I feel so good after dressing up as a peasant girl

Chapter 221 Gu Yongwen's Purpose 3

Gu Wenxuan sneered. She was not mentally retarded. She would not believe a single word of Gu Yongwen's ungentlemanly words.

She maintained her previous attitude and said, "No need. If there is nothing else, you can leave."

Gu Wenxuan didn't want to be a fool who was easily fooled, but Gu Tong's old wife was dazzled by the possible benefits. She was very tempted and stretched out her hand to push through the crowd and squeeze to the front.

Before her hands could touch anyone else, Gu Tong pulled her back to where she was standing, "Just stay still!"

Gu Tong's wife wanted to say something, but Gu Tong took the initiative and glared at the stupid woman, scaring her so much that she had to shut her mouth reluctantly.

Because of the crowd, Gu Yongwen did not notice the argument between Gu Tong and his wife. He held back his anger and said to Gu Wenxuan:

"You are still too young, and you don't understand the benefits of having someone in the government, blah blah... Second uncle, cousin, you really need to take good care of her, otherwise she will definitely cause trouble for the family in the future."

Old Master Gu glanced at him and said, "Wenxuan's meaning is what our whole family means. We don't need your family's support. If there is nothing else, you can go home as soon as possible."

The two brothers Gu Yongming and Gu Yongqing nodded vigorously, "That's right, Wenxuan has the final say on my family's affairs!"

Seeing that he couldn't fool them, Gu Yongwen immediately changed his face and began to threaten them, "I advise you to think carefully before you speak. I will be going to the county government to take up my post soon. If you don't curry favor with me now, I will never let you live in peace when I take office."

One of the purposes of his visit this time was to cause trouble for Gu Wenxuan's family and swallow up their huge fortune.

It is worth mentioning that Gu Yongwen did not know that Gu Wenxuan actually had many industries. He only knew that his family not only bought fields around the village, but also had a farm near the county town and a house located in a prosperous area of ​​the county town.

These three properties alone, as well as the Gu family's current reserves of grain, silver, oxen, etc., are enough to make Gu Yongwen's family jealous to the core.

Ever since Old Man Gu passed away, their family moved to town, and their expenses have been increasing day by day.

Not only did they spend a lot of money to buy the house in the first place, but later on, their family became proud of their status and only wanted to enjoy themselves and not work.

They have always hired people to cultivate the fields in the village, and after deducting wages, taxes and so on, the output of the fields is not enough for them to maintain their current luxurious life of eating meat every day, eating fine grains every meal, wearing fine cloth clothes, and wearing various accessories, so they can only continue to live off their savings bit by bit.

By now, they had been enjoying such a good life, and had bribed relevant personnel to buy a scholar position for Gu Yongwen. Their family had already spent all their savings.

Now their family has moved to the county town, where the consumption level has become higher, but their total family income will not increase much. So, they have to find a way to make money for themselves.

They wanted Gu Wenxuan's family's wealth, and they also still resented the fact that the other party was unwilling to introduce them to a noble person.

In their view, although Gu Wenxuan's family knew an important person, the important person they knew was far away in the state capital. As the saying goes, a county magistrate is not as good as a current manager, and distant water cannot quench a nearby fire. As long as their family acted ruthlessly and quickly, and did not give Gu Wenxuan's family the opportunity to ask the important person for help, the other party would not even hear the news of their dealings with Gu Wenxuan's family, and naturally would not come running to support Gu Wenxuan and others.

Later, the token bestowed by the noble fell into their hands. If they handled it well, they could even make a profit for themselves by using the token bestowed by the noble.

The benefits were so great that Gu Yongwen's family couldn't eat or sleep well, so it was no surprise that they would take the risk.

They didn't know what Gu Wenxuan had done in private, so they certainly had no fear of Gu Wenxuan's family. That's why they naively thought that if they brought a dozen strong men over and used his title of "official", Gu Wenxuan and the others would obediently submit.

They also didn't know that the villagers of Baijia Village were now united as one and were facing the outside world, so they were not only planning to take over Gu Wenxuan's family's obvious industries, they were also eyeing some of the wealthy families in the village.

After all, although the industries that Gu Wenxuan's family has on the surface are enough to make them envious and jealous, the income that those industries can bring them every year is still far from enough to cover their future expenses.

So where does the rest of the money come from?

After a discussion, they decided to target the extortion at several wealthy families in the village.

After all, they didn't know the background of the rich families in the town and other villages, and it would be easy to hit a wall if they acted rashly against them. But it was different for the people in Baijia Village.

They know these familiar faces in Baijia Village very well. Even though they have moved to the town for several years, they still know exactly which family has what kind of connections, and there will never be any mistakes or omissions.

Gu Yongwen and others felt that only by dealing with such a well-known family could they avoid any unexpected situations and ensure the success of their extortion operation to the greatest extent possible.

Just as several elders in Gu Wenxuan's family judged Gu Yongwen's family, they are indeed very good at bullying at home.

In Gu Wenxuan's opinion, Gu Yongwen, who threatened them unscrupulously, was simply a person who had the word "stupid" written on his forehead.

Given the current situation, anyone who is a little smart is trying to find excuses and connections to steal through the door, and everyone wants to hide far away from the government office immediately.

Only stupid people like Gu Yongwen, who are blinded by greed but whose vision and knowledge are seriously unable to keep up with their ambitions, would deliver themselves to the door at such a sensitive moment.

They are so proud of themselves for taking the blame for others. They are so stupid that they deserve their bad luck.

Gu Wenxuan folded her arms and sneered, "Then I'll wait for you to make things difficult for my family. Now you can go away."

Bai Lizheng tried to smooth things over when he heard this, "Yongwen, you are an uncle after all, so don't bother with a child like Wenxuan. Of course, she does have a bad temper, but don't worry, I will let your second uncle and the others teach her a lesson after you leave."

Gu Yongwen was not blind, so how could he not see that Bai Lizheng was favoring Gu Wenxuan? He snorted coldly, "Uncle Lizheng, stop sugarcoating the situation. This little girl is talking back to me, and her parents and grandparents are silent. Can I still expect them to vent their anger on me after I'm gone? I've taken care of their family!"
