Chapter 64: Reaping the Benefits
Xiong Xingyun went to the Assassin's Mansion and handed over the name post. As the No. 2 person in the salt merchant of Jindi, he had never come to visit Peng Tingshi alone, and at this moment, in addition to anger, there was also a trace www.biquge.info of joy and excitement in his heart. On behalf of the entire Jindi Salt Merchant Group, when will it be Yin Chengye's turn when he is here?
About half a moment later, Master Wang came out of the mansion and said with a smile: "I said that the magpie was calling early this morning, and it turned out that Master Xiong was coming." ”
Xiong Xingyun was flattered, how could Master Wang ever be so polite to him?
Master Wang is the mouthpiece of the local tycoon in Peng Tingshi, and for him, he has gained enough benefits from overthrowing Yin Chengye. The salt merchants of Jindi should not be suppressed too much, and supporting a Xiong Xingyun is in line with the interests of Peng Tingshi and stabilizing the salt policy; Second, it is in his own interests, if there is no threat from the salt merchants of Jindi, how can the salt merchants of Yangzhou City be willing to take out more money to deal with him?
Master Wang and Xiong Xingyun joined hands and walked to the study together, saying as they walked: "Master Xiong, you don't know the difficulties of my master." Do you know what Yin Chengye did? ”
The sudden treatment had already made Xiong Xingyun dizzy, and he asked, "What's the matter?" ”
Master Wang sighed and said, "Do you know about the disappearance of a woman in Yangzhou?" ”
The case involved eight women, one of whom was Xiucai's daughter. Although the missing woman's family is not powerful, the missing woman is a young and beautiful person, and she has a good reputation among her neighbors. There are a large number of people, a wide range of influence, and there is a lot of uproar among the people, how can Xiong Xingyun not know?
However, after four years, the case has not been concluded, and the public is quite resentful. Xiong Xingyun was agitated and said, "Is it related to this case?" ”
Along the way, the two of them had reached the door of the study. Master Wang looked at him, smiled and nodded, motioned for him to go in, and said, "Master is waiting for you." ”
Xiong Xingyun bowed his hand and said, "Master Xie Wang mentioned it." He pulled out a purse and handed it over.
Master Wang quietly put the purse into his sleeve pocket and stepped aside.
Entering the study, seeing Peng Tingshi sitting behind the bookcase with a solemn face, Master Wang showed his mouth, Xiong Xingyun was worried in his heart, and Shi Dali said: "Grass people Xiong Xingyun, meet Master Thorn Shi." ”
Peng Tingshi looked expressionless with an "um" and said, "Coming?" Have a seat. ”
Xiong Xingyun got up when he heard this, but he didn't dare to sit down, and half of his buttocks hung outside to show respect.
In the past, when he saw Peng Tingshi, he was in the crowd on various social occasions, and Yin Chengye stepped forward to deal with it alone. Now in the study, Peng Tingshi, who is alone in charge of life and death, is intimidated by the official authority, and feels quite stressed, and the cold sweat of the bean is flowing down the forehead.
Where is this what those salt merchants think, and can they still ask Peng Tingshi for an explanation? An official is an official, and no matter how rich a businessman is, it is only the lowest business. On weekdays, these officials are just kind to them for the sake of the salt tax. Life and death are in the hands of others, where can you really treat yourself as a character? Xiong Xingyun figured out this section, and he didn't dare to breathe.
Peng Tingshi hung him for a long time, and when he saw that it was almost over, he said bitterly: "Eight women have been missing, and they have lasted for four years, and the people's grievances are boiling. As the parent official of Yangzhou City, I am derelict in my duty! Negligence! ”
"You say! Yin Chengye, should he die?! ”
When Xiong Xingyun heard this, he hurriedly fell to the ground and said, "Yes!" Should! Damn it indeed! ”
Peng Jianshi sat up straight and said coldly: "It has been ascertained that the disappearance of the eight women was all committed by Yin Chengye, and two of them have now died. He knocked the table a few times with his knuckles, and said, "Don't think I don't know your little movements, what do you want to do?!" Strike the salt transport for Yin Chengye? ”
Xiong Xingyun was sweating like pulp, he didn't expect this to be the case at all, Yin Chengye was completely looking for death by himself. I knew this was the case, so I wouldn't have come to this trip, and I was reprimanded in vain. Busy said: "The grass people should die, they have no such intention." ”
Seeing that the beating was almost done, Peng Tingshi softened his tone and said, "You get up and speak." It's good to know, go back and talk to your Jindi salt merchants. The official also wants to let Yin Chengye go, you go and ask, will the families of those women agree? ”
Xiong Xingyun stood up, wiped his sweat with his sleeve, and said in a loud voice: "The grass people understand, the grass people understand." ”
"If there is anything in the future, you can come to see me directly if you submit a name post in advance." This is to let Xiong Xingyun replace Yin Chengye and speak in front of the government on behalf of the Jindi Salt Merchants Group.
This is simply a pie flying from the sky, Xiong Xingyun was overjoyed, and hurriedly replied: "The grass people understand. Please rest assured that this matter will not affect the salt transportation. "Taking advantage of others to eliminate disasters for others, Yin Chengye's arrest, he must let no waves survive in order to keep the position he just obtained.
When Xiong Xingyun retreated, Peng Xuelin Zhi stroked the beard on his chest proudly. There are many benefits to this work.
During his tenure, he cracked the case of the missing woman who had accumulated for many years, which not only gained the support of the people but also made political achievements; Yin Chengye offended the eldest princess of Zhaoyang, since he died, he can please the eldest princess by asking him for the crime, Queen Cao is generous and benevolent, and has many important ministers in the court; Help a bear Xingyun to ascend to the top, stabilize the Jindi Salt Business Group, ensure the normal operation of the salt administration, and do not cause turmoil; Saving Lin Xunshi's son and selling him a favor, what is the officialdom most afraid of? I owe you a favor.
Thinking of this, Peng Xuelin just wanted to look up to the sky and smile, and after all, he was only unlucky Yin Chengye. Who is the woman who was taken captive? Oh, the former owner of Splendid Records, Miss Xu, this woman is really a blessing to me.
On the Lianghuai Patrol Salt History Mansion, Lin Taihong frowned, looked at the closed door, and asked Lin Jiabao's concubine Aunt Wang on the side: "Jiabao, does he still refuse to come out?" ”
Aunt Wang is a young woman in her twenties, dressed in a water-red dress with beaded hair. Twisting his body with a handkerchief, he said delicately: "Master, it has been like this since Master Li sent the family treasure back late yesterday night." ”
Lin Taihong remembered the situation last night, and his chest tightened.
At midnight last night, the top and bottom of the Lin Mansion had slept peacefully, and the door was bolted. The door sounded with a "bang" slamming sound. Menzi scolded and opened the door, but saw a master holding the embarrassed Lin Jiabao, busy reporting to the back house and waking up Lord Lin.
It is not the first time that Lin Jiabao has not returned home at night, but Lin Taihong is very relieved. His son, who is not a good entertainer outside?
This time, seeing that he was undressed and had a faint smell of urine on his body, he couldn't help but be angry and said, "Who did this?" ”
Master Li was upright by nature, and he was already dissatisfied with Lin Jiabao for not being able to punish him, and replied stiffly at the moment: "Lord Lin, your son is to blame." Of the eight women, six are alive and two are dead, all of which were created by the noble son. To be able to save his life is already an extrajudicial grace. ”
As a dignified history of two Huai patrolling salt, when did you receive such a nest? But he still couldn't have a seizure, but he was kind and kind of words, and he sent Master Li away with a few thorough manners.
