Hu Ran said angrily: "How can this be reasonable, are you doubting this official? ”

Although his heart was empty, he still pretended that nothing had happened. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info and he also pretended to be angry at Li Hengbin's words.

Li Hengbin handled things, he didn't leak, he knocked Hu Ran, of course he had to give him some face, and suddenly smiled: "Master Hu misunderstood, the lower official said that the soldiers who investigated the government office, but he didn't say that he wanted to check you, don't be nervous." If you can guarantee yourself, can you still guarantee that the soldiers of your government will not make mistakes? It should be checked. ”

Hu Ran breathed a sigh of relief and nodded, "It's pretty much the same." ”

"I came here today, in fact, there is nothing else, I just want to find out how the case is investigated, this is a big case after all, and it must not be sloppy."

Li Hengbin said: "Master Hu, this is what only happened this morning, and now there is not even a day, how can it be so fast, you better go back and rest, and when there is news, I will tell you as soon as possible, how?" ”

has been caught in the braids, where can Li Hengbin still sleep.

Standing up, Hu Ran hesitated for a moment and said, "Okay, then the official is waiting for your good news." ”

After speaking, he reluctantly walked out of the courtyard.

I wanted to inquire about the progress of the case, but I didn't find anything, and this night was destined to be an inevitable night.

After Hu Ran left, Li Hengbin sneered: "I've never seen you so sad about the case, don't confess yourself; It seems that the guess is correct, the most important thing to check is you! ”

Before this, Li Hengbin had also suspected Hu Ran, but he was only suspicious, and he didn't dare to blatantly investigate before there was no evidence, because once Hu Ran was wronged, Hu Ran was dissatisfied, and everyone's faces were not good-looking. And now, Hu Ran is impatient to go to the house to inquire about the news, which is enough to show that Hu Ran is inseparable from the affairs of Haoyue Restaurant. Maybe... The whole thing was done by Hu Ran, and Hu Ran had a motive to kill.

.............

Since talking to Luo Yi that day, many grain merchants in Huangshi and Jiangnan have tried their best to collect grain, and in just a few days, they have gathered more than 100,000 grains, all of which are the existing grain in Wuyang City.

The grain target given by Luo Yi is 180,000, which is 80,000 short of the prescribed number.

In the past few days, Huang Shi and others have stretched out their hands hundreds of miles away, used all the resources they can use, and transferred grain to Wuyang City overnight.

In the blink of an eye, the time set by Luo Yi has arrived...

Huang Shi took the account book, on behalf of all the grain merchants, and personally went to the Zuixianju Restaurant.

Luo Yi also asked people to prepare money and let Zhao Wenxian be in charge of the transaction, but Luo Yi didn't seem to pay much attention to this matter, and only sent Zhao Wenxian to deal with it.

Luo Yi's mind is all about Hu Ran, and the 300,000 taels of silver are the big deal.

"Lord Zhao, this is the bill, we have collected 180,000 after this period of hard work, you can see it."

Zhao Wenxian picked up the bill and looked at it, and said with a smile: "Okay, it's good, with these grains, we haven't come in vain." ”

"President Huang, where are all your grains now? You can transport it here first, and I will arrange for someone to transport it to Chang'an. ”

"Not busy, not busy..."

Huang Shi laughed twice and asked, "Dare to ask your lord, what about the money to buy these grains... I don't know when I'm going to give it to us? You also know that we are all grain merchants, and we need money to turnover. ”

"Hehe... Look at me, I almost forgot about this important thing. ”

Zhao Wenxian took out five very delicate pieces of paper from his cuffs, with some images drawn on them, and many characters, just like the silver tickets in the Qing Dynasty, basically without much provenance.

Handing it to Huangshi, Zhao Wenxian said: "These are five silver tickets, a total of 50,000 silver, which are issued by the State Chamber of Commerce, and you can get these five silver tickets no matter which State Chamber of Commerce you go to." ”

Huang Shi still knows very well about the affairs of the State Chamber of Commerce, because their grain merchants have also invested a lot of money in it, and they also have more than a dozen silver tickets in their hands, and they have taken out silver tickets before, and they have indeed taken them out.

Seeing the five chapters of the silver ticket, Huang Shi smiled, held the silver ticket in his arms, and said: "Okay, Lord Zhao is really happy, then I, Huang, will not break my promise, and the day after tomorrow at the latest, I will be able to faint all the food and come to the Drunken Immortal Residence." ”

The two discussed properly and were very satisfied, the grain merchant asked for money, Zhao Wenxian asked for grain, and each took what he needed.

Li Hengbin focused on suspecting Hu Ran, and sent a number of spies to infiltrate the mansion, and took the horizontal knife to Hu Ran's mansion, so that the people in the mansion could confirm it repeatedly to see whose knife it was.

Although the dead person in Haoyue Restaurant was not cut by the knife, the horizontal knife was left at the scene of the murder after all, and it can be said that it has nothing to do with the person who overturned the case.

As soon as it was dawn, Li Hengbin came with someone and the knife to let the people in the house confirm it.

Others don't know, but Hu Ran is very clear, the knife is his, but it hasn't been used for a long time, so others don't know, but it's hard to guarantee that there are not one or two who know, if it leaks out, the consequences will be unimaginable.

After thinking about it, Hu Ran finally walked out of the back door and went straight to the Drunken Immortal Residence to find Luo Yi.

In the drunken immortal residence, Luo Yi has already taken You Yan here, eating and drinking all day long, so uncomfortable, Zhao Wenxian and Zhao Wenyong take care of the food, Luo Yi and You Yan, but pay attention to the Wuyang County Government.

"Master Hou, the festival has made the lord here."

"Let him in."

"Yes."

The little guy who reported the news went out of the house and invited Hu Ran outside the restaurant in.

Luo Yi asked You Yan to stay in another room, while he waited in the room.

Soon, Hu Ran hurriedly walked in, and knelt down as soon as he entered the room: "Master Hou, help." ”

"Master Hu, why do you make such a big gift, please get up."

Luo Yi hurriedly helped Hu Ran up.

I can't imagine that a dignified festival envoy actually knelt down with a marquis who only has a false name, but I am afraid that it is also the only one in the world.

Hu Ran stood up and said with a sad face: "Master Hou, that kid Li Hengbin has already found me on the head with a horizontal knife, if he continues to check like this, sooner or later he will find me." ”

The two sat down.

Luo Yi poured a cup of tea for Hu Ran and said, "Didn't Zhao Wenxian tell you, 300,000... If you can take it out, I'll help you, if you can't take it out, I can't help it. ”

"Master Hou, didn't you say you don't like money?"

"I mean, 50,000 taels is not rare, 300,000 taels... What do you think. ”

Hu Ran understood that Luo Yi had confiscated the 50,000 taels before, not because he was too high, but because he disliked too little.

300,000, it's easy to say, if you really want to take it out, it's more painful than cutting meat, how many people in the world can afford it, and a few people are willing to take it.

Hu Ran felt very embarrassed, if he wanted to be reluctant, Zhao Wenxian had already agreed when he talked to him a few days ago. Although the situation is urgent now, if he really wants to take out 300,000 yuan, he has to think about it.
