Chapter 83 The first springboard
"Li Yuanwai, right, here is the shopkeeper Tao Zongwang, I built a kiln here legally compliant, I don't know why you have repeatedly asked people to make trouble, destroy my kiln, and hurt my migrant workers. Today, I have sent someone to the county government to report to the official, so you can wait for the lawsuit. Tao Xiwang looked down at Li Wenliang and said coldly.
Li Wenliang didn't seem to have recovered from the tragic scene in front of him, looking at the nurse who was lying on the ground, he couldn't imagine that more than 50 people were beaten like this by 20 people.
"Outside, outside, help me."
At this moment, a weak voice sounded on the side of the road, and Li Wenliang looked over and recognized it as the housekeeper Li Jin.
"How did you become like this?"
Yes... Yes," Li Jin pointed at Tao Zongwang with his finger, but he couldn't say anything.
"The surname is Tao, you deceive people too much." Li Wenliang pointed at Tao Zongwang and said tremblingly.
"I'm afraid I'm wrong, dozens of people entered my kiln with murder weapons, and dozens of people witnessed at the scene, who deceived people too much, you know in your heart."
"You... You..."Li Wenliang was squeezed and had nothing to say.
"Don't you think it's embarrassing enough, get back to me." After that, ignoring these people, Li Wenliang got into the sedan chair and turned around and left.
"It's good to go outside, remember to prepare wine and food at night, and wait for the official mission."
Tao Zongwang's mocking words caused the people watching to burst into laughter, and even the dozens of tenants who were originally nervous also laughed, and the high-ranking image of the outsider in his heart collapsed.
Let's say that Li Wenliang returned home with a battalion full of wounded soldiers, called a few people to inquire carefully, and learned that the other party was indeed only twenty people, but they were as strong as one and abnormal. He sensed that Li Jin's news might be fake, and this group of people must be unusual.
Li Wenliang's conjecture was basically confirmed in the evening. The officials led by Zhu Tong, the governor of Yuncheng County, arrived at the Li family crossing in the evening, and then he visited the Tao shopkeeper who reported to the official, interrogated many witnesses present, and examined a large number of various murder weapons, especially Li Er's appearance to testify, and even exposed the greedy and ugly face of the Li family, and finally Zhu Tong and they arrived at the Li family.
"Zhu Dutou must be the master of the old man, the surnamed Tao is too vicious, and he actually injured dozens of people in my village." Li Wenliang handed over a plate of silver while the wicked person sued first.
"No, the people outside Li Yuanwai entered the pottery shopkeeper kiln with a murder weapon, and there are still many murder weapons of the Li family left in the kiln, and the pottery shopkeeper is a foreigner, which means that he bullied you, which is inconsistent with common sense."
"The land and tenants of the kiln are all old man's, so it is not good to reason in the past."
"I'm afraid it's wrong again, the land deed of the kiln site and the contract of the tenant of the worker, the county government has a file, it is possible that the county government is at fault, even so, but the staff and I went to the county office to prove my innocence in person."
Yes! Li Wenliang chuckled in his heart. It's only been a few days, and the county government has entered the file. The other party came prepared this time, and he did things so well in just a few days, and he was still like a person without a foundation, and it was clearly hidden. He was stupid all at once, he felt like he was in big trouble this time.
"What do you think?" Then Zhu Dutou asked again.
"Oh, the county government doesn't have to go for the time being, these things, the old man just listened to what the housekeeper said, after I verified, then tell the governor, it's late today, the old man has prepared the wine, the governor will use some, rest for one night and come back tomorrow."
"Since the staff still needs to be verified, then we will be cheeky and nagging, but this case involves a large number of people, Xu Zhixian is very concerned, and when the staff is verified, they must be cautious, and don't implicate themselves." Zhu Tong said to him with a concerned face.
But Li Wenliang was terrified when he heard it, this is concern, it is clear that he has already determined the nature of the case, and he is just asking him to find a scapegoat.
"Old man... Old man, provincial. He reluctantly answered, and took a few people to dinner, but he said goodbye and thought of a countermeasure.
Let's talk about how to do the kiln so neatly, but Gu Haotian and Wen Huanzhang have already calculated, they sent the relevant contract to the county government for filing, in order to use it at this time, during which Gu Haotian also went to the county seat in the name of reporting to Xu Zhixian County, and met with Zhu Tong in private, and the two cooperated many times naturally tacitly.
After a night of careful consideration, Li Wenliang finally understood that there was a powerful force behind this kiln, and he couldn't afford to provoke him at all, so he waited in front of the guest room early in the morning, waiting to see Zhu Tong.
"Outside, it's early." As soon as Zhu Tong opened the door, he saw Li Wenliang, and he knew it in his heart.
"I can't sleep peacefully with guilt, last night the old man carefully interrogated a few family members, it turned out that the matter of the kiln was all a good thing that Li Jin did for his personal anger, and now the disaster has been brewed, and I hope that the governor will be thoughtful."
"This, ah......" Zhu Tong looked at his entourage on the left and right, and his face was embarrassed.
"The brothers have worked hard all the way, and the old man will not be treated badly." Li Wenliang understood in his heart that this was a hush money, so he hurriedly handed over a large plate of silver.
