Chapter Eighty-Six: Yu Lei's First Mystery
"Good fellow, this guy can actually take care of the rupee." Wang Hengyue also smashed his tongue again and again.
At the end of the Qing Dynasty, the minting of silver dollars was the most lucrative, and the general office of a silver dollar bureau, as long as he was ruthless, it was effortless to make a million taels of silver a year.
How much profit does a businessman make in a hard year? You have to take risks again, but the general office of the Silver Dollar Bureau has made money while sitting, and you can't envy it.
The more Wang Hengyue thought about it, the more unwilling he became, jumping up and down for tens of thousands of taels of silver, begging his grandfather to tell his grandmother, but how free and easy is it for people to earn silver here?
"But this man doesn't have a very good reputation." Li Yifeng shook his head: "This person is the best woman, since he has some money, he often looks for beauty in the market, and when he sees a beautiful woman with a good look, he asks someone to make peace, no matter how high the value is, he will also arrange errands for the woman's family." He relied on his wealth and power to marry the woman who offended him and then abandon him, and wantonly insulted the woman of a good family. He forcibly buys the people's daughters, usually only after three or five days or a month or two, and as soon as the novelty is gone, he will give hundreds of taels of silver and let them remarry. ”
Wang Hengyue's brows furrowed when he heard this, and Xu Mu also said sarcastically:
"How much more? Zhou Baoliang once passed by a tailor shop, and saw a slender woman at the door who was very eye-catching, so he stared at it a few more times, and after the woman realized it, she hurriedly closed the door and entered the house. Zhou Baoliang sent someone to propose to his father for a huge amount of money to take him as a concubine, and the woman's father agreed when he saw the money. Zhou Baoliang chose to marry this woman back. In the new house, he drank wine himself, and then let the bride ** lie on the bed, and let the servant hold a large candle on the side. He paced back and forth at the newcomer, laughed loudly, and said, 'You didn't let me see it a few days ago, but I wanted to see it.' Now what else can you do to stop me? After saying that, he pushed the door and left, went to spend the night in another concubine's room, and the next day he divorced the woman. ”
Wang Hengyue was a little annoyed when he heard this, but he didn't make a sound.
Yu Lei, who had not spoken, suddenly said: "These are okay, he still has the most shameless move, he marries a concubine everywhere he goes, and after he gets tired of it, he lets his prime minister play lightly, so his prime ministers miss his 'kindness', are very loyal to him, and there is no one who does not work hard." ”
Wang Hengyue nodded silently, stood up and walked out. The old bustard scolded the turtle boy, and the turtle boy scolded the turtle slave, and no one noticed them.
"It's just that now he's not as powerful as he used to be." Xu Mu said as he walked out with the adult: "This person is very good at business, but he can't deal with officials. Zhou Baoliang only has Xiliang in his eyes, and there is no one else. The issuance of rupees is such a profitable thing, but it fell into the hands of Zhou Baoliang, and he refused to take out a penny to fight others, Zhao Erfeng was helpless to hinder Xiliang's face, but now that Xiliang is gone, Zhao Erxun is the governor of Sichuan, where is Zhou Baoliang's majesty? casually found an excuse to remove his official mission and sent him back to Leshan. If it weren't for the killing of Xiliang, it wouldn't look good on Xiliang's face, otherwise"
Walking out, Yu Lei suddenly stopped and looked at Wang Hengyue deeply: "My lord, I beg you for something." ”
As soon as Zhou Baoliang entered the Lechun Hall, Wang Hengyue noticed that Yu Lei was not quite right, and stood up and asked, "You are finally willing to say it?" Do you have a grudge against Zhou Baoliang? ”
"Yes, Shengren and Zhou Baoliang have an enmity." Yu Lei didn't hide it at all this time: "The student originally had a cousin, and she was the best to treat the student, but later she was favored by Zhou Baoliang and forcibly accepted, and after she got tired of playing, she was rewarded by Zhou Baoliang to her subordinates, and the cousin was humiliated and hanged." The student is always thinking about helping his cousin get revenge. ”
Seeing that Wang Hengyue didn't speak, Yu Lei continued: "Back then, Zhou Baoliang had money and power, and the students could only wait. Now that Zhou Baoliang has lost power, the student thinks that the opportunity has come, in addition to revenge, the student can also find a way to help the adult get a large sum of silver from him to repay the adult's kindness! ”
Wang Hengyue just listened to Zhou Baoliang's things, and wanted to rectify him fiercely, but this is not his own territory, and now listening to Yu Lei's words, it seems that he has a way, and he can also make himself a vote.
His eyes rolled, and he smiled and said, "Yu Lei, when you said that you would exchange your life for one merit, this gang took it." Now you want to take revenge on you, and you can get a credit in exchange. ”
"Yes, there is merit to be replaced." Yu Lei didn't think about it, and blurted out.
Wang Hengyue was originally a joke, who would have thought that Yu Lei really had credit to exchange?
Yu Lei looked at the brothers, and then invited Wang Hengyue to a distance, and after the brothers could no longer hear the sound, he said, "Do you remember the English Hercules Opiyin?" ”
Wang Hengyue suddenly realized, he felt that there was a name for himself in this Ao Piyin matter, and with Yu Lei's strange words, he vaguely guessed that this matter was related to Yu Lei at that time, and now it is really the case.
I only heard Yu Lei say:
"That time the adult sent the adult to Shi Fengrong to send silver, and happened to live in an inn with Opiyin, I heard that Opiyin is a strong man, and he wants to go to Chengdu first, and then go to Shanghai, and the student knew at that time that this is the best opportunity to enhance the reputation of the adult. So out of the two hundred taels of silver given to Shi Fengrong, he took out one hundred taels for the translator and asked him to encourage Opiyin to go to Rong County first. ”
"Dog, you really touch Lao Tzu's silver!" Wang Hengyue scolded at once: "No wonder Shi Fengrong gave Lao Tzu such a bunch of broken weapons, no wonder he refused to send troops in Tibetan Province!" If you are a dog, you are not afraid that Lao Tzu will be beaten to death by Opiyin. ”
As soon as he heard Yu Lei draw his own silver at this time, he naturally blamed Yu Lei for the tattered weapons and his refusal to send troops.
Yu Lei didn't argue: "The adults won't lose, because after Opiyin arrived in Rong County and was going to fight with the adults, the student sneaked into his inn early the next morning and put the 'cockscomb root' in the breakfast he ate." ”
Wang Hengyue was stunned: "What is this?" ”
Yu Lei smiled slightly: "This is an aphrodisiac, the surname is extremely strong, when the time comes, if you can't vent, you will be dizzy and weak, and you will have no strength in your body."
Wang Hengyue understood, this time he completely understood!
It's no wonder that Opiyin's fist on his body will be weak enough, and he has been holding on, no wonder Opiyin will suddenly stumble on his feet at the critical moment of death, almost fall, and finally he doesn't even have the strength to fight.
Everything is Yu Lei's ghost behind the scenes!
This mystery has finally been solved, but how many things does Yu Lei not know?
"My lord, is this a credit?"
Wang Hengyue glared at this subordinate fiercely.
"My lord, the living have never forgotten what my cousin looked like when she died, so please become a living member no matter what!"
Wang Hengyue suddenly laughed:
"You dog Yu Lei, Lao Tzu will fulfill your heart, you go and get a lot of silver for Lao Tzu!"
