Chapter 382: A bad feeling

When Xiao Hanzheng and Fei Yuzhe came back in the afternoon, they heard about the drama.
The bailiffs would treat the prisoners in the same way that Xiao Hanzheng had asked them to.
He had broken off his relationship with them long ago anyway.
Ge Chunru was not his elder at all, and no one could say anything about it.
If Ge Chunru knowingly broke the law, there was nothing wrong with him locking her up.
Xi Rui and the others also watched the show happily.
Everyone went back to the inn to have a good meal before leaving.
Back in the room.
Shi Qingluo laughed. “Little Lady Ge brought her brother to the county government office to cause a scene. Now that she’s locked up in prison, shouldn’t you send a message to your scumbag father? ”
“Don’t worry,” Xiao Hanzheng chuckled. “I’ll wait for my scumbag father’s men to send it over.
“I found out that this afternoon, my scumbag father’s trusted aide was drunk by Little Lady Ge’s people and thrown into the inn.
“Otherwise, my scumbag father’s trusted aide will definitely stop them from doing so.”
Xiao Hanzheng’s scumbag father had sent his trusted aide to follow her because he wanted to keep an eye on Ge Chunru and prevent her from causing trouble.
However, he probably didn’t expect his little wife to be so capable.
Shi Qingluo thought for a moment and agreed.
He would only be angrier if his men were to report the news, especially when they added the part of being drunk by others.
“What do you think my scumbag father will do?” she asked curiously.
“Will he come to Heyang County to pick her up personally? ”
If that scumbag father came personally, then the trap she had dug before would only have half the effect.
Xiao Hanzheng chuckled. “With my scumbag father’s personality, he won’t come in person. It’ll make him look like he’s playing favoritism.
“The key is that we’re here. If my scumbag father knows that if he comes, he’ll definitely be in trouble. He’s a smart man.
“Moreover, he just arrived in Northern City and has just received his position as a deputy governor. He’s really busy and has to deal with King Jin.
“Even if he rode a horse, it would take a few days to travel to and fro. Some of the things he set up in Northern City will face some problems. He won’t let such things affect his plans.”
Hearing his words, Shi Qingluo was relieved. “As expected,your scumbag father prioritized himself and his power the most.”
However, Ge Chunru had indeed used up most of that scumbag father’s love.
That scumbag father’s old house had already caught fire once, so there shouldn’t be a second fire.
Xiao Hanzheng nodded. “Yes, he always puts his power and himself first.”
Therefore, Ge Chunru’s true love was just a joke.
They wanted her to face this reality as soon as possible.
The two of them exchanged a few words before changing the topic.
Xiao Hanzheng dried Shi Qingluo’s hair with a handkerchief. “Have you decided what workshop you want to open? ”
“Xi Rui and Liang Youxiao are planning to set up a workshop to make nougat and milk candy. After that, they’ll start a wool workshop,” Shi Qingluo replied.
“We twirl wool into yarn and hire female workers to weave wool products.
“Xi Rong, continue with the rouge workshop.
“For the county town, I suggest that the county government open a candle workshop and another workshop to produce canned food.”
“The locals raise sheep, and the nomads live next to us. We can buy sheep oil and mutton at a low cost.
“Goat oil can be used to make soap, scented soap, candles, and hand cream.
“We’ll make all the meat into canned meat.
“However, you still need to discuss with the emperor about opening a canned food workshop. Request him to send a batch of rubber over.
“In order for canned food to be left for a long time without going bad, you have to use rubber as a rubber ring and insert it into the cap.”
Xiao Hanzheng nodded. “Okay, I’ll write an urgent letter to the capital tomorrow.”
“By the way,” Shi Qingluo added, “there’s a type of Russian dandelion in the northern border that could allow us to extract latex. I’ll be bringing people out to look for it soon.
“As long as I find it, I’ll grow them and let the locals in Heyang County plant it. There will definitely be good profit in the future.
“If we need rubber in the future, we don’t need to ask the emperor for it anymore. This will allow the commoners to generate income while also allowing us to be self-sufficient.
In the modern era, Russian dandelion, together with Brazil rubber trees and whitetop weed were known as the world’s three largest rubber-producing plants.
The Academy of Agricultural Sciences carried out research on Russian dandelions, and she had also participated in it.
It just so happened that there were Russian dandelions here, so of course she had to make good use of it.
Xiao Hanzheng pulled Shi Qingluo into his arms from behind.
“Thank you, my wife, for your advice.”
He had a plan for governing and developing Heyang County, but he was short of money.
And his wife just happened to help with the biggest problem.
She was his good wife and his good assistant.
Shi Qing leaned against him lazily.
“We’re in the same boat. If I don’t give you advice, who else would I give it to? ”
She would only be better if her little husband was doing well.
In fact, she only knew how to come up with ideas to make money, but she was not good at governing and developing the county.
Therefore, there were many things that her young husband had to coordinate, such as how to recruit workers in the county government, how to employ the people, etc.
He would do all these.
And for communicating with the emperor, that would have to be done by her little hubby.
“That’s true,” Xiao Hanzheng chuckled and said, “it’s not tiring for us to work together as husband and wife.”
Then, he carried Shi Qingluo up. “Let’s go surfing on the boat now.”
Shi Qingluo wrapped her arms around his neck and glanced at him, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
Her little hubby was becoming more and more coquettish.
That day, she had simply made an analogy and said that it was like surfing or something, and he had actually remembered it.
Then, the two of them were together in harmony.
The next day, Xiao Yuanshi’s trusted aide woke up in the inn.
Then, he realized that there was not a single person in the inn that he had brought along with here.
The trusted aide suddenly panicked, where did Madam go?
Was she going to do something grand by making him drunk?
He immediately went to ask the innkeeper.
Only then did he know that Ge Chunru had rushed to the county office with some people to cause trouble yesterday.
She had also beaten up the county magistrate and the bailiffs, and was placed in prison by the county magistrate.
Upon hearing this news, the trusted aide wished he could faint.
If his master knew about this, he would not be in a good position.
So he hurried to the county government office to pay a visit, but was denied.
Then, he found out that his master’s eldest son had been transferred to Heyang County as the county magistrate.
No wonder he dared to throw his wife into prison.
The personal aide knew about the Xiao family and the hatred between Ge Chunru and Xiao Hanzheng.
Now that Ge Chunru had taken the initiative to give him something he could use against him, it would be surprising if Xiao Hanzheng did not take advantage of it.
Therefore, there was no way to resolve this matter.
He thought for a moment and did not write a letter to report the news.
Instead, he rushed to Northern City by himself.
Since he couldn’t save her at Heyang County, he might as well go back and apologize to him.
The trusted aide did not waste any time on the journey and also traveled throughout the night, so it only took him two days to reach Northern City.
When he returned to the deputy governor’s office, he went straight to the study room.
Xiao Yuanshi was practicing his writing.
Ever since he was defeated by Mdm Kong, he had been practicing his writing every day.
As he practiced, he couldn’t help but think of Mdm Kong.
He didn’t know why, but when he went to war, Mdm Kong was still his wife, but he had forgotten about her more and more.
However, now that they were divorced, Mdm Kong’s actions in the capital, her beating and scolding, and her lively appearance, were actually becoming clearer and clearer in his mind.
As he thought about it, he even brushed a character wrongly.
Then, he heard that one of Ge Chunru’s confidants had returned.
He could not help but have a bad feeling.
