When Jiang Wu heard Secretary Zhang say that he was really a government employee, he actually flinched. Judging from Secretary Zhang's tone, he must have some background, otherwise why wouldn't he be nervous when hearing about the parents' official?
After all, it is not convenient to make these activities of the Jiang family public.
Jiang Wu said vaguely: "I have no grievances. If there are any grievances, they are the grievances of the common people!"
A group of people said excitedly: "Yes! We have been wronged! Who are you? Can you redress our grievances?"
The people talked one after another, and Secretary Zhang finally figured out that these people were panicking and anxious because the fairy spring had stopped spraying water. Under the instigation of some people, they became unreasonably suspicious of the local leaders.
Jiang Wu took advantage of the chaos and slipped away quietly.
Secretary Zhang took a lot of effort to persuade everyone to calm down.
After going down the mountain, Secretary Zhang took the initiative to investigate the problems of the local county magistrate.
Soon, a document about Cuiping Mountain Fairy Spring and the recent county governors, secretaries and others appeared on Lufeng's famous table.
"So, the sale of this fairy spring water is nominally Cuiping County's business, but in reality, it's the County Governor or the Secretary who secretly splits the profits with the Jiang family? Then what ability does the Jiang family have to share this money with them?"
"Could it be that this fairy spring water was provided by the Jiang family?"
Lu Fengming turned to the page about the latest county magistrate. "I promoted Hu Jinsheng. Ask him to come over and tell me the whole truth!"
When Hu Jinsheng learned that the governor was coming, he ran away in a hurry.
Hu Jinsheng breathed a sigh of relief when he learned the purpose of Governor Lu's visit.
"Governor, you don't know this. The Jiang family sends a few people to guard the so-called fairy spring every day, and no one knows how much spring water they sell. Moreover, I have checked the county's financial records and found no such income. I once had someone secretly search the land and found that they could easily earn a few hundred yuan a day! This is no small amount! But there is no trace of it in the accounts!"
"So you're changing your previous cooperation model and only paying them wages? Then do you know what the Jiang family relies on? Why did they get half of the money in the past?"
"I do know a little bit. The Jiang family has a very good fortune teller. Whenever the county magistrate or secretary came here, the Jiang family would find someone to introduce them. They seem to be quite capable and they could scare them away."
Lu Fengming was silent for a moment, then spoke again: "When you came here, did anyone introduce you to someone? Are their fortune-telling services accurate?"
Hu Jinsheng smiled and said, "I firmly believe in scientific principles. I didn't go to a fortune teller!"
Lu Fengming nodded: "That's right. But do you know that there is not a single drop of water left in that fairy spring now?"
Hu Jinsheng was dumbfounded: "How is that possible?"
Therefore, the Jiang family relies not only on fortune-telling, but also on this magical spring.
Lu Fengming thought of Daqing Mountain. He heard from Lu Fengshou that Daqing Mountain is still the same as before, with spring all year round, the fragrance of fruits and vegetables, and the fresh air in the forest. People who stay there can have a clear mind and feel relaxed.
The most crucial element is the enclosed spring. Canned food made from that spring's water is exported overseas. Lu Fengming was lucky enough to have tasted it, and he suspects the water is no less potent than the fairy spring at Cuiping Mountain.
He opened the investigation files of the Jiang family.
Daqingshan.
After Lufeng was taken back, he went straight to Wangjia Village.
"These are what Fengming asked me to bring to you. Take a look at them. If you need anything else, just ask him!"
Jiaojiao looked through some basic information about the Jiang family.
A family of divination, whose heads have all been women. They live in Cuiping Mountain and are suspected to be able to control the fairy spring.
Putting all the things together, Jiaojiao recalled the past.
The Feng family once had a rival named Jiang. Legend has it that long ago, the Feng and Jiang families were from the same clan. But as time passed, by the time of Jiaojiao's generation, the two families had taken different paths.
The Jiang family focuses on making friends with the powerful, while the Feng family is more inclined towards the common people.
As a result, the Feng and Jiang families belonged to different factions. The Feng family was assigned to the Crown Prince by the Emperor, while the Jiang family secretly colluded with the Third Prince at some point.
The Third Prince and the Crown Prince appear to have a very good relationship, but in reality he secretly tries every possible means to trip up the Crown Prince.
