Chapter 59: Solve the case quickly
Speaking of which, before the Oda family came over, the most talkative people in the Kaimachi meeting were Ikenaga Heihisa of "Notoya", Red House Soyo of "Rouge House", and Tsuda Soyo of "Tennoji Temple". Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć infoThe decisions of these three people have always been convinced by the people of the town.
After Oda Nobunaga went to Luo, he forcibly appointed Imai Sohisa to be the head of the meeting, and sent a boundary town to come over, and everyone was somewhat unconvinced.
Now in this situation, you can just look at their jokes.
Kinoshita Hideyoshi really frowned and showed an embarrassed expression as everyone expected. Imai Munehisa had to be calmer, but apparently he couldn't do anything. The two discussed in a whisper for a long time, but it never looked like they could solve the problem.
Both of them have contracts in hand, but there is a big error in the numbers, and it is clear that one of them is not telling the truth. The biggest suspicion is that Genroku Fukuoka, the head of the "medicine house" who was in charge of signing the contract half a year ago, has died. There is no proof of death, and even if the shrine is dug up, it will not be able to make the bones open.
If it's an ordinary businessman with no background and no fame, it's a big deal to get out. This kind of bullying has not been done before, as long as it is hidden, there will be no big problems. But this Yuyue 30 Lang is a subordinate of the Oda family's important minister Heide Tsuhide, and he doesn't look at the face of the monk to see the face of the Buddha, and he can't be easily offended.
But the little West family of this "medicine house" is not a nobody. Although Xiaoxijia is not among the "thirty-six people" in the meeting, it is also the second second-class wealthy businessman, with a wide range of contacts and a lot of influence. Without tangible evidence, you can't force the local decent people to give in first, right?
The tighter Kinoshita Hideyoshi's brows furrowed, the more interested the onlookers became.
As the commercial center of Fuso, in this era of imperfect trade regulations, there have always been many business disputes, and there are always some headless lawsuits involving thousands or even tens of thousands of silver coins every year. This would not have been unusual.
But this is a special situation, it is the first case that the new Kaimachi of the Oda family has encountered, and thousands of eyes are staring, and if it is done poorly, I am afraid that it will be a smashing signboard.
The Yukoshi Thirty Lang and Konishi Yukiro were still looking at each other angrily, refusing to give in to each other, and they were both unforgiving.
At this moment's struggle, I saw another stout and short warrior in the crowd. The samurai stepped forward and whispered a few words into the ears of Kinoshita Hideyoshi and Imai Munehisa.
I don't know what kind of wise words this person is talking about, Kinoshita heard this, and the solemnity on his face suddenly dissolved, revealing a smug look.
Then Kinoshita Hideyoshi smiled, slapped his face, and got up and paced two steps. looked at the expectant or doubtful eyes of the people around him, and then said slowly:
"This matter has been ascertained by this official!"
As soon as these words came out, the onlookers were all stunned.
It turned out that just now, Lord Feng was sitting here in person, but secretly sent this rough man with a short figure to verify? How did you know the truth so quickly?
It's not that no one doubts that such a compact plot development is not a normal case at all, it is obviously acting......
But in this era of underdeveloped communication and entertainment, most passers-by are only anxious to see the follow-up, where can they care about being suspicious?
Therefore, more than ninety percent of the eyes are focused on Kinoshita Hideyoshi, the commissioner of Kaimachi, waiting for him to tell him what the truth of "finding out" is.
Kinoshita cleared his throat, straightened up and stroked the few whiskers that were better than nothing, looking left and right, enjoying the feeling of being in the limelight. After doing so, he said slowly:
"Fang Cai, Mr. Tamakoshi Sanshiro from Owari, claims to have a contract in hand. But the head of the medicine house, the head of the medicine house, said that the contract was fake. Obviously, the biggest suspicion lies in the signatories of this deed. Half a year ago, it was not the relatives of the Konishi family who were in charge of signing the contract, but Genroku Fukuoka, the head of the "medicine house". ā
This is something that anyone with a normal IQ can come to this conclusion. The onlookers saw that he only said such nonsense after brewing for a long time, and they were dissatisfied in their hearts, thinking that this Kinoshita Hideyoshi couldn't distinguish the priorities and was extremely verbose. But no one dared to scold this adherent adult in front of him, just a cold scene for a while.
