Chapter 227 Don’t even think about taking advantage
After sending the people who did the job out, County Magistrate Huang felt relieved.
He can't get the reputation of doing good deeds, so the people from the He family can't get it either!
He wanted to destroy the image that the He family had spent a huge amount of money to build up in the past few days!
He was waiting for good news tomorrow, since today was already the fifth day.
Tomorrow morning will be the sixth day. The water level of Haizhu River has now reached a safe level. It seems that the Dragon Girl has completed her tribulation and has passed away!
He just didn't believe that the goddess Dragon Girl cared so much about a tiny Haizhu River.
"These five days have felt as long as five years. I have to spend money every day. I am afraid to go to the brothel to have a drink. Shopkeeper Ma came to me to ask for money. When can I wait until midnight?"
County Magistrate Huang subconsciously glanced at the birdcage clock ornament that he often placed on his desk.
But now that place was empty, he just remembered that he used the broken ornament as an excuse to call the shopkeeper Ma for a lecture.
When Shopkeeper Ma left, he took the ornament with him, saying he was going to repair it.

Today is the last day, and Jiang Lili has to do some finishing work, so she goes to bed a little later than usual.
Just as she was washing up, Xiaopang sent her a message.
[@张小胖: Li Li, when I was checking the micro camera and the voice recorder, I found an important file! ]
[Group member Zhang Xiaopang uploaded the group file: video excerpt.mp4]
Jiang Lili clicked on the video and the camera angle was facing County Magistrate Huang's face.
In the video, County Magistrate Huang said indignantly: "Why should I be scolded for paying money, while the He family is so prosperous?!"
The housekeeper stood aside, speaking cunningly: "Since you can't stand it, why not just do something? Since you can't get the good reputation, then destroy it and don't let them get it! This way no one can take advantage, and you will feel better."
County Magistrate Huang asked with interest, "What do you mean?"
The housekeeper smiled and said, "My Lord, have you heard of the datura flower? It was rampant in Lianzhou, Lingnan for a while. The Yun family in Lingnan ground the datura flower into powder and put it in the food in the restaurant, which made people addicted."
Huang Jun Shou: "Oh! I heard about that incident. Even the Minister of Agriculture was brought here!"
"I know a guy who has a shipment of datura flowers."
The housekeeper told him the evil intentions in his mind: "Isn't it that the He family is kindhearted and provides free meals to people? Send two skilled people to put the Tuo Luo flower in the back kitchen of the He family's farm, and we will send people to investigate and catch him in the act tomorrow morning."
"Let's say the He family pretended to provide relief to the people by distributing porridge and medicine, but in fact they were drugging the people to control them and make them do things for them!"
"Great, great!" County Magistrate Huang's face was flushed with excitement: "Isn't the morning tea business of Fuzhu Restaurant very good? How about we also put some in?"
"Search and confiscate all the He family's shops in Haizhou!"
There was a greedy gleam in County Magistrate Huang's eyes.
The housekeeper looked cautious: "Sir, this is too big a move, it's not safe! If the He family invites the Minister of Agriculture again, we will be in trouble."
Huang County Magistrate finally gave up: "Well, we can still slowly negotiate with the He family in the future. Anyway, the Dragon Girl is gone. Let's just pour cold water on these people who enthusiastically support the He family!"
"Before doing this, I will give Shopkeeper Ma an ultimatum and ask him to give me the fruits of his charity. This way, we can have the best of both worlds. Now it depends on whether he knows what is good for him."
County Magistrate Huang pointed in the direction of the birdcage clock and said, "Butler, just say that the time axis ornament is broken and ask Shopkeeper Ma to come over again!"
The important content of the video ends here.
Jiang Lili didn't know whether to laugh or cry after watching the video. This time, the timeline ornament was delivered by County Magistrate Huang himself, and the whole process of their conspiracy was also delivered. She didn't know what to say!
Jiang Lili also did not expect that the forbidden flower, the Tura flower discovered by He Lin, could appear in Haizhou again.
Looks like I'll have to sleep somewhere else tonight.
Jiang Lili woke up the groom who was sleeping in the next room and threw him a bag of silver coins, "Let's go to the He family farm first!"
The next morning, the rain had stopped. This was not Jiang Lili's work. Jiang Lili did not have the ability to adjust the weather in such a large county, but the severe convective weather had ended.
At the hour of Chen, the people in the He family's farm got up one after another and began to work, and dinner was served on time at exactly the hour of Chen.
The cook and the servants carried the wooden barrels to the most open area of the farm, and the victims lined up in an orderly manner to receive their meals.
"Wow, it smells so good, the porridge we're serving today is mushroom and shredded chicken porridge!"
The person at the front of the line sniffed the aroma emanating from the barrel.
“The chickens we raise ourselves are so delicious.”
His wife gently hit him on the shoulder and said, "You are flattering yourself. We have only raised this chicken for five days!"
The people at the back of the team heard this and said, "But the chickens raised according to the method taught by Shopkeeper Jiang are indeed much more standardized than the chickens we usually raise at home. We can also raise chickens in this way when we go back!"
Everyone was chatting when suddenly there was a loud noise outside.
The manager of the He Family Manor, Manager Jiang, said, "Hey, what are you doing? Stop kicking the door and smashing things!"
Immediately afterwards, the door of Zhuangzi was kicked open and soldiers rushed in.
The victims looked at the soldiers in horror. Everyone was always afraid of the soldiers under Governor Huang.
"We have received reports that the He family farm mixed pollen from the Toraja flower into the food for the disaster victims. The Toraja flower is a forbidden flower. Eating it will cause hallucinations and addiction!"
The leading officer used the knife he was carrying to knock the bowls of porridge out of the hands of the victims.
"What else can I eat?"
"The He family mixed something into your porridge in an attempt to control you!"
Someone asked in confusion: "How do you control us?"
The leader of the officers and soldiers looked at the puzzled expressions of these people and asked: "Do you feel particularly happy and carefree here?"
"That's because this datura flower makes people hallucinate and feel excited!"
After hearing this, the victims looked at each other in bewilderment and could not help but wonder: "But the place we live in is real, and the warm clothes we wear are also real."
"If none of this is true, then what is?"
The leader of the officers and soldiers was speechless for a moment.
"Idiot, this is just a way for them to control you. When you become completely addicted to the datura, they will treat you like slaves. How can they give you such good treatment?!"
When the officers and soldiers saw that the first reaction of the victims after hearing about the Dhula flower was not fear or panic but questioning, they all thought that these people were brainwashed.
