Chapter Seventy-Five: The Virtuous Are the Own, and the Rich Are the End
Arsonist, Chen!
As soon as these words were spoken, the surroundings suddenly fell silent. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
A famous stall owner stepped back one after another, with different expressions, and although Chen Asan was happy, he also knew that it was not appropriate, so he quickly lowered his head and hid his expression.
"Oh? Chen Zhi set fire? Do you have a certificate? Then let him come over and confront him. Liu Yang squinted his eyes, his expression became serious, his gaze swept over everyone, and he already had a guess in his heart, so he knew that Chen Zhi had left, and he deliberately said so.
The crime of arson is not small, even the family can't suppress it, so it must be asked.
As soon as he asked, the expressions of the people opposite him became unnatural.
Bai Qing looked embarrassed, and as soon as he made up his mind, he was asked about the point, and he had to answer, so he had to say truthfully: "This, Chen Zhiren has already run away." ”
"Ran away?" Liu Yang raised his eyebrows, "Is it really when my news is blocked?" Chen Zhi came to the appointment tonight, and brought a scholar, a scholar, and a scholar, surrounded by so many people, and set fire to the building and ran away? He mocked.
As if to match his words, the sound of shouting and cheering all around was endless, and a famous nursing home and servants were extremely busy, roughly calculated, there were more than 20 people, most of them were powerful nursing homes.
A weak scholar also carried a drag oil bottle, set it on fire, and under the siege of the courtyard, he still wanted to run away, and he would not believe anyone who said it, so they naturally would not think that Chen Zhi sent Kong Li to disturb it, and planned the retreat route in advance.
But by now, Bai Qing had opened his bow and had no turning back, so he could only continue: "Chen Zhi is cunning, and he has an external response, it is estimated that Chen ...... It is estimated that it was in collusion with many comrades that he was able to escape. He finally had a trace of sense, he wanted to say that it was the Chen family who helped him, but then realized that if the Chen family was involved now, he would lose the opportunity to act step by step, and there was no way out at all, and the nature of the whole thing would change.
This is like the court inspectors, who first aim at small officials and small officials, step by step, and finally pry down the entire wall, which is a method of struggle that is small and broad.
"There is no basis for words, but there is evidence?" Liu Yang was unmoved, looking businesslike.
"Yes," Bai Qing pointed to the people around him, "We are all witnesses, then Chen Zhi first paralyzed us with words, and after leaving, he set fire to the situation, and even his subordinates were ambushed outside, answering him to leave, and asking the county lieutenant to administer justice for us!" He bowed and bowed, his tone sincere.
This is talking nonsense with open eyes, there are many loopholes in it, but sometimes, whether a thing is punctured or not, the key is to look at the person who says it and the person who listens, not the thing itself.
When the other stall owners heard this, they were so reluctant, and several of them had a heart-to-heart to argue, but when they thought of Bai Qing's appearance just now, they didn't want to offend him now, and finally looked at each other, and five people came forward and said: "The fire was too big just now, I didn't see it clearly, now my chest is tight and panting, eighty percent of them are choking on cigarettes, it's uncomfortable, I have to go back to see the doctor first, County Lieutenant Liu, I'll leave first." ”
Bai Qing looked at it, his mind was a little clearer, he just inhaled the breath of the open fire sac, and saw that Qingyuanzhuang was ruined, he was angry and angry, his thoughts were confused, and he was a little clear at the moment, but the words had already been spoken, and he couldn't change his words immediately, looked up at Liu Yang, suddenly gritted his teeth, and said: "County Lieutenant Liu, this matter is not small today, how much silver taels have been spent on my building, County Lieutenant, you must also know that the people involved in it must always ask clearly." ”
When the five stall owners who wanted to leave heard it, they were not happy, but they didn't dare to say more in front of Liu Yang, they just looked at Bai Qing.
Liu Yang narrowed his eyes, looked at the letter, looked at everyone again, and finally thought of the gossip he heard about Yang County's order.
