It's really hard to just farm peacefully.

Chapter 325

"Why are you here at this time?" A small crack appeared in the side door of the Hao Mansion, and Manager Hao San carefully poked his head out from it.

"I'm here to deliver the goods." Jiang Yan handed over the bamboo basket in his hand. "By the way, I want to ask you about what happened two days ago."

"Those people from your village are working in Fu Mansion. Why are you asking me?"

"We went looking for them, but the guards at the gate told us not to move around for the next few days and told us to leave immediately. That's why we had to ask you for help. Manager Hao, you're more informed than we are. Please help us and tell us what you can."

Manager Hao San hesitated for a moment: "Okay, but don't say it was me who said it."

"Actually, there wasn't any major disturbance. It was just a bunch of brainless, angry people who were coaxed into looking for trouble with Fu Mansion and the county magistrate. They even brought hoes and hatchets. But the situation only lasted two days before they were persuaded to disperse.

As long as those people from your village stay in the mansion obediently, they shouldn't get hurt."

"That's great." Jiang Yan and Jiang Hu both relaxed.

When they approached Fu's mansion, they could see obvious signs of dirt, damage and fire on the courtyard wall. They could not find out anything from the guards and were very worried.

Manager Hao San then advised, "You can disperse, but there have been many casualties. The county may not be at peace right now. Listen to me and return to the village quickly. Don't come here for the next few days, and don't wander around to other villages. Stay alert."

Jiang Yan lowered her voice and asked, "Is someone behind this?"

Manager Hao San sighed and said, "It's hard to say."

"Then the county...will be fine, right?"

"Who knows? Staying at home can help you avoid being affected."

……

The shock in Rongcheng County goes far beyond this, but Dongshan Village can only get a glimpse of what is happening in the county at present - several wealthy families from outside the county have had their homes raided.

Because Jiang Yan had a relatively rich knowledge reserve, he quickly pieced together some of the plot on his own, and went to verify it when Jiang He and Jiang Ju returned to the village to rest after many days.

"Do those people want to overthrow the Fu family, and then..." Jiang Yan gestured at his neck, "they want to be the boss?"

Jiang Ju's eyes widened. "How could you possibly think that? Those villains don't even dare to show their faces. How could they possibly defeat us? They just don't want to give back the extra land they've taken, so they forced those poor people to come to the county to cause trouble!"

"Jiang Ju, keep your voice down." Jiang He reminded in a low voice.

It's something to do with land... Jiang Yan recalled something and propped up his head as he said, "Those wealthy newcomers were really bold. Not only did they play tricks on the former bandits, but when they were found, not only did they refuse to pay, they also wanted to teach them a lesson."

Jiang Yan said the word "bandit" vaguely and quietly.

"Indeed." Jiang Ju also felt so. "But the people they coaxed here are not very capable. They captured the leader and then left him hanging. It didn't take long for them to get scared."

"Are you really scared?" Jiang Yan inexplicably felt that the situation in Rongcheng County was not that simple.

Would those families who were able to escape from several disasters and preserve their financial resources think of moving to Rongcheng County, which had just suffered a disaster and was not wealthy before?

If you are optimistic about the potential of the Fuji family, why are you specifically going against it?

Last year, they followed the Fu family and released news about grain on credit. On the surface, the amount of grain on credit was large, and the "interest" they needed to repay was less than that of the Fu family. However, the conditions they secretly set were very harsh. For example, they needed to mortgage land. If the grain could not be repaid within a certain period of time, they would use the mortgaged land to repay.

Jiang Yan only found out about this when she went to a slightly remote village with Jiang Shun and Jiang Qi to sell Fenggu cars. Although she felt that there was a trap at the time, she really couldn't believe that the "certain time" would be only a short year.

But if they were targeting the Fu family, how could they cause such a small commotion and even get their own family involved?
