Chapter 87: The City

For the few people who were called later, Hu Jiuling did not call them all in at once, but according to the details revealed by the chief steward, he first called a person with the least suspicion to come in.

"I heard that during the Chinese New Year, you and the steward of the Shen family's silk village drank in Yunlai Building, and they had a good conversation?"

One sentence scared him so much that he lost his soul, and even coaxed and deceived, the steward quickly told him about the wrong things he had done over the years, and even drank and played pai gow with the porter on the dock in the middle of the night. In line with the mentality that the law does not blame the public, in order to reduce his own guilt, under the intentional inducement of Hu Jiuling, he even added fuel and vinegar and told the two people outside the door what they had done.

Then Hu Jiuling concocted the same method, and he did not bluff, but said what he knew. Jiang is still old and spicy, and after so many years of business and sitting down, he is well versed in language arts. The same thing came out of his mouth, but in a reversed order, with certain key words, and then accentuated at the critical moment. Obviously eating and drinking, usually meeting on the dock and saying a few words and other ordinary things, in the ears of the steward who originally had a ghost in his heart, that is, the master already knew a qiē.

Now that they know it, let's do it honestly.

After all three of them confessed, some of the dark things on the dock were basically all about. Coupled with the overall situation just mentioned by the big shopkeeper, the situation of the entire dock from top to bottom, from light to dark, has been basically clear.

The situation was much better than he thought, and Hu Jiuling breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Although you have confessed, right is right, wrong is wrong, and even if you confess, you cannot cover all your sins."

Looking at the quail-like three people in front of him, Hu Jiuling announced the punishment on the spot. The steward, who was closest to the Shen family, was thrown out after taking all the income of the Hu family over the years; The remaining two people are not too strict in their mistakes, and after resigning from the steward position, they are assigned to work as porters, even if they have a light and heavy work, how to end up depends on the wrong things they have done in their daily lives.

The steward who had been thrown out fell to his knees on the ground, his hand grasping the floor with bruised tendons and tears streaming down his face. has been busy for most of his life, but in the end, the bamboo basket is empty. He regretted it so much, he shouldn't have been bought by the Shen family in the first place, betrayed the Hu family for that little profit, and finally lost the watermelon and picked up the sesame seeds.

The other two stewards were concerned, and quickly took off their silk shirts, and went bare-chested with the rest of the porters to carry charcoal in the cabin, trying to make a good impression in front of the master and the girl.

Killing chickens and monkeys, witnessing the fate of the three of them, everyone else on the dock tightened their skins and worked harder.

Outside was busy carrying charcoal, and in the slightly simple room on the dock, Hu Jiuling asked Ah Yao: "What have you learned?" ”

"You have to be skillful in asking people." Ah Yao looked at Daddy with bright eyes.

Looked at by her daughter's adoring gaze, Hu Jiuling didn't mention how ironing she was. Even that wolf cub also wanted to rob him of his position in Ah Yao's heart, and sure enough, Ah Yao still liked him as a father.

Even so, he didn't ignore the teachings to Ah Yao, "What else? ”

And also? Ah Yao grabbed her head, puzzled.

"Daddy was obviously telling the truth just now, and nothing is fictional, but just changed the way he interrogated, and the same thing seems to be different."

"That's right," Hu Jiuling nodded, "I'm telling the truth, and I don't deceive them in any way." In the question just now, how to speak is secondary, and telling the truth is the key. Ah Yao, you have to remember that the reason why my Hu family has been able to stand in Qingcheng for a hundred years, from an ordinary silkworm farmer to a silk merchant who has no worries about food and clothing, is to rely on the word 'integrity', 'sincerity' is to treat people sincerely, and 'trust' is to do business with reputation. Only these two points can we talk about other things. ”

Integrity? Ah Yao nodded as if she didn't understand.

"Are you still wondering about the Shen family?"

"Yes, Daddy, you also know about the things in the previous life, obviously Shen Moci deceived so many people, but in the end, she was still a beautiful maid with fine clothes and fine clothes, and she was a good person."

Hu Jiuling choked.

In fact, after listening to Ah Yao talk about the things in his previous life, he also faintly sighed, the world is unfair, good people don't live long, and disasters will be left for thousands of years. It is true that there are descendants who say that it is unfair, but no matter how bad Shen Moci's reputation is after her death, she has always enjoyed the glory of the world when she is alive, and the glory and wealth she has enjoyed are immortal days that ordinary people can't even imagine.

"Maybe it's because she's doing so well that Heavenly Dao makes up for your rebirth this time."

For a long time, Hu Jiuling said.

After a pause, he regained his spirit: "Although the things of the previous life cannot be changed, Daddy can, but in this life. It's all about kung fu, and your uncle should be ready. A-Yao, you go to the Shen family with your father. ”

Hu Gui is very efficient, and he has already found a troupe in the city that specializes in beating gongs and drums for happy events, not only that, but he also brought the most gorgeous carriage of the Hu family. When all these things were ready, he ordered the charcoal to be smashed into small pieces and packed in a flat pole. Twelve men with decent faces and strong and well-proportioned bodies were selected to pick up the flat pole and follow behind the troupe of blowing, playing and singing.

When A-Yao helped Hu Jiuling out, she saw a scene where everything was ready.

Hu Jiuling nodded comfortably, and was just about to call someone to leave, when Hu Gui leaned over and looked embarrassed.

"Master, Shen Jinshan seems to be sick."

Sick? The father and daughter frowned at the same time, if they went to the Shen family, when Shen Jinshan had three long and two short, the Hu family would not be able to wash it if they jumped into the Yellow River.

"Do you have to go to the Shen family?" Yao muttered.

She just said something unintentionally, but Hu Jiuling's eyes lit up when she heard it: "Who said that we went to the Shen family, Shen Jinshan was unjust, forced each other with black charcoal, and forced the people of Qingcheng to sign the deed of loss opened by Sanqi." Even the people's hard-earned money is greedy, which is simply a loss of conscience. We are telling the people that black charcoal is not rare, his Shen family has it, and my Hu family also has it! ”

Hu Gui's face was overjoyed when he heard this, this plan was very clever. Although it is also aimed at the Shen family, the people like it. As long as everyone likes it, when Shen Jinshan comes out with three long and two short, isn't it his own stinginess.

Immediately, he walked up to the twelve porters and repeated what Hu Jiuling had said.

"Clear, huh? That's it! ”

The Hu family came to the dock with hundreds of people, and the twelve people who could be picked out were all outstanding, just a few words of advice, of course.

As soon as they were ready, the father and daughter got into the most gorgeous carriage of the Hu family, Hu Gui personally drove the car, and the group left the dock.
