Sun Bin frowned.

I thought: Qiao Lixi is still too young after all, and there are always times when she is not meticulous.

"Thank you Madame for the reminder," Qiao Lixi's unhurried tone interrupted Sun Bin's thoughts, I don't know if it was influenced by Qiao Lixi, Sun Bin's worry also lightened a little. I inquired about the account of the shop as the owner of the shop, so the problem that the lady said did not exist. ”

Don't forget, she still has the deed to the shop.

"Qiaoqiao is really capable, he can actually take the so-called deed and let people take the initiative to show you the account." Feng said bitterly.

"That's because I have a real deed in my hand, and the tenant is naturally willing to check the rent with me, don't worry, madam, I am a businessman who does my duty, and I will not do anything against the law."

"I hope so!" The Feng clan glanced at Qiao Yixi faintly.

Qiao Lixi explained: "I took the deed of those shops, found the tenants, and explained the situation, at first those tenants showed me the contract signed by the Hou Mansion with them before, and the rent on it was consistent with the account book given by the wife. But the merchant was treacherous, like me, and I certainly didn't believe the number on the lease, so I moved and reasoned with it, and then they came up with another lease with more than three times the amount of the fake rent. I carefully compared the two leases and found that the one they gave me had the seal of the Hou Mansion on it, so I believed it to be true. I was afraid that my saliva would be unfounded, so I borrowed all the leases in the hands of the merchants. I also lost a month's rent in order to borrow these leases, and I don't know who to ask for. ”

Feng gritted his teeth and said, "You said these are true, is it true? What if you have the seal of the Hou Mansion, who knows if you colluded with those tenants. ”

"Madam, for the first time, I discovered that the so-called noble circle is more ...... than ordinary people Shameless. ”

"Sister-in-law, you can't talk nonsense!" Gu Jintai said quietly.

Qiao Yixi smiled slightly, "So, what Madam means is that without the seal of the Hou Mansion, the lease with low rent is real, and with the seal of the Hou Mansion, the lease with high rent is fake?" Luckily, I checked the account. ”

Qiao Lixi pointed to a few leases with the seal of the Hou Mansion on the table, and said: "These merchants, the rent transferred to the Hou Mansion every month is given according to the number on these leases with the seal of the Hou Mansion, and the Hou Mansion has also signed for it, if the lady says that these leases are fake, then why did the lady sign them?" ”

After speaking, he shook the receipt in his hand.

"You ......" Feng opened his mouth in vain, but couldn't say a word to refute it.

A few people who were aggressive before fell silent.

Dingguo Hou didn't talk much from the beginning.

First, this kind of family affairs are all done by women, what does he mix with a man?

Second, it was Qiao Lixi who came forward from the "Wutong Pavilion", and he, who was a father-in-law, talked so much about his daughter-in-law, and the impact was not good.

Finally, he believed in Feng's abilities too much.

Feng has been in the door for so long, things at home are in order, and things outside are at ease, I originally thought she was a capable person, but compared to Qiao Lixi, it was a world of difference!

The previous ability and neatness have become an illusion, and even a merchant girl can't deal with it, how to manage the Hou Mansion, how to help him and his two sons?

"So, I guess everyone has no questions about these leases, right?"

Sun Bin and Lu Yushi stroked their beards and nodded.

Over there, Qiao Lixi continued: "Then, let's talk about these leases.

She pointed to the middle part of the ledger summary list given by the Feng family and said, "These shops were rented out by the Hou Mansion when they were relieved and not in a hurry to use the silver, right, madam?" ”

Feng nodded, "Yes, but, because the prices of the shops rented out before are not high, the rent of these shops is not high, after all, they are all rented out from the Hou Mansion, and the price difference is too big, and people who are interested will think that they are tired." You also know that these shops are all your mother-in-law's, if it weren't for the livelihood of the Hou Mansion and other people, we wouldn't have touched your mother-in-law's dowry shop. Therefore, it is enough to maintain daily use, the rent is too high, and Hou Ye will be misunderstood by others. ”

Moved everything, are you still afraid that others will misunderstand?

Don't even collect rent shamelessly, but also avoid suspicion shamefully?

"It's still that Mrs. is thoughtful, but without informing my father, I used my mother-in-law's dowry, and the people outside didn't misunderstand and misunderstood."

The Feng clan had a white face, and while hating Qiao Yixi, he also had a dislike for his companions in this camp.

Obviously, they all saw that their side was weak, and they didn't know how to help, it was inconvenient for a few men to speak, and Chang Yulian didn't know how to speak!

I saw her being trampled under Qiao Yixi's feet, and watched her lose face!

Don't forget, everyone is a grasshopper on a rope, she has no face, and they are no better!

Suppressing the anger in his heart, the Feng clan looked at Qiao Lixi majestically.

If you lose, you can't lose the battle, you can't win the battle of words, and you can't lose in momentum.