"With such interest outside the staff, the head of this governor has to cover up for you no matter what, but when Li entered the county hall, if he climbed and bitten indiscriminately, he couldn't help him."
"Who can blame that guy for his own hardships."
As he was talking, he saw a family member running over in a panic, "Outside, it's not good, it's not good, Steward Li, he's dead." ”
"What, the man died." Li Wenliang looked surprised.
"What a coincidence." Zhu Tong is meaningful.
A few people didn't care about eating, so they went to see the scene, and on the way, Li Wenliang secretly stuffed a silver ticket into Zhu Tong's hand.
"It's unfortunate, and I have to worry about it again."
"Let's see it."
The dispute in the kiln of the Li family Daokou ended with the housekeeper Li Jin acting greedily and committing suicide in fear of crime.
It's just that after this incident, the Li family was swept away, and no one was afraid anymore, and all the tenants flocked to the kiln to work. Li Wenliang not only broke a housekeeper and spent a lot of money, but what was even worse was that dozens of hectares of land were uncultivated, and he was about to be abandoned, only turning his worried hair white.
On this day, when Li Wenliang was sighing at home, he suddenly heard a report from the family and the shopkeeper Zhu of the Daokou Hotel came to visit. He was surprised in his heart, although this shopkeeper Zhu was familiar with each other, he didn't have any dealings, so what was the matter with coming here today. When he was puzzled, the shopkeeper Zhu was led in by the family.
"I haven't seen the staff for many days, why are you so haggard." The shopkeeper Zhu was very surprised.
"Alas, I'm just old and frail, and the shopkeeper comes to the door, and I don't know what to ask."
"Recently, there is a wealthy businessman in Hebei, because he is not tolerant of the war in Hebei every year, and wants to settle down in the Jingdong area.
It's great that someone buys land, Li Wenliang was about to open his mouth, but when he thought that the land that the Li family had accumulated for several generations was gone in his hands, he hesitated again.
"Then I'll go and get the merchant back."
Seeing that Li Wenliang didn't say anything for a long time, the shopkeeper Zhu got up and went back, but said to himself along the way: If you know that there is land and no one cultivates it, I am afraid that you don't want to give it to him.
"Shopkeeper Zhu, please stay, the old man is not thinking about it, why is he in a hurry, what price did the merchant say."
"It's not true, if you have an idea, you might as well meet him yourself."
"So - so, there is a shopkeeper."
Li Wenliang was also worried, and he also inquired, those tenants had signed a contract with the kiln for three or five years, if they really wanted to be abandoned for three or five years, it was better to sell it, go to the capital to be a rich man with his son, and live a happy life.
In the afternoon of the same day, in Zhu Fu's hotel, Li Wenliang met the wealthy businessman from Hebei. I saw that he was about thirty years old, beautifully dressed, dignified, and had a graceful and luxurious bearing.
This rich businessman is actually Han Jiangping, Gu Haotian chose him after some careful consideration, first of all, there is a lack of this kind of talent on Liangshan, Han Jiangping has been tested for his ability and loyalty after a period of experience in the logistics department, and he is a native of Hebei, and he is a child of a family, and has managed the grange, so he plays this role, and there is no need to do anything deliberately, as long as he performs in his true colors. Therefore, Li Wenliang believed three points as soon as they met.
"Hebei is rich, how could Lang Jun think of buying land here." Li Wenliang still has to test it.
"Although Hebei is rich, it is not what it used to be, the northern barbarians go south three or five times a year, and their lives are not stable, otherwise who wants to stay away from their homeland. There are mountains and rivers in Jingxi Road, the folk customs are simple, it is a good place to live, I have also walked through many places these days, compared to three or four favorites, Lijia Road crossing is also good. ”
Han Jiangping said calmly, but he felt it, which made people not have the slightest doubt.
"That being the case, I don't know how much land Lang Jun wants to buy."
"If there is good good land and there is no need to farm, it will not be too much."
"The only son is doing business in the capital, and he has no intention of returning to his hometown, and the old man is old and unable to run the grange, so he wants to sell the forty-five hectares of fertile land under his name, so that he can go to the capital to enjoy the joy of family, and Lang Jun is willing to take over."
"What is the price?"
"One tael per acre."
"But it's expensive, it's only 500 wen per mu in western Beijing, and Hebei is also much cheaper, so I'll go to the rest of the places to take a look."
In this regard, everyone on the mountain did a good job of investigating, Han Jiangping naturally knew it, and Li Wenliang was in a predicament now, so he was not afraid that he would not bow his head.
Sure enough, Li Wenliang saw that this merchant was an expert, and he was afraid that he would know the details of the Li family crossing, so he hurriedly opened his mouth to leave it, and finally the two sides agreed on a price of 600 wen per mu, a total of 2,700 taels of silver, and went to the county government office tomorrow to record the transaction.
After ten days, there were no wind and waves, only more than 2,000 taels of silver, and the Li family crossing fell into the hands of Liang Shan smoothly, Han Jiangping took office as the first owner, and the Li family crossing became the first springboard of Liang Shan outside the water park.
