    ?

    The old cobbler obviously had a guilty conscience. He smiled at Xu Yishan with a salivating face, and begged: "Mayor Xu, I was taken advantage of by someone to do such a stupid thing. You don't remember villains, please forgive me once."

    Xu Yishan smiled and said: "Old Wang, you don't have to be so nervous. Since I invited you to come, I should ask you clearly. You said just now that someone ordered you to come. Who is this person? Why did you ask you to do this?"

    The old cobbler looked back to make sure no one was there, so he said in a low voice: "Mayor Xu, you don't know. Many people want you to leave Hongshan Town now. They say you are soft and hard, no  gregarious."

    Xu Yishan was taken aback, he thought to himself, why does he have such an image in other people's minds?

    "There is another saying" The old cobbler hesitated to speak.

    Xu Yishan encouraged him, "Old Wang, if you have anything to say, just say it."

    The old cobbler chuckled, and said, "They said, you are a prodigal. You blew up Hongqiao and dragged Hongshan Town into the quagmire. Now that you are building the bridge, you stand out and steal the pockets of the people. It's very bad."

    Xu Yishan couldn't laugh or cry, angry and angry.

    He thought, if he didn't blow up the bridge back then, Hongshan Town still exists today?  Originally, there were people who offered free assistance in building the bridge, but who refused the assistance and insisted on building it by themselves?  Build it yourself, who arranged for you to collect funds?

    All of this seems to be aimed at him.

    "Them you are talking about, who are you referring to?" Xu Yishan asked pretending not to care.

    The old cobbler smiled slyly, "I can't tell who it is. Anyway, it's rumored outside now."

    Xu Yishan knew that if he continued to ask, the old cobbler might not be able to tell all the beans from the bamboo tube.

    The old cobbler is a semi-human being, and he is very smooth in speaking and doing things.  This time he sent his family to the town government, there must be someone behind him to support him.

    Otherwise, with Duan Yanhua's way of doing things, the old cobbler would not dare to smooth Duan Yanhua's beard even if he lent him three guts.

    Duan Yanhua has always attached great importance to the image of cadres and the dignity of the government, and he will not tolerate any behavior of contempt and smearing.  For example, when Xu Yishan was spat with feces and urine by Wang Meng, Duan Yanhua was furious after hearing the words, and slapped the table to send Wang Meng to prison.

    So, who ordered the old cobbler to make trouble?

    Duan Yanhua was not at home, and the mayor Liu Wen basically checked the work in the village during this time.

    Xu Yishan originally wanted to scare the old cobbler, if the old cobbler was not afraid of scaring, he would be ruthless and send the old cobbler to the police station.  After all, what the old cobbler did caused the anger of God and man.

    Now that the old cobbler said something like this, Xu Yishan didn't want to make the old cobbler feel bad anymore.

    He wants to find out who is behind the scenes instigating him.

    No matter how he insinuated, the old cobbler gritted his teeth and did not reveal any useful information.

    But one thing Xu Yishan can be sure of is that this matter has nothing to do with Duan Yanhua.

    Sure enough, the old cobbler couldn't sit still after sitting for more than an hour.

    His eyeballs rolled around, and he tentatively asked Xu Yishan: "Mayor Xu, if there is nothing else, can I go?"

    Xu Yishan shook his head and said: "Old Wang, where are you going in a hurry? Sit down. I called Mengsuo just now, and Meng said that he has a few questions and wants to ask you to clarify the situation."

    When the old cobbler heard this, his expression changed immediately, and he said in a panic, "What did the police station want me for? I didn't break the law."

    Xu Yishan comforted him and said, "What are you afraid of if you haven't broken the law? You can rest assured to wait here, Mengsuo may take a while to arrive."

    Xu Yishan said that he called Meng Liang, which was completely unfounded.

    He wanted to use this to test the old cobbler, and sure enough, when the old cobbler heard that the police station was looking for him, he immediately showed a guilty conscience.

    Xu Yishan comforted him and put pressure on him at the same time. He pretended to be casual and said: "I heard that Wang Meng explained everything thoroughly in the office this time."

    The old cobbler asked cautiously: "What nonsense did my silly son say?"

    Xu Yishan smiled and said: "I didn't say anything else. It's probably some trivial matters in your family. Wang Meng chained Ali. I heard that there are many stories in it."

    The old cobbler panicked completely.

    He is not a person who knows nothing, on the contrary, he understands the stakes better than the average person.

    Take the matter between him and his daughter-in-law Ali as an example, it can be big or small.  To zoom in, he could be put on a lifelong hat of shame and go to jail.  Say small, this is a chore,Mostly it is the lack of morality.

    He obviously guessed Xu Yishan's mind, he tentatively asked: "Mayor Xu, if I tell you who asked me to come, can I go home?"

    Xu Yishan smiled uncertainly, he knew that for a cunning person like the old cobbler, the more you wanted to know, the more he would keep his mouth shut.  Even use this as a bargaining chip.

    The more Xu Yishan downplayed it, the more he felt uncertain.

    "Mayor Xu, I'm an old fool, so I shouldn't listen to him." The old cobbler said with a bitter face, "He said that as long as you leave Hongshan Town, nothing will happen."

    Xu Yishan remained silent, waiting for the old cobbler to reveal the answer.

    The old cobbler didn't intend to hide any more, he told Xu Yishan in a low voice that it was Hong Huang who asked him to bring his family to the government to make trouble.

    Hong Huang said that after Xu Yishan came to Hongshan Town, the business of his restaurant plummeted.  In the final analysis, it was all because of him, Xu Yishan.

    One day when Xu Yishan was around, he always felt uneasy.  Although Xu Yishan is just a small deputy mayor, Hong Huang always feels that Xu Yishan is like a mirror, like a sharp sword, which can shine through his soul and cut off his desire for profit.

    When the old cobbler said this, Xu Yishan was a little puzzled.

    He has been unpopular since he took office.  Hong Shanzhen ate and drank at Hongshan Restaurant, and he never expressed any words.

    Although because of Chunhua's sister-in-law's fried dough stick stand, he had friction with Honghuang's younger brother, but this did not affect his Honghuang's status in Hongshan Town.

    Street vendors, the money that should be paid is still being paid.  Hong Huang's younger brother was still walking sideways on Hongshan Street.

    Hong Huang told the old cobbler that a day when Xu Yishan was in Hongshan Town was a day when everyone had nightmares.  He frightened the old cobbler, judging from what Wang Meng committed, he might spend his whole life in prison.

    The old cobbler is not worried about where his son will spend the rest of his life, he is thinking about when Ali will come home.

    The old cobbler had a good reason. Ali left behind two children who needed someone to take care of them.

    Xu Yishan looked at the old cobbler fidgeting, and thought to himself, he knew what he should know, and he didn't care about cleaning up the old cobbler for a while.  So he said to the old cobbler, "Old Wang, take the man back, and don't be confused again. Once you get confused, you will suffer."

    The old cobbler nodded hurriedly, smiling obsequiously.

    After waiting for Xu Yishan to let him leave, he ran downstairs like a rabbit, called his family to the car, and ran away in a hurry.

    Bai Yu came in, put up a thumbs up and praised: "Mayor Xu, you are really good, you can convince the old leather craftsman in just a few words."

    Xu Yishan smiled and said, "It's not that I can speak, but that I speak the truth."

    Having said that, he felt in his heart that a storm was coming.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
