Chapter 185: Seizure of Illicit Salt

He Ren thought for a moment when he heard this, and then said: "You go to the ship and pretend to carry the goods, and look to see if there is a secret compartment leading to the compartment, if there is, those things should be in the compartment." Zhou Fu nodded, and then mixed in with the crowd of people carrying goods, and entered the cabin, the men and the servants were still carrying things, and Wan Peng had been standing still in one place.

Zhou Fu looked privately, and kept touching the floor in the cabin with his hands to see if he could find any abrupt gaps, but he searched the cabin and there was nothing strange. At this time, someone from the Wan family spread the word that Wan Quan asked Wan Peng to come over, and he wanted to ask.

Wan Peng shook his head and said, "You told the master that I am moving the goods now and have no time to go." Zhou Fu was very surprised by this, and always felt that this Wan Peng was a little strange. At this time, a servant came to say that Lord Yin wanted to ask Wan Peng, and when Wan Peng heard it, he knew that he couldn't refuse, so he had to ask the guys of the Wan family to pay attention, and watch everyone move the goods in the warehouse and go out.

After Wan Peng left, Zhou Fu stared at the place where Wan Peng was standing, this cabin had not been searched in that place, and there must be a reason why Wan Peng was reluctant to leave that place. Zhou Fu pretended to check the goods, and secretly touched the floor with his hand, and sure enough, it didn't take long for his palm to feel a little strange.

Zhou Fu took a closer look and there was indeed a gap that happened to be enough to stuff a finger, Zhou Fu stuffed it in with his finger, and took a hard bite, it was really a secret door, and the secret door was opened.

Zhou Fu hurriedly said when he saw it: "There is still a secret door here, there are still goods inside, let's hurry up and finish moving, this ship is on fire, if it leaks again, the goods will be finished." "The guys of the Wan family are very surprised, this secret grid is only known to them, it is some of Wan Peng's private goods, if it is exposed, Wan Peng will definitely be angry.

A few guys originally wanted to stop it, but the officials on the side hurriedly stepped forward to remove all the things in it, so they could hurry up. The officials opened the compartment and bowed down to the compartment, and were instantly stunned by the scene in front of them, there were about a dozen sacks neatly stacked in the small compartment, and I don't know what they contained, as well as some porcelain and tea.

The officials then quickly took the qi out of the compartment, and Zhou Fu on the side was relieved to see the bags of things put in, and then quietly got off the boat and came to He Ren's side: "He Gongzi, the things have been found, they are all in the place you said, and the officials are moving down." ”

He Ren nodded, and then saw that the servants were laboriously carrying the sacks, Wan Peng originally explained to Wan Quan and Du Shaofu the situation of the fire, and what was the cargo in the cabin, but when he saw that the bags of private salt were moved, he panicked instantly, at this time Wan Quan was also very strange, I don't know how there are more of these sacks, every time Wan Peng will bring some "goods" in private, it is not a big deal, and he has turned a blind eye to the past, why are there so many things this time.

Wan Quan looked at Wan Peng in confusion, wanting to know what was here, but Wan Peng hurriedly beckoned the guys from the Wan family to carry all these private salts, and hurriedly transported them away while these officials and several adults were not paying attention.

Lin Mo saw that his bags of things had been found, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and looked at Wanquan a little undecided, if he really picked out the matter, then there was no room for recovery, but the matter had already come to this point, and he couldn't help himself.

Du Shaofu looked at some sacks and asked suspiciously: "Wanquan, what are you transporting?" It's like dirt. Wan Peng was also very strange why there were more of these sacks, but then hurriedly said: "Lord Hui, these are some ordinary goods, as well as some tea, this tax villain will go to the yamen to make up for it." ”

Du Shaofu instantly understood when he heard it, these should be private tea, although private tea is the same as illegal salt, but the nature is different, salt must be operated by the government or people licensed by the government, and tea is generally operated by shops only need to pay enough taxes, of course, this tax is also extremely high.

Some traders don't dare to sell smuggled salt, but this private tea is not so strict, basically those who do Cao Yun will bring some private goods, this tea is the most common, if you are caught, that is, you can pay a tax, after all, more is better than less, and the yamen is too lazy to care about these little things.

Du Shaofu naturally despises this kind of behavior very much, and he also dislikes these mercenary businessmen from the bottom of his heart, but when he encounters such a thing, he will turn a blind eye to it, this is not a big crime after all, if he is too serious, I am afraid that he will offend many people.

Although Du Shaofu is an honest and honest official, he is not inflexible, stereotyped and outdated, otherwise he would not have achieved the position of Fu Yin, as long as it is not something that touches the bottom line, he will not care too much about interference. Wan Quan was a little surprised when he heard this, this Wan Peng didn't know why, this time he brought so much tea, and this was also found, and this time there was a lot of mercury to be paid, and he was naturally not very happy in his heart.