"Qiaoqiao can rest assured, these leases are all real, and the rent is paid according to the amount on the lease, of course, if you don't believe it, you can check it yourself." Feng changed the topic and was no longer taken away by Qiao Yixi.

Today's fight is here, and she can see it.

Qiao Lixi not only came prepared, but also with a strong fighting spirit!

If they are not careful, the content and rhythm of the conversation will be driven by Qiao Lixi, and the result is that they will be led into a dead end by Qiao Lixi and will not be able to turn over.

Therefore, the current Feng clan no longer talks so much with Qiao Yixi, only talking about business, not anything else.

Qiao Yixi nodded, "These leases are indeed real, and the rent is no problem." ”

Feng Shi breathed a sigh of relief, and the corners of his mouth finally slowly rose.

Qiao Yixi turned her head and looked at Sun Bin, "Lord Sun, I want to ask about fraud." ”

Because Sun Bin is a consultant hired by her, in terms of self-title, Qiao Lixi puts the two on an equal footing.

"Scam?" Sun Bin looked at Qiao Yixi in surprise.

Feng was also anxious, "What does this have to do with fraud?" The lease is clearly true! ”

Qiao Yixi looked at Sun Bin and said embarrassedly: "On the one hand, the lease of the house taken out by the previous lady is a deception of the owner of the shop, that is, General Gu. ”

The faces of the Feng clan and the others changed.

Although they were at odds with the "Wutong Pavilion", they never thought that they would go to court, is this a blatant disgrace for them?

"Qiao Lixi!" Dingguo Hou gritted his back molars to warn Qiao Yixi.

Qiao Lixi turned a deaf ear and only looked at Sun Bin blankly.

Sun Bin snickered in his heart, but his face remained serious, "According to the laws of the dynasty, not only should the difference in the middle be compensated, but also a certain amount of compensation should be given according to the amount of greedy ink." If the number of greedy ink in the middle reaches 2,000 taels, you can go to the official government to file a complaint, and according to the laws of the dynasty, if you reach a certain number, you will go to prison. ”

Qiao Yixi nodded, "Seven hundred thousand taels, I don't know how many years it will take." ”

"What 700,000 taels? The annual rent of those shops is only twenty or thirty thousand! ”

More than ten years, but also hundreds of thousands, what's the difference?

Qiao Lixi slandered in her heart, "By the way, Lord Sun, these 700,000 taels were left by my mother-in-law to my father, if my master is used on soldiers and horses, it can be regarded as military salary, right?" After embezzling 700,000 taels of military salaries and disregarding the lives of so many soldiers, how many years will you be in prison? ”

"Death penalty."

"Qiao Lixi!" Dingguohou can't seem to do anything else except grit his teeth and call Qiao Lixi's name.

"So, let's take a look at these leases next. Master Sun, this is the second scam I want to ask. ”

Sun Bin looked at Qiao Yixi with great interest.

Lu Yushi, who was acting as a witness on the side, was also a little more interested in what was going to happen.

Qiao Lixi said: "My mother-in-law's shop, the location is in the best location in the capital, how much the rent is, everyone present has a number. Previously, Mrs. said that because the price of the first shop to rent out was not high, in order to treat everyone equally, the rent of the later shop was not high. But now that it has been proven that the rent of the first shops to be rented out, then I naturally have to doubt the leases of these shops. ”

Feng's heart was a little calm.

The lease and rent of these shops are completely fine, no matter how Qiao Yixi checks.

"It's okay with these leases, it's okay with the rent, I'm talking about the tenants."

"Tenants?" Sun Bin asked, rubbing his beard.

Qiao Yixi nodded, "As the owner of the shop, without knowing it, the agent teamed up with the tenant to make a fake lease and defraud the rent, is this not a fraud?" ”

"Scam? What did we lie to you? Feng asked sharply, "You have admitted it yourself, the lease and rent are fine, what did we lie to you?" ”

Qiao Lixi glanced at the Feng family inexplicably, "The lease and rent are no problem, I said the tenant." As I said earlier, everyone knows how much rent my mother-in-law's shop can rent, and this price is ...... Madame also said before that when renting these shops, the Hou Mansion had already relieved itself, and was not in a hurry to ask for silver turnover, and there was no consistency with the rent of the shops rented out first, so why can't I suspect that people on both sides joined forces to maliciously lower the price and swallow the master's silver? ”

"Madam, don't be impatient, we are talking so much here, it is all unfounded, why waste time." Qiao Yixi once again stopped the Feng family's intention to speak.

Goji went out smartly.

Once again, the hearts of the people were raised.

Every time this maid beside Qiao Lixi goes out and comes back in, nothing good happens.

Sure enough, when Goji came in, he brought a few people with him.

After seeing the appearance of those people clearly, Feng's face turned pale.

Dingguohou pinched the teacup on the table, his fingers "clicked", and it was very abrupt in the quiet study.

"These people are the tenants of these shops, Mrs. should know them, right?"
