng suddenly realized.
Lu Xiwa on the side didn't make any more moves, she shook her head and said, "If you owe money, you don't owe prostitutes, it's justifiable for this person to be beaten!"