But at this time, Wan Peng secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, this Du Shaofu fortunately didn't dig deeper, otherwise he really couldn't prevaricate, and he really scared himself enough just now. And Deng Heguang on the side looked at these sacks a little thoughtfully.

At this time, a subordinate of the Wan family slipped under his feet, and the bag that he was leading fell off his hand and fell to the ground, and the bag was opened instantly, and the contents flowed out. Where is the tea leaves, which are clearly clean and flawless salt, as white as snowflakes in the sunlight, reflecting a dazzling brilliance. This sudden scene surprised everyone present, and they all looked at the salt in this place and were at a loss.

Wan Peng was already in a cold sweat, his eyes were full of fear, Du Shaofu looked at the salt on the ground and looked at Wanquan, his eyes were full of indifference, and he said angrily: "Wanquan, this is the goods of your Wanjia, what do you say this is?" Tea? Wan Quan was also at a loss, and when he heard Du Shaofu's voice, he reacted and looked at Wan Peng and said angrily: "Wan Peng, what's going on?" Where does this come from? How could it be on my ship? ”

Wan Peng hurriedly said in a trembling voice: "Big brother, I really don't know this, I don't know why there are four more bags of salt on the ship, I am in a hurry, so I hid the salt, big brother, this is really not what I put it." ”

At this time, Du Shaofu hurriedly asked the official to open all the remaining sacks, which were all private salt, looking at more than a dozen bags of private salt, it was cold hands and feet, and his eyes were full of fear, although he didn't know what was going on, but he knew that he was afraid that he would not be able to retreat this time.

Wan Peng looked at these sacks full of white salt, and his face was full of horror as if he had seen a ghost, and muttered in his mouth: "How can there be so much salt, I really didn't bring it, obviously there are only four bags" and then his eyes darkened and fainted.

Lin Mo looked at the dozen bags of salt and was also a little dissatisfied

At a loss, it was clear that he only prepared two bags of salt at that time, and each bag added up to thirty or forty catties, and the extra ten bags were at least three or four hundred catties, and he also didn't know where these came from.

At this time, Wan Quan remembered something and looked at Lin Mo, pointed at Lin Mo and said: "It's you, these are all put by you, you deliberately framed me, yes, it must be you, Du Fuyin, you must not be deceived by this Lin Mo, this is all put by Lin Mo, you must not favor Lin Mo." ”

Lin Mo looked at Wan Quan and sighed and said: "Shopkeeper Wan, I didn't expect you to really do this private salt business, we are all businessmen, and this businessman must also have his own bottom line, we can't get involved in this illegal business, you are killing yourself." When Wan Quan heard this, his eyes were round, and he looked at Lin Mo with anger, and then rushed towards Lin Mo like crazy, and was about to knock Lin Mo to the ground, and the officials on the side hurriedly stepped forward to stop Wan Quan from going crazy.

Wanquan opened his teeth and claws, and shouted angrily: "Don't be complacent, you will definitely be punished." Then Wan Quan seemed to think of something and immediately said: "Master Du, I know, this matter was arranged by Lin Mo in advance, he must have obtained private salt from another family and put it on the boat, and then led us to search and put this charge on me, yes, this Lin Mo and Nahu"

"What nonsense? The evidence is ironclad, you still dare to bark here, full of nonsense, this salt is yours, you use this private salt design to frame others, but I didn't expect Skynet to be restored and not leaked, and finally found out about you. Lord Du, please put this guy in prison first, and arraign him tomorrow, and convict and punish this villain who sells illicit salt and frames others, so as to correct the law of the country. ”

Wan Quan's originally angry face suddenly turned pale when he heard Deng Heguang's words, and his mouth said, "My lord, believe me, this matter really has nothing to do with me." Deng Heguang didn't care what he said, he directly asked the official to gag his mouth and escort him and the people of Wanfu back.

Du Shaofu only frowned and didn't say anything when he saw Deng Heguang escorting Wanquan away so decisively, but just asked the official to escort Lin Mo back to the county government together, Lin Mo is still a suspect now, and he can't be released until the trial is clear. In this way, everyone returned to the palace in a huge way, and it was getting late at this time, and the matter of this arraignment could only be said tomorrow.

At night, most of the people in Yunzhou have slept peacefully, but a few families still have the lights on and have not fallen asleep. Deng Mansion, Deng Heguang sat on the chair in the study, and there was a man standing below, it was Qiu Ji'an, Qiu Jia'an looked at Deng Heguang respectfully, waiting for Deng Heguang to speak. After a long time, Deng Heguang opened his eyes, looked at Qiu Ji'an and said, "Are you involved in this matter?" ”

Qiu Ji'an looked at Deng Heguang's suspicious gaze in his eyes, and hurriedly said: "Back to my lord, the villain has indeed heard of this matter, this Wanquan has privately found the villain, discussed with the villain to expose the Hu family, and took over the business himself, and said that he already has a way, so that the villain can rest assured to do it with him." When Deng Heguang heard this, he said coldly: "Since you know, why don't you tell this official?" Do you really have that idea? ”
