What's the problem......
Ning Xiu couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
Ning Gong saw that his nephew was silent, thinking that he would not be able to save himself out, so he shook Ning Xiu's arm urgently.
"San Lang, you can save the third uncle. When you were a child, your third uncle loved you so much......"
"There it is!"
"Huh?"
Ning Gong looked at Ning Xiu with a surprised expression, what is there?
"Yes, my nephew knows what the problem is. The third uncle said that one of the officials took the initiative to find the third uncle and wanted to cooperate with the third uncle. ”
Ning Gong nodded again and again: "Yes, your third uncle's reputation as the butcher Ning is well-known in Jiangling City, who else can he find if he doesn't look for your third uncle?" ”
Ning Xiu took a deep breath and said, "The problem lies with this official. ”
"Out of him? Why, how could there be a problem with the meat he bought from me. ”
Ning Xiuzhi was speechless for a while.
"Third uncle, these are completely different things. The third uncle's meat here is fine, but it may not be in the hands of this guy. The nephew suspected that the guy had dropped the meat he bought. ”
"Dropping a bag? What is he trying to do? ”
Ning Gong's reflex arc was really long enough, and Ning Xiu had to explain patiently: "Third uncle, do you think that he bought the meat flower with the public funds of the county government, right?" ”
"Yes, how could he be so generous if it wasn't for public funds. There is a way to be an official horse, a thin official ship, and a leak...... Wait, you're saying that this guy will trade in good meat for bad quality in order to make the difference? ”
Ning Xiuchang let out a long breath, and the third uncle finally understood.
"His grandmother has a leg, Lao Tzu trusts him so much, he actually stabbed Lao Tzu in the back."
Ning Gong woke up like a dream, but he was trembling with anger.
Thinking that his butcher Ning was also a first-class butcher in Jiangling City, he was so discredited, he really couldn't swallow this bad breath.
"This guy's methods are really clever, and the reason why he chose the third uncle is because the third uncle is quite famous in the industry."
Ning Xiu seemed to have opened up the second vein of Ren and Du, and strung together all the ideas.
If he chooses a butcher shop that is not well-known or has a poor reputation, and there is a problem with the meat he buys, Shangguan will be more or less suspicious of this clerk, thinking that he eats kickbacks, and deliberately chooses meat of poor quality to be shoddy. And the third uncle's shop is first-class in Gangneung City. Choosing the third uncle as a partner can avoid this suspicion to the greatest extent. ”
On the other hand, this guy is very good at using reverse psychology.
"Under normal circumstances, when there is a problem with the quality of the meat, neither the store nor the person who buys the meat can escape suspicion. But this official's move to steal the beam and change the pillar was unexpected by everyone, and even the third uncle was kept in the dark. ”
Most people suspect that the rebates are limited to the first layer, and they can't react after a slight turn.
"I spent a lot of money and chose the most famous butcher shop in Gangneung City to cooperate in the purchase, at least on the surface, this official is very sincere, and he has no intention of taking kickbacks."
Ning Xiu said slowly: "People's thinking is inertia, and it is easy to be taken to the ditch. Often, the simple problem is that you can't get around. This clerk bought meat from the third uncle and sold it to other butcher shops, bought some inferior meat, and earned a large price difference, which was more profitable than the kickback. ”
Hearing this, Ning Gong gasped.
Indeed, not to mention the difference in price, he pushed the responsibility away, and asked himself to be this substitute for the dead, this bad guy is really calculating.
"Third uncle, if my nephew guesses correctly, this official must also vomit and diarrhea, and even the most serious vomiting and diarrhea in the yamen."
Ning Gong nodded.
"Yes, when your third uncle was arrested, he wanted to confront this guy and prove that there was no problem with the meat sold to him, but the messenger said that this guy ran to the thatched house more than a dozen times a day, and he had already collapsed."
"Now that I see it, it's a bitter ploy."
Ning Xiu smiled bitterly and said: "People are all seeking advantages and avoiding harm, he sought the sympathy of the county magistrate through his miserable situation, so that the county magistrate subconsciously thought that he was also a victim. In fact, compared to the huge benefits he obtained, what is the point of having a stomach trouble for a few days? ”
"I'm going to hammer this murderous bastard to death, I'm going to hammer him to death!"
The third uncle approached the rampage, and Ning Xiu calmed him down after some reassurance.
"Third uncle, these are just nephews' inferences, and if you want to prove this person's guilt, you have to have sufficient evidence."
Ning Gong sat down on the ground with a thud, and said with a sad face: "Yes, there is no basis for what you say, why should the county lord listen to our words." Besides, after all, the official is a member of the Yamen, and the county respecter still trusts him more, right? ”
Ning Xiu comforted: "Third Uncle don't be too pessimistic. It's man-made, and my nephew doesn't believe that there are no flaws to catch in this guy. ”
"San Lang, do you have any way to say it quickly. The third uncle will definitely do his best to cooperate with you. ”
Don't look at Ning Gong's usual work of splitting the road of life and death, he cowers in the face of official power, like a child in the year of the general horn.
Ning Gong didn't want to stay in the cell for a moment.
"Third uncle, come here with your ears."
Ning Xiu leaned on the third uncle's ear and instructed, but Ning Gong frowned and said, "Is this really okay?" Will it be self-defeating? ”
"Is there a better way for the third uncle? There is only one way to do it. ”
Ning Xiu clenched his fists and said, "Nephew believes that soon this guy will be exposed." ”
......
......
After Ning Xiu left the prison, he turned to see Chen Zhixian.
The meeting was in Chen Zhixian's study.
There were only two people in the house, Ning Xiu and Chen Zhixian, Ning Xiu bowed to Chen Xian Ling and said: "Qiyu County Zun, the student has already met the third uncle, he insists that he is innocent, and suspects that the He Yanmu who bought the meat did it. ”
Chen Xianling stroked his beard and said, "Xiansheng, your mood can be understood by this county. But the verdict is based on one piece of evidence. You defend him like this, and the official is also very embarrassed. ”
Ning Xiu smiled and said, "The student has a plan to find out if this He Yuanmu is lying. ”
"Oh?"
Chen Xianling asked with great interest: "Xiansheng might as well talk about it." ”
He didn't have any deep hatred with Ning Xiu, it was nothing more than because of the Lu family's affairs.
If Third Uncle Ning Xiu was really greedy for money and sold inferior meat, then taking the opportunity to beat Ning Xiu, Chen Xianling naturally felt very comfortable.
But if Ning Butcher was wronged, Chen Xianling wanted to see who was the real murderer.
In the eyes of Chen County Order, the betrayal of the county officials cannot be forgiven.
"The county lord may wish to order that the butcher shops in the whole city compete for the qualification to directly supply meat to the county government. The reason is very simple, because there was a serious meat quality problem, and the county government needed to choose the best butcher shop through comparison. ”
Chen Xianling said with a blank face: "What does this have to do with this case?" ”