"It's all a mess, what does this Bai Qing rely on? If he didn't rely on it, he would definitely not do such a thing, and even if he asked, it wouldn't make a difference. ”
As soon as he thought of this, he said expressionlessly: "What the Bai master said is good, you guys have to go to the yamen to ask about the situation, and Chen Zhi...... Zhang Hu, you take someone to Chen's house, inform Brother Chen Chi first, and then ask Chen Qigongzi to go to the court, and I will report to the county order. ”
"No!" Zhang Hu, the soap subordinate, took the order, glanced at Bai Qing and the others, and turned to leave.
A few stall owners who wanted to get out looked at it and were about to say more, Liu Yang waved his hand and said: "Wait until you get to the yamen to argue, a few are witnesses, and they will definitely have to go." ”
"Yes, we brothers, advance and retreat together." Bai Qing also took a step forward, glanced at a few people, and secretly warned, but with little effect, those people were not stupid, framing the scholar and coercing the family to repay the debt, it was not a concept, and he didn't want to be contaminated at all, so Bai Qing was anxious.
Liu Yang didn't care too much, put the painting away, sent it to the yamen first, and then said lightly: "Everyone, you wait to go to the yamen first, and when Chen Zhi arrives, he confronts him in the hall, I just don't know where he is at this time, I will take the first step." ”
After speaking, he left, without stopping, according to Liu Yang's statement, he had to go to report to the county order first, but this time he did not go to the county yamen, but spared a circle and went to Liu's mansion first.
"The fourth master is here." The servants and maids in the house saluted when they saw Liu Yang.
Liu Yang just nodded in a hurry, and soon the chief steward of the Liu family greeted him, and when he saw Liu Yang's appearance, he knew that there was something urgent.
"Fourth master, do you want to call the old lady?"
"Hmm."
After speaking, the two walked briskly.
At this time, it was late at night, and most of the rooms in the house were not bright, but when he passed by Liu Gang's residence, he saw that there were still lights inside, and he could vaguely see a figure writing at the desk, and he couldn't help nodding silently.
The steward watched from the sidelines and said with a smile: "The fifth young master has worked very hard in the past two days, saying that he has learned from listening to Chen Gongzi's words, and he has repeatedly deduced something. He knew that the fourth master was very optimistic about Liu Gang, so he took the opportunity to pat the two of them on the back.
When Liu Yang heard this, he was puzzled.
Chen Gongzi's words? Which Chen Gongzi? Could it be the son of a prince of the pre-Qin dynasty?
He didn't have time to dig into it right now, so he just nodded his head.
Soon, in the single courtyard in the backyard, Liu Yang saw Mrs. Liu, who was sleepy-eyed, and hurriedly confessed: "It's a sin to quarrel with my father to sleep peacefully." Originally, this matter should be discussed with his eldest brother, but the uncle of the Liu family also went to Liuxian, and the one who spoke at home counted, that is, Mrs. Liu.
"Don't come to this set, you came to me at this time, what happened?" Mrs. Liu had a straight face and a serious look.
Liu Yang didn't dare to delay, he hurried to the yamen, so he briefly talked about the matter of Qingyuanzhuang, and finally asked: "Father, how should we deal with this matter?" In the previous matter of Xu Fang, Yang County Ling had the intention to suppress the Chen family, and if Bai Qing was added, it might really be possible. ”
"Hehe," Mrs. Liu sneered, "What kind of thing is Bai Qing, a businessman who runs a gambling house, what a bad reputation, how can my Liu family be in the company of such people?" That is, such businessmen who fall into the eyes of money will think that as long as the price of the world's affairs is stated, they can bargain, and disaster is not far away. ”
"You can't say that." When Liu Yang heard this, there was a cold sweat on his back, he should go down to the mine for the benefit of listening to his father's words, did he approve of digging the corner of the Chen family?
