Young Master Gao? Call me Little Grand Secretary!

"Young Master, something terrible has happened!" Fu An rushed over, but was blocked by Gao Yi, who was standing in front of the courtyard gate.

"Brother Gao Yi, stop messing around!" Fu An said anxiously, reaching out to pull Gao Yi away.

Gao Yi, however, stood firm, head held high, blocking Fu An's path and refusing to budge an inch. "Who's arguing with you! The young master is busy with important matters and is not receiving guests right now!"

"No! I really have an urgent matter!" Seeing that he was unyielding, Fu An hurriedly said, "Get out of the way! You can't afford to be delayed if you do!"

"Ha!" Gao Yi sneered, disdainfully saying, "What important matter could you possibly have? Before you speak, consider your own status. What kind of important matter could the young master possibly entrust to you?"

"You..." Fu An was furious but helpless, and could only glare at him, saying, "This concerns five thousand strings of cash, it's not child's play. If things go wrong, you can't afford the consequences! If you know what's good for you, go and inform them now, and I won't hold it against you!"

Seeing that his expression was not conducive to action, Gao Yi couldn't help but feel worried. However, the young master was at a crucial moment, and if he interrupted him, he was afraid that he would also suffer the consequences.

But if he fails to report it and something serious is delayed, he will inevitably be held accountable!

He was now in a dilemma, caught between a rock and a hard place. Just as he was struggling with this, he suddenly heard familiar footsteps behind him.

Gao Yi straightened his back and shouted loudly, "A mere five thousand strings of cash might be an astronomical sum for you, but in front of my son, it's nothing but a drop in the ocean!"

"Even if things go wrong, so what? It doesn't matter, the young master will take care of it anyway!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than Gao Zhao walked over, buttoning his clothes, and kicked Gao Yi in the backside, yelling, "You're always so cocky! How many times have I told you to keep a low profile and stop praising yourself? Don't you know that I, the young master, am pleased to hear criticism?!"

Gao Yi stumbled from the kick, quickly stood up, and said with a forced smile, "Young master, you're making things difficult for me. You haven't done anything wrong at all, how am I supposed to find out!"

"How dare you talk back!" Gao Zhao roared in fury, pulling out a money pouch and throwing it at him. "Get lost, don't get in my way!"

Gao Yi, holding the money bag, ran out with a big smile on his face!

Gao Zhao then turned to look at Fu An and said calmly, "How did things go? I heard you shouting from afar, did something go wrong?"

Fu An was looking at Gao Yi with envy when he heard this. He quickly snapped out of his reverie and lowered his voice, saying, "Gao Yi, something really went wrong. That old bastard Wang Hua went to find someone else again!"

"Hmm?" Gao Zhao frowned slightly and turned to walk into the courtyard. This surprised him. If Wang Hua really could find someone to help, wouldn't he have already done so?

Why bother dealing with Fu An for so long! Things seem to be getting interesting!

Fu An followed closely behind, half a step behind, and said as he walked, "That old guy is treacherous and goes back on his word. What was agreed upon yesterday has suddenly changed today. Fortunately, I specifically asked two brothers to keep an eye on him a couple of days ago, and that's how I found out that he has found someone else to help him."

"Who did you find?" Gao Zhao remained completely calm, his tone laced with sarcasm. "I'd like to see who dares to steal my business!"

Fu An looked around and lowered his voice, saying, "Speaking of which, the young master knows this man; he is none other than your maternal uncle, Guo Weize!"

"Oh?" Gao Zhao paused, raising an eyebrow in surprise. "So Guo Weize agreed?"

"Yesterday, the man who was watching Wang Hua's brother said he walked out of the Guo family's house with a smile, but today he's eagerly coming to me to cancel the agreement. This must mean he's agreed!"

Fu An had witnessed the power struggle between Gao Zhao and Guo Weize, uncle and nephew, at Fanlou that day, and knew they were irreconcilable enemies. He said, "Young Master, Wang Hua's actions were somewhat unethical. I think we should teach him a lesson and save face for the Guo family!"

"What's the use?" Gao Zhao shook his head, rejecting the wealthy man's suggestion, and calmly said, "Wang Hua is just a nobody. If I deal with him personally, not only will I not show my power, but people will think I'm desperate and can only bully others and take my anger out on him. This will only make me a laughingstock."

"What does the young master mean?"

"Of course, we should take direct action against Guo Weize! As long as we suppress his arrogance, Wang Hua will naturally behave himself."

Gao Zhao smiled slightly, looking confident and said casually, "When Wang Hua comes to ask again, you can raise the price for him."

Fu An hurriedly replied, "The Wang family's mansion is quite large, located outside Fengqiu Gate near the inner city. It's in a good location, and the price is high; it must be at least seven or eight thousand strings of cash!"

"Hmm? Outside Fengqiu Gate?" Gao Zhao's eyes lit up. Lin Chong's family lived over there too. What a coincidence!

Wang Qing might even know Lin Chong, but given that lecherous nature of his, how could he not be tempted if he saw his sister-in-law? After all, himself... that's not important!

After a moment's thought, Gao Zhao understood the reason. Although Lin Chong was obsequious in front of him, it didn't mean he acted the same way in front of others!

If Wang Qing dared to have such thoughts, he would probably be beaten to death!

Yes, that makes sense, and it's very much in line with Lin Chong's style!

Haha... This house should rightfully belong to me!

Gao Zhao immediately gave instructions: "Don't let Wang Hua buy the house again. Have him send the deed directly to us, so it won't be too much trouble for him!"

"Young master is so righteous!" Fu An blinked, feeling it was a bit outrageous. This matter was still far from being settled, and he was already eyeing the other party's house!

"Young Master, what should we do about this? If we delay any longer, things might get complicated!"

Gao Zhao's expression turned serious as he said, "The nation has its own laws and regulations, and the Kaifeng Prefecture has its own methods for handling cases. How can we allow others to interfere?"

Fu An was completely bewildered, not knowing what Gao Zhao was up to, and just stared intently at his face.

"This Guo Weize, for his own selfish gain, has used his family's power to interfere with the Kaifeng Prefecture's handling of the case, damaging the dignity of the laws of our Great Song Dynasty. This matter is absolutely unacceptable!"

Gao Zhao, his face radiating righteous indignation, declared with unwavering conviction: "Such illegal and disorderly conduct is absolutely unacceptable! Fu An, go to the Censorate and report him!"

"Huh?" Fu An was dumbfounded. Was this really such a simple way to deal with it?

"No, young master, I am but a lowly person with little influence. I'm afraid no one in the Censorate will listen to me!"

"Don't worry, I have connections in the Censorate!" Gao Zhao patted Fu An on the shoulder, confidently stating, "Once you get to the Censorate, just tell him you're looking for Censor Huang Baoguang, and then tell him about this!"

Fu An was taken aback, his eyes filled with admiration. This young master was indeed incredibly resourceful, even knowing people from the Censorate. He immediately agreed and turned to leave.

"Wait!" Gao Zhao called out to him again as he watched his retreating figure.

Fu An turned around blankly, only to hear Gao Zhao say, "After you go to the Censorate, don't report Guo Weize, report my master directly!"

"Huh?" Fu An's eyes widened in disbelief. This is serious, they're even going to sue their own father!
