The crowds of tourists were concentrated on Xuan Owl Street, and the galloping horses were close to the adobe street. The horses' hooves did not stir up much dust in Asakusa, and they did not disturb the crowd on the street.
Tourists lamented that Guangzhou city was fortunately deserted, otherwise it would have been impossible to run horses so wantonly on the streets after it was built.
The horse stopped on the grassland opposite Lantian. Gao Shun couldn't help but trembled when he saw that the person coming was Gao Yuan. Gao Yuan was clearly escorting Lu Lingqi and the two young masters to play at the beach. Now he was galloping here alone. Could something have happened?
Gao Shun walked away from everyone and rushed forward, "But what happened? Are the lord and the two young masters safe?"
Gao Yuan was startled when he heard this, "I went to do something as ordered by my husband, and there are other guards around my lord."
"So that's it." Gao Shun breathed a sigh of relief.
Lan Tian followed Gao Shun's footsteps to Lunan, and he knew by looking at Gao Yuan's expression that things were done.
Gao Yuan first saluted everyone with clasped fists, and then whispered a report into Lan Tian's ear. Lan Tian's eyebrows furrowed more and more as he listened, thinking that it was indeed similar to what he had guessed.
Yao Qi and Chen Tu found Lan Tian staring at them, and they both had an ominous premonition at the same time.
"County Magistrate Chen, do you know the shopkeeper of Panyu Trading Company?" Lan Tian asked meaningfully after listening to Gao Yuan's narration.
Chen Tu swallowed his saliva and said bravely: "We know each other, but we don't have much contact..."
Yao Qi next to him heard that there was nothing good going on, and thought to himself, why are you still secretive at this time? Isn’t the shopkeeper of Panyu Trading Company your nephew? Judging from this situation, he probably offended Lan Tian.
Lan Tian showed a strange smile: "The richest business owner in Panyu City, County Magistrate Chen actually said that we don't have close contacts? Then isn't Wang Shi your nephew?"
"I know my crime due to my humble position..."
Chen Tu was frightened by Lan Tian's strong aura. He instantly understood that his nephew Wang Shi's monopoly on the vegetable and meat supply at the construction site must have been found out clearly by Lan Tian. Thinking of this, his legs went weak and he was about to kneel down.
Gao Shun saw the look from Lan Tian and stopped Chen Tu the moment he knelt down.
"What crime did County Magistrate Chen commit? How could he behave in public?" Lan Tian's voice was a little louder.
Chen Tu became sober after being scolded like this. He broke away from Gao Shun and patted the hem of his robe, then handed over his hands to accuse: "Those vegetable farmers should be related to Wang Shi..."
When Shamoko heard this, he was fine. It turned out that he had been tricked. He said angrily: "I thought it was the leaders who were lazy, but it turned out that the shopkeeper Wang had done something secretly to see if I didn't want to peel him off." His skin.”
After Shamoke finished speaking, he was about to leave. Chen Tu was so frightened that he almost lost his mind. His legs gave out and he was about to fall down again. Gao Shun still held him up with one hand.
"The matter hasn't been investigated yet, so don't be reckless."
After hearing Lantian's scolding, Shamoko became honest, but the depression in his heart disappeared.
Lan Tian looked at Yao Qi and ordered: "Wang Shi is related to County Magistrate Chen. I will leave it to you to verify. I will ask General Gao to cooperate. Be careful not to wrongfully accuse good people or condone bad people. Everything should be done in accordance with the law."
"Wei." Yao Qi answered with his hands raised.
Yao Qi had great sympathy for Chen Tu in his heart. Wang Shi relied on his relationship with the county magistrate to become the richest man in Panyu. He didn't know if there was any illegal activity. At this time, he did not dare and could not bend the law for personal gain. Gao Shun's Zhang His selfless face makes it difficult to speak.
"Master Fu, that humble position..." Chen Tu reluctantly stood up straight.
Lan Tian frowned and said: "It is common sense for people to take care of their relatives, but you need to know how to control it. Wang said that you cannot let go of this matter. Go back and wait for news. If there are no major faults, I will arrange to be transferred from here. If the matter is serious, if..."
"Thank you, Mr. Fu..." Chen Tu broke into a cold sweat. He thought that Lan Tian would use this to establish his authority, and that he would be dismissed from office if he survived, but it seemed that there was still a chance of improvement.
"It's too early to thank me now. I hope your nephew doesn't do anything that will cause outrage." Lan Tian shook his head gently. In his impression, collusion between government and businessmen was usually a big deal.
"Wei." Chen Tu nodded.
Lantian, the construction site in Guangzhou City, came several times. He had just used the excuse to look around to give the plateau time to inquire about the situation. At this time, he had already locked the target and he lost interest.
Lantian handed over the construction site to Shamoko, and he was going to go to the beach with Gao Yuan to find his wife and children.
"Sir, these shortcakes..." Gao Shun hesitated.
Lan Tian suddenly remembered a movie plot: inviting two gentlemen to eat cake.
"Send it back to Panyu. Don't waste the money Mr. Yao spent on it." After Lan Tian finished speaking, he left Gao Yuan, and everyone bowed and bowed.
Gao Shun and Yao Qi were going back to Panyu to investigate the case, so they immediately ordered their servants to fetch the horses.
While waiting, Chen Tu sat paralyzed on the ground and his mind went blank.
Yao Qi walked to Chen Tu's side and knelt down to comfort him: "County Magistrate Chen, please relax. Things shouldn't be that bad. Although your nephew does a lot of business, he has a kind nature and he shouldn't have done anything harmful to nature." ..."
"Don't mention this beast. I tried every possible means to persuade him not to touch this construction site, but..." Chen Tu was about to cry but had no tears.
At this time, an elder came over, it was Yao Qi's friend named Liu Xi.
"This is really..." Yao Qi quickly stood up.
Liu Xi stroked his beard and said, "I see that Mr. Lan Mansion is indistinguishable in his emotions and anger. He acts calmly and thoughtfully. He is indeed not an easy person."
"Brother has to go back to Panyu to investigate the case, so he can't stay here to play with his husband..."
"How can you abolish the official position for personal reasons? Of course, business matters are more important..."
Liu Xi cupped his hands and said goodbye to Yao Qi, then nodded slightly to Gao Shun, and then strode into the crowd. Gao Shun immediately frowned. This elder was commenting on his husband, but he didn't know who he was.
When Lan Yuan and Lan Ji came to the beach for the first time, the children's nature was completely released.
The two like to play games such as flooding ant holes and burning caterpillars at home. At the beach, they often catch small fish, hermit crabs and other small animals.
Lan Yuan and Lan Ji grew up by the river and both learned to swim early, so their parents didn't worry much about the two playing in the shallows. It wasn't until the sky gradually darkened and the tide began to recede that Lan Tian urged them to go ashore.
"Father, the sea water just pulled us in. What was the reason for this?" Lan Yuan asked curiously.
Lan Tian replied: "Now the sea is beginning to ebb. When the tide ebbs, it will pull it toward the sea. When the tide rises, it will push it toward the shore. The tide rises and falls again."
Lan Yuan asked again: "If the boat is rowing back in the sea at this time, wouldn't it be pulled back by the sea water?"
Lan Tian: "The power of the tide is also limited. As long as the force exceeds the pull, you can reach the shore, but it will be more laborious than when the tide is out."
"No wonder no fishermen have come back at this time." Lan Yuan seemed to understand.
Lan Tian nodded: "If you go with the trend, you will gain strength, but if you go against the trend, you will lose strength. It is the same in life and work..."