Fortunately, Kinoshita didn't pretend for too long, and slowly added:
"You may be thinking, isn't this Genroku Fukuoka already dead? There is no proof of death, and even if the shrine is dug up, it will not be able to make the bones open. However, according to the official verification, this Fukuoka Genroku-"
and deliberately dragged a long syllable to whet the audience's appetite before he finally agreed:
"This Fukuoka Genroku is not dead!"
"How is that possible!"
Before the onlookers could react, the young proprietor of the medicine house, Konishi Yuki, was very unhappy and retorted: "We, Konishi, will never dare to deceive customers in this matter, and please be aware of everything and don't listen to rumors." ā
Kinoshita Hideyoshi looked at the excited Konishi Yukicho, didn't think he was angry, and he didn't reply directly, but just looked back at the short and concise rough man, and said, "Let the bee-sama of the family explain this matter!" ā
At this time, everyone realized that the guy who looked like a country warrior was the deputy bee Suga Koroku of the Kaimachi.
There are also those who say that they have never heard of this name, but they immediately got popular science.
This Bee Suga Koroku spoke much more straightforwardly than Kinoshita Hideyoshi, he looked around and said directly: "In the Lower Bee Sukahiko Right Emon Masaki, known as Koroku." At present, I am assisting the commissioner and temporarily managing the security of Kai Town. After investigating in the past few days, I found a strange thing. It turned out that the head of the medicine house, Fukuoka Genroku, was still alive, but he just cheated money and died. ā
As soon as the four words of defrauding money and defrauding death came out, a low exclamation could not help but sound in the crowd of onlookers. There are no criminal dramas broadcast these days, everyone is rare and strange, and they don't know anything about all kinds of criminal methods.
That Yuyue Thirty Lang didn't care about this, but hurriedly asked:
"Can he be caught? Does this contract still count? ā
Koroku Beesuka smiled and didn't answer, only looked sideways at Kinoshita Hideyoshi beside him.
Kinoshita didn't hesitate, shook his head and replied:
"This Fukuoka Genroku is still on the hunt, but his family property has been seized. Since the contract was signed by him privately, it does not represent the Xiaoxi family of the medicine house, so it can only be invalidated. However, Mr. Tamakoshi Sanshiro's loss was compensated by confiscating the remaining wealth of the criminal. ā
The verdict is out. Although Tamakoshi Sanshiro is not completely satisfied, he seems to be able to accept this statement.
But the audience was in a hurry. The key plot hasn't been revealed yet! How this criminal cheated money, how he faked his death, I didn't say it!
It's just that as an onlooker, it seems that there is no position to ask these questions.
Fortunately, President Konishi asked this question for them.
The young proprietor of this medicine house, as if he was not convinced, bowed down and asked:
"Dare to ask my lord, how did this head of the contemptuous business commit the crime?"
This time Kinoshita was silent, and he motioned for Wasuka to explain.
And Bee Suka Xiaoliu also stepped forward without any shelf. He didn't answer and asked, "Mr. Konishi, may I ask if the head of your pharmacy has the authority to handle 1,500 pieces of business independently?" ā
Without thinking, Konishi replied, "Yes! The business of the medicine house is not small, and only the men of our Xiaoxi family can't take care of it, and each head has the right to operate independently, as long as there is no mistake after it is recorded in the general account. ā
Wasuka asked again:
"But today, the business that Mr. Yuyue Sanshiro said does not match the general ledger records?"
"Indeed."
"In this case, may I ask again, how much work does it take for the hired person of your commercial house to be promoted to the top of the list?"
