Chapter 566: Invitation from Magistrate Guo

There weren't many changes in Qingyuan County compared to before. Wu Fan just took a few casual glances and went straight to his mansion.

"Huh? Is that Wu Fan?" The master who happened to be out strolling saw Wu Fan from a distance and was slightly stunned. Then, he quickly turned around and went to the county government office.

"Sir?" Seeing Wu Fan suddenly appear, the servants in the mansion were also slightly stunned, and then hurriedly saluted.

"Yeah." Wu Fan nodded slightly: "Is Sun Liang here?"

"Butler Sun is here, I'll go call him now." The servant said.

Not long after Wu Fan came to the hall and sat down, Sun Liang and Tang San hurried over.

"Hello, sir." Sun Liang and Tang San also hurriedly saluted when they saw Wu Fan.

"Yes." Wu Fan nodded: "Sun Liang, help me prepare a batch of Cloud Peak and Refreshing Tea immediately. In addition, prepare all the pets in the grocery store in the city. Hurry up, I'm in a hurry."

In Qingyuan County, Sun Liang and others also opened a grocery store. The things they sold were the same as those in the store in Yanyang City. The store here even opened earlier. When Wu Fan left the Hermit Village, he also instructed that the brewed Cloud Peak and Refreshing Tea be transported to Qingyuan County for sale. Therefore, when Wu Fan came back to purchase goods this time, he did not go to the Hermit Village, but to Qingyuan County.

"Yes, sir, I will arrange it now." Sun Liang responded and turned around and left in a hurry.

After the matter of the goods was explained, Wu Fan looked at Tang San and asked, "Did anything happen here or in the Hermit Village during my absence?"

"It's fine here in the mansion, nothing major happened, but in the Hermit Village, County Magistrate Guo once wanted to have someone force his way into the back mountain, seemingly wanting to capture the pets on the back mountain, but he didn't succeed." Tang San quickly replied, "County Magistrate Guo may also hate us for this, and he has been obstructing our store business in the county town, which has also led to the fact that although the things sold in our grocery store are good and have a good reputation, the business has not improved recently and is not very hot."

"Is there such a thing?" Wu Fan frowned.

"Yes, sir." Tang San replied, and then told the story of his master's two consecutive trips to the Hermit Village.

"This Guo guy is getting more and more excessive." Wu Fan snorted.

Originally, Wu Fan's principle was not to get too close to County Magistrate Guo, nor to offend him. They just lived in peace. Now it seemed that County Magistrate Guo did not think so.

Sun Liang's grocery store in the county town sold pets. If County Magistrate Guo just liked the pets on the back mountain of the Hermit Village, he could have bought them from here. However, the other party did not do so. Instead, he sent people to the back mountain of the Hermit Village. Most likely, he saw the value of the pet and wanted to monopolize it.

Wu Fan was talking about County Magistrate Guo when the servants of the mansion came to report that County Magistrate Guo invited Wu Fan to the county government office for a chat.

"How did he know I was here?" Wu Fan asked in confusion.

Wu Fan came back today but no one told him in advance. Moreover, he had just arrived at the mansion. Before he could even sit down, County Magistrate Guo knew about it. He was really well-informed.

"Tell him I don't have time." Wu Fan refused directly.

Not to mention that because of what Tang San said just now, Wu Fan had a worse impression of County Magistrate Guo. Even if this had not happened, Wu Fan had no intention of meeting County Magistrate Guo. He had limited time to come back this time, and indeed had no time to meet County Magistrate Guo.

After the servant went to reply, Wu Fan continued to chat with Tang San, asking about some recent intelligence matters.

"Bang!"

In the county government, after receiving Wu Fan's answer, County Magistrate Guo angrily smashed the teacup in his hand.

"Asshole! Who does he think he is? He is showing off here? He is just a reckless man. I invited him to give him face, but he dared to refuse me?!" County Magistrate Guo said angrily.

In County Magistrate Guo's heart, although Wu Fan was already a viscount, he never looked down on Wu Fan because of the contempt of scholars for warriors, and he did not think that Wu Fan could be compared with him. He disdained to associate with Wu Fan before, and later he even claimed Wu Fan's credit. All these show that he did not take Wu Fan seriously at all.

And now, this person he didn't take seriously actually rejected his invitation. In the eyes of County Magistrate Guo, it was really too much and too outrageous.

"Sir, how about I try?" said the master. It was useless for the servant to go, but the master's status was different after all. He represented County Magistrate Guo outside. There were not many people in Qingyuan County who didn't give him face.

"Okay." County Magistrate Guo said: "Don't be too humble when you go. There is no need to be too polite to such a reckless man."

County Magistrate Guo obviously still looked down on Wu Fan.

"Yes, sir." The master replied.

Then, the master rushed to the Wu Mansion. When the master arrived at the Wu Mansion, the people arranged by Sun Liang had almost loaded the goods that Wu Fan needed, and Wu Fan was standing by and waiting. Once the things were loaded, he was ready to leave.

"Sir Wu." The master saw Wu Fan and greeted him.

Wu Fan glanced at the master and said calmly, "It's you, what's up?"

According to what Tang San just said, the one who led the team to the Hermit Village was this seemingly modest master. If Wu Fan didn't know what he did in the Hermit Village and the attitude he showed, he might have been deceived by his appearance.

"Sir Wu, my master learned that Sir Wu was coming to the city, so he specially prepared some wine and invited Sir Wu to come to his house for a gathering." The lawyer said, his attitude was quite polite.

Wu Fan frowned slightly and said, "Didn't I just say that? I don't have time. Let's do it next time."

"Sir Wu!" The master raised his voice slightly: "This is a gift from my master. Sir Wu, is there anything important that can't wait until we finish eating before leaving?"

"Do I need to report anything to you?" Wu Fan said: "I haven't settled accounts with you about what happened in the Hermit Village. When I have time, I will go to pay a good visit to your County Magistrate Guo!"

The master naturally understood what Wu Fan meant by a good visit. Most of the time, he wanted to ask for punishment. Thinking of County Magistrate Guo's explanation, his face couldn't help but darken a little: "The Hermit Village also belongs to the scope of Qingyuan County. My master is the county magistrate of Qingyuan County, so the Hermit Village is naturally under his jurisdiction. We went to the Hermit Village and were blocked by Sir Wu's personal soldiers. My master hasn't blamed you for this, Sir Wu, but you actually blamed my master. Isn't this a bit too much?"
