Ma Cheng was not embarrassed to have Lu Feng staring at him like this. He didn't reveal any flaws, and he even thought to himself:
"Master Yang, Mr. Ma always thought that Master Yang was a good and honest official, but he didn't expect that he was such a corrupt official who tortured the people."
"If Mr. Lu hadn't exposed the evidence of his crime, Mr. Ma would have been kept in the dark, and he might have been used by him to help his evildoers."
You old fox. Lu Feng smiled and said, "So you still have to thank me?"
"Hahaha, Mr. Lu is right. Mr. Ma really has to thank Mr. Lu for getting rid of such a scourge for our Baima City and for removing a corrupt official for the court. Speaking of which, if the emperor hears this news, he will also I will appreciate Mr. Lu even more."
"Mr. Ma offered tea instead of wine to Mr. Lu and wished him a bright future."
"I'm just doing things for the court and the emperor, nothing more than that." Mr. Lu has no intention of engaging in such tricks with him now.
"But you haven't answered my question yet. Why would someone want to silence Yang Yong?"
"Mr. Lu, you are asking me now. Mr. Ma is just a businessman and manager of the gang. Mr. Ma doesn't know anything about Mr. Yang." Ma Cheng said.
"But I found out that your Qinglong Gang has a close relationship with the City Lord's Mansion. The Ma Gang Leader should know something."
"What Mr. Lu said, no matter how close we are, it's just that we need more care from the City Lord's Mansion for business. Mr. Lu also knows that businessmen must interact with the government more often, so that things can be done easily." Ma Cheng said, Put on a smile that you know.
"If Lord Lu still thinks that Ma knows some secrets of the City Lord's Mansion, then no matter how random Ma makes up a result, it is impossible to satisfy Lord Lu. If Lord Lu really doubts Ma, then there must be evidence."
Wasn't the evidence silenced by you, an old fox? Lu Feng suppressed the anger in his heart and tapped his fingers on the stone table. He knew that today's trip was in vain.
"Since the caravan leader has said so, I will definitely deal with it fairly."
"Hahaha, Ma thanked Mr. Lu for his trust in advance."
The two were talking about this, and Yan Hu happened to bring tea leaves.
After Ma Cheng boiled another pot of tea, he poured it into Lu Feng and Miao Feng's teacups.
"Come, Master Lu, Guard Miao, try to see if you like it. If you like it, I will have some sent to the inspector's house later."
Lu Feng looked at the color of the tea, smelled it again, took a final sip, nodded and said, "Not bad, it is indeed the best tea."
A member of the gang walked into the pavilion and seemed to have something to report to Ma Cheng.
Ma Cheng waved his hand, "But it doesn't matter, Mr. Lu is not an outsider."
"Gang leader, Mrs. Mi is here."
"Mrs. Mi?" Lu Feng was a little curious.
"It's like this. This Madam Mi is a business friend of my Qinglong Gang, and I often have business dealings with her. I was planning to discuss a business deal with her today."
"In that case, I won't bother you."
With that said, Lu Feng was about to get up and take Miao Feng back home.
"If Mr. Lu is not in a hurry to leave, you might as well stay and have a meal with the gang. It just so happens that Mrs. Mi has heard of Mr. Lu's reputation for a long time. She often told Ma that she wanted to get to know Mr. Lu but had no chance."
While Ma Cheng was talking, he thought that a graceful mature woman came towards the pavilion with a personal maid.
The bulging body and the cold oval face reminded Lu Feng of the female bosses in urban novels.
"Master of the horse gang." Mrs. Mi said as she walked into the pavilion.
"Mrs. Mi, you are here just in time. This is the inspector, Mr. Lu. By chance, Ma introduced Mr. Lu to you."
"I have met Mr. Lu personally. I heard that Mr. Lu is young and handsome, with both political integrity and talent. When I saw him today, he was indeed worthy of his reputation." Mrs. Mi's eyes lit up.
Being able to get acquainted with important people in the officialdom, even if the important people cannot help you now, it is always right to make friends, and maybe they will be of great help to you in the future.
Lu Feng smiled and said nothing.
Mrs. Mi sat down and Ma Cheng poured her a cup of tea.
"Now everyone in Baima City is saying that Mr. Lu knew everything and got rid of the great disaster for the people, and they are all praising Mr. Lu's achievements."
"Hahaha, it's not worth mentioning for a little effort. I wonder what kind of business Mrs. Mi is doing?" Lu Feng said.
"I'm just doing my daughter's rouge and gouache business. I can't get on the stage."
"Hey, Mrs. Mi is so humble." Ma Cheng interjected from the side: "The incense shop in Baima City is Mrs. Mi's most famous and popular, and the business is not only in Baima City, but also in the entire Jiangnan area. In terms of business, Mrs. Mi’s is the best seller.”
"The business is so big." Lu Feng was a little surprised.
Miao Feng said from the side: "Is this Wanji Incense Shop?"
Mrs. Mi smiled and said: "Exactly."
Lu Feng looked at Miao Feng, "Is this the rouge gouache from Wanji Xiangpu that you used?"
"Well, it's the one with the elegant fragrance." This reminded Miao Feng of the previous scene where Lu Feng held her and sniffed the fragrance on his neck.
"I didn't expect that this person is also a customer of my Wanji Incense Shop. I don't know what to call him?" Mrs. Mi looked at Miao Feng.
"This is Mr. Lu's Miao guard. He is very skilled." Ma Cheng introduced Lu Feng.
Mrs. Mi's eyes lit up, "I see, Wanji Incense Shop is preparing to launch a new product recently, and I will ask someone to send some to Guard Miao to give me some advice. How about it?"
Miao Feng turned to look at Lu Feng.
"You decide for yourself." Lu Feng didn't care.
After another chat in the pavilion, the banquet was prepared under Yan Hu's command.
Of course, compliments were inevitable at the wine table. After the wine and dinner were full, Lu Feng did not stay too much in the Qinglong Gang and left directly.
On the carriage.
"Feng'er, go back and ask someone to check the details of Wanji Incense Shop."
Miao Feng was a little curious, "Do you suspect that the relationship between Mrs. Mi and the Qinglong Gang is more than just normal business?"
"No, since the Qinglong Gang is hiding so deeply, let's start from other places and see if we can find anything. By the way, does anyone among the trafficked women know anything?"
Miao Feng shook her head, "I don't even know. They can only follow orders, otherwise they will be beaten to death."
With a lot of things to do, Lu Feng still has to consider the martial arts. He heard from Leng Yu that the matter of electing the leader of the martial arts alliance has been prepared, and the time is set to be held at the Wuhui Cliff of the Sword Sect in seven days.
At that time, all the martial arts sects will be present, and the leader of the martial arts alliance will be decided by the number of votes. Whoever has more votes will be elected as the leader of the martial arts alliance.
"So annoying." Lu Feng said, stretched out his arms to hug Miao Feng, and greedily smelled the faint fragrance on her neck.
"Won't Mrs. Mi bring some new products over later? Good Feng'er, I'll help you check them when the time comes."
"Bah! What a check, you just want to be evil." Miao Feng blushed.