"This ...... Starting from apprenticeships and apprenticeships, only a few can do it. It takes twenty or thirty years for those who are talented to get to the top. There are four branches in various places, employing a total of nearly 200 people, and there are only six heads in total, and only five are left after the death of Genroku Fukuoka. ā
"Among these heads, is Genroku Fukuoka the oldest?"
"How did Wasuka-sama find out?" Konishi Yukicho wondered, "That's true. Although Fantou has hundreds of annual salaries and dividend shares, it is always inferior to the income of the self-supporting portal. The people who can stand out as the head of the fan, half of them would rather be the head of the chicken than the tail of the phoenix. ā
Shopping malls are not as cruel as battlefields, and they are not always life-or-death, so Konishi Yukicho does not shy away from talking about this independent matter.
But Bee Suga Xiaoliu grasped the key to the problem and asked:
"Then why has this Fukuoka Genroku always been at ease as a leader?"
āā¦ā¦ People have their own aspirations, maybe he is born to be at peace with what happens? ā
"If this is the case, why was he still busy running around the commercial house until his 'death'? Instead of a peaceful day? ā
"Uh......"
This question not only made Yukicho Konishi speechless, but also made the audience feel the same way.
Indeed, if the senior employees of the general commercial housing have the intention to work hard and forge ahead to build a career, they will decisively set up their own business and create their own business after training and accumulation enough. If you don't think so, you can retire early with your surplus money and turn to the tea ceremony, art, or find a temple to live in seclusion.
It is indeed rare for Genroku Fukuoka to be like Konishiya who is still working for people in his sixtieth year, and finally "dies" in office. If you think about it, the only possibility is to keep it as a moth.
In this way, everyone has vaguely believed that Konishi Yukicho and Yukoshi Sanshiro are innocent, but they were deceived by a deceitful person.
And over there, Bee Suka Xiaoliu continued to ask.
"Dare to ask Mr. Konishi. After Genroku Fukuoka claimed that he was 'sick', did he only ask a doctor he was familiar with to see him? ā
"Yes. He has a friend who practices medicine in Kaimachi all year round. ā
"Until the funeral, only his family is in charge, right? Have outsiders ever seen a body? ā
"No, it was said that the illness was serious, and the appearance was very terrifying, so it was not suitable for the public."
"Where did his family go after the funeral?"
"I said that I sent the ashes back to my hometown, but I haven't come back yet...... Is it ......?"
"It's not the first time for the Xiaoxi family to do something like today, right?"
āā¦ā¦ This, indeed, in the past, there were times when the contract numbers of the two parties did not coincide, but the amount was much smaller than today......"
Hearing this, everyone also understood that this matter was indeed the Fukuoka Genroku troublemaker, who agreed on a high deposit and a low price with the customer, while the opposite of what was reported to the general ledger was a low deposit and a high total price. The difference in the middle of the price will fill your pocket.
The reason why he still stayed in Xiaoxi's medicine house and didn't stand on his own was to continue to practice this greedy thing.
Maybe it's because the money I made this year is too much to get back, so I just cheated to death and escaped, it's really cunning!
Seeing that no one questioned it anymore, Kinoshita Hideyoshi, the commissioner of Kaimachi, repeated it again:
"Since the contract was signed by this person privately, it does not represent the Xiaoxi family of the medicine house, so it can only be invalidated. Mr. Tamakoshi Sanshiro's loss was compensated by confiscating the remaining wealth of the criminal. In the future, similar victims' complaints will be handled in accordance with this practice. ā
Although the perpetrator was not caught, the stolen money was recovered, so there is nothing unsatisfactory about this treatment plan. Yuyue and Xiaoxi both bowed down and praised together.
The overjoyed onlookers are also ready to leave, and one by one they still look unsatisfied. There are a few people who still doubt that this is a rehearsed acting, but they can't figure out what the purpose is.
At this moment, Kinoshita Hideyoshi suddenly said:
"It is better to raise the soup to stop boiling, than to draw salary from the bottom of the kettle. In order to prevent such cases from happening, this official wants to implement a new policy! ā
