The Wang family watched Wang Dahai lie with his eyes open, and watched a group of people from Ling Village, who looked the same whether they were wearing masks or not, return with bags full of treasures, like bandits.
But now they have no time to be sad.
After Wang Dahai and his men left, they began to crawl and count their belongings.
Then……
The entire Wang family was filled with mournful cries: "These damned ones, they even took away the private money I hid in my rotten shoes."
"It's gone, it's gone, it's all gone..."
"Are these people's noses made of dogs? How come they can find me wherever I hide?"
"What should I do..."
The core members of the Wang family, who had remained relatively calm at the time, were so angry that their lips turned purple after hearing another piece of news: "Even our Wang family's secret granary was robbed?"
"How did they know the location of the granary?"
"Conspiracy, absolutely a conspiracy!"
"Wang Dahai and those idiot descendants of convicts can't possibly accomplish anything. There must be someone behind this. Could it be... the work of the other three families?"
Another core member of the Wang family slammed the table angrily: "Although they only robbed a granary, this is a disgrace to our Wang family. This is a slap in the face of our Wang family."
"Send someone immediately to find out what happened today."
"Also, are all the spies we planted in the other three families dead? Why haven't they sent back any information?"
"Reassign people to closely monitor the movements of the other three families... and the Ye family."
"The people of the Ye family are indeed not simple..." The third core member of the Wang family narrowed his eyes and began to ponder.
Ye Fei was slightly surprised when he got the news.
When Wang Dahai went out, she guessed that Wang Dahai would do something to the Wang family, but she didn't expect that Wang Dahai not only beat Wang Hao, but also brought so many people to rob the Wang family.
"Hehehe..." Wang Dahai looked at Ye Fei's surprised expression and smiled shyly, but in fact, it looked very vulgar to outsiders: "Master, I just want to teach them a lesson."
"So that they won't be so ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth and dare to target you, Master."
"But don't worry, Master. We put on the masks and didn't reveal our identities."
"Even if the Wang family guessed it, they don't have direct evidence, so they can't do anything to us. After all, there are too many people involved."
The skinny dog and the skinny cat curled their lips at Wang Dahai's smug look, but they didn't choke in the end.
Ye Fei no longer paid much attention to the Wang family's affairs because she was very busy buying fields, land, and hills, and designing and planning the address and decoration of the new house.
Skinny Dog, Skinny Cat, and Wang Dahai are also very busy.
Many people in Ling Village became busy because they received work assigned by Shougou.
About a week later, the people of Ling Village heard another piece of shocking news: the Wang family was arrested.
"Master, Master, have you heard the news? Something happened to the Wang family." Wang Dahai ran over breathlessly.
"It seems that things are going to change in Ling Village..." Ye Qingyun muttered after hearing the news.
"Hasn't Ling Village changed a long time ago?" Lin Xue'e patted Ye Qingyun coquettishly: "Zheng Nantian's arrest doesn't count as a change."
Ye Fei explained with a smile: "Zheng Nantian's arrest is indeed a change of circumstances, but for the people of Ling Village, the four major families are the ones who directly govern them."
"The arrest of the Wang family means that the original balance of the four major families will be broken."
Wang Dahai's eyes suddenly glowed green. "Isn't this our...Master's chance?"
"What opportunity?" Lin Xue'e looked at Wang Dahai with a puzzled look. "I know you have a lot of tricks up your sleeve, but don't do anything rash."
At this moment, the skinny dog and the skinny cat also came back.
They opened their mouths to speak, but were interrupted by Wang Dahai in a sly tone: "I've already told Master and the others about the Wang family. You don't need to say anything more."
The skinny dog and skinny cat sneered, "That's all you know about the Wang family."
Wang Dahai looked at him with some surprise and some caution: "What do you mean? Is there something else?"
"Impossible, I'm definitely more informed than you."
"If there's something else, there's no way I don't know."
Wang Dahai didn't believe that Shougou and Shoumao, two outsiders who had just arrived in Ling Village, would have better means to understand the inside story than him.
"Tsk... You're so anxious to make a contribution that you came here without even hearing the news?"
Skinny Dog rolled his eyes, then looked at Ye Fei and continued, "Miss, not only the Wang family was arrested, but also people from the other three families."
"The core members of the Hu and Liu families haven't been arrested, so the problem shouldn't be too serious."
"Although a core member of the Li family was arrested, at most their vitality was damaged, and the family will not be destroyed."
"I'm afraid the Wang family won't be able to survive this. They were dragged into this by Zheng Nantian's affairs, and Zheng Nantian was dragged into this by Zheng Xian, the county magistrate's advisor."
"There's a factional struggle involved here."
What Shougou said made sense and hit the key points. Wang Dahai could only stare blankly at the side.
Ye Fei thought about it and said a few words: "When something happens to the Wang family, the monkeys will scatter when the tree falls. Their power will definitely be divided up by other people in Ling Village."
"Wang Dahai, seize the opportunity and establish our own power in Ling Village."
"Skinny Dog and Skinny Cat, you two will continue to be responsible for purchasing land and building a new house."
When they nodded and were about to walk out, they ran into several yamen runners from the county government office.
