Sure enough, Tang Wannian came according to his script, and Cheng Tong and Xiao Jiangbei, who had been prepared for a long time, arrested the criminals who set fire to Cheng Tong's house and destroyed the evidence in one fell swoop. But of course they will not be satisfied with this, those unlucky people were secretly imprisoned, but this mile Tong took the Sword of Heaven and Xiao Jiangbei into the Governor's Mansion in the name of "searching and arresting prisoners".

What else is there to say about this result? The palatial Governor's Mansion is like a locust plague of crops, no, it is worse than the crops that have been plagued by locusts, you must know that these soldiers around Xiao Jiangbei have followed him to plunder countless times in Northern Hungary, and it can be said that they are the best experts in copying homes, only walked around, and there was nothing of value left in the Governor's Palace, and even a few fake antiques placed on the Bogu shelf were not let go, in Langning's words: There are a few catties of brass anyway, and if it is counted as copper coins, there are also one or two through.

Of course, this kind of behavior similar to raiding the house happened after the discovery of the underground vault, and it was impossible for Cheng Tong not to leave a way out for himself. Fortunately, Tang Wannian was caught off guard this time, especially now that the General Military Mansion is completely in the hands of Xiao Jiangbei, in a hurry, he couldn't even rebel against those Tang soldiers who followed him with iron hearts.

Gu Qiluo listened to it with relish, and forced Xiao Jiangbei to tell her all the things that were copied out. Xiao Jiangbei doesn't look like an expert in robbery, and his memory is good, but he really doesn't care much about this, otherwise the treasures he robbed of Northern Hungary would not be piled up in the warehouse casually, or after Gu Qiluo got married, he found a proper place for these priceless treasures.

Therefore, under the gaze of his wife's sparkling gaze. Second Master Xiao thought hard about it, and finally said a dozen things, and finally wiped his forehead. smiled helplessly: "Qiluo, why do you even care about this?" This is different from what I robbed in Northern Hungary, I took the soldiers to Northern Hungary to rob, which was specially approved by the emperor, and in order to encourage the soldiers to go deep into Northern Hungary, I had to move people's hearts with money. But all the things in Tang Wannian's house must be brought back to the capital to confiscate the treasury......"

Without waiting to finish speaking, he heard Gu Qiluo smile and said, "I naturally know this." You think I'm going to be greedy for these things? You're underestimating me too much. However, I am a businessman, so naturally I am interested in these gold, silver, jewelry, antique calligraphy and paintings, it is just a hobby. ”

After speaking, he listened to the spring rain next to him and said: "That's all." The slave only admired Master Cheng's methods, and after seeing him in the Beifeng Mountain Gold Mine before, she slacked off, eating, drinking, and having fun all day long, and even had occasional contact with Tang Wannian. The slave maid thought that he wanted to soak mushrooms in Liaodong. Who knew that he had other plans, this time it was really like a thunderbolt from the sky, and Tang Wannian was caught off guard, Master Cheng was really amazing. ”

"He is commanded by holy order, how dare he delay time?" Xiao Jiangbei shook his head and smiled, secretly saying that she was a little girl and had no knowledge. Suddenly, Gu Qiluo smiled and said, "Speaking of which, Cheng Tong can be regarded as a sword that has gone off the rails." Other Qincha investigation cases will inevitably peel off the cocoon. Gather a qiē clue, and wait until everything is ready, and then you can achieve it in one fell swoop. He is good, he used a flashback technique, first find a way to copy out Tang Wannian's family background, as you said, 100,000 taels of gold can take the life of the old man, not to mention 6 million taels, this time, I am afraid that Tang Wannian himself will be discouraged, what Cheng Tong wants to try can't come out? ”

Xiao Jiangbei smiled: "That's right. I heard that when he was a magistrate, he didn't play according to the rules, but he often received miraculous results. Tang Wannian is cautious by nature and cunning, and now that he meets him, he can be regarded as having fallen for eight lifetimes, otherwise if someone else is a messenger, how can he be vain and wronged for a while, and he may not even be able to find anything, so he will return with a feather, fortunately, the emperor sent Cheng Tong with a bad stomach. ”

The husband and wife laughed and discussed, and finally Gu Qiluo said with emotion: "We are just happy to bring down Tang Wannian, it is not the happiest, the happiest person should be Zhong Chunfeng, this guy has always been jealous and hateful, and now a big corrupt official in Liaodong has fallen, and the guy he is afraid of like a snake and scorpion is about to return to Beijing to resume his life, and he can no longer pester him, how happy do you say he should be?" ”

When the words fell, I heard Xinghua smile and said, "Isn't it?" Brother Zhong was overjoyed, just now the slave heard him shouting in the courtyard, and forced Brother Zeng to go with him to buy firecrackers, saying that he would put a whip for the people of Liaodong to celebrate the fall of Tang Wannian. ”

Xiao Jiangbei and Gu Qiluo couldn't help laughing, Gu Qiluo shook his head and said: "He is really good at finding a reason, what else can he celebrate for the people of Liaodong, it sounds magnificent." Cut, who doesn't know that he just wants to celebrate for himself. Well, that's it, I hope his wish comes true, but don't let this whip go in vain. ”

"Kira, you're crow's mouth." Xiao Jiangbei looked at his wife with a smile and pointed out the facts without fear of death.