"Why can't you say that?" Liu Taigong still had a serious face, "Bai Qing and other people, I don't know how many I have seen, I think everything can be valued, I don't understand the meaning of virtue at all, he thinks that someone in the family can become a family?" Joke! With his casinos, within three generations, there is no hope of entering the product! Stretch out, how many times have I told you, the virtuous are the original, and the rich are the end. ”
Liu Yang hurriedly admitted his mistake, but then reminded vaguely: "However, no matter what Bai Qing is, if he dares to do this, he must have something to rely on, and maybe he can use it." ”
A sly smile appeared in Taigong Liu's old-fashioned face: "Stretch out, you still don't understand, people like Bai Qing think that everything can be dredged with profit, so he dares to do nothing, but he doesn't understand that some things can't be dredged by interests!" Besides, Chen Zhi's son is not simple, Bai Qing forced him in the past, he didn't respond, it was dormant, and now he is no longer hidden, he must find someone to sacrifice the flag. ”
Liu Yang hesitated for a moment, and finally asked, "Then what should I do?" And the things about the mines......"
"You just take care of business," Mrs. Liu shook his head, "As for the mine, it was provoked by the county order, and my Liu family gave him a face, it doesn't mean that he has to get into trouble with the Chen family, after Bai Qing's incident, you will know what to do, go ahead." ”
………………
On the other side, outside Xu Zhi's house, Chen Zhizheng said goodbye.
"Thank you for your hospitality, students must remember Xu Gong's teachings, it's not too early, and please take a break."
After some polite words, Chen Zhi led Chen Wu out of the three old mansions and walked along the alley.
Because it was late, there were no pedestrians around, according to the government's regulations, the people were not allowed to leave home easily at night, and the children of the family must be in charge of the lamp when they went out, so when they left Shulinzhai, Chen Zhi asked Chen Wu to bring a lantern.
As he walked, he thought about Qingyuanzhuang.
"I used the prescription of my previous life to prepare an open fire sac, itchy and numb, the open flame sac can accelerate the fire, and the itchy numbness will itch when it is stained, and it will last for half an hour......"
It turned out that Chen Zhi explained that the medicinal materials purchased by Chen Fu were for the purpose of preparing open fire sacs and itchy numbness.
The open flame sac is colorless and tasteless, and is made of a variety of non-toxic medicinal materials, once it is prepared, the effective time is very short, and it will be invalid if it is not used within twelve hours, so it is configured on the same day and used on the same day.
Itchy and scattered is something handed over to the Kong Nursing Hospital, which is used to deal with the Bai family's nursing home, and it will spread out as soon as it is thrown and fall on the pursuers, making it itchy and difficult to travel, which not only helps Kong Li to block the pursuit, but also makes it convenient for Chen Zhi to leave.
"Qingyuanzhuang is a wooden pile frame earthen wall, all of which are flammable, five steps and a lamp, lanterns are full of buildings, this is all open flames, I took the money over, did not receive an IOU, a lottery, ninety percent of the side effects should be on the silver cake, plus an open fire bag, this is ninety into nine."
Wooden, lamps, combustion, but the side effects don't hurt.
All are ready, and with the transfer of the silver taels, the chances stack.
"After this busy circle, you should improve your reputation as soon as possible, so as to warn the state and county to pay attention to that Wang Mi ......"
With this thought, the master and servant walked out of the street, and suddenly there was a chaotic sound of footsteps, and they saw many people running and hurrying, shouting "water" and "fire" running in one direction.
"What's going on?" Chen Wu was dumbfounded, as if he had come to another world, just now it was a silent alley, and in a blink of an eye it was a chaotic street, ice and fire.
Chen Zhi stopped and looked in one direction.
At the end of the spectrum, around the corner of the street, several men and women who looked like beggars were observing the chaotic crowd, one of them lying on the ground, holding a pen, writing something.
Suddenly, one of them noticed Chen Zhi's gaze, patted his companions beside him, and several of them whispered a few words before leaving in a hurry.
"Young Master, what's wrong?"
"Nothing." Chen Zhi retracted his gaze, and doubts appeared in his heart.
"Those men looked down-and-out and ragged, but they were full of faces and strong physiques, not beggars, but spies. This is strange, in the previous life, the warlords were divided, and it was not strange to send spies to each other, but now it is also a peaceful world, and the world is unified, who sent spies to Pengcheng to investigate? ”