"Ahh Gu Qiluo hurriedly covered his mouth, and then said angrily: "I just said it casually, and it won't come true, how can it be considered a crow's mouth?" It doesn't count, it doesn't count ”

*******************

After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the atmosphere of the New Year is much lighter, the shops of Shanchun Mansion have chosen an auspicious day to open, and the people who go to work are also in good spirits to start the work of the new year, at the beginning of the new year, Vientiane is renewed, this is really not false, the streets and alleys are full of a "new year and new atmosphere" vigorous.

Gu Qiluo also began to work with Zeng Yuan to arrange the northern trade route, although she now has not much silver on hand, but she has already set aside the money to lay the foundation for the trade line, so it does not seem to be stretched, and now the first thing is to establish the medicine house of Xiao Gu Group at the foot of Beifeng Mountain. The presiding medicine village is naturally Ying Feihong, which is not only a pharmacy that sells medicines, but also includes collecting medicines, concocting medicinal materials, making medicines, etc., which is a comprehensive large medicine warehouse and wholesale base.

Zeng Yuan arranged for the immigrants he brought back to Guannai, together with the Jurchens and the people drawn from various ethnic tribes, and some of them were specifically responsible for clearing the wasteland; The other part was scattered to the various granges that Gu Qiluo had bought before, and farmed the land with the original tenants of those granges. During this period, Zeng Yuan went down to the south of the Yangtze River again, and this time he finally brought back the corn and sweet potato seeds that Gu Qiluo specially asked Wang Yue'er to look for, which made Gu Qiluo overjoyed, but unfortunately there were not many seeds, even if she wanted to plant a large area, she couldn't do it, so she had to find the most fertile soil, about more than 200 acres, for planting corn and sweet potatoes.

In this way, the original two tenants were not happy, after all, this is something that has not been planted, the owner said that it was a drought and flood to ensure the harvest, but who has seen it with their own eyes? Who to cry in case the harvest is bad? In the end, Zeng Yuan was in charge, only saying that no matter what the harvest was, he would compensate the two tenants so that he could make a worry-free livelihood, which made the two tenants enthusiastic again.

These are the two most important major events, as for the capital to Liaodong carriage and horse dealers, restaurants, shops, inns, etc., but now it is only a small fight, it is conceivable that with the gradual abundance of manpower, medicine depot and land output interests, these industries will have a leap in the future.

There is no need to talk about the rest of the affairs, big and small, but at this busy season, two people have become idlers.

One is Xiao Jiangbei, who was originally ordered to be in danger for the increasingly tense Liaodong form, and was sent by the emperor to deter all ethnic groups. Who knew that after this, all the tribes began to wait and see, and then before there was any action, Gu Qiluo became a fortune lady again, and even took this opportunity to reach an agreement with those leaders. Just three days after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, in front of Cheng Tong, those leaders had signed an agreement with Gu Qiluo, including providing Xiao Gu Villa with various goods such as medicinal materials, furs, tiger bones, animal meat, etc., and allocating some manpower to follow Gu Qiluo's people to learn how to open up wasteland and farm, women and children can go to work in factories in the future, or help in various businesses, in short, there are many terms. Let those leaders be overjoyed, now that the tribes, from the leaders to the people, are all focused on the bright future, who will not open their eyes to find the stubble of the government? Even if there is one or two frictions, most of them are for Gu Qiluo's face and swallow their anger, so since the Chinese New Year, everywhere has been very peaceful, so that he, the general soldier, has nothing to do except train soldiers every day.

The other idle person is Cheng Tong. The excerpt of Tang Wannian was jointly signed by him and Xiao Jiangbei, and a total of the top ten crimes of the other party were listed, and all of them were conclusive. Three days ago, it had been handed over to the post station for 800 miles and sent to the capital urgently. The rest is waiting for the emperor's holy order.

However, this made Xiao Jiangbei very puzzled, others did not know the rules and regulations of the imperial court, but he was clear. Because on this day, when Gu Qiluo and Zhong Chunfeng Ying Feihong went to the foot of Beifeng Mountain to see the progress of Xiao Gu Yaozhuang's project, he did not accompany his wife for the first time, but found Cheng Tong to come over, and asked straight to the point: "Your purpose of coming to Liaodong has been achieved, why don't you leave for Beijing yet?" ”

Cheng Tong seemed to have expected him to ask this question a long time ago, because he smiled slowly: "Didn't the excerpt just send it out three days ago?" Naturally, I will wait for the emperor's holy order to be issued before I act according to the emperor's order. ”

Xiao Jiangbei said lightly: "You are going to bluff others with this." I know very well that you are only inspecting Liaodong this time, Tang Wannian has already surrendered to the law, you should take him and the property obtained from the raid back to the capital to return to the capital, and you don't have to wait for any holy order, what is going on? ”

"Don't ask me, this is what the emperor meant, that's what his old man ordered when I came out." Cheng Tong was still smiling leisurely. However, Xiao Jiangbei was skeptical of this: What does the emperor mean? Why did the emperor suddenly change his statutes? Maybe this is indeed the emperor's intention, but if you want to say that there is no Cheng Tong in this, he will not believe it. (To be continued......)
